If the Devil met Shawn at a crossroad, he would pat down every pocket of his 3 piece suit and tell Shawn "sorry, man, I don't have enough on me to offer for such a golden soul.
Sage Cornelius killed that! I’m a big fan of Shawn and all but I’ve been lookin forward to see this guy with him and as a classically trained cellist here it’s awesome to see him go off like that and so well too. Damn
I found this cover while I was recovering from severe PTSD... My ex tried to assault me, and i was having nightmares for months. A huge part of the nightmares was the look he gave me... I genuinely cry everytime I hear this cover, and its helped me find a path to healing. This has soul to it the original never held a candle too. Thank you Mr. James.
I left alone, my mind was blank. I needed time to think, to get the memories from my mind. What did I see ? Can I believe that what I saw that night was real and not just fantasy. Just what I saw in my old dreams Were they reflections of my warped mind staring back at me? 'Cause in my dreams it's always there The evil face that twists my mind and brings me to despair six six six the number of the beast Hell and fire was spawned to be released Torches blazed and sacred chants were praised As they start to cry hands held to the sky In the night the fires are burning bright The ritual has begun, Satan's work is done six six six the number of the beast Hell and fire was spawned to be released six six six the number of the beast Sacrifice is going on tonight I'm coming back I will return And I'll possess your body and I'll make you burn I have the fire I have the force I have the power to make my evil take its course six six six the number of the beast Hell and fire was spawned to be released six six six the number of the beast Sacrifice is going on tonight I'm coming back I will return And I'll possess your body and I'll make you burn I have the fire I have the force I have the power to make my evil take its course six six six the number of the beast Hell and fire was spawned to be released six six six the number of the beast Sacrifice is going on tonight
This version is by far the best version. Mr James brings a whole new level of badassery to this epic track that I can't put into words. However, I feel this deep in my soul. The original lacks that ability.
Saw Shawn in New Orleans and he sounds like this in person which is insane. Not sure if you've ever thought about Iron Maiden's - "Hallowed Be Thy Name". Maybe there's too much break between lines, but hearing the story of that song through Shawn's voice would be fucking epic.
Im impressed ive seen maiden 16 times been a fan. For 35 years and i must say this is my fac cover of a maiden song yes u took it made it your own and gave it your perspective and its awesome way to go my hats off to you ill be turning some people on to this peace and UP THE IRONS. From a new shawn james fan Dave in Seattle
An absolutely amazing performance by Shawn James and Sage Haskelchi'i Cornelius!!! The arrangement of this cover is so chilling and very moving ... they do this so effortlessly. It's so powerful and beautiful to listen to and watch! If you haven’t seen them live yet make sure you go to their next show!!!
@@rockynone4515 oh I have heard the gaslight sessions versions many many times and I like that version but I don’t think that it is better than this version 🤷🏾♀️ I’ve also met Shawn and Sage in person and seen them perform this song live many times; basically every time they come to Boston or Cambridge and I’ve posted videos of them performing this song on my RUclips channel!
@AMARLEY GARRISON-QUAYE that's awesome thanks being kind, mind if I check your channel ? I love music especially live performances such as unplugged 90's stuff hope you have a great day 🎸🤘🍻
Man , Such a voice you have ,I'm always impressed with the way you change the tones of your voice and make the lyrics of the song gets through our bodies to our souls 👏🏼
I actually found you by finding this song years ago. I was specifically looking for Iron Maiden covers. Great cover, and as always love all your other work. Can't wait to hear you and Sage tear it up tomorrow at V Club. 🤘🏻
AS A PERSON THAT GREW UP ON THE ORIGINAL ... I HAVE TO SAY ... WHAT!!!! (IN A GOOD WAY ...) LOVE THIS STRIPPED DOWN VERSION AND THE VIOLIN (FIDDLE) MAKES THE SONG COMPLETE. WELL DONE, MR. JAMES.
What a great interpretation of this song. Like you said, when you present it differently to how people are used to hearing it, they truly take on a whole different viewpoint so to speak. Kudos!
I feel like with Shawns music, when he sings someone elses songs, I get that "relate to it differently, because I presented it differently", the same with Who Did That To You.
So different. Love your voice - you could sing anything and fill it with gravitas. Props to Sage Cornelius too - the additional instrumentation adds a whole other level of depth to the cover.
E tanta garantia de que esse cara canta bem,que eu ja dou like antes mesmo de ouvir,e difícil descrever oque eu sinto a ouvir isso,a voz dele e imponente,a melodia linda,simplesmente perfeito.
At last !!!! New coverage of one of my favorite covers you do ! Singing along with your music has molded my own performing voice in ways I can't fathomably know where to begin to thank you for.
Sir that was hauntingly beautiful, and I being a massive Maiden fan think Eddy himself would be proud to stand above you whilst this cover was sang. Best cover iv heard of this.
Sinceramente el mejor cover que he visto de esta cancion estas muy por encima de las espectativas haces un gran trabajo con cada una de las obras que interpretas te felicito.
