this is my ALL TIME favorite peter gabriel song and I absolutely adore this cover. so cool to hear that amazing synth riff reimagined as a guitar riff - it works amazingly well. what a stroke of genius!
I remember seeing Coal chamber at Ozzfest 97 brings me back memories, love Coal chamber love this remake and love you Rayna Foss, awesome bass playing.
When I was a kid I hated it because my brother and sister overplayed the hell out of it but its a catchy song and featuring ozzy makes it an awesome cover
I used to be terrified of seeing Ozzy as a child., whenever I was home alone watching TV and a vid like this pops up...as much as it excited me I was exposed to heavy metal, I literally feared he would appear out of the shadows in a dark corner I was 100% positive he was in the house and that I could sense his presence lmao
I DON´T know what the great Peter Gabriel could say about this cover, but, if I was him, i´d be JUST TOO DAMN PROUD OF IT ...thanks for posting it, man !!!!
Honestly, I don't understand why many critics and people considered this cover as bad. Is it because it is a nu metal band like Coal Chamber doing it? I don't get it. It's annoying that some people tend to mock and disown everything that musicians in this genre have done, they think that makes them cool, but in fact they are just being pretentious arrogant people who can't think for themselves. In my opinion, this is a great cover of Peter Gabriel's song, which stays true to the strangeness of the original song, but also gives the song a fresh face. Ozzy was a perfect choice to assist the song, because he was a big fan of Peter Gabriel as well.
I actually had the privilege of being in the studio as Ozzy was tracking his vocal for this song. I was MTV Exec at the time, and Sharon had been meeting with me to pitch a show called, "Dinner With Ozzy". Soon after, I left the network, and the show became....you guessed it, The Osbourne's! It was a great hang! I remember the producer trying to give Ozzy some direction on the main line...and Ozzy saying...(in Ozzy voice...) "That's Not The Way Ozzy Would Sing It". LOL. Classic!
Legend Group Records I remember watching The Osbourne’s all the time. I bet you have lots of interesting stories to tell when you worked for MTV. I do have good memories of MTV in the mid 90’s, when I was teenager. Wow that was so long ago.
@@defact2882 Completely agree!! Metal fans can be quite closed minded at times. The Black Metal and trad metal scenes in particular are rife with gatekeepers. It's the musicians who tend to be more open minded.
You cannot possibly dislike this track. Not only because Coal Chamber are badass, but it has one of the most famous people in metal, Ozzy Osbourne, in this.
I remember this being the ONLY redeeming tune on Chamber Music. I loved the first Coal Chamber cd. Now that I have come back to this video I'm truly shocked, this sucks incredibly. I must have been grasping at straws to like something in it. The next cd was good.
Badass cover. I had gotten the CD when it first came out. Wanting to see the lyrics. Disappointed they weren't there. Only that song though. Then I found out why. Later heard some other Peter Gabriel tracks. Eventually bought the 'So' album. Top notch music right there.
@@TheFLOMAN76 Peter Gabrieks voice would not have blended as well with the bone crunching vibe of this cover. That is why Ozzy Osbournes voice fits so well in this cover.
I still remember the day my friends, knowing I was an OZZY fan, brought me to the house to watch this video. They were so eager for my reaction. I love that memory.
@@keyboardking777 i see what u did but jokes aside they never criticize they never say what's wrong with the song they just hate and say "ThIS SoNg SuCkS"
I never understood the meaning of this song but I love the original & I used to be obsessed with coal chamber in highschool & with ozzy so I fkn love this song!
It's a really, really bad cover. Both Dez AND Ozzy are entirely off timing, off key, and drop notes at the detriment of the song. The instrumentation is muddy and really only hits the main riff. If they were speaking in a different language, you would NEVER realize it was a cover of Shock the Monkey. Ozzy's involvement is the only reason this has any perceived positivity whatsoever - if someone fairly obscure produced this, people would be completely shitting on it.
That totally rocks, best , I don't know, collaboration between them, two seriously hard core bands is only how I can describe it. And the result is freaking awesome.
Man this was the amazing time for music, besides the 80s, I love the whole imagery and NiN , Manson, orgy, energy with the bands look and the way everyone playing their instruments and the small gestures and tilt the head to the side look. Awesome stuff.
I have always loved this song and video since I was a kid. When I was like 14 I was TRANSFIXED by this. It was like a peek into a whole alien dimension, from my small English village. Spellbinding.
Ozzy should have just covered the song on his own. Sharon Osborne once threw Coal Chamber's manager down the stairs....just wanted to share for no reason.
I didn't know it was a Peter Gabriel cover back then and it makes so much sense, I can totally hear it now. Now this song makes so much more sense... Or "more sense", let's go with "more sense".
great cover! when you watch Peter Gabriel's video, you can't help but think "how in the world did they decide to cover that song and how did they do it so bad ass?" lol
+osama obama They probably covered it because Gabriel is one of the most original and inventive artists in Rock music and composed countless pieces considered masterpieces.
It's seriously hard to believe that Dez's Father and Uncle were In Leave It To Beaver. I'm 33 I love and grew up with Coal Chamber also Devil Driver. Brings me back
I find it fascinating to find a lot of metal fans love Peter Gabriel. I mean NIN did a cover of one of his songs and so did Primus. Peter Is a freaking legend who can bring lots of genres together.
a lot of people talking shit about this remix is obviously around their teenage years. a remix is not supposed to sound like the original. and all you kids talking about peter Gabriel's version probably didn't even know about type o until he died. what was fucking awesome is at ozzfest back in 02 when coal chamber and Ozzy played this with type o. I just find it funny how people come to a certain song just to complain about it. do you not have a life or anything better to do with yourself? just listen to what Pete thought was a great remix.
+IFIXUR360 Being teenagers doesn't excuse the poor mixing and generally substandard production. This isn't just the bands fault, this is a concerted effort from all parties to fuck up a piece of music.
+Jack Hanson doesn't sound too poorly produced to me. played my CD and it sounds like it was produced fine. all tracks to each instrument are clear and not overlapping. everything is pretty much in harmony throuought the entire album. considering when this album dropped road runner records had some of the best music producers and sound engineers in the business.
+IFIXUR360 vocal mixing is poor, no attempt is made to make the two singers voices occupy separate spaces, they're just slammed together. Ozzys superior vocal skill is made forgettable by poor mixing. The guitar tone is awful, if they wanted sludge they should have used keyboards with synth packages, they've lost the dynamic range and created a heavily compressed, flat, lifeless tone for the guitars. And yes, you are correct, however: excellent sound engineers can't disguise awful production decisions. I understand that this band want to be edgy and dread inducing, this is not the way to achieve it. It is a shame that this is as forgettable as it is, they had a nice little riff going and some interesting ideas buried under rubbish.

