Skillet - Hero (The Legion of Doom Remix) Awake and Remixed EP 2011

[Tenuto07]

I need a HERO.

[Brea2luv]

We're in the fight of our lives and we are ready to die! "like" YES.

[bsuorangecrush]

wow, i love skillet but they ruined a great song with this mix. same can be said with the remix of don't wake me. i guess its good the other version exists so i dont have to listen to this mix ever again

[ScenetheUndead]

@bsuorangecrush Why would you search for a remix if you dont like remixes? GTFO if you dont like it and stop bashing on something alot of people actually like :l people like you are trash and need to get a life.

[bsuorangecrush]

I didn't search for remixes, I just searched for Skillet and this came up. I like the song so I gave this a try and its terrible! I don't know how anything I said makes me trash but but the fact that go straight to belittling me shows how little respect you have for anyone or anything. Get a life? Maybe take your own advice.

[ScenetheUndead]

@bsuorangecrush Why do i need a life when your the one complaining about how they ruined a song? And no i dont respect many people, why would i respect anyone over the internet?

[ArcaneArts]

@ScenetheUndead Without knowing the whole context of this conversation, have you ever considered the general lack of respect of people is a problem? People respond when you treat their opinions fairly and deal with them politely?

I'm not sure how much of an a-hole the other guy is, but maybe the conversation would go better if you started giving people a little respect. Just my two bits.

[ScenetheUndead]

@ArcaneArts Why respect someone i dont know? It doesnt matter what he searched, the title itself should have been clear yet he still clicked on it and complained about it.

[ArcaneArts]

@ScenetheUndead Well...

1)How should he know he wasn't going to like a remix just by the title? For him to assume it IS bad is being close minded, and that's pretty damn bad.

2)Counter question: Why the hell should I respect you? I sorta get what you're saying, but I like to think you like me talking to you better than some asshole, and it comes down to the fact that I respect your frustration and you in general. My experience has been such that I've never regretted respecting someone else.

[ArcaneArts]

@bsuorangecrush Considering I actually dislike normal Skillet and like the remixes, I get where you're coming from. That said, I do find myself wondering if the last line from your original post was needed-it seemed a bit like a slap in the face to anyone who does like it. Still, as a side note, I think you've by and large been respectful.

Out of curiosity, what exactly about this song don't you like? Just curious.

[bsuorangecrush]

Comparing it to the original it's not a very good song. I love the original, probably one of their top 5 songs. This version is a downgrade from how good the original is. Its not terrible, but since the original exists I won't have to ever listen to this one again. Thats all. Still love Skillet, this is just a 6 when the original is a 9.

[ArcaneArts]

@bsuorangecrush I got that from the first time, I'm just curious about what EXACTLY makes it not a very good song. What elements are at play that turn you off? I'm not asking from a music major position, so you don't need to get fancy, just some details would be interesting to hear.

[molamolaman11]

the pony video that has this song in it and ty fwge37

[molamolaman11]

the ponies brought me here bro hoof anyone

[FWGE37]

@molamolaman11 *Bro-Hoof*

[SoxxOnTroxx]

@molamolaman11 Bro-Hooves all around! :D

[DidYourMomOSaurus]

[theoriginalcmpunkfan]

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaawwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww­weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssss­sssssssssssssssssssssssssooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ommmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmeeee­eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

[HabboMuffinz]

It's good, but it sounds like they're holding their breath and singing. :/

[AndreySekret]

Full shit, original is cool

[DSRockstar1]

i just jizzed in my pants after hearing this....

[marguello1220]

​Parkinson's is a terrible disease.. with all that hand-shaking 15 people accidentally clicked dislike, donate today to find a cure!​

[Jesusavesalone1010]

I was just a step away. I needed a hero. I was falling off the edge. I needed somebody to save me from the Hate I caused. My Hero is Jesus Christ. And through him, I have become a hero to others by sharing him with them. That's how I see this song. Thumbs up if you agree.

[Hobolauncher]

@Jesusavesalone1010 couldn't have put it better myself

[mpw19962001]

Korey Cooper and Ben Kasica are far more than geniouses.

[FallingUpstairsInc]

Ahhaha. My heart didn't work, so just ignore that XDD

[FallingUpstairsInc]

I. LOOOVVVEEEEEEE. Skillet x3

It's one of the few Christian bands with a real unique sound and style, and I absolutely love that. ♥

[ddude123able]

i sounds like it has some dubstep in it'

[StellarKart21]

AHHHHH LOVE the remixes!!!!

