When I started listening I thought "ok she made an original song with the same name as her dad's song...that's weird". Then I heard her say "someday there's a reason" and I was like "damn, this IS her dad's song". She has a great voice.
I'm a die-hard Megadeth fan and not into country. That said, what an amazing cover. Her voice is stellar! Good luck with your career and the move to Nashville.
I am not a country fan at all, but I'm a huge Megadeth fan. This is extremely well done. I love how you made it into a country/celtic ballad. Good luck!
I never thought I'd hear a country cover of a Megadeth song, but since Dave's daughter became a country singer and not the next Metal Queen, I guess that meant it was up to her...I'm hoping she covers more of her daddy's songs...this is beautiful, dammit!
Great cover of your father's song from one of my favorite Megadeth records. Youthanasia has a special place in my heart for me. You can see the struggle your dad was going through in that album. We almost lost a great musician due to his addictions and am so happy he beat them. Your dad is a strong person.
Wow, talk about a bunch of ignorant close minded comments from a group of aging metal heads from their Mommy's basement. She has great voice and is earning her stripes. Hardly riding on her father's coat tails. This was her paying homage to her father and Megadeth. Not "ripping him off". Sure she has financial backing and connections within the industry. Great! If that was at your disposal, guaranteed you would use it too. I wish her all the best with her music career.
Well said, well said. She took a totally different song and made it her own. Speaking as a 30+ years Megadeth fan I approve. Furthermore, speaking as a music fan, I also approve.
You don’t earn your stripes by doing that! Originality yes but copying no! If she wants to achieve the same success as her father she needs to establish her own original material. If you can’t do that then no mater how good she is she will not climb the ladder!
Excellent Electra! You are one lucky chica! :) You have a very, very beautiful voice. Wow! I cannot wait to hear your next endeavor. Your horse is awesome as well!
Love this cover and video Electra ! I took my sweetheart on a great date riding these horses because of this video back in 2017 and we married a year later !
She did a great job with this song. Obviously I'm partial to her dad's version but I think it's pretty cool how she turned such a bleak sounding song into something more hope inspiring.
Great song, epic cover.....and what a "feather in the hat" for Dave's songwriting, not a lot of metal songs could cross over to country this well. Well done team Mustaine.
Grew up listening to Dave ........... and now listening to Electra as I grow old............ The whole "Mustaine" things being running in my blood since the 80s...................................... Thought I knew it all !!
We love you baby girl!! We love your dad and grew up to his music and you're making him very proud I'm sure. I had the youthanasia album, among others. Keep it up, cant wait to hear more.
+Greg Skipton funny my dad actually met Mere on more than a few occasions. My dad worked at a Freightliner dealership in Indianapolis and every time Mere and his shitty tour bus came the it'd break down. Guess where it ended up and who fixed it
I would have loved the chorus to keep the same as the original melody, it's haunting and memorable. Best of luck with your career and life Electra - bless your family.
I came to this site because of her dad but I listened to it all for her alone and thoroughly enjoyed it. Well done Electra, I'm sure your dad is proud and so should all of his fans be of you for taking your own way and doing a great performance. While I am an unrepentant metal head, I can still appreciate a beautiful song of any type that is so well done as this.
Nice take on Dad's old material, Electra. Love how you turned it around into a ballad :). But when you've got such great source material, it's very difficult to fuck it up ;)
+pedro hf I could see someone doing an outlaw country cover of it (Outlaw country is usually more upbeat, a little faster, and pretty stripped down.) but not a pop oriented country (like this) version
Max Scardanelli I didn't say it the good way. She is trying to face her father rather than build her own career with her type of music. She can't do what her father did, and it's really hard to get out of the shadow of such god.
This is lovely, Electra. As a fan of both country and metal, I can truly appreciate this. Such a beautiful voice. I feel sad this hasn't been more popular, but good luck to you.
I wish my family was rich enough for us to just pull the old imax digital 3D realD cameras out of the closet, hop on a horse in the middle of a field and record a Carrie underwood sound quality cover and get 60K views and then get bored so I go to the kitchen and eat raspberries and shit like that
+David Soule Why do you feel the need to be rude?? She has been singing and playing piano since she was little. It is something she has always wanted to do. The horse is hers. Pam (her mom) has trained horses forever. Show some kudos for her being brave enough to sing knowing that all the asses in this world would speak up.
+ismail guler when he is a guitarist and not a singer, why the fuck does he sing ???? plus, I find his vocals much more listenable now, than on his classic albums where he sounded like a "whiny bitch" :D:D
been out a while and I still dig this as much as the first time hearing it. I love my metal but sometimes you got to let music take you somewhere else. great job
+Yuda Ben Most Nashville people can't write their own shit. But most start doing covers. That's how it works. I'm sure she's working on her own material. Her dad is a lyrical genius.
Actually, if somebody would make a cross-genre cover version of a song of mine, that would be 100 times more special if it would be my daughter or my son!
Wow! Fantastic take on a great song, I had no idea what to expect when I clicked on this video, but I was delighted to hear the Mandolin. Dave, if you read this, you must be proud!!! Seriously loved this version and seriously love the original! Thank you!! And MORE PLEASE!!!!
Good Job Electra! I never thought I would see the day when a Megadeth song would make my mother teary-eyed and say "That's a beautiful song". btw Happy Birthday!
Great voice Electra! Great song ! I tried to push Stingray Music Videos to put this in there tv selection- not yet 😢. Me and my wife hope you make it big in the industry and we send all our prayers to your father for a full and speedy recovery ! His music has helped me through the darkest hours of my life since '88 and I had the wonderful pleasure of meeting him and shaking his hand at a meet and great before an incredible show ! - Again, love your version of one of your dad's great songs ! 💘
Very nice! Can you do The Conjuring next. LOL
Or Killing is My Business!
...OBEY!
She wolf!!!!!

