Blackmore's Night - Smoke on the water

[vazon69]

Please God, NO! A rotten version with SLIDE! Oh dear, how very dare you?

[strutter88]

What a load of shit. Ritchie i love you, please fuck her off and get back to what you do best

[six2112]

I'd like to bang Candace in the chocolate starfish and drop a load in her colon....just saying

[alkimst13]

@six2112 can i take pictures???

[six2112]

@alkimst13 please feel free :)

[ekuxhi]

The one and only. Man in Black. Ritchie!

[Veretennikov9]

Смешно это всё!!! Лучше Йена Гиллана её никто не исполнит!!! Всё это затеяно лишь бы ещё раз насладится звучанием Fender`а великого Ричи!!!

[luckieian]

I love the song & Purple, but ritchie that was rubbish. She sounds like a pub singer and his solo was crap.

[1Hansele1]

I think Blackmore's Night is not bad, but this one is awfull!

[OKclubinfo]

come on Ritchie, this is awfull..back to PURPLE..just for once..the end is near, Rock 'n' roll bleed without YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!

[rodrigogmz182]

blackmore is blackmore ok ??? he is a genius aand he really knows what he doing

[Pearly403]

Pamts!!! the real one!!



[BenGabbay]

Okay, Blackmore's Night is awesome. Smoke on the Water is also awesome. BUT THEY DON'T MIX. I love Blackmore's Night, but I can't bloody stand to listen to this...

[wolfatnight]

I'm a gi-mungous Purple fan..... and can appreciate the Blackmore's Night material.... but I dont know that these two worlds can co-exist. I'd love a Purp-reunion at some point, but I dont think it will happen. Nice to see Richie will at least acknowledge his time in Purple... but I think they should stick to "Spirit Of The Sea"....

[KHaussel]

All the "we want Deep Purple back" posts get annoying, man. You cannot reproduce that time. God knows the current lineup tries to, unsucessfully. I grew up on DP and Rainbow but am I huge fan of Blackmore's Night. Namaste!

[romaneberle]

@KHaussel

nah, comeon, DP with steve morse is a killer band. I see no "trying" there, just great musicians. and morse is not blackmore, yes.

[Pitfossil]

@KHaussel Richie is the only man in the world who ought to play that number and the only one of us who got Candice. Anyone who isn´t jealous: here I stand and say I am!

[johnsteed28]

il ne detruit rien!! Deep Purple restera deep purple!!! il fait une version differente c'est tout!!!

[1993marek1]

No, no,no... it is very bad perfomance. I don´t know what Blackmore do. He probably forgot, what is rock ´n´ roll.

[rudess84]

how to destroy 20 years of deep purple...blackmore...you made and now destroyed deep purple...

[mincemeat99]

Stick with the new stuff, guys.

[mincemeat99]

Blackmore and the gang needs to pick only paricular Purple tunes. Smoke On the Water?? Pick a less obvious one.

[Ferlief]

@mincemeat99 they made a lot of other covers :3

[Magister365]

Blackmores Night have really lost their direction. The music is no longer Medieval sounding and the general magic has disappeared. Celluloid Heroes on the latest Blackmores Night album Autumn Skies, is the WORST song they have ever written...... so far.

[JosephTheRock]

Best Blackmore solo on youtube is done by Pat Travers. Keywords "pat travers smoke on the water" and skip to 2:35. He does Machine Head version note for note on a Gibson! Listen to the rest of it and you'll hear Glenn in the background.

Just a bunch of guys having a lot of unpretentious fun.

[MrKolt2112]

BUTCHERED

[pouyadevil]

Just somebody tell me why??? is it love??? if it is i hate this 

[Gamer1988Pro]

Richie blackmoore is a genius.. and i respect that he was an original member playing this songs guitar riff...

But steve morses Version of the song.. is for me the best one.. It's just more ..

HARD ROCK ^^

[Simbanuts20021961]

Leave them alone you wankers. We all must move on

[proscros]

Ritchie don't do it! Don't deformate oldiest songs.They're kind of taboo for old generations. Make your new kind of music whatever or you're fuckin' our earliest dreams even your's.

[laga16old]

soooooooooooooooo schlecht :-(

[kink66]

crap!

[IngridCalvo]

\õ/ BN FOREVER! ♥

[rigovalenz]

eeeepic fail!!!!!!!

