Lookin’ Out My Back Door

I Children Of Bodom sono famosi, oltre che per aver caratterizzato un nuovo sottogenere nell’heavy metal, per le molteplici cover; non si tratta sempre di tributi a fonti di ispirazione, ma in alcuni casi a spiritosi rifacimenti. Ecco un esempio:

Creedence Clearwater Revival – Versione originale

Just got home from Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy!
Got to sit down, take a rest on the porch
Imagination sets in, pretty soon I’m singing,

Doo, doo, doo, Lookin’ out my back door

There’s a giant doing cartwheels, a statue wearing high heels
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn
A dinosaur Victrola listening to Buck Owens

Doo, doo, doo, Lookin’ out my back door

Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band
Won’t you take a ride on the flying spoon?
Doo, doo, doo
Wond’rous apparition provided by magician

Doo, doo, doo, Lookin’ out my back door

Tambourines and elephants are playing in the band
Won’t you take a ride on the flying spoon?
Doo, doo, doo
Bother me tomorrow, today, I’ll buy no sorrows

Doo, doo, doo, Lookin’ out my back door

Forward troubles Illinois, lock the front door, oh boy!
Look at all the happy creatures dancing on the lawn
Bother me tomorrow, today I’ll buy no sorrows

Doo, doo, doo, Lookin’ out my back door

Children of Bodom – Versione country post moderno

AGGIORNAMENTO DEL 03.11.2012
Non so se posso vantarmi di aver ispirato i Bodom in persona, fatto sta che successivamente è stato girato un video che fa il verso a quello originale (di cui solo ora scopro l’esistenza):
