Funny enough... The last time I saw her play this in London, Ontario for her album release... She dedicated it to me. I'm truly so happy for this. 💖

[@robertsnellgrove2664]

Different but beautiful interpretation. Shows Joe and the boys adaptability and skillset with maturing talent shinning through. Pianist and orchestra are just the best also. Brilliant and thanks to all involved. 🤘🎸👏

Emm Gryner, a one-time member of Bowie's band and whose band Trapper opened for Def Leppard nearly a decade ago, singing with the band on a song she used to cover in living room shows across the country..🤍

[@yamgruel8596]

She isn’t a good singer. No natural vocals.

@@yamgruel8596 Not quite true if you knew her story. She can sing in the "classic" sense, but she chose to sing closer to what she felt inside and to give herself a sense of identity.

Ordered the vinyl already - this whole album is absolutely EPIC! Def Leppard was already epic but this makes it even more awesome! Well done!

[@MuppetOne]

What’s the album called?

[@i2really1der]

Oh my God. Exquisite arrangement. Animal had both hard rock and symphonic mixture. But, I appreciate this version.

Good to see Spinal Tap in good shape! I love them, they are hilarious 😂❤

I thought same thing ... this is SUCH a Spinal Tap moment .

[@theelevatepartnership]

I love it when artists turn a song inside out and it be as good (if not better) than the original. Chapeau to all involved in writing, arranging and performing this version 🙌🔥

DEF LEPPARD, you are from another planet 🪐 👏🏻✨🌘 This song, first God, will be a top hit with the magnificent Emm Gryner voice and 🎹 and the talented BBC Concert Orchestra plus this beautiful place. CONGRATULATIONS 🎊 DEF LEPPARD!!! ☄️💥☄️💫🎬🎤🎼🎹🎸🥁🎻

[@yamgruel8596]

No. She isn’t a good singer at all. The song needed a great female singer to accompany him.

[@chrishooker4449]

Such a great band and I love this rendition of the song. Also unusual for them to get much attention in their home country which is a real shame. Saw them live in 1992 and they were awesome, people forget they're actually really good musicians.

Absolutely BRILLIANT. Love seeing Emm Gryner perform this with Def Leppard too! I remember she did a similar piano version on her "Girl Versions" cover album. After listening to the entire "Drastic Symphonies" album I can honestly say this is one of their finest yet.

It didn’t compliment Joe’s voice.

@@yamgruel8596 it? It's a woman singing. But totally disagree with your opinion

@@liquidSpin yes “it” as the vocals (regardless of male or female) and yes, “she” isn’t a good singer. She simply doesn’t have a great voice. It’s facts.

Fair point. They could have mix in a bit more hard rock to it.

Yup all the hipster grunge bands used to turn their nose up at Def Leppard but they all fell apart. Def Leopard are a proper band that stood the test of time.

yes, if you're going to rewrite a classic - make it very different from the original like here.

[@glennboyes4714]

This is Emm Gryner's version and Def Leppard loved it so much they chose to put it in this collection kzbin.info/www/bejne/q3bMdp-Zf9GtaKc

[@Crunkboy415]

Wow didn't know Emm Gryner collaborated with Def Leppard. Emm did a cover version of this about twenty years ago. I know she asked permission of the band to do this song and they were flattered and impressed by this alternate arrangement.

[@robertmayer232]

I absolutely love it. It shows the depth of their talent and how they can roll with the times.

[@andrewdee9482]

Love it, but hilarious & a bit Spinal Tap the Leps famous "stripper" song being sung as a ballad.

[@marcosfarahnagato4886]

I guess I'd prefer to hear a version of this song with the same original tempo and vocals (or re-recorded), but with cellos instead of guitars!
