Just like the original, this gives me chills. Metal head at heart, but have always been a die hard Prince fan. Thank you for doing this justice! RIP Purple one💜🎵🎶🎼
Absolutely agree. I was a Prince addict - still have the purple addiction. And this was *our song*. So you know If I approve - it's REALLY good, and it is.
@@rasheedthomas1249 - this is one of the reasons why we the fans love you guys. You guys interact with us so much even though you guys all have lives of your own and are just as busy as we are. Much love and respect for you guys.
I 1000% beg to differ lol. There's a Japanese drummer named Junna that takes the #1 spot; you only need to watch one video to convince you, i promise 🙂
HOLY SH$&!!!! I SEEN these guys for the first time 15 years ago I can't remember with who 7Dust maybe ... Damn Non point & 7Dust. I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY THEY ARNT JUST HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEYVE WORKED SO HARD FOR YEARS AND YEARS!!!!!!!!! UGH!!! IM BEYIND WORDS !!! I STUMBLED ON THIS LISTENING TO OLD SONGS OMG!!!!!!STREAM THIS!!!!!!!!!
I just got done seeing them live tonight fucking the best show ever and the only good band there I can’t wait to meet them in January in Battle Creek mi
I want them to come here to Minneapolis and play this cover live!!!! It would be so dope especially since I grew up listening to Nonpoint and Prince obviously!!!
When I first heard this song by Nonpoint I started tearing up 😪 and now watching the video brought more tears Nonpoint sang this song perfectly 🥰 RIP Prince 💜
First song I ever heard from this band was "What a Day" back in 2000. Here we are almost 22 years later and now I hear this incredible cover. You guys have come a LONG way. Thanks for the journey over the years, It's been one hell of a ride!
Robb the drummer... he was so kind to me .. years ago , let me come on the bus and hang out.. i will never forget that... they are the only band that can nail these sacred covers... their old bass player hector was in my friend max's band for years. all great guys
I have been a huge fan of Nonpoint for over 20 years. They continue to amaze me at everything they do. Great cover. I know Prince is looking down an smiling
If you want more covers, they did one of Santana - Evil Ways as an obscure B-side or something that completely kicks ass!! I’ve been a fan for 20 years and still don’t know why it wasn’t promoted as a single or featured on an album, but anyway it’s on all the streaming services and iTunes and their “Best Of” album.
They don't really have a bad song. I have been jamming both bands for years. Yet they still dont come across in the convo when speaking of rock legends.
There is a reason I've been a fan of these guys for 20 years! They continue to grow, adapt, slay live shows, and make amazing music! This video gave me chills! Great job by the whole team, you should be extremely proud of yourselves! ❤
I was skeptical of even presos play because I have so much respect for Prrince but man, you guys did awesome!! If someone had told me that a band was gonna make a Prrince cover in new metal style in 2021 I would have laugh out loud.
This stopped me in my tracks😮😮 I was mumbling to myself about you guys MESSING UP his song. The more I listened the more I loved it. Great job NonPoint.
I cannot wait to jam at a live show with Nonpoint at the helm 🥰 Y’all got some fancy footwork that looks like it might be fun to mimic on the dance floor. Be safe in 2022 and enjoy life 🙂
Also forgot to add Elias vocal are so fucking good ofc when u think about it he’s never sounded bad he’s one of the many singers who still have there voice despite how many years they’ve been doing it
And like most cycles, they repeat generation after generation until someone decides to change. Doves 🕊 and metal blended together perfectly Nonpoint 🎶 🤘🏻
" Wow Very Special Version This Song .. Great Sounds on Power Band Player and Vocal Expression ". .. NonPoint it's My Point. .. So' Good ... ☺😊😉/🎼🎶💙🎵🎸🎵/👍✌👌👏👋
I have been a fan for the better part of 25 years. Elias invited me to sit at his lunch table in the mall before a concert in Rhode Island and he has left an everlasting impact of how kind and good he is. I love the music you guys are great.
I think these guys go the mile for other musicians music. I remember when in the air tonight came out and I was blown away. This is the only prince cover that hits the spot.. bold move fellas. You did it.
