High Hopes By: NightWish

[moemmoe88]

I just wonder how long does it take for people to realize the reason why bands play covers is that they respect the ones that made the originals... So there really is no need to argue over which is better: the original or the cover....

[bacalhovisk]

I see this song as a tribute,not as a something to be comparated to the original but unfortunately people here have this "need" to compare stuf,just another depressive human comportment this is one of the reason our world is colapsing.

[labub]

the whole song is fuked by these nutjobs!!!!!

[PLIronMaiden]

Aght..... What is that shit? Cheap fake of real (crazy :)) diamond. It.... SUCKS.

[BloodEviscerator]

I like this version more to be honest, actually I like this version allot more! No disrespect to Pink Floyd.

[ekeltion]

i really like it i dont compare it but i really like more than some nightwish's songs...

[celerystalker19]

@uns33ntr4th Nope.

[BDFWesker]

This version is missing something...

Oh, that badass slide guitar solo.

[eloonah]

It's awful... where is the first message of the song ? This version is empty of sense...

(i'm sorry for my english, i'm learning it :/ )

[evilass334]

i dont mean to bash pink floyd, but when i heard the original (heard it before this), it sounded almost emotionless, here i can hear some emotion in marcos voice. im not saying pink floyd is bad, but for my tastes i like this version alot more.

[alexRawrx]

The original of this is one of my all time favourite songs, but this cover works so well.

[slappingoat]

che ignoranza....

[BeastPWNedGaston]

I just listened to the original, and I was like; "Something is missing.... Marko."

[meghma1000]

Nightwish maybe amazing but this comes nowhere near the original. just a tribute by a lesser band.



[h4unter]

This is NOT better than the original.....

[MrMiner99]

6:47 giggles :P

[MrMiner99]

the lyrics of this son are EPIC

[ische963]

sehr edel !! *-*

[dige86]

Pink Floyd are Pink Floyd... Nightwish are Nightwish.

[sorgification]

I've heard a lot of covers, but this is one of the worst covers ever made. that fucking voice is terrible. there is no feeling from original song, this has bo soul, this is just played score, nothing more. POOR!!!

[SipOrSap]

im fuckin inlove with this song :D! FUCK the voice GET THIS ONE BACK :D!

[AquaRiderPl]

For fuck sake.... Marko's voice is just EPIC. When he for example enters in "Northern Kings - We don't need another hero" I usually get boner xD

[Nolofinwe13]

stop dislike it cause it's original form is better... this is music! and this is a very good cover

[momencar]

@uns33ntr4th lol they made once in end of an era i dnt think so

[fedexv88]

the solo sucks

[MisteriosaVampiria]

@fedexv88 everything sucks...this is blasphemy...

[Laxori666]

i like the instrumental parts cause of the variety (from hearing th studio pink floyd version all the time) but i prefer the original vocals for sure

[CelticGarou]

I don't like it, there's no real change in emotion to his voice for the different parts of the song. And that echo you guys seem to like is just what his mic is set to, anyone can do it.

[Dagiszcz]

chu jo we

[TheBurkshire]

Cool!! A half good cover.. But it's Floyds song, and Nightwish don't do anything other than try to make it sound contemperarry, ie like every other fucker out there.

Gilmore smirks at your music. But it is better than most I hear these days.

[grievous56]

Another video full of people arguing over which version is better.

Can't we all just get along and respect other peoples opinions?

I, for example, do prefer Nightwish but I don't hate Pink Floyd fans.

[XOXOkatydid]

@grievous56 exactly. like i prefer pink floyd, but im not gonna pick fights with other people, because this version is amazing too.

[fghhrtthr]

Nigthwish is a power metal band plays Pink Floyd and progressive rock, and not because pinkfloid exist, they came heavymetal group, but the two DepNet.com for good.

[dirtym5driverm]

amazing song.....good job ;)

[AwakeningExiled]

I think Pink Floyds is better, but this one isn't bad.

[deviousbat93]

As a fan of both Pink Floyd and NIghtwish, I like this one but lean slightly towards Pink Floyd's version better

[ThisMortalCoil64]

Ehh, I love Nightwish but I have to say I prefer Floyd's original version. Although I prefer Marco's voice to Gilmour's- and that's often the reason why I love Nightwish's covers, seeing as they used to sport two of my favourite vocalists of all time- High Hopes's real strength how emotional everything sounded, and so much of that came from the fact that Gilmour wrote the song about himself. Kudos to Nightwish for trying, and kudos to a great cover... but my vote goes to the original.

[pablolasase]

all the emotion in this song was lost

what happened to the wonder acoustic guitar by gilmour

what happened to the keyboards of wright

this version is shit!