[mcleanartists]

She's terrible

[paulspalace]

Well lets be truthful with the state of Gillan's vocal chords these day even Ian shouldn't sing it. I'm a Deep Purple fan but i think its time to call it a day.

[TheCutsnake]

in response to everyone saying only ian gillan should sing this song. most bands in the world do a version of this song, are they all supposed to stop? i even sing it with my band, are you telling me to stop?

[MrBourno]

this stratocaster sound is UNIQUE!!!!

[TheMichaelseymour]

@MrBourno I noticed that too ....can anyone tell me about this particular strat ...i like the sound of it - as i do nearly all of Ritchie's strats . Is it modified heavily ? ....Hello? Ritchie's guitar tech -come in please, over.

[MrBourno]

@TheMichaelseymour I Don't know what Ritchie does with his guitars and he has his sound but probably there are some unique choices on the guitar for example this guitar has only two pick-ups!

[mowgli4peace]

Ian Gillan had the best vocal, but he has lost it now. Here in this video, Cindy is okay as far as 'live' performances go..but artists like Tarja, Doro or Sharon den Adel could have done lot better. There are some pretty good studio cover/tribute of this song (by various musicians), check them out. Regarding Ritchie's rejoining DP, it's not gonna happen (I know Ritchie from other side of the globe). Maybe Rainbow (or projects) , but never DP.

[LifesonEarth]

SOTW would not get in my top 10 Deep Purple songs - frankly I'm sick of it. Any new version is certainly a refreshing change.

As for the 'Gillan-is-the-only-one-who-ca­n sing-it" views - get a life!

[MisatoK29]

Okay, everyone here who keep telling Blackmore to "go back to Deep Purple" or "go back to Rainbow", I kind of know what you mean. I made a Hitler video about this very subject. To see it, you have to search for misatok29 in YouTube search, and then click the link misatok29 that's next to the first video that is listed, and there will be the videos I made. Then just click on the video titled

"Hitler finds out about Blackmore's Night"

[waldechris]

Richtie sent her to the kichen! There is her place!!! and reforme Rainbow!

[christuffer]

Blackmore - now pussy-whipped beyond recognition. 

[Super1bigKahuna]

I agree, she has a great voice but she is not suited for this song. The song starts out with one of the most memorable riffs in rock history and in this version the riff is left out of the beginning. The riff is great but the song does not stand on its own even with the riff. You need an Ian Gillian to pull it off.

[zipsterfy]

i thought it was only me who was thinkin that . if people want to see ritchie with purple buy a dvd

[zinaku]

Personally I DONT like this version, at all. As far as her voice goes, she has a Fantastic voice, but it IS NOT suited for this type of music. While onstage they really try to stick to their own stuff, but the audience gets so ronky that they will break down and play what the audience is yelling for

[mightytreasure]

I praised the Blackmore's Night Child in time version i saw here on youtube, but for this song her voice doesn't have the baffled and disbelieving story telling nature of the original or any of the versions that Joe Lynn Turner does. The music will always be timeless regardless.

[ricardodrmthtr]

DIE BITCH!!!

[Rishon1981]

yes ,agree that would be wonderful if the get together, LORD< BLACKMORE< GILLAN, PAICE AND LORD! what they did is the best music of 20-21 century

[fodnis3]

Great Guitar, horrible singing

[kjn5991]

@fodnis3 dont diss her. she's Ritchies wife, if you didnt know.

[KSvetlio]

OMG she is a bad singer - and in the begining :X

[KSvetlio]

I know that we all can't say anything to blackmore because he is the best guitar player. but come oooon! this sucks! go back to purple lord ritchie! pls!

[schattenphoenix]

I like her voice but she doesnt fit the song =(

Back to original Blackmores Night

[Zukatsr125]

@schattenphoenix Your right. Is not that Blackmores wife (that singing)?

[zekeyjones]

You all don't quite get it, do you? Bad mouthing Blackmore's wife? Pretty unsophisticated. It's rather kind of Richie to include this in the set, to please the crowd.  Based on the comments here, not much appreciated by the rabble.

[nikasam777]

really a horrible version, i don't like this women's voice :@

[danielworks]

pretty bad

[kiawase]

bad

[wireboy100]

A very nice tribute.

[itomni819]

COOL F'N VERSION!!!

