Hard Luck Woman 「X Japan Cover」

[anknick]

Well, their "Engrish" is much better and much closer to English than any other Japanese band I've ever heard XD I laik it!

[AlanQuaker]

@anknick You have to listen to Ellegarden !

[machomaddness1]

"You'll be a hard wruck woman"... :/  hahaha

[Gnipez]

Wow!! I knew that Hide has a very nice voice from his solo project

but this cover is freaking amazing !! he is talented!



[Meowfest13]

what the hell is a hard ruck woman.......

[JoeGibb]

@Meowfest13 Engrish yo. The "L" sound doesn't translate very well into Japanese.

[Rozenpandachan]

SO FREAKING AMAZING!

[xfranczeskax]

Jesus, who unearthed this from where? Tell me tell me pls! And here I thought I knew every single piece X did...

[monmor33]

I love it !!! And hide... every time I see him on this video - just can't stop smiling :)))

[sickranium]

Timing's horrible, Hide's engrish is kinda weird, the bass player is way overdoing it, and the vocals are not even always in tune. I'm in love with it!!!!

[DOGPOUNDBREW]

hyde ,, rest in peace buddie ,,,we miss you ......

[Rozenpandachan]

@DOGPOUNDBREW hide not hyde...hyde's still alive...

[DOGPOUNDBREW]

@Rozenpandachan dead as a door knob ....died many years ago

[hardluckboogie]

@Rozenpandachan Hide died on May 2, 1998  officially deemed his death a suicide. later that week three fans had done copycat suicides

[rocknrolla12992]

hide's voice is alot like peter criss' actually, really cool cover

[monmor33]

Hide... so cuuuuuuuute!!!

[malcolm6669]

My cover is 100000000x better than that lol...

[tobbaddol]

[Serkozi90]

[RaidenWKW]

[aCit0ofUmi]

This is freaking awesome..!!!My favorite band playing my another first ever favorite band song...!!!!

[kaisaai9]

I can't take them serious when they can't even pronounce 'luck' like native speakers do, so I just settle with staring at hide. XD Beautiful as always, that hide.

[machrisr2000]

Someone's gonna call me racist, and I think these guys did a GREAT job, but I crack up every time the lead singer goes "hard ruck woman". Hahahaha.

[spandexislovexx]

15 people are Hard Ruck Romans.

[miliardo1985]

[nyamn]

ハモってるとこがいいね（＾＾）

[phodem12pm]

[seangerrymusic]

Great Cover!

[nellykiss123]

aMO A loS kISs Y mE guSto

Esta VeRSiOn Muy BUEnO

[BEEGER1]

What's a "Hard Ruck Woman", Hide?

X Japan should've done more KISS covers...I'd love to hear them do "Detroit Rock City" or "Creatures of the Night".

[kensvs]

1:33 i think Hide forgot the lyrics XD

[dedlyduo1217]

well, it's certainly interesting hearing this song sung with a Japanese accent. kinda neat, actually

[AlexandraMercury]

This is one of the best KISS covers I've heard. KISS is my favorite active band, and I love X Japan very much as well. Just because their first language isn't English, it does not affect how awesome the cover is. Toshi's and hide's voices remind of Peter Criss. Except for minor errors, this version is almost perfect. And those of you making fun of their accents--YOU try singing in Japanese. Believe me, it's hard. I've tried it. ;)

[carriexjapan]

OMG ADORABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!! <3 hide :D

[boocho1]

..just found this...I think there is probably eight thousand "hard ruck woman" comments...yer all basterds....I rearry ruv you...I hate you all....

[brib333]

His sound is a terrible, good sound.

[Kissito27]

@XJAPANbassHEATH Idon't know man, this group is new for me

[willkeil]

lol hard rock women....I gotta say they did a great job.......despite the language barrier...Bravo!!!

[murashiable]

This is a perfect cover. I see that X-Japan feeling this song like KISS. It is perfect.

[elkrakem]

i love this song,very exellent version.......kiss for all

[762459]

now who wants to, rock and rorr arr nite?

[DemonSasukesTrance]

I love hide's voice!!!

[SpiritedPixie64]

Damn this is cute and a real gem to find! They are both like bashful kids singing this....and hide is showing a shy side - love it!!

