I FINALLY HAVE HEADPHONES!!! YEE HAAA! QUEENSRYCHE AS LOUD AS I WANT! hehehe.... i know... am pitaful, lol.
-
@drmattisinthehouse Wow, I didn't know Come on Feel the Noise was a cover. I was about to post a comment asking if you weren't thinking of Mama We're All Crazy Now (as I actually knew that was a Slade cover). But not being fond of the taste of my own foot (I'm safely assuming) I thought I better look it up first. But you're right, that was a cover too.
-
The only band that ever mattered....Ever!! yup yup
-
Love this song - their best in my opinion though gutted when i found out it was a cover!
-
@amary7940 That is usually 90% of the time, when it comes to original vs. the first version I hear. One example is Come on feel the noise by Quiet Riot vs. Slade. This was the last Queensryche album me and my mother would listen to, before she traded the Rock genre for Hiphop and Pophop crap these days. I myself am stronger in this genre still.
-
The original is pretty cool, but I think this cover is better. The incessant 80's synth background in the original is a bit grating.
I have also viewed this song as a commentary on the sleazy, creepy "girls, girls, girls/ fuck em and dump em" objectification that the Queensryche's contemporaries (Motley Crue/Scorpions/etc) were engaging in at the time.
-
@dianemonteitn Similar, Eddie Vedder covering "Indio" (Hard Sun).
I'm sure Queensryche, respected Lisa Dalbello; simply by covering this song.
That's the ultimate part of musical respect: a cover. All good, I'm sure!
-
Awesome song.......epitome of 80's
-
you would think i'm a fool or maybe some kind of lunatic

@TheStickynoodle nawwwwwwwwwwwwwww

@dylanskriloff Absolutely, friend.
Rule #1 of Cover Tunes:
Never do it as well, or worse, than the original version.
If you perform it as well, you're just regurgitating someone else's art. If you do it worse, then you're butchering art. Simple enough, right?
Queensryche does, indeed, OWN this song. \m/
-
really? I find this version objectively better, they own this song, it's quite impressive when a band takes a cover and owns the song, like Jimi Hendrix with All Along the Watchtower
-
@TheStickynoodle Queensryche were big fans of Lisa Dalbello's. There was a rumour that Geoff Tate and Lisa were dating.
-
Dalbellos versions is sooo much better
-
So close
-
Love the uploader's comments although I fear for the adullt wearing diaper populace, which there is a good chance we'll be joining in a decade or so
-
lacht... so alt und schön,,, ich bin jung ;=)geblieben haha
-
Brandy, remember this? Here's 2U my friend. RIP.
-
EINFACH GEIL!!!!!!!!!
-
Objectively I think the original is better, but personally I prefer this version. Maybe because I heard this one first.
-
This version is great, but I like Dalbello's better. This is one is a bit too noisy...Dalbello's is so much more suggestive and subtle.
wow! seems like you are as popular as you are friendly...
maybe if you could refrain from spitting out hateful garbage, you might get a little better response
! as for me, i am completely unimpressed with your crybaby insults demanding attention....
why don't you just hire a nanny to change your lil' die-dee and give you a fresh pacifier!!
