Pop Goes Metal | Metal Covers Part 1

- čas přidán 20. 10. 2020
- Ankor, Halestorm, Trynity, Within Temptation, Lacuna Coil, and Children of Bodom.
We all have "guilty pleasure pop songs" we listen to when nobody is watching, some of them are composed very well with catchy melodies, but what if those songs where turn into metal?
Although I know many of you will say you prefer the original versions I love what this metal artists did with the songs. Subscribe and recommend some songs for part 2. All the songs are in a playlist I made so you can listen the songs with no interruptions.

i like Graveworm version of Losing my Religion more
@@hilly8000 So I find bad guy and also losing my religion of Leo better.
This is what I needed so thank you for putting this up.
You forgot to add Leo of Frogleap to your list.
Well anything within temptation is gold so.....
Metal is always better than pop. Change my mind
Mostly, there are a couple good pop songs though
I don't know. I actually like the original versions very much. Big fan of Halestorm, but Lady Gaga is awesome.
The Bille Elish one is the one that I disliked.
@Radar Don huh?
Nothing honey nothing can change our minds metal really do be givin me goosebumps
Is it just me or are the metal covers more.... alive?
Hell yeah!
Every pop song sounds better in metal to me. You make a great point that they sound more "alive!"
Some pop songs sounds just too shitty to me to sound good even in metal. Some pop songs are great and have that metal potential in them and thus they sound extremely good in metal.
Everyone concentrates only on heaviness. But metal always benefits from some harmonies and other stuff. Pop music usually doesn't have that, so even metal versions don't sound so good. For example, most pop music is in major key and metal works best in minor key to my taste. And there is everything else.
The problem with pop music is that it is so canned, so processed, that you might as well be listening to a piece of wood.
yup
That scream after bad guy in metal WAS WHAT THE SONG NEEDED
Every time I see someone react to Pisces, I want a Jinjer cover of Oops I Did It Again haha. But growling the chorus.
I would love to see that lol
Children of bodom did that one. Oops i did it again...great cover
Metal covers is always making pop songs sound good
Title: "Pop Goes Metal"
Me: "Wait, this is not an Amaranthe video?" 😁
That reverb in Bad Guy was amazing.
Summertime Sadness done by Within Temptation also is amazing
yuuuup
And Dirty dancer
@@lonelygirl1348 yeah
Lacuna Coil's version of "Losing my Religion" is Sooooo Good!!!
(And I do love R.E.M. too).
\m/ \m/
Given that's how I first heard it, I thought it was theirs
I think their best cover is Enjoy the Silence
Lacuna Coil's version of Enjoy the Silence is pretty sweet, too. There's nothing wrong with covers, I really like seeing what different people do with the same song :)
I actually thought lacuna coil's version was an original 😂 until a friend started singing along and I was like "do you know Lacuna Coil?" All surprised and stuff lol. They both are cool
@@metalground212 I'd consider that mainstream repertoire, at least here in Germany where it is on the radio often. Especially on those stations that specialize on 80ies music (it's also on the SingStar 80ies version ;P) The Depeche Mode original is from the 80ies, but they also did a new version in I guess 2010 or something which already sounds a bit heavier than the original does. Definitely is a cool song, no matter the version. And if that helps bridge the gaps between different music styles that's even more of a plus in my book :)
Actually I prefer Lacuna Coils cover of "Enjoy the Silence" by Depeche Mode.
@@metalground212 One of those amazing songs that metal only makes it better. Enjoy the Silence is another one with great metal potential. Other pop songs just don't work.
graveworms cover is better...lacuna coils cover of enjoy the silence is good though
Im glad, metal heads and metal heads come in to make the pop community better. By turning every song into metal.
I think Lady Gaga and Christina Aguilera could have been amazing rock and metal singers if they had decided to go that route with their careers, they certainly have the vocal skills and power in their voices and I've heard them cover rock songs and do great. Such a shame, wasted talent. Britney maybe not for metal, but she would have been a great rock and punk rock singer. Again, unfortunately she went a different way. In general, rock bands and singers tend to be more level headed than pop artists and a lot longer careers.
Lady Gaga before become "lady gaga" played rock. But music industry doesn't want a crazy girl called "stefanie germanotta"
@@IgnacioAOlivar the name Lady Gaga is cool. I just think she's got the voice for soul, blues, rock and even metal. I know the music industry favors other styles unfortunately. Maybe if she'd been born 10 or 20 years earlier she'd have been a huge rockstar.
