So far i think i've only heard a couple below average covers by them....."don't wanna miss a thing" most noteably....but Carry on my wayword son" is by far my favorite.
Does it really matter about the record cover? We know what record it comes from and as far as the spelling , well All that matters is that we know he meant ThunderStruck and that this is a HOTTER THAN HELL VERSION OF THUNDERSTRUCK STRINGS AND ALL !
@718310 a kick drum behind this would kinda defeat the purpose of this version. This version is meant to be out of the box and as legendary and awesome as the original is (and seeing it in concert is as well. I know. Been there), this version is amazing and in a word. brilliant.
this is so good, its so much better without any singing...and no i dont mean singing in general i mean singing by AC/DC specifically, sorry fans, i just hate his voice
Actually it's not just four guys, it's more of a group. They have lots of in-and-out members all the time, but they always play these songs with 4 musicians.
@acdcdorka They'll tell you it could be considered as a blue note in the pentatonic scale. But here it is, this note really sounds awful. The rest is really original.
well i think u made about half that stuff up. but as a cello player i know that violins, violias, cellos, basses and some others lack frets meaning a slide is required occasianly and a finger may land a few centimeters from its mark causing sharpness or flatness.
Unfortunately you are retarded. No professional violin player has such appalling technique that they ever land " a few centimetres" off and hit a full semitone out every single time they go for a particular note. For some reason they've mis-heard it or decided it sounds better with the B flat. It doesn't.
Yep, a lot of idiots can't hear that they're playing it wrong and it sounds worse. Especially the moron who claims to be a cello player and thinks I "made up" some extremely basic music theory that you shouldn't even be looking at a cello if you can't understand and can't hear the difference. LOL
Why does it matter? It's still the same song, just in a different key. It's not like they're offending anyone. Besides, it's a cover. If you wanted to listen to the exact same thing then go listen to the original.
fuck. stop flamming people's opinions. There are limits to cover playing that should be respected. The key they're playing has made the song look sad, instead of energetic, as the song should be. With ONE, only ONE note, changed, the performance woulda been great, i just changed it with my violin.
I'm sorry, I didn't intend to seem offensive or like I was "flamming" your opinion. But like you said, it's an opinion, and we have different ones. I respect yours, so please respect mine.
So far i think i've only heard a couple below average covers by them....."don't wanna miss a thing" most noteably....but Carry on my wayword son" is by far my favorite.