[elantichivas1]

[elantichivas1]

ahah HARD RUCK WOMAN

[LeCutter]

Rags, sairors onree daughter.

[bigvern1975]

Rard ruck rumon!!!! ruckin shite!!!!

[flavour1970]

i reary ruv you

[spase33]

I thought this was Hard Luck Woman. Not, Hard Ruck Woman. LMFAO!!!!!

[ryoohki]

@spase33 It's just Engrish... the Japanese language has no L sounds so when they speak or sing in English, the L's come out as r's or w's

[ttaurus393]

This is soooo funny

[bladelovers]

I fell for this the first time I watched it*_*

[KirneH004]

The song is good, but the tempo is just a little too fast.

[beastking55]

i think this sucks

[KibaInuzuka2591]

I love hide's voice <3

[dormilonn]

HARD ROCK RAMEN! XD

[cronos666xxx]

HARD RUCK RAWMEN? JAJAJAJ

[Pompouscherry]

Don't you think hides voice sounds alot different on this video than it does later during his solo career?

oh well it sounds just as amazing.

[thenewtitle26]

@Pompouscherry yeah, I think he got vocal training later on, so that may be the difference you're hearing. But in any case, he's our hide

[Pompouscherry]

@thenewtitle26 yeh your probably right about the vocal coaching, don't know why I didn't think of that. He is our hide, always has and always will be one of the best!

[designerx2006]

Hard Ruck Rowman?

[TheYidMan]

I reary rove ryou! Rofl! But I love it!

[lorenzostaunovo]

why is the guy singing so pale? is he sick?

[adropofcolor]

it's makeup. it's visual kei.

[BunnyArato]

It's makeup

[CzarColossus]

I think this is F%^&ING HILARIOUS!!!!

[kuroda0]

I love the youtube members, they're so stupid and previsible.

Anyway, this cover roxx.

[thedarkhaunter]

n00b they are fucking horrible

[lem1968a1]

listen at 1:10 I reary rove you chinese hahah

[fanfulladalodi79]

Loser, It's japanese, not chinese.

[chocomiku]

X Japan was and IS the best, and

are highly influenced by KISS.

Dont say bad things about them if

you dont know who they are. And X

did an awesome job, just cuz of their accents

doesn't mean they are bad musically. At least they try.

Kiss would be proud that they can touch

people of all nations.

[eyewitnessol]

Haha hide was so shy at the end!

Thats so cute!

probably because he thought that he didnt sing well !

his voice did sound abit weird,but that was too cute of him!

[restsama]

well its a shame they dont show the 3rd guitarplayer, the drummer, and the bassists face..

i think it is from 1992.

[beastking55]

they suck they screwed that song up kiss ever hears this they would be pissed please stop singing

[thedarkhaunter]

yea

[beastking55]

THEY SING LIKE FAGS

[tait316]

This is great. I never thought I would see my favorite all time Japanese band doing a cover of my favorite all time American bands song.....which incidentley is my 2nd favorite Kiss song. Good stuff.

[96radster]

toshi and hide X japan ....

[JoeGibb]

Okay aside from the engrish, its a good cover. Stop hating.

[Jim1671]

whats with the japanese boy george? harr rook ruminn

[Shaunyrawrs]

"rags i reary ruv you." seriously i thought the whole "japanese cant prounounce the L sound" thing was a joke. but its true according to this.

[Motleycrue3Kizz]

they cont sing right! wtf!

[Bibizsu]

aww...hide in the end...very sweet^^

[ChevalierAguila]

The letter "L" doesn't exist in japanese language, thus the difficulty for native japanese speakers in pronuncing it right. They pronunce it as "R"

[volutecello]

Love hide in this clip...esp at the end where he acted like he was embarrased and didn't know what to do

[Xarian]

XD this is epic.

[lexmarks567]

she sounds a little like peter criss

[hirukosama]

she is a he actually

[PinkHidetoMatsumoto]

Where is this from? I'm so in love with it!! 8D

[cehesosa]

¡¡¡RASENGAN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[durandsynkula]

I have to hand it to these guys and KISS and America. I cannot recall a song I ever heard that was completely in another language that I was compelled to learn, sing, or play. It is an honor.

[StressedWetKitty]

Love It!

[ace69er]

Hard ruck wooman!

Very well played!

Totally GAY singer!

