Anthrax - Cowboy Song

[casbah1982]

Dan Spitz does the solo, not Scott Ian.

[steverid]

This totally awesome...however...nobody can touch the original. Check out the Supersuckers version..it is pretty badass too! \m/ \m/ R.I.P Phil Lynott

[Jezter49]

@steverid yes, NO ONE can ever come close to the original. Supersuckers do an excellent cover as well, and amazingly enough, The Gin Blossoms do a great cover! haha go figure!

[jonaspenningdevries1]

Ray Mccall!

[specialedd64]

Excellent cover...never realized how many die-hard Thin Lizzy fans there are

[capnfucker]

Just seen Thin Lizzy Tuesday night with Judas Priest and Ricky Warwicks voice is similar to Jon's which personally I think is a better fit to their sound than Phils.

[cr00mz]

i was expecting a thrash metal cover, but this one is pretty damn all right

[freebird1974]

love it. they didn't try to do it in speed metal fashion they kept it orginal and that's what i love the most

[ShoeiBoy]

Sorry lads, nice try, but Gorham & Robertson would be fucking embarrassed by those piss poor solos.

[jonaspenningdevries1]

1:33= zoom at the contraband :)

[Danfrombackhome]

Can't believe I'm saying this but this is just a miniscule notch under the original. Phil would be proud!

[kvkop]

This is exactly like the original except for the voice...which is why the original is better!!!!!

[Keithisill]

Awesome song, awesome cover. :)

[redd5674]

Is Dan playing lead on this track. I've heard something to about Joey being back in Anthrax has there singer.

[fukinblowme]

@redd5674 Yeah it's Dan Spitz 1993.

[TheJohndoe63]

rockn roll me over

[TheJohndoe63]

fkin brill cover worth a listen over an over an over again..

[burntislandbassist88]

WHY HAVENT I HEARD THIS!!! ITS SOOOOO GOOD!!!!

[countrysamurai]

Great cover...this is one of Thin Lizzy's best songs. I liked your vid as well.

I will say...John Bush is the best thing that has ever happened to Anthrax.

I never liked them until he joined...I have been a fan every since.

I am also a huge Armored Saint fan. John's previous band...

[Jezter49]

@countrysamurai Jon is one of my all time fave singers... he still does Armored Saint and Anthrax has since gone back to their other singer Joey Belladonna... but that's just what I heard...

[743d]

@countrysamurai when i was a kid a bro of mine had an older brother with all the badness as far as metal was concerned. he hid it under his bed so his mom wouldn't know. any way i recorded march march of the saint on one side and spreading the desiese on the other {tape}. i would ride all over town on my crap bmx bike and a knockoff walkman. bush in anthrax? dream come and gone

[patb20civic]

@countrysamurai

John Bush was good with Anthrax, I won't deny that....but Anthrax with Joey is the Anthrax we all know

[Danfrombackhome]

@countrysamurai dude, Joey is only good for the nostalgia. Johnny Bush is fucking awesome and has a great pissed off east coast voice. Bush>>>>Belladonna.

[SPAREPARTSCENTRE]

@countrysamurai Ive gotta say I hate metal/ Loud rock etc ... it's not for me maybe I'm gettin' old but but 'm very proud that LIZ had such respect for other bands to pay homage and still do - They had so much influence but never got the respect that they deserve

[freebird1974]

@SPAREPARTSCENTRE where I'm from they DO and I'm from the St. Louis area and this is a K-She classic and that alone around here is of HIGH regards

[tericson100]

Well done.

[Blacksammath]

hahaahh, i thought the person was retarded and put cowboy instead of "Indians" hahaah

[Nightchefable]

Maybe FNM didn't cover this, but I bet they wish they did... what a rush!!

[santinodhillon85]

lol @ 0:30

[biffington]

Thin lizzy = awesome

Anthrax = Awesome

Combining the two to make weapons grade awesome.

[minhtran1114]

great cover, better than i expected !

