I love metal. I can't stand Disturbed, though. Dr Hobbitstein Nov 2019 #9

But he took this song and made a great cover of it. GemDigger Nov 2019 #10

Nah, he made a horribly vapid cover. Dr Hobbitstein Nov 2019 #11

and have 2 daughters. Also, America is in a scary place right now. Sometimes, we all play this song. Ear worm, unsure. Empowering song? Yes, sir.

His voice is like an ear full of hot french fries. Then again, his claim to fame is screaming “ooooohhh-wahh-ahhh-ahhh-ahhh” in the early 00s.

I never heard of them until I heard this cover and then I did a little (very little) listening on youtube. Yes, hot French fries.

It’s teeny bopper metal. And his voice is so grating.

Took a solemn song and made it overly theatrical and emotionless. Over-produced radio rock.

I have not watched the video because I abhor this cover.

And I will play it loudly. Maybe listen to it twice or thrice. Thank you for this. By this, I mean this particular video of it.

I want to say to each his/her own, but.....ugh.

No. I have to draw the line somewhere.

That cover is a crime against humanity. Disturbed itself is a crime against humanity.

"Down with the Sickness" is literally one of the worst songs of all time.

But this to me is the ultimate earworm song:

The first time I heard it, I thought it was catchy enough, but I could take it or leave it alone.

Then a week later, it popped into my head and would not leave until I listened to it again.

And again.

And again.

Then I was totally hooked on it.

Lots of KPop songs are like that, though. Don't get me started on that...