[insaneone5150]

thats pretty bad

[Wrathdemon]

You suck!!!!!!!! Richie get a real singer!!! like Ian Gillan? Oh that's right, you can't get along with anyone who is a good singer. Joe Lynn Turner is the only one who still thinks your worth a shit. Go do something with him and ditch that karaoke singer wife of yours!

[PotterSpurn]

This is so bad. Candi starts in the wrong key and, in order to compensate for the awful start, Blackers has to make adjustments and cue to the other band members to join in at all. Her voice is all wrong for hard rock too and Blackers sounds far too constrained to accommodate her weak, inappropriate vocals and the ending is abrupt and nearly as bad as the start.

[Rammbock]

what a shame that such a gifted musician voluntarily performs with a mediocre band, rather than with the real thing.

[quepasacony]

VERY DISSAPOINTED

[MrIoseliani]

puuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuufff

[mmmdio]

what the fuck are u doing? are u crazy man? totally shit...shame on u blackmore...what u've done to this song?

[embajamillo]

Why she says "we all came out to montreaux"?, she wasn't there!!! Only Gillan can sing this song!. Come on Ritchie you know it's true!

It´s time for a reunion, before it´s too late.

[ritchieblackmore92]

@embajamillo it's too late... i come from palermo (italy) the deep purple band has been near here few days ago and i saw them for my first time but steve morse is not like blackmore... blackmore is like a god without him and without lord deep purple band will never come back... however sorry for my english but i'm italian and i have a poor english

[MisatoK29]

@embajamillo Well, Ian was the better singer, but I believe it was Coverdale that went out to Montreaux.

[embajamillo]

@MisatoK29 Dear Misato: I guess Coverdale has been in Montreaux many times, but this song was written for the "Machine Head" album, actually, "smoke" tells the story of how the album was recorded, in Montreaux, by the MkII line up. Trust me (or google it, :P).

[MisatoK29]

@embajamillo Ahh okay. Thanks for Clearing that up. I have been a Deep Purple fan for a long time. Maybe a little bit too long, since facts I used to know like the back of my hand, I am now no longer 100% sure of. Okay, now I've really dated myself. ;D

[tonytman666]

absolute shit blackmores night should stick to doing their own stuff witch is great and stop murdering the old deep purple & rainbow stuff candice's voice is not powerful enough for rock!!!!!!!!!

[lukasxbachtik]

This version would sound better without lyrics... :-/

Gillan, Lord, Glover, Paice missing...

[Eliastion]

Sounds as if they messed up their callendar and celebrated the end of their tour before giving this concert :D

Can't find better explenation to this, err... level of performance ;)

[habomir]

lmfao this is great.

[rudess84]

blackmore...what fuck are you doing??

[Ferlief]

@rudess84 with Candice Night? the best kind of fuck. =)

sorry, I could not resist :3

[serpienteguerrera]

@rudess84 He´s doing Music.

[booooyakable]

:-D :-D :-D what it is????

[SuperXU1]

Fuck me.what a load o' crap!No one's in tune or correct pitch.Worst rendtion i've heard Blackers play.Ian Gillan must be laughin' his tits off.I know i am......

[fugnuzzle1970]

WOW! That was crap!

[blahblahjam]

ian paice is much bettter

[linnyloupa]

In a word, horrible! Ritchie, snap out of it and go back to your roots! You are becoming a shadow of your former self! It is very sad!

[Damis101]

audio makes it sound like no one was on the same note--each one harmonizing to the wrong version...: ( Instrumentals still great, though.

[tempofreak69]

Ok, this song does not work with this band, at all, even if you like this band. Admit it.

[Mystifier122]

Ugh.. That chick is nicer to look at than Ian Gillan but should NOT be singing this. Just plain wrong :-(

[xxAtlantianKnightxx]

Smoke from the Kitchen.... Fire at the stage...

[vucic89]

"No matter what we get out of this

I know well never forget".

Did you forget Ritchie?Did you really forget Jon,Roger, Paice and Ian?Did you forget a hard rock phenomenal band from the early 70s and middle-last 80s? The band UNIQUE in the history of rock music?Did you forget them?

[thorba69]

Blackmore has said 10000 times he hates somoke... so, why he´s still play it? it´s a shame what he´s doing right now, he´s one of the best guitar player in the rock history where he belongs, not doing this...thing?

