"We're gonna retire this song, because it's not radio rock friendly." Most UN rock and roll thing ever.. If you like the damn song, and you guys did a good job, record the sumbitch..
Hvnter Wade it’s not their decision. Thats whats sad. Its the record companies money and and they clearly gave them that answer. The stranglehold that labels have on bands is sickening. They can literally sign a band and NOT release their record just to write it off as a loss intentionally. Which is what happened to pop evil
soundsoffallacy is right. It costs a ridiculous amount of money to record at a professional level, and labels often have final say on what is recorded and released.
@@soundsoffallacy Pop Evil had a bunch of internal issues with their label after the release of their major debut. They weren't intentionally signed just to be shelved.
I've never heard a Prince song done so much justice before. This literally made me cry the first time I heard it. My father was a huge Prince fan and I lost him a couple years back. When I heard this it brought back so many good memories that I actually had to sit down and take it all in.
When a band chooses to do a cover, it pays homage to someone who influenced them, no matter how obscure. I’m a metal head and @Shaman’s Harvest, you did a great job. I grew up listening to Prince, even though it wasn’t my preferred genre. I can appreciate good music in many forms.
i guess im asking the wrong place but does anyone know a trick to log back into an instagram account..? I somehow forgot the login password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me
I love how you don’t even notice how sad this song is in the original but these guys just bring it out and make it something entirely new. It’s amazing
I am SO MAD they never recorded this! I fall in love with it more and more every time I hear it! And the guitar, by God, makes a girl weak in the knees!!
My wife is a big Prince fan and she even thinks Shaman's Harvest truly did this song justice. It's a shame that Prince couldn't walk in in the middle of the song and join in.
Simply fuckin awesome!! Bad ass Vocals and the lead guitarist can rip on that acoustic can't he??? Outstanding to all you gentleman. Honestly speaking it was just an "OK" song for me when Prince did it.. Now its safely tucked away in my Likes and Favorites so i can hear it all the time. Thank you fellas!
video is 6 yrs old, but most comments are in the last couple months. why did this take so long to be noticed? amazing cover. Prince would be honored, I think.
A lot of people took notice of this band when they opened for Tremonti and BSC a couple of years ago to be honest - it's where I heard them for the first time.
This is absolutely the best cover I have ever heard. I struggle to find anything that even comes close. The lead guitar is so amazing there are no words adequate enough to describe it. This song sounds just as amazing as the first time I heard it. It never gets old. It is a good thing somebody captured this on video. The planets and stars aligned. Every note played and every lyric sang in a perfect proportion. It would be hard to repeat perfection like this again. You don't need to record it again. Release it as it is live and raw. A Mona Lisa of a song.
been listening to these guys for a few months now, speaking as someone whose been into rock for 35+ years since i was like 12 theyve definitely got themselves a fan, and a British one, ive had their Silent voice song on repeat for days, the guitar solo in that is just amazing, And theres nothing wrong with a Rock band covering something that might not be considered rock, specially Prince, i mean, The Foo Fighters covered the Bee Gees!!
DO NOT STOP DOING THIS SONG. HOLY SHIT DUDES! IM FUCKIN IMPRESSED. I CANT BELIEVE HOW GOOD YOU GUYS MAKE THAT SOUND. EXCELLENT FORM GENTLEMEN. THAT WAS THE BEST THAT SONG EVER SOUNDED...WELL DONE!
Dont retire the song RECORD IT THIS EXACT WAY! WHo cares about what the radio thinks or the labels the fans will be the ones listening and from the comments you can see we all want it. Amazing cover very well done
He was one of my son's best friends in school when they were growing up, his step dad was very good too and played in local bands forever. He got him started young and it shows...
This is such a great and honest cover of a Prince song and the one thing that really makes it stand out to me is that it happened while Prince was still alive. It wasn't a bandwagon recording and that makes it more special to me.
its funny that most people cant really raise a torch to princes songs, but damn does this band do the song justice. they really should have recorded this and released it on radio.
Man I can mot believe I have never heard this version for Prince. You did a great job. Gives me motivation to move my son's band in a way to do really awesome cover. Very very talented. Thank u for this cover.
