I'm italian and I love Fabio Lione's voice. After listening this comparison there are no doubt: this song was written for Eric Adams only. Despite the sound production there's no doubt that Eric Adams is, probably, the best epic singer of the wholetime! Really powerful voice and deep inerpretation.
Eric and Fabio should definitely do a song together in the future. Two legendary voices in the Metal industry. I wish Ronnie was still alive to do a song or two with Fabio or Eric. If that would have ever happened that would be as epic as you could get. Rest In Peace Ronnie
They wont because Rhapsody used to be under Magic Circle back when Manowar were doing MC Festivals and play on the same festivals with Manowar but for whatever reason they fell out and stopped working together, It's almost like Manowar helped them get well known only for them to turn their backs and say we don't need you now.
@@gregorycritch2129 They were ripped off by MC management like hundreds of thousands of dollars and had to change the name. Demaio is a piece of shit and a criminal but ok.
No doubt about it. Eric has more powerful, baritone and naturally raspy voice with attitude. Fabio is a great singer, but in newer power metal style, cleaner and bombastic.

Two very distinct styles. As in most cases one has to go for the original interpretation, but it's also one of these cases where the cover is truly different. Fabio is not trying to emulate Adams, he is actually covering the song in a new direction, and quite successfuly I should say.
I choose Eric, though I think both are great and I see how a reasonable person might disagree, especially if they didn’t grow up on the original version. Here’s how I see it: Eric’s advantages: He’s the better “actor” in the sense that I feel his pain, anger and sense of victory and revenge more sincerely. Eric has once of the most commanding, in charge voices in music. He sounds like the kind of guy you’d take orders from in a way that almost no one else does. Eric has the perfect voice for this, whereas Fabio’s voice is a bit nasally and less commanding. When Eric gets raspy, he gets extremely raspy much more so than Fabio. I love raspy, intense vocal deliveries. As a native English speaker, Eric doesn’t have the distracting accent and mispronunciations that Fabio has, and he has a better sense of on exactly what words to put just the right amount of emphasis on. Fabio’s advantages: Fabio does sound like he’s the better “singer” in the sense that he focuses more on carrying melodies. He sounds like a very well trained and studied singer. Fabio at times makes his voice sound very “beautiful” or you might even say “pretty” in a way that Eric doesn’t. Personally, I’m not sure that’s fitting for this song, but credit where credit is due. Fabio’s version has a louder, thicker, more modern production which can definitely give his voice the feeling of an edge over the classic production when compared side by side. Fabio never sounds like he’s struggling for a breath. His breathing technique is very good. Eric is a very “breathy” “huff and puff” sort of singer, one of those singers where you can hear him reaching to get his next breath in. It doesn’t bother me, I actually kind of like it, but some people don’t like that.
MANOWAR TA TOCANDO ESSE HINO PELA EUROPA! Ontem eles anunciaram um show em SP para setembro, será a chance dos brasileiros escutarem essa composição ao vivo FINALMENTE!✊🏼😭
Lione has a beautiful voice and can sing very well, but Eric Adams is the soul of Manowar, he knows how to be evocative and aggressive, in my opinion he is one of the best metal singers of all time
Fabio es mi favorito pero siento que este enfrentamiento es una total ofensa en contra de estos dos grandes vocalistas que si bien son de distintos tiempos los dos tienen un potencial vocal inigualable...no entiendo porque indisponer a unos contra otros haciendo esto, son dos estilos distintos de canto y de genero....Fabio lo hace increíblemente manejándolo en su estilo lirico y versátil. Mis respetos a estos dos maestros vocales, pero me desagrada que hagan un VERSUS entre ellos...…mas bien hubieran puesto tributo a manowar y ya.
Así como Rhapsody en su momento homenajearon a Manowar con este cover (no olvidemos que, aunque hoy quizá lo niegue Luca, Manowar y Helloween fueron las máximos influencias de Rhapsody) yo pretendí un homenaje a ambas versiones en esta comparación, pues adoro a ambas bandas. No es un ¨versus¨ en términos de oposición o competencia sino una puesta en común donde ambas versiones se enriquecen dialécticamente. Es muy triste que haya personas que no lo tomen así, pero no hay problema, no todos entienden la dialéctica.
Понравился мне Фабио, сильный голос, техника, распевность - всё при нём. Да и кавер в целом очень даже не плох. Конечно, я буду предвзятым, однако Manowar лично для меня лучший - и вокал и инструменталка, а Фабио с компанией, тоже молодцы, хотя и некоей Хелловинщиной отдаёт (в хорошем смысле).
nessa música em específico Eric vence, mas contando todas as obras já interpretadas por Lione ele é superior, até por ser mais versátil. Fato é que são dois dos melhores cantores da história.
The issue with Fabio is the pronunciation. I understand that people loke to make the excuse that foreign singers get an excuse to not pronounce the lines the right way but I don't buy that. Some vowels are much harder to sing when exaggerated. It's why Eric is the greatest. Nobody can hit his notes with the same resonance that he can. A great amount of this is due to his commanding pronunciation. Fabio is a good vocalist and singer but nobody can touch Eric. Sorry...