I have avoided listening to this,due to my fear of it not sounding like Prince...However,you did it beautiful justice! i should have known you would only improve,as you did with Phil Collins! THANK YOU!
I doscovered you while downloading music with limewire and found the song Bullet with a Name on it and have loved you since. You guys have an original sound yet it sounds familiar. Thank you for continuing! I have gotten married and had 3 children since discovering how bad ass you all are and I am glad to hear new music and a tour. Not sure I can catch a show but I am about to look for a new vinyl from ya'll. Glod bless you and I thank God for your talent. Just amazing.
Yo! I live and breath Prince. I've never heard of y'all, but probably I'm to busy listening to Prince. My hat's off to you guys, you absolutely killed this song!! I loved it and will be checking out more of your music. 🤘🤙
I'm a freak of Prince!!! I have his name and symbol on my left leg!! It's not done....I need to add a quote but the quote is gonna cost me close to a grand....soon as I can keep a job for like 6 months I put aside the cash for the finishing touch of the tattoo
This is one of my favorite songs of Prince. You guys did an amazing job on this. Your vocals was so amazing starting out soft then building it up absolutely amazing I'm sure Prince is rocking out in the great above. I have to leave mad props to the drummer. His energy and the powerful way he plays he definitely showed that trap set who was boss.👋👋👋👋👋💯🔥💓
Complete and total respect for putting yourselves out there and trying the impossible, great job, but this is one of those songs that on the right night, the right crowd giving back the right vib, and with your heart and mind both feeling the love, under those conditions I'm sure it can be done. But The only person able to bring those conditions into the studio has done it and moved on. Nobody will ever lay down a studio version cover that can hold a candle. Nothing personal. Just coming across this by surprise and reading that you tried made me feel more emotion than most songs out today. You guys did that with silence. I hope you understand how powerful that is.
I live in Minnesota and grew up in the same neighborhood as Prince and have met Prince when I was about 10 I am 34 now and I can say you guys did this song right I've listened to a lot of covers and this is by far my favorite
Awesome cover guys!!! It's been a long time since I've seen you perform live in Kansas City! I don't know if Willie gets out to shoot shows anymore and I miss going with him. Thank you being a part of my memories and I hope more will be made someday! Much love and well wishes to all of you!💕
Stoked to see you guys again when u get to Seattle this June. So glad to see your independence, you've had a fan here since early 2000s. I know it's tough but west coast tours are rare for you guys. Loving the new jams.
Always have loved this band not many like them the emotion they put in sevendust and cold are a few that I can say I’ve seen live that you feel the energy from all parts of the the band and all there vocalists are phenomenal
People talk about korn disturbed godsmack how can you forget about non point they are the best I will keep going to see them every time they come near Jacksonville Florida
Man these guys know how to make a cover. Phil Collins and now prince, love both of them. Need to see these guys live again, which I think I will in January ♥️
I love you guys . It is a high bar covering a Prince song but you knocked it out of the park.. WOW.. I have Goosebumps all over !!! Cant wait to see you Live !!
Love this! It is awesome and I know Prince would love it as I met him before he got famous! I would also love to see you guys live again! I love your shows!!!!!
@nonpoint This is the o ly cover of When Doves Cry that I have ever heard that was worth covering. With that being said No one could ever reach the exquisite high standard on this song or any Prince song, thatheset. Not even close. He had the unique ability to combine his silky vocals with his tough as nails attitude and the listener not be able to figure out which was which and kept the music lover engaged 110%. With your version, you went from your silk voice to your version of tough as nails and we were amused but not confused, lol. You did a great job. If the Prince version was at 100, yours was at 40 and everyone else is at 2 and below. I listened and stayed engaged the entire video and I usually know within 2 to 5 seconds if I am going to tune out and turn off. So that's says a lot about how much I enjoyed your version. It had a lot character with your acting abilities. When you were going to switch from silk to nails and your expression changed I was like "whoa, where is this going"?😂👍It was a good transition and we went to a Zach DeLarocha moment. The rock out was good. I was listening to see if you would appeal back to silk in the end to close it out with vulnerability. I wonder what that would have been like🤔👍 I enjoyed it. Good job guys!📺
As a metalhead and also a Prince fan i really like this. This is a great cover. The Purple One would be happy to see that his music travels in genres and that it doesn't stay in one shape and box.
