- NONPOINT releases their revision of "When Doves Cry". The single was originally released by Prince and the Revolution in 1984 and was one of the hit singles from the album Purple Rain.
Vocalist Elias Soriano says, “Our fans throughout the years have always had a quiet romance with the songs we like to cover. Seeing that our biggest showing in that category, our cover of Phil Collins ‘In The Air Tonight,’ was a suggestion from a friend and fan of the band, we thought it only fitting we let all our fans have a chance to throw their hats in the ring this time. So in the middle of a global pandemic, we threw up a bracket style voting tournament with a list of contenders from Metallica to DMX. As fans voted over a few weeks, it was exciting to watch it go from 16 songs to the final two, Metallica’s - Nothing Else Matters vs Prince’s - When Doves Cry. When they chose Prince, the real work began. We went through version after version. We knew we had to do it justice in the biggest way we could as tribute to Prince and still make it Nonpoint. I’m happy to report from initial response among the few who have heard it is exciting and we look forward to our fans singing it for years to come.”
Dr. Fink of Prince & The Revolution reacted by saying, "I just listened to Doves and thought it was great!"
He adds, "Nonpoint's revision of When Doves Cry by Prince and The Revolution rocks like a champion bullfighter slaying a prized bull!"
Ruthless EP available to stream on all platforms.

It takes a lot of cajones to dare to cover a Prince song. He truly was a legend in the world of music. Nonpoint- y’all did a good job on this.
No shit
Chris Cornell did an AMAZING cover of Nothing Compares 2 U!
Thank you
@@rasheedthomas1249 - this is one of the reasons why we the fans love you guys. You guys interact with us so much even though you guys all have lives of your own and are just as busy as we are. Much love and respect for you guys.
35 year Prince fanatic.
......
I don't hate it.
That's saying something because the mans was a tough act to follow.
🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Just like the original, this gives me chills. Metal head at heart, but have always been a die hard Prince fan. Thank you for doing this justice! RIP Purple one💜🎵🎶🎼
I have Prince's name and his symbol on my leg!! It's not quite finished!!! I need about 600 bucks to put a quote under the symbol
Prince was not metal music, but Prince was 1000% metal.
Absolutely agree. I was a Prince addict - still have the purple addiction. And this was *our song*. So you know If I approve - it's REALLY good, and it is.
I'm with you on this one. Total metal head but can't deny Prince kicked it too
This is awesome!!! and I am a Prince fan but love my metal flipping awesome🎶💯🎸
Nonpoint can't do no wrong. Nonpoint, and Sevendust doesn't get the recognition that they deserve! Ty, guys for being a part of my early 20s!
They don't really have a bad song. I have been jamming both bands for years. Yet they still dont come across in the convo when speaking of rock legends.
Thoughts exactly! Both of em
You're not wrong my friend. I have bled for the sweated for them and broke an ankle for sevendust. All worth it
Wow why you hating on them with that double negative.
can you imagine a Sevendust Nonpoint tour
I have been a fan for the better part of 25 years. Elias invited me to sit at his lunch table in the mall before a concert in Rhode Island and he has left an everlasting impact of how kind and good he is. I love the music you guys are great.
There isn't another drummer who makes it look more fun to be playing.
I beg to differ

I also beg to differ, this guy could make hot cross buns look like fun ❤️🥁
czcams.com/channels/C6PKfvfG3C5TYNgaR8BjnA.html
um Racy Shay
Who's this drummer
I 1000% beg to differ lol. There's a Japanese drummer named Junna that takes the #1 spot; you only need to watch one video to convince you, i promise 🙂
When I first heard this song by Nonpoint I started tearing up 😪 and now watching the video brought more tears
Nonpoint sang this song perfectly 🥰
RIP Prince 💜
First song I ever heard from this band was "What a Day" back in 2000. Here we are almost 22 years later and now I hear this incredible cover. You guys have come a LONG way. Thanks for the journey over the years, It's been one hell of a ride!
Hell ya. Me too on all this
Wow!! I just heard them for the first time right now. I can't believe that, I'm slacking 😎
What a Day and In the Air Tonight were my first foray into this band...Bullet With a Name on It is my favorite track tho🤘🤘
Same. What a day on the radio
same. What a day on a bootleg Ozzfest 2000 CD in East Kazakhstan.