@shawnjames ... just found your channel a few hours ago ... i love your voice bro ... it's amazing ... listening to your songs over and over ... and love them all ... the cover of ain't no sun shine was amaziiiiing ... keep it up ... love and respect from IRAN
Please apply your talent to covering 13 by Danzig and Hurt by NIN. Every cover I see you do takes on a whole new dimension. Each takes the original as a foundation and builds something new and profound. I applaud your efforts and truly appreciate what you're doing. Thank you.
Mr James, you are so awesome and so underrated. Thank you for the music. I first heard of you some years ago when the first trailer of The Last of Us part 2 dropped and I heard Through the valley. Since then I listened all your songs. You rock dude. Keep it up and I hope to hear more music from you and who knows, maybe more of your songs will be used in The last of us franchise or in other movies/videogames. Have a great day !
If the Devil met Shawn at a crossroad, he would pat down every pocket of his 3 piece suit and tell Shawn "sorry, man, I don't have enough on me to offer for such a golden soul.
Wow, just wow. I'm a big Maiden fan, but this is amazing. The fiddle is haunting, his voice is demonic and sad. Makes it feel real. Brilliant.
Somebody should make sure Bruce hears this❣️
Absolutely phenomenal description for this master piece of a remix Shawn Murdered this it’s rare for any remake to match its original
Demoníaca .......acho que não angelical sim triste NUNCA. DESCULPA.
Don't know how many times I've listened to this..... still gives me goosebumps
When you started growl singing as satan I got chills. This is one of the best covers I've ever heard.
When your a metalhead but also listen to Shawn James
Fuckin for real right!?! Dudes voice is metal as fuck though haha
Same same same!!!!
100 metal heads liked this comment
Just a true lover of music
And what is wrong with that ? 🤣🤣❤️🤘 Any dark blues is more heavier than any metal in my opinion 😎 ..it has more soul with in self !!
Shawn and Sage are amazing together. Gives me chills man
Sage Cornelius killed that! I’m a big fan of Shawn and all but I’ve been lookin forward to see this guy with him and as a classically trained cellist here it’s awesome to see him go off like that and so well too. Damn
Diego C.L I was thinking the instrumentals could be dragged out more here and emphasized more. It would be epic.

What did I see ?
Can I believe that what I saw that night was real and not just fantasy.
Just what I saw in my old dreams
Were they reflections of my warped mind staring back at me?
'Cause in my dreams it's always there
The evil face that twists my mind and brings me to despair
six six six the number of the beast
Hell and fire was spawned to be released
Torches blazed and sacred chants were praised
As they start to cry hands held to the sky
In the night the fires are burning bright
The ritual has begun, Satan's work is done
six six six the number of the beast
Hell and fire was spawned to be released
six six six the number of the beast
Sacrifice is going on tonight
I'm coming back
I will return
And I'll possess your body and I'll make you burn
I have the fire
I have the force
I have the power to make my evil take its course
six six six the number of the beast
Hell and fire was spawned to be released
six six six the number of the beast
Sacrifice is going on tonight
I'm coming back
I will return
And I'll possess your body and I'll make you burn
I have the fire
I have the force
I have the power to make my evil take its course
six six six the number of the beast
Hell and fire was spawned to be released
six six six the number of the beast
Sacrifice is going on tonight
We heard the song..
Lol
Dumb fuck.
Wow. Lifetime Maiden fan, never expected this. By far my favorite cover ever, what a killer arrangement!!
Hear the same cover but him and the shapeshifters (shawn James and the shapeshifters is the bands name) its waaaaaayyyy more better
Always a good day whenever I receive a Shawn James upload notification!
You are just so phucken humble bro.
So much respect for you
Caraca, fico feliz de ver tanto comentário brasileiro curtindo musica boa kk
This version is by far the best version. Mr James brings a whole new level of badassery to this epic track that I can't put into words. However, I feel this deep in my soul. The original lacks that ability.
Found you a couple week ago , playing your songs on repeat since. Love you voice mate
theYRtv found him right after my life fell to shit, much love from a fellow new fan
Love this! All of it. Violin player is such a joy to hear.
Saw Shawn in New Orleans and he sounds like this in person which is insane.
Not sure if you've ever thought about Iron Maiden's - "Hallowed Be Thy Name". Maybe there's too much break between lines, but hearing the story of that song through Shawn's voice would be fucking epic.
This performance of Number Of The Beast is so 🔥🔥🔥 I love me some Shawn James and Sage 🎻 Cornelius!! 🖤🖤🖤
can never get tired listening to shawn james
I can appreciate that someone put the dice as "666" face up on the table at the beginning.
Adoro esse estilo de Musica, Vem para o Brasil !!!
Esse cara tem q vim no Brasil
concordooo
vamo sequestrar ele e trazer ele pra cá

canlı dinlenirse ağlanacak kadar iyi bir adam mükemmelsin Shawn James iyi ki bu dünyada seni dinleme şerefine sahip oldum
ohhh be bir Türk daha buldum burada. Shawn James'in "War" coverını da dinle mutlaka

Amarley Quaye exactly I love listening to these two ..
