Critics say Lady Gaga's Born This Way is quite similar in tone to Madonna's Express Yourself. Of course the critics are fans of Madonna. I wonder if Ol Drake can do a heavy metal version of Express Yourself despite it being two decades old (it being released in 1989 while Born This Way was released this year in 2011).
@Cheaterdragon Dude, can you actually imagine what that would do? I mean would you want a Heavy Metal version of Baby? HELL NO!!! But this is pretty good, but the guitar playing sounds more like Randy Rhoads's stuff.
@tuck234 dude there are surely many songs who can´t be metal and even more we just rly just don´t want to be metal (bieber stuff and stuff like that) but ya have to admit that there are a few like this where the kids would just try them out because it´s still a famous pop song just in a metal version it's like u wouldn´t listen to techno and just trying out a remix of a metal band and just getting the thinking: "hey techno isn´t that bad" for exempel the Cloud Connected CC remix from In Flames
it´s a originaly metal and thanks to the remix it´s techno but still sounds good i actually don´t like techno but i like this one and it opend my mind for other techno stuff
if music today had some metal stuff like this then maybe just maybe i mite listen to todays music other then that this is nothing compared to what i listen to daily but good cover though i just wish music waz like this at least
@MrCrazyTrain0 Surely this song is a remix or reinterference, or perhaps a cover/mashup. But as there is instrumental accompaniment it cannot be defined as acapella which is defined as singing without any instruments as musical accompaniment.
I think, and this is my opinion, that the song is still pop despite the 80's guitar.
@preachermuaddib it's a metal remix, meaning you take the original song and change the style of it to metal. For it to be a cover, lady gaga's vocals wouldn't be in this it would be someone singing the lyrics instead (Halestorms Bad Romance for instance), Mashup means more than one song was mixed together with this song; plenty of examples on here just look up one. The vocal track with nothing else is considered an acapella, as its vocals only lol. It can be one or many vox's
@MrCrazyTrain0 Many good points sir and not unwell made. While I would contend with some of them I fear we would lead ourselves to a bog of semantics of absolute definations. Though a vocal track with no instumental or otherwise artifical musical accompaniment is acapella thus the guitar renders this not. Also I would suggest the the timing of this song and the lyrics still classify the song in the pop territory despite the electric guitar accompaniment and it's stylings.
To the douchebag (used lowercase just for you) that complained about the mainstream crap and refers to the "true metal crowd", what the hell is that all about! This is music pal, not a social scene or country club. Since when does a person belong to a certain crowd in order to follow a given genre. You sound like a bitter 80s reject that still wears a mullet and Aquanet to hold the hair you think is this on the empty shell you call a head! Picking on Spanish people, your just sad. GO MONSTERS!!!
@MOZ1175 I actually mean quite the opposite. It was a response to someone who fits that description more.
By true metal crowd I mean those who listen to metal purely for the music and don't force themselves into things like not listening to anything but metal, dresses all black, long hair, and only having friends who listen to metal.
And no I'm not picking on Spanish people, I simply stated what I see a lot on the internet. I would advise you read the comments carefully before insulting me.
I wonder what style is next. He's done 2 NWOBHM bands so far. I predict it'll either be Motorhead, Metallica or maybe AC/DC. No, AC/DC isn't metal, but they have an extremely recognizable style, just like Iron Maiden, Judas Priest, Metallica and Motorhead.
...Actually, thinking about it, an AC/DC-esque cover would probably be the coolest one to do.
Uh yeah¡¡ the metal version i think that it's better for people like me for example who prefer metal music and no the style of gaga, i love those versions :))
