diamond head- am i evil

[Slayedjudas666]

I bet if they would of had more luck with there manager and wouldnt have made so many stupid discisions they would probaly be one of the best metal bands out

And Metallica would have been unknown(atleast to mainstream)

[Nonsensei436]

Why is the tempo on the opening for this version so much faster than the other versions ive heard?

[mandowarrior123]

GUYS! I LOVE METALLICA! BECAUSE THEIR MANY COVERS ALLOWED THE BAND TO REFORM FROM ROYALTIES! we should be mad at diamond head's studio, they should have been advertised and pushed and everything they are as good as iron maiden and in my eyes better!

[insaneclownicp]

yea but there manager and sean(lead singer) held them back ppl saw them as the next lead zeppelin man

[taures17]

both bands are cool wit each other..they even played together on the stage..but i do think am i evil is better wen diamond head does it.

[Morgisakim]

fuck metallica this rules

[Fact1ons]

hell yeah!!!!

[darjac6]

metallica and diamond head gets along very well so why can't their fans?

[slackerzac]

Because people are stupid.

[Purdonnnnn1873]

Much better than Metallica's

[LlamaBaconator]

The vocals of Metallica are better and more rough sounding

[Darien331]

That doesnt make it better. Now shut up, this vid isnt about metallica.

[SayRAHmleh]

XO : )

[inagartenrules]

this is true evil, put to music. ROCK OUT!!!

[DrDevildriver]

So much better than the 'tallica version.

[RingMasterJuggalo36]

yeah the thing is metallicas version i kick ass and rougher but this version is more clean and better sounding & you cant go wrong with the original :D

[TheMiniMuska]

am i eeeeviiiilll? yess i aam.

[luckyluke193]

Maybe the best metal song in the world.

Everythings perfect about it: the intro, the lyrics, the solo, the bass, the drumming, the guitar, the vocals, and of course the killer riff!

Hail Diamond Head true gods of metal

[Muppio]

Amen!

[giomeliti]

for alineto666: the album is not "lightning to the universe"..but "lightning to the nations" ;)

[luckyluke193]

Either Lightning to the Nations or "White Album" but definitely not Lightning to the Universe ^^

yw alineto ;)

[bhindtheseeyes]

My favorite indy wrestler in all the world, Death Falcon Zero, comes out to this song. Perfect into. Love how he works the "Am I evil? Yes I am!" into his schtick. Great song. Great worker.

[SCRIMandBLANK]

WAY better than Metallica. more evil sounding,,,

[funnybone567]

I can just see Satan rising from the ground with the beginning of this song playing

[punkmetalgoth16]

am I evil? Yes I am!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[mastermikeNL]

well it acutally is more like: am i evil? yes i aaaaaaaaaaam!

[lorent123]

or more like : Am I evil? Yeeesssssssss i am!

[SamTalmadge]

no more like AM I EVIIIIIIIIIIIIIL!!!????????/ YES I AAAAAAAAAAMMMMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!

[UrukTheRed]

Lightning To The Universe? Is that a mistake or did some tin-can label actually put out a DH compilation with that name?

[danspx]

this classic kicks metallica even in their 80s glory, the evil sound does not need speed it needs crazyness and steve harris showed it, then it comes speed and all those elements you know from the branches of metal.

[strikerjess]

i like it, but since im a huge metallica fan I have to go with them, besides i like metallica version better

[luckyluke193]

Diamond Head kicks Metallica's ass!

The guitar is far more evil on the original.

Am I evil? Yes I am!

[Havokboy88]

This one, Metallica covered it

[MagnumFIN]

is this live?

[tanyanshadow]

thestaplerisnotatoy just fucked up the all green page of comments....hope your happy man

[metalheadtoki]

is dis da remastered version?

[Unfjun]

what did they do? just put digital reverb on individual tracks?

[HeavyMetalVagabond]

more or less yeh, just to make it sound a bit more evil and dark i spose, the original was quite clean

[Unfjun]

NO more remastering!!!

[sephirothdadark]

their both REALLY good, I'd say tie, I like most of the original better, but you cant argue with the metallica vocals

[hankaligali]

Metallicas version sounds more "Evil" but still this version rocks big time.

[Devinlxc13]

TASTYF'INGRIFF!

[ThEcAnAdIaNeMo]

i honestly think i came when i listened to this

[cmsasuke17]

metallica did a great job for the cover. and its rare to find any band to do well on a cover, most bands do horrible covers and not just this songs but any song. diamond head rulez and the riff here is just plain genius.

[Forrest22x]

Anybody got an MP3 link?

[beahmjacob]

lightning to the nations dude

[huns24]

i played it too

[kulabcdefg]

Where else would he come from? :S

[fishhead013]

this is a good song but i admit Metallicas cover is better than the actual song =-O

[MasterChiefNewb]

yea it suits james voice and its better quality

[huns24]

it is

[MetalUpYourAssFuck]

yeah it's cool but Metallica's cover is much better

[jcastorina]

YES THIS RULES, FUCK EVERYONE THAT THUMBED YOU DOWN. Metallica didn't write it so wtf stop comparing, they'd tell you to STFU themselves.

[killgore333333]

no i bet if metallica could they would take credit for this song lol

[redrampager50210]

lars would sue them for playing it first lol

[hankaligali]

any band would

[nimhelm]

hmmm, 1:16 sounds like a part from eruption from van helen, the beginning sp awesome.

[cmsasuke17]

diamond head comes first! van halen comes second!

[Punjabi192]

But you see it was just as good before it came out.

[aaronman4772]

One of the most awesome riffs ever.

[OrnluWolfjarl]

This is awesome music

Just let urself to the thrash or dt listen to it at all!

[hellspawndarkangel]

am i evil???

[Punjabi192]

I dont know, maybe you are. . .

[SirCovvboy]

Zajebisty kawałek, jeden z najlepszych w historii metalu!!!!!

Am I evil? yes, I fucking am! Am I evil? I am man, yeah!

\m/

[zeppmann93]

its Lightning to the Nations by the way....awesome song!

[daywalkermike]

Thank you, alineto666, for posting this video ! I think the Metallica-Version is maybe a little bit heavier but this is better in another way.... it sounds so mystic, because of the vocals. very good ! It´s a shame, that the original never got the credits and appreciation as the cover.

[Rowsdower]

I know that Am I evil was re-recorded once. is this the version from 1982's Borrowed Time LP or the original version remastered or something? I have the original white album version and it doesn't sound like this one. isn't Sean supposed to say "Mr. Guitar" before the solo? i do remember hearing him say that in some version of this song.
