System of a Down - When the smoke is going down (cover)

[scava21]

Darons voice is absolutely amazing..this gives me chills 

[artistim]

@scava21 I don't have to prove anything to you, or anyone else. 10000 views, most of them from people that came to this video to hear a cover of a scorpions song. A cover which was slaughtered. the guitarist doesn't even sound like he knows where the notes are. Sorry to have upset you, but doing a piss-poor effort at someone's song is just killing time, Time that you paid for, time that most people would prefer to listen to music in key, in time and in tune.Piss-poor fashion rock.

[scava21]

@artistim Thats the thing. ITS A COVER. He is not trying to out do them. He may just like the song enough to want to play it for his fans. I see no one booing in the crowd. Do you?

[artistim]

@scava21 Of course no-one is booing they are all there to see the band, to hear the songs. A "Cover-version" is generally accepted to be a version of a classic song usually performed with the artiste's "sound". Neither is apparent here. If the title of the video said "Out-of-tune version" i wouldn't have bothered looking. Murdering two bars of a song does not make it a cover version, anymore than you singing it in the shower makes it one. Usually bands finish songs they start too.

[TheGostables]

@100rodeostyle I wouldn't say so.

[artistim]

I came to this video to see what was described on other pages as "moving" & "classic". Thought i was gonna see and hear something special. This has to be worst cover I've ever heard of an absolute classic song. I've no doubt they're good at playing the music that has got them famous and that their fans love, but this is fucking terrible, I've played better at jam sessions. without practicing for years. Someone should show the guitarist where the fucking notes are too. A beautiful song wasted.

[rockerdude711a]

@artistim 

[scava21]

@artistim when I see you I will believe you. It is easier to be said then done. I dont see you famous and out there with 10000 plus views. So try to do better then this and get more views I WANT TO SEE YOU DO IT.

[Cagnolina2]

OHHHHHHH! TUTTI CANTANTI PROFESSIONISTI QUI, GIUSTO?? Mah, è così facile giudicare senza sapere.

[ulizinho]

are they from Greece, Malaka ?

[Lendjr]

It's just first verse :D ... he's not even close to Klaus Meines amazing voice. Daron is good but he's not better than original ... no one is.

[majosoadicta]

Stupid people !! Daron is the best

[noyabizzle]

it fuckin pisses me off when the crowd tries to clap to the beat.... always a guaranteed suck fest.

[caceteirooooo]

i like SOAD... but this... at least with an acoustic guitar... could be....

But SCORPIONS ALL THE WAY FTW!

[lagoguitarofan]

[Potogenich]

офигенный отрывок ,жалко что не ихнего сочинения а скорпионс

[sweguitarist97]

way better than scorpions

[thisisparto]

Great SOAD made a good tribute to great Scorpions!! ^^

[naro818]

The people who say that Scoripons version is better are idiots...

No shit its better, Daron only covered a small snipbit of the song to pay tribute to the band, not to out do them, dumbasses...

[davekeeley1]

daron for president !

[channesw]

1:00 nothing special. just shavo doing a regular bassrape.

fuck techno/jumpstyle-faggots constantly screaming about bass. this is LITTERAL bass rape :>

[XDFunnyFreak]

he cannot sing and the guitar is horrible... i prefer SCORPIONS!!!!!

[XxLoStPrOfEtSxX]

[litsakiddavidson]

[hamsharo92]

this is bullshit and this singing really sucks .. Don't try to sing Scorpions songs cuz Scorpions are fuckin gr8

[dvdddrg]

Fucking love you soad, you´re gr8!!! I´m glad you like Scorps!

[ni4ni07]

[doubledipedchip]

[rastafaridermassive]

[yoanfeyt]

@J33zu5 scorpion

[katerinoula1996]

That song is very beautiful and one of the best ballads of Scorpions.......The ''System of Down''did that song to be stupid...and silly ....

[doubledipedchip]

@katerinoula1996 if u knew anything about soad you would know that Daron likes all kinds of music

[Superman516]

@katerinoula1996 You seem UPSET.

[WeAreForTheSystem]

@katerinoula1996 yeah, no. fuck you. why? because FUCK YOU, thats why.

[oOsk8isnocrimeOo]

[LuckyDiceProductions]

[sotimalli]

[DimmeDriver]

My ears are bleeding...

[EverlastingFellatio]

@DimmeDriver you couldnt take the epicness?

[DimmeDriver]

@EverlastingFellatio Ever heard the original?

[EverlastingFellatio]

@DimmeDriver normally i would argree with you on original being always better. but this song, as well as their other covers, are badass. nuff said.

[angelcry69]

MASSACRE !!!!!!!!! ZERO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[WoWoGi]

The short part of the song from Daron is 1000 times better then the orginal....

[mits0takhs17]

@WoWoGi Have you ever listen to the original?