[TheJedigir]

is there a cd or an album u can buy this off of?

[SylvurZero]

@TheJedigir You can buy the Awake and Remixed album on iTunes :D

[TheJedigir]

@SylvurZero cool, i will

[Sertitude123]

Im lovin it

[T0pcatFilms]

this version should be used in the game Mass Effect 3

[TheJedigir]

this is great.

[TheThirdlayer]

0:06 was my favorite part of the original Hero and they changed it :(



[zlatex97]

13 ppl thaught that the dislike button meant "download" in german. : /



[whatdouthink96]

@zlatex97 lol original nice

[heiveldboy]

@zlatex97 and 1 million people thought that they could gain their 5 pathetic minutes of fame by saying something about the dislike bar while it's oooh so very old and annoying

[Kurianichi]

@zlatex97 download is english too ... ;P

[cr7933]

cool



[DJyogyy]

12 need a hero to save em..

[Strings4TheSavior]

just a little more editing and this coulda made a sickkkkk Dubstep beat.

[AlbertWhiskers101]

eh, its a little slower than the original.

but i still bought all 4 songs so obviousily its not that bad

[cjwskater9]

I'm pissed because I can't hit "next track."....Dang it.

[Trace3690]

@cjwskater9 can't press it unless you full screen it....worth it to listen to Skillet anyday! ^_^

[FatalPunch98]

@Trace3690 i dont need to put it on full screen

[Trace3690]

@FatalPunch98 i listened to this on here when it was the older version on youtube. i don't have to now

[1808ian]

@cjwskater9 full screen

[alisson5ful]

estragaram a musicaa q merdaaa a versão original é melhor não tem nem como comparaa afff esse loko fudeu com a musica, desgramaaa.....

[tatertots3231]

11 people are potheads instead of panheads.

[sarah5allsports]

@tatertots3231 12 now lol



[PILRofFIRE]

@sarah5allsports I think you mean 13

[OMGHeadoff]

SO! MUCH! BETTER! THAN! THE! ORIGINAL!!!

[sabjoe1982]

is there a way to get a mp3 of this and the awake and alive remix?

[Patriots09ist]

@sabjoe1982 Should be on Itunes I would think.

[panheadsk8er]

@sabjoe1982 hey google youtube 2 mp3 u can do it that way

[crlastwishsubmissive]

@sabjoe1982 you can get it off of amazon mp3 too

[doplys]

did someone remixed this or did Skillet remixed?

[jay021ftw]

skillet has the only remixes i like enough to listen to them again.

[Starwars122football2]

the "Just a Man" means Jesus Christ....skillet is a christan band

[xXx26scorpion26xXx]

nice remix

[Invisodude]

best song, just got better

[TheSlipknotist]

Skillet has my respect back

[SuperKiko32]

ta fixe



[xBLAZINGxNUKESx]

i think this shoulda been on the next transformers instead of awake and alive

[zanzir07]

Stop please just stop....your last great album was Collide, Comatose was alright. I will hate because I know they can do better than what they put out. With lyrics like should of when you could've I mean really?

[gmastercasper805]

@zanzir07 i agree. Im not hating on skillet. i like alot of there old school stuff and i thought that Comatose and Collide were amazing cuz of the classical and rock mix up, but when i got awake i wasnt too impressed. I agree 100% with u that they can do much much better. Awake sounded mainstream and felt like a step down from what they can pull off.

[musicplayer21565]

i like the original a bit more but this is still a sweet remix

[lopezwhat36]

originals are better, i like the remix but not as good as the originals

[xxtheTrufflerxx]

cool... :)

[TheDdevlin]

pls pls pls don´t do it again no remix pls don´t end like Linkin Park that´s crap really sry that´s my opinion but Linkin Park follow the mainstream , don´t do it like them

[crossbowpanhead]

from my point of view, I think that they should of kept the same sound track and made it sound far away, add wind noises, and some far off thunder were there aren't any volcas

[bluefieldchecker]

wow cool

[joshboy12345678910]

out of all the remixes this is the best one.

[BoneDaddy216]

they should've threw in some dubstep. it would've been epic. like Get Up by KoRn. sick ass dubstep/metal song x)

[bhcalhoun1]

BEAST!

[rockhardpoof]

epic fight song

[misho636]

I LOVE SKILLET 

[whatdouthink96]

I just listened to a song from skillet back in 1996, and then I went to this...there isn't the slightest resemblance. This goes to show that skillet doesn't care about stepping out of their comfort zone....and doing one heck of a job of it.

