hmm.. sorry but this is really bad.. the real song goes i would walk.. hes singing im gonna walk... that just doesent fit very good.. and also.. the accent is really nesessary for this song <.<... boo!
it's funny, he's makes a new beat on the song, I have the song with a japanisch accent, and here the song, and this is the best! Sorrie. Alex is my man!!
I like his eurovision song, but seriously REMIXING a scottish song with a RUSSIAN ACCENT (Yes i know he's from belarus but thats what it sounds like) just dosent work and it sounds so cheesy.
This is actually quite a different sound from Rybak! Is more norwegian folklore-sounding than is other songs that's more inspired by old sovjetic folk-lore.
I like it, but he could have choosen a different song to make a cover out of.
Being an edinburgh boy 500 miles by the proclaimers is a song i have pretty much been brought up on especially being a hibby aswell. This version is truly awful and that is an honest no bias opinion. Fair enough the guy song at eurovision deserved to win but that doesn't make him a superstar who can play anything. I never thought i would hate this song but somehow ryback has pulled it off.
Sorry you feel it that way. Me, I think it is ok. Think it's great when some artists makes their own versions of others work. Sometimes its great, sometimes it's poor. And when someone thinks it's poor, it*s ALWAYS some who thinks it*s the BEST. Right?
Sorry I can't actually understand what your saying lol. Are you saying I think its good but im saying its poor. I was a bit harsh I think in what I said but to me the original blows this version out of the water. Fair enough I can see other people may think opposite but that is my opinion.
Sure, he's a good singer and all, but he's no Scott. and he didn't even write the song, the Proclaimers did, and they're real Scotts. Dia is Muire Duit, ta me go maille, because this guy. Faker.

I think alexander is an okay singer, just not with this song.

What I like the most is:
'But I'm gonna walk 500 miles
And I'm gonna walk 500 more
Just to be the man who walks 1000 miles
To fall down at your door'
this song makes me happy
and I love to be happy, so I love the song! :D

This is great, Maybe I could sing this to someone I love, the lyrics is so meaningful.
Another great song from Rybak.
Good Job Alexander.
I really like the dancing part of the music. It makes me dance.
Here from: Philippines
"When I'm Working, Yes I know I'm gonna be, I'm gonna be the man who's working hard for you." <<------------ Thats my favorite part. Hehehehe ^_^
Really, it makes me dance....
Looking forward for another one.
