this song is single handedly responsible for me diving deeper into metal as a kid. love it.
Queen in every way
Meatrider
If you want to hear early metal, listen to Queen's Ogre Battle. It was from the Queen 2 album, so about a year before Stone Cold Crazy!!
Astrophysicist is Dr Brian May and has worked on some of NASA's jobs
He’s also a Knight
Brian’s guitar, the Red Special, has its own Wikipedia page.
Ok so nobody can beat Queen their head and shoulders above everyone. I mean Freddie’s vocals are faster and crisper and the tempo of Queen’s version was tighter. But look how great of Metallica to sing this in tribute to Queen who they say influenced them!
I and my sister have every Queen album, all the way from their ”Smile” days.
How cool. Thanks for your support here
More Metallica! More Queen! Yeah!!!!
Exactly!
There is also a live version from Freddie Mercury Tribute concert 1992 where James Hetfield sings Stone Cold Crazy with Queen ...also there is a footage from rehearsal!
Ooh sounds interesting
Yes more Queen!❤
While I do enjoy the Metallica cover of “Stone Cold Crazy” (and love that they *are* Queen fans), I still enjoy Queen’s original far more.
But I’ve loved Queen since this very Sheer Heart Attack album (1974) - I was 8 years old lol
Of course… Queen was the GOAT 👑♥️
definitely can't deny the original. Metallica was the first version I heard and I ran out and bought the CD 😁so by happenstance Metallica is my favorite...but Queen was a GAMECHANGER with this track!
For me I have never been a metalica fan one of the few out there who aren't. For me the difference between the two versions was clarity. the vocals for Freddy Mercury were clean and precise aan instrament in its own rank. The same with the guitar playing. Brian May's guitar playing was to me more pure cleaner than Metallica. Enjoyed both but for me Queen would be my choice no questions asked with more of a pure sound.
Thanks for the extra video! may even have to give Metallica another try
Difference is that was Metallica way out of their prime
@@kylehoulihan3875 ,
Metallica have been covering this song since 1990…
@@IlianNachevand that’s completely irrelevant to my comment. This live performance is not in the early 90s is it?
@@kylehoulihan3875,
I wasn’t sure you knew that they had other performances of this song and just wanted to point you to it in case you were interested. I am sorry if I have disturbed your day! Cheers!
What a fantastic reaction! I am a huge Queen and Metallica fan, but only had distant memories of this song from Queen album Sheer Heart Attack. What a great song and thanks Thamesmen for making it front and centre - thoroughly enjoyed the show!
Queen did everything first… the music and MJ’s glove 😂✌🏼
Ooh well spotted. 😀
Your scoring is always fun. Fair, consistant, incurruptible.
A well oiled and realistic system
"Strawberry Fields Forever". Year: 1972. 12 years old, needing money for work. Posted notecards on a grocery-store's corkboard for labor at 25 cents an hour. HIRED! To pick strawberries, lol! Hard experience, but worth it. lol! *Never* again!!!!
Exactly! Do it once. Get it out of your system!
Definitely more Queen! Did you get that clip from the original Queen video? The audio was better quality when I listened to it. Still, love that song. I prefer the Queen version but both are great. Just can't beat Freddie Mercury. Thanks for the reaction!
Lol, at least I managed to avoid bending over all day and picked cherries and grapes. Not that they didn't have their problems, like chilblains from twisting frosted stems and trying not to fall off a ladder after coming face to face with a giant bird eating spider, when picking cherries. Or trying not to cut yourself instead of the stem of a bunch of grapes. The vines I worked on were old and dense, so was hard to see where you were putting your hands.
Metallica were great, but Queen was greater 😁💖
Iron Maiden is a heavy metal band from the UK. it's quite impressive how such a small island country produced so many talents in music. musically speaking, Britain invaded America.
Watch the recent documentary and you can see how Little Richard from USA influenced early English music including the Beatles and the stones
Roger Taylor has an amazing voice and his drum skills are second to none. Try 'I'm in love with my car' live.
No question on his talents
OMG, I spent a very short time picking strawberries when I was 15. I lasted exactly one day. Chris the Curator might even know roughly where the farm was; it was on the main road between Trafalgar and Thorpdale in Victoria. I didn't learn my lesson from that, shortly after I got a job bagging carrots on a farm near Warragul. That lasted just one day as well. I quickly learned that fruit and vegetable picking was not my calling in life.
I have never seen a video for this song before. Queen's Stone Cold Crazy drums are super current. Check out Anthony Barone if you are interested, he has a bit of stuff on RUclips (Alex and George, you have seen Barone before, George, in particular, liked him); Barone is a beast, and Roger Taylor could be mistaken for him in this track. Freddie's vocals did it for me though, he was spittin' (melodic) bars before any of us knew there were bars to be spat.
