Muse - House of the rising sun

[NinetiesSteve]

that rocked.

[NinetiesSteve]

@NinetiesSteve though i can understand fans of the original not liking it tampered with so much... but to each their own.

[mysteryshrimp]

I was so prepared to hate this. How did they do this?

[NinetiesSteve]

@mysteryshrimp because they're muse

[SilverWolf09100]

in my opinion the best version of the song...

yeah i just said that

[EmBellamyHoward]

@SilverWolf09100 Agreed ;D

[bloopDS21]

Really, it's fxcking cool :P !

[evmuketa34521]

Jeez....This is the Cover of the Century!

[MassiveSuperiority]

One word, the intro, the FUCKING INTRO!

[BastardGamers]

this is a good cover the origional is awesome and i think muse did a pretty good job on this version

[Craftulicous]

Muse is amazing, but No. Just No.

[argyjr]

Muse is great, but leave this song alone. Not a fan of this cover at all.

[MechTechMaster15]

Seriously muse are so good it hurts!!!!!!!!

why is there a dislike button?... if you dont like something why the fuck do you watch it? I LOOOOOOOOOVE MUUUUUUUSE

[marintaylor1]

i don't think you understand how much i love matthew fucking bellamy

[UndisclosedFeelings]

Uhm,,, the version from the animals is good but not my style.

This version is my fave.

But the animals version 2 :D

[Markielover2]

Who can't love this?

[Banatterie]

Damn. The worst version I've ever heard. >.< I like Muse, but that's shit.

[ironmaidenfans99]

@Banatterie fuck you

[Aviendhaha]

wonderful. 8 people are intensely insane.

[atzenanu]

Bets cover is still by the animals

[purpleClarinet123]

I love how they played this at glastonbury :D

[HoodedSword]

Vocal harmonies near the end are awesome XD and the way it just goes into all those weird noises

[SophomoreSlump236]

This is what I call a 'cover'! They completely changed the whole thing and not just sing it the original way.

[paimaddz]

I absolutely love these guys they are Amazing!!! XD

[mzwahlen5]

Georgia Turner was not the first person to record the song. The earliest recorded version was by Clarence "Tom" Ashley in 1932, as "Rising Sun Blues" and in 1934, as "Rounder's Luck" by the Callahan Brothers. Roscoe Holcomb recorded it as "House in New Orleans" and Dillard Chandler as "Sport in New Orleans".

[DirtyMosha]

this has prolly got some of matts best vocals in imo

[gwhaberlein]

@DirtyMosha my friend says prolly all the time instead of probably

didn't know it was know too well

ah well...sorry I kinda wasted your time by reading this.

[DirtyMosha]

@gwhaberlein bahaha, it's a force of habit :) i can't even remember posting that ha

[queen10602]

Every single version I've heard of this cover is the same audio quality. I'm pretty sure that this is the quality of the track. It's supposed to be that way.

[zolium]

Nope. I have it in .FLAC, and it sounds far superior to any Youtube or low quality MP3's of this floating about.

Much much more powerful.

[pblasi4]

awful quality but great cover.

[choleexxx]

This version is shit!! !!

THE ANIMALS.. is better,,

puta version cagada!!! valen verga estos morritos fresas de mierda.. THE ANIMALS.. mil veces mejor.. un clasico hechado a la basura por estos putos

[allstrak]

get a life

[bobjimijanis]

Oh, and yeah: OliverAB and gloomyoutlook are extremely right. I couldn't say it any better

[bobjimijanis]

Oh my god. This is CRAP!

[Omgwhathappened]

i love this version =) his voice is so powerful

[queen10602]

I know! Kinda sounds like Bono doesn't it?

[mentalholocaust]

Hahahahaha, did they do this cover as a joke? Its really bad.

[DarkBlysse]

And now I love MUSE even more!  This is one of my favorite songs of all time, and they've covered it?!

Fuck, yeah!

[scatcat808]

genius

[IronOger]

The oldest known existing recording is by versatile Smoky Mountain artists Clarence "Tom" Ashley and Gwen Foster and was made in 1933. Ashley said he had learned it from his grandfather, Enoch Ashley. Alger "Texas" Alexander's The Risin' Sun, which was recorded in 1928, is sometimes mentioned as the first recording, but this is a completely different song.

Wiki'eded

[chrisharrahsvideos]

do you know where you can find that original 1928 version, i cant seem to find it

[DanielSanPC]

this song has not an original record. It's a tradicional US song.

[badbestfriend]

you know thats a different song yeah?

[mminc2112]

I think the version you are talking about is the Leadbelly version written around 1928,you can find it here on youtube if you search for it.However that is not the original version,no one is exactly sure when the song originated but it has versions going back as far as the Civil War.Just a little F.Y.I. for you in case you are interested.

[llamapro999]

Easily the best version of this song!!! how can anyone say otherwise?

[JoaoJMatias]

the most popular version was the one recorded by The Animals

[Chrales007]

Viel zu kratzig und überladen, ich finds unter aller sau. Das schöne Lied dermassen zu verunstalten.

[MICKYMILOR1992]

aha! tbh the original was a folk song :) earliest recording by Clarence Ashley and Gwen Foster

[zenz035]

what,muse wrote and proformed this

[popspie]

Sorry, but they didn't. original was anonymous but re-written by Animals and Bob Dylan... check it up

[zenz035]

[MICKYMILOR1992]

aha! tbh the original was a folk song :) earliest recording by Clarence Ashley and Gwen Foster