When I started listening I thought "ok she made an original song with the same name as her dad's song...that's weird". Then I heard her say "someday there's a reason" and I was like "damn, this IS her dad's song". She has a great voice.
same with me
Nick P ditto.
Nick P me also
still awesome for a father to have his daughter cover his original only a few can be that lucky
I'm a die-hard Megadeth fan and not into country. That said, what an amazing cover. Her voice is stellar! Good luck with your career and the move to Nashville.
Beautiful voice! Looking forward to the new generation taking the reins,you and Lili Cornell Silver sing like Angels!
I am not a country fan at all, but I'm a huge Megadeth fan. This is extremely well done. I love how you made it into a country/celtic ballad. Good luck!
Hey at least Electra stayed on the path of music where guitar and drums are the dominant instrument.
Amen brother! You are a blessed man! Healing over you in Jesus name!
AND in a genre with very little Autotuning...Country...good on her...she has talent dont flush it down the toilet like Ariane grande...
Dave Mustaine thats the winning formula brother!
Your daughter is very talented just like her dad.
Your comment made my day Dave. Lol
Just came here for the Megadeth related comments
me too
Lmao me three!!!
lol! me 2 !
lmao yeah
Well it's a fricking Megadeth song sang by Dave's daughter… What do you expect?
Great cover Electra! I always listen to this song, I've saved the link. Greetings from Mexico 🇲🇽
I never thought I'd hear a country cover of a Megadeth song, but since Dave's daughter became a country singer and not the next Metal Queen, I guess that meant it was up to her...I'm hoping she covers more of her daddy's songs...this is beautiful, dammit!
Mega country or Folky deth.
Really love this version... Is deeply touching, sensible. Make me stop and think or feel.
God. This song makes me happy. I was having a bad day and this song my dad showed me made my day a little better. :)
Anybody complaining has never tried to arrange music. This is a beautiful arrangement of a kick ass tune.
metal heads....please be happy that she didn't turn into some auto tuned pop star shit...
Jimmy Tylor, Exactly. Pop and rap music is shitty and way overrated. I'll stick with country and metal music thank you.
theres still time
If you mean rap music now, I can totally agree. If you mean rap music in general, I have to disagree with you there mate.
Jimmy Tylor Best Comment in here... Also she did i good job in my opion Fuck the others Lmao!
Arnav Sinha Roy Old school Rap is great
As a metal musician who can't stand country music, this is refreshing. Not generic I hope you are proud of your work and Dave is proud of you as well.
Her covering her dad's songs. 😭 I love her.
Dady Mustaine must feel proud about his baby congratulations
Great cover of your father's song from one of my favorite Megadeth records. Youthanasia has a special place in my heart for me. You can see the struggle your dad was going through in that album. We almost lost a great musician due to his addictions and am so happy he beat them. Your dad is a strong person.
damn loved this version, a Marty friedman solo would sound amazing with this version 1313
It really would
OMG ... this is true beautiful song especially Electra's voices
Hey Electra... You are an amazing singer! I love your father, but you have a new fan now!!! Beautiful voice.
To prove her talent Electra needs to be able to turn Megadeth - Head Crusher into a mellow 20 BPM country song ;) I'll get my popcorn.
YES
how about rust in peace... Polaris
mysteryman1085 Absolutely! Also 99 ways to die ;)

