violetchain 912 Posted March 28, 2017 (edited) GLAY did a cover of U2's "With or Without You". I think it turned out pretty good overall - you can tell that Teru is really into it - but I'll admit that the "with or without chuuuuuu" kind of kills it.

Himeaimichu 1535 Posted March 28, 2017 So this isn't technically VKei, but these guys did pretty much influence a lot of VKei bands, but Ningen Isu once preformed a special concert where they did covers of their influences, such as KISS, Deep Purple, Black Sabbath (obviously) and Jimi Hendrix Spoiler Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
