toymaker Posted October 21, 2014 Author Share Posted October 21, 2014 (edited) Yeah . . . I'm still wondering . . . any good ones? (I actually kind of like that Subdivisions with the Shatner.) That Xanadu cover created shudders. The Hemispheres . . . I gotta hand it to those guys: pretty nice job. The singer can hit the notes, he's just struggling with the articulation (some of those lines are not easy no matter what your first language is!)

rugen Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Mike Portnoy and Paul Gilbert doing 2112, can't stand the voice, but it's faithful to the original Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JARG Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 Mike Portnoy and Paul Gilbert doing 2112, can't stand the voice, but it's faithful to the original Based on your comment about the voice I was ready to cringe, but holy f**k, that guy has amazing pipes. He not only hit the notes (which Geddy can't hit any more), but he's the whole raspy thing going on and his enunciation is excellent. Dear Rush: hire this guy for your live shows! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JARG Posted October 22, 2014 Share Posted October 22, 2014 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2ZghL3kAMc Did he really sing "quiet in conscious"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empty Mindless Spectre Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Nope. I got nothing. :D Since KennyLee is too modest, here you go. Keep in mind that as good as these two videos sound, they sound MUCH. MUCH better in person. And BTW, these guys are playing tonight at JB McGinnes in New Castle, DE. Be there or be square! http://youtu.be/ixa_8l0wajwhttp://youtu.be/EVhMDrMvG5o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WorkingAllTheTime Posted November 1, 2014 Share Posted November 1, 2014 Thanks to all those that posted. Some of these I had heard, others not. Regardless, I find any cover of Rush work interesting. A cover from any band on a label, live or studio, is an interesting artistic nod to our favorite band that, for decades, was shunned and, to quote Billy Corgan in the documentary, "marginalized." Still, there's a lot of room to play with in a cover. These examples seem to cover the entire spectrum. On one end, the Anthrax' cover of "Anthem" is very cleanly done and, in many ways, very similar to the original (particularly given Joey Belladonna's range). On the other end, the Silver Sun cover of "Xanadu" is certainly intended to be that unique band's spin on the work. Each has their merits. Each has their... "meh..."