[grindmaggots666]

thanks you. this song is great, finnaly, i have wondered what this songs name was :P i thought it ws maybe something he just jammed on conserts from 01, but i see it`s a cover now. gotta hear the original.

[halfNERD17]

[handmiadenofgod]

For me, System represents an entire era in my life of heightened political, social, and philosophical awareness.

[Mysterionxx]

@LordMofu thx :)

[Despair84]

I wish he' would do the full version  ^^

[softballandy]

Why the hell isn´t here an automatic replaying....

[debateSlayer]

Ok this should clarify it for all of you.

Serj Tankian is ethnicically ARMENIAN, from LEBANON, lebanon has a MASSIVE armenian population. John Dolmayan is ALSO an Ethnic ARMENIAN from LEBANON.

Shavo Odadjian is an ethnic Armenian born in Armenia/from Armenia proper.

Daron Malakian was born in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA (cali) to ethnically Armenian parents who are from Iraq (father) and Iran (mother). I am an Armenian from Iran. Armenian diaspora is far and wide since the escape of genocide

[worldwidelive94]

ES una cancion de Scorpions

[lov3andr33a]

he's amazing

[whiston532]

@NZF3arZiegler I think Serj and John are from Afghanistan or one of those countries, Daron is from Hollywood and Shavo is from Armenia.

[hotmetalmulisha]

@whiston532 whiston serj shavo and john were born in armenia daron was born in california

[theshantanator]

@hotmetalmulisha

john and serj were born in lebanon/ they all grew up in LA though

[NZF3arZiegler]

@whiston532 Serj is definately from armenia, and i still think john is but im not 100% sure. i honestly doubt afghanistan

[malakasofdeath]

@NZF3arZiegler Serj Daron and Shabo are from Armenia and Jhon from America..

[NZF3arZiegler]

@whiston532 thats actually probably right. i think i heard them talk about it in an interview

[manueljfv]

You say Justin Bieber-I say ACDC

You say Miley Cyrus-I say Led Zepplin

You say T-Pain-I say System of a Down

You say Flowers-I say Metallica

You say Pink-I say Iron Maiden

You say Hip Hop-i say shut the fuck up

You say Pop-I scream Metal!

You say Hannah Montana-i fucking punch you in the face

92% of teenagers have turned to HipHop and Pop.If you are part of the 8% that still listen to real music,copy and paste this message to another 5 videos.DONT LET THE SPIRIT OF ROCKDIE

[NZF3arZiegler]

the only one of them not born in Armenia was Daron I believe. He was born in California

[xxByoGxx]

@NZF3arZiegler hollywood to be more specefic ;)

[MrRAMMSTEINER95]

@69DARONSFAN69 John, Shavo, Serj and Daron are all Armenians, just wren`t born there

[DimebagDarrellCFH33]

@MrRAMMSTEINER95 shavo was born in Armenia. he lived there for about 3 years before moving to America

[MrRAMMSTEINER95]

@DimebagDarrellCFH33 hmkay^^

[MrRAMMSTEINER95]

@69DARONSFAN69 Daron, Shavo, Serj and John are all from Armenia, just weren`t born there

[KonstrukcjaBanana]

IT'S FUCKIN' AMAZING!

[MegaFuckyouforever]

Serj's Voice beats Darons but 2ether they are like perfect

[TMLFC]

Daron can sing any song he likes cause he's a fucking GOD, just like the other band members. Damn

[thajmaj]

@TMLFC serj sings fucking good 2!!!

[TMLFC]

@thajmaj Of course, just replying to someone about Daron. Like I said. SOAD is a band of gods

[xaladolokiyo]

must love daron's vocals

[billanger]

Learn how to play the song, loser. This sounds like complete shit.

[coldmirrorssynchros1]

@billanger

Jaja , Meister . Deine Mutter auch .. -_-

[thomasscorp]

@rasheedald bastard...fuck off........

[TOOLosophy]

I think no one was expecting this...not even his band members...Daron was so fucking stoned at this concert ..."Just like a thousand nights before" :)))

They're so fucking insane...I miss 'em, even with poor guitar playing :D

[eramir228]

@TOOLosophy D: But daron's fucking awesome

[thomasscorp]

[SerjTankianism]

@thomasscorp Die Motherfucker!

[thomasscorp]

@SerjTankianism son of a bitch.....fuck you....only the scorpions must sing this great song...not SOAD...lick my balls

[SerjTankianism]

@thomasscorp Cute Litle girl!! You are so sweet. Scorpions are motherfucker. They are such a shit just like you. So its good you listen to 'em. Go on.

[thomasscorp]

@SerjTankianism die bastard

[SerjTankianism]

@thomasscorp *Kiss* Love you lil' Girl

[Browny42468]

@SerjTankianism Hula is not possible to resolve conflict calmly and intelligently here?!

And if The Scorpions (which is a great band) are so bad, Why did "system has a cover of one of their songs ?