Just stumbled on this today. Not sure why it didn't show up in my feed sooner and why this doesn't have more views... Come on CZcams get it right!!!
I've always liked this band. Not sure why they aren't more popular. The man can sing.
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥, the band is great but the singers overall cadence is so insanely good on this track it overshadows everything.
At first, I didn't like it, but as I kept listening, I found myself getting reeled back in and loved it. Very Ballsy song to cover.
Because it takes like 1:30 mins top kick in lmao.
Gave me cold shivers, beautiful guys. Love it.
“In the air tonight” your version has been my favourite song for 14 years.
Yes! I love that song
There is a reason I've been a fan of these guys for 20 years! They continue to grow, adapt, slay live shows, and make amazing music! This video gave me chills! Great job by the whole team, you should be extremely proud of yourselves! ❤
Thanks Dawn, it’s fans like you that keep us creating. 🤘🏽🕺🏽
Damn dude I feel old.. been a fan for 20 years as well, didn’t realize it was that long
Love you Dawn, thanks for always reppin
@@EliasSoriano44 absolutely!
HOLY SH$&!!!! I SEEN these guys for the first time 15 years ago I can't remember with who 7Dust maybe ... Damn Non point & 7Dust. I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY THEY ARNT JUST HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEYVE WORKED SO HARD FOR YEARS AND YEARS!!!!!!!!! UGH!!! IM BEYIND WORDS !!! I STUMBLED ON THIS LISTENING TO OLD SONGS OMG!!!!!!STREAM THIS!!!!!!!!!
I saw them in 2006 with disturbed, stonesour, and flyleaf. It was an amazing experience.
I seriously waited for the breakdown and fuck yesssss thats all i can say this is literally one of the best covers existed till this day
Everyone: "Nobody will ever be able to remake 'When Doves Cry'."
Nonpoint: "Hold our beer."
Did not think anyone should redo Prince, but have to admit this is a great version!!
Thank you,👍🏿
Check out Shamen's harvest. Their cover is great too
Let's just say, nobody will ever be able to remake "When Doves Cry" well.
So far the only ones to pull it off are them and Lenny Kravitz
This is what is sounds like when greatness puts their flavor on a truly timeless classic. Chills listening to this revision. Absolutly loved this.
I have been a huge fan of Nonpoint for over 20 years. They continue to amaze me at everything they do. Great cover. I know Prince is looking down an smiling
Prince hated people covering his songs. He said everyone should only play their own music. He stood stubbornly strong on that opinion
@isaiahmarker407 sucky covers like this are the reason why
Oh. My. Damn!!!! Freakin' best Prince cover EVER!!!
Robb the drummer... he was so kind to me .. years ago , let me come on the bus and hang out.. i will never forget that... they are the only band that can nail these sacred covers... their old bass player hector was in my friend max's band for years. all great guys
We’re only getting older
48 here..
And much rings true, so true
Scream at each other.. scream at ya own self...
NonPoint! F*ck Yeah! ever since bullet with a name! I always dug this Prince song, I CAN'T wait.
I just got done seeing them live tonight fucking the best show ever and the only good band there I can’t wait to meet them in January in Battle Creek mi
Thanks! See you there.
Non point is such an underrated band.
And like most cycles, they repeat generation after generation until someone decides to change. Doves 🕊 and metal blended together perfectly Nonpoint 🎶 🤘🏻
Also forgot to add Elias vocal are so fucking good ofc when u think about it he’s never sounded bad he’s one of the many singers who still have there voice despite how many years they’ve been doing it
Thanks buddy I appreciate it 🕺🏽🤘🏽
Nonpoint believe it or not is new to me. If I could vote for MY band of the year, its FN Nonpoint. Thanks for the tunes
Hope you guys do this track justice. You nailed “In the air tonight” so I know you’ll do so again!
Prince would be proud!!
🙏🏼🕺🏾
Turning a Prince song into hard rock is allready hard. To do it and make it sound good. Has to be on point. You all did it here.
Keep these things ,songs by Prince,close to heart.🤘😇
Nailed it! And this is coming from a Prince fan who still mourns him.
