In general EVERYTHING these folks do rises AT LEAST to levels of the original recorded versions, if not better. It’s amazing what having so many singers can do for your sound
I use to think this song was easy! Until I sat down and tried to play it for the first time the day before! Probably not the best idea but It’s deceivingly difficult especially trying to remember all the groove changes and form. I could say it’s probably the hardest track I’ve had to play or maybe because I gave myself minimal learning time, never the less well done to the team as always. Hope everyone enjoyed the track as much as I did listening back! Enjoy the rest of your day! Michael ✌️🥁 🎤❤
A great insight Michael. It shows the importance of preparation and practice. Awesome drumming on this one - you made it look like it was easy, which is clearly a sign of your ability and talent. Well done!
it’s so great to watch you perform in the zone like this Michael. Thanks so much for drumming in this one. Hope you’re happy with the sound I pulled on your kit 👊🏼
Such professionalism on show, a minimum of stage antics, a maximum of concentration on the task in hand. You can see each of these performers is a perfectionist, every single note is coaxed into existence dead accurate and dead on time. This is not some frivolous game, it is a serious construction job and the end product is a wonder of musical engineering! Bravo!
@@singitliveworld don't take it the wrong way, I think you're all good musicians, it was just an extremely boring performance. Played it too safe, maybe too many takes took the piss out of the performance?? Dunno. Probably be better live.
Why in the heck is this song always so hated by critics and on those stupid lists?!? I’m 48 and this song always stirs emotions and makes me want to be 13 again. The best of times! Amazing performance!!
@@jaygerson lol this is true!! We’ve seen starship several times at Epcot and given the crowd reaction during this song it’s clear how many people love this song!
Great production!! Hard to believe that level of searing music came out of only 5 people. The all around singing was spot on. And, I don’t get to say this enough on this guitar player….he finally brought a blistering TONE to the event! THAT’s what brings all the boys to the yard, mate!! His towering lead run was SOARING!! Well done! 👍👏👏👏🤟
3:20. Since it's missing I'll add it: I'm looking over that Golden Gate Bridge on another gorgeous sunny Saturday and I'm seeing that bumper-to-bumper traffic... Whats your favorite radio station, in your favorite radio city, the city by the bay, the city that rocks, the city that NEVER sleeps!
OMG ! your darn right we built this city , how brilliant are the drums, so clear. Take a bow all , this will be on repeat throughout my day. Great work by great artistry. Thankyou.
My god, this is perfection personified. Spectacular drumming by Michael, excellent bass by Stuart, phenomenal guitar by Tzan, beautiful crystal sharp singing by Melissa, and incredible keyboards and vocals by Darren. Just phenomenal. I loved every second of this.
I love her, I love him, i Love the drummer, I love the keyboarder, I love the guitarist, I love the bassist, damn I simply love everyone in this ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Fantastic cover. Problem is I can’t praise just one vocal or band member without feeling guilty not saying anything to the others. Everyone and everything about this cover is top notch. My ears thank you!!
WHY DOES THIS CHICK HAVE THE MOST PERFECT ENERGY, LOOK, HAIR, MOVES, FOR THIS SONG?!?!? Obviously the band is as tight as it can get , but the singer just completes the perfection of this piece! 👏👏👏
The crystal brilliance of the vocal harmony ! The impeccable guitar,bass and drums punched through this song. Darren's ever present mastering and mixing puts the icing on the cake! I can't call it a cover, you guys brought it and owned it.
I didn't realize the keyboard guy has such a great voice! They always seem to bring in the best guest lead singers. Every single one. One of the best covers bands I have ever seen. She even sounds like Grace! That low voice. Wow Stunning! Great job folks!
