It's #FridayMetalCovers time!

Italian black/death metal outfit Graveworm love themselves some covers, and I personally collect covers of this one Bonnie Tyler track, so this is a perfect combo.

Graveworm - Holding Out For a Hero
YT: youtu.be/mKVCOAVJiyU
Invidious: inv.in.projectsegfau.lt/watch?

(Also, their cover of It's A Sin is infinitely better than Cradle of Filth's effort, but we can get to that next week.)

@HauntedOwlbear I am NOT really into heavy metal, but I like SOME .. to be honest I think this 'Graveworm' song sounds .. chaotic .. to say the least .. I "relaunch" with "a better cover of a better song" 😎

@gilesgoat I am always 100% here for your MLP themed cover deep cuts. 💗

@HauntedOwlbear Unfortunately MOST of the "good stuff" is no longer present on YT I suppose cause (C) strikes or such 😢 I can't find any more my favourite "MLP Vs Rammstein" by Ringlet.

@gilesgoat boooo. Hopefully its mirrors somewhere out there in the world.

@gilesgoat That's a really great cover. I'd kind of slept on Lizzie Hale's amazing vocal range until recently, and this cover is new to me!
