SEBASTIAN BACH Is '100% Honored' By CARRIE UNDERWOOD's Cover Of 'I Remember You'

July 23, 2007

Former SKID ROW frontman Sebastian Bach has issued the following update:

"Wow! It will never cease to blow my mind when another successful artist covers one of my tunes. Here is the 'American Idol' herself, Carrie Underwood, doing [SKID ROW's] 'I Remember You'.

"Never in my wildest dreams could I ever have imagined, coming up with this song in a New Jersey garage and recording it in the studio that 20 years later it would live on in an arena stage being sung by a country artist in the USA while I am still singing it myself on stages worldwide.

"Carrie Underwood, if you ever read this, ROCK ON and congrats on all your well-deserved success! You are very talented and I am 100% honored that you are singing this song!! Sounds incredible and I wish you all the best!!"

Fan-filmed video footage of Carrie Underwood performing the SKID ROW classic "I Remember You" this past Saturday (July 21) in Harrington, DE has been posted on YouTube. Also available is a 2006 clip of Underwood singing a half-acoustic/half-electric version of GUNS N' ROSES' "Sweet Child O' Mine".

The 23-year-old country crooner from Checotah, Oklahoma, won the title of the hit Fox talent show "American Idol" in May 2005.

Underwood will drop the as-yet-untitled follow-up to her debut album, "Some Hearts", on October 23.
