Sometimes I like to listen little heavier music, but usually there is something in heavy music that I dislike. Anyway from this version of slam is nice, but singer really destroys whole thing. This would be very nice piece of music without him.

I agree in fact the music was quite good for an AV cover, while I must say the guitars do irritate me after a fews listens. And as you said the singer indeed ruins the majority of the performace, if they would release a instrumental of their performance or replace their singer than they would indeed make a good deed.

The cover is OK for me. SLAM and it's lyrics are world wide known and the singer english pronunciation is not a problem at all. And apparently he is in "a mood" with this bottle in his hand.

I like guitars, most of my other favourite bands are folk and/or rock bands. The singer's pronounciation doesn't bother me that much.

Even though I hate guitars in Alphaville, this cover is not bad, just different, and that can also be a good thing, the singer is terrible though

Good opinion willy, i honestly think that could be a result. Its really a good instrumental when you know how to listen to it, and at least they know how to play it.
