Wow, I must say I am impressed. Love the Scorpions version, but this does do the song justice.
I think much of what Haddaways problem was is that he suffered a bit of the "One Hit Wonder" curse with "What is Love?", plus the fact that it was popularized by the classic SNL sketch. So although the song made him famous, it didn't make his talent and beautiful voice famous and he was forever typecast as the "danceclub/techno singer".
this guy certainly does do this song justice, every word is crystal clear, every note perfect, sung with passion.how often can we say that about a copy? first time for me at least.
Haddaway has a great voice, and of course he looks very good. Strange to understand how he couldn't have a long successful career, while other less talented singers could. But the 90's are back now, and Haddaway now has shows all over the world.
Yes Haddaway has an amazing voice, I wish he would put out more cds, you guys should hear the song who do you love? by Haddaway amazing, thanks for this one
How many stars have worked as a choreographer, textiles trader and carpet fitter? Who has played American football, practices aikido, and feels as safe on a snowboard and skis as he does behind the wheel of a rally car? And who speaks not only English, Dutch, French and German but also pure Cologne dialect? Polarisation is the overriding component. In musical terms, Haddaway has a polarising effect too. Many people know his work from the 90s and see him as the spearhead for Euro-dance pop.AMEN
It's certainly a very close thing as to which one I prefer... I think I do prefer the original because of the instrumentation but his voice does a great slightly more acoustic version. Not often a cover actually does the original justice.
Not really. Actually you're racist, you see some racist innuendo here that I didn't. If it was about a white artist and a white politician you wouldn't see anything offensive here, so it's you who is treating black people differently than other people. Tolerance is not about that.
well if that's not racist, please explain to me the connection between haddaway and obama that you referred to when you said "Hope it wasn't made to promote Obama. ;p "
Obama's "change" slogan. Plus all the hype from many artists (especially rock musicians, also worldwide not only american) he got in many interviews. That's all, I would've thought of it if Ace of Base or Modern Talking did a cover of this song. :p
Wow! It's the first time I hear this version of "Wind of change" and I am mesmerised!!! Haddaway has a beautiful voice and he does justice to such a special song. He is also a gorgeous man ;-)
hesjust maybe in a song competition so hes singing the song by The Scorpions and this video title could be replaced i am not saying it has but i mean you could do that.
I am pleased to hear a very good cover of any song by Scorps!! This guy didn't get all carried away with riffs and vocals all over the place. He remained true to the song. The guitar player on the other hand just didn't do justice to the solo. But it's not about the guitar player, it's the singer who deserved kudos. ;-D
Never heard anything from Haddaway aside from What is Love. I wasn't sure what to think when I first started watching this video. I am pleasantly surprised. He has a really nice voice and his cover of Winds of Change he has done a nice job with.
the best music Haddaway Winds of change sou brasileiro esse cantor fez o maior sucesso na década de 90 eu particularmente sou apreciador de uma boa musica .