Most metal listeners are not native speakers (i.e. american) anyway. So it only becomes an issue when covering US bands, or maybe classic english bands like Maiden and Priest.
Este tema, es maravilloso... Por erick, insuperable... Atrás viene lione... Es maravilloso vocalista... Pero cada uno a lo suyo cabros.... Lo importante es que tenemos vocalista joven para rato... Los viejos se nos irán, aunque no queramos... Y ahí entran las nuevas generaciones
Eric Adams' version is way better than Fabio's. It has a Clash of metal in The melody that is the most significant trait on the same. A melody dedícated to metal without the metal Clash is unconceivable... and that is a profound respect for those who have died by metal during history. Also the final part as a hard-rock/heavy metal parte is terrific. Positive things on Fabio's version are. Louder in epic parts as in The middle. (Original was almost in silence when Say "the Clash of other falls" and You Hear an echo.) And use of the instruments as sounds of flute, goes good. Use of various voices at the beginning and in The end rather than the simple "ah...oh.." of a synth. The effect in The last bridge is interesting too... I remember a song on Rhapsody called "when demons awake" in which Fabio sings a part in left speaker, and a part in right and it is a well-made change. But without a single metallic sound in Fabio's version (of a sword, or just a hammer hitting a metal) it was like this melody could have been whichever and it would have been the same. Because Lost the target. It's like a poetry to the sword and battle. I mean... For example: If this melody had been "The gods Made heavy metal" it would have been a better version with all they Made. Both versions are good but original reinforce battle idea and they reason I prefer it.
I understand you perfectly, anyway Rhapsody did not intend to reissue the essence of heavy metal (which Manowar has done so well on his best albums) but to take it to its own playing field. THANKS FOR COMMENT.
Pues fabio tiene muy buena voz pero Eric es el verdadero poder de manowar le da un toque muy especial a las rolas del verdadero power metal viva por siempre Eric Adams y manowar
JOEY DEMAIO SAID ONCE TO DIO: "YOU WROTE THE BOOK OF METAL, WE JUST READ IT". AND THAT'S TRUE, BUT IF DIO IS (AND HE IS!) THE GOD OF HEAVY METAL, ERIC ADAMS IS THE ABSOLUTE PREACHER, NO ONE LIKE HIM, THE BEST! HIS VOICE CAN BE SOFT AS THE WIND AND POWERFULL AS THE THUNDER!!! HAIL, HAIL, ERIC ADAMS. HAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT HOW THIS COMPARISON WOULD HAVE BEEN IF THE SONG HAD BEEN "DEFENDER"?
I and many others loved that album and were disappointed the *TTOS" line up didn't record another album. It remains a unique standout in Manowar's discography.
Ahora, valiéndome de los rudimentarios diccionarios de internet, intentaré responderte (lo haré en español, espero lo entiendas). Es un honor total para mí que alguien comente en uno de los videos del canal en ruso, muchas gracias. No coincido en que "Todo el mundo" sea "Bueno", pero esto puede ser un error de interpretación de mi parte hacia lo que verdaderamente intentaste decir, me disculpo si es así Gracias por comentar.
You that choose Eric Adams mostly US or old school heavy power metal fans, and you that choose Fabio Lione mostly new generation of European power metal and its cross genre like symphonic or melodic power metal. So please do not choose or judges coz your opinion surely biased, please quiet and just enjoy good power metal.
Fabio Lione is a great singer but I think he sounds a bit too much "pretty boy" for my liking. I'll have to go with Eric Adams. He just sounds more manly.
Eric Adams is one of the greatest Metal vocalists of all time
Yes, He is a legend.
He is the greatest. This song isn't the best example of his prowess
@@mikecotoia7613 The triumph of steel it's a legendary album, but it doesn't have the best production (especially on drums and vocals)
@@mikecotoia7613 it's a very good example!
yes very good metal vocalists eric adams l like john bush and blaze bayley
I've followed ERIC for over 40yrs absolutely GOD LIKE 👍
Fabio is fabulous, but Eric is IMMORTAL!
I'm italian and I love Fabio Lione's voice. After listening this comparison there are no doubt: this song was written for Eric Adams only. Despite the sound production there's no doubt that Eric Adams is, probably, the best epic singer of the wholetime!
Really powerful voice and deep inerpretation.
Eric Adams is also Italian. His real name is Luis Marullo;
Nobody beats Eric, ever. A fantastic tribute, however. Well done to him.
Eric has an aura of legend to which Fabio is just getting there (in my opinion they are both already legends)
I will put it this way.. Erick singing is like seeing Conan singing, and Fabio, singing its like seeing Aragorn singing.
😂 That's a perfect description
Don't ofens Aragorn. He is much better.
Fabio has nothing to do against the allmighty Mr Eric Adams King of Metal himself
Eric and Fabio should definitely do a song together in the future. Two legendary voices in the Metal industry. I wish Ronnie was still alive to do a song or two with Fabio or Eric. If that would have ever happened that would be as epic as you could get. Rest In Peace Ronnie
Beautiful dreams! I wish it could make it out, but......