I love this band, they literally helped me get through a lot of bad times in my life. Bands like Nonpoint don get the recognition that they deserve. This band truly does have a gift. Thank you Nonpoint for the music. #respectandlove
I remember you guys having the Facebook poll asking which cover you should do next. This is the only song I voted for, but I could have sworn it had been eliminated, because that's when I lost interest and quit paying attention altogether. I'm glad you decided to listen to me instead of the majority. I wouldn't steer you wrong. I knew you guys would kill it on this cover and you did not disappoint. How about Black Sabbath's "Hand of Doom" next?
@@Jasonzeilstra Hmm. Weird. I distinctly remember the disgust and disappointment I felt when I saw it had been eliminated by some incredibly popular but kind of crappy song I don't care for, but I can't remember which. Seems it was something like, but not necessarily, Metallica's "Nothing Else Matters", but obviously I'm mistaken, it's just strange because my memory of those feelings is pretty vivid. I'm an INTP on the Meyers-Briggs personality assessment; which, if you're not familiar, means I normally display all the logic and emotional range of Spock, from Star Trek so feelings tend to stand out in my memory, being somewhat less common for me than they are for most. Why would a FB poll to pick a band's cover song cause a strong emotional response in such a person, you might ask? You're one of my favorite bands, and this is one of my favorite songs. The prospect of you covering it got me a little excited, apparently. Shame on you for making me feel feelings. I forgive you though, I know you didn't do it on purpose. Due to the discrepancy between my memory and the actual events that transpired, I'm forced to operate under the assumption that I've been Mandela effected into some alternate universe where people have better taste in music and I just want to say thank you for whatever role you guys played in getting me out of that hellhole.
@@williamparrish5002 I know what happened now. This was a contest across ALL our social media so if you only saw Facebook then you are probably correct. I do believe it was edged out by Nothing Else Matters on Facebook. But across all our socials it was overwhelmingly When Doves Cry that won.
@@Jasonzeilstra yeah, I'm pretty anti-social in general, but media especially, so yeah, I would have only seen the FB thing. When I saw the preview of your latest reply on my desktop it cut off midway through the word "across". l figured you thought me insane you were going to tell me it was a contest across the entire multiverse and When Doves Cry won in an overwhelming number of other realities to console me in case I was the dangerous kind of insane. If you think about it, that pretty much is what happened, if on a somewhat different scale. I think my phrasing makes it sound cooler though, so if anyone else hits you with this question, feel free to explain it to them my way if you want to. LOL Regardless of how it came to pass, I'm glad it did and that I got to hear it, whether extra-dimensional travel was involved or not. You guys did a great job. Thanks for taking the time to clear up that confusion for me, that was really cool of you. I know not every "rock star" would do that, but you're humble and down to earth and I appreciate people like that. You guys are awesome, keep it up. For real though, put Hand of Doom in the next poll and I'll even log into Myspace so I can vote for it twice.
I just heard this.And I have to give credit where it’s due.Bravo gentlemen,It’s my favorite version I’ve ever heard…(Aside from the original)lol.Keep killing it,It’s a blessing to hear!More covers in the future hopefully!!🤞🏻
🔥 You guys have been k××lig it for so many years. Had the pleasure of seeing you in Providence many years ago! (Though I'm a Masshole). I hope to catch another concert up here in New England. 🤘
I’ve been following you guys since I first heard What a Day on KROCK in Syracuse NY, managed to catch four live shows. This helps cement your guys even further as one of my favorite bands of all time.
I have loved this song since before I heard "What a day" for the first time over 20 years ago. Then there was "In the air tonight." Now I am sure this will be on repeat for a long while! Thank you Nonpoint for always being awesome!

Just stumbled on this today. Not sure why it didn't show up in my feed sooner and why this doesn't have more views... Come on TH-cam get it right!!!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥, the band is great but the singers overall cadence is so insanely good on this track it overshadows everything.
Those grey eye brows are making me feel old.
