    In an interview David did, he said he was worried how his fans would react to the song the first time they played it in their lineup since it's very different from what they usually do, but to his surprise he saw fans waving their cellphones and crying because they were so touched by the song as they were connecting to it. After that it became a "must play" song at every concert they did. Paul Simon actually contacted David and told him that he loved the cover so much that he added it to his social media content. You know you did good when the creator of a musical masterpiece tells you he loves your cover.

      I saw an interview he did where he said it was the longest studio time he spent on a song, doing it over and over. And when he came out of the booth he said the look on everyone's faces said he had done a stunning job, so he was very pleased.
      It was another band member who suggested doing quieter ballad style and building, rather than their usual approach.

He said he never spent more than an hour in the booth recording a song but he wanted to do this right and did a 3 1/2 hour session and said that when he walked out the entire band said “Yep that was it”.

      @@sawyerweathers8713 I've seen some of their videos I like, but I think largely it depends on whether you have an appreciation for that style of music (I call symphonic metal, but I'm sure there are other names). Their singer (whoever she is, and I believe that role has changed at least once) appear to my untrained ear to be quite good, but I, too, would like to hear the analysis of someone with actual vocal training. The bass player also sings (to me, fairly well) and the pair of them in their version of Phantom of the Opera I think are quite good. But, again, if you don't particularly care for their style of music, you're not going to be a rabid fan. So Egor, if you don't like it, that's fine. I definitely don't like everything I've heard.
