I think they used this version on Smallville I can't remember which season or episode but I've been looking for this version after I heard it on there cuz I LOVE IT haha
@anderskd Not scary movie you wiener. It's played in the first scene with Sydney&Billie when he's trynna get in her pants. and it's on SCREAM. Not scary movie
i like everyone else admit this isnt ville valo, but this is still a good song regardless. i also looked up the tabs for acoustic and found this is a moderatly difficult song due to the spaceing between each frett. so i must say if you like to learn how to play songs well, this would be the version to learn.
its not VILLE singing this song here...its clearyl to hear
the original is of course bei Blue Oyster Cult but this cover is by another famous musician..but i can't remember the name..but check out some sites and google it or smth..but its definately not A BIT HIM
@overdose311090 now i'm not retarded...i guess u are..because u believe this is ville singing there xD...its obviously its NOT ville...gosh this version is even on an album by this musician called GUS BLACK
..don't call me "retarded" if you don't know the truth..and yeah...if you think you are a "Him fan" or smth...then..think about it again..because would would notice that this is definatley not ville
@fallen661 HIM does not play this cover ._. gosh why the people dont get it..it doesnt even soudn like villes voice...this cover is by gus black..over and out
i agree with gothdom69. kool5657 if u dont have anything to put into this conversation or any musical intellect for that matter.. then maybe you should "shut up" dumb ass.
I think that I understand that Blue Oyster Cult made the original, okay?
But I'm just saying you don't have to go flaming the band, go flame every band in the world if you don't like remakes. They're not gonna sound like the original and that's life...
Oh man you are not a really great him fan did you have "greatest lovesongs vol.666"????? listen to track 8 that is HIM!!!!!!! this is from the soundtrack scream!!!!!!!
I have that CD. I have every single song they have every made. I also have the songs with HIM and The Rasmus. So yeah. I am pretty sure I am a giant fan. o.O
i agree with you!! this dude has anything to do with ville valo! i don't give a fuck who is but. he is not ville, if u're a real HIM u should now the voice of ville you cars1O dumbshit
hah i dont think you really need to be a real fan of HIM to figure out how different is this voice from ville's...you just need to hear a single song by them...:P it's obvious this is not HIM
Ha you're either a liar or you have a terrible memory. I looked it up and went to at least five different websites and littlemissbigtime is right, this is Gus Black not HIM. Gus Black recorded this for the Scream soundtrack. HIM does cover this song but their version is not acoustic and sounds nothing like this.
This track belongs in the soundtrack of a very impacting, tragic film. Maybe M. Night Shyamalan's new movie The Happening? Haha, or The Mist should've used it.
this is not HIM is Gus Black you freaks