What the title should say is: when pop becomes good music
These covers gave chills to my BRAIN
I'm hopping Alex Terrible's cover is in here LoL
within Temptation are so- so- good
Halestorms Bad Romance is epic!!! XD
Yoooo , Lzzy Hale gave an unbeliveble performance 🤘
1:03 just found it on spotify 3 days ago and just fall in love...
I love that last one. Poor Brittnay. 😂😂😎😎🤘
This what I picture inside my mind whenever I listen to pop.
Oh the wonderful notes that the metal singers hit are just so much more amazing then the pop notes
So proud to be a metalhead in 2023.
I’m so glad this was part of my recommendations
A Billie Eilish song with actual singing talent exists?
No need to be rude. Some people like Billie Eilish. If you dont like her that much, keep it to yourself.
Billie is talented. You cant say she’s a bad singer but I’m not really into that type of music. But I do respect her ;/
@@amtul6926 she can put music together. That she can do. But from what songs of hers I've heard, she cant sing
@@joshuaschroeder6713 thank you!
@@joshuaschroeder6713 she can sing, and she has a beautiful voice
gotto say, i am loving the britney and children mix up :)
Every metal cover nailed the pop
Was expecting to hear Normandie's cover of Chandelier. Cool to hear a hand I haven't heard of before though👌🏻
I have never heard of Normandie, I just checked them out they are cool I liked them, I will make sure to add some of their music on a video next week! Thanks for suggesting!!
Okay, that Chandelier cover by Trynity was way better than I expected.
I've gone down the rabbit hole of your vids, highly entertaining, I subscribed and look forward to more. My wife is a huge Nightwish and Epica fan, so I know that metal vocalists blow pop ones out of the water...keep spreading the word!
@Ankor!!! Love that version!!
You wanna hear the Katy Perry I kissed a girl power metal cover by Andy Xiong. Now that's epic.
Within Temptation's version of summertime sadness by lana del rei is pretty awsome, maybe include it in another video.
Nice to see ankor here
Ankor super cool💖💖💖👌
Ankor son sensacionales
Cara muito bom
Que legal saber que existe isso
Obrigada
Metal always better, definitely,live and love metal.
How cool~~
Yeah, part 2 is urgently needed. Disturbed "Shout", Type'O'Negative "Summer Breeze" and "Day Tripper"...
Quite a few still kicking around...
Cheers!
I.
Thanks for your comments I added Disturbed "Shout" on the second part czcams.com/video/5ENywnM_ZHQ/video.html
@@metalground212 the only good cover Disturbed ever did was "Land of Confusion" and don't get me started on "The Sound of Silence", look how they massacred my boy...
Written by Wolves - Elastic Heart cover
Upon this Dawning - Call Me Maybe cover
One Last Night - Humble cover
Lacuna and R.E.M kickass
Live to Tell by Lacuna Coil (Madonna cover).
Metal Covers are always better!
Ohhh Metal Ground is doing Gods work 🤘🔥🙏
This way it can be compared bot of them, it's a great video :3
Ankor actually makes Bad Guy actually good
I’m surprised Exit Eden wasn’t included in this video.
Rhapsodies in Black is spectacular
@@ZabreDarklight it is!! I wish they made more music :(
Popsa Дно! ROCK FOREVER!!!
Good!!! Look Brutal 6 with Smell Like Teen Spirit
Meral is freaking amazing, look up Frog Leap Studios that guy definitely is freaking talented I love his work and the guy is from Finland so english isn't his own language but still makes amazing work
4:17 there's nothing worse than a skinny man who can't throw a punch, mimic a one-two in a metal cover of a pop song
Finally I can like 'Bad Guy'. No offence to anyone, but I'm not into mumbling and whispering the whole song.
The covers were very good.
Metal makes everything better🤘
Of course, don't forget the cover by Machinae Supremacy "Gimme more" by Britney spears.🥵👌🏼
The cover of Lord of the Lost of Bad Romance is also a pretty nice one :)
2:11 Doom Slayer singing in the shower
The Swedish band "Lillasyster" covered Rihanna's "Umbrella", much better than the originial
Can’t believe they didn’t use LOTL‘s Version of Bad Romance😂😅
Summer Breeze by Type O Negative (Seals & Crofts cover).