He still has it tho, dude has the voice of an angel, the scream of a banshee, and can rock my 🌍 ne gd day😂
Just like the original, this gives me chills. Metal head at heart, but have always been a die hard Prince fan. Thank you for doing this justice! RIP Purple one💜🎵🎶🎼
I have Prince's name and his symbol on my leg!! It's not quite finished!!! I need about 600 bucks to put a quote under the symbol
Prince was not metal music, but Prince was 1000% metal.
Absolutely agree. I was a Prince addict - still have the purple addiction. And this was *our song*. So you know If I approve - it's REALLY good, and it is.
I'm with you on this one. Total metal head but can't deny Prince kicked it too
This is awesome!!! and I am a Prince fan but love my metal flipping awesome🎶💯🎸
I've always liked this band. Not sure why they aren't more popular. The man can sing.
At first, I didn't like it, but as I kept listening, I found myself getting reeled back in and loved it. Very Ballsy song to cover.
Because it takes like 1:30 mins top kick in lmao.
It takes a lot of cajones to dare to cover a Prince song. He truly was a legend in the world of music. Nonpoint- y’all did a good job on this.
No shit
Chris Cornell did an AMAZING cover of Nothing Compares 2 U!
Thank you
@@rasheedthomas1249 - this is one of the reasons why we the fans love you guys. You guys interact with us so much even though you guys all have lives of your own and are just as busy as we are. Much love and respect for you guys.
35 year Prince fanatic.
......
I don't hate it.
That's saying something because the mans was a tough act to follow.
🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸
Nonpoint believe it or not is new to me. If I could vote for MY band of the year, its FN Nonpoint. Thanks for the tunes
There isn't another drummer who makes it look more fun to be playing.
I beg to differ
th-cam.com/video/6DVbt5W-DNc/w-d-xo.html
I also beg to differ, this guy could make hot cross buns look like fun ❤️🥁
th-cam.com/channels/C6PKfvfG3C5TYNgaR8BjnA.html
um Racy Shay
Who's this drummer
I 1000% beg to differ lol. There's a Japanese drummer named Junna that takes the #1 spot; you only need to watch one video to convince you, i promise 🙂
HOLY SH$&!!!! I SEEN these guys for the first time 15 years ago I can't remember with who 7Dust maybe ... Damn Non point & 7Dust. I DONT UNDERSTAND WHY THEY ARNT JUST HUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!! THEYVE WORKED SO HARD FOR YEARS AND YEARS!!!!!!!!! UGH!!! IM BEYIND WORDS !!! I STUMBLED ON THIS LISTENING TO OLD SONGS OMG!!!!!!STREAM THIS!!!!!!!!!
I saw them in 2006 with disturbed, stonesour, and flyleaf. It was an amazing experience.
I just got done seeing them live tonight fucking the best show ever and the only good band there I can’t wait to meet them in January in Battle Creek mi
Thanks! See you there.
I want them to come here to Minneapolis and play this cover live!!!! It would be so dope especially since I grew up listening to Nonpoint and Prince obviously!!!
When I first heard this song by Nonpoint I started tearing up 😪 and now watching the video brought more tears
Nonpoint sang this song perfectly 🥰
RIP Prince 💜
Hope you guys do this track justice. You nailed “In the air tonight” so I know you’ll do so again!
First song I ever heard from this band was "What a Day" back in 2000. Here we are almost 22 years later and now I hear this incredible cover. You guys have come a LONG way. Thanks for the journey over the years, It's been one hell of a ride!
Hell ya. Me too on all this
Wow!! I just heard them for the first time right now. I can't believe that, I'm slacking 😎
What a Day and In the Air Tonight were my first foray into this band...Bullet With a Name on It is my favorite track tho🤘🤘
Same. What a day on the radio
same. What a day on a bootleg Ozzfest 2000 CD in East Kazakhstan.
Gave me cold shivers, beautiful guys. Love it.
“In the air tonight” your version has been my favourite song for 14 years.
Yes! I love that song
This is what is sounds like when greatness puts their flavor on a truly timeless classic. Chills listening to this revision. Absolutly loved this.
Is that Head?? Drummer killing it as always!! Sorry I forgot his name
Robb the drummer... he was so kind to me .. years ago , let me come on the bus and hang out.. i will never forget that... they are the only band that can nail these sacred covers... their old bass player hector was in my friend max's band for years. all great guys
Hang out you say? 👀
@@ThePluggggg when I say hang out I mean smoke weed ..
