    Candlemass did an incredible job on this cover, I love when cover songs aren't an exact copy and make it sound more like their own band.

    LYRICS
    All our times have come
    Here but now they're gone
    Seasons don't fear the reaper
    Nor do the wind, the sun or the rain, we can be like they are
    Come on baby, don't fear the reaper
    Baby take my hand, don't fear the reaper
    We'll be able to fly, don't fear the reaper
    Baby I'm your man
    La, la, la, la, la
    La, la, la, la, la
    Valentine is done
    Here but now they're gone
    Romeo and Juliet
    Are together in eternity, Romeo and Juliet
    40, 000 men and women everyday, Like Romeo and Juliet
    40, 000 men and women everyday, Redefine happiness
    Another 40, 000 coming everyday, We can be like they are
    Come on baby, don't fear the reaper
    Baby take my hand, don't fear the reaper
    We'll be able to fly, don't fear the reaper
    Baby I'm your man
    La, la, la, la, la
    La, la, la, la, la
    Love of two is one
    Here but now they're gone
    Came the last night of sadness
    And it was clear she couldn't go on
    Then the door was open and the wind appeared
    The candles blew then disappeared
    The curtains flew then he appeared, saying don't be afraid
    Come on baby, and she had no fear
    And she ran to him, then they started to fly
    They looked backward and said goodby, she had become like they are
    She had taken his hand, she had become like they are
    Come on baby, don't fear the reaper

      Messiah AND Lowe BOTH are excellent vocalists , and each is unique in his own right . What is disturbing is this ..... candlemass sounds superior with either voice . Utterly talented and epic musicians that have stood up to the test of time ! Marcolins vibrato is not forced at all , and Robert has a spookiness in his tonality that only furthers his raw doom style . This cover however would not have been on messiahs bucket list anyway. Sweden and Norway forever rule when it comes to true metal
