"Gently" - Slipknot (Original Version)

[magnegrobiz]

wow slipknot have come a long way

[KapitanPisoar1]

This one I love...

[lazathor]

i like every album slipknot has ever released. this song is epic and so is the version in IOWA. this one is a more thrashy angry version and the IOWA version is a more emotional version. they both have merit :)

[stavrias97]

the original version of ''gently" is in slipknot headquarters on google

[CrazyShooter199]

This is not the original version. The original version was recorded in 1991-1992. Search "Gently basement sessions" on youtube.

[ChrissCalico]

i thot dis wuz da only version of gently til i got IOWA

[CrazyShooter199]

Is this the 1992 version? If not does anyone know where to find it? Simple search on youtube doesn't show any results :(

[pete123545]

@CrazyShooter199 Obviously not if it says 1996!

[CrazyShooter199]

@pete123545 Oh right lol.

[pete123545]

@CrazyShooter199 haha no worries

[deucebovel]

that totally sucks, shit how bad the production is



[CrazyShooter199]

@deucebovel Dude, I respect your opinion and shit, but how is this song's production bad? I think this song is great, much better than the IOWA one, but just a BIT too slow. Is it was 20 bpm faster it would be my favourite song. But anyway, all three versions of gently (MFKR one, one from Crowz with Corey and the one from IOWA) are the best. Well, all of slipknot's songs ever are the best.

[ChainsOfJustice6]

Best Slipknot song. better than all hope is gone shit.

[D4NK23]

the singer sounds like the guy from sepultura??

[Lomaxxx53]

@D4NK23 yes, anders was always bashed with that

[jaegere91]

aynone else feeling the Metallica-like intro?

[kevindakameradude]

@jaegere91 if u mean metallica intros that doesnt hav james saying "HUH" or "YEAH" then yeah im hearing some

[jaegere91]

@kevindakameradude i mean more like the atmospheric, escalating, and instrumental intro

[untipito123]

Anders ♥

[allhopeisgone091]

Yeah! ANDERS!! Back To Slipknot :D

[InstigatorsDeadFlesh]

Erinnert mich ein bisschen an Pantera...da war Slipknot noch gar nicht so schlecht...

[caselli95]

muy bueno el video



[CapnKeys]

this version is sooo much better

[CareChimba77]

This other version is much better.

[19RiCciO86]

Wonderful intro.......

[12babydad]

is this rly the old version? at first it do not sound like it

[EdwardJohnLeeK]

The ultimate version of Gently would have the music from this and the vocals from the IOWA version.

[Rikukarasuma]

Nu metal

[komer666]

The guitarrist that's playing this song with mick is the one thats playing at this time with Slipknot in paul's place?

[TheUnknownLegend1234]

@komer666 Yeah I believe it is "Donnie Steele."

[rkoTLKrko2]

@TheUnknownLegend1234 naaaa is Josh Brainard

[jasoN97100]

I prefer the Iowa version but this one is amazing at:00-1:23!

[projectBryce]

love both....own vibe for each and always makes a maggot happy :D

[XxbloodyhartxX1]

i really like the Iowa version better because Anders is no match for Corey......no offense.....

[InSingularity]

this was on my version of "Iowa" i got... mind you I did download it. But after i ordered it. Anyway I was always confused at who the band was

[zabuza836]

@InSingularity was ur version a red 1?

[HoboTheMoodyGhost]

If only Anders had a better voice. Cause the instrumentals are great. But God, Corey is so much better.

Return to this style for a Paul tribute album, yes?

[InSingularity]

@HoboTheMoodyGhost It's a different style. Anders is more death metal, and corey is more punk/rock.

[HoboTheMoodyGhost]

@InSingularity I suppose that's true.

Anders' voice has grown on me a bit, but I guess I just always thought that Corey felt... Stronger when he sang.

[komer666]

@InSingularity punk/rock? WTF MAN?

[CarlosVonSexron1]

Must have been listening to a lot a Metallica whilst writing this

[shatterddreamz13]

it's pretty damn good i'll give you that!!! and the inro is amazing!!!!!!!!!! But while these vocals are pretty good, he doesn't hold a candle to corey!!!!!