Wow, just heard of this band tonight! That was badass
I have been a huge fan of Nonpoint for over 20 years. They continue to amaze me at everything they do. Great cover. I know Prince is looking down an smiling
Prince hated people covering his songs. He said everyone should only play their own music. He stood stubbornly strong on that opinion
@isaiahmarker407 sucky covers like this are the reason why
Sounds great can't wait until January to see you guys in battle creek Michigan at the music factory
If you want more covers, they did one of Santana - Evil Ways as an obscure B-side or something that completely kicks ass!! I’ve been a fan for 20 years and still don’t know why it wasn’t promoted as a single or featured on an album, but anyway it’s on all the streaming services and iTunes and their “Best Of” album.
They also did In the Air Tonight
Thanks I’ll have to look that up
❤❤❤❤Fkn love it!!!! See ya soon!! If the cruise doesn't get canceled...🤞🤞🤞
Nonpoint can't do no wrong. Nonpoint, and Sevendust doesn't get the recognition that they deserve! Ty, guys for being a part of my early 20s!
They don't really have a bad song. I have been jamming both bands for years. Yet they still dont come across in the convo when speaking of rock legends.
Thoughts exactly! Both of em
You're not wrong my friend. I have bled for the sweated for them and broke an ankle for sevendust. All worth it
Wow why you hating on them with that double negative.
can you imagine a Sevendust Nonpoint tour
All I can say is....WOW!! Seen nonpoint in Lexington,KY , this group definitely dont get the recognition they deserve..
There is a reason I've been a fan of these guys for 20 years! They continue to grow, adapt, slay live shows, and make amazing music! This video gave me chills! Great job by the whole team, you should be extremely proud of yourselves! ❤
Thanks Dawn, it’s fans like you that keep us creating. 🤘🏽🕺🏽
Damn dude I feel old.. been a fan for 20 years as well, didn’t realize it was that long
Love you Dawn, thanks for always reppin
@@EliasSoriano44 absolutely!
Was skeptical at first, but you guys did an OUTSTANDING job on a classic Prince cover tune without butchering it. Nice job!!!
Dammit. Come on nonpoint. Release it now. Can't wait
I CAN'T WAIT!!!! I'm on the way to the Clyde Theatre now!!! Waiting for the next bus
I seriously waited for the breakdown and fuck yesssss thats all i can say this is literally one of the best covers existed till this day
Amazing remake of one of my favorite songs.
I was skeptical of even presos play because I have so much respect for Prrince but man, you guys did awesome!! If someone had told me that a band was gonna make a Prrince cover in new metal style in 2021 I would have laugh out loud.
Right on!!!! Fabulous
We heard about you from Kevin and Brian of Inspiring How UC That 👍
Damn that footwork though at 1:45
Mixed in some Salsa dance move there. Awesome as usual Nonpoint
This stopped me in my tracks😮😮 I was mumbling to myself about you guys MESSING UP his song. The more I listened the more I loved it. Great job NonPoint.
Also the drummer is kickazz. Dude seriously like he's double jointed
I cannot wait to jam at a live show with Nonpoint at the helm 🥰
Y’all got some fancy footwork that looks like it might be fun to mimic on the dance floor.
Be safe in 2022 and enjoy life 🙂
Mannn Bad ass!! 🎸 no music better than rock! The feeling you get when your up there singing I bet is the best.
Also forgot to add Elias vocal are so fucking good ofc when u think about it he’s never sounded bad he’s one of the many singers who still have there voice despite how many years they’ve been doing it
Thanks buddy I appreciate it 🕺🏽🤘🏽
I member when they first came out. U member. Happy to see them going at still. Life goes to fast
I saw this band at Ricochet, country bar in the early 2000s in Ft. Myer. They must have played there 5 or 6 times. They were great every time.
Say them for the first time Saturday in easton,PA and the only thing I can say is HOLY SHIT🤯🤯🤯
Amazing job guys. Looking forward to hanging out with all of you soon.
And like most cycles, they repeat generation after generation until someone decides to change. Doves 🕊 and metal blended together perfectly Nonpoint 🎶 🤘🏻
Nailed it! And this is coming from a Prince fan who still mourns him.
