Im Swedish and we have a lot of great musicians and songs made but there is nothing that gives me goosebump like this man. FFS hes awesome both solo and in Slipknot. Merry Christmas Corey....
Corey seems very much at home singing these songs.. I've never listened to Slipknot and probably won't but this guy is so talented. He said he grew up listening to Elvis , Jim Reeves etc. His grandma raised him and she probably listened to alot of different music. Kudos to her and Corey.
If you haven’t seen it, look up the version from the Zoo TV Sydney DVD. I used to sleep on this song until that version made me “get” it. It’s so bleak. Haunting. I even like it better than the excellent Rattle and Hum version everyone fawns over.
@@MrPorpington the transition from Lemon into With or Without You from the Sydney dvd is just pure magic, for 2 songs that have about a 7/8 year gap between them they sound beautiful together. Also the theatrical performance from Bono is just magic.. amazing version. Thanks for giving it the credit it deserves
@@ColorsBright Hey, I don't know why I didn't see your response until now, but you're dead accurate in everything you said. I'm also pretty biased toward that version because Lemon is my favorite song in U2's entire catalogue, so it just makes WOWY hit even harder for me when it transitions. God that transition. It's ear sex.
@@MrPorpington it's always crazy to think that there's only 4 concerts that had this transition as well... ONLY 4 live shows had this magical transition, so lucky for the people who saw and heard this live.
@@ColorsBright I'm sure Lemon is probably just too much for Bono's voice to handle these days, unfortunately, but I'm still sad I'll never get to see it live.
I recall Corey saying he would warm up prior to going on stage for Slipknot by singing Billy Joel songs. I thought that was sliglty weird but cool. Now it makes more sense. He loves to sing.
I’ve heard this man literally blow he’s lungs and throat out singing songs like Left Behind, people=shit, wait and bleed.. so how can a man who can sing like the fucking devil sing like that!! Him and the late Chester Bennington are just different breeds best two voices I will probably hear in my life time!!!!
@Juan2003gtr ye ok thats why many other artists loved and respected him and his voice. And he has sold some 14,865,000 albums and had songs streamed 300,091,000 times. if that is sucking then ye he sux lol
Corey is a beast, he can do everything !!! His cover songs are all better than the original !!! :D Truly 1 of my favorite artists, he's the 1 who has inspired me 2 power up and make a growling kinda rasp... James Hetfield, Corey Taylor and Sully Erna are my top 3 :)
This cover was excellent but every instrument of the original is so integral to the song. The delicate yet explosive guitar, the iconic bassline, those hypnotic drums, and of course the voice.
I wouldn't say ALL are better than the originals... definitely a good chunk of them, and many more are AS good, but different... there are a few though that, while he does a great job on them, just aren't quite the same. His versions of "Best of You" (Foo Fighters) and "Community Property" (Steel Panther) immediately come to mind.
@Rez - That's why this is a different version. A lot of songs in which the original elements are integral to THAT version can create a perfectly valid and powerful stripped down version like this, and at that point it's kind of up to each listener which one they prefer. Personally, this one had me won simply by getting rid of Bono.
Corey has every reason to be the most obnoxious asshole in the world, but he remains the most humble, down to Earth person I've ever seen interviewed. You just have to love him.
Man I love my current life . To be honest I'm a lucky motherfucker and am truly happy....that said ...I fucking wish I had half of Cory's swagger and talent on his worst day
I love it when artists I actually like cover U2. Those guys have some great songs, I just can't fucking stand Bono. Take him out of the equasion and I'm one happy listener. :)
Not being the same doesn't mean it can't be as good or even better. Personally, I loathe Bono's very existance and all my favorite stuff with U2's influence on it is times other singers covered them.... so I would agree that it's not the same, but in my mind that's a good thing.
is this the same guy who wrote disasterpiece and people=shit? he's a fucking legend #coreymotherfuckingtaylor
I would love it to hear him sing a Cover of "wherever you will go" from the calling!! His voice would fit to this song... :)
Love that song!!
OMG I would kill to hear him cover that :(
corey taylor can sing and can growl much respect !!!! true talent
I'll propably cry when this legend dies... What an artist!
love him all bands are great hes even better solo has his spirit glowing
You HAD to go there?
WTF?!?
Long live to this fuckin singer / artist called Corey Taylor \,,/
#GreetingsFromBrazil
Hes not dying anytime soon lol
Cheer up goddammit, he is still young !!! Maybe you'll be a goner before he is ;o)
Anything this man touches is gold:;
Are we gonna ignore the fact he needs to Make an album of just covers with him singing damn hes good
Im Swedish and we have a lot of great musicians and songs made but there is nothing that gives me goosebump like this man. FFS hes awesome both solo and in Slipknot. Merry Christmas Corey....
Swedish ... you literally have no good band from Sweden
@@JuCud-sq7xjHave you never heard for example of Opeth
That's why we all love Corey Taylor. He is every single one of us
The guy that sings people equals shit... sings U2 songs? sweeeeet
he did amazing covers of little red corvette and purple rain as tribute to prince too fucking amazing.
And it sounds better...
Maggots are a great crowd.

Give Stone Sour a try and then later on down the road you can listen to Slipknot. That's how I did it.
Vermillion part 2 off "The Subliminal Verses" you won't regret it.
Give "Come what(ever) may by Stone Sour a try. Great album. Not a bad song on there.
And the writer is left with no words; it’s so beautiful.
ANY version of this song gives me goosebumps.

This guy he know how to make crowd go crazy and he can control the crowd... damn Slipknot Vocalist
awesome!
Is it me or does Corey Taylor make other songs better when he sings them
exactly my thoughts haha its his voice.
Of course he does.
only Chris Cornell does that better IMO sing other peoples songs that is.

Not this particular song I’m afraid... Bono!
GOAT
Amazing

Corey has every reason to be the most obnoxious asshole in the world, but he remains the most humble, down to Earth person I've ever seen interviewed. You just have to love him.

This man is a god, doesn't matter if the original is generic bullshit when Coret sings it its instanly amazing, even the spongebob theme tune
The original is generic bullshit? Wow.
This dude is god 👏

Man I love my current life . To be honest I'm a lucky motherfucker and am truly happy....that said ...I fucking wish I had half of Cory's swagger and talent on his worst day
Nemtudom h miért nem tudja sok ember értékelni csak a divatot vagy mittomén :D amikor ezek nevezhetök zenének :S :)))))
I love it when artists I actually like cover U2. Those guys have some great songs, I just can't fucking stand Bono. Take him out of the equasion and I'm one happy listener. :)
Anybody know the chords he is playing? This is amazing. Corey Taylor is a BAMF!
#Corey Taylor cmft
tazer is a little shock machine, used by securities
u2
It's not quite the same without Bono's Irish accent, but this is still nice for what it is.
Not being the same doesn't mean it can't be as good or even better. Personally, I loathe Bono's very existance and all my favorite stuff with U2's influence on it is times other singers covered them.... so I would agree that it's not the same, but in my mind that's a good thing.
Muito foda.
well, its due to different music teaching i guess.
In russia (where im from) its ok to name Bm - Hm. So sorry if I confused anyone=)
I want him to sing jcb song
Corey taylor > Bono
You're an idiot. But your entitled to your opinion. You're wrong, but still it's your opinion.
I don't care
You know you secretly do.
richard martinez I’d absolutely say Corey is better than Bono.
chords?