I think that even he would smile at this.
Damn good show!
I love this band, they literally helped me get through a lot of bad times in my life. Bands like Nonpoint don get the recognition that they deserve. This band truly does have a gift. Thank you Nonpoint for the music. #respectandlove
Step One - Remove Label
Step Two - Get Back to the Roots that made fans love you
Step Three - Include Fanbase in the voting
Step Four - Release a Masterpiece cover like this
This transformation has been so fun to watch. Keep it up, guys. You're absolutely killing it (and seem to be having a lot more fun now).
🤫🤫🤫🤫
Thank you 🙏🏼
You also took notes! Well done sir. 🤘🏽🕺🏽
@@EliasSoriano44 Seeing the interaction increased tenfold since dumping the label has, at least to me, implied y'all are having a lot more fun now. That means a lot to us as fans.
Good job on the song, except for the one incorrect lyric line. It's "Even doves have pride", not "Even doves that cry".
I cant stop listening!
THIS is what GREATNESS sounds like!!!!!!!
We're sending out this one to someone special...
WOW! I think Prince would have loved this.
Watching black men, and white men making Rock music together warms the soul. Soulful, and metal beats together the way it should be. Rock on. I got to see them live years ago. and I did not see then what I see now. Thank you for doing what so many others don't have the balls to do. Our skin color may be a bit different, but our love for Rock and Roll will always be shared.
It’s all Love 🖤❤️
Who needs coffee when you got Nonpoint to wake you the fuck up on a Monday! 🤘😎🤘
I dip my Nonpoint in my coffee. Works like a charm.
Imma a huge Prince fan. Really great to hear modern artists covering his songs 🎵 🎶 🎵 🎶 🎵 🎶 🎵
I was skeptical of even presos play because I have so much respect for Prrince but man, you guys did awesome!! If someone had told me that a band was gonna make a Prrince cover in new metal style in 2021 I would have laugh out loud.
Dammit. Come on nonpoint. Release it now. Can't wait
I recommended this cover to a couple worker, he was skeptical about a "prince cover". I told him this band did justice on this, they really make you say "holy shit". Monday morning rolls around and first thing he said was I listened to that song and it was bad ass, he said he listened to it on repeat! This band is truly amazing!
What’s a couple worker? He’s a marriage counselor?
I just can't get enough of this
This is still one of the most underrated bands of all time! Been seeing them at the machine shop in flint for seems like 15 years!!
I think these guys go the mile for other musicians music. I remember when in the air tonight came out and I was blown away. This is the only prince cover that hits the spot.. bold move fellas. You did it.
my 74 yr old Dad loves this and he doesn't like metal at all. Pure gold
I cannot wait to jam at a live show with Nonpoint at the helm 🥰
Y’all got some fancy footwork that looks like it might be fun to mimic on the dance floor.
Be safe in 2022 and enjoy life 🙂
Nonpoint and Disturbed are incredible with covers.
I agree that Nonpoint's covers are on point, but I think you meant Type O Negative instead of Disturbed. Unless you were referring to how incredibly bad their cover of "Sound of Silence" was, that is. It's one of my top 3 least favorite covers along with Busta Rhymes cover of "Iron Man" from Sabbath. Both are atrocious.
@@williamparrish5002 k cool man good stuff
At 11 years old I was a die hard nonpoint fan.. 24 years later and they're still fuckin incredible.
"THERE IS A SPIRITUAL REALM OUTSIDE OF OUR HUMAN UNDERSTANDING"!
Was skeptical at first, but you guys did an OUTSTANDING job on a classic Prince cover tune without butchering it. Nice job!!!
I'm so pumped
Absolutely sick! This doesnt get the attention it should get!
I Bet Prince would've loved this!
Everytime I introduce this band to someone who hasn't heard them, it's always the same response. They're blown away. Because you're something special. Thank you for making my life more enjoyable. Amo Voce'
It’s cause of your first name. 😜
As a metalhead and also a Prince fan i really like this. This is a great cover. The Purple One would be happy to see that his music travels in genres and that it doesn't stay in one shape and box.
