2. I’ve Got You Under My Skin - Glenn Hughes (Deep Purple)
3. Summerwind - Geoff Tate (Queensrÿche)

No offense to any of the bands involved, but this sounds like a TERRIBLE idea.

Metal versions of JAZZ classics? If you're doing it to be funny, maybe that will work like Children of Bodom did with Britney Spears.

However, if they're being serious... that's just stupid.

I heard the Devin Townsend track and didn't like it. Nothing against the other singers or their abilities but I really can't see the point of this record.

Bethlehem do a cover of "My Way" on Mein Weg... and as I typed that I realized Mein Weg is My Way in German... the plot thickens...
