Weezer did a pretty good cover of Africa. I can't even tell the difference, but you don't need to change perfection.

 

 

This is what I find weird. If you cover / remake a song, wouldn't you add a personal note? Their cover song sounds exactly the same as the original... then why listen to it instead of the original?

"only when you no-life you can exist forever, because what does not live cannot die."

The arrangement is the same, but the timbre and instrumentations are different. As far as covers go, I really like it.

    I really dig the record Piazzolla made for the '78 world cup.

    Opeth's Damnation album always very much reminded me of Diablo.  While there is no exact 1 to 1 copy to Tristram on the album, I will post this:

    I accept your challenge:

    Edit: I miss pre-Squeenix Square Soft so much.  1993-1995 Square Soft might be the greatest 3 year stretch any software company has ever had.

    Civilization, in fact, grows more and more maudlin and hysterical; especially under democracy it tends to degenerate into a mere combat of crazes; the whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary. - H.L. Mencken

    Heh, I saw that on my "related videos" on YouTube for some reason like last week, too, and figured what the heck, and listened to it for a few hours. It was...pleasant, for the most part.

     

     

    People should really take care to upload higher quality videos - it's not too difficult, either. This one isn't too bad, but my FLACs certainly sound better than this.

    Against stupidity we have no defense. Neither protests nor force can touch it. Reasoning is of no use. Facts that contradict personal prejudices can simply be disbelieved - indeed, the fool can counter by criticizing them, and if they are undeniable, they can just be pushed aside as trivial exceptions. So the fool, as distinct from the scoundrel, is completely self-satisfied. In fact, they can easily become dangerous, as it does not take much to make them aggressive. For that reason, greater caution is called for than with a malicious one. Never again will we try to persuade the stupid person with reasons, for it is senseless and dangerous.

    Had a dream last night where this was played at a music festival. I basically just had an amphitheater playing classic songs in my sleep... wish that would happen every night.
