Quorthon had top tier Beatles taste. This has always been one of my favourite Beatles songs, thought it was hugely underrated. Such a shame that we lost him when we did. Bathory had so much more in it. Still, we'll always have Under the Sign of a Black Mark, Blood Fire Death and Hammerheart. In my opinion, Bathory was the first true black metal band and certainly one of the best.
Quorthon was a genius. Way ahead of his time. He started up the whole black metal scene the viking metal scene and then comes out with this work of art? Probably the Beatles best song imo. He trolled the media and lied his way to death. The man was a pure troll and a absolute legend
Wow!!! Before this, as a Beatles fan, I wasn't able to imagine a Black Metal musician doing a fantastic Beatles cover song; this is simple awesome!!! & now I appreciate too much more Bathory's stuff.
Неожиданно конечно, но многие метал музыканты восхищались Битлз: Питер стил из type o negative, Оззи Осборн, Celtic Frost, Metallica, Лемми и многие другие. Они велики
I was browsing through Bathory/Quorthon's discography and saw this. The father of Black metal and Viking metal metal singing the Beatles. Yeah, I had to check this out.
haha if you read his statement correctly, you'd know he said "60's - 70's" Sabbath formed in 69, Motorhead formed in 75 but the name came from a song Lemmy wrote in a previous band called Hawkwind. and apparently Quorthon was also a Beatles fan, so maybe you should educate yourself a little before asking dumb questions?
When I wake up early in the morning Lift my head, I'm still yawning When I'm in the middle of a dream Stay in bed, float up stream (Float up stream) Please, don't wake me, no, don't shake me Leave me where I am, I'm only sleeping Everybody seems to think I'm lazy I don't mind, I think they're crazy Running everywhere at such a speed Till they find there's no need (There's no need) Please, don't spoil my day, I'm miles away And after all I'm only sleeping Keeping an eye on the world going by my window Taking my time Lying there and staring at the ceiling Waiting for a sleepy feeling... Please, don't spoil my day, I'm miles away And after all I'm only sleeping Ooh yeah Keeping an eye on the world going by my window Taking my time When I wake up early in the morning Lift my head, I'm still yawning When I'm in the middle of a dream Stay in bed, float up stream (Float up stream) Please, don't wake me, no, don't shake me Leave me where I am, I'm only sleeping
@gatodanzig There are some Beatles songs that are really great (a lot actually). You should probably also check out Tomorrow Never Knows (from the same album). Also Strawberry Fields Forever and It's All Too Much are fantastic (the layered drums on those songs, fuck yeah!), but may or may not appeal to you. Also the song Helter Skelter because it's so heavy (for 1968 at least). It even inspired Charles Manson to start his psycho revolution.

I never thought I'd say this about the godfather of black metal, but this is quite charming. He's such an underrated genius. I miss him.
Quorthon was more multifaceted than i expected.

Quorthon
John Lennon

The Beatles, a band who's sound I've never really enjoyed, made a song perfect for Quorthon's vocals. A thousand times better than the original
When I wake up early in the morning
Lift my head, I'm still yawning
When I'm in the middle of a dream
Stay in bed, float up stream (Float up stream)
Please, don't wake me, no, don't shake me
Leave me where I am, I'm only sleeping
Everybody seems to think I'm lazy
I don't mind, I think they're crazy
Running everywhere at such a speed
Till they find there's no need (There's no need)
Please, don't spoil my day, I'm miles away
And after all I'm only sleeping
Keeping an eye on the world going by my window
Taking my time
Lying there and staring at the ceiling
Waiting for a sleepy feeling...
Please, don't spoil my day, I'm miles away
And after all I'm only sleeping
Ooh yeah
Keeping an eye on the world going by my window
Taking my time
When I wake up early in the morning
Lift my head, I'm still yawning
When I'm in the middle of a dream
Stay in bed, float up stream (Float up stream)
Please, don't wake me, no, don't shake me
Leave me where I am, I'm only sleeping
I am ashamed.. I didn't believe it was him.... now I love him more 😍

it's great!
Too much! it's in my playlist...thanks a lot!!!
whats the black metal version sound like;)?
Oh NO!!! Quorthon? .. damn.. /shrugz
he did say 70s as well, didn't him?
quorthon has many faces
It could use a little less cymbal, but otherwise it's quite good!
What "Lies and misleads?" I've never heard of anything like that. The only thing that he did which was wrong was rip of some of Venom's lyrics.
Nice try. Think you killed it...literally.
