Honestly, I am in love with your renditions of a lot of these songs. I never thought a cover could be better than the original until I discovered your channel.

[Adamski-]

Hitting the chorus with a full on shout and scream just hits so much harder with all the powerful instruments playing on full blast. It honestly enhances the song like crazy. It really fits well

[theoutsiderjess]

I finally know the name of this song it sounds amazing in both version

[mutation]

Dude... DUDE!!! everything you touch turns to gold. PLEASE, do this!

I made metal cover songs all through highschool. Be prepared was the first. Then duck tales. And more. Then years later, and roughly 9 years ago I found Jonathan Youngs be prepared and prince Ali cover and I was amazed with the creative talent and incredible and unique voice. Any metal band would be fortunate to have him as a singer. We are fortunate to have him as a creator. Your original music is amazing also, thank you for continuing to reinvent songs with a new spin that allows fans to either enjoy them in a new way or in some cases enjoy them for the first time if the original verson didn't resonate with us.

90 seconds doesn't sound like a long time until you're singing this at karaoke and have nothing to do during the instrumental break. I'm looking forward to hearing that space filled with a crushing guitar solo!

[subber.]

i remember you did one a while ago and i absolutaly loved it. it was in time i was not in a great place and i cryed so many times and sometimes by the way you and especialy your eyes lookd in the vid i thought you'll cry with me

[venic-cf]

I absolutely love this song. Never seen the movie, but love the song. You gave me goosebumps again with your rendition of it

[chloemae]

I danced my first solo to iris, it was meant to be the sleeping with sirens cover but i had to dance to the original due to a mistake. It went wrong but i fixed it and no one could tell, still proud of that 😊

[diekleine]

Can I just say: The tension??? Oh my God, I really needed this release, I was so hooked and focused. Real reinterpretation of the song o.o So good!! So good, tho!!!

[Sshadows]

id love a second cover of this song. please let us have it

[megcomb]

OH MY GOOOD I'VE HAD THE BIGGEST SMACK OF NOSTALGIA FOR THIS SONG RECENTLY AND THEN YOU JUST D E L I V E R

[jennystiglet]

The chorus hits different. It's a good different. Gave me goosebumps.

[D-a-n-c-i-n-g_R-a-c-c-o-o-n]

THOSE VOCALS KICKED ME IN THE FACE IN THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE

[LadyDecember]

One of my favorite songs of all time!! The chorus was divine here, I can't believe how equally enchanting this song is when done as metal.

[aaronsmith]

I'm glad you've gotten so famous to be your own meme

[sandrariley]

I never did like metal. My son had me listen to you sing sound of silence. I was hooked. I'm 77 years old and love you and your music. Whe I play my games on my computer I listen to you on my phone. Over and over again.

[benjaminfrost]

I didn't know I needed this version of this song but I most definitely do now.

[ShawnPierceEditor]

This is will always be my favorite cover you’ve done ❤❤

[SquareViking]

Verse: Okay, so normal Iris but with distortion. Cool
Chorus: Oh. My. Lord.
