LYRICS
Cover me, when I run.
Cover me, through the fire.
Something not beyond the greed.
God i'm on my knees, cover me.
Die in peace.
Hey!
Monkey, monkey, monkey.
Don't you know you gotta, shock the monkey.
Hey, hey!
Fox the fox.
Rat all the rats.
You can ape the ape.
I know about that.
There is one thing you must be sure of,
I can't take anymore.
Darling, don't yout monkey with the monkey.
Hey!
Monkey, monkey, monkey.
Don't you know you gotta, shock the monkey.
Hey! Hey!
Shock the monkey! Hey!
Monkey!
Wheels keep turning.
Monkey!
Somethings burning.
Monkey dont like it but I guess I'm learning.
Shock! Shock! Shock!
Watch the monkey get hurt, monkey.
Cover me, when I sleep.
Cover me, when I breathe.
You throw your pearls before the swine,
make the monkey blind.
Cover me, darling please.
Hey!
Monkey!
Too much at stake.
Monkey!
Ground beneath me shake.
Monkey! And the news is breaking.
Shock!
Shock!
Shock!
Shock!
When Ozzy sings, I have no problem understanding him.
When he talks, all that goes out the window.
That's a textbook example of how speaking and singing aren't controlled by the same part of the brain.
I understand him completely.
That's your fault. Just like e.f. huttin. When he sings,.. everyone listens
Aaahahahah!!! Doesn't even sound the same person. 😉 I do admire greatly his work in the metal industry!
Even though post malone made him famous! Hahahaha fucking kids these days!! My kid knows who all the greats including the greatest Ozzy is!!
Peter Gabriel: "Cover me..."
Coal Chamber: "Okay!"
I literally laughed out loud
That’s some good wordplay
🤣🤣🤣
Only thing is...it's not as good as the original!!
@@finsfan1376 coal Chambers cover is 100x better than the original
Dez and ozzy's voices work so well together
Dez is cheesy and campy.
@@DarthflipsDidn’t know your rear could talk.
Ozzy's vocals make this one of the best covers ever. I love when covers sound like the original but different enough to stand out.
😂😂😂
if this is one of the best covers ever, then people should stop covering instantly. this is audio torture
Lol have you listened to many covers?
When the right band covers the right song, it can be magic. This is not it.
That right!
I love Dez's clean vocals in this song.
this is my ALL TIME favorite peter gabriel song and I absolutely adore this cover. so cool to hear that amazing synth riff reimagined as a guitar riff - it works amazingly well. what a stroke of genius!
Me too!
20 years ago I watch this music video because of Coal Chamber and 20 years later I continue to watch this video because I love Coal Chamber.
Why do people hate this so much? It's a weird remake of a song that was originally weird to begin with. Musically it's a great atmospheric track
Music elitists are a toxic bunch of people who think being musically narrow-minded is something to be proud of.
I actually like this version!
@@defact2882 Completely agree!! Metal fans can be quite closed minded at times. The Black Metal and trad metal scenes in particular are rife with gatekeepers. It's the musicians who tend to be more open minded.
thx never knew it was a cover. I like one better it turns out lol.
Because it’s wicked filled with occultism and satanism.
I've always been a huge fan of this song. The first time I heard this version I was like...meh. As time goes on it's really grown on me.
I always like when metal covers a song and does it better another example is disturbed covers
I love this!
Totally underated song by Co 😀l Chamber
It's dogshit
When I was a kid I hated it because my brother and sister overplayed the hell out of it but its a catchy song and featuring ozzy makes it an awesome cover
When a song stuck in to your head and you dont know why....
I remember being in my early 20s when this came out. What a time to be alive!!!
peace ✌️ fellow oldie 😉
Ditto, it was on my regular playlist
This is undoubtedly one of the best covers I have listened too.
I actually had the privilege of being in the studio as Ozzy was tracking his vocal for this song. I was MTV Exec at the time, and Sharon had been meeting with me to pitch a show called, "Dinner With Ozzy". Soon after, I left the network, and the show became....you guessed it, The Osbourne's! It was a great hang! I remember the producer trying to give Ozzy some direction on the main line...and Ozzy saying...(in Ozzy voice...) "That's Not The Way Ozzy Would Sing It". LOL. Classic!
III waaaant my M - T - V ... back instead of the crap it turned out to be since early 2000's, damn it!
