Amazing work as always guys 😁
Thanks! I know it is not you yourselves that put the songs on Spotify, but do you guys happen to know when the "Like a Stone" cover will be there? It is one of my favorites, =).
My challenge to them is a RHCP cover, no idea how it would go
But when will it be on iTunes? I need this! Edit: It IS on iTunes! SCORE!!
Can you cover some Italien bands? Hope to see it :p
Buildup was literally Linkin Park!
"I remembered black skies
, the lightning all around me,
I remembered each flash
, as time began to blur"
For some reason it made me think of REM, but you know what, you're onto something here.
Yesss
@@jabelzebub1451 Exactly my thought too! Awesome mix by these guys ;)
Yeah, that's totally true...👍🏼
I love Linkin Park!❤️
Completely agree ♥️
This made me think that "everybody wants to rule the world" in the same style (or way too happy) would be really cool
"Everybody wants to rule the world" is my favorite song of all time. With that said, I would support it being turned into a highly processed, bubblegum pop song. The lyrics are about corruption and thirst for power, something we're still seeing too much 35 years after the song's release. Yes, the song is pop-ish already, but I'd listen to a cover dripping with saccharine sarcasm.
Everybody wants to go to War.
Lorde does a FANTASTIC cover of Everybody Wants to Rule the World.
They are both from the same band (Tears for Fears)
I'm thinking a too-happy ska cover of Shout
Me: I love this song
Melodika bros: oh sorry man, how about now?
Me: dies in bliss
You and me both, mate.
There's an armcannon cover of this too that mixes it with the Gears of War theme. Hella awesome
Its truly is a mad world rn
Chipotle Southwest Sauce : best name ever
Especially in Italy, where these guys are from :(
Especially now
@@foihdzas Why? Its a weird name. Sezchuan Sauce would have been better.
In America, things are getting really intense now. :( I hope good change comes from it, though.
I am totally getting Linkin Park vibes from this
I was also thinking of Chester shouting "maaad woooorld". ☺️
The funny thing is, I always got annoyed when my brother would compare a new song to sounding like Linkin Park. But this time, I expect him to.
Yeah, the power chord intro sounds like What I've Done. Same chord progression and close to their sound + similar drum groove also
@@DaP84 indeed
What I've done + New Divide :)
After the first couple breaks I keep expecting to hear "in this farewell there's no blood there's no alibi"
Cause I've drawn the truth from a thousand lies

@@fasolcia25 this isn't reddit...
I was just thinking that!!!
@@genaralapple4908 we're all reddit in this time and age.
@@MrKeplerton that's deep and all but like
What
Dude I've never heard these people before and I'm still early. The hell? These guys are great
you should look more of their vids, i recommend that ;)
Glad you found them! They're still criminally under-subscribed considering the quality of their content, but it's growing steadily :)
You totally should check em out, and more important, SPREAD THEIR GREAT WORK
This ain’t really metal... their Bad Guy cover, now THAT is metal!
wait, your comment made me realise that it isn’t an old video, what
"The world is on fire, we hope you aren't"
let it burn, let it burn....
I'll bring the marshmallows
My world's on fire, how about yours? That's the way I like and I'll never get bored.
this song is perfectly shows how mad our world at the moment
Since I started taking an audio production class, I've come to realize just how consistently excellent yours is. Thank you for your art.
I wish I could share this with my friend who died 13 years ago. He would have loved this. I wish he was still around to enjoy it. I just wanted you to know this was more than cool to me...it’s so well done and I just wanted to the world to know that this guy existed
I hope he passed before he knew you'd use his death as a way to get likes for yourself.
Sad acoustic song + metal cover = 2000's Emo Rock!
No doubt that in 2007 EVERYONE would have this song in their ipod shuffle!
I wouldn't call this destroying a classic. The style fits the song really well, and you guys are awesome. Hope you're doing all right.
"destroying classics" - bah! That was a fantastic cover!
Like they could really destroy a song? Smh
They don't destroy them, they upgrade them.
I know, when do they start destroying them? I'll have to watch their library to find out...
I got chills. This is dope. You guys kick ass!!
IM IN LOVE WITH THIS COVER NAILED IT!❤
Those deep vocals are so satisfying on the ear. Rock on legends 🤘
The various covers of Mad World all sound like the varying stages of depression. The faster tempo (usually a rock or metal cover) sound like the mania that often occurs when angry or frustrated while being depressed. The slower (usually piano driven) versions sound like the nihilistic crash after the mania where you're teetering on the edge of succumbing to the depression.
I feel the whole song had a sort of linkin park vibe going through it especially the opening it was like listening to what iv done.
Awesome cover as always :)
Instead of Linkin Park, I thought of Blue Man Group's Up To the Roof! ("I'm taking the fire escape... up to the roof...") but maybe in writing this song, BMG meant to sound like LP. After all, it's the exact same chord progression!
Im smashing the replay button till its dead !!! AWSOME !!
