@PantalaimonX13 Although now they are way better than they were in 2005. That was their worst year because Ville was drinking A LOT. Now he doesn't anymore so his voice got better again. Not as amazing as iin the 90's and early 00's but loads better than in 2005.
I disagree with the comments about this being a poor performance. I've watched quite a few live performances of this particualr song and must say this is the best by Ville so far. The audio is pretty good. Only other one I can think of is the Orpheum which was recorded live in 08 as well.
Sorry to say, and it may have much to do with the increased (actually rushed) tempo in this version, but he lacks the strength / power he used to have in his voice, just compare this version to the Overdrive Concert, it's far superior in THAT one, there IS no comparison.

These knob-gobblers took a great song and ruined it!! Probably just for the fact that someone might do a search for "wicked game" to see Chris Isaak do it and accidentally click on their fruitcake video. I never heard of this band before I did just that ( and now I know why) THEY SUCK ASS!! These guys could not lick Type o Negatives ass-crack! Then again they probably already did! The singer should gain some weight then learn how not to sing like he has anal warts in his throat!!
@mamaluke1 To mamaluke1 and other stupid persons of this type: Ville Valo is good at everything what he does and you can only envy him his talent, success and attraction.
Many bands play songs half a step down when on tour so that the vocalist isn't straining their voice too much.
Check out Rush's 2112 on the Rio gig, they play it half a step down and it's very noticable... then again Geddy Lee has to go that high that it's no wonder they do! ^_^
Oh yeah? You're telling HIM how to play their songs? That's ridiculous!
I don't fancy Burton taking too big role with backround vocals because his voice is kinda nasal. Mige's voice is beautifully smooth, and so is Ville's. Ville is in incredibly good shape in these RAR 2008 videos.
Really awesome voice! This kinda clothing and long hair as in this video is really great! He gives me that original gothic-metal feeling as he used to give me some years ago. (L) 4Xmple in 2005 -time of Dark Light- I think he just lost that great gothic style. All in all, now I am so happy of him being again that gothic Ville Hermani Valo. :D (L)(L)(L)(L)(L)
anyway when start be famous in europe he was 23 or 24 he was really beautiful and handsom now he is 33 so he can looks older... and he smoking and drinking too much thats why his face look tired... but i love him any way for betting great person... sorry for my english but im from poland:))
that's the reason why I didn't want to have a bf because ones when he or she broke up with you it's like a pain in the heart that is not very easy to forget
its true his tone of voice has changed but for me he singing better now...i can see his face look older but everyone gettin older but for me he always will be beautifull an great:))) i just love ville and all band:))) HIM for ever:))))))))))
Ville is getting older and older... Just like everyone. I can see the itme on his face..... But for me he will allways be that bohemic young guy, and his music will never be old-fashioned... :)
mmm la voz de Ville sigue pareciéndome hermosa..sin embargo me entristece que ya no alcance, es a causa del cigarrillo, pero hay que decir la misma se ha recuperado bastante...ojalá y uno de estos días nos de la noticia de que dejó el cigarrillo como una vez lo dio con que dejaba la bebida....creo hasta esta canción no había notado esto...los bajos como siempre son perfectos...
i have to say that ville's voice has gotten soooo much better!! his younger days were awesome 7 amazing as well, but it was based more on 'strength' and now hes actually SINGING, like using his vocals- playing with pitch and tones.....HIM 4ever! \m/
Wow! Ville's vocals have gotten so much better live since the Dark Light era videos. Im not trying to diss him either, his range is fuckin crazy and hes my fav vocalist/songwriter
Yea, I stopped listening to HIM once Dark Light came out. I was a huge fan for four years, 13-17, literary obsessed. Now I think the fascination is baaaaack! WOOT.
I like their version alot but ,I hate to listen to these rock am ring festival videos. the sounds always so badly mixed. the quality is good but the background vocals are always too loud and so is the bass. you can barely hear the guitars.
open handed drummers are the best! what about Billy Cobham? it's the hardest way to play the drums, you have to be very technically able, to play open- handed! xX
This is the best cover version of Chris Isaak's song that I have ever heard, Hey this band rocks and I just love the action of the drummer. Ville's voice is amazing, didnt think he could do the high bits but he done great. Bravo! First time I have listened to these guys and I will be back for more.
