AS I DIE - an instrumental PARADISE LOST cover

[@henrikstomsjo5613]

As I die... Stare as eyes uphold me And wait to see right through And curse me... The love has crippled you Shadows haunt the night Burning my disguise Reaping through the truth Life becomes untrue Sin the last diversion My fate will be untouched Dismissed now The anger of a fool Shadows haunt the night Forgive me as I die Taking a chance And take what you gain My soul it has no price Total release is out of harms way Until I can decide You punish me, can't you see I'm not real

[@TavoElBilly]

One of my favorites songs from Paradise Lost!

[@j-venom616]

Mine too! One of the big 90's hits for sure!

[@AlienorchestraNetoslo]

Great Paradise Lost song performed! I’d say my favorite.. you nailed it !!!

[@j-venom616]

Thank you good-alien-Sir-master!

[@timlehman1323]

Love your covers. You're an awesome musician. Your videos have helped me learn to play songs that I really like and want to play. Glad we have similar tastes in music. Keep up the fantastic work... Cheers!!!

[@j-venom616]

Thank you so much man! It really warms my heart to hear that someone enjoys my work in any way. -And even better if someone gets some useful info out from my videos, but please note that I learn the stuff by hear so the way I play might be different from original. And also I improvise a lot around on drums when it comes to fills and on guitar when it comes to solos. :) Anyway, thanks again! Really appreciate your words!

Amazing cover. One of the best PL songs ever

[@j-venom616]

Thank you so much for checking this one out! I don't know about the cover, but indeed, I agree that original one is one of PL's best tunes!

May I visit you to look at your process of recording somewhat?

[@j-venom616]

I operate from my home so my family is around here too, so it is quite difficult arrange schedule to show my study/studio room. Although I think I will do a video of my workflow someday - I think that has been asked several times before. :)

[@Eddison33]

I listen to Paradise Lost all the time (it's my coping music) and I can attest that the cover is amazing! I've noticed transitions are smoother than in the original, and I love it.

[@j-venom616]

Thank you for your kind words!

@@j-venom616 If you enjoyed recording it, you may try "Dying Freedom" or "Weeping words", or the solo from "Hallowed Land". PL is just awesome, and I'd hope to hear more covers like this on the internet)

You make it look so easy! keep it coming!

[@j-venom616]

Thank you so much man! ...To be honest, this is a song that I used to play a lot back in 90's on guitar and later on drums too, so I recorded it today in two hours (includes mixing). I was listening to the Shades of God this morning and thought to give this one a try if I could still remember it. Turns out I do remember stuff after all! :) Happy holidays!

[@Eddison33]

Thanks once again, man, as yours is the only instrumental of this song that I found on YT! I used it to sing the song at a metal karaoke event. It was hard to follow the correct timing, without any lyrics, but at least my voice fits the song) I had fun

[@j-venom616]

Man, that warms my heart a lot! I didn't know you could ask in karaoke bar to put music from YT! In the other hand, that explains why I get views - I guess..

Those devilhorns, why are those? Paradise Lost never did them as far as I know.

[@j-venom616]

My gestures? To me those gestures are just to salute other metal heads, my friends - I do that in the end of pretty much all of my videos. I don't practice any worship on that. Personally, I am not into any religion so most likely I identify as an atheist - I really don't care if someone is christian, muslim or hindu for example - if they are happy with that, let them go ahead. I do my best on believing in myself. :)

@@j-venom616 Thanks for the feedback. I have gone back to Christianity, followin Jesus is the only way. 7 years ago, I went to London just to see David Icke. But he is a charlatan. Only Christ will do. Pls see brilliant ytchannel "End Times Productions"

Hi Janne I've just discovered you channel, incredible works ! I found you while I was looking for some "paradise lost" backing tracks/instrumental versions to record a vocal cover. You know sometimes i also make some songs for fun [ not even remotely at your level :') ] I wonder if I can download your "as i die" rendition and sing over it. Would you be upset for such a thing ? Sorry for contacting you by youtube but I don't have an instagram account :'( Let me know what do you think about Great job however ! Bye

[@j-venom616]

Hi! Thank you for checking out my stuff and also thank you for your kind words! Why would I ever be upset? So yeah, I have only two wishes if you end up using my covers. First is you have to have fun! Second is I wish just a small credit if you end publishing the stuff; put a link to my channel or my original video somewhere into description. Most important thing is to have fun! :)
