Cover>Original. Dio is epic but you cant compare newer metal with metal from the early years. Face it early metal is not conceived as metal by regular non metal devotes. Old meal is now mistaken for rock or other genras, F*ck spelling. Not that the original version isn't awesome but its just that metal now is harder than metal from beforehand. Example Black Sabath: Planet Caravan/Pantera: Planet Caravan. Both good one harder than the other though.
@sgtgreenthumb killswitch engage isn't a shitty radio band. Have you heard any of their other songs? And not just on the as daylight dies album, but songs like the arms of sorrow, or older ones with Jesse leach like temple from the within or my last serenade? Killswitch engage is an amazing metal band.
@sting666CROW you are delusional you emo cock, and are you so fucking lifeless that you read through all the comments to find every bad one and comment, because i remember commenting a year ago, wow you are pathetic
@chrisgr00ver I think you're the 100000th person to be so ignorant... Dio wrote the song a long ass time ago, Killswitch Engage did a cover of it and made it sound better.
@qwertyxf he means that killswitch engage did not originally do this song, don't sully a metal gods name by giving credit to a shitty radio metal band, i think thats what he meant
@Wooooootube dio may have originally done this song, but a famous cover of it was done by KSE. My personal opinion is that KSE's version is better. Gotta say though, both rock :)
this sounds so awesome, someone fiddeling with 8bit games or games with 8bit music should consider using this :D tho i dont hope it violates copyrights
lol i think it prolly does but i dunno for sure, but what about some dj's on youtube or people who make remixes and put 'em on YT those prolly violate them too
