Oooh yes. This is it. Queen of Rain by The Blue Ninja, a cover that I, ThunderBlade, asked him to do long time ago, as it was my very favourite song in the mid 90's and still is one of the very best of all time, I keep returning to it. And he, The Blue Ninja, did it on the C64 and SID... and by doing so, he did something that I am eternally grateful for.
I planned to use it in a very special release, which never made it to daylight though. The Blue Ninja kept the tune sealed for a long time until releasing it - thanks for that aswell, but I am glad that it is available for some time now to the world and all you SID lovers out there. | User Comment Submitted by Jak T Rip on 22 March 2009
One of the greatest covers ever. I have known it for a long time already... With Queen of Rain, Roxette has made a song that nobody I knew liked much at first hearing. But now, after months and years, this becomes one of the tunes I would repeatedly hear, Thunderblade will agree. I have no idea where this magic comes from, but there is magic in this. It is so intensely melancholic and deep, but not helpless, still positive.
I had to laugh reading dalezys comment. | User Comment Submitted by Intensity on 19 February 2008
Just a wonderful tune, melancholic, feelingful, just what I need, to crawl into the bed and start to dream of better times... Thumbs up! | User Comment Submitted by Xiny6581 on 12 February 2008
Oh yeah now I know where this "cover" is from :) Should have realized the typical Roxette signature. | User Comment Submitted by saehn on 2 February 2008
Great tune! Really feels like good music that just happens on a C64, instead of merely a good C64 song. Peaceful, positive. | User Comment Submitted by Hate Bush on 31 January 2008
if it wasn't for somehow overused main theme, this would end up in my top 3 for sure. very emotional. dancing with tears in my ears. | User Comment Submitted by jailbird on 31 January 2008
Quoting dalezyEDIT: i initially commented on the wrong tune. =)
Interesting, I did exactly the same thing this morning =)
I like this kind of melodic, slow stuff. Would be perfect for a contact note if I'd still swap :) | User Comment Submitted by dalezy on 31 January 2008
EDIT: i initially commented on the wrong tune. =)
anyway, this cover isn't too bad either. the slow pace makes it lack energy though. | User Comment Submitted by chatGPZ on 31 January 2008