Sam Slovadz lol... was OZZY to blame for the downfall of MTV? Maybe... just maybe
Legend Group Records I remember watching The Osbourne’s all the time. I bet you have lots of interesting stories to tell when you worked for MTV. I do have good memories of MTV in the mid 90’s, when I was teenager. Wow that was so long ago.
Legend Group Records hey bro! How come you fucked up MTV?!?!!!!!!
Legend Group Records damn i would love just to be in the presence of the great ozzy
Really like the lead singers voice, his range, how he can go from growl to actual good singing...
I remember seeing Coal chamber at Ozzfest 97 brings me back memories, love Coal chamber love this remake and love you Rayna Foss, awesome bass playing.
These guys were so badass live! Heavy heavy pits & hi energy every time!
I just saw them last month and trust me they are still playing just as good as they were in the early 2000s if not better!
The perfect combination, A legend like Ozzy and on of the best bands Coal Chamber. Dream Duo
I came here for coal chamber at first, now I'm here for the ozz man.
Peter Gabriel comes first.
As.... You should know.
Smfh
@@TheFLOMAN76 No.
Can't beat the original song.
@@TheFLOMAN76 well this did
Gabriel wrote the song originally.
Can't beat the original.
I used to be terrified of seeing Ozzy as a child., whenever I was home alone watching TV and a vid like this pops up...as much as it excited me I was exposed to heavy metal, I literally feared he would appear out of the shadows in a dark corner I was 100% positive he was in the house and that I could sense his presence lmao
They made this song better. Awesome duo! 🤘🏻🖤 Dez's vocals are so good with Ozzy's 🔥🔥🔥
You cannot possibly dislike this track. Not only because Coal Chamber are badass, but it has one of the most famous people in metal, Ozzy Osbourne, in this.
Every one has opinions. Tbh as the years have went on, it's not the best song lol.
It’s trash
I remember this being the ONLY redeeming tune on Chamber Music.
I loved the first Coal Chamber cd.
Now that I have come back to this video I'm truly shocked, this sucks incredibly.
I must have been grasping at straws to like something in it.
The next cd was good.
Congratulations you figured out what Sharon osbourne was thinking 25 years ago
I love how Dez's voice has changed so much
I can’t explain how cool this was to me when I was a young teenager
Ozzy Osbourne was perfect for this song.
Devia estar dopado quando aceitou esse convite.
Fun fact: he's the reason this song exists. He's a huge Peter Gabriel fan and Sharon was Coal Chamber's manager.
Peter Gabriel wouldve been better!
Wait...
@@TheFLOMAN76 Peter Gabrieks voice would not have blended as well with the bone crunching vibe of this cover. That is why Ozzy Osbournes voice fits so well in this cover.
Caleb Grill hahahahhaah
why does no one talk about the way meegs moves??? he's so cool dude
I like this song. Has an industrial feel to it.
I miss metal from the late 90's.
lol how do u think i feel ? im 5 decades old 🤣🤣🤣
I love both versions of this song. It's a fun song.
both versions ?
@@laurence5399 Yeah.ua-cam.com/video/CnVf1ZoCJSo/v-deo.html
Classic AF, this was when music was really kicking ass and taking names.
Never heard this version before. While I'm not a pure metal head I do like Ozzy and I think this is not too bad actually.
Coal Chamber всегда останутся для меня самой любимой металл группой, и пусть они уже никогда не будут вместе, я все равно буду любить их❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Хехе, а они снова вернулись
они вот недавно вместе турили)
Gatinha
I never tire of listening to this beautiful tribute to the greatest and only creator of punk and dark
I DON´T know what the great Peter Gabriel could say about this cover, but, if I was him, i´d be JUST TOO DAMN PROUD OF IT ...thanks for posting it, man !!!!
Badass cover. I had gotten the CD when it first came out. Wanting to see the lyrics. Disappointed they weren't there. Only that song though. Then I found out why. Later heard some other Peter Gabriel tracks. Eventually bought the 'So' album. Top notch music right there.
One of my favorite covers of any song ever. This and White Zombie's cover of Children of the Grave. And Vader's cover of Fight Fire With Fire.
That totally rocks, best , I don't know, collaboration between them, two seriously hard core bands is only how I can describe it. And the result is freaking awesome.
with ozzy in this they look like one bg happy family
Chills. I remember my grandpa taping an episode of a late night metal show that used to be on and this was one of my favourites
You mean he did it for you or by mistake? Either way it gives you chills.
