Cover versions

[Symphony]

As I mentioned a while back we are trying to sort out some cover versions to be recorded as bonus tracks for future releases and I thought it would be pretty cool to ask you guys if there are any songs you think would be good to do.

So over to you.....

 

[WeekendWarrior]

sure ..
i have some suggestions..don't take it all serious :

- alone (heart)
make a faster version or a ballad version.

- owner of a lonely heart (yes)
you already thought of that one

some maiden suggestions:

- be quick or be dead (maiden)
oh my fucking god, that would be awesome with a power quest version of that one!
- can i play with madness (maiden)
yep!
- run to the hills (maiden)
YEAH!

carry on (manowar)
my favorite manowar song!

- poison (alice cooper)
that would be awesome!

- walk of life (dire straits)
hehe, what do you think of that one steve?

 

[Eagle]

Rainbow's - Lady Of The Lake would be a good one for you to cover.

 

[Symphony]

Some great ideas so far...cool!

Dire Straits...what...really? hehe!

 

[WeekendWarrior]

i must say that i wasn't to serious with that one, hehe.

 

[Symphony]

Phew.....thank the Gods of Metal!

 

[WeekendWarrior]

hehe!

NP: manowar - the gods made heavy metal

 

[Symphony]

hehe! right I gotta run! Later!

 

[Morning Field]

Crimson Glory - Lonely
Y & T - Rescue Me
X Japan - Rusty Nail
Riot - Warrior
Lion - STRANGER IN THE CITY
TNT - TONIGHT I'M FALLING

 

[WeekendWarrior]

what do you think about the maiden suggestions?

NP: lake of tears - shadowshires
have anyone heard this band? some of their songs is amazing!
they remind me a little bit of metallica...

 

[ATHALLUS]

Here's my suggestions for some cover songs. I hope they are good choices:

Magic-Pilot

Run To The Hills-Iron Maiden

Crytsal Ball-Styx

Come Sail Away-Styx

Show Me The Way-Styx

Point Of Know Return-Kansas

Escape-Journey

On The Loose-SAGA

Heat Of The Moment-Asia

Sweet Lorriane-Uriah Heep

I think these songs would make worthy Power Metal version cover songs.
I hope they are good ideas but you can pick whatever songs you lke, of course guys.

 

[ATHALLUS]

Oh yeah- how about:

Heaven Tonight-Waysted

10,000 Lovers-TNT

 

[WeekendWarrior]

nice suggestions athallus!
yeah, a cover of 10,000 lovers would be interesting!

 

[Symphony]

WW....I like the idea of "Can I play with madness" and I've also thought about

"Alexander the Great" and "Caught somewhere in time"

Some cracking suggestions all round though! Cheers!

 

[dragonmaiden]

I think a Maiden cover would be cool. Another suggestion...maybe Powerslave???

"So bring me the blood and red wine of the one to succeed me"

 

[Kalmakoff]

How about Madonna's Frozen , or Edge of Thorns by Savatage?

WW: I have all the Lake of Tears albums. They're all great.

 

[WeekendWarrior]

cool!
i'm thinking about buying their 2002 release "the neonai".
i think that would be a good investment


NP: lake of tears - greater art

 

[Kalmakoff]

Yep, The Neonai is definitely worth every penny. The drums are played by mr. Machine though, so the drum sound is rather disco-ish but that doesn't bother me. One of the best releases of 2002.

 

[WeekendWarrior]

ok then.
i will order it today from: www.ginza.se
let us hope i'm going to like it ..i'm sure i will


NP: blackmores night - all because of you
