  • I love this song so glad I got to see them on the 2010 Gothic Cruise and masquerade ball. So Epic!

  • @animegirlkitten

    where was a gothic cruise? that sounds fantastic.

  • *LYCKA*

  • Ich LIEBE COVENANT !

  • funker vogt

    

  • sexy

    

  • Covenant es una banda que tiene la capacidad de plasmar ese sentimiento de frialdad y seriedad en su musica de forma magistral!!!! Solo para almas elevadas, Señores de la electronica! Maestro de maestros! united states of mind!

  • I love Covenant so much and I'm a huge fan of Blade runner so this song is just "epic"

  • @cryonicblue

    But of course this was bound to be epic by default. You just can't fuck with Balderunner & Covenant! But they might fuck up the Bladerunner sequel if that ever gets into production, let's see. - Black eyes full of stars, wide with memories!!!

  • MR ANDERSON?

  • great , buena rola

  • IN_CRE_I_BLE!!!!!!

  • Great song! I love this band so much!

  • I love what Covenant gets right. Unfortunately, they're very hit/miss with me. This song is certainly one of the hits, though.

  • super!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!! 

  • What album is this from?

  • @AngelicaChurch

    United States Of Mind :)

  • i´ love you covernant :-D

  • These guys got played constantly at the club I used to go to. I always thought they were like some kind of Depeche Mode cover band. I just happened to run across this video - had no idea who they were until today.

  • I seen this band twice, if you ever get a chance to see them, you will not be disappointed ffs

  • Wunderlicher alter, soll ich mit dir gehn??...:D "Der Leiermann" müsst ihr mal gleichzeitig singen^^ Ich bin mir nicht sicher ob ich es gut finde, dass die Musik gleich (?)/ ähnlich ist^^ Ansonsten: Geiler Song^^

  • Clas I miss you!

  • The first time i heard this it resonated with my soul and turned me on to a whole new genre of music. More people should listen.

  • It sounds great, what else do you need! it's MUSIC! Close your eyes and enjoy.

  • This will always take me back to 2000 and the best days of my life stomping at the club.

  • @toodarkmark

    Me too ;) Been years though since I've seen em play. Last time I saw them was probably around 10 years ago at Limelight in NYC.. It was them and And One. Great Show!

  • @toodarkmark

    Why stop?

  • Love to hear a mix with this song and Personal Jesus by Depeche Mode....

  • first time i heard of them was playing project gotham racing 3 and was the song 20Hz i had to pause the game and listen waiting for modern ruin to hit my postbox now !

  • How can anyone dislike this? idiots. This song is AMAZING!!

  • Nosotros también estuvimos en sala bikini ayer. SONARON INCREIBLES!!!!!

  • my fav covenant by far but the intro beat sounds like a children's 4 beat toy...

  • I don't know any electronic music enthusiasts who would say Covenant is a bad band.

  • esta mejor en aleman,

  • just in case you didn't know - this is acutally a cover version of a 180 years old piece called "der leiermann" by franz schubert

  • @petapaipa

    The lyrics are completely different.

    It's not a cover.

  • uwielbiam ta piosenkę...

  • "I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I've watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tannhäuser Gate. All those ... moments will be lost in time, like tears...in rain." - Blade Runner

  • @yukifujita -Roy Batty (Rutger Hauer)

  • @yukifujita That's one of the most profound and beautiful quotes I'd ever heard... Blade Runner was a great movie, greater than the recent movies I've seen.

  • @yukifujita that movie was a thousand times more complex than I thought it was going to be... a a million times better.

  • @yukifujita Yes =), many covenant songs are inspired by movies!

  • @yukifujita "Time to die..."

  • @yukifujita LIKE AIR RIVALS!!!!!!!!

  • my first sound in the industrial world !

  • nice song. so sad but... true

  • Beautiful sad song...

  • nice song

  • Sublime!

  • amazing pictures and such a majestic song , thanks for putting it up , lost track of the band a bit :)

  • Such an amazing song.

  • this sure is a sad song

  • Υμνος!

  • This is good... thanks for posting :-)

  • Υπεροχο.....

  • one of my favorite songs by them.. and amazing live :)

  • Like it a lot.

  • Ich Liebe das Lied!!!!Und den jenigen der es mir zeigte noch mehr!!!

  • sOUND LIKE A GOATY!

  • Takes me back to the early 2000 years going to Industrial-gothic nightclubs here in southern Ca/LA-Hollywood area(not really played anymore during last 5 years,but it'll get people on the dancefloor).

  • man the hard times that this song has helped me power thru. thanx to the fans out there of great emotional driven music ;-)

  • This is awesome...Swedish electrokings:)))

  • Es gefaellt mir besser auf deutsch... but kicks ass either way!

  • 1:16 the middle one looks like Hitler o_O

  • love it!!

  • Eskil's voice is like cold ice melting over my burning mind.

  • there like an 80s band that have stepped out of a time machine and brought there sound to 2010

  • @thecritic2007 wow thats the best description of Covenant i´ve seen/herd Í´ll probably use it many times ;)

  • @thecritic2007 I first started listening to them in 2003, Northern Light is still my favorite album by them.

  • @thecritic2007 I know right? It's almost like they've been playing the same good music for 25 years.

  • eu amo essa musica !!!

  • the lead singer sounds like david bowie to me

  • covenant <3 cant wait to see them @ kinetik festival

  • wtf this is exactly the same thing as Der Leiermann.

  • Well, no..

    Der Leiermann is a german poem that Covenant sang to the tune of Like tears in rain ergo the music to Der Leiermann is exactly the same as the music in Like tears in rain

  • It's too similar to "Front Line Assembly" or "Front 242" and for this reason i like it. "And for many other reasons"

  • Awesome, best New Beat, Futurepop, Darksynth, Darkwave, ever!