(I'm a french teenager so if my engish is bad, it's normal)

[300daysandnights]

@SerjTankianism dude, you can barely speak english. you have serj tankian's name but your hating on other bands that were influential to them. weak bro.

[1234as1]

0:01 Daron looks stoned out of his fucking mind

[CuteMetalBoy]

@1234as1 he is looking CROWD and he see RAINBOW :D

[NE669PORJECT]

shit thisi is shit...the guitar part is a shit !!!! bad bad.......

[giannisgtpomg3lol]

@NE669PORJECT agree. good voice but the drugs are playing guitar

[NE669PORJECT]

@giannisgtpomg3lol drugs or not....this is a shit !!!!! Scorpions ballads are wonderful not this shit !!



[phelp18]

klaus is the only one who can sing this master piece.

[Killerrado]

For those who have wrote that Daron sings this better than Klaus Meine listen to that one where it says Lyrics. Klaus Meine lost his voice complitly and could't even talk. So he went to two throatoperation and the doctor even told him to change his career. So the one with lyrics is with his original voice. (Because the song was made in 70s). So listen to it.

[virtuose64]

Gruselig, sowas

gehört angezeigt. Gesang schief, Gitarre unsauber gespielt und hackt. Eine Schülerband spielt es besser

[lolilolimolimoli]

@virtuose64 du vollpfosten man ejj des is life darons gitarre hatte nen problem war kaputt deswegen klang die etwas beschissen 2. daron hat ne gute stimme nur life is es halt schwierig jeden fucking ton richtig zu treffen asi ejj und du bist auch noch so blöd kligst das video an um son scheiss zu hinter lassen geh kakken

[Killerrado]

Why are all writing abot Metallica and AC/DC when this is a Scorpions cover?

[LucarioForm]

was it raining, or were they just really sweaty?

[DownMushroom]

0:32 eeew look at his mouth lol, his saliva is clinging to his lips

[mdqn]

sorry but this sucks its fail face it.Want some good music well listen to Metallica Led Zeppelin Scorpions Maiden AC/DC

[yamaha85number17]

@mdqn nah not really he just tried his thing don't diss it it isn't that bad.

[morphix66]

@mdqn don't you have a comma on your keyboard?

[mdqn]

@morphix66 dont worry i have ;] 

[TheGreyestWhale]

Okay, first off Metallica sucks, their lyrics arent good, and they are total butt rock, their singer is a fag, AC/DC writes the same song over and over, the Scorpions are great, Maiden is okay, and System of a Down is amazing, and if you cant see that,then you are an idiot, and do not know good music.

[mdqn]

@TheGreyestWhale hahaha that was the funniest thing i have heard today.Dude grow some balls.SOAD is new to metal.How can u call Metallica fags sucks have you ever heard To live is to die And Justice for all.Well it was ment for people whit brains only they can understand the lyrics.Fucking Prick go listen to some good shit.

[TheGreyestWhale]

Haha, your an idiot, I`ve listened to that song and the worst part about metallica is the singer, if they lost James Hettfeild, then they might be good, and if you wanna talk about lyrics System has some of the most deep lyrics around, and if your going to argue, dont insult me on a personal level, were talking about music not me. And if your gonna say their lyrics are for people with wit, then you are wrong, seeing as you like them, and there was a tons of spelling errors in your sentences.

[mdqn]

@TheGreyestWhale I will stop arguing it seems that there is no point.Have a nice day

[TheGreyestWhale]

And it doesnt matter if SOAD is new to metal, it doesn't mean there music isnt better, the fact is Metallica sucks, AC/DC is okay, Scorpions are good, Maidens okay, and SOAD is better than all of those bands.

[tand]

@mdqn I don't even consider System metal. They're hard rock. and to say they suck is being just as ignorant as @TheGreyestWhale is. both bands are good. both band are actually pretty awesome. just because you like one more than the other doesn't mean the other sucks. plus Metallica and Soad are fucking buddies go watch that show they did with Korn. together. on stage. at the same time.

[TheGreyestWhale]

@tand I`m not ignorant, I can listen to a few Metallica song, its just James Hettfield...the way he sings....its repulsive,

[tand]

@TheGreyestWhale Maybe he just has different tastes than you? I personally agree with you that System is better but to say Mettalica sucks... is just ignorant. AC/DC is not my favorite. but they have more money than you and i will ever have and clearly there are way more people who think they rock than people who think they suck. Maiden is awesome. listening wise i think they're too in you're face for my taste but musically they fucking rock! listen to their guitar harmonies!

[TheGreyestWhale]

@tand I love AC/DC I`ve seen them in concert twice, I`ts just they write the same song over and over, but they sound great. But they definitely not the greatest band.

[yoanfeyt]

super mais c de scorpions la vrai



[Swny910]

Why would they cover a song and make it just as bad?

@Swny910 I'LL FIND U IN REAL