Fuck any music producer that says there's no room for this! I'm as heavy rock a fan add they get and this is beautiful. This shit rock super hard core. Record this!!!! Please 🥺
This is a rock radio hit.... you should release it. It's near impossible to find someone that can do musicians like Prince justice. You made it your own and absolutely rocked it. Remember what happened when Disturbd did The Sound of Silence and when Bad Wolves did Zombie... food for thought.
I'm a HUGE Prince fan and also a big fan of almost every style of rock/metal and have to say that this is probably the best cover of this song that I have ever heard and would love it if you recorded it.
Depressed this never made it past this stage...I'm still listening. And still loving it. One of my favorite songs to hit the heart strings.. Yall are still one of my favorite bands to blast a whole album or more worth at a time. #shamans4life #shamansharvest
You guyz just recovered my faith in humanity. Thank you srsly! This video was sailing on the web for 10 years to reach me. I hope its not too late from me to tell you - keep it up! I hope you all well!
This song is awesome!!! You all are amazing!!! This is a perfect song!!! We all love it!!! You literally blew me out of the water! Best video on UA-cam!!! Please add this song it's perfect!!!! Your vocals are exactly what we all need to hear. We connect with you! That's what music is about!! Thank you this is my favorite song now. My 22 year old daughter says this just like me...As a band you completely are in sync...never heard a better band with such emotion that reaches the soul...thank you
OMG from Houston, Tx! So frickin Awesome coming from a major Prince fan...You have to Record this song!!!! 1964 baby, don't let it be The Last Time...Please!💜
Great version you totally made it your own, you folks always have that southern rock vibe with any song you want to preform, very talents group. Always buy our music for this type of vibe so KEEP doing it your way, sounds great Thank You!
I'm probably a huge percentage of the views on this. I still play this multiple times a day and have been for a very long time. Their music has meant so much to me the last several years.
Pamela Imbesi in fact the Original version of this song and I wish that this Band should’ve recorded and this their version of the original song and In fact I believe that both versions of this song should be played more on rock radio stations
Yall should release it this is beautiful and amazing. I would totally purchase this song and have it on replay. I absolutely love this. Yall are musical geniuses. The music industry overlooks extremely talented artists. Yall are my favorite band. I listen to your songs everyday. Yall never fail to amaze me lyrically and musically.
This will always be one of my favorite covers of all time these guys took a decent song and turned it into something amazing I wish they would reconsider and release this I feel like the musical world is being deprived of something amazing by them not releasing this
We moved to the boonies in middle Tennessee in 2003. I had an Alternative Radio Station that I listened to in Nashville but their radio waves wouldn't make it to my new home. I have just discovered this group and a few others and I'm just blown away! Yes Allen Locke this song has been videoed and I'm so thankful for that BUT this should be on an album! This is a GREAT SONG!!!
These are the types of songs that make the band. The quiet songs you barely hear then boom where the hell did that song come from. So much emotion in this song this hits so hard
@@allenlocke1935 absolutely! Well said! Yes. It would have been cool had they recorded it in studio. But this? Top notch stuff! I didn't even know who these guys were utill I saw this. I'll have yo listen to more
I sure hope this band recorded this. This just ended up in my music feed and made me realize how talented this band is. For the first time ever, I checked out a whole album, all because this video popped up on my "auto play next". It's wonderful when a band can cover a song and actually give it their own sound and still do a great job. Excellent cover. It would be a mistake not to record this cover song!!
Prince was infamously stingy with his music simply because he was a perfectionist and would rarely give his blessing for someone else to record his music. That being said, he would have crapped his pants at the opportunity to play this song with you guys! Amazing rendition! Please dont "retire" it.
Fucking love this song!!! Record it, put it on iTunes! This thing fucking kills! Probably one of your best songs! Seriously, put it on iTunes, and I’ll buy it!!! 👍👍👍
Go and have a look at "popular music" videos. Have a look at the comments and you won't see comments as truthful and as well received as this. So continue the narrative, Shamans Harvest deserve more credit and this cover is one of the best I've ever seen. The other is another Prince cover by Chris Cornell. Prince is before my time and not my cup of tea. But I understand and respect good music when I hear it. Prince was clearly gifted and this band is paying homage to a great. Genuinely brilliant
That dude with the bandanna doing the solos is killing it
Quatsch
not easy to pull off those licks on an acoustic
They all killed it. Fing amazing. Love it
4reall!!!!!!