Can't wait to blast this in my car on the way to work
flyingsidekickp Sounds exactly like me.
This is the greatest sound to reach my ears in MONTHS. You guys rock, keep doing awesome stuff. My wife, my 2yr old son, and I, love everything you put out, awesome takes on songs we love. All of us here hope you are healthy and so are your loved ones, take care!
Appreciate the hell out of your creative efforts during a crazy time. Love your work
I´m having a drink on this. Salute, Fratelli!
Finally, a cover that isn’t slow and depressing
Broken record, but... Depressing Footloose? Lovely job on this one guys! Fantastic style.
I tend to love metal/rock covers of older songs, sometimes even more than the original. You guys didn't dissappoint, keep up the awesome work.
I wonder how 30 Seconds To Mars would do a cover of this song. Their take on Stronger was just brilliant.
Everything this guy touches turns to gold.
Amazing. As always.... I say that every time, but it remains true... You bros ROCK!! Thank you for creating and sharing your music. Love love love love love it.
I'm so ecstatic to see a cover of the Tears For Fears song and not the Gary Jules cover, it's a good version but the original sounds like it has so much more anger and frustration in it, and you really brought that out here. Thank you for blessing my life with this.
You should hear palaye royals they do good
THANK YOU! I've been saying for as long as I could remember that Gary Jules's version sounds like some sad whining, but everyone can't seem to not respect the old man's version which is a good thing so I always just let it be
Yeah I just went thru half a dozen cover videos on YT and all of them, up until this one, follow the glacially-paced Gary Jules arrangement. I prefer the original's uptempo arrangement, and was really glad to hear someone-- anyone-- do an uptempo cover
YOU ARE INCREDIBLE!!!😍
I AM SO GRATEFUL THAT I FOUND YOU!!!
PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE KEEP DOING WHAT YOU DO!!!!❣️
You guys destroyed this in the best way possible! Thank you.
I've been watching videos, shows, and playing games. I wish you and your family the very best! Stay safe and keep making music.
An amazing cover of of one of my fave songs! So expressive & unique- You really have something!
You don't know you need this until you hear it. Looping one after another. My sincere congratulations.
Wow. this is an awesome cover.
I'm glad you guys are doing good enough to still continue making great Videos and help us all through these hard times
Stay healthy! You are my light in this Mad World. Please keep singing in Italy!
Stay safe :) Hang in there. We love your work
Ok this is definitely one of my favourite covers you made, if not covers in general. This is amazing!!!
Keep up the great work! I look forward to the next video!
You guys are absolutely amazing and fucking crazy to take one of the most beautiful and calming songs and make a metal version of it.
But it bloody ROCKS!! Keep up the great work!
"Calming"
"Mad World" is goddamn heartbreaking, not so much for relaxation as it is a meditation on grief, if I'm remembering the right song.
The Gary Jules version is not the original, the original is really mad world, not sad world 😄
More solos like this! Great! This Ending is Awesome!
This song lends itself to any genre really well. Stay safe over there
I was surprised at how techno sounding the original is and not too radio friendly by that time. It was more a throwback to the early 80's sound.
This is Mad World rock cover I've wanted the entire time.
I really want original music from you guys, you are amazing
I keep hitting the like button over and over and over and over...
Lyrics
All around me are familiar faces
Worn out places, worn out faces
Bright and early for their daily races
Going nowhere, going nowhere
Their tears are filling up their glasses
No expression, no expression
Hide my head, I want to drown my sorrow
No tomorrow, no tomorrow
And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very very
Mad world, mad world
Children waiting for the day, they feel good
Happy birthday, happy birthday
Made to feel the way that every child should
Sit and listen, sit and listen
Went to school and I was very nervous
No one knew me, no one knew me
Hello teacher, tell me what's my lesson
Look right through me, look right through me
And I find it kinda funny, I find it kinda sad
The dreams in which I'm dying are the best I've ever had
I find it hard to tell you, I find it hard to take
When people run in circles it's a very very
Mad world, mad world
Enlarge your world
Mad world
Whoa! His accent with the lyrics and it being metal fucking awesome! Great cover! Best cover I’ve heard!
Never noticed how clean Dave's skin was until now. Give me that night routine brotherrrrr.
This is probably your best song, please more metal covers like this.
You can't destroy a classic if you play it with feeling and talent :)
Soooo excellent! Somehow virtually the same manic energy as the underappreciated original but with all that righteous modern shredded edge
this is the first song that does NOT sound like a destroyed cover. Maybe it's the bleakness of the text, maybe the arrangement. Excellent job!
Stay safe and well Bros!!!!! We really need your covers now to keep us sane, especially when your covers are insane!!!!🎷🎺🎸🪕🎻
usually, I don't enjoy hard music, but this one is really well composed
This sound reminds me of "What I've Done." Good work, very much appreciate your talent for musical variations. You're a treasure.