Well, another where to start comment! I need to broaden my vocabulary. Absolute cracker of a track. Great to have such a strong male / female driven performance. Everyone's in on the act as always (just needed Michael to Sing-It-Live!) Superb mix, really sounds great in 4K. Darren, you really do look after your supporters with this commitment to the channel. The time and effort that this takes each week is always appreciated. Darren's 2022 Producer of the Year Grammy (honouree) rightfully on the piano, kudos to Brian Jones. I can just about spot the ever chilled Harley on his bed. Roll on next week after this has been re-played many, many times. Love from Matty 🤩
If you started this video and listened with your eyes closed you would believe them to be Starship. They sound EXACTLY like Starship when they performed the song live. Very, very well done!
Mel and Darren are so great together. They compliment each other. Every week i am just blown away by the talent. Spot light this week is shining on Tzan for me! It's not easy to play this style of lead. His smooth style and years of experience with Rock and Metal shows what an outstanding Guitarist and also singer he is. Well done.
Couldn’t agree more. Talented musician amongst talented musicians. The guitar sound on this track is absolute quality and testament to his skill and execution to deliver in this awesome ensemble performance
F**********CK!!!! This is quite simply *THE* best cover version of any song ever!!! Perfect in every way, stunning vocal performance, guitar is simple but just right - and placed beautifully in the mix...I personally think this is better than the original - thank you so much xx
In the summer of 1985 I was 5 years old. I remember discovering this song while listening to music on hot day in the cool confines of the public library in Mesa, Arizona. I put on a record and an oversized pair of ear phones and listened to this song over and over again for an hour. It was the first music I had discovered for myself. It was mine and it was special. I’ve never been the same since and have pursued music ever since.
I rarely actively watch these videos - because, well... I listen to the music. But I was absolutely mesmerized by your performance and couldn't help but smile and watch the whole way through
Great music everyone!! Love this song and you did so well! Unbelievable. Melissa is a total home run! Super work Darren and SingitLive. Thank you, friends 🤩
superb professional cover - Bote vocals and music, No difference from the source - the new combination of Singit produces very accurate top level music - Darren Mulan and Melissa MeCalg and the leading Guitar Tzan Nico are super focused and delivers not only the song, but the delivers the atmosphere of 80'. it is the second cover of "starship" when Darren Mulan produces .The first musical cover was "nothing gonna stop us now" performed by HSCC, and this is the second "we built this city " performed by SINGIT. both of the covers are more than perfect It seems that singers and the top level musicians give their best with the conducting of Darren Mullan - applause to Sing it.
Please keep bringing the Singer on and on I love her, sorry🙏🏽 and your guitar player, I know he is a regular like crafty as well. Please forward my appreciation to them both
OMG SingitLive, you just took us back to our time living in Northern California and working in SF, the radio stations would play this every morning as we drove to our office in SF to work!!! You All just hit another home run!! Great vocals All!! Melissa ,Darren, Tzan, Stuart and Michael well done!!👏👏🎶💃Bravo!!
After listening about 20 times over the last couple of days not is this only one of the best performances of this song I have seen by the group but the sound is so good I hear and feel every vocal / instrument part superbly. Love the studio work look forward to more by all of you.
*WOW !!! Can’t believe that I didn’t post a comment. At **4:38** Darren is HEAD JAMMING which tells you what a great recording this is! Perfectly mixed! Melissa and Tzan Rock this track! Simply AWESOME VIDEO!*

Just WoW!
WOW! 😮
To call this a cover almost seems rude! Its a bloody masterpiece of a performance - that's what it is! Amazing.
It truly is, better than the original!
@@kms250 ❤
In general EVERYTHING these folks do rises AT LEAST to levels of the original recorded versions, if not better. It’s amazing what having so many singers can do for your sound
I was thinking the same!!! Soooo much better than the original and the vocal harmonies are absolute 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I so agree Matt
I did not realize RUclips could sound this good until now. This video needs to be archived in the Library of Congress. 😁
Ja...ja...ja que divertido comentario, bendiciones
That guitar player is a pure genius, absolutely, unbelievably, utterly perfect, my God!
I totally agree!
Agreed100 they definitely nailed it down and owned it😂🔥🔥🔥😍
Nuno Bettencourt?
