Featured &#8211; among others &#8211; are great versions of the\u00a0Eagles&#8217; &#8220;Hotel California&#8221; and\u00a0Kate Bush&#8217;s &#8220;Running Up That Hill&#8221;, they all get the <b>JORN<\/b> style treatment\u00a0and become powerful and epic, without losing\u00a0their commercial touch. More great classics included are John Farnham&#8217;s &#8220;You&#8217;re The Voice&#8221;,\u00a0Queen&#8217;s &#8220;Killer Queen&#8221;, and two absolute melodic rock evergreen gems in\u00a0Journey&#8217;s &#8220;Don&#8217;t Stop Believin'&#8221; and\u00a0Foreigner&#8217;s &#8220;Rev On The Red Line&#8221;.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p><center><iframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/_AFmJ1Rq1xU\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/center>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<div>The original concept of the album was to create a\u00a0jukebox of radio hits, but to\u00a0avoid leaning too much on the pop side of rock, <b>JORN<\/b> decided to blend the tracklisting with a few more up tempo rock tracks as well, such as &#8220;The Final Frontier&#8221; by\u00a0Iron Maiden\u00a0(&#8220;probably the closest you get to anything commercial with Iron Maiden,&#8221; says <b>JORN<\/b>), &#8220;Live to Win&#8221; by\u00a0Paul Stanley\u00a0(a song which was also featured on the popular television series\u00a0South Park), and a few hard rock classics show up as well\u00a0such as\u00a0Deep Purple (&#8220;Stormbringer&#8221;), Dio (&#8220;Rainbow In The Dark&#8221;) and\u00a0Black Sabbath\u00a0(&#8220;Die Young&#8221;) to complete the mix.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><b>JORN<\/b> says: &#8220;The most important thing was to treat these songs with respect\u00a0for the original versions, my goal was always that the original artist would be honoured and find my version relevant. At the same time my intention was never to compete with the original song and artist, but make it a strong alternative version to enjoy. At the same time it is a well-deserved homage to these artists and bands, who influenced me strongly.<\/div>\n<div>I have wanted to record these songs for quite some time, but was always too busy writing and recording my own\u00a0music to make it happen. Originally I had a list of 40-50 songs I wanted to do, but I had to strip it down to about 15 songs before deciding on the final track list. This means that there are some unfinished business musically, and I will most likely record more of these songs in the future.&#8221;<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Norwegian metal powerhouse Jorn Lande is returning to the game with a new album of covers entitled Heavy Rock Radio.\u00a0 I know what you&#8217;re thinking, &#8220;Oh great, another album of covers from some other metal act.&#8221;\u00a0 Well, sit on it bucko because let me tell you, when Jorn Lande does something, he doesn&#8217;t just do it note for note.\u00a0 Jorn manages to take a song no matter who the original artist was and make that song his own while staying [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":14,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[276],"tags":[1277,1566,862],"class_list":["post-15903","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-music-editorial","tag-frontiers-records","tag-heavy-rock-radio","tag-jorn-lande"],"aioseo_notices":[],"aioseo_head":"\n\t\t<!-- All in One SEO 5.0.0.1 - aioseo.com -->\n\t<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Norwegian metal powerhouse Jorn Lande is returning to the game with a new album of covers entitled Heavy Rock Radio.