[TheXBLPlayers]

is this Corey signing or somebody else?

[ProjectAmorphous]

@TheXBLPlayers Theres this thing called google.

Anders Colsefini

[TheXBLPlayers]

@ProjectAmorphous Smart ass

[ProjectAmorphous]

@TheXBLPlayers you're on the internet, you shouldnt have to ask kid lol...

[archenemy456]

awesome snare drum sounds good !!

and awesome guitars

[hcwmusic55]

Lol, i got downloaded tabs with Tuxguitar and saw all this and was like "what the.." then i remember this version

[thegnome85]

can anyone else hear the Steve Howe influence at the mellower parts?

[bossgridiron]

thank you for posting this version.... effin amazing. i lost this cd so long ago, first edition.... maaaaaaaan.

[LobotomizedZombie]

Anders makes me poop tears.

[falloist]

its not the "original" its just from the Mate.Feed.Kill.Repeat album. iowa album has a remake of this song like iowa song which is a remake of killers are quiet,also from MFKR album

[Languidula]

This is real Slipknot. I still love'em.

Thank you, guys :')

[elsantyshady]

R.I.P Paul Gray

miss you

We know you're grabbing good music wherever you are

Long live Paul Gray!!!!!!!!!!!! ........



[Ethereality92]

The first minute and a half of this is beautiful, could make a fantastic little song out of that melody. Too bad they didn't really =/

[NyHeroSpeech]

Anders Calstephani  the original Slipknot vocalist needs to come back haha.. he is fucking epic! very dark sounding!!

[NyHeroSpeech]

You Can def hear the Mettalica influence in there!! haha

[NyHeroSpeech]

MFKR was a fucking great album/demo/E.P whatever you wanna call it.. it was so raw and not mixxed very well and very chunky and well it was a true metal album, with some blues/jazz it was great wish i still had my copy.. :(

[blackdawgste34]

I learned this on guitar today, should I post a cover video?

[choppedstrings]

this isn't bad but the newer version is way better, i understand they didnt have the money for the awesome recording but i like the mood of newer version ps corey kills this guy

[the99skaters]

this album is realy horrible i swear my head is gonna explode this is the ony slipknot album i dont like

[1992gunsnroses]

welcome back donnie steele, and rip paul gray

[hobbsymaggot]

Thats joey jordison on the front ae?

[Kelsterperson1]

This version is waaaayyyy better....and HEAVIER! :D

[alexgiotalina]

@Kelsterperson1 man r u into drugs????? if u dont there's something really wrong with your ears......!!!

[alexgiotalina]

@Kelsterperson1 man r u into drugs???? cause if u dont there is something really wrong with your ears.....!!!!

[Kelsterperson1]

@alexgiotalina No, im perfectly fine.  However heavy this is, is just based entirely on one's opinion

[chopstickSH]

@Kelsterperson1 Heaviness is also based on production quality (recording, instruments, mixing + mastering). I luv this version for its sick intro. But heavier? Nah, not for me. It lacks drums n vocals especially. Well, to each his/her own.

[notre1988]

Why does the original sound so much damn heavier then the remake? My fav Slipknot song and Corey isnt in it which is dissapointing \m/

[hobbsymaggot]

Ive listened to both versions a thousand times, The original is better, cleaner heavier more original

[DeVonte136]

i like corey better but his version doesnt even compare to Anders Colsefini's version

[Marulioides]

sehr geile nummer !!! unglaublich

[40ozToFreedom89]

i loved to play that breakdown from 4:00 to 410 back when i played guitar......

[SuperPistachio]

I need to try get myself this album at some point in my life, even if it costs 1500 bucks like I've seen it on sold on ebay once. Stay sic fuckers

[MetalForeverBlack]

@SuperPistachio i am actually selling this Album to anyone who is interested, i wont charge 1500 for a true fan. you or anyone interested send me a message here and ill show where to contact me, hails brothers

[1macaron]

this song is fucken mean, mellow intro than it jus fucken blows you away, awesome

[MonsterMister]

Fuck, hvor jeg elsker kage!! =D og Slipknot!

