This song is so great that every version of it rules. Including this one and Metallica's cover.

I love the Stephen King introduction, it just sets the atmosphere and makes the song a lot creepier. I am torn between which version I like better, the one from Secret Treaties or this 80s remake. They're both so amazing on their own.

The original from Secret Treaties "blows away all others" if you're into heroin. The Imaginos version absolutely rocks. Why do you think that this version was produced? Live, it is a mind blower, too.

I live right near to where parts of this video was made, the big rock where you see a church like place, is called Roche Rock which is in Cornwall United Kingdom, if you want to see more pics of the place, please check out my facebook page called Roche Rock.

Dude... where the signature riff!? I haven't heard this song in mad long so I'm thinkin maybe I remember wrong, so went to metallica ver, and thought oh man did I get used to this? metallica added all that!? then found secret treaties an thought OH YEAH, this is it... this is good too, but suffers in my opinion from lack of the riff I know n love...

@tseekr379 You are absolutely right!

I'm a Metallica fan, their version is GREAT, but the original is AWESOME.

[DieseLTom]

i prefer metallica version :)

[zellorz]

Didn't hear this version yet, is so cool. I probably still prefer the original (Secret Treaties') but this is very nice to listen to. A bit more rocker.

Imaginos - a fine comeback album after the squalor of Mirrors, Revolution, and Ninja - thanks to the GREAT Albert Bouchard. They should have retired after thisrecord, with their reputation returned.

@geckoslick I agree, the original had the most epic ending ever. All versions of this song are brilliant though, whether it's the Secret Treaties version, the Metallica cover or the one from Imaginos. They're all different, but there's something about this song that makes it awesome even when it's changed around and altered.