When Ozzy sings, I have no problem understanding him.
When he talks, all that goes out the window.
That's a textbook example of how speaking and singing aren't controlled by the same part of the brain.
I understand him completely.
That's your fault. Just like e.f. huttin. When he sings,.. everyone listens
Aaahahahah!!! Doesn't even sound the same person. 😉 I do admire greatly his work in the metal industry!
Even though post malone made him famous! Hahahaha fucking kids these days!! My kid knows who all the greats including the greatest Ozzy is!!
I love Dez's clean vocals in this song.
Peter Gabriel: "Cover me..."
Coal Chamber: "Okay!"
I literally laughed out loud
That’s some good wordplay
🤣🤣🤣
Only thing is...it's not as good as the original!!
@@finsfan1376 coal Chambers cover is 100x better than the original
this is my ALL TIME favorite peter gabriel song and I absolutely adore this cover. so cool to hear that amazing synth riff reimagined as a guitar riff - it works amazingly well. what a stroke of genius!
Me too!
Ozzy's vocals make this one of the best covers ever. I love when covers sound like the original but different enough to stand out.
😂😂😂
if this is one of the best covers ever, then people should stop covering instantly. this is audio torture
Lol have you listened to many covers?
When the right band covers the right song, it can be magic. This is not it.
That right!
Dez and ozzy's voices work so well together
Dez is cheesy and campy.
@@RokosbasilDidn’t know your rear could talk.
20 years ago I watch this music video because of Coal Chamber and 20 years later I continue to watch this video because I love Coal Chamber.
We rock!
Really like the lead singers voice, his range, how he can go from growl to actual good singing...
I remember being in my early 20s when this came out. What a time to be alive!!!
peace ✌️ fellow oldie 😉
Ditto, it was on my regular playlist
Same!
I remember seeing Coal chamber at Ozzfest 97 brings me back memories, love Coal chamber love this remake and love you Rayna Foss, awesome bass playing.
The perfect combination, A legend like Ozzy and on of the best bands Coal Chamber. Dream Duo
This is undoubtedly one of the best covers I have listened too.
I've always been a huge fan of this song. The first time I heard this version I was like...meh. As time goes on it's really grown on me.
I always like when metal covers a song and does it better another example is disturbed covers
I love this!
Totally underated song by Co 😀l Chamber
It's dogshit
When I was a kid I hated it because my brother and sister overplayed the hell out of it but its a catchy song and featuring ozzy makes it an awesome cover
These guys were so badass live! Heavy heavy pits & hi energy every time!
I just saw them last month and trust me they are still playing just as good as they were in the early 2000s if not better!
One of the greatest covers out there. 2024 and all these years later I'm finally going to see Coal Chamber, I am so stoked!!!🤘🖤
Same!!!!

