German metalcore band Any Given Day later recorded a heavy cover that circulated widely on YouTube as an official music video, introducing the song to metal audiences. Their version kept the recognisable melody while adding breakdown style instrumentation, which helped it spread in edit communities that enjoy unexpected genre flips between pop and metalcore.

A heavy metal cover clip of Rihanna's Diamonds by Any Given Day, with shouted vocals and distorted guitars used for intense edits and reaction videos.
This clip is a short excerpt from Any Given Day's metal cover of Diamonds, originally by Rihanna. The familiar pop melody is rebuilt with down-tuned guitars, pounding drums and harsh, shouted vocals that turn the chorus into something aggressive and anthemic. The contrast between the romantic lyric and the heavy delivery creates instant drama, making a well known line feel defiant rather than soft. Listeners hear both recognition and surprise at once, which is why the moment lands as a powerful punch in edits where emotion needs to hit harder than the original version.
