Definitely in my top ten all time favorites. It sort of enrages me that people always parrot "Requiem for a dream" as being this sort of masterpiece in terms of depicting addiction in film, when Spun did it infinitely better, with humor and intelligence.
I remember watching Spun and this came on, my brain was going nuts. Wait, I know this song!! Number of the Beast was the first album I bought with my own money, ( I was raised on country music and forbidden to listen to “that devil music” until like 87or 88) had a black light poster of the cover on my wall
Yeah me too. It was not unfortunately until the chorus that I finally realized. And then was like f*** I need to find this. This is better than the original. Well different
I had almost the exact same experience... altough a huge IM fan, it tokk me to about the third line to recognixe the song - just becaise of the setting , arrangement and completely different vibe... it was litteraly like a lightbulb was turned on in my head when I recognized the song... mindblowing!!!
I had the exact same reaction first time watching Spun... "What is that song, I know this one"..."Wait, What! It´s freaking Number of the beast! What!!!" My mind was totally blown... I just love this version... it´s just so loose, groovy and carelessly performed.
This song is seriously deep. Knowing the context from the movie Spun and Zwan's esoteric version on acoustic guitar relaying the theme of confronting the evil that you conjure in your own heart, One of the truly great cover songs of all time ...Right up there with Hendrix's All Along the Watchtower and Johnny Cash's Hurt..
As a former speed user.......this song haunts me. In a good way now. I can play it and I'm sober. But there's evil in us all and meth feeds it. Make no mistake The devil is closer than you CAN believe
Love this tune ,love the movie, Brittany Murphy used to be on this song cover for the movie spun but they changed it , she was special there was something about her that was magic❤.RIP B.M
Love Iron Maiden, this is an awesome cover for an awesome movie! I quit smoking meth 14 years ago; I watch Spun now thinking ‘OMG I used to be one of these people!!’
This is what a cover tune is supposed to be. Nowhere near a carbon copy, instead, a recreation...an alternate version if you will. Another example is Hurt by Johnny Cash. Bands put enough of themselves into the song that it becomes part of them. THATS a cover tune done right.
This! I don’t particularly like exact copies of covers, my old band had covered Hurt by NIN and changed the key from minor to major and did a big melodic jam at the end.
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 the reflecetions 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 And as they start to cry, their hands held to the sky And in the night, the fires burning bright The ritual has begun, Satan's work is done Six six six, the number of the beast Sacrifice is going on tonight I'm coming back, I will return I will possess your body and I'll make you burn 'cause I have the fire, I have the force I have the power to make my evil take its course
A lot of people think this was about occult stuff. It was simply about a nightmare Steve Harris (Iron Maiden’s bassist) had. It’s darker when you make it into a folk song….very well done
They made this song so so much their own that it took me YEARS to figure out that it was an Iron Maiden cover. And it's not like I wasn't familiar with the original, I wore the album out when I was a kid plus the live album that it was on, Live After Death. I'd sing this version along with it for years and it never occured to me then one day singing the chorus it smacked me in the face, like...DUH. That's how much they took it and made it theirs, amazing cover
I relate deep with this song. One part of my life I got lost and dark. I seen some things I couldn’t get out of memory still today was it real or fantasy.
Yes WMG, thank you for blocking a song that was a b-side from a long out of print single, a song that should have been on a soundtrack that you never released. Thank you for being Warner "Music" Group.
kool liked it a lot ..and for me to even go there??..i mean come on..maiden?? but ya know what it worked...hereing it the first time??...i didn't realise it but still ..kool track
Bruh....I haven't listened to this in half a decade if that....of all things a Vice gaming video about the Dead Space remake just reminded me of this band when they mentioned them still being on the soundtrack or something. All these years I never knew this had anything to do w/ Billy Corgan or Smashing Pumpkins either. Damn I remember this movie too....wild. Dude was just joking
People always say that angels and demons are two different things but what of when angels come with flaming swords then what are they demons or gods servants
WMG - if you're going to do this then at least do it to a song that we can go out and buy!!! Fekkin numpties - the only reason i am here to listen to this sony in all its crappy youtube glory is because you wont let me buy it!!!!
2 yr old comment but you probably know the answer by now. Soundtrack was not released i don't think and the copyright owners of the original material have prohibited it's release i read somewhere a little while back.
It's not a satanic song. Listen to the lyrics. Steve Harris of Iron Maiden said that the song came from a nightmare he had. It's not meant to imply that they're embracing Satan, but that he had a nightmare where he was possessed by Satan. Either way the song definitely slaps. I'm definitely more a fan of Iron Maiden in general, but this is an interesting take on the song for sure.
the fact this movie is under the category "comedy" just shows how out of touch youtube is. the time period where I knew people on meth was truly sad and disturbing.
This song lives rent free in my head
as it should! truly a masterpicee and one of the greatest covers of all time
Great cover. It reminds me a little bit of Steve Earle's song "Feel Alright".
Just as good as the original!
So good.
Same
It fits addiction so well. That's why Spun was such a good movie despite the hate.
what hate ?
@@sjefleenaerts7277 Check out the reviews for the movie
Some days I wish this song could go on forever
Spun is one of the best movies I've ever seen
Definitely in my top ten all time favorites. It sort of enrages me that people always parrot "Requiem for a dream" as being this sort of masterpiece in terms of depicting addiction in film, when Spun did it infinitely better, with humor and intelligence.
This song is unavailable on Spotify, thank you for having it here.

