"Off of the Cameo album Word Up!(1986)" . . . maybe the ORIGINAL Cameo version was off the Cameo album but if anyone tries to find THIS version on THAT album . . . well . . . sheesh . . . that AINT gonna happen!
Fuckin ay!! This so rocks!!! Best version ever - great vocal, blistering guitar, in fact everything about it makes me wanna jump around the room. The absolute in cool.
In my opinion, this version and Korn's version is pretty much the same. The only difference is the singers. Either way, this song ROCKS and was the only good part about Barb Wire.
I like Korn's one, but I think this one has so much more energy and variety in it, its got a lot more texture and I just prefer it in general, but I really do like how dark and twisted Jonathan Davis' voice is.
@yngwiesviking this. The two versions are better for their own reasons, small and big (like at 1:55, in the KoЯn cover, there is an echo of Up that sounds really cool, and other small stuff like that) so its hard to actually decide which is better.
I got many many many many.... versions of "Word up" (I'm a freak, I'm collectin all versions of "Word up" xD) - but THIS is the best one ^^ Thank you so much for uploading it =)
both gun and korn cover this song well but be reminded that larry blackman and thomas jenkins of cameo wrote the music. give cameo the respect and appreciation they deserve.
@miguelblakeON12 hell yeah! fuck the thumbs down on you! i like korn, but cameos original version is 100 times better than any of the covers of it. respect the fuckin' origins.
the cameo version (and korn) voise is i dont know creppy or something but whatever i like this 1 better or mabey its just that i listend to gun first :/
*rolls up eyes and does a face fault * I have been looking for this version EVERYWHERE, but I couldn't remember the name of the group for NOTHIN'! LMAO! I'm thinking it's some long name, but it's "Gun"!! So simple! :P Well I've found it so now I can jam!
Thanks so much for posting this! I love the original just as much, but I'm a rock kinda girl so I love this one more :) *rocks on*
Great guitar arrangement. :-) Great singing also. Love the way the snare sounds like a gun-shot too. hahahaa I'm going to look out for more by Gun now.
this one's good but i think i like the KoRn version a bit better, but this one is better than the origanal (just my opinion this is still a really good song no matter who does it lolz)
I actually think that BOTH this and KoRn's version are good. But I think that this one capture's the essence of the original Cameo version. In other words, this one stays true to the original, while giving it that Hard Rock feel to it. Korn, however, is more shorter and all you hear more is the bass riff and Jon singing. But, in other words, its just not really done right. But all in all, I still like both versions of this song.
Awesome!! Better than the Korn version indeed!!