[artario146]

@bobagx its his music style ..... and your right in my opinion just more metal but COREY<3 fucking kickass

[pegeou]

i love the instrumental intro its so beautiful and i prefer allot more corey <3 :D

[Bobagx]

i like the singer allot better than Corey. Don't get me wrong Corey is awesome. But this sounds more Metal to me.

[fiamaiden]

6 people are christians

[wenstynesvlogs]

@fiamaiden well thats funny cuz slipknot rnt satanic, dumbass

[Pwnzjoomom]

@fiamaiden lol u do know that slipknot isn't satanic right? besides, i'm christian and i love metal. i'm a maggot for life!

[psychoxxalien]

@fiamaiden hahaha ! lol.

[Cropse666]

@fiamaiden hey I'm a christian and gave this a thumbs up

[Kelsterperson1]

@fiamaiden Im Christian, and SlipKnoT is my fav band!

[azzianazzian]

@fiamaiden so are joey and corey :)

[AndreiEbi]

3:56...epic...

[jump23kid]

thank you god for corey

[zylelfskariranariza]

Stay (SIC) maggots

[WarlockAshlii]

I prefer this version, it's more brooding...The intro has an amazing feel to it. Corey is a better singer, but MFKR Slipknot was amazing in genre busting work.

[HoboTheMoodyGhost]

The instrumentals are FUCKING awesome, they sound like a goddamn big four-era thrash metal band, and that's awesome.

But I much prefer Corey's vocals... I think he has much more talent.

[MEDVE1978]

MFKR is the best album of Slipknot. It is filled with creativity, the mix of styles, a huge amount of energy.

If they had chosen this way they could have been become one of the greatest artists in alternative heavy metal / rock.

They have chosen to play heavier, which I think is a shame..

[BalicDario]

mfkr is shit..but this song is awesome :D

[Pint65]

6 peeps have SHIT taste in music

[Pint65]

Fuckin savage !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[masterreflex]

@fuddyduddy27 lol did you randomly say that to see what people would say? lol if so you're a legend,

[johnnyricapa]

@fuddyduddy27 So nail it in ur ass

[jukka252]

@fuddyduddy27 12 inch and growing baby!!!!!

[kokometallica]

@fuddyduddy27 ninety inch?

[MagicAttackEvolution]

@fuddyduddy27 why would we care that :S

[BullWoOrm]

@fuddyduddy27 soo fuckin good ¡¡¡

[zxaha1]

@fuddyduddy27 die

[SNIPER12431243]

FUUCK this song is fucking the best

[akunazeckzen]

love this version

[tjalfedaugaard]

Its sound a little bit like metallica......

[vincentvalentin3]

@tjalfedaugaard .... Or not :s

[tjalfedaugaard]

@vincentvalentin3 Or shot up!

[ikyg]

paul gray is the deadest mother fucker ever...probably sitting in his porsche, snorting coke and saying "fuuuuck, these maggots are dumb"

[cejason]

@ikyg hey, dont be a cock all your life

[akunazeckzen]

@ikyg and eminem is looking at you wanting your slim anus

[mustdieproductions]

@akunazeckzen PWNED!

[ikyg]

@akunazeckzen he must need glasses because i'm kinda chubby ;) btw, i am sorry if i offended anyone with that post. i just did not want to admit to myself that Paul was actually gone...i remember the first time rumors were spread, not long after the release of Iowa, that he had died in a car accident...i'm still hoping that he IS sitting in his porsche, snorting coke and giggling BECAUSE HE WAS SO DAMN GOOD!!! who wouldn't want to hope that it was a lie?? :(

[akunazeckzen]

@ikyg even though we wish he was...he isnt...

[TheXDarkCarnage]

this songs whole beginning gives me the feel of metallicas nothing else matters

[11JimMorrison]

@TheXDarkCarnage never thought on that, nice point :)

[bakedevryday]

is that joey on the cover?