It's better than the Shawn whoever version on Spotify too

you cant mention Hurt and not mention Disturbeds Sound of Silence
Best version of the song. Wish it was on Spotify
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 the reflecetions 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
And as they start to cry, their hands held to the sky
And in the night, the fires burning bright
The ritual has begun, Satan's work is done
Six six six, the number of the beast
Sacrifice is going on tonight
I'm coming back, I will return
I will possess your body and I'll make you burn
'cause I have the fire, I have the force
I have the power to make my evil take its course

Its exactly about the occult. Remember what Bruce D was involved in and still is. His stuff spilled over to Steve as well...
Best movie soundtrack ever

Thank you in helping to preserve this priceless classic.
It’s so much better than the original and I’m a huge metal fan
Its better than than the original & also the best song that Zwan ever released.
This tune on SPUN, it just blows my grey matter.
😎
A gem that we don’t have access to :(
Definitely puts you in a mood...
This evokes Coltrane doing My Favorite Things. Especially how they keep the duel guitar
Had been craving to listen to this song....what a great fkn jam
Such a beautiful song!!
Spun. The memories
I’m 30 now, but when I was a teenager… Iron Maiden changed my life
I like salads.
They could definitely get you interested in history that's for sure.

Hellfire ..
So you like this version better. I love it too. You still don't diss Iron fucking Maiden.

fuck iron maiden
Maiden is The Greatest metal band ever. At least Zwan didn't disrespect Eddie, just had a different take. I can see The Head smiling at this one.
🖤💜🖤
SPUN!!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
it's actually from Djali Zwans solo project, He is the singer from Smashing Pumpkins
You mean Billy Corgan?

Is this Billy Corgan's Voice?
Hell no!

the fact this movie is under the category "comedy" just shows how out of touch youtube is. the time period where I knew people on meth was truly sad and disturbing.
Who is singing? It sounds like the monster magnet guy.
matt sweeney of skunk and chavez
are you spun ?
This doesn't sound like Billy Corgan to me, sounds more like Chris Cornell. Whoever it is, thank you
it's matt sweeney singing on this track.
So much better than the original. I hate Bruce DIckinson's voice.
Good but iton maiden is the best
what'd you expect? they're losing so much in royalty fees /sarcasm
It doesn’t sound like Billie to me
Not him singing, supergroup, Zwan, Perfect Circle, Slint and Chavez and of course Pumpkins, might be Jimmy Chamberlain singing
No, not Chamberlin. Matt Sweeney sings this song
