Why do the Scots all have to make it about Scotland? Do you feel like the poor relation/short guys lol. Just asking. For example; if it was a cover of an American band's tune by Blur for instance, I wouldn't feel the need to say that 'my countrymen did it proud'
@@tabascocat5102 Seems to bother you more than it does me. Spare me the disingenuousness you English are acknowledged as just about the most jingoistic people on the planet. Could it be that you are just a ‘little Englander?’ 😉
@@Stormbringer75 I'd like to know who thinks that. I see less jingoistic behaviour here in England, FROM the English than any others. St Georges day is almost forgotten but, St Patricks? St. Andrew's Day? They're big. I'm just curious
HM Axyl yeah this version is deep and dirty heavy, but still maintains crispyness round the edges, helped by the vocalist not growling or screeching or screaming. So it is very heavy metal instead of grungy imo
There have been cover versions of this song performed by much bigger bands, but Gun's version remains the absolute best! Also, I just realized that I remember watching this very videoclip for the first time on MTV back in the mid-90s. LOL! Man I'm old...
I heard GUN play this cover back in 1992 at Glasgow Barrowland long before it was even released...... Totally blew me away, was such a great gig.... This band are STILL great, cannot wait for their new album in 2024, their new single All Fired Up is awesome and hankers back to the days of Gallus and Swagger.
Going to see Gun in Dundee tomorrow at the Beat Generator. Saw them at the same venue last August. First time that I saw Gun live was in 1987 at Fat Sam's in Dundee. There's been a few personnel changes since then though. I believe it's only the two brothers left from the original line up. Gun are from Calton, Glasgow.
Still one of the best bands that Scotland produced and they had an inspired cover here. Happy days standing outside the "Barrowlands" going to "Gun " gigs..
Best cover song ever. I was with mates in Newquay one year and this was the song of the weekend. Will never forget it. Sounds as awesome today as it ever did.

Just heard this excellent cover in the space capsule heading for ISS. The crew have made a mixtape that's playing in the capsule prior to takeoff and Tim Peake's playlist is made of UK bands so he's to thank for including Gun :)
One of the best covers of ANY track ever, from the Glasgow boys. Bought the 12" single of this in 1994. Loved it then....love it more now. Robin Topping 31st Mat 2014
Forgot how good this vocal was. Love the original too. This is great song. Great vocal. Gun. Totally forgotten them till just now. 2021. Took me by surprise. Great.
This one and Korn's version are the best. And I don't say this because I'm a nu metal fan, but I think that these two versions are the best covers. Gun made it hard rock, and Korn made it nu metal.
Tim Peake's space capsule takeoff playlist - says it all fabulous and more and Gun's video has enough swagger alone for liftoff. As good as it gets. Simply the best and a total blast on a cold snowy day. Glad I heard Tim Peake talk about it on Radio 4 the other day. Off you go Tim and Gun a perfect pairing up there in space.
Saw these guys do this live in the 1990's... as an opening band for Bon Jovi. Joan Osborne aka If god was one of us was boo'd off stage she was so bad.... 20,000 of us on the field..p155 wet through... waiting for Jovi... These guys came on... started with this... in minutes, we didnt give a crap that the heavens were still falling on us.. we were... ROCKING!!!!!
35th anniversary of the release of a classic song: "Word Up!" is a funk and R&B song originally recorded by American funk band Cameo and released as a single on 27th May 1986, becoming the band's best known hit. My favourite cover version is this, the 1994 cover by British hard rock band Gun, which peaked at number eight on the UK Singles Chart.
Superb. This is how you re-work a classic. Love the ladies as well, Miss Pouting and Gorgeous with the Nose Ring and Miss Fantastic in the hat. Wonderful. Great song and vid.
This CD single was like my third music purchase, I was totally mesmerized. I thought it sounded so cool that I could hear every inhale between the words on the vocal track. Sounded dangerous! xD
..cameo's version was pretty red hot but...this track with its hard driving rock is just fxxking brilliant and the guitar solo is beautiful...'smoking' freaking Gun man!
30 years later I still come back to this. Legendary.
There's no way 1994 was 30 years ago............ damn :(
@@radupintilie2389 you are not the only ones :D

The 1986 original is still the best.
Such a criminally underrated band. That voice - one of the best in modern rock.

