  • "In MY opinion" you just don't mess with perfection! Ozzy and his side kick Randy,(Rest in Peace),made perfect riff's that stood the test of time,it's 2012 and this song never get's old,just get's better with age.This is just my opinion so no need to start up a You-Tube comment battle,it's just my opinion that's all.Peace and Respect to all humanity!

  • VERY BRUTAL O.O

    

  • this cover is fucking great, doesnt sound like ozzy but its not supposed to, these guy nailed it! love this cover!

  • noce ine !

  • Great cover I must say.., but i prefer the original. great job btw!

  • @TheMrKhaos - I agree. It's pretty good, but I also prefer the original ... For me, it's not really the guitars or even vocals that make this version less than ideal, but the drums. There is a lot of (to me unnecessary) double bass drum stuff that (again, TO ME) sort of ruins the flow/bounce/feel/groove of the original, not to mention some of the natural and original accenting (in the fills) that make the Ozzy version so cool.

  • badass

  • i saw this in the related videos and i was like, "awwww yeahhhhh!"

  • double bass ftw?

    

  • bfmvs cover is better than this.at least mat tuck has a similar voice to ozzy than this.

  • i love shadows fall in all but, they aren't ozzy. Their cover is ok, but i would rather listen to the original.

  • Awesome cover of the classic from Ozzy but as good as it is, I still prefer the original from the Prince of Darkness... but not by much

  • Strung Out did a cover for this song.. straight up guitar shredding and drums are good too

  • John Hits the solos perfect ..Jake is liking it

  • Howard is shit. Killswitch is Shit. Not the biggest fan of Shadows Fall but for sure better musicians in every way than Kse is.

  • iceprincess1489. killswitch came out of worchester massachusets. not boston. and howard is arguably the best singer in metal. YOU ARE NOT! don't diss someone unless your better than them. which you will never be.

  • @trae2772 definitely arguably, I like Howard and KSE, but the best? IMO that wold be Mikael Akerfeldt of Bloodbath and Opeth or maybe Christian Alvestam of Scar Symmetry and Solution 45.

  • The best cover I've ever heard! \m/

  • best cover of a sabbath song i've heard along with sleep's snowblind

  • yo try to get this up to 100,000 views

  • @FinalDemolition For what?

  • @MrAndy24deth i dunno

    just wanna see this get 100,000 views

    d:

  • @FinalDemolition im good for about 1,000 views. just doin' my part!

  • @FinalDemolition Why settle for 100,000. Why not a million? Then you can advertise and make some sick cash with Youtube.

  • @Celebrity729 as awesome as that sounds, i dont think im gonna get a partnership with youtube just for uploading Shadows Fall's albums :P

  • @FinalDemolition True dat they'll take them down for copyright

  • Nicely done. Most of the bands that try to cover Black Sabbath / Ozzy / Dio, etc. really fail. This band is great, no messing around, straight forward and a singer with his own voice and not wanting to sound like Oz (!!!). 10 out of 5 ;)

  • pretty gud akshully

  • not that bad

  • Cradle of Filth cover of Mr.Crowley is a disgrace. Bullet for my valentine cover of Crazy Train was a crock of shit. Shadows Fall cover of Bark at the moon, fucking brilliant, they didnt fuck around with it. Respect.

  • @NamelessVampire666 Don't forget Metallica's cover of "Iron Man" lol. Don't get me wrong, I love Metallica (in fact, they're my favorite band) but that shit sucked xD

  • @NamelessVampire666 Yeah. I mean, why would you fuck around with what is already a masterpiece? =)

  • @NamelessVampire666 all is in the eyes of the beholder as far as CoF and Mr. crowley but this cover is sick. Hail Shadows Fall!

  • @NamelessVampire666 Preach. I think Killswitch did a good job with dio aswell.

  • @11Bulletstopper Yeah but Dio and Ozzy are two different singers.

  • @NamelessVampire666 id have to say BFMV's cover was actually really good considering the solo was spot on

  • This is a bitch'n version of the real deal...this f**k'n kick's ass and love the band!Shadow's Fall has a new fan and by the sound's of them i know i'll love all their riff's!!! I'll have to listen to Retribution..\m/.

  • damn all seeing eye.... (album artwork)

  • Sick!

  • @IcantDiedeadenough took you long enough

  • @IcantDiedeadenough its alright

    just gets annoying seeing stupid comments of guitarists bashing other guitarists >.>'

  • @IcantDiedeadenough let me repeat myself

    who gives a fuck

    they were both great guitarists and john donais did a spectacular cover

    Randy R.I.P btw

  • Jason Bittner is a Weapon of Mass Destruction.

  • FUCK YEAH... THIS IS A SPECIAL TRIBUTE... PERFECT AND CLEAN COVER...!!

  • The solo was great. Kept the original solo but threw in some of their own style to it. Great cover, but especially the solo.