[chingvang559]

I bet you didn't realized that you just made negative comment towards a Legendary band. A band that other bands respect so much, because they respect other bands first.

[ace69er]

Legendary? Only KISS is legendary.

DOESN'T change the fact the singer is gay.

Thye might only be legendary in Japan, KISS are legendary world wide!

[chingvang559]

You are a racist moron. Kiss IS legendary and these guys are paying their respect, because they are not Racist like you, and they actually respect other bands, unlike YOU. See that's why X Japan is such a great LEGENDARY band. because they respect other bands so much, unlike YOU.

[ace69er]

You idiot! I said NOTHING racist. How quick you lot jump on the racist bandwagon when some1 says soemthing u dont like.

I was NOT being racist! Saying some1 is gay is NOT racist. If some1 is gay, they are gay! End of!

What? You think there are NO gay Japanese??

You are delusional.

I happen to be part asian(Japanese to be preicse) my self, so calling ME racist is kinda like the pot calling the kettle black!

Get a clue, and learn some english!

[bohemianraphsody]

Ace69er country Austrailia, ye right japan

[ace69er]

Idiot! Thats right i AM Australian! IU have Japanese ancestry Russo-japanese. So stfu!

I am NOT gaijin!

[ephellCL]

i've seens yous posts manys manys comment someswhere else toos but ica't remembers wheres

pro'ly others X vids

[jaredthompson13]

i dont think respecting other bands make you legendary it will make you more likeable and maybe a better band, but not legendary

[chingvang559]

No they are legendary themselves. Not because they respect other bands...Look, they basically got all Japanese people to play guitar and piano. see all those jap piano players? They or their parents were inspired by Yoshiki..they just made music that met everyone's taste

[thenshekissedme]

@chingvang559 : you 100% right bro ! KISS Timeless !

[bohemianraphsody]

Tell me why do you think the singer is gay? i can say that atleast 2 in kiss is gay Ace frehley tex

[bohemianraphsody]

well the singer isent gay just bcouse u are. X japan are legendary in many countries

[FranzKlam]

I think they're saying Hard Wuck Woman

[werlkrulez]

the 'hard luck woman' part sounds like hard rock woman.

but i still love them. =D and KISS too.

[aquaYsnorkel]

is dat taiji playing the bass? they never show his face and it dosn't look like his hair

[hidepure]

it's not taiji and heath. but i'm not sure his name. he's from another bands in extasy

[aquaYsnorkel]

oooo ok thanks =)

[RomtiRainkid]

LOve LOve love

[Yazul]

Dude, I love BOTH Kiss and X VERY much... And Hard Luck Woman is one of my favorite from them...

Oh my god, Toshi's accent is lol, but great cover indeed...

hide must have enjoyed this song as much as I do...

[aquaYsnorkel]

awesome cover!

[iowastandup]

What's a hard Ruck Woman?

[ifeelallright]

dude grow up man, she's the sairors onry daughter, smart ass

[Yazul]

Yeah I know it's pretty funny but it's really hard to japanese people to speak english, especially to talk.

I must say their accent is not that bad there compared to others I've seen...

I really love this band as much as I love KISS (Although they're more like a tribute band nowdays with Singer and Thayer dressed as Peter and Ace), as my music taste says they're very good, despite the accent.

Check out a song from them called "Art of Life". It's simply fantastic.

[nubetostada]

And Toshi's accent is very good on that song. Same in Crucify My Love, or Drain (both completely in english, except for one miserable sentence on the latter)

I loved the cover :)

[jason005s]

i rearry ruv roo!!! hahaha i laughed for 20 minutes, hell of a nice cover though, nearly perfect

[jpkilldriver]

Ha ! I heard it too Hard Ruck Woman

[Astrovampsgirl]

they sing great i love you guys R.I.P. Hide sama I LOVE YOU X-JAPAN fuck of the haters

[l1m0]

Youtube se infecto de yankees pelotudos...

Que carajo tendra que ver que no pronuncien del todo bien el ingles? Aca lo unico que importa es la armonia musical, tanto de la voz como de los instrumentos.

Que se creen para querer dominar el idioma de cada pueblo, de cada cultura, con su malditas influencias?

Lo que hacen es violencia.

