Alice Cooper. Nightwish. PoisonsteemCreated with Sketch.

in #contest7 years ago

I've heard one of the recent Nightwish songs, called Poison.

Here it goes


And I was like: "Yeah, nice song, but sounds too familiar to me..."

Here goes the original song

<hr>

On your opinion, who did it better? Nightwish or Alice Cooper?

Another classic, ruined...

Yeah, I know how it feels like when some classic songs are getting ruined. But is it really ruined in this particular case?

Yeah definitely ruined, even the eye candy cant make up for it. :(

the thing is, Tarja is an opera singer, not only an eye candy, making covers.
This "Poison" song was sang by Tarja for the first time when Alice Cooper was standing next to her, during his Theatre of Death Tour in Dortmund.
Cannot find any videos though, but there's an article about that

By the way, if you know German, that might help in reading of that article. Unfortunately, I don't know german, reading in google translation =)


Speaking of my opinion, it's not like classic being ruined, it's like classic but with the different sauce just to change the taste once in a while =)

Cooper all the way. Originality speaks for it self. I wish artists could come up with their own songs. Even if it is a continuation of a song someone had produced in the past. (ie More Poison, Still Poison...)

Nirvana - The Man Who Sold The World.
David Bowie, the original song writer, admitted that Nirvana did it better and gifted them the song =)

Got me there.. Nirvana did do an incredible job. I still think more ought than not, they are not as good when someone is trying to match up to an original. For example the Foo Fighters slaughtered Pink Floyd in my opinion. I bet there are people out there that just love it though.

Then The Tool slaughtered music as we know it =))))
