Got the vision thing? Hmmm . . . sort of.

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

(The second is actually disturbing. Garth Brooks has a lot to answer for.)

The first one suffers from typical Darth Vader vocals syndrome. I wish bands would stop doing that, it's neither clever nor funny nor accurate.

The second is however funny but for all the wrong reasons. It sounds more like Bon Jovi than Bon Jovi do. Somebody should tell Keef.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

second song sounds as it (VT generally) should sound from the beginning.

I thought that in the first clip they nailed the guitar sound really nicely - the vocal's aren't Von's but then no one else's are.

The second one just sounds funny to me. Garth Brooks does a sisters cover. Ha!

Oh dear God it IS Garth Brooks!! Whatever next - Dolly Parton covering Jolene??

What's even more disturbing is the comment from the Deaf Sisters Accociation:

IvchoBrasil I have the original, because I'm great fan of Sisters and have almost all of their albums, but Rhino Bucket's version is great and I can't find it anywhere...