as a Megadeth fan to the core,I couldn't agree more
Doran Amatto i agree with you.
Doran Amatto also she could bet she could remaster trust ^.^
You don’t earn your stripes by doing that! Originality yes but copying no! If she wants to achieve the same success as her father she needs to establish her own original material. If you can’t do that then no mater how good she is she will not climb the ladder!
Just WOW.. and I'm a country singer. She's good.
One of my favorite Megadeth songs of all time! Good job Electra
Beautiful Voice,..Made the hair on my arms stand up,..Great Job !!!
I'm not a country fan but I must say this is an awesome version of this song. Well done Ms. Mustaine.
Excellent Electra! You are one lucky chica! :) You have a very, very beautiful voice. Wow! I cannot wait to hear your next endeavor. Your horse is awesome as well!
Different from the original one, but still very beautiful. You're doing great, Electra, your father must be proud :)
Love this cover and video Electra ! I took my sweetheart on a great date riding these horses because of this video back in 2017 and we married a year later !

Great voice. Your Dad should be very proud. You should be a big country music star.
Bonita voz, pero me gusta más la versión de mi suegro...
Me sacaste las palabras de la me mente 😂
+Richard Calzadilla ta engraçadão hein
uhauhauhauhauhauhauha
jajajajajaajja
k trve :v
We love you baby girl!! We love your dad and grew up to his music and you're making him very proud I'm sure.
I had the youthanasia album, among others.
Keep it up, cant wait to hear more.
already better than today's country artists
+el guapo Would you say the same if it wasn't his daughter?
JJ 86
honestly yes. she has a great voice
Agreed!
+Nellson Stout. Same here, I like Waylon, Johnny, and Merle as well!
+Greg Skipton funny my dad actually met Mere on more than a few occasions. My dad worked at a Freightliner dealership in Indianapolis and every time Mere and his shitty tour bus came the it'd break down. Guess where it ended up and who fixed it
Wow, absolutely beautiful arrangement and solid vocal delivery. Absolutely a standout in today's genre. Very classy and dreamlike
I would have loved the chorus to keep the same as the original melody, it's haunting and memorable. Best of luck with your career and life Electra - bless your family.

wow.. i never expect this... so beautiful. go electra!
This lady badly needs her own album. I am already sold too as soon as that happens. She has already won me over - I'm a fan!!
Great Job! I'm sure Dad is proud!
Awesome take on this song! She has a warmth to her voice that is not typical today. She is a great American gem...
I really like you version of the song, and it's for that reason that i would like to hear some of your own stuff! You rock Electra :D
She's gonna go a long way. Her dad must be proud.
Amazing Electra
WoW this is so beautiful! Dad should be so proud!
Well done! Do a country version of The Conjuring.. or Rattlehead.
One of my all time favorites of your fathers!!! And I personally think you did an amazing job!!!!
That was fucking awesome!! Davo must be very proud ......, very beautiful and talented woman . Megadeth to headline next big 4
Nice take on Dad's old material, Electra. Love how you turned it around into a ballad :). But when you've got such great source material, it's very difficult to fuck it up ;)
so you gonna do tornado of soul?
Hahaha certainly
+pedro hf I could see someone doing an outlaw country cover of it (Outlaw country is usually more upbeat, a little faster, and pretty stripped down.) but not a pop oriented country (like this) version
Hiếu Tô The Conjuring or Good Mourning/Black Friday
Holy wars/punishment due
Yep. I'd love it.
SO AMAZING! You surely inherited your father's talent
Wonder how Symphony of Destruction would sound like.
+The morning star God no don't!!! This was bad enough.
Max Scardanelli I didn't say it the good way. She is trying to face her father rather than build her own career with her type of music. She can't do what her father did, and it's really hard to get out of the shadow of such god.
+The morning star Fair enough man. Sorry dude.
Or those melodic little tunes like "The Conjuring" & "Good Morning...Black Friday"!!! LOL :-P
Symphony sucks without the "aguante megadeth"
She's going to be huge! Great voice & great looks.
Pretty cool! well done Electra
How I landed here has yet to be learned, as country and I will always be strangers.
Though-with a tear in my eye-great job.
Dave taught her well.
I honestly am surprised at how good her voice is. I want to hear her do original music tho.
Wow! First I ever heard her sing and she can! Good for her wish her nothing but success. Dave should be proud
Beautiful video. Sweet Voice. Nice Job Electra :)
Wow she's actually a great singer. Good for her. Dad must be so proud!!
still heavier than "risk"
Hahaha
Hey, Risk is a badass album.
Great album.
Beautiful voice and such talent.Excellent job!!!

