    As a German at almost 64 years of age I've seen Udo Dirkschneider and Accept many times live in the 70s and 80s performing this song at gigs that I attended. And I can confirm that this cover is absolutely awesome!

      Not distinct: dead on.
      It's a fake job. A really well-done fake but still a fake. It sounds like Accept because it IS Accept. Their studio version.
      Not even Mark Tornillo, who is the current lead singer for Accept, can do Udo true justice.
      This guy sounds like Udo because it IS Udo.
      Accept's original studio version and they faked along to it.
      Love the production value of the video though.
