Alkemyst - Eagle Fly Free (Helloween Cover)

[Choctaw468]

Kiske and Lione are hard to beat.

[cholesteroldamage]

1:21 - 1:26 = ORGASMIC SOUND!!!

[Monkeykyr]

Pretty damn good.

[sonnic1995]

amazing, but the guitars in 1st solo soun like midi, well for me dosnt sound "normal"

[DaryusOrigin]

The singer looks like Kai Hansen!

[feriaxD007b]

Good cover, but Vision Divine is a little better

[ThePaazzoo]

..una bella schifezza!

[xNeversmiledx]

buen cover, pero no me gustó mucho el sonido de la batería :/

[nestornegron]

Oh please, this is a cover...

And sounds better than what Helloween did to themselves in that stupid 25 year album.

[ShiningLion]

The vocals are good enough, but to beat Kiske? Nowhere near. And the one stating they sound like Hansi Kürsch (Blind Guardian) is very wrong indeed. This sounds for me a very basic Italian vocalist. Not as good as Morby, Michele Luppi or Alessandro Conti. The drummer is lazy behind the cans, missing some hits in this complex song. The sounds are tight but plastic. The only thing I actually liked were the vocal layers and the hammond supporting the poor drummer during the solo.

[draksneyk]

joder!!!!!! buen vocal!!!!!

[ElSenseiHernan]

I cannot believe some people hate the vocals...I think it is awesome...reminds me of Blind Guardian...

[tankermottind]

@ElSenseiHernan They would be awesome if he had jumped from C5 to F5 at the ending to complete the arpeggio (F4-C5-F5) and bring the song to a satisfying end. Unfortunately he stops short just like Kiske does (even though Kiske had more than enough range to hit the high F if he wanted, grrrr) and causes an inconclusive "blue balls" effect. If you go from tonic to dominant like that you should go back to tonic to make the song sound finished. It's basic music theory.

[ShiningLion]

@tankermottind I agree. As a layperson, I definitely waited for the higher note in the end as well. Like Deris does on Live on Three Continents, for example, although with falset, IIRC. I think that's what you mean, going from C5 to F5. :) Note that Kiske's last vocal stretch is only one note though (that C5?), so it isn't a very bad ending. Typical Kiske, one long one-note ending.

[VNtinos]

Great cover and priceless ending !!

[Samuraiboy]

Best. Cover. Ever.

[tokaimania]

ボーカルがスネ夫ってのがミソだよな〜

[yosizawax]

@tokaimania

確かにスネ夫に聞こえる

不思議ｗ

[adhuruesi]

i dont like vocals

[chozenn1]

Not bad. It's asking a lot to try to hang with Kiske.

[pegioia]

Much heavier guitars than Vision Divine. And Fabio Lione is weak compared to Kiske also.

[Argozz1]

muy buena version¡¡¡¡

[morola217]

I don't like this cover, the voice of the singer is... hmmmm shit The Vision Divine Cover is awasome, but nothing like the original version

[agentorange26]

yeah!, great cover, they respected the original bass solo, for me is the best, better than the live versions!!

[anthonybiker]

A mi no me gustaba el metal; pero por esta cancion empeze a entrar en el, esta cancion es muy buena.

[diamondstar16]

@anthonybiker

Yo a los 8 años escuche esta cancion en un viejo cassete de Helloween que tenia mi tio en un estante, y de verdad desde ese momento no deje de escuchar metal, Helloween is the Law

[DragonBrianZ]

=O Indudablemente ésta versión es mejor que la de VIsion Divine :OOO!!!

[Buffalocrunch]

This still remains my favorite cover of Eagle Fly Free.

[parrish72]

good cover, but I don't think anyone will ever top the original

[carechalla]

genial el cover.... aun no decido si el de vision divine es mejor o no... DA IGUAL ES UN TEMASOO

[Volta4401]

Its very good version and Alkemyst is a great band

[Kriaturametal]

I even love it more than the original... and I thought the original was one of the best powermetal songs ever o.o

[warlord070]

liked the "PERSECUTED" chorus in 1:41 sounded awesome haha

an excellent cover of an excellente song made by an excellent band

[Kriaturametal]

Hahahaha, yep! :D

[Parki001]

Yeah i must admit, this is a great song! one of the best 5*

[helloweenpech]

Great cover , i am die hard fan of Helloween (keepers era ) and this song is awesome with Alkemist.

Btw i have the Alkemyst first cd where the play more power metal than progresive

anyway , they are an excelent band

[Vargr7]

In my opinion, this is the best cover of Eagle Fly Free.

[kamiloazul46]

el de vision divine es bueno tambien

[lordabomity]

I do so much agree with that. Never heard this band before