[memmori1]

@thorba69 He also has said he's tired of rock so wants to do baroque and medieval stuff - and what we see? He and his talentless wife doing the same old DP/Rainbow songs (I'd better say 'butcher the songs", 'cos these versions are just HORRIBLE!!)

[demonikous]

BAHH what the fock is that! murdered version snif :(

[jonhstyll]

blackmore come back to hard rock please!!

[Andronav]

NA HUY! IMHO bad version. FF topku.

[memmori1]

@Andronav Именно. Отвратная версия, петь она не умеет и не умела никогда. Тембр голоса до чего противный...

[Andronav]

NA HUY! IMHO bad version/

[eviltilt]

grate !!!

[sloroll]

Still gives me chills to hear him play that. Thanks Ritchie. You are the one that inspired me to play guitar back in the 60's. And, I still play. Thanks.

[shotguy1]

c'mon blackmore come back to the rock!!!its not your business,your business is rockin sooo fuckin hard and crashing guitars!!!!

[shredmaster100]

blackmore needs to reform rainbow with dio or graham bonnet that would work much better because they can sing the songs

[Tatarka19]

I love Blackmore´s night, but...this is not song for them!!

[yanksrule311]

Ummm yeah...this isn't, umm good.

BUT...check her out singing Diamonds and Rust...Killer!

[jethrodassam]

This bitch sucks so fuckin bad

[shaniaisgod]

That "Bitch" is Ritchie Blackmores gorgeous Wife

[jethrodassam]

Good to know. Mrs. Blackmore sucks. What the fuck is Ritchie thinking about?

[Satchwood]

EvErY ThInG fiTs with you gUyS !!! ... BN can play ANYTHING.......yes yes ANYTHING !!!!!

[Whackooyzero]

MY EARS! THEY'RE BLEEDING!

[ccr1965]

After watching this, they should have Ritchie on a live BBC broadcast, and let Ian Gillan come out and hit him in the bullocks with a golf club

[Pitfossil]

Rich & co. were to record an album in Switzerland...the night before they sat in the hotel, looked across the lake and saw the studio burning to cinders. Nice of them to immortalize that studio in a song.

[tigerdouble]

Great song trashed.

[BlackHoleSun1921]

Her vocals are off.

[kicpunk]

Boże słyszysz i nie grzmisz!!!

[pushmss]

nie pierdol, elegancka wersja !

[boski05]

Zgadzam się!

[soumyaaymous]

I CAN BOW DOWN AND KISS BLACKMORE'S FEET!! thats how much i admire and respect him...but certain songs are...well...meant 2 be performed in a certain way and by certain people..for example i didnt like gillan's version of paranoid...although gillan is a legend/god and a zillion times better than ozzy , prnoid is meant 4 ozzy..

just like that this song is meant 2 be performed by the classic Mk II of deep purple ..although that'll nvr happen again i guess :(

[MARKABIKER]

c'mon guys... don't ever criticise since u can't do it better ;-)

[teo2712]

BLACKMORES GONE RIDICOLOUS... I saw Deep Purple last night, they're much better than this shit

[trustinb]

amazing talent and voice,,,,,,but NOT for this song...c'mon....

[mustardboy2]

Needs more cowbell.

[TheDarkVII]

What I need is MORE cowbell!

[jtomasik]

LOL.

Ain't that the truth. I'm a huge Blackmore fan, but this is just wrong!

[Zylophila]

@mustardboy2 We all need more cowbell! Hahahahahaaa!

[ebora]

@mustardboy2 needs more purple !

[StephAMPERSAND]

Ritchie, love is one thing but you need to get back to what you were made for...

DEEP PURPLE ,RAINBOW

let the rock God out man........

and blessings to you both

[gurumts]

Are u gyus idiots ??? Candice has A Perfect Voice .... Ofc Its Better For BLackmore to return to Deep Purple or Rainbow but u should be happy he still plays ... And candice isn't bad !!! wake up ...

[brian28life]

dios mio q conchuda como la cago... q dominado este viejo blackmore

[destry232]

I watched this video in disbelief.

Blackmore needs to ditch this Renaissance Fair crap A.S.A.P.

Candace can be in charge of taking tickets.

[stargazer101064]

r ya f..kin kdding me?

