Hey You - Dream Theater

YouTube - Dream Theater - Hey You (Pink Floyd cover)_h263 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rdVCmP9CjQ)

Dream Theater does a lot of Pink Floyd covers, some of them hit and miss. However, I like Dream Theater a lot!!



*EDIT*

I remember now why it is LB's remake didn't so so hot. It's a great song accept for that minute and a half or so of L - I - M - P in the middle. Ugh.

I think its very interesting to see not just the musical permutations, but also the permutations of the imagery in the video.

All 3 videos bring out 3 different aspects of the song, which doesn't change *overly* much between the three singers.

The lesser known original 1964 version of Tainted Love by Gloria Jones:

I must admit, I'm very impressed with the Genesis version of Land of Confusion and specifically the imagery in the music video.

Then I moved to Disturbed's actual music video, of which I am also impressed. The doors to congress opening and the flood of angry citizens that enter, followed shortly after by the removal of the power figure and the rain of money, are phenomenal scenes.

Its a lot of fun for me to see the music videos of songs I've listened to hundreds of times and to see the imagery the artists associate with their lyrics as compared to the imagery I get when I hear the song.

Actual music video to Disturbed's Land of Confusion:

Another classic song originally by Leadbelly. There were numerous covers so I picked a few.

A-Ha, with the original "Take On Me":

(In spite of the 80's 'taint', this is actually a very good song and a well-though-out and imaginative video).

Reel Big Fish, with their surprisingly faithful yet wonderfully doofy cover

Sadly, you can't here the very end of the Reel Big Fish cover, where you hear the bandmembers in the background saying:

"Take .. me .."

"Take it all away from meeee..."

"Please, somebody, take it the fuck away..."

I've always been a fan of both versions of this song, but APC's video just adds more to it.

A lot of people have said that APC's videos are cheap and just thrown together. Not so, and I think this video proves it.

Pay attention to the scenes and emotions drawn out and when they are called forth.
