  • I love the original but I love how tiger army did this cover

  • Nooo, I prefer the jazzy version. XD

  • This should have been on Nightmare Revisited rather than Rodrigo Y Gabriela.

  • i love this verson soo much better xD

  • So no one knows what a cover is?

  • Enter your text here.

  • wow could they actually try to give it a creepy vibe? XD

  • @TheSuperinvader You're an idiot.

  • I do like this one, but I think the Rodrigo y Gabriela is awesome..

  • I gotta go with the original, if not, I can always sing to Rodrigo y Gabriela one... (I sing it creeper than Tiger Army by far! >:D *Boogie voice* AND YOUTUBE... AIN'T GOIN'... NOWHERREEEE....

  • i like this, but it isnt "scary" like the original one was

  • @idateawesomeninjas It's not meant to be.

  • Comment removed

  • it sounds sorta greaser..

  • I like this. He's so calm that it's creepy.

  • He just doesn't have the right kind of voice to sing it and make it kinda creepy, which is the best part

  • Beastly<3

  • dude think of BVB played this

  • @gonfftheprince it would suck terribly.

  • god this cover blows

  • "And if you're not a-shakin' , there's really nothing wrong. 'Cause this may be the hundredth time you've played the Boogie Song!"

  • This is more how Oggie should have been! Sounds like he's taking the piss and having more of a laugh then trying to sound evil and scary

  • doesnt really have the natural oogie boogie atmosphere to it, seems forced, rodrigo y gabriela one managed to do it way better without lyrics

  • Don't get me wrong this has a cool Oogie Boogie Rockabilly vibe to it but if they ever do a Nightmare cover album again I think they should have Cee-Lo/Gnarls Barkley do this song so it can have that deep voice sining done justice.

  • I love this song and Tiger Army :) Its like heaven. The only good Nightmare Cover.. :)

  • @tempess1413 The music Tiger Army portrays for this isn't suppose to be evil it's suppose to be a fast paced swing type. You can't have both.

  • Just listen to Voltaire's songs... perfect match for them. Tiger army's not bad, but... they arn't Oogie Boogie, cause oogie's dark and...actually evil

  • The music's excellently done but the singer just doesn't enjoy being evil enough.

  • i like the music, but not quite the right singer.

  • awesome :D

  • I don't think this was the right song for Tiger Army, I think it's more fit for Voltaire who definitely deserved a song on this album.

  • @TehRayman1110 agreed,who better than voltaire to do a cover of this song.

  • I saw this on iTunes when I was looking for ringtones and when i heard it i immediately bought it. love it to the extent where I can not stop listening to it! -3 great tiger army rhythm.

  • wow

  • tiger deathbat?

  • Theres really no emotion,and thats what sucks about this.

    In the original there was this delightfully evil tone in the singers voice,you could tell he was enjoying every moment of his being evil.

    This...this only part I like in vocals is the chorus. The music is nice but it seems like the singer is rushing it and he doesn't hit on a few of the notes we're used to so it fails a bit there.

    His voice is nice though,just...too monotone for this song.

  • @LuckyLolita243: I agree. This makes a great rock song, but it lost all the mischief and terror in it. Oogie Boogie's song is supposed to have an almost mocking tone to it, like you're looking the grinning devil in the face and you know he's going to win and there's not a single thing anyone can do about it.

  • I don't know why people don't like this. It's nice to see a new version of the Boogie song!

  • i wish he did the evil laugh at the end oh well i still like the song

  • i likes it, but he doesn't sound evil enough. wich i guess good and bad <3

  • Best cover ever i think just as good as the original

  • Now that singer sucks xD

  • LOVE IT!!!!!!! <3

  • i actually love this version

  • I love how you guys are so angry at this. Tiger Army is a great band. This is not an easy song to cover because the original was so good. If you dont like it then dont listen to it its that simple.

  • @TheJIgsawJamie I'm with you on this one.

  • @TheJIgsawJamie Yeah, I love it. It's actually my favorite song from the original, and I love Tiger Army so... where's the bad?

  • @juliebogen

    Exactly! People need to just chill

  • it's good but the voice is a little too nonchalant

  • this is horrible. there's so many other psychobilly bands that could've been a better choice.

  • Man was listing to this and thought it was Voltaire

  • @TheWildgoth Cannot unhear now.

  • @TheWildgoth I know right?

  • this is freaking awesome!

  • Well everyone knowes that there won't be as good song as original sang by boogie. But guys this song has awsome rythm!

  • Comment removed

  • stupid

  • I wish it was a little slower.

  • This version kicks ass!

    In my opinion this is almost BETTER than the orignal. But that's just my opinion.

  • If you put it to just instrumental it sounds like i belongs in fallout new vegas

  • Oh no it is missing the second WooooOO wooooOOO voice, :(

    Still pretty good though!

