IN THIS MOMENT Singer Joins DEVICE For Cover Of LITA FORD's 'Close My Eyes Forever' (Video)

May 20, 2013

IN THIS MOMENT frontwoman Maria Brink joined DEVICE on stage yesterday (Sunday, May 19) at the Rock On The Range festival in Columbus, Ohio to perform a cover version of the 1988 Lita Ford/Ozzy Osbourne classic "Close My Eyes Forever". Fan-filmed video footage of the performance can be seen below.

DEVICE's self-titled debut album includes a cover of "Close My Eyes Forever", featuring guest vocals from HALESTORM frontwoman Lzzy Hale. The Pulse Of Radio asked DEVICE frontman David Draiman if he had been able to play the new version for either Lita or Ozzy yet. "Lita has heard it and she loved it," he said. "Ozzy, I have not sent to him. I only played it for Lita because she happened to be coming through town here in Austin, Texas and I went to go see her play. But I can only hope that both Ozzy and Sharon (Osbourne) love it and that they see it as what it is, which is just a tribute to the greatest heavy metal frontman of all time."

DEVICE's debut disc came out on April 9, selling 35,000 copies in its first week of release to enter the Billboard album chart at No. 11.

The live version of DEVICE, which features DOPE guitarist Virus and EVANESCENCE drummer Will Hunt in addition to Draiman, is currently on its first tour.