Could have been yesterday the way it's filmed and sounds. Already 12 years old, great cover
IDK who said this isn't rock radio because this is amazing.
I didn't know rock radio still existed. The only good rock is on UA-cam. This cover is excellent.
Indeed
Sad day in music when there's no room on the air waves for this. This is as real as music gets foos
Well said mane 👍
Ain't that the damn truth. 👍
I think they meant it in another way😉 Like yeah right, we'll never retire this song🤙J's bruh
Agreed!😥
True Dat!🤘🏽😎💯
This is a killer version..I freaking Love it..u crazy..I play this several times a day ..loud!!
"We're gonna retire this song, because it's not radio rock friendly."
Most UN rock and roll thing ever..
If you like the damn song, and you guys did a good job, record the sumbitch..

i fu#$&g loved it !!!!!
soundsoffallacy is right. It costs a ridiculous amount of money to record at a professional level, and labels often have final say on what is recorded and released.
They retired that song because it was written by Prince. Prince let NOONE remake his music...
@@soundsoffallacy Pop Evil had a bunch of internal issues with their label after the release of their major debut. They weren't intentionally signed just to be shelved.

It's not Prince's song
Your an idiot if you think this is Micheal jacksons song try looking it up
When a band chooses to do a cover, it pays homage to someone who influenced them, no matter how obscure. I’m a metal head and @Shaman’s Harvest, you did a great job. I grew up listening to Prince, even though it wasn’t my preferred genre. I can appreciate good music in many forms.
Agreed on that one. I've grown up in 6 decade's of the best music... Well maybe not 6 decade's of the best, but at least 5 😂
Metallica cover was a disgrace. These guys can show Metallica artist how it is to play.
i guess im asking the wrong place but does anyone know a trick to log back into an instagram account..?
I somehow forgot the login password. I appreciate any assistance you can give me
@Vincent Shepard Instablaster ;)
Agreed beautiful cover
I love how you don’t even notice how sad this song is in the original but these guys just bring it out and make it something entirely new. It’s amazing
Well said
‘This songs not radio rock friendly’ Ironically, Prince put most rockstars to shame with his guitar skills
This would have slayed on the radio..... I mean it obviously already did once 🤷♂️🤦♂️
PURRRRRRRRPPPPLLLLLEEEE RAIN
Ehh...
My guitar gently weeps
Amen. It's true 🤷♀️
PLEASE NOT THE LAST TIME!! PLEASE!! MILLIONS OF YOUNG BROKEN DOVES NEED YOU GUYS!!!DAMN!!
I am SO MAD they never recorded this! I fall in love with it more and more every time I hear it! And the guitar, by God, makes a girl weak in the knees!!
I cannot state how much I like this version of the song
Best cover of all time vote for me, this version of this song made me love Shaman’s Harvest instantly!!
Me too!!!
I can listen to this over and over a million times !!! Amazing 👍
My wife is a big Prince fan and she even thinks Shaman's Harvest truly did this song justice. It's a shame that Prince couldn't walk in in the middle of the song and join in.

Mike G my thoughts exactly!
Well said, mate
video is 6 yrs old, but most comments are in the last couple months. why did this take so long to be noticed? amazing cover. Prince would be honored, I think.
I just found out about them when I heard one of their songs in a random playlist. They're amazing, so I'm checking out everything they've done.
A lot of people took notice of this band when they opened for Tremonti and BSC a couple of years ago to be honest - it's where I heard them for the first time.
This was taken off youtube back in 2010. I spent years looking for it. Delete it again and I will poop on the doorstep of the culprit.
Steve Rawding I was wondering that myself... I’m wanting to cover this at my next show.
I found it a long time ago and never commented until today for some reason 😂
This is absolutely one of my favorite covers .. they absolutely nailed it.. best one yet
It's so amazing ❤
Best version here! Gorgeous guitars and vocals. U feel it
Great cover. 1 vote not to retire it.
Prince was such an underrated guitarist. The Purple Rain album is a jam.
No he wasn't.
