In order to experience at home a concert alike feeling, one may need some speakers. Well, not any speakers! Some Avantgarde speakers, where purity meets performance!
My mind is blown by this unique horn design, and as soon as my thinking was restored, I was willing to share this information with you!

The other day I was told by a mate that he doesn't listen to a certain kind of (foreign) music because he doesn't understand the lyrics. I think it was his excuse for not liking hard rock or heavy metal. I did not wanted, and I did not ask for, an apologize simply because I do not care what music my mates love or hate (as long as it is quality music), and they don't have to listen to the same kind of music I am listening to.
Anyway, even so, if one wants to understand the lyrics prior to feel the sounds of music, well then, he/she needs poetry, not music. Music is a particular feeling, no matter if supported by lyrics or not. Great lyrics behind the music gives even more power to the music, but the sound is the one which creates the music, not the lyrics!
Listening to Iron Maiden's homonymous album (1980), the sounds of Strange World captured my attention. This song sounds very psychedelic to me. There is another song with a very similar approach on this album: Remember Tomorrow.
More than lyrics, when a song is linked to a good movie, the inner feeling is complete. Searching for an appropriate video for Strange World, I have found one with scenes from Ladyhawke.
When you listen to ManOwaR's "Today Is a Good Day to Die", well then... you really feel like the way they sing it...
But when Godsmack sing it, well, they are right too, only that their sound isn't as appropriate as ManOwaR's when we are talking about "A Good Day to Die". Their version of this "feeling" is rather a fight than an acceptance of the reality (within their lyrics).
It is up to you to decide which sound is more suited for "A Good Day to Die"!