Metallica version: Guitars were much better (could be a recording thing, and the age of the Queen video), but I felt Metallica were cleaner on guitars. Drums? I will have to go back for a second listen; on first take, they didn't stand out as much for me as Taylor did. That could be because the Metallica guitars were higher in the mix ... but school is still out on drums, leaning towards Taylor.
Vocals: I have to give it to Freddie. First, he's dead, so you have to be kind. However, I like lyrics and vocals. Both are great singers, but I love Freddie's diction in this one. It means so much more when you can hear what they sing.
I'm going to fall toward Queen on this one, both are quality versions though.
I was in Traralgon today, is that close enough?
I've always thought to own a cover you have to surpass the original, and this is still definitively a Queen song, but I agree, great stuff from Metallica. They also played it at the Freddie Mercury Tribute Concert, some er...30 years ago, so they should be good at it by now!.
@@christhecurator The first house I ever owned was in High Street, Traralgon, so yeah, close enough haha.
have you not ever saw the original Queen live before? I reckon for you guys at least saw the 80's, no?! Queen music was a head of its time!
And thus was born speed metal...
Metallica version good ..
Queen version, out of this world
Roger Taylor is the drummer and has a better voice than 80% of so called lead singers and yes , check out My Fairy King to hear his vocal range
You need to listen to the studio version of Queens Stone Cold Crazy. It’s musical perfection.
Hetfiled sang this at the freddy mercury tribute gig with queen... Should defo check that out 👌🏻
OMG!!!! How? How could you do that?! The pure, honest scoring of the Thamesmen turns out to be . . . a farce?!! I am going to have to reconsider things . . . Lol, regarding the performances, the clip of Queen from back in 1974 seemed to have a more raw sort of energy to it. Metallica's cover was very good, though.
Shhhhh
I had no idea Queen did a song like that. That is ridiculous and very good. I don't disagree with the scores at all. Metallica version was spot on.
Queen had some wild bangers.
Metallica loved Queen and admitted copying them ✌🏼
COOL intro! I thought I was about to see the Benny Hill show!!!😁Orange Marmalade is SO underrated...I'll take it any time on toast in cooking; stir fry, pork chops...it's limitless😁
the piano would have gone for much more if they weren't so hard to transport... Eddie Van Halen's Hot for Teacher guitar sold for $3.9M...much easier to move😝
Ha. A person after our own heart!
Song: Short Note. Band: Matt Finish. ❣️
Yeah. More Metallica. :)
Weirdly, I prefer the Queen version because of Roger Taylor. His high harmonies make that song. Both versions are kicking though.
Well Queen did it first … they were copied a lot
What is really nice is tomato jam.... awesome
Is that not ketchup!
This song is better The Hammersmith Oden 1974
Metallica. Norwegian for no low frequencies allowed.
I'ld like to give this one to Queen! And if you listen to this Queen song in the "Trent Reznor remix", it's much harder than the original and much harder than the Metallica studio version!
And epic: Queen did "metal" before "metal" was invented! XD But: Metallica were and are huge Queen fans! *nice
Your souls will sing in unison!
This month Diana Ankudinova released an amazing , very beautiful new song - The Day You...
New vocal level!
James H joining the band during the Freddie tribute gig is worth checking out - ruclips.net/video/uRf3KhJZRzU/видео.html (there may be a better version)
Kirk Hammett!!!
great! Would you react to Queen's "'Gimme the Prize" later :)
Maybe!
Wow.... How can you talk about Roger Taylor like that calling him a Smurf..... He's probably taller than either of you.... Unbelievable
We are unbelievably tall😀
I like how James says tommy gun lol
Real gutteral
He is too cool for school
Queen and Metallica... What more can you ask for? And Metallica is overrated??? How? They single handedly kept the genre alive in the late 90's and early 00's. You may not like Lars or his drumming all that much, but his effect on the whole metal genre cannot be understated. He has kept Metallica afloat as he has been responsible for all their contracts and business dealings and they didn't get screwed at any point... And now they have their own music label which is, of course releasing their music and supporting numerous other bands. The snot nosed kids of Metallica love music and entertaining the crowds and are still honestly surprised someone wants to come to their gigs as they play outsider music... Metal music is outsider music.
And Queen kicked off the entire Thrash metal genre with this song. Needless to say the world owes Queen and huge debt of gratitude. And if you look at Queens portfolio of songs it is just incredible. One hit after another. It is just pure wow. And some of these songs are 50 years old now and they still sound very good and relevant. It is impossible what they were able to do back then.
You make good points! Let’s face it both masters of what they do
When did you last have blackcurrant jam? Not yankie fruit yer blackcurrant.
Good point. A man can dream though
I love Queen, but this song fits better with Metallica.
