  • Ankor, Halestorm, Trynity, Within Temptation, Lacuna Coil, and Children of Bodom.
    We all have "guilty pleasure pop songs" we listen to when nobody is watching, some of them are composed very well with catchy melodies, but what if those songs where turn into metal?
    Although I know many of you will say you prefer the original versions I love what this metal artists did with the songs. Subscribe and recommend some songs for part 2. All the songs are in a playlist I made so you can listen the songs with no interruptions.

      Some pop songs sounds just too shitty to me to sound good even in metal. Some pop songs are great and have that metal potential in them and thus they sound extremely good in metal.
      Everyone concentrates only on heaviness. But metal always benefits from some harmonies and other stuff. Pop music usually doesn't have that, so even metal versions don't sound so good. For example, most pop music is in major key and metal works best in minor key to my taste. And there is everything else.

      @@metalground212 I'd consider that mainstream repertoire, at least here in Germany where it is on the radio often. Especially on those stations that specialize on 80ies music (it's also on the SingStar 80ies version ;P) The Depeche Mode original is from the 80ies, but they also did a new version in I guess 2010 or something which already sounds a bit heavier than the original does. Definitely is a cool song, no matter the version. And if that helps bridge the gaps between different music styles that's even more of a plus in my book :)

    I think Lady Gaga and Christina Aguilera could have been amazing rock and metal singers if they had decided to go that route with their careers, they certainly have the vocal skills and power in their voices and I've heard them cover rock songs and do great. Such a shame, wasted talent. Britney maybe not for metal, but she would have been a great rock and punk rock singer. Again, unfortunately she went a different way. In general, rock bands and singers tend to be more level headed than pop artists and a lot longer careers.

    And on a side note: I don't know what people see in Billie Eyelashes.

    P.s. Also R.E.M. is awesome and can't be considered Pop by any strech of the imagination.

    If you liked Halestorm's cover of Bad Romance, check out Lord of the Lost's cover of it!

    Should have included In This Moment's covers of Creep and Call Me. Nonetheless, I thoroughly enjoyed the compilation. :)

      Thanks will definitely do a second and third part. I just don't want to extend the video to much cuz people don't watch it.

    I dont think it his fair for the men singing chandelier to put him against a woman(SIA), without huge amplification, he couldnt be heard at all due to a massive uses of mixed and reinforced falsetto while SIA is using a full chest resonance, he did a great job for a man with a "man voice".