  • The whole point of this being a cover is that it isn't just a copy and it has the bands/singers own twist to it.

    Personally I love all of the Nightmare covers

    

  • Wow i love his voice in this , i think he matches-3

  • oh, come on guys, this is a cover...it's not supposed to sound like the original, so stop complaining.

  • I love the 3 versions of this song :D

  • Alright i like it

  • My son loves this and I love how this is swing with a dash of Punk.. (^_^) Awesome!

  • Guys quit complaining that his voice doesn't match oggie's cuz the point of a cover is to take a song and give it your own sound, even of your sound is the polar opposite of the original.

  • He doesn't sound evil. He sounds like a nerd. xD

  • @PointsofData Well, then he is a nerd. But at least hes cooler than you.

  • @OogieBoogieFan Hey, that was a compliment. Nerds are awesome. Especially the candy. But nerds shouldn't sing evil genius songs unless it's an evil genius nerd. Just my opinion.

  • @PointsofData Sorry then T ~ T

  • @OogieBoogieFan NP. ^-^

  • @PointsofData

    LMFAO!

  • do not like

    his voice just doesnt match with oogie

  • I got to say I really enjoy this one almost as much as the original. But I feel when I hear this one I can't help but to think of Boogie just thinner if that makes since like his built was more like Jack's over being like Santa lol.

  • They really do this song justice!

  • Srry, this just doesnøt... Fit the song... Thumbs down

  • Liked this better than the Rodrigo y Gabriela cover.

  • @racepoltergeist The Rodrigo y Gabriela cover was impressive.. I can't imagine what it takes to play a guitar like that. But I do like this one more. Could just be because I like Tiger Army..

  • @silencedchylde I don't think they should be compared. One is an impressive artistic feat of acoustic brilliance. This one is pretty good to jam to though.

  • i like this version better ;P

  • Sounds too enthusiastic. Sounds like he just rushed through it.

  • -sigh- This kinda ruined the song for me. The guy is just talking and you can even tell some of the parts are freaking repeated.

  • Dat pretty sick. I like it. I like it a lot.

  • Eh, he has a nice voice, but he put no effort into it, you can hear just how damn unenthusiastic he is.

  • @Ulron1 no he just sang it a different way...

  • @Barnabi21 Yeah, and what way is that? I know! "Screw this, I don't give a shit so I'll perform in the most lackluster way I can!"

  • @Ulron1 thats how he always sings

  • @Barnabi21 Really...aw, that's sad...

  • @Ulron1 thats just the way his voice is its not like he is not putting effort into it.... i bet he can sing a hell of a lot better than you

  • @Barnabi21 tbh he may be puttingeffort in but his voice just isn't rightfor tis at all it isso febel

  • @Barnabi21 Probably yeah, but at least when I sing I don't sound bored out of my mind.

  • @Ulron1 dude its just the was he sang a few songs its not like he was really bored i like the sound if it myself but you are entitled to your opinion so lets just drop it

  • you're jokin'

    you're jokin'

    you gotta be

    this CAN'T be the right song -_-

    just for LOLZ

  • Would'a been amazing if the pace was slowed down a little bit!

  • I actually really like this guys voice for some reason. Never heard of this band. but I'm definately looking it up now! :3

  • I tried singing this song at his speed, But with the original voice.

    Then I came upon a conclusion this song needs a louis armstrong cover.

  • WTF, why has this singer been alowed to live?

  • @FFEMR616 ... What?

  • Ethan Lawrence Melnock

  • the guy singing's this's good. but it doesn't come close to toping the origional.

  • @DarksideEXE it can't top the original... Coz they're different styles.

  • this is an abortion!!!!!!!

  • Who sings the original of this.

  • i'm planning on doing a gore version of this for my school, where santa claus is a child rapist, and the boogeyman(played by me XD)is envisioned as a vigilante. what do you think?i'm singing this version and everything X)

  • @murosteel umm... no just... no

  • @spyromaniaman well, that's your opinion >_> i'm still doing it

  • Amazing rockabilly cover.It's not suppose to sound like the original thats why its a cover!! Tiger Army FTW!!!!!!!

  • i still prefer the other cover if im honest, i think the lack of lyrics makes it just thayt little bit creepier, but this is amazing! xx

  • I like the instrumental in this cover, but his voice doesn't have the right timing, tone, or emotion.

  • ehhhh sounds kinda too happy this guys voice doesnt work with this song >>

  • i love this cover

  • I love Nightmare Revisited!!!!♥

    great job!

  • 27 People want to be eaten by Mr Oogie Boogie or atleast be Put On His List....