I think that even he would smile at this.
Damn good show!
Bass guitar floor drums are incredible in the car system
" Wow Very Special Version This Song .. Great Sounds on Power Band Player and Vocal Expression ". .. NonPoint it's My Point. .. So' Good ... ☺😊😉/🎼🎶💙🎵🎸🎵/👍✌👌👏👋

Still would’ve love them to cover masters of puppets but what a great cover , cheers to this amazing band
This is still one of the most underrated bands of all time! Been seeing them at the machine shop in flint for seems like 15 years!!
good lord Nonpoint I remember them being a warm and loving band when they played Jokers in Fayetteville NC
This is one of my favorite songs of Prince. You guys did an amazing job on this.

Epic cover song. Just found this. First find of 2022. Hope its the start of a year we needed, like this song
🖤
Kinda new to these guys...by that I mean I only one song....damn....they rock. Great cover.
At 11 years old I was a die hard nonpoint fan.. 24 years later and they're still fuckin incredible.
Bloody awesome cover I think Prince would have loved it
Awesome cover guys!!! It's been a long time since I've seen you perform live in Kansas City! I don't know if Willie gets out to shoot shows anymore and I miss going with him. Thank you being a part of my memories and I hope more will be made someday! Much love and well wishes to all of you!💕
Nonpoint is such an under rated, awesome band. Surprises me when someone doesn't know who they are. Like sorry but who are you? Are you even human?
Cannot wait to see you live again in Ft Wayne! It’ll be the highlight of my year
Stoked to see you guys again when u get to Seattle this June. So glad to see your independence, you've had a fan here since early 2000s. I know it's tough but west coast tours are rare for you guys. Loving the new jams.
Always have loved this band not many like them the emotion they put in sevendust and cold are a few that I can say I’ve seen live that you feel the energy from all parts of the the band and all there vocalists are phenomenal
Awesome cover. Just seen em with Sevendust in Cherokee NC.
Love this band soo much! Self, written, covers, all amazing.... this is definitely on par with 'in the air tonight ' cover....
Well done guys!!!
Wow! The intro was a nice build up, once you guys hooked into it! I was like yeah!!!! Encore!
Turning a Prince song into hard rock is allready hard. To do it and make it sound good. Has to be on point. You all did it here.
People talk about korn disturbed godsmack how can you forget about non point they are the best I will keep going to see them every time they come near Jacksonville Florida
Man these guys know how to make a cover. Phil Collins and now prince, love both of them. Need to see these guys live again, which I think I will in January ♥️
Awesome cover. One of my favorite Prince songs. Glad to have this cover. Awesome job Nonpoint.
I love you guys . It is a high bar covering a Prince song but you knocked it out of the park.. WOW.. I have Goosebumps all over !!! Cant wait to see you Live !!
We love to give the goosies! Thanks y’all
Wow. Great bass , drums, line guitar and vocal. U kick my ears;)
Wow! Honestly... I was blown away by this! Chills like you wouldn't believe!
Love this! It is awesome and I know Prince would love it as I met him before he got famous! I would also love to see you guys live again! I love your shows!!!!!

That’s right.. we work 60% of the time 100% of the time. With real bits of panther!
Yo when did Ezekiel of twd started signing!? Love this main keep it up! I just found like 4 other of yalls songs.
Bad ass. Prince happy today
As a metalhead and also a Prince fan i really like this. This is a great cover. The Purple One would be happy to see that his music travels in genres and that it doesn't stay in one shape and box.
Yea Prince would have enjoyed this
Haven''t been a real steady fan, but heard you from Ozzfest 2001 Sampler, and from all I've heard, Nonpoint has never done a bad song.
We’re only getting older
48 here..
And much rings true, so true
Scream at each other.. scream at ya own self...
I'm almost 50 and going to see them Saturday! They're gonna rock no matter how old I am!
