René Shuman Rhythm Of My Heart 1986

[@Heraclitean]

Endless kudos to Rod Stewart for showing the world what this song could be.

[@dougreed2257]

And RUNRIG, who's version I believe to be better than Rod's, just my opinion🤔😊

[@MVR326]

Stewart's arrangement is a grand and dramatic rock milestone. The use of the bagpipes and the men's chorus singing back up is nothing short of amazing.

[@Schneefernerkopf]

Great song!

[@eminalan3551]

Without the Internet, we will not be able to listen to the original.the original is gorgeous

[@juliusnepos6013]

Yeah

[@rockstar450]

Man how did he make this song feel so empty and soulless. I’m not the biggest Rod Stewart fan but his version is magestic and feels like it came from a true vet

[@juliusnepos6013]

Yeah, that is because René's singing is too styled after Elvis Presley's. Afterall he was an impersonator and even now, he leads tours to Graceland. But for me, some parts of the instrumentals here are great

[@Dicktwins]

Real nice

[@mikeg6311]

Today I learned that this is the original.

[@thwiftlythwept7023]

the original recording is not always the best lol

[@PNL_King]

I like rod Stewart's version better, but the originals always have a special feel.

[@marrson6249]

Until today I believed Rod Stewart has written that song. :-/

[@lightninggaming476]

he cant write to save himself

[@rockstar450]

Wow...how did the song writers feel when they heard a dark song about an old Vet be taken up by this guy over-singing and empty arrangement

[@winstonsmith3370]

I had no idea Nicolas Cage had a singing career

[@dive2poker]

Still laughing about this one...

[@ElvarMasson]

I was thinking the same (or similar); Nicolas Cage meets Rod Stewart 😃

[@juliusnepos6013]

Lol!

[@vinaymulukutla358]

Total different feel with the song here. It's not bad but I'm too used to Rod's version

[@kathleenabbu8553]

I respect the original but Rod Stewart's version gives another feeling.

[@sundet81]

In the words of the song's composer, Marc Jordan: "Years and years ago there was a Dutch Elvis impersonator who recorded Rhythm of My Heart and it was just gawd awful".

[@Karin-]

Best version still Runrig

[@jamesscott3016]

Runrig did this best

[@rockstar450]

James Scott fuck no! Rod’s version has so much better vocal performance hand emotional production

[@alanromaine2566]

Agree!!

[@biswaborkakoty]

👍👍Original is good but Rod Stewart made it better keeping the original tune. Rene should be equally credited as Rod Stewart or maybe more...

[@thelosthighlander3373]

Try Runrig's version... the best ever... vocals by Donnie Munro..... awesome!

[@UnimatrixOne]

Nice try. But no one - NO MAN - beats good old Rod!!!

[@DummyBowie]

Rod Stewart Covered this

[@alfderbabybenz7092]

Better song then the original. And sadly not on Spotify

[@roblieverdink1108]

this is the original.

[@juliusnepos6013]

@@roblieverdink1108 yes

[@retrolovers9579]

rod stewart cover is way better

[@ihasmdb389]

The english version of dame da ne

[@juliusnepos6013]

Lol

[@andreasmainik9200]

Rod Steward drives around the world with this performance since at least one year. kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJWoZHqXjN-Abq8. In the same time a lot of things had happen in the world but the statement is still the same?! It would more honest to use own songs for such propaganda (and not one of Marc Jordan. BTW: What is Jordan thinks about it). It would be also nice if Sailing can escape this fate (author Gavin Sutherland).

[@mikeg6311]

This is just awful.