You out it back up. Thank you this was such a beautiful version of your father's song and I've wanted to hear again for years now

Very touching arrangement. Lovely and moving.
Next megadeth vocalist
This.
Yeah!
DAVE MUSTAINE'S WORK OF ART. SHE'S GORGEOUS
Great video, great song, but original ia still better. Sorry)
This is lovely, Electra. As a fan of both country and metal, I can truly appreciate this. Such a beautiful voice. I feel sad this hasn't been more popular, but good luck to you.
Beautiful! Hope to see more of your versions of MEGAdaddy's songs.
I love you Electra!! ❤❤ your music always makes me happy!
Taylor Swift is sweating now!
And I highly doubt her fans could handle the metal community if she were to bad mouth mustaine lol
Love her voice! This version is really beautiful!

I genuinely laughed out loud at this.
+Kathryn Rowley see, he gets it. Kudos sir
+David Soule lolol
I have tears welling up my eyes. Dave you're blessed man.
Get well soon bro🤘
better vocals than her father :D:D:D
Balls sucker!
+itkojecockot Yes but his father's voice is almost gone and he's actually not a singer a guitarist,
+ismail guler when he is a guitarist and not a singer, why the fuck does he sing ???? plus, I find his vocals much more listenable now, than on his classic albums where he sounded like a "whiny bitch" :D:D
itkojecockot because Dave's ego i know İt's annoying.
itkojecockot Whiney voice is mcr megadeth old albums were him doing a higher voice
Absolutely gorgeous...original take on the classic song. Your voice is incredible! Talent obviously runs in the family! Great stuff!
No se nota la edición en su voz :v
+Diego Ketzer :v x2
been out a while and I still dig this as much as the first time hearing it. I love my metal but sometimes you got to let music take you somewhere else. great job
99% of the viewers here are megadeth fans. I wish nick menza' son bangs her for pleasure.
painkiller619 undertaker Lol wtf? Would it be in time with holy wars?
Very well done Electra. Beautiful vocals!
Why cover dadys material ? and not write your own?
why not cover her dad's song ?
+Liberty Bisounours because that would be cheap and pathetic in the long run
+Yuda Ben That's the second cover she does xD
+Yuda Ben
Most Nashville people can't write their own shit. But most start doing covers. That's how it works. I'm sure she's working on her own material. Her dad is a lyrical genius.

Nice to see her getting into music. Dave must be pretty proud. She has a great voice and is a decent songwriter too.
Just no! It sounds like a random pop crap music of these pop singer nowadays.
The chorus of the song is perfectly done. Good job future star.
what da hell is this
I thought I knew it all , ( or at least enough ) but we never really do ...
Beautiful voice and a really cool song. Instantly saved to my favorites.
Wow! Fantastic take on a great song, I had no idea what to expect when I clicked on this video, but I was delighted to hear the Mandolin. Dave, if you read this, you must be proud!!! Seriously loved this version and seriously love the original! Thank you!! And MORE PLEASE!!!!
She has a AMAZING VOICE! She has TALENT!!
Growing up this song ment alot to me
Good Job Electra! I never thought I would see the day when a Megadeth song would make my mother teary-eyed and say "That's a beautiful song". btw Happy Birthday!
She's an amazing talent, better than any of today's more popular artists. If she had some original material, I think she'll go far.
Great voice Electra! Great song ! I tried to push Stingray Music Videos to put this in there tv selection- not yet 😢.

Great! I'm so glad Electra, did something totally different. It sounds like a different song. I really enjoyed this version.