@@tabascocat5102 Never mock a Sweaty Sock
Still the best cover of this track I've heard to date.
Better than the original. Oddly enough, i actually think this version is "heavier" than Korn's. Their's is more "grimy" and "seedy" I think. :D
HM Axyl

Gary Moore I couldn't agree more. :)
my favourite version of this song is by The BossHoss idk they just make it so it fits better
Never realised that it was a cover. I mainly know this song because of gun
Simple and totally perfect guitar solo
What a great song, I love it! I put it into my "Shellshocked Radio - Recommendations" List: ruclips.net/video/9vTEJBus0YM/видео.html Very well done!

So nice of Cameo to write such a head-banger for Gun!
1 Of the best covers ever made in music history.

Man you ar as young as you love this Masterpice i am still do❤
O Korn fez uma versão dessa música, más a do GUN é muito melhor
I only ever heard the Korn cover but i think i like this one better.
90's production quality
Still sounds very up-to-date and fresh, without any doubt that's the best version of this song. Long Live Rock'n'Roll !
Except for the oiginal
it's a great cover, but the best version is the original
Still an absolute banger in 2024
Facts
Hell yeah!! 🔥
Classic. No more words needed.
This ia the best cover of Word Up 🎸😎🙏
I love the original, but this version has life of its own 🎸💙🙏😎
I remember listening to this while Pamela Anderson dancing this music on Barb Wire! Peace!
I think as cover versions go this is one of the absolute best. Smashed it out of the park on this 👍

You was an lucky one in1992 never catch this Moniument of Scotch Rock...live
I'm not a fan of hard rock, but an R&B man, so of course I love the original version by Cameo. However, this version is simply amazing. Wow!
Best cover version ever, hands down...love it.
This one is good too but imo korn's cover is better
@@pkyios there's no better, there's just what you like better
@@akrecu yeah thats why i've said "imo"
@@pkyios missed that one, no hard feelings?
The best cover song, hands down
Not all covers will do a song justice but this version is superb.
Excellent remake which made original rocking even better!🤘
This has always rocked….best cover of the original by a country a mile! That solo!
Yup rocked the day I heard it in "Barbwire" movie and still does today.
2020 and still being the best cover🔥
What a great song, I love it! I put it into my "Shellshocked Radio - Recommendations" List: ruclips.net/video/9vTEJBus0YM/видео.html Very well done!
2022 still ♥️
2023 😀
2024 and counting. 😂
It took balls to cover this and turn it into one of the best covers ever recorded
The original is not from Korn though. The original is from 1986 from Cameo.

Soup dragons & Gun 🏆🏆
I love every version of this song but this is the definitive version for me.
I was 28 when this came out and it still fkn rocks now.
One of the best rock bands of the 90's.
By FAR the best cover of this legendary song.
Korn's cover is best
@@RobertoVanegas No. This is far better.
the one from korn was also damn good
Damn, still sounds so good after 30 years, unreal talent.

Funnily enough, so does this, which I'd offer in rebuttal... ruclips.net/video/19d2aolIx0E/видео.html
Possibly the best cover of all time!
There have been a few and this is deffo up there
No way 😂
Definitely in my opinion.
@@Leo-qe3glI've heard Frank Sinatra's "My Way" but who the fuck sang No Way?
One of the best covers ever, and it doesn't detract from the original either
The original would be Deborah Harry's The Jam Was Moving from '81.
@@elenabenz5882 Not exactly, but the similarity is so strong I'd expect a lawsuit was involved somewhere along the line.
Gun rocks this. By far the best version.
Cameo has to be joint #1 with them....
2nd best version. It slaps though.
Agree
The best cover. This and Korn's cover. Both are legendary covers of Cameo's song.
nothing is better than the original
The Drums sound beautiful
I' ve heard better sounding snares...
Forever in my playlist! Greetings from Russia!!!
Best Version of this song!! God damn I miss the 90's
Early 90s 😏
Best time I've ever had, was at college for half of the 90,s
KoRn is better

This one and Korn's version are the best. And I don't say this because I'm a nu metal fan, but I think that these two versions are the best covers. Gun made it hard rock, and Korn made it nu metal.
J ai scotché direct quand j' ai connu cette reprise il y a longtemps
Et toujours dans le coup 👍
This has aged well given it’s nearly 30 years old.