One of my favorites non metal songs. Would you dare with a metal cover of Gloria Gaynor's "I will survive"?? Greetings and courage from Spain... Forza Italia!!
Awesome! That is all I can really say... just awesome!
Everithing feels like the movie "Groundhog Day"....Thank you guys for beein out there an making Things make sence :)
still my favorite cover from your guys
the raw and melancholic energy, and the desperation that I was feeling by the time this cover was written...
love you and this song, my fellas
The cover we all wanted and needed.
Yes.
I have never in my life left a public comment on any site other than facebook and that is a rare occasion as well, but you guys deserve it more than any other artist I have EVER heard, you guys have the precision like point of a paintbrush when it comes to musical talent, keep up the good work!!!!! You are AWESOME!!!
The intro made me think of a Linkin park song, a real experience as always! Keep it up guys!
This is absolutely fantastic
The instrumental gives me a Linkin Park - Leave Out All The Rest feeling, I like it.
I've always loved this song. You guys killed it! GREAT job!
Daaamn, it was hot! When I read the title, I thought it would be ordinary guitar-like cover with distortion (even though I knew you guys do excellent stuff, sorry for disbelief, but most "metal covers" people lack of imagination), but boi, I glad I was wrong.
Grazie dall'Ucraina!
Always have loved this song. This is an awesome cover. You guys are amazing! Love your voice.
This is so sick dudes, I really love it!
Couldn't have been a more fitting song these days.
Good work guys! Stay safe
This is killer!
I would love to see you all do Danger Zone as a folk song 🤣
the mad lads, they did it. this was great!
When the mad world makes u mad
Every Song you guys remake is always Better than the Original
The Guitar Tones are INSANELY AWESOME
Ive been listening to the og daily for 6 months feeling something coming
UNCHAINED SHAMAN people have been saying “something’s coming” for centuries. But now, they may be right. Pandemic, unhinged world leaders, rising pollution and climate change. We’re in for a bad time. And unlike the Bronze Age Collapse, there won’t be easy resources just lying on the ground to start over again.
@@gryphon0468 We've survived worse pandemics & worse leaders. Also, pollution has actually decreased worldwide, and we're actually using less resources to get more energy nowadays.
We really are a lot better off now than at any other point in history.
You guys are amazing. The song did not lose his sad feeling but still metal at the veins. Love it. A big hug from Brazil
Love the Linkin Park vibe
I discovered your channel recently and you are great musicians ! Incredible ! It's F**** everytime when i see your videos ! And WTF with your voice !!!
"I'm too sexy" way too platonic version.
Solid cover. You guys are the best.
How long before we see this in Google Play Store? Glad I mafe it to the premiere! This is awesome!
One of the best covers of this song I've come across!
*"They are loving and a...sexy."*
I found the *slaps cheeks* in the thinking time immensely enjoyable, especially when it seems to signify 'sexy'. I might you use it from now on: oh she's quite *cheek slapping moment* sexy
Bellissima
You're absolutely incredible
Music was fabulous, but at times I felt like the singing needed some badass growl. Not much I imagine just on the "Mad World" line would be enough. But other than that great work as always! Love your covers, bros, you're my favourite music cover channel!
Not necessarily growls, but a bit more passion^^
Amazing!!!!!!
it really sounds like linkin park, it sounds really nice ! Good job, once again !
I can't stop head banging with this cover, amazing!
Am I the only one that thinks The intro souds like 'What I've done' by Linkin Park.. but great job
Love it. Blessed be to this kick ass band i was guided to find on youtube today. Sending my love, light, and all sorts of magical witchy vibes to. 😘🌹🌒🌑🌘
Please do we Will Rock you. Maybe way too country ^^
A way too sleepy version would be pretty punny.
I love your guys covers. Happy to see you guys are ok. It sure is a mad world right now. Listening to you guys makes me feel so happy, I love the songs you guys do. Stay awesome guys and stay safe. 🤘🏼😊
when the world can travel again we need a concert
This is actively brilliant. Now I just need the rest of the alt-metal Melodicka Bros album and I'll be all set, thanks.
someone make a music video for this where it shows how the lyrics for this truly mimic the panic and confusion, and sitting in place we're doing rn. literally just grab videos from the internet about covid-19 that demonstrate the lyrics.
I love this version! Brilliant!
When is this song going to be available? Its awesome and I need it.
Delightfully, this song even endures/survives this kind of treatment and, does not suck.
how about CARELESS WHISPER ( WAY TOO SEXUAL)
They usually do the opposite so it'd be way too sad.
@@christofferlarsen8034 Pero en este caso... ¿No te picaría la curiosidad cómo los hermanos Melodicka se las arreglarían para volverlo aún más sexual? Yo pagaría por ver eso.
@@christofferlarsen8034 The song really is more sad than sexual if you pay attention to the lyrics
I would love a real sad version of it, too. Sth like way too tragic and uncheesy... LOL
XXX XXC yes
You guys are geniuses. Great cover!