Americans live into a bubble

[Astrovampsgirl]

@l1m0 te entiendo para mi su ingles esta bien para ser nacidos en Japon es que los americanos creen que ellos son como ellos que pueden hablarlo bien por eso dije fuck the haters

[guy4rm36109]

raaa i reawy ruv ya i can fage abou ya LOL!!!

[cocheb]

Que temaso!!!

Muy buen cover exelente diria señor Burns...

bye..

[jorntkd]

Anyone thinks that they are no good,try watching their song name "Art of Life"and you'll see.This song is about 30 minutes long with extremely fast on the drum performed by Yoshiki.

[XxRustyNailxX]

that's not that what fascinated me....art of life had SUCH deep, fantastic lyrics...and this melody~~ it's just an unbeliefable master-piece *.*

so..and this cover is just..sweeet whaaa *.* i like it xD hideee~ wha xP~

[jorntkd]

They are X-Japan and of course they are Japanese.Kiss is their inspiration Rock Band.And best of all,about more than 10 years ago may be 20 years,there was an album tributed to Kiss.Yoshiki was invited to play piano for Kiss in the song name "Black Dimond".The name of the album is "Kiss my Ass(piration)".

[Lossacos]

''I reary rove you'' 1:11 lol

[hertz95]

lol @ toshi

[dressedtokiss]

i rrearry rove you hard ruck woman

i keep stare at you!!ha...ha...ha...

great effort guys keep up the great work i know it's not easy singin in another language cheers !!!

[hertz95]

Singing in another language isn't easy, singing in another language while playing guitar just makes it twice harder hehe

[redenajean]

I wish people would quit bitchin about the way they sound, if you do not like it then stop watching! I think they sound good, lets see all you who are complaining try and sing in their language!

[bdrich]

" You'll be a Hard Ruck Woman " stop trying to be American

[miqxlikesxpies]

geeez, they killed kiss' song

[HideSpookySama]

@miqxlikesxpies

Kiss deberia sentirse alagado , de que hide haya puesto sus ojos en ellos.

Hide es mucho mejor guitarrista que todos los guitarristas de kiss juntos.

Yoshiki le patea el trasero al baterista de kiss.

A si que mas respeto intento de rockerito.

[miqxlikesxpies]

sorry, i don't understand you

[Yuuko01010101]

@HideSpookySama

Respeto también con KISS,no sea ignorante señor.

me parece bien que tuvieran un cover a esta tremenda banda,

pero siempre todos preferimos las versiones originales.

Pero me parece simpático escucharlo de X japan.

[AlanQuaker]

@HideSpookySama hide mejor guitarrista que Bruce Kulick o Vinnie Vincent?? poor favor viejo; cualquier de ellos dos es mucho mejor tecnicamente que hide. Y yoshiki mejor que Eric Carr, Eric Singer o Peter Criss?? pff, ignorante nomas.

Mejor dale las gracias a Kiss, que sin ellos X no hubiera existido.

[repsycle]

@AlanQuaker You are crazy. Everyone in X are better players than Kiss members. I love Kiss, but That's pretty obvious.

[AlanQuaker]

@repsycle If you love Kiss, you have to know what i'm talking about.

[vanilla8216]

I like hide's voice!

[morrismountain]

lol i Rove you to.

1:33

boy-o forgot his line.

so ones more lol

[Andrehzito]

Oh my dog.

First of all - Their Speech sucks

"I really ROVE you"

"Hard RUCK woman"

Second of All - Where is the solo?

Third of All - They're a bunch of fags

Fourth of All - There is no forth of all

They really sucks

[hugomand]

HAHA "chuu be hard lark hrrooman!"

[Grzegrzolka]

IMO it should be 「KISS cover」 not 「X Japan cover」 because it might get confusing for some blockheads ;)

And isn't it from NYC voyage ? It was that one without Yo ? from late 80's ?

Btw. you know KISS is for Kids In Satanic Service right ? XD ha ha ha , those religouse fanatics are hilariouse, lmao.

[nightfallsgod]

sheesh ppl they did great! these guys dont even speak english! lets see you sing it in japanise besides yokoshi's version of black diamond rules!

[garnetd]

they speak english. hide lived in LA. and i like this cover too ^^

[xXPersephoneXx]

It's Yoshiki, actually.

[nightfallsgod]

yeah my bad. haha

[garnetd]

yeah i know. but i think hide lived in usa too.