I use to think this song was easy! Until I sat down and tried to play it for the first time the day before! Probably not the best idea but It’s deceivingly difficult especially trying to remember all the groove changes and form.

Michael ✌️🥁
🎤❤
Fabulous playing. As a guitarist, timing is tricky.
A great insight Michael. It shows the importance of preparation and practice. Awesome drumming on this one - you made it look like it was easy, which is clearly a sign of your ability and talent. Well done!
You are a fine player Michael ; mind you with the the mentor you've got it's easy to understand why.
Cheers
it’s so great to watch you perform in the zone like this Michael. Thanks so much for drumming in this one. Hope you’re happy with the sound I pulled on your kit 👊🏼
You did a worthy job Michael. I can see the concentration you are putting in to get the best from yourself.
Now thats a vocal blend we need to hear more of - what a special blend - congratulations team 👌👏🎤🎶👏❤🙏
Rik, I literally just wrote the same thing 👍
Grace Slick was it!
Voice of 80s.
Female vocals need an eq shine Sits to low in the mix
It certainly isnt the worse by any stretch
great job
Melissa McCaig is incredible, in her looks, her voice and her vocal technique.
The band is amazing. 👏👏👏
Croly hap!
Yes!!!
OH MY GOD!!!! That's the best cover of that I've ever heard.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Phenomenal!!
I wouldn't have guessed that just five musicians could make that fabulous sound. I'm impressed..
Check out Rush...
@@normansawatzky4778 ...or Emerson Lake and Palmer. Best 3 piece groups (along with Rush) ever. Loved the keyboards in this Darren!
The eagles, there’s plenty
That keyboard players vocals are so bloody powerful. This song was made for him
His name's Darren and the guy is awesome.
Darren did it just as good , of not
even better !! 😄
this is my favorite Darren vocals song. 🙌
Yep he nailed Mickey Thomas down to the last note, and keys were spot on way to go Darren
Absolutely 💯
Love
Starship would say. WOW!!👍👍👍👍
Such professionalism on show, a minimum of stage antics, a maximum of concentration on the task in hand. You can see each of these performers is a perfectionist, every single note is coaxed into existence dead accurate and dead on time. This is not some frivolous game, it is a serious construction job and the end product is a wonder of musical engineering! Bravo!
you are absolutely correct. We have a lot of fun doing this under pressure together. Glad you like it 🙏
To be fair its easy to not overdo the stage antics when you're in a bedroom
@@Joshcheyka …’to be fair’ there’s a lot of competition out there and we try our very best to stand out in amongst the millions of new videos
@@singitliveworld don't take it the wrong way, I think you're all good musicians, it was just an extremely boring performance. Played it too safe, maybe too many takes took the piss out of the performance?? Dunno. Probably be better live.
@@Joshcheyka if there is a better live cover of this song you are welcome to show me
Why in the heck is this song always so hated by critics and on those stupid lists?!? I’m 48 and this song always stirs emotions and makes me want to be 13 again. The best of times! Amazing performance!!
Because many people my age thought that Grace Slick sold out. From Airplane to Star ship was just a bridge too far. Go ask Alice, she'll tell you.
"Why in the heck is this song always so hated" .... I'm pretty sure its because of the MTC video. The hair!
*MTV
Your answer is self answered when you said " on those stupid lists". I just love this song
@@jaygerson lol this is true!! We’ve seen starship several times at Epcot and given the crowd reaction during this song it’s clear how many people love this song!
Never heard anyone ever remake this song. Great job.
If there was a Cover Hall of Fame, these guys would get there long before Starship did!
Great production!! Hard to believe that level of searing music came out of only 5 people. The all around singing was spot on. And, I don’t get to say this enough on this guitar player….he finally brought a blistering TONE to the event! THAT’s what brings all the boys to the yard, mate!! His towering lead run was SOARING!! Well done! 👍👏👏👏🤟
Tzan is such a tasty player, my respect for him never stops rising
@@mbolduc …👍👍
My face is melted by Tzan's last 8 bar shred!! Like TOTALLY melted....