  • This is cool... But part of the reason why the original was so good was cause he didn't sing so fast. *shrug* I'd give this both a thumbs up and thumbs down if I could. :P

  • @GarlicKiss and the original singer had a evil voice and he put a lot of sentiment in it .. this guy sounds like hes singing any song .. the original was singing as he were oogie boogie.

  • @GarlicKiss Plus! Oogie Boogies voice just fits the song much much better.

  • @GarlicKiss really that's the reason it wasn't a big fan of the original

  • @GarlicKiss Thats probibally how he is used to singing or their style for a song. *shrugs* I like it ,but i think it just seems weird. I just think thats their style for this.

  • Amazing but i do belive disturbed could do an amazing cover of this song :P

  • The vocals are great but weak as shit for oogie, The Nekromantix would have done wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy better, even better than that would be zombie ghost train. But there not mainstream enuff for the mall goth faggots who hijacked Nightmare

  • @TheFragglesrocked or voltaire and korn

  • wtf "stuff" is he talking about o_O!?

  • @emileegooiega listen to the original song and you will get it

  • Sorry, but without a deep, strong voice singing this it just doesn't sound right.

    Points for effort, but that's about it.

  • The only thing that I don't like about this is the fact that they cut out Sandy Claws. D:

  • i do like this song and all, but it doesn't sound anything like the original so it doesn't even sound like the same song, i think another band could have done oogies voice better, though all and all this is a good singer, just not his type of song

  • Fail. They totally coulda gotten Setzer to sign on for this. Or, given the direction they leaned with the kinds of bands on the album, they shoulda dug up the Cherry Poppin' Daddies. They woulda had a damn FIELD DAY with this. The song is worthless without charisma.

  • Comment removed

  • I'm gonna go the way of Vivvav blooink and buckles....Nothing interesting to hear here.....

  • This is terrible. The original is so good because it's all about personality. Oogie doesn't sing so much as say words with a lot of soul and personality. When he actually does sing, it's just magnified even more. This cover doesn't capture the spirit of the original at all.

  • godless wicked creeps wouldve done a better job. this cover sucks Dx

  • well this wasa total fail i thought iwas going to be better than they look D:

  • @blooInk1 Agreed, I do not like this verison at all. It's like its not even the same song.

  • @BucklesZomg yeah hes trying to hard >3<

  • @blooInk1 I have to disagree. If you like rockabilly music at all you should appreciate this cover, I personally think it was the BEST on the whole CD.

  • @BrittanyChanel1950 I guess so, then again everyone thinks differently

  • this is a god Cover but still the orginal version is the best... i mean it has to be but i do like this one alot

  • I wish they put the other voices in there. other than that its great

  • This is....such a sarcastic version of such a great song...

  • It took a couple listenings to but this is actually a pretty good song.

    Rating goes: 1. Rodrigo & Gabriela (I play guitar so I am in awe) Tied at two with the original is this one.

  • awesome cover,i love the movie soooo much :D

  • Why wasns't this on nightmare revistised? It's better than half the shit they put on it.

  • @TheKillingJoke14 This was the bonus song they had on their

  • Lol 25 don't comprehiend the position that they're in

  • awesome cover!! :) i love this movie

  • Oh dearr .'

  • Who dont like this song is really crazy!

    I love this version!

    Better than the Original!

    It Rocks and I love his voice. Its not so creepy and crazy like the original Ooogie Boogie man but this version has more...i dont know i cant subscribe it...

    Great!

    Thank you to uploading this!

  • fuckin amazing cover and as I've watched the movie so many times i know what santa says off by heart lol kinda sad i know

  • People like agasteier20 can jump off a bridge. This cover is epic.

    I like the instrumentals where Santa sings.

    Awesome band. If you dont like it, shove it.

  • What happens to Santa? :O

  • This.Is.Awesome.

    

  • the singing could've been better, more darker like it was supposed to be. but overall the melody and instruments were good. i still like the version from Nightmare Revisited

  • I know it might be intended but...no feeling in the singing. sorry I dont like it at all. I am disappointed.

  • This is OK...but to me they should've been a little louder

  • I've never heard of this band but I really like this cover!

  • his voice doesn't really fit for the song, but otherwise i luv it.

  • 1:46 - 2:11

    IS SO COOL!

  • i love how at 2:11 they just come in singin agen

  • the singer has potential, but his voice is to high. I think a baratone should have sung this song.

  • LOVE this song!

  • this is a respectable version

  • @MrProfessornutbutter Indeed dude.

  • @DarthLordTruth  and I want their logo minus the words as a tattoo. I already have the spot picked out

  • "Now with your permission, I'm going to do my stuff"

    *whips out guitar and proceeds with kick-ass solo*

  • ok the original is wayyyyyy better, not to hate on tiger army, but they should have let some else do it, you know what, this album "nightmare revisited" would have been WAY better if all of it were Marilyn Manson and Korn :P <3 MM Fan For Life <3