Prince was never underrated but this wasn't his song it's MJ's song
This is a great cover. You did it justice. This was Princes' life. It says so much. You should record it.
It's not Prince's song though
My apologies I thought I was on Dirty Diana. Lmao
The lead guitarist...transcended....then everyone else did too....dayum!
God I never liked this song until I saw this cover ..have a whole new respect for prince ...rip
Check out Sarah Jarosz's bluegrass cover. Lots of good renditions of this song.
This is absolutely the best cover I have ever heard. I struggle to find anything that even comes close. The lead guitar is so amazing there are no words adequate enough to describe it. This song sounds just as amazing as the first time I heard it. It never gets old. It is a good thing somebody captured this on video. The planets and stars aligned.

Totally agree I. Addicted
Got this albulm as a kid in the 80s and this was my favorite song. Had my Prince purple Rain loster hanging in my room. Dont stop playing this song.
Man oh man, he sings with such feeling, and the rest of them are just killin’ it! I wish I’d have heard of these guys sooner!
Shaman Harvest songs always brings tears to my eyes. Their cover of this song hits me right in the soul.
Dont retire the song RECORD IT THIS EXACT WAY! WHo cares about what the radio thinks or the labels the fans will be the ones listening and from the comments you can see we all want it. Amazing cover very well done
Best cover of it ever.....lead guitarist is on fire
He was one of my son's best friends in school when they were growing up, his step dad was very good too and played in local bands forever. He got him started young and it shows...
One of the best covers of anything ever.
They definitely should record this cover to honor Prince! I bet he would love it!💜
Please, please, please record this, it’s absolutely amazing, and I guarantee it would be a huge hit!!
They should be so much bigger this is real music when you can feel the emotion. Y'all are #1 to me
This is such a great and honest cover of a Prince song and the one thing that really makes it stand out to me is that it happened while Prince was still alive. It wasn't a bandwagon recording and that makes it more special to me.
I listen to this song/video once a month and I never get tired of it. This is beautiful music! 🤘🤘
Beautiful. I can't believe this wasn't recorded. What a tribute.
There will never be another version of this song I'll like. You guys really should have recorded this!!!!!
Dam it brother we got blessed with you such amazing picking your soul is amazing
Shamans Harvest will be going places with soulful sounds like this
Absolutely an amazing cover of this classic song.. great job and do not retire this song ... best cover ever...
I wish this song was officially released. Such a great cover!
I enjoy this version of the song. It had a country urban rock feel to it.. I’m definitely a prince fan and a great tribute to his music
My soul just quaked. This is magic!!
its funny that most people cant really raise a torch to princes songs, but damn does this band do the song justice. they really should have recorded this and released it on radio.
Don’t stop playing it!
We listen to this all the time
That guitar solo!!!!
Man I can mot believe I have never heard this version for Prince. You did a great job. Gives me motivation to move my son's band in a way to do really awesome cover. Very very talented. Thank u for this cover.
Dude you guys need to keep doing this it’s one of my top 3 favorite songs
Fuck any music producer that says there's no room for this! I'm as heavy rock a fan add they get and this is beautiful. This shit rock super hard core. Record this!!!! Please 🥺
Wow! Looked up their video “Dangerous” and this popped up also. I love when hard rock bands do cover versions of songs. Great job guys!
This is a rock radio hit.... you should release it. It's near impossible to find someone that can do musicians like Prince justice. You made it your own and absolutely rocked it.
Remember what happened when Disturbd did The Sound of Silence and when Bad Wolves did Zombie... food for thought.
Yeah I remember..😑 those 2 song are complete 💩! ✌
Kevin I agree with you
Yea they weren't too bright I think... whoevers in the f... was making those decisions
I'm a HUGE Prince fan and also a big fan of almost every style of rock/metal and have to say that this is probably the best cover of this song that I have ever heard and would love it if you recorded it.

Can we please get them to do this as a cover. Their music is so unique and just hits.
This song never retires, bro. It will live forever. Your best also...
Song is timeless. You should record it for sure. You guys are fantastic without a doubt.
You guyz just recovered my faith in humanity. Thank you srsly!

I still play this multiple times a day and have been for a very long time. Their music has meant so much to me the last several years.
