no on the iron maiden influence!! iced earth is the epedimy of thru the heart metal, honest, and true metal!! simply perfection! ,,,sooh beautifull!!!
I think Hansi did a great job at this one...of corse, I mean we are all used to Barlow and I would say it fits Matt better, but Hansi did his own Version and not some sort of Barlow imitation. and I really like Kürsch, he's a great singer
I thought this was a very good version of a classic IE tune. Their version of Travel in Stygian is much better, but this was pretty cool as well. The audience for this show was awesome throughout.
Actually, based on what IE has done lately, I'd rather see Jon chuck that band and convince Hansi to make a full go of the D&W project. Both Crimson King & their debut album blow the hell out of everything IE has done since Something Wicked (although Gettysburg & Damien were pretty cool songs).
I don´t think it is out of his voice´s range. He had just bad day everyone can make a mistake and i saw Hansi make mistake 2x for whole live which is with such godlike singing incredible low number. And remember the end which Hansi screwed, Matt even doesn´t try to sing that high.
Search YouTube, you idiot. Matt always does the last screams. Hansi sounds like Dani Filth on that song. He's good but he should stick to his own songs which he luckily does not ruin.
I'm too used to Matt, singing here and can't imagine this song with anybody else,I didn't really like this cover but doesn't mean I'll insult Hansi,it's just another style.5 stars anyway cause I respect both the artists.
@SpawnRevenge92 i personally like the soft parts better with hansi, but matt does the hard better, but if hansi worked on them in a studio, it'd be badass.
yeah you are right (also seen on the Iced Earth site) but it will probally take a while end 2010 because Hansi is busy with BG and hope Jon will be with IE!
great cover sung by Hansi, I bet the crowd went crazy when they started this song lol I know I would have!!! iced earth and blind guardian rule!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I actually like this version a lot...except for the very end. Hansi didn't have to try to match what barlow did, should have just kept on going the way he did the whole song. Anyway, still very good
Puta que pariu, eu ja fiz merda igual ao que o hansi fez no final dessa musica, mas a diferença é que ele ganha muita grana pra fazer isso, vive disso e deveria ter vergonha de cantar desse jeito! Um LIXO!
Covers are rarely as good as the originals. Nonetheless, this is a very cool attempt. I personally like it. I only wish Hansi's voice was higher in the mix especially in the intro
wow kill yourself. Hansi's voice is the voice of a god. This video clearly does not show his full potential because obviously not many people can sound like Barlow.

well, guys, i really liked blind guardian, but i saw them live twice and hansi sucked as a singer and as an entertainer. and since tomen left, they became total crap.
Hansi has always been a singer, he just played Bass for the first few CDs, but later decided the band didn't need it so he could concentrate on his singing. I understand your disappointment with this song, but Hansi's not Matt.
I'm also in a band, and know what happens when our singer tries to sing songs that aren't in his range? He sounds like shit. D&W just decided to do covers of their favorite song from the band they're not in. Of course Hansi could sing Welcome to Dying and not this.
Holy Shit! Kursch singing an Iced Earth song!!! holy shit this is awesome!!!!!!! if you can stick the MP3 on the net somewhere up for download, that would be awesome!
Why don't you like it guys?! I mean....ok,...it is better with Matt Barlow but Hansi has done a very good job here! This is awesome!

Well...
You have to understand that Hansi is NOT Matt Barlow there for he puts his own twist on things.
I'm not saying that this is Hansi's best work but its still amazing to hear two of my biggest inspirations going at it together as one.
I wish Blind Guardian and Iced Earth still toured together... :'(