[Nathanieloy1]

I dont think so...

[punker4life19]

@KnoTMaggot133 You can like Shawn better, I just prefer Corey. :P

[ChrisTripleSixxx]

the whole song is awesome but the intro is a perfection

[Motzirocki]

is that Corey? It sounds like onother guy. James, Mick, Sid, Joey, Shawn, Greg or... R.I.Paul Gray.

[Maggotz555666]

@Motzirocki its anders colsefini on vocals slipknot's original vocalist

[NickWaughTv]

@Motzirocki It's Anders Colsefini

[fadingshadow122]

RIP PAUL GREY

[aeunuchsthroat]

MFKR was something new and unique...almost a blend of hardcore and jazz at times. In his own sphere, Anders was a really good frontman. I used to think this album really sucked, but now I can appreciate it. Confessions is an unsung classic as well. This album is a gem.

[akromassword]

coreys version is great, yes. but i feel that the slipknot feel isn't there as much as in this version

[skalamopilotes]

this version with corey on it. would kill'em all ! lol

[tardy01]

I like the guitars in the Beginning. Almost sounds like Opeth.

[Asskikeradz]

MAGGOT TIL I DIE! SLIPKNOT TIL IM IN MY GRAVE!

[1henameless]

this is awesomeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee­eeeeeee

[gastonhess]

R.I.P Pual Gray !

[alexandsalsa]

@gastonhess Pretty sad eh? When I knew about him, this is the song I wanted to listen to...Strange.

[yzdit]

@gastonhess Pual ! ROFFEL

[ZvVoDKa]

@gastonhess Yeaman tradgedy

[hobbsymaggot]

@gastonhess

Paul*

[emzybbycakez]

@gastonhess

*Paul



[Jvergakis]

its anders singing the original vocalist before corey

[Pennys1]

I'm learning this song for a school concert. Well the guitar parts of course : )

[mouse038]

5 star band...no doubt.

[MrConorlee]

completely different!

[loudandheavy1]

It took me forever to find the original version.i heard it in middle school when i was unemployed.now i'm 22,out of school to be a medical assistant and guess what,still unemployed!!! @ least i found the song.

[LaraLauretta]

hahaha

[jezzerusuk]

@milosthepunk Music Genre definition is stupid and too micro managed now a days... it should be considered... MUSIC

[slaprico]

@sprayboy666 yeah especially the intro is a lot like metallica

[Gatugatuno]

Is the one of the picture Joey Jordison? He looks like him

[unholyangel55]

@Gatugatuno Yeah that's Joey.

[NorwegishGuys]

Love both versions of this song! <3

The guitar rapes :)

[MoltenzSuperhot]

(Y)

[aallhopeisgone09]

i don;t think that's corey. but corey sings it way better on Iowa

[careyseahawks57]

@aallhopeisgone09 on mate.feed.kill.repeat. they didnt have corey. their singers name was anders col-something. i cant remember his exact last name, but it started with col..corey didnt join until a couple years before they recorded their first untitled cd. they have a "demo" like this one with half corey and half anders. its called Crowz

[Element4Life1197]

i think its colsfeni or something

[metalhead420fuq]

i like this one better

[mystikemo]

the guitars sound different but the voices isnt different that much....

stil either way u put it this songs rock MFKR and iowa style

[Rovdyret89]

i think all the albums rules, some are good when you are in one mood, the others are good when you are in another mood. like the old ones is more aggresive, but if dont really feel like going crazy but jus, i dont know, sad you might prefer all hope is gone. well thats what i think :) stay (SIC)

[sauzan100]

great intro and brilliant song!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AmyTheAvenger]

does anyone else prefer this version to the iowa one? i like this one alot more, even though they both kick ass..

[xSoWxShadow]

@AmyTheAvenger Yeah, I do. That last riff is introduced so much better in this version.

[Emmanuel12345metal]

I know all five albums but my Fave go like

1.Vol:3Subliminal Verses

2.Iowa

3.Slipknot

4.MFKR

5.All Hope Is Gone

[maurolplp]
