To say they nailed this cover is an understatement. They absolutely destroyed this cover. I mean absolutely massacred. He sang his heart out on this one. He poured his heart and soul into singing this and you can feel the pain.
Oh come man, stop bullshitting us with this "his heart out" thing. This is heavy metal, and by the way, I'm a George Michael fan, but I can honestly say that just right now I've loved this song. Because I could never ever undeestand what was the deal about the original version. Boring and ummature!
George Michael's original is a beautiful song that will never be replaced. But this just gives it a completely different, haunting, epic vibe. One of my favorite Seether tracks.
So true! George Michael's song reminds me about the first time feeling embarrassed before a crush. Seether's version feels like I just horribly and irreversibly messed up my life. And I love it.
I'm an Uber driver had the drummer in my car he wasn't goina say who he was but someone with him had a seather shirt on so i told them how much i love the way they did this song he told me when they did it they never expected it to be on an album I'm glad it was
I agree. I'm and 80s baby so I grew up with the George Michael version and it is beautiful. There's more emotion to this one though. You can feel it. I love it when a song does that.
Nah, this cover could be released 15 more times and still can't be better than the original. Although Seether's cover is the best cover of Careless Whisper.
@Frosty_tha_Snowman Don't understand me wrongly. This cover is insanely amazing, but compared to the original, it is like comparing Rolls-Royce to Jeep or Dodge.
I feel so unsure As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor As the music dies Something in your eyes Calls to mind a silver screen And all its sad goodbyes I'm never gonna dance again These guilty feet have got no rhythm Though it's easy to pretend I know you're not a fool I should have known better than to cheat a friend And waste the chance that I'd been given So I'm never gonna dance again The way I danced with you Time can never mend The careless whispers of a good friend To the heart and mind Ignorance is kind There's no comfort in the truth Pain is all you'll find I'm never gonna dance again These guilty feet have got no rhythm Though it's easy to pretend I know you're not a fool I should have known better than to cheat a friend And waste the chance that I'd been given So I'm never gonna dance again The way I danced with you Tonight the music seems so loud I wish that we could lose this crowd Maybe it's better this way We've hurt each other with the things we want to say We could have been so good together We could have lived this dance forever Now who's gonna dance with me? Please stay I'm never gonna dance again These guilty feet have got no rhythm Though it's easy to pretend I know you're not a fool I should've known better than to cheat a friend And waste this chance that I've been given So I'm never gonna dance again The way I danced with you
The original was such a memorable song, but this is a solid tribute. Very well done! Wouldn't have thought a song like this could be metalized, but hot damn.
I was absolutely blown away by this cover. I found it by accident. I actually didnt know they did a cover. But Im dumbfounded. I would have never thought it would sound good in a metal cover but Seether kills it. Its hard to choose a favorite. The more easy listening side can listen to George Michael and my Metal side can rock out to Seether. Best of both worlds. Love it.
I started listening to Seether after my wife drove my car one day and I had left the radio on Sirius XM and she heard Tonight. She is not much of a fan of hard rock but she loved that song so the next day I bought Holding Onto Strings Better Left To Fray and had my guitar teacher help me learn to play Tonight. I little while later my wife heard Nobody's Praying For Me so I bought Isolate And Medicate and I have been hooked ever since. I think Seether has been the most consistently good band over the last 20 years and I look forward to every new release.
got me over here crying on my living room floor and i'm in a healthy, committed relationship lol i love this so much, music really hits you where it hurts even if you're not hurting!! absolutely incredible cover shaun!!!!
"There's no comfort in the truth, pain is all you will find." This is one of those rare occasions where the cover is better than the original. Still rockin in 2024
Been a George fan for 39yrs, and I think he would have loved this, the pathos and feeling are all there. So impressed with this, best cover of this I've heard.
I'd say Johnny Cash's cover of "Hurt" is up there, but there's a case to be made that it was good enough to reach back in time and retroactively make the original the cover and his the original.
I was skeptical in the opening, but once the lyrics came on, I was in awe Truly amazing, I can hear the feelings in your voice, and the pain in the guitar
"To the heart and mind ignorance is kind, there's no comfort in the truth... pain is all you'll find" Every time it hits my heart like electrocution(((
As good as it gets, original included. For all of us with the taste for heavier music, this is it. George Michael original for all the rest. Everyone happy.
Hell yeah!!! SEETHER is the most over looked & under rated band in history. Shaun alone is so talented. Some singers have some songs that they are able to make you feel what they’re feeling, but with Shaun it’s EVERY song. Not to mention he’s still sooo easy on the eyes😉😉😉. Take care 💜🫂💜
@@BlueSkyLissa Shaun Morgan is a sexy man and I agree, he has this way of feeling in all his songs. I've listened to every song on every album. I do basically every day. My favorite band. Thank you for commenting!!
My 15 yr old son listens to heavy music, he recently started playing guitar & was playing this George Michael classic. I played this & told him to have a listen, now he is addicted to Seether.
This cover is one of the most beautiful ones out there, where I have a love for both the songs at the same level. The essence, emotion is the same but the rendition is different :)
Give Last Kiss by Pearl Jam. It’s incredible. Straight up emotion, one of the best covers of any song I’ve ever heard. A little (a lottle) bit painful though, it is about a man who’s lost his love to a car accident.
This turned a new generation on to George Michael. I'm not a "fan" of Seether, but we owe them a debt for this. They nailed it so hard. Wait and see, this will be covered for decades. The lyrics will never age.
"There's no comfort in the truth, PAIN is all you'll find!" - Always hit me hard.
George Michael wrote it when he was 16-17. I like this cover, even though it's so different from the original.
@@mindyengledow6860 besides Johnny Cash's Hurt, this is the only cover I like more than the original.