😎
You and me peanut butter and jelly
This song should Never be retired ....
Pamela Imbesi I agree!!!
Metallica begs to differ
Pamela Imbesi in fact the Original version of this song and I wish that this Band should’ve recorded and this their version of the original song and In fact I believe that both versions of this song should be played more on rock radio stations
Yall should release it this is beautiful and amazing. I would totally purchase this song and have it on replay. I absolutely love this. Yall are musical geniuses.

P
We're opening for them this wednesday in Jacksonville NC
OK Google take me to guitar centers
This is the best cover of prince I’ve ever heard. The lead is truly awesome and inspirational
I agree!!
I think it's a beautiful version of this song.
This will always be one of my favorite covers of all time these guys took a decent song and turned it into something amazing I wish they would reconsider and release this I feel like the musical world is being deprived of something amazing by them not releasing this
“Decent song”… okay 😂
When Doves cry is not a "decent" song you poor man.
Definitely don’t retire this song .. best damn song ever.. incredible cover
They absolutely owned this song. Best version I’ve ever heard. They Rocked it.
We moved to the boonies in middle Tennessee in 2003. I had an Alternative Radio Station that I listened to in Nashville but their radio waves wouldn't make it to my new home. I have just discovered this group and a few others and I'm just blown away! Yes Allen Locke this song has been videoed and I'm so thankful for that BUT this should be on an album! This is a GREAT SONG!!!
These are the types of songs that make the band. The quiet songs you barely hear then boom where the hell did that song come from.
So much emotion in this song this hits so hard
Wish they would just record their version and put it out there for everyone to listen to
I wish they would've recorded this song
This is good shit,great playing great voice
They did...you're watching it and it's good, Live in the moment is always best as to try and reinvent in the studio.
Intimate and naked...it worked!
Same
@@allenlocke1935 absolutely! Well said! Yes. It would have been cool had they recorded it in studio. But this? Top notch stuff! I didn't even know who these guys were utill I saw this. I'll have yo listen to more
Kully Huntley I just record it using my iPhone
Please don't retire this I'd love to hear this on an album!!! You guys are the $h!t!!!
How the hell do we get this put on Spotify. Amazing
I sure hope this band recorded this. This just ended up in my music feed and made me realize how talented this band is. For the first time ever, I checked out a whole album, all because this video popped up on my "auto play next". It's wonderful when a band can cover a song and actually give it their own sound and still do a great job. Excellent cover. It would be a mistake not to record this cover song!!
This recording will never die.....
I had to pleasure to see them live in Atlanta, they opened for Daugherty and nickelback and they was 100 times better. I hope i get to see them again
Damn you guys killed it!!!!!
Well it may not be rock radio, but man that has some real soul to it.
Thats what im talking about!!!! F××king love it!!! You guys rock this song. So much passion. I want more..
First time I have seen this video. I like it. Wtf? You tube hiding good bands like these guys from me!
you guys this is exactly what needs to be played on the radio. beautiful voice my brother
Prince was infamously stingy with his music simply because he was a perfectionist and would rarely give his blessing for someone else to record his music. That being said, he would have crapped his pants at the opportunity to play this song with you guys! Amazing rendition! Please dont "retire" it.
I am SO amazed by this cover, and especially by that incredible guitar work. Awesome.
Saw these guys in concert, they freaking Rocked!!!!
Fucking love this song!!! Record it, put it on iTunes! This thing fucking kills! Probably one of your best songs! Seriously, put it on iTunes, and I’ll buy it!!! 👍👍👍
Absolutely amazing. This needs to be on an album
These guys fucken rock, need WAY more credit and fans cu they're a hidden gem in rock.
Bad ass jams, soul searching music.
Go and have a look at "popular music" videos. Have a look at the comments and you won't see comments as truthful and as well received as this.
So continue the narrative, Shamans Harvest deserve more credit and this cover is one of the best I've ever seen. The other is another Prince cover by Chris Cornell. Prince is before my time and not my cup of tea. But I understand and respect good music when I hear it. Prince was clearly gifted and this band is paying homage to a great.
Genuinely brilliant
Wow. Prince would have really dug this. Great job on the vocals and melodic guitar.