I don't agree that Fabio is a stereotypical Power Metal vocalist.

Agree 1000%. Fabio sounds better in the chorus than in the verses, his vocal skills shine there.

O Eric tem mais de 60 anos mas ainda canta pra krlh, conseguindo atingir muitas notas altas.
Is true (Trve jaja) Fabia has 20 years less than Eric.
Erick Adams the best, for heavy metal we will die 🤘🤘🤘
Yea, he is clearly have a classic heavy metal style. Of course, he is a reference.
Eric has more singing balls than any other heavy metal singer.
Eric combines a very manly baritone voice with some of the best screaming in heavy metal history. Fabio worked in other regions.
Hands down!
I love both version. Fabio did the cover justice.
MANOWAR TA TOCANDO ESSE HINO PELA EUROPA! Ontem eles anunciaram um show em SP para setembro, será a chance dos brasileiros escutarem essa composição ao vivo FINALMENTE!✊🏼😭
Fabio has a great voice, but in this case it's more like "we have Eric Adams at home"
One is heavy metal, other is power metal. You can't compare, everyone of them is good in their own way. And that's how should be.
Lione simplismente fantastico, majestoso vocalista sempre mostrando o melhor muito tecnico.
Na atualidade o melho vocal de Power Metal.
¿Tu crees?
Essa versão do Rhapsody, ao menos pra mim, é a definição perfeita do que é o Power metal!
Com certeza o Fabio Lione atualidade é o melhor vocal de Power Metal.
Não
true
Lione has a beautiful voice and can sing very well, but Eric Adams is the soul of Manowar, he knows how to be evocative and aggressive, in my opinion he is one of the best metal singers of all time

Eric Adams is my favourite metal -singer,his voice is sharper than the double edge Wilkinson blades 🤘🤘🤘
Jajaja gran analogía.
Misa nakobi 😜. Fabio my darling 😍is the best
Rhapsody= A Hobbit with his Pan Flute.
Manowar = Blood, bodies, Thunder, steel....
You can't compare... Eric is a screamer, Fabio is a total opera singer who sings rock.
Rock? 🤭🤭
@@yansetiawan3748 Yes Rock. It's not jazz, or classic, or blues, or pop, or rap, or woogie boogie, or whatever else than Rock!
Rock? Power metal querrás decir, y Fabio si es un "gritón"
He is really good...but feels far far away from Eric...Eric is one of a kind 💪💪💪💪💪
Both were awesome....Lione had put your style on the great song.

отдаёт Хелловинщиной, согласен, но только на припеве)
FABIO LIONI SEM DÚVIDA
Lione is a power metal god, incredible
Don't know, who Fabio is, but respect. It sounds fucking damned good. Stay metal \m/
Idk who Eric is . Only Fabio i know him
I don't who *I* am...

Eric Adams forever

Disculpa, ¿A qué te refieres?
Las bandas epicas morirán, me refiero a los músicos , pero mientra existan vocales, que perduren su música es genial, a eso voy
Two of my favorites
Very good! But Eric is my man!💜🖤
Oh! 예. Yes!!!
First is R.J.Dio
Michael Kiske
Bruce Dickinson
Eric Adams
Good list, I own albums by all of them but Eric & Kiske are my top 2 in that list.
el mejor tributo que es escuchado,muy buena esa voz 👍🏻
¿Hablas del Cover de Rhapsody? si, totalmente, es magnífico.
No contest Eric Adams takes the win by far.
Hell yeah I love your music 🎸🎶🤘❤️
Manawi teh Manowar vocalisna Masih Eric Adam, Gening tos di gentos ku Fabio Lione ( janten mirip Hallowen )

I dont think Fabio even comes close to the power Eric have in hes voice.

Creo que técnicamente Fabio no es tampoco perfecto.
@@samagnara No está diciendo que sea perfecto, simplemente que es más versátil
Fabio,the best on the earth.

kkkkkkkk

Respect to Fabio but Eric is the most powerfull voice of heavy metal,only Harry Conklin (Jag Panzer) is close to him
I like The tyrant (especially in Titan Force) but Eric is better, other level, in my opinion.
Fabio Lione, la mejor voz de toda la historia.
Fabio Lione 🤘🏻🔥
Eric Adams, Mickaël kiske, kai Hansen, Tobias Samet have the best voices in power metal history 😉