[Albertosky1]

Esta canción era de Deep Purple pero la escribió Ritchie Blackmore así que si quiere cantarla con quien el quiera pues bienvenido sea

[BlackmoreMonares]

Para los ke eskucharon a RAINBOW

esta version no es nada nueva

[Satchwood]

Hey she singing a cover of one of her husband's previous bands - they can play anything they like in my book - they got a sensational band and then to pull this off - I'd go in a heart beat - first of all I luv Blackmore's Night and then to know that they do covers like this - flippin sensational!!!

[chikerialost]

Ridiculous. Sad. Awful!!! Blackmore is ever incredible, but your wife don´t sing well.

[BenWGray]

I agree, I hate what she's done to him. He needs to come back to us with Rainbow!

[Halongas]

Only Ian allowed to sing this song. She spoiled it!

[lettlinkarockerka]

That's awful! To Deep Purple Do you still have a long way off!

[laragunner123]

T___T

[MYTUBEISAPUSSY]

the cheapest fucking purple-song of all times even gez worse.....my 4 year old daughter can do better !

[sunandsage]

Blackmore sounds great on this though.

[sunandsage]

As much as I like Candice's voice, she's the wrong singer for this song.

If you want to try a female vocalist on this song, try someone like Ann Wilson from Heart or maybe someone could convince Grace Slick to come out of retirement.

[homeagent]

Or Candice could have been a lttle more responsible and sing it LOuD like we are used to. I bet one of the twins could have taught her the technique. Don't get me wrong- I love Candice!

I miss the twins.

and Ann Wilson and Grace.

[Lyvlen]

Or Joan Jett, anyone?

[almasdelmasalla]

¿*_________*?

[boski05]

This is Blackmore Night's. Sounds fine to me:)

[uofm97]

What the hell, Ritchie? Blaspheming your own work? That's just lame, man.

[GreenManalichi]

Bring back Doogie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!

[fadethetrade]

Horrible version!

[brantass1]

i love BN but this is bad selection of songs to sing

i think they have made blunders in this live show... hopefully they fix it for the next live show !

[Edsongs1964]

Nada a ver o vocal.

[Giuseppepermasallo]

Guys! He's Blackmore... the King, he can play any song!

[DjSafX]

Horrible! Just put me off the song. Sounds like a Madonna track or something. Please Candice, don't do Deep Purple stuff, stick with the Lord Of The Rings Soundtrack.

[takis811965]

very VERY BIG SHIT

[morphiaxyz]

she is a great singer...but... SMOKE ON THE WATER??? sorry but is not for her....only gillan can sing this song...no one else... neither david coverdale :)

[XRISTAR5]

thanks mate.....someone who understands ROCK n' ROLL

[morphiaxyz]

actually.. i'm a girl :D and thank you.

i saw deep purple two years ago...live in my country.. it was great ( except the power failure :)) )

Ian Gillan is GOD!! :D

[XRISTAR5]

there is no problem that you are a girl.....basically it isn't very usual but honestly well done...

[morphiaxyz]

hm.. why do you think it isn't very usual?

[XRISTAR5]

because the most people who are listening rock are men and the little amount of woman can't understand the good voice from the bad...but you can and that's unusual....but there are a lot of men who can't understand it too

[morphiaxyz]

well thank you. :) (and you're right... i know a few men of that kind..)

[LICherrygirl]

OH, PLEASE ! Give me a break...

HEMAN woman HATERS Club?

Do you think we should ALL be BAREFOOT & pregnant?

Cherry Black of The Cherry Black Band

[kdinhoguitarra]

She does not sound good as a rock and roll singer. This song is for Ian Gillan. But I liked to see Bruce Dickinson singing that. I really do not like to see Coverdale singing that. Nowadays Coverdale sounds much better than early deep purple days. It seemed he had put something inside his mouth when he was singing.

[ratbatblue555]

joe lynn turner can sing it, too

[morphiaxyz]

yeah........but he can not be compared with gillan ;)

[LICherrygirl]

DOOGIE ! The HELL with Gillan!

Leave our girl Candy alone.

I'd like to see you get up and do it.

Gillan keeps losing his voice, ALWAYS HAS-- which isn't at all professional...

[jeanfrederic]

it's a joke??  ^^ but it's a good!!! yes!

[satanic992]

Candice is a very big shit

[velvetkit69]

Candace did a wonderful job with this one. I love it!

[zutturugazzuk]

This group Seems to work Good doing new material. But Candace cant remake Hard rock

Perfect!!!!