Thanks so much Eric. Will definitely check all of these songs out!
Who the he Is seals & crofts. Because I have never even heard of them.
Lzzy Hale is better than Ga Ga at singing Ga Ga. I’m very impressed.
But not surprised.
Excelente video bro me gusto mas el cover de Ankor de bad guy
When I saw chandelier I expected Alex terrible but still a pretty good list.
Holy shit. The chandelier one gave me literal chills
Alex's Cover is way better (imo)
@@diego.rss_3552 agreed
Children of Bodom give me Chills!!!
Its a bad ass cover.. and i love the look on people faces when play it loud in the car 🤣
I play that cover in the kitchen I work in, I get some right looks and comments too
The Q-Music Sessions Album de Within Temptation 🔥
Sometimes cover is better than the original.
not in this video though
Hard rock -the 💯👏👍
Need to check out Leo from Frog Leap Studio’s covers of pop songs.
Thanks for the recommendation! He seams to be pretty big in the metal cover music scene. I saw many of his videos and I might include one of his songs in the future! :)
Leo is the Best :)
He does a better cover of badguy
@@metalground212 there no need to check anyone else out. Noone can compete with him. Not even close.
I was going to make the same comment. He is great!
If life gave me a 2nd chance, I'd definitely be born as a KICK🤘
Graveworm version , losing my religion 😎🤘🤘🤘😁
Pop:
-boring
-lifeless
-no guttural screams
Metal:
-epic
-lively
-screams for days BREEE BREEE!
Today’s pop yes. But 90s and 80s pop were the best kind of pop IMO
Metal is like Nesquik.
Everything is good, if you add enough Nesquik.
El último es el mejor de toda la historia Alexi por siempre eterno
Pop songs sound so much better metaled up 😁
Who was the pop singer that did a metal/hard rock version of her own song and killed it live on one of the award shows
You should put STDC - Titanium cover man, they did amazing job
This is what I love about Lzzy's voice. She can sing with that epic low tone raspy rocker's voice and also hit those high clean and flawless notes. That is talent on a whole different level.
And on a side note: I don't know what people see in Billie Eyelashes. Mumble whispering is not a talent and overall she's just plain useless, and now apparently she's singing for the opening credit sequence for the new James Bond movie. Have the producers heard The Pretty Reckless' new song, 25?
25 gave me chills when I first heard it
Survivor by Die Happy
Hello by Leo
I love it when Metal does Pop songs better.
well metal has been always go better with pop music all along
I at least thought that you would have chosen alex terirble with chandelier
Should have included In This Moment's covers of Creep and Call Me. Nonetheless, I thoroughly enjoyed the compilation. :)
Thanks will definitely do a second and third part. I just don't want to extend the video to much cuz people don't watch it.
@@metalground212 Awesome! I checked your reviews on Nightwish and Jinjer. Could you do ones now on In This Moment and Arch Enemy?
If you guys want to see a cool cover of Chandelier and bad guy. Alex terrible from Slaughter to prevail. Did cool covers of both of those songs. If you guys like death metal. 🖤🤘
Pop can be done by anyone, metal singers can do pop songs, pop "singers" cant even do pop, the fact that tgey have so much fans is just a sad reality we live in...
I don't know... some of these didn't sound like more than a distortion pedal added to the guitar and that's good enough. I wanted things to be more imaginative.
The singer in Oops I did it again sounds like Alex Brightman from Beetlejuice
Normandie - chandelier was great
Damn its been a year since Children of Bodom broke up and now im sad
I prefer the thr original version of bad romance since I did grow up with that song but metal gets the win again
3:14😢best moment
A guy called leo moracchioli does songs as well from covers
There is a saying: Immitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
I used to think it was metal vs everything else, but it's not, it's just differrent strokes for different folks. Some people enjoy metal others like pop, classical, jazz, latino or any other genre and that's fine.
P.s. Also R.E.M. is awesome and can't be considered Pop by any strech of the imagination.
shallow bt floor jansen?
Alex terribles cover on chandelier
Qual a diferença?
Don't forget 'The great Commandment' , 'Sound of Silence' by Atrocity
And the best cover is : Blue (turns to red) by Fleshgod Apocalypse.
I thought you would put bad romance by leander rising
If you liked Halestorm's cover of Bad Romance, check out Lord of the Lost's cover of it!
Exit Eden - Paparazzi