  • MIstrzostwo świata !!!!

    Fantastyczny numer !!!!

  • i prefer "call the ships to port" or "bullet". but ok, jest fantastucyny numer ;)

  • sehr geil!

  • This is awesome!!XD

  • I have met Covenant in personal... Thumbs up!

  • Great song and great band! Thanks for putting this together. I would love to see them in Costa Rica

  • what are you talking about ? are being sarcasticor are you like serious? whats so wrong about them??

  • Great! Haven't listened to this song for many years. It is even better now

  • this song is terrible good!

  • The opinion of  some1 who likes that crapy-sux-kidVampire-movie called The Covenant, worth nothing !

  • i had never listened to them.i heard this song and it's enough to make me a fan of them.great song!

  • @Nibe06 Check out Bullet, if you haven't already. My personal fav Covenant song.

  • @Nibe06

    If you liked Covenant, you'd like VNV Nation. Cheers

  • @dekonstrux Thanx man.U were absolutely right.I heard some songs of VNV and i liked them very much.Very nice music!

  • @Nibe06 im sure i dont need to tell you, but just incase, u should check out "bullet" too. awsome

  • @Nibe06 Same, but my first song was Call the Ships to Port (Club Version) :3. I <3 Covenant.

  • @Nibe06 Man find oy youtube Call the ships to port - I jsut love this track... :)

  • @Nibe06 You should check out the album. I was a music journalist at the time, and was embarrassed that no other band of this style could match up to it.

  • @Nibe06 same here - wow

  • Grandes!!!!

  • Great track by covenant

    Seen them live and they are the nr 2 live act i've seen... ever!

  • @djxzorcise i tink you are i prity bigg looser if you not now about music !

  • @djxzorcise Then you dont understand the meaning of the music.

  • Great track. Covenant are the electro-masters!

  • Good song.

  • Ja right, I am having a 'debate' with someone that listened to max 3 bands of EBM hahah Your musical 'education' is surely in another direction. As about good sense, your 40 years education in it, they surely failed. When your arguments are over, you try to use your age like a shield. 40 years of ellucubrating are even worse :) First listen to this music, and only after - write down opinions on the walls. You remind me an aphonous guy humming Bach but feeling cultured as hell in his pathetism:)

  • This debate over 'resembling' bands is denotes a juvenile pattern both in thinking, instincts AND musical education. For me, it's like an aphonous telling my (EBM) music is all sounding as Depeche Mode. There is no comparison between Covenant and Apoptygma (which I used to like to, before its 'muse'-alistik metamorphosis), neither between Covenant and VNV. Simply put, Covenant can't be compared to anything you ever met. Dot. And comparing anyway acts among themselves is an obscene gesture IMHO.

  • Comment removed

  • Bands like these got me into this type of music. A metropolis compilation. Amazing!

  • Actually, there are grounds for comparative observation. I should hardly think it juvenile or obscene. It is merely a matter of using one example as a descriptive medium for the overall sense of another.

    Example: "If you like Covenant, you might like VNV Nation as well. Give them a try."

    Fear of, or resistance to, descriptive categorization of relative data, only serves to make one less efficient in the communication of a concept.

  • Though, it seems you want to be this time "efficient in the communication of a concept" called artistic statement. And you have the urge of a "descriptive categorization of relative data" named ART. Therefore, I can go now make an algorithm comparing the bands in your debate hahaha

  • As about your example, it denotes lack of musical education and good sense :) First, you disregard the bands as having stand alone concepts and unique personalities. And second, you sound as teaching on youtube "EBM music in 14 minutes" or "music for newbies" through your (sorry but) lame "musical" associations. Bye for now "teacher" of "musical general culture". Ah, and just for your future elucubraciones: Covenant are not even into EBM, and eventually pissed off by this categorization.

  • I have almost 40 years of musical education and good sense, thank you.

    I did not disregard the bands each being able to stand on their own feet, I merely pointed out they have similarities to be ackowledged as well. In layman's terms "word of mouth" is how most bands gain listeners and that often includes an element of comparison. It does not matter one bit what a band itself thinks of those comparisons, they will occur regardless.

  • As to your own elucubraciones: You came on and threw a phrase like "juvenile pattern both in thinking, instincts AND musical education" at people you've never met for making obvious comparisons.. you expect maybe they won't notice you are juvenile in your own right? Pretentious little kid, aren't you? Stomp your feet, piss & moan, scream at they sky all you want. You've failed to notice that you've become part of the debate you called others juvenile for. Glad I could aid in your self discovery.

  • Comment removed

  • You claimed the original debate was juvenile. I pointed out you were taking part in said debate. You respond in a fashion even more juvenile than before. It's obvious that a) The original debate was not as juvenile as you would have others believe, or b) you are being willfully juvenile by definition of your own words. I'd say both at this point. Your assumptions are childish, foundless and only designed to boost your weak self esteem by attempting to degrade others.

    Done with you kid. Grow up.

  • Go gain some musical education instead of elucubrating on public messeging stuff. So you can claim after you're "za teacher' :)

    And learn not to project your own problems in 'debates', this is so mockable :) Good buy, old goat :)

  • You're still talking? I get it.. you're one of those kids that thinks the last word means you're the "winner". OK, you post after this and I promise I'll let you be the last. I don't need it. I won't even look at what you post. GUARANTEED. Just to let you know though, your word of the day calendar has more than one page. If you can learn to turn them, you won't be stuck using the same tired word on almost every post you make. Funny how your dependence on it shows how well you fit it's definition

  • Since music can be measured mathematically (BPM, etc), I suppose you could. Have fun with that.

  • amazing band