[hkhatch91]

@pablolasase i completely agree gilmour's version is overwhelming ... this is just a regular song now the emotion is gone... dnt get me wrong nightwish is gr8 bt they shouldnt have changed the original version they should've left it as it is ... legendary and immortal!

[pablolasase]

what the fuck they did to this song!!

[ShadowOfChaoS666]

@pablolasase well everyone is entitled to they're own opinion , what i dont understand is why dont u accept that others appreciate the cover...dont swear dude, it makes u look like a moron ^^

[feverwolf95]

good! but the original is better!

[captainkpeanuts]

i'm not gonna get dragged into the obligitory arguments about which version is better, i think both versions a amazing and both in deifferent ways, this song is so good that it would be hard to ruin (but not impossible)

[PokerKid2008]

this version of high hopes is not better than the original!!! nighwish are a OK band, nothing more. Pink Floyd are the goods of rock and lyrics!!!

[kofiringo]

he sings like shit comparing to gilmur

[kongkabel]

marco has a great voice!

[PezunaProducciones]

Nightgay

[weegrant007]

its good, but this shows how great Floyd were. They had something unique, and something no other band has ever possessed.

[FalconFBDT64]

Terrible, an embarassment to Pink Floyd

[IICEWOLF]

@FalconFBDT64

agreed =L

[AriochStarr]

I do enjoy listening to Nightwish, especially this song

I got Nightwish's Collection album with this song on it, and I can't stop listening to it

[rallasclandestinas]

@tallicAddicted absolutely no D:

you are wrong man U__U

[elnoele]

I don't like this version :( in my opinion he sings withouth any emotions

[MrOLMOBE]

Pink Floyd's original is much better!

[tomrn36]

@MrOLMOBE you CRAZY? no harm but night wish is much better =)

[madoerin]

@tomrn36 hahahaha lol you have to be kidding me kkkkkkkkkkkk

[MejorQueNada]

Pink Floyd is my favorite band, has been almost my entire life. I will say that Marco's voice will bring tears to me. He sings it with heart gripping emotion. If anyone doesn't like well i could care less. To me, only Marco can sing this song the way it was meant to be sang.

[Harpyoh]

i like nightwish but c'mon?? the song is ruined

[BloooodScare]

His voice sucks...

That's an insult for the Floyd's

[dorinpe]

FUCK U ALL WICH DON'T LIKE NIGHTWISH

[4n60]

wtf, i miss gilmour's voice and i hate that fuckin' distortion. Well, this is just stupid cover, it's elsewhere than PF. I can't feel breezin' while listenin to this instead of pfloyd's version.

[guiwie]

just a matter of taste. I like the original, but this version, to me, is just more impressive.

[drfaustus89]

Totally agreed, Pink Floyd's High Hopes is much more better than this cover...

[LIBERTINEPARANOIC]

this version is pretty good...but say that this version is better than pink floyd version its fuckin rubish

pink floyd is so much better than nightwish

and pink floyd..its pink floyd

who the fuck is nightwish?

[gnjojn]

this is rubbish compared with the original!!!

[bAll3r9StYl3]

you guys can like it more than the original keeping in mind that if Floyd didn't make the song in the first place this one wouldn't exist. Nightwish might be amazing but Pink Floyd is legendary.

[kagomemiko39]

really i prefer this version than the pink floyd version

Nightwish is amazing

[ulverup]

shut up just shut up

[Hepzn]

I was expecting this to be ordinary, but it's actually quite good! People need to take it for what it is..... just another band's interpretation of a legendary song. Nothing will ever match the original.

[drsalvation]

hm...in my opinion, Floyd's version was better, this one's good, but I guess if a band's going to cover floyd, dream theater is the best! I mean, this one has it's good side (it's like comparing Seger's Turn the page with metallica's) can't think of anything else to say hoho

[magugreech]

I love this cover is so powerfull. oh please can you send me the mp3 of this song i dont find it

[rainboworanges]

I love Marko's voice. Beautiful. Nightwish is an amazing band. I like this better than the original.

[Oblivinit3]

i agree with you his voice just echoes its amazing!

[Harpyoh]

@Oblivinit3 are you tone deaf?

[Farinelli992]

@rainboworanges pink floyd version is much better.

[Vaffanciullo]

@rainboworanges Please don't swear! Dont' forget how it's simplier to make a cover of a song than to invent it ;)

[ivzax]

@rainboworanges it's a good cover but nothing like the original men :/

[frohman8]

@rainboworanges couldnt agree more 

[naruto1188]

@rainboworanges oh please you can't even compare this shit with pink floyd

he can't even spell english correctly
