OK, I've heard some original music from "Blind Guardian". I did not understand what they are talking about in their songs! Music is played well though.
@fernominal what songs did you hear? They did an entire album about the simarilion, the story behind lord of rings. Also mythological and religious questions are part of it. And modern fantasy writers like Stephen King, where they got their name of. Hope i could help!
Thanks for the info! Appearently I look look foolish now cause I am still behind, and have not even seen the "Lord of the rings" movie yet! (and probably wont) It's kind of like the "Harry Potter" series of movies, (which in fact I have seen a number of those movies, from the first) but you have to see them in the series intended, or else you are lost! for another example: The Bible, you have to read it,(all) in order to make an analogy about it, within your life!
I feel that the first verion of a song (in my case Judas Priest) is always going to be the best version, but I have got to say that Blind Guardian does this song excellent! the singer has a awsome voice, and the lead guitars sound as if Glen Tipton and K K Downing are playing this song live! Drums and Bass guitar sound good too! Great choice of a song!! I'm going to look into this band some more! I'd like to hear some originals from this band!
@fernominal Judas Priest will have the best version of this song regardless, but Blind Guardian comes damn close with this cover. Hansi Kursch, like Rob halford, has a extremely unique voice characteristic. Marcus Siepen and Andre Olbrich are very brilliant guitarists. as for Thomen Stauch (no longer in the band) is another great person for this song. Idk when this was recorded, so I cant tell you if it was Hansi or Oliver Holzworth playing bass. either way, they did good.
I prefer this version. Hansi is simply the best singer of all the time ( for me ). His voice sounds like Rob Halford, Ronnie James Dio, Freddie Mercury, James Hetfield ( the early years ) with a special touch of him. God bless Kürsch.
Odio que la gente estúpida se ponga a comparar cual versión es mejor. No se trata de eso, un cover es un tributo, un respeto hacia cierta canción o banda y ya con eso basta. Ambas son agradables a la escucha. Punto! Superenlo, ambas bandas han hecho historia a su propia manera. Ponerse a comparar y ofender no va a cambiar nada!! GET OVER IT
@IsaacVicJim I really hate stupid people who compare which version is better. It is not about that, a cover is a tribute, a way of respect to a song or a band and that is good enough. Both of them are really good. Thats it. Get over it, both bands have made a great carrear, their own way. Start comparing and ofending wont change a thing... GET OVER IT
I love the original. It's performed beautifully by the voice of metal, but I honestly think Blind Guardian's version is more sorrowful and depressing. Hansi breaks up the high notes with more, I don't know, roughness? I will admit, I'm partial to BG, being my favorite metal band, but Halford is untouchable.
Ok, Blind Guardian is the only group that could make such a wonderfull cover but it cannot even reach the original. For one reason only: Because it's Judas Priest's spirit and noone else can play a song like them. The same goes for Blind Guardian.
Would you imagine how would Bard's Song be from a Judas Priest cover???
Clearly some of the people here have just come to bitch about the cover and have hardly any experience of Blind Guardian whatsoever, I mean seriously, Priest are my favourite band, but i can acknowledge that Hansi is a fantastic vocalist, because i love Blind Guardian aswell.
when you hit a high note with too much residence only shows your lack of singing experience, when i sing it comes out like this when i hit the notes wrong.
trust me rob makes it sound easy, this guy sounds like shit,
hes low notes are sooooo weak.
id rather hear ripper do this song.
or better yet how about jeff scott soto or freaking motorhead
Judas Priest- это легенда металла, преклоняюсь перед этими парнями, а перед это песней особенно-она одна из лучших не могу наслушаться, в те времена бы к ним на концерт!
Excellent cover! Well done guys. Having played the song myself before audiences I know what it takes to get it right and you guys do this song justice. Great job on vocals and guitars. Hell even the drums sound great! JP would be proud.
enough for the Blind Guardian that they made 2 of the best covers ever . this and Dio's Dont Talk To Strangers ... even iron maiden failed to cover The Ripper of judas , and Beyond the realms of death isn't any easy , not saying that Iron Maiden ain't great , but my point is , each band got a different style that makes it special among the others , the guardians did it well , its a good cover .
As said before, this cover is just great. I don't get why people spit at Hansi here ; I guess it must be some kind of basic fanboy reaction when they hear a cover of their favorite band, no matter how good it may be they just think it sucks 'cause it's not the original.
How can anyone think this..."singer" is better than Halford? He does a mix of...what seems to be poking fun at Rob's sexuality in the verses, and death metal screaming. This isn't a Bodom song, this is Judas Priest, 1970s, not death metal.
hansi's voice is much "richier" than halford's! sorry but hansi is more talented as a vocalist in my opinion. thumb me down or up for that but its kinda the truth
