It’s such a crime that this cover isn’t on Spotify

[Rover]

This version has such a haunting quality to it, gives me goosebumps every time I hear "my name is Lucifer please take my hand".

[gigistephens]

Zakk's voice is so under the radar when we think of his musical prowess. The man can do. It. All.

[jackapples]

Zakk Wylde has the most pure voice ever I swear

[PooPoo-pmeb]

Not the same without the hello kitty!!

It was a dark, misty & cool day in Budapest November ‘17. My buddy Mert & I went to the mountains west of the city, Budakeszi area, in the morning and hiked until dusk. Every time I hear this I can feel the crisp misty air that engulfed the forest and hills, the mysterious aura set by such ancient & historical forests, the spirit of adventure in the vast expansiveness. The entirety of this song truly invokes the enchantment of the adventure. Hiking is a staple activity of mine, and that hike was super sick. After that, we had some stellar döner kebabs. 10/10: the day and the kebabs.

The microphone makes it way more haunting. Love it!

Oh yeah!
Some people say my love cannot be true
Please believe me, my love, and i'll show you
I will give you those things you thought unreal
The sun, the moon, the stars all bear my seal

Oh yeah!
Follow me now and you will not regret
Leaving the life you led before we met
You are the first to have this love of
Forever with me 'till the end of time

Your love for me has just got to be real
Before you know the way i'm going to feel
I'm going to feel
I'm going to feel

Oh yeah!
Now i have you with me, under my power
Our love grows stronger now with every hour
Look into my eyes, you will see who i am
My name is lucifer, please take my hand

Oh yeah!
Follow me now and you will not regret
Leaving the life you led before we met
You are the first to have this love of mine
Forever with me 'till the end of time
Your love for me has just got to be real
Before you know the way i'm going to feel
I'm going to feel
I'm going to feel

Oh yeah!
Now I have you with me, under my power
Our love grows stronger now with every hour
Look into my eyes, you will see who i am
My name is lucifer, please take my hand

What makes something a great song is that you can play it any style any volume and it always kicks ass

[moscowgonzo]

This is my Quarantine Anthem

Official.

When he holds back like this, it's really enjoyable. Wish he would use this same mentality with his own music. Not necessarily singinging soft or using acoustic gtrs, just not playing at 100 all the time and doing the wildman shtick.

[luccote]

Badass heavy metal guitarist takes badass heavy metal song and does this to it .
Awesome!!!

[Hamshrocks]

Yep, like all have said before, Hello Kitty N.I.B is my all time favorite version . Seriously, it's the best version of this song ever.

[anagnostopoulosvasilis]

the lyrics and music are magical and anyone who sings this song with true love is forever mesmerized by their power. Imagine the person who thought of it and put it together how powerful it will feel FOREVER