[BlueHawaiian93]

This is good for my snowboarding music......more mixed!!!!!! KEEPS ME ON THE SLOPES LONGER!! I like the original too, but skillet can try anything they want, its their music

[TheSwitchfoot121]

heh heh....i <3 this song SOOOOOO much!Bravo Skillet, another great song!

[TheIrishGamerDude]

I love it, I prefer the original, but I love it.

[15cornboy]

this is awesome!!

[MonsterRocker101]

Finally! a christian rock song that can be played at a dance club!!

[ArcaneArts]

@MonsterRocker101 Except it won't. Or probably won't. Dance Clubs would probably find this too out of place most of the time. If I'm wrong, let me know.

Still, this actually sells me on Skillet-I finally have something of theirs I solidly like.

[Michelleiscul]

@MonsterRocker101 :O!!!

[chambreair]

le remix est nul de chez nul

[TheTyler600]

0:45, sounds heroic.

[IwillnotsayIquit]

I like it.

[EditorKMP]

I think this is kinda amazing.

[littleboyred1]

I'm not sure if i love or hate this...

I'll just not vote.

[Readerboy777]

0:16 False hope for awesomeness.

0:44 False hope is blasted into a million pieces and is replaced by a very, very wide grin.

[TorsonEntertainment]

It is very hard to remix perfect music. Skillet did the best job of perfecting the perfect.

[gerbils4]

Definatly one of those albums made just for the fans! I love a band who cares about their family :)

[mcbobery1234]

anybody wanna mix Skillet, The Devil Wears Prada and Dubstep?

[Scoff94]

@mcbobery1234 nobody should mix those together.

[NighTmareRebornX]

@mcbobery1234 let's uhhhh not but say we did; being they're two completely diff genres

[mcbobery1234]

@NighTmareRebornX let's DO and say we didnt... being this is already half way to dubstep... and The Devil Wears Prada is actually a lot like Skillet in terms of style. Just a thought :)

[NighTmareRebornX]

@mcbobery1234 ..............ehh w.e makes ya happy; but what song would you possibly ever have in mind to even mix from DWP?

[mcbobery1234]

@NighTmareRebornX who knows? Louder than Thunder? Sassafras???

[NighTmareRebornX]

@mcbobery1234 ehhhh you kinda have a point...lets see if that would be good

[mrSPUDn1ck]

This is just like when linkin park made the reanimation album, they didnt change genre, they just remixed their stuff to reach more people, who dont necessarily like hard rock =D rock on Skillet!!

[dragonforcecanada]

4 people dont like this song

[mrSPUDn1ck]

@dragonforcecanada WOAH!! no way dude!! :O nice observation....

[fugdkn]

@mrSPUDn1ck lol

[mychemxhelena]

Oh my god people they didn't make a whole album like this. It's a remix EP with 4 songs. That's it.

[cwarner312]

korey should try dubstep style

[mcbobery1234]

@cwarner312 YES.....EPIC! :DDDD

[cwarner312]

korey should do dubstep style

[TheIronman4351]

ǝɯosǝʍɐ sı sıɥʇ

[sockostealshearts]

this is so freaking epic, glad theyre trying different things again.

[kellywells11]

I think out of all of the remixes, Hero is the best. But I do love the whole EP, I'm going to have to buy it sometime soon. :)

[Guitarfreak365]

Was not sure about it at first. But after listening to it with an open mind im kinda liking it.

[TwyRyse]

ok so this one is awesome,the Monster remix was epic, they could have done better with Awake and Alive, but Dont Wake Me blew everything away, and this is coming from someone who couldnt stand the original

[LukeJ60]

Glad to see Skillet going back to the invincible sound (:

[da9176250]

2 people are bieber fans.



[TheJjamd]

@da9176250 one person is some retard begging for attention

[da9176250]

@TheJjamd Ya you trying to defend Bieber

[TheJjamd]

@da9176250 if i was why the heck would i be listening to this video? He doesn't make music. Skillet makes music. Justin Bieber is just some kid who has become a fad. Writing comments about the number of dislikes. Just some fad people use to bring attention to themselves.

[jocking0]

0 to about :45 should be the intro to skillets concerts its so rad

[chilzification]

the whole intro should be used before they come on stage. like from the beginning to 0:45. that would be epic.

[woottome]

I got chills at 0:45 <3 I LOVE SKILLET

Panhead for life!!!

[flashbash2]

Panheads unite!!!

