    Hi, guys! I'm Alexandra Revontulet and this is my project Alexandrite. We create Symphonic Metal covers and release them in sets. Each set has four songs outlining the same theme. This is the ninth set and it's dedicated to Rock Hits of 1990-1995.
    We turned this song into a Gothic Metal piece which is very appropriate in my opinion. Even though according to the author of the song, Michael Stipe, "Losing My Religion" is a song about unrequited love, many people feel like it's about being depressed or losing one's faith. The song is filled with feelings of uncertainty, frustration, despair, and loneliness, which, I'm sure, a lot of us can relate to nowadays. However, no matter how hard our lives can become, I believe that we can always heal our souls through music. Please, take care not only about your physical but your mental health as well!

    I'm so glad I found this. What an incredible interpretation, with an incredible voice and perfect theme. This song is a mood for all of us on the outside of the religious phenomenon. What an anthem for pagans, agnostics, Satanists and atheists!
    Being an aging goth in the dark age of plague and reaction gives few pleasures, but when i woke up realizing i needed this, and saw someone had recently had the same thought, that was just euphoric.

    • @AlexandriteVoice

      Glad you like the cover, but you might want research the meaning of the phrase and the origin of the song cause it actually had nothing to do with religion 😉

      The whole point here is to add as much contrast in the vocals as possible, otherwise it's just boring (as it is in the original in my opinion, the range there is less than an octave).