🤣🤘🏼
To capture Grace and Mickey vocally, and then present this music so authentically, what an achievement. Thank you.
3:20. Since it's missing I'll add it:
I'm looking over that Golden Gate Bridge on another gorgeous sunny Saturday and I'm seeing that bumper-to-bumper traffic...
Whats your favorite radio station, in your favorite radio city, the city by the bay, the city that rocks, the city that NEVER sleeps!
This guitar guy is one of the best I’ve ever seen. This cover sounds even cleaner than the original recording for me. I am speechless
Yeah, this guy is amazing.. everything is perfect here!
Yes! Melissa absolutely killing it with those vocals.., WOW!. Fantastic musicianship. Milk and honey for my ears. God bless from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 👍😌❤️🙏
OMG ! your darn right we built this city , how brilliant are the drums, so clear. Take a bow all , this will be on repeat throughout my day. Great work by great artistry. Thankyou.

This gonna hit millions!
I hope you’re right 🙏
Fantastic cover. Problem is I can’t praise just one vocal or band member without feeling guilty not saying anything to the others. Everyone and everything about this cover is top notch. My ears thank you!!
Wow, Melissa and Darren hit a grand slam again!!
Yeah, that was incredible.
Wow, I've watched thousands of these videos in the last few years. This has to be the best group i've ever seen ever!!!+
OMG!!!!!!
Wow! The vocals by those two are insane. God damn this cover rivals the original artists. Freakin well done. Bravo.
WHY DOES THIS CHICK HAVE THE MOST PERFECT ENERGY, LOOK, HAIR, MOVES, FOR THIS SONG?!?!? Obviously the band is as tight as it can get , but the singer just completes the perfection of this piece! 👏👏👏
It's like she was born with this song in her heart.
Don’t overlook the guy on the keys! In fact, I think it’s his vocals that are actually making this sound so similar to the original Starship song.
❤
She sure is easy on the eyes.
@@blademan6075 True that. Darren sounds eerily like Mickey Thomas.
Jesus!!! Thats about the best cover i've heard. And the guy doing the high parts for the harmony! Good stuff guys
The crystal brilliance of the vocal harmony ! The impeccable guitar,bass and drums punched through this song. Darren's ever present mastering and mixing puts the icing on the cake! I can't call it a cover, you guys brought it and owned it.
After listening to this performance, the original sounds like the cover...
@@luiskay2487 That's exactly how I feel about it. This group of musicians create outstanding music.
Melissa McCaig is so stunning and is an absolutely phenomenal singer!!!
This is the absolute best cover of this song I’ve heard.
Single released back in 1982? It sounds best than ever. Darren is an extremely talented musician able to turn old songs into actual hits!!!
We all need some Starship in our lives!!! Excellent tribute by the true musical masters!!! Cheers!!!
I didn't realize the keyboard guy has such a great voice! They always seem to bring in the best guest lead singers. Every single one. One of the best covers bands I have ever seen. She even sounds like Grace! That low voice. Wow Stunning! Great job folks!
The singers, the players - that was terrific. This was an 80s mega hit. Thanks for giving it a spotlight today. 👏🙌💫
When someone can play a cover song like this and it hits you harder than the original. That my friend is talent!!!
Vou tentar ser claro na minha língua pátria: essa banda deu uma retocada talentosa em uma música gravada por talentos.
Yes, what a masterpiece 🎉🎉❤!
The words are the same, the notes are the same but the sound and energy are fresh. Thank you all for your work.
Well, another where to start comment! I need to broaden my vocabulary. Absolute cracker of a track. Great to have such a strong male / female driven performance.

Dont you remember, we built this channel on supreme talent and heart? love this. thanks Singit!
Dude playing the bass is so chilled out, just going with the vibe!
상당한 수준의 밴드네요
이 곡을 라이브로 너무 잘 살리네요
정말 대단합니다..
Holy cow, faith in musicianship restored👍
Thank you for this.