agreed. Nora Jones "Black Hole Sun" is pretty awesome too. More haunting then awesome really. its live and amazing.
Lets not get carried away
Check out Foo Fighters Darling Nikki
Almost as good as Disturbed's cover of The Sounds of Silence!

My only argument to this is Pearl Jam's cover of Last Kiss
Damn right; keep jamming bro 🤘🏻💯

😂
You guys r so lucky
I love this cover. One of the few songs where I love both the cover and the original on the same level
Almost. I do like this cover a lot but I was like 13 when Careless Whisper/GM came out. He was so passionate when he sang that song.
Right!?
No lol 😅
Tbh I find the feeling of sadness deeper in this cover than to the original version & it’s kinda rare for me to prefer a cover
Don't listen to Smith and Myers then, you will prefer the cover to the original of many songs you love.
@@Grand_History no one asked you, you don't even know good music
@@Grand_History This isn't metal. Also, your channel is trash. Let me help your ratios out. 😉

George Michael’s original version is a message. Seether’s version is the rage behind the message

Well said!
I agree. I'm and 80s baby so I grew up with the George Michael version and it is beautiful. There's more emotion to this one though. You can feel it. I love it when a song does that.
i just lost my closest friend last week, she would have been 31 today, this song has a new meaning to me. RIP Bunny...
Sorry for your lose.
EXQUEEZE ME MY MUM DIED AT 30 AND IS SUPPOSED TO BE 31..?!
Better than the original. The grit in his voice is just so good. Got to see him perform this live.

Fading out is underrated as hell. Makes you feel like the song is still plays out here somewhere
@hankfm5136 I agree. You rarely hear it
I feel so unsure
As I take your hand and lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies
Something in your eyes
Calls to mind a silver screen
And all its sad goodbyes
I'm never gonna dance again
These guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should have known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
Time can never mend
The careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you'll find
I'm never gonna dance again
These guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should have known better than to cheat a friend
And waste the chance that I'd been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you
Tonight the music seems so loud
I wish that we could lose this crowd
Maybe it's better this way
We've hurt each other with the things we want to say
We could have been so good together
We could have lived this dance forever
Now who's gonna dance with me?
Please stay
I'm never gonna dance again
These guilty feet have got no rhythm
Though it's easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
I should've known better than to cheat a friend
And waste this chance that I've been given
So I'm never gonna dance again
The way I danced with you

If, by chance, you do not like this version or the original, you are not human.
RIP George Michael.

If you don't accept other peoples preferences, you not a human.

I’m gonna pretend I didn’t see this comment. 😊
as a tenor saxophonist, Careless Whisper is a song that sounds best on guitar
As an alto saxophonist,... I agree. But we do love it on the saxophone😈

Ladies and gentlemen, THIS is how you do a cover

One of the best covers I've ever heard. You can feel the emotion with the line "Pain is all you'll find"
All of the careless whispers are great
This cover is the best. It's the closest cover to the original.
The best cover in the history of covers.
Nah, the best is "The Sound of Silence" covered by Disturbed. This is in 2nd place.

I'll be completely honest. The guitar at the start got me giggling, but the moment the vocals came in, I got goosebumps!