Agreed I could listen and watch on repeat 😆🤘🖤🍻
Check out the gaslight sessions version is so much better imo 🖤🤘

One more beautiful cover from the man the legend SHAAAWWWN JAAAMES 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
I’m literally in love with his voice. I listen and sing along for hours at a time
How cover songs should be done. I love this
One of the best voices around.Hope to see you someday in Thessaloniki Greece.
É muita técnica e qualidade para apenas duas pessoas! Isso é a arte no seu limite!
Goosebumps
Man , Such a voice you have ,I'm always impressed with the way you change the tones of your voice and make the lyrics of the song gets through our bodies to our souls 👏🏼
Just finished work on a Friday making my way back home to a party and listening to this on the way! Just perfect!
Dude you are amazing your voice is impeccable and so strong emotionally, keep it up! Got a fan in me forever!
+1 💯 💯💯💯💯💯
Man - YOU, Shawn James, are the beast here! Awesome and powerful as usual.
Simply amazing brother........ Cheers
I been learning this on the uke. I love it❣️ AND I'm a Maiden fan❣️
2022 starting off with a banger...... Maiden is my all time favorite band and I never heard anything like this before.
I actually found you by finding this song years ago. I was specifically looking for Iron Maiden covers. Great cover, and as always love all your other work. Can't wait to hear you and Sage tear it up tomorrow at V Club. 🤘🏻
I know this is a little late, but I'm extremely happy I'm not the only one to find him through Iron Maiden covers. It's good to know I'm not alone :p
Great cover
Absolutely amazing. He kild that shit. Slowed down and acoustic has so much more depth
That is seriously amazing. You have a gift
Fucking insane... I play this song to my neighbours LOUDLY every damn day!! I love tha shit out of it. You guys are utterly mesmerising!!
Same Sage and Shawn shredded this live it's badass shout out to Maiden 🤘🖤🍻🎻🎸 nice prp Kristy Lowe 😜
Seen this guy live ....epic .
That was an unreal cover. I’m diggin the slower tempo for sure.
AS A PERSON THAT GREW UP ON THE ORIGINAL ... I HAVE TO SAY ... WHAT!!!! (IN A GOOD WAY ...) LOVE THIS STRIPPED DOWN VERSION AND THE VIOLIN (FIDDLE) MAKES THE SONG COMPLETE. WELL DONE, MR. JAMES.
I think this is the best version I've heard, love it!!
You are awesome, great job
Man this is absolutely awesome!! powerful, musical, just jawdropping! well done! Great fiddle too :-)
So amazing. Shawn James is the best in this genre. By far my favorite solo artist.
this is amazing. Much darker and "heavier" than the original somehow. Wow.
Absolutely outstanding!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What a great interpretation of this song. Like you said, when you present it differently to how people are used to hearing it, they truly take on a whole different viewpoint so to speak. Kudos!
Cara que bom , eu conheci esses dois GRANDES ARTISTAS ,SÃO TALENTOSOS. QUE HONRA.
You both are very talented
Love the song. love the cover. even the violin would work as a music piece on its own
I feel like with Shawns music, when he sings someone elses songs, I get that "relate to it differently, because I presented it differently", the same with Who Did That To You.
I need more singers like Shawn James help
I really wanna hear more metal covers, maybe some Metallica? Unforgiven?? Black sabbath? Motörhead?
Yes please!
Then form an acoustic metal band.
I hope he does some Motörhead some day!
Definitely would like to see him cover some Sabbath & Metallica!!!
Id like to hear Mastermind from him! It will be amazing im sure!
Awesome singing!
And awsome how she playing on the violin like a a mandolin! 👍
man i love your musics i just love them all...
Dude you killed this in this version! Loved the first version but the violin adds a whole nother level! Sweet dude!
I love all your live versions. Can't wait for the new album
🙌🙌🙌speechless! Shawn you are an incredible talent!
The passion you have and let out is amazing and beautiful and why you’re one of my favorite artist.
Come to Brazil man!! Please
Damn this is so powerful
Amazing!!!!
Please try and get this on your apple music profile, love ittttt! Also, your voice sounds so good with the strings 😄
First heard this cover at his Streets of London Pub show (Denver) a few months ago. Incredibly emotive, a fantastic take on the original.
Awesome sounds beautiful
Love your style, you are amazing
So different. Love your voice - you could sing anything and fill it with gravitas. Props to Sage Cornelius too - the additional instrumentation adds a whole other level of depth to the cover.
Keep on grinding man!! Did you ever think that you'll be heard all over the world? Love from Greece...
E tanta garantia de que esse cara canta bem,que eu ja dou like antes mesmo de ouvir,e difícil descrever oque eu sinto a ouvir isso,a voz dele e imponente,a melodia linda,simplesmente perfeito.
Flawless. Sir you are amazing