@DaddoFatto94 He is and they both are very talented! But i prefer hansi's voice! i think its more melodic! (yeah i ve just my opinions a bit since the last time :P p.s sorry for my bad english)
What does it for me about this version is that Hansi does something besides the original throw-away non-melody in the chorus. Also, he sounds amazing, he's got a lot more body in his voice.
Un cover realizado con muchisimo gusto y muchisimo tacto, se muestra un profundo respeto por el mensaje original. Además Hansi da un clase de canto que te pone los vellos de punta.
@cliffthelightning Obviously the priest are the gods, but dude, Hansi Kursch is an AMAZING vocalist as well. He is no halford, but hes incredible all the same.
Defenetly one of best covers there is. Doesn't beat the original but still hail to Blind Guardian, they got really good sound and Hansi is damn good singer in his way!
Why does he sound like Big Gay Al when he's not screaming. I mean Rob Halford is gay and he sounds much harder then this guy. Anyone who says this version can even come close to the original needs to get his head examined ASAP!
@barbarianbro first off Hansi sounds nothing like Big Gay Al, secondly being gay or not has nothing to do with your singing voice, and thirdly its because when Hansi sings cleanly he has a lisp. which media always portrays gay men as being feminine and having really bad lisps which is probably why you think he sounds like Big Gay Al.
you don't like?ok.hey,do you know how hansi kürsch can sing?he pitches his voice up to unbelivable tones and it doesn't sound gay or wrong or whatever and he can scream very very powerfull (much powerfuller than in this cover) and he can growl,he can sing slow and melodic with a breathtaking voice,he can sing very very quick with a very clear voice and in my opinion there are not much singers who can come close to him.what do you think?
@BlindMetaler there`s only one METAL GOD!!!, that´s what I think, even is a good cover, with a good voice... so don´t mix his sexualitty, this is so child!
@Azurian thats cuz Ralf Scheepers should have gotten the gig when Halford left the band. Scheepers is the right choice when it comes to Priest stuff, way better than Ripper Owens IMO. Why the guys in JP never recognized Scheepers and his raw vocal talent for doing their stuff has always baffled me. Look for Tyran' Pace stuff, which is Scheepers band before he joined Gamma Ray, listen to the song "Shockwaves" from the cd Long Live Metal, you would swear its Priest's Hell Bent for Leather.
I naturally prefer Blind Guardian to Judas Priest. I shouldn't really be comparing these two bands, but I wanted to say that I have a preference to this version. Criticize me all you want. The original is an amazing song.
Both those singers are better ballad singers than the ripper. I would disagree with him being shit because He can scream better than both of them and I think they have had more off nights than him. Live After Death is when Bruce had something with his voice. He actually sounds better now. I don't see guys that are shit performing in 4 projects. The opinion that you just gave me is shit.
I like blind guardian, but they haven't had the balls to experiment musically as much. Though I think for that reason blind guardian have a unique sound that cannot be duplicated.
Not bad. No one beats Halford on vocals, though. This is one of my all time favorite songs, and Priest still own it. The only exception is Halford's version on Live Insurrection.
Halford's voice has a softer tone than ripper and Hansi. Halford is almost better at singing the rockier Judas Priest stuff. His voice is more suited for that.
reading the lyrics to the right its kinda sad seeing how far away the priest has gone from intelligent lyrics. if only they would write stuff like this more.
The only version that can hold up to the original! Hansi is definitely one of the best singers of all time! Can't wait for the new album! I'm sure guardian won't dissapoint!
it was good, the singer had the ability to turn agressive at the chorus, the softer side of his voice in the verse though seems "put on" rob sang it naturally
I see what your saying, but I think he did a better job vocally than most other covers I've heard of this song. most cut it musically, but their vocals make me cringe.
Yeah it's about suicide. It tells us that suicide is right of any individual . That if world is more than one can bear he has a right to ease his pain. And what is the most important nobody who killed himself cannot be condemded due to fact that he or she has right to do with life what he or she wants.

The heavy part of this song sound nice! Blind guardians in a gadda da vida cover is also great.

This is one of maybe five covers i have heard in my entire life that is actually better than a great original.
Staying true to it is probably why.

it was good, the singer had the ability to turn agressive at the chorus, the softer side of his voice in the verse though seems "put on" rob sang it naturally

I see what your saying, but I think he did a better job vocally than most other covers I've heard of this song. most cut it musically, but their vocals make me cringe.

The lyrics are awesome, Rob Halford and Glenn Tipton are the best songwriters ever!

Yeah it's about suicide. It tells us that suicide is right of any individual . That if world is more than one can bear he has a right to ease his pain. And what is the most important nobody who killed himself cannot be condemded due to fact that he or she has right to do with life what he or she wants.