Legend Group Records damn i would love just to be in the presence of the great ozzy
Why do people hate this so much? It's a weird remake of a song that was originally weird to begin with. Musically it's a great atmospheric track
Music elitists are a toxic bunch of people who think being musically narrow-minded is something to be proud of.
I actually like this version!

thx never knew it was a cover. I like one better it turns out lol.
Because it’s wicked filled with occultism and satanism.
When a song stuck in to your head and you dont know why....
bc MUNKAAAAAYHHH
Coal Chamber всегда останутся для меня самой любимой металл группой, и пусть они уже никогда не будут вместе, я все равно буду любить их❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Хехе, а они снова вернулись
они вот недавно вместе турили)

I like this song. Has an industrial feel to it.
I came here for coal chamber at first, now I'm here for the ozz man.
Peter Gabriel comes first.
As.... You should know.
Smfh
@@TheFLOMAN76 No.
Can't beat the original song.
@@TheFLOMAN76 well this did
Gabriel wrote the song originally.
Can't beat the original.

It’s trash
I remember this being the ONLY redeeming tune on Chamber Music.
I loved the first Coal Chamber cd.
Now that I have come back to this video I'm truly shocked, this sucks incredibly.
I must have been grasping at straws to like something in it.
The next cd was good.
Congratulations you figured out what Sharon osbourne was thinking 25 years ago
Badass cover. I had gotten the CD when it first came out. Wanting to see the lyrics. Disappointed they weren't there. Only that song though. Then I found out why. Later heard some other Peter Gabriel tracks. Eventually bought the 'So' album. Top notch music right there.
I love both versions of this song. It's a fun song.
both versions ?
@@laurence5399 Yeah.ruclips.net/video/CnVf1ZoCJSo/видео.html
I never tire of listening to this beautiful tribute to the greatest and only creator of punk and dark
I can’t explain how cool this was to me when I was a young teenager
Never heard this version before. While I'm not a pure metal head I do like Ozzy and I think this is not too bad actually.
One of my favorite covers of any song ever. This and White Zombie's cover of Children of the Grave. And Vader's cover of Fight Fire With Fire.
Un génie singlé + un génie singlé... ça donne un chef d'œuvre !!!
I remember buying the cd at oncue. Lol love the 2000s. Young experimented never doubted any thing i bought. Loved all 2000 metal rock🤘
Chills. I remember my grandpa taping an episode of a late night metal show that used to be on and this was one of my favourites
You mean he did it for you or by mistake? Either way it gives you chills.
Classic AF, this was when music was really kicking ass and taking names.
Ozzy Osbourne was perfect for this song.
Devia estar dopado quando aceitou esse convite.
Fun fact: he's the reason this song exists. He's a huge Peter Gabriel fan and Sharon was Coal Chamber's manager.
Peter Gabriel wouldve been better!
Wait...
@@TheFLOMAN76 Peter Gabrieks voice would not have blended as well with the bone crunching vibe of this cover. That is why Ozzy Osbournes voice fits so well in this cover.