Yea Prince would have enjoyed this
I have loved this song since before I heard "What a day" for the first time over 20 years ago. Then there was "In the air tonight." Now I am sure this will be on repeat for a long while! Thank you Nonpoint for always being awesome!
Damn that footwork though at 1:45
Mixed in some Salsa dance move there. Awesome as usual Nonpoint
🔥🔥🔥
Pointy MoFo's 😎 Always on their A+ game🤘All 9 times I have seen them, they rock 100%💜
That’s right.. we work 60% of the time 100% of the time. With real bits of panther!
I’m feeling this!!!
Keep coming back to this, can't get enough!!! 🖤🤘🏻
I am always nonpoint fan loveeee
Yea, that was pretty badass!!
Prince is smiling with joy right now at the these dudes! Nonpoint is a runaway train to U2 status!!!
I have always thought this band was badass. Glad there still playing. Always been talented.
Holy hell. My new favorite band !!!!
I've said for years their version of in the air tonight is the best remake ever, not even close. I was happily wrong, this is the best remake ever. God I love this band!
you don't like music
Hell yeah!!!
Can't wait for this 🤘🔥
Why?
@@rockeruss555 Haha. I'm excited to see the video for this that's why. 🤘
Whatttt I gotta see this!!
Wow! Honestly... I was blown away by this! Chills like you wouldn't believe!
Non point makes me move wildly to
Princess when doves cry. We.😅 Miss you prince
You guys did Prince proud!
" Wow Very Special Version This Song .. Great Sounds on Power Band Player and Vocal Expression ". .. NonPoint it's My Point. .. So' Good ... ☺😊😉/🎼🎶💙🎵🎸🎵/👍✌👌👏👋
Grazie!!!!! Appreciate the love
Mannn Bad ass!! 🎸 no music better than rock! The feeling you get when your up there singing I bet is the best.
Oh my goodness I am so stoked for this ,much love and appreciation God bless keep rocking all
This is how this song was meant to be. F'n BEAUTIFUL
Really looking forward to hearing this!!!
If you want more covers, they did one of Santana - Evil Ways as an obscure B-side or something that completely kicks ass!! I’ve been a fan for 20 years and still don’t know why it wasn’t promoted as a single or featured on an album, but anyway it’s on all the streaming services and iTunes and their “Best Of” album.
They also did In the Air Tonight
Thanks I’ll have to look that up
YES - thank you
nonpoint is an absolutely amazing band, the energy these guys put out is second too none!!
Nice it’s gonna be epic
Prince would be proud. Well done.
wrong
Nonpoint was and is totally on point when it comes to Princes "When doves cry"!!! Best version ever. Im 50 and you guys totally nailed it.
Prince was a KING on heavy metal. A KING . Commercial bussiness does not allow him to show it very often. Long Live to Annie Christian - Long Live to Prince - The master musician.
Amazing job guys. Looking forward to hanging out with all of you soon.
This cover is one of the best covers done by any band, ever. That’s music, the oddity that can hit me in a completely different way than the original song hit me from the start. I love nonpoint, seriously so much.
I also wanna give some recognition to the director of this music video. As it is so clean and emotionally compelling but baffling to me too. cause it’s the same style video rock bands have been using for always yet it is magnified by the Preformance and sharpness
Still BLOWN NO WORDS TO NOnpoint you ON POINT NEVER STRAY!!!!!!! GENIUS!!!!!!
They definitely did this song justice.
🔥🔥🔥 🔥🔥🔥 🔥🔥🔥
Badass!!!!
When this came up in my notifications, I wasn't sure what to expect but as soon as it started, I got chills down my spine, I'm a huge Prince fan and Nonpoint did an amazing job of making this song their own
Thank you 🙏🏽
fave band of all time. met them. great guys
i know what its like to have your beautiful facial hair turn grey brother... i feel your age through my bones
Kick Ass Guys!
Excellent Cover!✊🏾👏🏾 Bizzy Bone and Nonpoint nailed it!🔥
No damn bizzy bone in this song or video fool
@@CleveMetal4lifeLive Thank you.
good lord Nonpoint I remember them being a warm and loving band when they played Jokers in Fayetteville NC
I just listened to their cover of In The Air tonight. And then this pops up 🤘💥
