R.E.M. - Losing My Religion (Symphonic Metal Cover by Alexandrite)

Hi, guys! I'm Alexandra Revontulet and this is my project Alexandrite. We create Symphonic Metal covers and release them in sets. Each set has four songs outlining the same theme. This is the ninth set and it's dedicated to Rock Hits of 1990-1995.
We turned this song into a Gothic Metal piece which is very appropriate in my opinion. Even though according to the author of the song, Michael Stipe, "Losing My Religion" is a song about unrequited love, many people feel like it's about being depressed or losing one's faith. The song is filled with feelings of uncertainty, frustration, despair, and loneliness, which, I'm sure, a lot of us can relate to nowadays. However, no matter how hard our lives can become, I believe that we can always heal our souls through music. Please, take care not only about your physical but your mental health as well!

[@AlexandriteVoice]

Thanks a lot!🖤

[@exafguy]

Still coming back to this. Really love this cover.

[@AlexandriteVoice]

Thank you so much!🖤

Naiz (nice) Don¨t be afraid, fly. Thank You for sharing your Art,

[@AlexandriteVoice]

Thank you! Cheers!🖤

[@anupweerasinghe668]

Man this is great. Never thought I will hear this song in Metal.

[@AlexandriteVoice]

Thanks a lot! To be fair there's quite a few metal covers of this song, I personally like the one by Lacuna Coil 😉

[@davidlomax8838]

Agree, this is a great cover as is the cover by Lacuna Coil, check it out here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/jnWag3uZpZaqrMU

[@AlexandriteVoice]

Thanks!

[@davidnordmeyer513]

Try Leo Morrachioli from Frog 🐸 Leap . Also good😊

[@Wyldone6984]

The first song I EVER learned on guitar. One of my childhood songs, no less. And you blew it out of the park! Just incredible! Every cover that you do is a masterpiece. And I simply can't get enough! It is NOT just a dream!!!

[@AlexandriteVoice]

Wow! I'd say we've chosen a very lucky song then ! :) Thanks a lot!🖤

[@user-pu5pt3ov9o]

Отличный кавер на шедевр,причём бессмертный шедевр,песне уже 31,а её до сих пор помнят,любят и поют,уверен,так будет всегда!

[@AlexandriteVoice]

Рада, что понравилось!😉🖤

[@curtb1240]

Love when I stumble on video's I wouldn't normally search for. Great job! I'll be checking out more

[@AlexandriteVoice]

Lucky you!😉 Thanks!

[@TheSkullPanda]

I'm so glad I found this. What an incredible interpretation, with an incredible voice and perfect theme. This song is a mood for all of us on the outside of the religious phenomenon. What an anthem for pagans, agnostics, Satanists and atheists! Being an aging goth in the dark age of plague and reaction gives few pleasures, but when i woke up realizing i needed this, and saw someone had recently had the same thought, that was just euphoric.

[@AlexandriteVoice]

Glad you like the cover, but you might want research the meaning of the phrase and the origin of the song cause it actually had nothing to do with religion 😉

[@markms7691]

Excellent version of this classic song!!!!!! 😍🎵🎤🎹🎸🥁👏

Thanks a lot, Mark! I hope things are going fine where you are. Stay safe and take care of yourself!🖤

[@IndustrialArtMusic]

relaxing sound

[@eleniblue]

I love female fronted bands.

[@Andy-uf8jq]

They try as hard as male fronted bands

[@AwesomeMetalBands]

I couldn't agree with you more :) Simone Simons (Epica) Liv Kristine (Original Leaves Eyes) Liv Jagrell (Sister Sin) Charlotte Wessels (Delain) Clementine Delauney (Visions of Atlantis) Cristina Scabbia (Lacuna Coil) Mary Zimmer (Luna Mortis) Marcela Bovio (Stream of Passion) Floor Jansen, (Revamp & Nightwish) Nitte Valo (Original Battle Beast) Heidi Parviainen (Amberian Dawn) Just to name a few of my favourite vocalists.

[@AwesomeMetalBands]

@Andy I couldn't agree with you more, I find that a lot of male vocalists sound very similar. (Aka boring) I've been compiling a huge discography of female vocalists and it's so much fun to hear femme fatales of metal...

[@AwesomeMetalBands]

I've seen Epica around 10 times ;) if you don't know Simone Simons from Epica please check out the band..

I'd LOVE to see your drummer let lose! What songs does he get to really shine in, and what's his channel? You guys did great, but that guy...you could tell he was like, "No just...just play the song, victory before glory" lol I'd like to see some stuff where he just lets himself kick some ass, though.

[@AlexandriteVoice]

Thanks, I will pass on your compliments to Sergey. He doesn't have a channel if his own, so stay tuned for more videos here😉

I really like this cover. Though I wish we would have seen the keyboardist. If there was one...

Thanks! There's no keyboardist. I make all arrangements myself. If you'd like to see more piano-centered covers check out some of the newer ones ;)

Not normally a fan of this branch of metal, but chick's got some pipes, and they keep it subdued but violent! I like this. Fuckin' rock on, eh?

The chick also does all the arranging, mixing, filming, editing and reads and replies to the comments by the way, so some respect would be nice, eh?😂 Anyway, thank you 😉

This is how you take a pile of dog shit and turn it into a musical masterpiece

[@AlexandriteVoice]

Hahaha, thanks 😂

[@user-dp3hj4df6j]

You started with a low voice and then it was higher. Probably the whole song should be at higher voice

[@AlexandriteVoice]

The whole point here is to add as much contrast in the vocals as possible, otherwise it's just boring (as it is in the original in my opinion, the range there is less than an octave).

[@user-dp3hj4df6j]

I understood that you wanted to give a contrast. You are absolutely right, in the original it is less than octave, may this influenced my taste. But I really liked the contrast in clothes