Definitely my favorite PG song. You guys nailed it 🔥
I miss metal from the late 90's.
lol how do u think i feel ? im 5 decades old 🤣🤣🤣
this cover is 💯
Always loved the atmosphere of this video
why does no one talk about the way meegs moves??? he's so cool dude
Bad ass album still is and was remember I was in high-school my sophomore year brings back the good times when hastings video was around
I remember when this was on the Box back in the late 90's. Still as awesome as I remember
An eternal classic.
I like it. If you don't, you can move along. There are millions of videos on RUclips. Nobody is forcing you to watch or listen.
People are free to give criticism. If you don't like it, don't leave a comment about it, just move along. See what I did there?

with ozzy in this they look like one bg happy family

I miss the HELL out of Coal Chamber!!!!
Meegs is now in Gemini Syndrome
Coal Chamber is still around
I do too, except this song!
Coal Chamber hasn’t been around for a while. Devil Driver just plays some of their songs.
D H No they’re not! The singer is in DevilDriver.
I dont understand all the shit talking about this song, it's freaking great.
Ozzy makes this song way cooler
U avin' a giggle m8? Who u playin at bruv?
@@Venus-cx5sy nah he’s just bri’ish
I don't get all the negativity for this song. I liked the original and I like this one. Ozzy was a nice choice.
especially because he voted for peter Gabriel for vh1's 100 greatest artists where Peter finished at 55th place.

ROFL this rendition of the song is fucking awesome! Love the sound.

what can I say? I like Nu-metal XD
Piano Girl fuck yeah nu metal
Those ozzy fuckin fozzy vocals...makes me drool...too good🤘🤘🤘🤘
THIS VERSION ROCKS!!!!!
I had no idea about this. I enjoy finding gems like this... allows me to enjoy when all the crying about who shouldn’t perform with who starts up.
A remarkably good cover of this Gabriel classic!
I dont understand all the shit talking about this song, it's freaking great.
Yayyyy ozzy. Gotta love ozzy
Ozzy should have just covered the song on his own. Sharon Osborne once threw Coal Chamber's manager down the stairs....just wanted to share for no reason.
Sharon Osborne is a pig
Ha! Great share😂 I can see that. Yeah, not sure about this Coal kid, but Oz kills it as per usual
What reason would he have to cover Peter Gabriel? This was a relevant band at the time and it kept Ozzy in the public eye.
By the Gods of Metal, may this cover never be outdone or out shined
Love u Ozzy and coal chamber,I've seen Ozzy a bazillion times ,and coal chamber once but it was awesome back then💜✨loved this one!!
How did I not know this existed? This is the most beautiful disaster.
how is this a disaster?
Dustin Toland because it’s a cover song he’s guest singing in? Duh?
josh fike because it is! 😂
Certainly that second part 😆
What year was this made.
Featuring Ozzy The Prince of Darkness himself this is a big deal 🙂
Feat. Ozzy Osbourne?
I know.. did it seem unnecessary to mention the songs biggest selling point? Come on.
Probably for his voice being similar to Gabriel's tones.
I honestly hate Ozzy. Crazy train could be good but the lyrics. This one though, pretty awesome.
@@nickpierce8627 considering ozzy was big before your dad was even born

Of all the great songs off of Chamber Music to make a video to, they chose this one? Wow...
This song should have been called, "don't fuck with Peter Gabriel."
Yeah
Michael dude peter gabirel or whatever his name is SUCKED, this cover was definitely better than the originial
DaskyisDalimit You are an idiot. In fact, you can choke on shit for saying crap about Peter Gabriel.
You know, it's okay to like BOTH versions :p

Agree bro
