Best strato's cover

[Stratofanius]

My vote goes to Bloodstone. Even the instruments aren't so cool, Koti's singing is so masterpiece that I love that song.
Blackout and I Surrender are nice too. Kill the King is good, but not very interesting to me.

I don't know is there any other covers - if is, tell us...

[Jaakko]

"Kill the King" wins easily. It's the only song Strato has ever recorded with real balls in the vocals! "I Surrender" is nice because I was on that gig so it kinda brings back some nice memories and it works well but oh... Kill the King!!!11

TT did a great job on "Kill the King". IMO, his voice improved from the early albums.
TT needs his own band like Kotipelto to sing in--as a frontman. He has still "got it"!

It was released on Father Time single, so not so long after Koti take the vocals. But I agree, he sings great especially on HTL.

I just dont like the song, 'Bloodstone'. so that rules it out.

I liked Blackout though. Timo's solo is waaay better than the original

[Equinox]

I chose Blackout, it was the first cover that I listened to, andit is so darnm powerful! And the solo is...just great!

[Beast_Pete]

It was a tough choice between I surrender and Kill the King, but the King won.

[Mormegil]

Blackout: My favourite. They have made it a Stratovarius-song but still kept the feeling of the original.

Kill The King: You really should be Ritchie Blackmore to play the lead guitars of this well. I don't like Tolkki's singing either. The original is one of my favourite Rainbow songs though.

I Surrender: Great, but I still prefer Blackout.

Bloodstone: Good, but no one can ever sing as well as the Metal God himself, Rob Halford.

TT did a great job on "Kill the King".

But vocals are too quietly, instruments play too loud (what I'm saying )

[Shurik]

Kill The King for me ...

[soulforged the secon]

kill the king kicks ass but i voted for i surrender.......
blackout is nice too....

[antonio]

1) kill the king
2) i surrender
3) bloodstone
4) blackout

but i've always thinked that this cover are not good for strato style

[Twilightsymphony]

Kill the King.

they should cover something more different i think.

But...Fanius, isn't that good? I mean, that's what I like the most.

Vocals are more important

[CottonCandy]

I was hoping Stratovarius would Cover "Fade to Black" but, Sonata beat them to it!

I'd like to hear them do "Stairway to Heaven" and "the House of the Rising Sun".

Some very old Oldies, in other words.

[Stratofanius]

Am I the only one who likes Bloodstone?

[MaFiaBoY]

I'd like to hear them do "Stairway to Heaven"

I second that ! Stairway To Heaven would be very nice with Koti's voice.

I like Bloodstone too, but for me, the concept of the song is....weird.
What do umean by:

[Stratofanius]

Wow. Someone other voted Bloodstone. My hope isn't lost yet

[OceanSoul]

i think kill the king with tt

[kolcer]

For me - Blackout. I think orginal version is better though.