[jackjarvisesquoir]

Phil Lynott...God Rest Him

[Grumberf]

a band i want to seen when i arrive to heaven is Phil, Moore, Scott, Downey!

yeah this is something good the vocals should be pround he didnt sing like a jakass he sang pretty well but i prefer Thin Lizzy phil Lynott.

[cheseeproductions]

of all the covers (faith no more, toadies, blur, ect.) this one's the best

[flatlandsparky]

This is great

[bullfidde]

great cover, not so far from the real deal!!!!!!!!

[1968baldguy]

excellent cover...a great tribute to Thin Lizzy

[cougarvt24]

1 of my favorites redone in classic fashion.  Your vid's pretty cool too.

[Jezter49]

@cougarvt24 I agree with you that this is the best cover to this song... comes pretty close but nothing compares to the original!

[RexApplegate]

Easily my favorite Cowboy Song Cover. I like it as much as the original. And it is bar none the best cowboy song vid out there. Very nice!

[briant420]

Good cover of possibly the coolest fucking song ever.

[filipzanden]

pass it on,,, feel the genius of lynott spread

[MOVIEMANFAN]

Im 15 right i love Anthrax but it's nothing compared to Thin Lizzy Version althought the guitar is rather badass here :)

[Jezter49]

oh yea.. NO ONE compares to Thin Lizzy original but this is a very decent cover...

[MetalxXxMan]

@MOVIEMANFAN i agree completely, but why did you need to mention your age?

[MOVIEMANFAN]

@MetalxXxMan Because most people my age don't listen to this esteemed kind of music

[MetalxXxMan]

@MOVIEMANFAN ROCK AND ROLL IS AGELESS!

and besides...im 16, alot of kids do. but not most.

[TheGIXXER1100]

@MOVIEMANFAN who cares if your 15....im 18 it doesnt matter how old you are as long as u like good music

[loafbo]

the guitar work is perfect

[snooloui04]

It's a good cover, but the original is great.

[bluesboy25000]

Good solid cover. Not as good as the Lizzy original but then again how can top Phil?

[texasglide1]

Anthrax is good but Thin Lizzy is better and I'm 52. Type Thin Lizzy Cowboy Song

in your you tube search and one of the best ones is on the first page. Live at Sidney Opera House!

[peterleethree]

This is the first time i've ever listened to Anthrax (i am 41!)

It is a good cover,but the irony is,that a song about Texas cowboys has too be sung with an Irish lilt!

Go figure??

[EnragedBannana]

dude you've been missing out (im 14)

let me suggest

i'm the man

indians

got the time

bring the noise

and caught in a mosh

[PaulRattlehead]

Eh Irish lilt??? Dublin lilt man....

God rest Phill

[jackjarvisesquoir]

Phil Lynott...GOD REST HIM!

[JosephKuby]

Or Jump in the Fire with Cliff Burton since this bass reflects Anthrax's advanced metal sound. :D

[cookie5455]

fuckin hell mr bello,your gonna kill my laptop speakers!lol

[flyinelvis69]

One of the best covers of all time...and one of the few that's as good as the original!

[Jezter49]

yupyupyup... itz an awesome cover and Jon Bush vocalz makes it so..

[sasgay]

much better than the original imo

[SaraxMiley]

It's a joke ? it's just a cover! Lynott sing much better.And i like anthrax.!

[busstopratbag]

yeah. the guitar is the only good thing about this track. the bass sounds is awful, and the vocals are just not up for discussion

[VH12th]

you must be fucking retarded -.-

[sasgay]

ALERT THE POLICE

SOMEONE HAS A DIFFERING OPINION ON THE INTERNET

OH CRY HAVOC AND LET SLIP THE DOGS OF WAR, WHAT WILL BECOME OF SOCIETY NOW!?

/cruise control

[robertgoul]

a fine 1st choice

[jcane28eatsfatpuss]

Agreed...This song NEEDS to be on youtube....Thin Lizzy are classic.