[iEnigmaAG]

Some one person needs to be saved by a Hero!

[dramatime23]

u actually hate remixes for songs i love, but i gotta admit Skillet excellent! I LOVE IT!

[pariah582]

there will be a day where everyone will know skillet

[MADxGENIUS]

ive been a fan of skillet for a long time and most of the time i try to stay away from stuff that sounds like this, but this is actually really cool

[makeadifference26]

i think that the haters need to stop hating. Anyone who has been a panhead for a long time like myself can understand that Skillet is not only so talented and gifted, but also secure enough in themselves and their music to try something new. More bands need to be like them and break free from the mold of their typical "genre" and expand. Bravo to Skillet.

[mhasemey]

@makeadifference26 bravo. panheads forever

[LordMordred100]

@makeadifference26 Is panhead the name for a skillet fan?

[arizonatealover55]

@LordMordred100 yes siiirrrrr lol ive been a pan head for like six years :D i love them!!!!!

[arizonatealover55]

@LordMordred100 YES SIRRRR!! lol ive been a panhead for like..... six?? years i thinks....... time flies when your listening to amazing music :D

[Snowflake99C]

@arizonatealover55 6 years for me too!

[LittlePhoenix100]

@makeadifference26 if you think about it this isn't really new to them, their old songs used to have a feel similar to their remixes

[Michelle062970]

@makeadifference26 I agree. Newsboys did, not only one, but 2 remix CDS. I think it's pretty cool when bands do this type of experimenting. I haven't bought the Skillet one yet, but that is what brought me here to see if it's worth getting and pretty much so far, I like it!

[livelifefree666]

@makeadifference26 This isn't really new. Their first couple of albums were more like this. Personally I didn't like their old music, but this is good.

[makeadifference26]

@livelifefree666 i completely agree with you on that. personally i like where they have gone since collide, but hey, everyone has their tastes, not everyone is going to like this stuff, but the least someone could do is show some respect for the work that they put into creating all of their music. in all honesty it is refreshing to see them touch back at their industrial roots.

[IronJerichoY2J]

@makeadifference26 Well Said I Couldn't Of Put It Better Myself

[makeadifference26]

@IronJerichoY2J why thank you :)

[littledrummerdude27]

@makeadifference26 i agree 100%!!!!! They are amazing at everything they do! from their hard hitting rock numbers (monster, savior...), powerful ballads (lucy, yours to hold, angels fall down...), and now remixes!!!! they are awesome in everything they do!!

btw.....i never "thumbs up" comments, cuz i think its lame,, but i did yours!! lol

[GTRAT09]

@makeadifference26

Im going to be honest right now. I love skillet. Best band ever, but this is not at all my favorite album. This song is the only one I like. I have no negative feelings against them for trying. They are trying to get their music out to as many people as possible and I applaud that. Just because I dont like some of their songs doesnt mean im a hater

[lajorn]

this sounds like something that would be in assassins creed!

[threedaysgraceman1]

@lajorn assassins creed and skillet together would be AAAAWWWEEEESOOOOMMMEEE!!!!!!

[Brea2luv]

finally one of there remixes that actually has guitar in it :)

[DBPUT]

@Brea2luv Awake and Alive is another one but the guitar doesn't come in until somewhere near the end.

[21Skillet21]

@DBPUT I'd say I like Awake and Alive without the heavy stuff, the vocals sound amazing!

[DBPUT]

@21Skillet21 I couldn't agree more. My favorite part is 1:03 when it plays that heavenly music

[Brad3Frantz]

These were just uploaded yesterday? I think they're going to become very popular very quickly. Honestly, the best remixes I've ever heard for Skillet.

[jedivid]

EXCELLENT!!!!!!!



[knightchick0883]

Skillet is AMAZING original or remixed!

[PaoKastellanos]

I loveeeee It

I Want it.. 

[SillumKcaj]

How pro? Too pro.

[2112duke]

awesome remix :)

[non452]

These are definitely way better than most remixes. They have a different style to them although the original songs are still better.

[sharellg]

these remixes are cool just so diffrent from wht im used to lol

[LovelyThought123]

wow.... I'm impressed i've heard some of these and this is a kool remix.

[JesusMusicHead]

i hope they r doing this live on the avalanche tour!

[xBattleZonexDefender]

Engineering masterpieces

[dshoaff]

these remix songs would make good intro tracks to the real performances.

[BlueHawaiian93]

This is really cool!!!!!!! Good snowboarding music!!
