METAL GEAR SOLID PHANTOM PAIN - Sins of the Father | Live, 1 Take Cover by Stefani Keogh

To all the fans of the game, I hope you liked the couple of references!!! To everyone else - apologies for the confusion!!!
As always to explain - this is a live cover, the vocals and video were recorded at the same time.
This one has been a long time coming and as I mention in the video I could have done any of the many amazing songs from the MGS franchise. The game was sadly not what it could have been and this song was wildly misplaced in game so I decided to give it the attention it deserves.
I hope you enjoyed it, let me know what you think below!
Special Thanks to: / camaro5303
for the amazing Phantom Cigar Time Effect video.
Also - don't smoke kids!!!

I stopped using my account to watch most videos, but i logged back in because i had to applaud. Amazing performance, ma'am.

6:02 the hardest part...even Donna messed it up a bit.....you got it perfectly... well done

[@NostalJuegos]

Is a really hard song. That's why Donna Burke is soooo underrated.

1:41 You're right because Donna Burke is amazing. However, you're cover was still fantastic. I loved it. 😍

[@StefaniKeogh]

She really is! She's a beautiful powerhouse!!!! And thank you!!!! 😊

[@NostalJuegos]

The simple fact that you have dared to sing such a complicated song and you have done it so well is an incredible merit. You have a great talent, it's hard to find someone who comes close to donna burk's level, but you did it :) The ending cost you a lot, but nothing to blame you for because I would have to be reborn 20 times to do half as well as you did. Keep it up, you're amazing.

[@TAREEBITHETERRIBLE]

wow she's so mesmerizing n captivating both when singing n not, glad to see so much love for Metal Gear Solid

Amazing... absolutely amazing... love all the references too! I'm even wearing a MGS tee shirt lol

[@StefaniKeogh]

Haha that is awesome! And thank you 😊

[@michaelaldan6969]

A few years ago i spoke to Donna (and agent) to record a very short video for one of the all time great players in MGSV FOB (metal gear solid V) named Filandrianos...we chatted and she was very forthcoming,...she did record the video which was for a wedding.... and I cant thank her enough for that... (nope, there was no charge!)

[@fabriciogottara3521]

Soooo badasss!! Thank you, this is a masterpiece!

[@liv3vil-Kei]

5:25 that's what you are waiting for btw this is bloody amazing!!! you deserve waay more views with this one. Song suggestions: Calling to the Night (also metal gear, and in my opinion the best song of the franchise)

[@danteespinosa5670]

No words for this, amazing!

[@allensdfw1362]

Okay I am officially in love with your voice!

[@StefaniKeogh]

Oh thank you so much! I haven't done any videos in forever but I'm hoping to get back to it later this year after I've moved house! So any requests?

[@Aleebi]

LMAOO lighting up the spliff to pass the time. awesome!

[@Eatpotatos]

I did not expect her to hit the woah

[@radicaladz]

@StefaniKeogh - there is a fine line when it comes high melodrama and high camp that many Japanese games and cartoons choose to walk, and the Metal Gear series is no exception; Ms Donna Burke clearly understood the assignment when she recorded the original, and you too demonstrate that same self-awareness without tipping the scale into parody, and your technical ability here is exceptional. Well done, indeed. 😊

[@StefaniKeogh]

Thank you so much for such a wonderful comment. And I totally agree. She sells the drama for every ounce of what it's worth and because she believes in it, it makes us believe in it too. I will always be happy to stand in her shadow, she's phenomenal.

[@huangss00]

4:30 LOL, also needs an eye patch

[@StefaniKeogh]

If I ever manage to get around to doing Snake Eater I will definitely get one!!! 😆

[@allensdfw1362]

Chills and goosebumps all over!!!! Oh I love you. That was brilliant.

[@edwards_89]

Probably one of the better versions I've heard! You nailed it 👍👏

[@bennuwa]

Truly a worthy and solid (no pun intended) performance - and the cigar was an amazing touch!

[@lewislewislewislewis]

you lived up to and exceeded the donna burke version. i am in awe.

[@StefaniKeogh]

Oh wow, thank you. That is such a wonderful comment. Donna can definitely sing Heaven's Divide better than I ever will though!!!!!

[@ontuva]

Awesome Stefani!

[@TheStobe84]

The voice is fucking amazing. God damn, how can you get so close to studio stuff? also bringing your spin to it, without breaking the song... Amazing.

[@StefaniKeogh]

Thank you so much, I think I got the balance of the mix right which was luck more than judgement. And I tell you, it was so hard to carry on after the cigar because I could see it still smoking in the corner of my eye!!!! 😂

[@TheStobe84]

[@LeeCassidy]

Bonkers good! I like doing 1 take covers, so I have an inkling how tough it can be to do it all under the gun. You did amazing on the two more heavily autotuned moments in the song. And it sounds like Donna Burke goes a bit falsetto in the "in my heart I just know..." but, but you don't. Sounds much more powerful.

[@MrLouladakis]

Stunning is an understatement!. Is just like the original!.

[@sashs8461]

Holy smokes, stumbled on this while reminiscing on the original. Your theatrics were a nice injection of personality and nod to the source material. Would luv to see you have a swing at something like Ezios Family from AC2. Challenging sure - tho with the way you handled the crescendos here, I'm a believer

[@StefaniKeogh]

Wow thank you so much for such kind words! I'll definitely have to check that song out, as I'm looking to get back into covers this year so thank you for the suggestion!

[@michaelaldan6969]

this is the first time i have...stumbled across this channel...and as a staunch Donna supporter (see comment below) i must say that i have to....well i have to...maybe i just... ok this was superb.... there i said it ! ...your voice matches your looks my lady...both are stunning (and i added this to my playlist, on my channel...)

[@StefaniKeogh]

Ahh thank you so much. I adore Donna too, she is absolutely one of a kind so to be able to do anything close to good when standing in her shadow is such a compliment to me. So thank you, thank you! 😊

Absolutely brilliant! What a wonderful cover! I'd love if you could do Ludvig Forssel's Phantom Pain too, though it might be tough digging out an instrumental for the track...

[@StefaniKeogh]

So I am finally now working on a cover of Phantom Pain! But it's going to be a little different from the original as I wanted to do it a bit more in my style! Not sure when it will be done but definitely by the end of the year!

So I've been on a massive hiatus since a famiy member died, plus moving house and other life rubbish.

Wait, is that without autotune?

[@StefaniKeogh]

Yeah there's no autotune/melodyne on this at all. There's compression and reverb and that's it! (because I'm honestly terrible at mixing so this is the best I can do!) 😁