I remember when this was on the Box back in the late 90's. Still as awesome as I remember
I like it. If you don't, you can move along. There are millions of videos on UA-cam. Nobody is forcing you to watch or listen.
People are free to give criticism. If you don't like it, don't leave a comment about it, just move along. See what I did there?
@@keyboardking777 i see what u did but jokes aside they never criticize they never say what's wrong with the song they just hate and say "ThIS SoNg SuCkS"
💩💩💩💩💩💩💩💩
F M shut the fuck up
This is god awful. Imagine enjoying this. 🤣
Honestly, I don't understand why many critics and people considered this cover as bad. Is it because it is a nu metal band like Coal Chamber doing it? I don't get it. It's annoying that some people tend to mock and disown everything that musicians in this genre have done, they think that makes them cool, but in fact they are just being pretentious arrogant people who can't think for themselves. In my opinion, this is a great cover of Peter Gabriel's song, which stays true to the strangeness of the original song, but also gives the song a fresh face. Ozzy was a perfect choice to assist the song, because he was a big fan of Peter Gabriel as well.
I agree bro people need to shut up and appreciate Coal Chamber more
@@kingkrysen appreciate Nu Metal more
Anybody still listening 2019
yeah
Yuppp
Yeh.
Yeap
Evan Kinsey yep
There's nothing wrong with this cover. They took the song and made it there own. It rocks!
Un génie singlé + un génie singlé... ça donne un chef d'œuvre !!!
An eternal classic.
I miss the HELL out of Coal Chamber!!!!
Meegs is now in Gemini Syndrome
Coal Chamber is still around
I do too, except this song!
Coal Chamber hasn’t been around for a while. Devil Driver just plays some of their songs.
D H No they’re not! The singer is in DevilDriver.
coal chamber definitely needs to get back together again and do more music. I'm talking about all the original members here.
Agree bro
Bad ass album still is and was remember I was in high-school my sophomore year brings back the good times when hastings video was around
this cover is 💯
Always loved the atmosphere of this video
Feat. Ozzy Osbourne?
I know.. did it seem unnecessary to mention the songs biggest selling point? Come on.
Probably for his voice being similar to Gabriel's tones.
I honestly hate Ozzy. Crazy train could be good but the lyrics. This one though, pretty awesome.
@@nickpierce8627 considering ozzy was big before your dad was even born
@@MyXyle666 Haha I'm older than you think.
I had no idea about this. I enjoy finding gems like this... allows me to enjoy when all the crying about who shouldn’t perform with who starts up.
Love u Ozzy and coal chamber,I've seen Ozzy a bazillion times ,and coal chamber once but it was awesome back then💜✨loved this one!!
I dont understand all the shit talking about this song, it's freaking great.
Ozzy makes this song way cooler
U avin' a giggle m8? Who u playin at bruv?
@@Venus-cx5sy nah he’s just bri’ish
Looooove this song!!!! 🖤🤘🖤🤘🖤
That bass is nasty. I blew my book box up from this exact song when this first aired on the radio
This band goes down in history
Those ozzy fuckin fozzy vocals...makes me drool...too good🤘🤘🤘🤘
THIS VERSION ROCKS!!!!!
Ozzy adding his iconic voice, Ozzy did well appearing with up and coming bands to help them out with Ozzfest as well
Man this was the amazing time for music, besides the 80s, I love the whole imagery and NiN , Manson, orgy, energy with the bands look and the way everyone playing their instruments and the small gestures and tilt the head to the side look. Awesome stuff.
I love it!
This song should have been called, "don't fuck with Peter Gabriel."
Yeah
Michael dude peter gabirel or whatever his name is SUCKED, this cover was definitely better than the originial
DaskyisDalimit You are an idiot. In fact, you can choke on shit for saying crap about Peter Gabriel.
You know, it's okay to like BOTH versions :p
Brand X No.
I never understood the meaning of this song but I love the original & I used to be obsessed with coal chamber in highschool & with ozzy so I fkn love this song!
Always loved the way her hair is in this video.
Well... as long as Peter Gabriel got his royalties
I didn't know it was a Peter Gabriel cover back then and it makes so much sense, I can totally hear it now. Now this song makes so much more sense... Or "more sense", let's go with "more sense".
Ozzy doesn't give one rats ass about Peter
@@NealStandley He is actually a big fan of Peter Gabriel.
Peter Gabriel is fucking awesome!
@@benrous8430 I have the touch by Peter gabriel is great.
I remember Coal Chamber...those were the days.