I can't believe it! This is how Starship would sound today. Tremendous work. Greetings from Argentina
You guys could make a world tour and make a million or 2 easily. This is high(est ) class cover band music .... amazing
True
I'd go for more than 10M.
One of the best covers of any song I've ever heard.
If you started this video and listened with your eyes closed you would believe them to be Starship. They sound EXACTLY like Starship when they performed the song live. Very, very well done!

@@billrimmer5596 Yes my absolute favourite from HSCC. It is up there with Baps and Barry.

tzan the best guitar player australia and byond
that high lick in her voice...wow !
This is great. I just want to acknowledge the work it takes to be PERFECT, and not just good. Amazing job.
That vocal intro is now my alarm clock. ⏰🔔💥
Absolutely brilliant. Bravo. Tzan's solo at the end Is off the hook. Had this one on repeat. Long live the 80s tunes! 🤘🎸
Never understood the bad rap this song got over the years. Nailed it gang!
I rarely actively watch these videos - because, well... I listen to the music. But I was absolutely mesmerized by your performance and couldn't help but smile and watch the whole way through
첫 소절부터 소름과 당시를 겪어보지도 않았던 추억과 가슴 시림이 울려나네.. 마음을 울리는 하모니에 박수를 보냅니다.
Darrens Voice is awesome !!! and great performance as well
Amazing talent in this band!!! Very enjoyable videos and your sound mix is brilliant too!
Rock on! Beautiful harmonies, great vibe, and as always, Tzan Niko is the most underrated rock star on the planet
Definitely the best cover of the song on the internet
So much power in this performance - old is gold !
Great music everyone!! Love this song and you did so well! Unbelievable. Melissa is a total home run! Super work Darren and SingitLive. Thank you, friends 🤩
I grew up in the best era of rock music. I closed my eyes as you sang. You scored a 100% on this song. Great job.
Melissa and Darren, your voices blend so well together. Absolutely awesome!
Darren, can't believe your voice 🤩 but you nailed it, thank you.
I'm BACK a week later, replaying this WONDERFUL Video.. and as we used to say back in the 70's .."PHUCKIN' A!" wow

That was freakin' awesome!! Vocals were spot on right in the pocket. Very nice thank you!
This might be as good or better than the actual starship version. My gosh ❤🎉 The mix is outstanding and the background vocals are perfect.
Please keep bringing the Singer on and on I love her, sorry🙏🏽 and your guitar player, I know he is a regular like crafty as well. Please forward my appreciation to them both
My fav by Singit! These guys are one of best cover bands in Australia!!!
Darren has a wonderful, top of the premier division team. Absolutely superb professional music and vocal content.
Great cover and great arrangement, can hear each instrument and vocals without any one overpowering another. The vocalist are perfectly matched.!
OMG SingitLive, you just took us back to our time living in Northern California and working in SF, the radio stations would play this every morning as we drove to our office in SF to work!!!

Fabulous there.
Incredible performance 😮
Beautiful cover, it's as good as the original. Good job. God bless!
I do not know about anyone else but my eyes are glued to Melissa. Her moves are perfect for this song, plus her singing and harmonies are excellent!
wow!!!
We Built this City on Rock and Roll.. hell yeah!
Wow wow wow and again wow!!!
After listening about 20 times over the last couple of days not is this only one of the best performances of this song I have seen by the group but the sound is so good I hear and feel every vocal / instrument part superbly. Love the studio work look forward to more by all of you.
The best cover band I've ever heard, very good, it's perfect, just like the original, or rather, congratulations to everyone in the band
The best cover band I've ever heard! Congratulations! Success always to you!
Closest to the original that I've ever heard 👍
Blown away. Closed my eyes through the whole song and it was Starship singing to me.
*WOW !!! Can’t believe that I didn’t post a comment. At **4:38** Darren is HEAD JAMMING which tells you what a great recording this is! Perfectly mixed! Melissa and Tzan Rock this track! Simply AWESOME VIDEO!*
