METALLICA Track Performed On 'Canadian Idol'
- Aug. 17, 2005
|
|
|
METALLICA's version of BOB SEGER's "Turn the Page" was performed by one of the surviving six hopefuls on "Canadian Idol" Tuesday night (August 16).
Rex Goudie received the loudest performance of the night, when he sang the track, according to CTV.ca.
With the microphone stand in tow, Goudie darted in and out of centre stage as he interacted with several of the band members.
"You're stiff as a rock but you roll with soul baby," judge Farley Flex said.
While singer Sass Jordan also called Goudie "the stiffest man on the planet," she appreciated his natural instincts.
"You got the vibe. You got it down Rex, that's the stuff," she said.
Zack Werner called his stage movements "contrived nonsense" but at the end shrugged his shoulders and said, "It's probably not going to matter anyway."
Jake Gold, on the other hand, told Goudie: "It's all about passion and that's what you have."
"Canadian Idol"'s six survivors get to rock out one more time before someone gets the boot on Wednesday at 7:30 p.m. ET on CTV.
(Thanks: Shane Goudie)

I second these comments.... there is no relevance to mentioning Metallica in this. Did anybody even ask this "Idol" whose version they were thinking about?

It says they used Metallica's version of the song, not Bob Seger's version. That's why the title is what it is.

bob seger is slower. metallica is a little faster and heavier. and has a lot more "woah hoes!" and "oh yeahs!" If buddy got up there and was all "oooooh yeah baby!" and did a little headbanging and air guitar, then it was metallica's version.
DO YOU FUCKING UNDERSTAND THAT?

If you're gonna perform a Metallica song on a shitty pop show, don't do any of their shitty post Black stuff, sing something like Whiplash, how's that for unique?

It was the Metallica version which was played by a live band, there was no mistaking the differnece in the two versions. They did mention on air that it was the Metallica version also.

The the theme for the show was classic rock, Whiplash doesn't count as classic rock. You have to admit, to sneek a Metallica song into an Idol contest is pretty good :-) You have to give the guy credit for that.

Actually, old Metallica is played on most classic rock stations now. I mean, it is 20 year old music.

How do you do a cover of a cover? Do you have to be at the nexus of the universe to do it?

BANDS LIKE LED ZEPPELIN AND DEEP PURPLE SHOULD BE PLAYED ON CLASSIC ROCK RADIO NOT METALLICA EVEN IF IT'S 20 YEAR OLD MUSIC PLUS ALL THEY WILL PLAY IS ENTER SANDMAN AND THAT WAS RELEASED 1991. IF YOUR GONNA PLAY METALLICA ON THE RADIO ALSO PLAY TESTAMENT SLAYER AND ANTHRAX. http://www.misterpoll.com/poll.mpl?id=4247719209

Fall from grace happened a long long time ago. Now i wish they would just go away never to return. It even more sad when you look at the begining of their carrer to now. Oh well there are tons of bands more derserving of my respect and attention now. FUCK METALLICA and that shitty music they continue to pimp to the masses.....

They played 'BAttery' in the Hamilton (near Toronto) Classic Radio station..MAn they also played 'Iron MAn' (Black Sabbath) and even (You make a Grown man Cry- Rolling Stones)...
What do you think of that??
I remember on time i was watching CNN doing a live event of one of the funeral for one of the columbine shooting victim and it was a church and they played two songs dedicated to him....IT was 'My heart will Go on' - Celine Dion and 'Nothing else Matters'-Metallica...
How about that, but it would have been cool if they played 'Whiplash'...I agree with that point

They play more heavymetal stuff on that show.. They played Paranoid and more....
Actually those contestants are pretty good..
INXS...ROCKSTAR on Tuesdays and Wednessdays...
I am also happy that most of the contestants who are leading are all Canadians...
Canada the only country where the police will NOT charge you for smoking weed..

I saw it , I turned on the t.v. and that exact performance was on and it was metallicas version it sounded like he was trying to exactly replicate James. It started pretty good but it really sucked he missed some notes and screwed up. Wasn't fun to watch. At first I thought it would be good for people that watch Canadian Idol to get a taste of metal but once he got into the song and started screwing up it ruined it.