I love everything by Coal Chamber...expect for this
Wow..wat an awsome version.. thanks Ozzy ♥️💯🤘
How did I not know this existed? This is the most beautiful disaster.
how is this a disaster?
Dustin Toland because it’s a cover song he’s guest singing in? Duh?
josh fike because it is! 😂
Certainly that second part 😆
What year was this made.
I dont understand all the shit talking about this song, it's freaking great.
Love it so much ❤️
I don't get all the negativity for this song. I liked the original and I like this one. Ozzy was a nice choice.
especially because he voted for peter Gabriel for vh1's 100 greatest artists where Peter finished at 55th place.
Aids is a terrible
It's a really, really bad cover. Both Dez AND Ozzy are entirely off timing, off key, and drop notes at the detriment of the song. The instrumentation is muddy and really only hits the main riff.
If they were speaking in a different language, you would NEVER realize it was a cover of Shock the Monkey. Ozzy's involvement is the only reason this has any perceived positivity whatsoever - if someone fairly obscure produced this, people would be completely shitting on it.
Featuring Ozzy The Prince of Darkness himself this is a big deal 🙂
Awesome tribute to the Only one, Mr Gabriel.
I was somerhing like 18 y.o. when this song came up and at the time I had no idea this would have been so rare Dez's clean vocal.
ROFL this rendition of the song is fucking awesome! Love the sound.
🤘😎🤘
good times, good music! love this track
i love everything about this
They nailed it
2:40 LOL
A remarkably good cover of this Gabriel classic!
Love this track, but I love how the drumming just holds it altogether!
I never heard the original song, so I don't know how good it is as a cover. But as a song and for what it is, I think this is awesome.
+DarknessShadows666 You should definitely check out Peter Gabriel, one of the more original and defining artists of the 80s. His 3rd album is his masterpiece in my opinion, though "So" is the biggest commercial hit. This is from his 4th album and I find the original to be way superior as it's more nuanced, original and inventive.
R0DisG0D Alrighty. Thank you for the recommendation.
Black Silence lol I bet you like how Windows taste too huh? Haha well its obvious that you don't have any taste and your opinion sucks.
Black Silence this is great ozzy's in it
Black Silence same dude i had never heard the Peter Gabriel version until recently... I love ozzy and got this cd when it came out
I freaking love the electronic background tunes 💕
you're there in every korn comments section, now you're here XD
what can I say? I like Nu-metal XD
Piano Girl fuck yeah nu metal
20 years later and it still rocks 🤟
Great song, incredible styles
I love ozzy so much!
The Bible Belters
OZZY!!
I really like this cover ... Ozzy great showman as always!
Hell yeah just heard it damn - it's 22 and I ain't worried when they did it bad ass
Of all the great songs off of Chamber Music to make a video to, they chose this one? Wow...
This should be called shock the same power chord for 3 minutes.
+Esteban Aguayo lmao pretty fucking true. Not to Mention Ozzy's cringe worth performance "DONT YOU KNOW YOU GOTTA SHOCK THE MONKEY HEY HEY"
+Pigey Man And yet he's only the second worst singer on the track. Coal Chamber were a very special band.
+Esteban Aguayo thats what nu metal is
+Cameron Ferguson Is that a joke??! Ozzy is probably the only reason this video has at least half of its views!! If it wasn't for Ozzy, well Sharon this band wouldn't have even had a chance to become successful because no one else was interested! Ozzy's voice is definitely one of the most unique in the music business of all time and I think that's what attracts people to his music which the fact that he is the Godfather of Metal! I love Ozzy because that man single handedly inspired enough REAL MUSICIANS to pursue their career in the metal and rock community! The big four would have never tried to make it performing metal until they saw what was beginning to happen with Black Sabbath! Not to mention, the deeply dark tone that just had everyone hooked within a couple of their songs! There will never be another band as influential as Sabbath mainly Ozzy because he was the driving force! On top of the impact he had on the community, he set up Ozzfest where Sharon scouted a lot of new talent and introduced them to the world!
Nevada Campbell
TLDR. In short Sabbath rules, Ozzy is meh.
Ozzy and Coal chamber are awesome to together
So awesome how Dez breaks through the glass on the swing...
Peter Gabriel: Cover Me!
Ozzy and Coal Chamber: Challenge Accepted!!!!
Yayyyy ozzy. Gotta love ozzy
Love this man. Such a warrior. 💜
This song and video was a staple for the late 90's.
love numetal