  • u guys should do crazy train :)

  • @TheShadowsofDeath92 It's already been done - but I see what you mean haha xD

  • @iSAUSAGE can u send me the link to the vid? i would appreciate it alot

  • @TheShadowsofDeath92 It's not by SF though - BFMV - sorry dude :(

  • @iSAUSAGE its kool man just send me the link to the vid lmfao XD

  • @TheShadowsofDeath92 Here ya go bud!

    /watch?v=cZDIjSKpFi4

  • gives me goosebumps....

  • stop talking about Randy and Jake

    who gives a fuck

    its still an epic song

  • is this a joke?

  • thats good but the Oz-man ist the best

  • great cover!!!!

  • really good cover

  • Best R.R guitar work since the original o.O

  • @zakieold If R.R. stands for Randy Rhoads then your wrong dude this is Jake E.Lee. just saying

  • @zakieold Haha. Jake E. Lee was the guitarist on Bark at the Moon man.

  • This cover is dead on! Shadows Fall have yet to disappoint me.

  • @TheGhostofGramyBoy99 i agree when did u firsf come across this band? just curious

  • Fuck me for a cover this is immense wow

  • I always wanted to do a cover of this song, but they beat me to it. Shame.

    \\m//

  • Wow!!!!. I didn't think you could make this song anymore energized but these guys did it! But I wish Dimebag had covered this song. Now that would've been brutal.

  • OZZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • sorry....but i disagree, yes this cover is dead on, but comparing Jonathan Donais and Matt Bachand to Randy Rhoads....im sorry it cant be done. still awesome band in their own right.

  • @oneforthefallen This song was playing by Jake.E Lee, not Randy :L

  • @xXLuciferDarkheartXx I agree. the only flaw in this cover are the vocals. but everything else was nailed perfectly.

  • Ozzy might be a god, but FUCK ME these guys pulled this off to a level that at the very least matches what Ozzy can do.

  • they played this song at mayhem fest and it totally fucking rocked, great band.

  • well for one killswitch and shadows fall both came out of boston around the same time. and besides killswitch is a major dissapointment with howard. shadows fall however, is the shit. and categorizing music is retarded there is only good music or bad music....

  • @IcePrincess1489 FINALLY SOMEONE GETS IT

  • @IcePrincess1489 I love Shadows Fall and Killswich, Howard Jones isn't a disappointment, they are both awesome.

  • @IcePrincess1489 I love Shadows Fall and Killswitch Engage, Howard Jones isn't a disappointment, they are both awesome.

  • @IcePrincess1489 lmmfao!! i agree 100% with u

  • @IcePrincess1489 shadows fall is from springfield...

  • @IcePrincess1489 I agree with everything but the last line... There is only music, No such thing as "Good" or "Bad" it all comes down to someones opinion and you know what everyone says about opinions... They are like assholes, everyone has one and they all stink!!

  • @IcePrincess1489 howard is like... GOD xD

  • @IcePrincess1489 Or there is just music and sound.

  • Those squalies made me cry. I wish I could get a sound like that!

  • @IcePrincess1489 I thought KSE was from Conneticut.Howard is'nt that bad.But SF does

    RULE!!!!

  • @IcePrincess1489 you probably think you know everything too right? everything in your comment is just wrong flat out. in fact if people think your right they are now dumber.

  • @IcePrincess1489 Dude, Howard is great, Killswitch is great, Shadows Fall is great, All That Remains is great, In Flames is great. Why can't we just enjoy the music? But i agree that categorizing music is retarded

  • well for one killswitch and shadows fall both came out of boston around the same time. and besides killswitch is a major dissapointment with howard. shadows fall however, is the shit

  • well executed cover

  • Shadows Fall is absolutely incredible!!!!!

  • strung outs version is better

  • hell yeah!

  • The drummer made this song his bitch.

  • this sucks

  • Ugh... the first solo was terrible. You don't try to recreate a solo note for note unless you can actually play it note for note.

    Other than that, it was a decent cover. The harmonized outro solo was cool.

  • Why couldn't they have put this on the first version released! Dammit!

  • @weretarantula they did

    u probably bought the first album without the bonus songs

    i bought this album the first day it came out and it had the bonus tracks with it

  • @FinalDemolition dood, if i sent you my email address, would you be able to send me this song?

  • @turaly0n nope

    just go to google

    search youtube mp3 converter

    go to the first site

    place the link of this video in the converter

    and bam you can download the song

    not that hard :P

  • @FinalDemolition thx man

  • @turaly0n no prob

  • im not a shadows fall fan..but this is a fucking great cover!

  • wtf!... i heard this song in GTA vice city its fucking great... =)

  • first time ive heard this cover. its fucking awesome!

  • nice cover...

  • the harmonics at 1:39 are beautiful

  • @darksymphonybass pinch harmonics if i may correct you xD sorry but ya kna.... haha

  • @axel66699907 well yeah thats true haha.

    but their beautiful=]

  • real good cover.

  • Best Cover Version Of A Song I've Ever Heard In My Life

  • @ThisEvilMan i wouldnt go that far, but it was good. serious question though... whats with the capital letters on every word?