I love this band, they literally helped me get through a lot of bad times in my life. Bands like Nonpoint don get the recognition that they deserve. This band truly does have a gift. Thank you Nonpoint for the music. #respectandlove
Amazing cover fellas and great video Frankie 🤘🏻🕊👊🏻👏🏻
I remember you guys having the Facebook poll asking which cover you should do next. This is the only song I voted for, but I could have sworn it had been eliminated, because that's when I lost interest and quit paying attention altogether. I'm glad you decided to listen to me instead of the majority. I wouldn't steer you wrong. I knew you guys would kill it on this cover and you did not disappoint. How about Black Sabbath's "Hand of Doom" next?
It wasn’t eliminated. It won. Thank you.
@@Jasonzeilstra Hmm. Weird. I distinctly remember the disgust and disappointment I felt when I saw it had been eliminated by some incredibly popular but kind of crappy song I don't care for, but I can't remember which. Seems it was something like, but not necessarily, Metallica's "Nothing Else Matters", but obviously I'm mistaken, it's just strange because my memory of those feelings is pretty vivid. I'm an INTP on the Meyers-Briggs personality assessment; which, if you're not familiar, means I normally display all the logic and emotional range of Spock, from Star Trek so feelings tend to stand out in my memory, being somewhat less common for me than they are for most.
Why would a FB poll to pick a band's cover song cause a strong emotional response in such a person, you might ask? You're one of my favorite bands, and this is one of my favorite songs. The prospect of you covering it got me a little excited, apparently. Shame on you for making me feel feelings. I forgive you though, I know you didn't do it on purpose.
Due to the discrepancy between my memory and the actual events that transpired, I'm forced to operate under the assumption that I've been Mandela effected into some alternate universe where people have better taste in music and I just want to say thank you for whatever role you guys played in getting me out of that hellhole.
@@williamparrish5002 ❤️🤘🏼
@@williamparrish5002 I know what happened now. This was a contest across ALL our social media so if you only saw Facebook then you are probably correct. I do believe it was edged out by Nothing Else Matters on Facebook. But across all our socials it was overwhelmingly When Doves Cry that won.
@@Jasonzeilstra yeah, I'm pretty anti-social in general, but media especially, so yeah, I would have only seen the FB thing. When I saw the preview of your latest reply on my desktop it cut off midway through the word "across". l figured you thought me insane you were going to tell me it was a contest across the entire multiverse and When Doves Cry won in an overwhelming number of other realities to console me in case I was the dangerous kind of insane. If you think about it, that pretty much is what happened, if on a somewhat different scale. I think my phrasing makes it sound cooler though, so if anyone else hits you with this question, feel free to explain it to them my way if you want to. LOL
Regardless of how it came to pass, I'm glad it did and that I got to hear it, whether extra-dimensional travel was involved or not. You guys did a great job. Thanks for taking the time to clear up that confusion for me, that was really cool of you. I know not every "rock star" would do that, but you're humble and down to earth and I appreciate people like that. You guys are awesome, keep it up.
For real though, put Hand of Doom in the next poll and I'll even log into Myspace so I can vote for it twice.
Man is there anything yall cant do? This is beyond awesome. Definitely worth the wait. Hope to see you guys in Ft. Myers again soon.
Thanks buddy. Full transparency I can’t make a knitted sweater. But I can juggle!
@@EliasSoriano44 in the end I think thats all that matters 😆
Curiosity drew me in & I'm glad it did , nice work guys. 👍🕺🎶
I just heard this.And I have to give credit where it’s due.Bravo gentlemen,It’s my favorite version I’ve ever heard…(Aside from the original)lol.Keep killing it,It’s a blessing to hear!More covers in the future hopefully!!🤞🏻
Nice! You should see if Metal Piano Music would collaborate with you. That would sound so cool!!!
🔥 You guys have been k××lig it for so many years. Had the pleasure of seeing you in Providence many years ago! (Though I'm a Masshole). I hope to catch another concert up here in New England. 🤘
Jan 14th we’ll be at Wally’s in Hampton Beach.
I’ve been following you guys since I first heard What a Day on KROCK in Syracuse NY, managed to catch four live shows. This helps cement your guys even further as one of my favorite bands of all time.
I have loved this song since before I heard "What a day" for the first time over 20 years ago. Then there was "In the air tonight." Now I am sure this will be on repeat for a long while! Thank you Nonpoint for always being awesome!
I have always thought this band was badass. Glad there still playing. Always been talented.