  • @kitten60946 ... nah.... DVDvideosoft ;)... =P plus u get all that other stuff like dubbing tools, video rip , mp3 rip , burning onto cd tools =D...

    all free

  • much better than ozzi original

  • @ColdWarStar

    no man, ozzy´z voice has a much darker ring to it.

    got still nice thou

  • @ColdWarStar are you fucking high? not even..

  • @ColdWarStar no it is not you total tit...

  • @ColdWarStar nothing is better than an original ozzy song tbh.... aside from let me hear you scream like wtf was that shit about?

  • saw these guys in feb a few weeks before my 14th and got a shirt from one of the guitarists :D idk which one, cause i wasnt really paying attention :(

  • @medude6652 lol...idk why but i found that quite humorous. i guess that would bother me too not knowing which guiatrist it was. but still...i had to laugh.

  • this is one of my favorite covers

  • Oh wow, I can't believe I've never heard of this before. Ozzy and Shadows Fall <3

  • great band and great song

  • endin solo is crazy hott

  • pretty good cover, I like the lower tuning. The vocals don't compare to Ozzy, though =P

  • Fucking best cover of this song ive ever heard! i dont usually listen to shadows fall, im more of a thrash metal guy, like, my fav band is Megadeth, and i listen to slayer, anthrax, and testament a lot, but ive had my adventures with this kind of music, and now im actually liking it because of this cover:) oh and btw, metallica sucks:D

  • @DethTilDeath69 ahaha, that last comment gave me a good laugh:P

  • @DethTilDeath69 im just confused how you dislike metallica after liking those other bands, you cant tell me you hate ALL metallica... can you?

  • fucking good cover! but Ozzie still the best.

  • still think Somber Eyes and Of one blood are the best albums!

  • badass cover...thanks for posting this!!

  • 40,000 views, wow man this is an epic win

  • Amazing cover!

  • Shadows fall never dissapoints :O!!!

  • @CalVoFrK6532 Shadows Fall will never fall!! (hooray for terrible pun's. :P)

  • @CalVoFrK6532  Just saw them live at Mayhem Fest.. holy fucking shit were they incredible!!! They played this too!!

  • wow great fuckin songgggggggggggggg

  • hmmm, randy owns zakk and shadows fall is in their own level

  • i really like how its played, but i think he "screams" to much.

  • @baune121 its called a pinch harmonic and thats jon donais's thing so stfu its good dont hate

  • @crazedfarmer No, no. The singer screams to much! Im also a guitarplayer ;)

  • this a damn good cover

  • ALL HAIL OZZY/SHADOWS FALL

  • I would like this with a different singer, it kinda sounds like he's trying too hard.

  • i'm not much of a metalcore fan, and i love ozzy's work, but DAMN, this is the best cover i've ever seen of this song :|

  • @TheIronMetalDude I'm also more into old school metal, but you should defenitely give Shadows Fall a chance... These guys are not like Lamb of God or Caliban or similar bands.. These guys can really make music happen.

  • @TheIronMetalDude This is heavy metal/modern thrash, Shadows Fall isn't metalcore.

  • @megaluisdeth ...na they are metalcore. They have faaaar more in common with the metalcore sound than thrash.

  • @ChrissyChiChi Why because they play in C? Jon Donais is way too good for Metalcore, Metalcore bands don't cover Ozzy.

  • @megaluisdeth Na more because of their reliance on pedal tone riffs in the relative minor of their tuning, breakdowns, harsh vocals for verses clean for chorus's etc etc. They are just another band trying to be killswitch. Plenty of metalcore bands have covered old school songs, covering an old song does not change your genre, many metalcore bands have ok guitarists too.

    Thrash metal is a very very distinctive genre, this music does not fit the mold of thrash at all.

  • awesome music

  • good cover

  • one of the best covers ive ever heard

  • damn hes probably the best guitarist in metalcore

  • So sick!

  • awsome music but not the same without ozzy

  • its a decent cover, but original STILL rocketh!

  • good cover. a little different sound but retained the soul of the song. more than I can say for that pathetic example of holy diver that that one band did. 4.5 out of 5 stars for this one.

  • @Doomzdayxx u better not be talking about Killswitch Engage....

  • @lotsametalandhumor Yup, thats them. talented band. I cant stand the music though, and I hated that Dio cover.

  • awesome cover. go shadows fall!

  • I love ozzy but i like this version better in fact

  • i have this cd yet this song isnt on there... do you have to do something special to access it?

  • original is way better... but still very nice :)

  • very good cover but originals still better me thinks :DD

  • @DAVOyeyah obviously the original is better but this is still very badass!

  • @KHfan4ever23 yupppppppppppppppppppp

  • ozzy should've used the double kick peddle in his version

  • @NinjaJedi11 his drummer did a few times if you didnt notice

  • @NinjaJedi11 I Agree, if he decides to do a remix, he might wanna do just that

  • I'm probably going to get shit for saying that too.

  • I think he killed the vocals on this song...

  • Fuckin awesome

  • not bad for a cover

  • I like Shadows Fall,those dudes got some rockin songs and can REALLY play but this is nothing scecial. In fact the singing lets it down big time-the vocal actually sounds quite weak and ordinary.
