Holy crap! What musical talent!! I hope you're making money with your talent. Great voice too. I know these are older videos but talent is talent. I can tella person who has spot on relative pitch! Oh, and the fish chorus was brilliant!!
I'm so glad you took the time, effort, and attention to detail to create this on your own. It's refreshing to see someone who can do that and doesn't simply perform a part over the studio version playing in the background.
Brilliant. Your talent shows how beautifully complex and layered Fooling Yourself was originally written and performed. Another of my favourite songs. Awesome.
Drew ... with pleasure I am commenting again ... this was brilliant in any point of view ... you are without any doubt the best one-man-styx-underwater-tribute-band EVER ... this was incredibly awesome! ... Richie
Can't believe I've never commented on this.... I've seen it many times..... Just awesome everything... Great attention to detail.... Everyone in the aquarium is spot on!
WoW!!! This was way,way,way better that what I was expecting! Almost spot on, great cover, guys! Can you guys do 'Grand Illusion'. Keep on Rocking!!! :)
Many "thanks" to those of you who were kind enough to lend your time and leave some humbling comments on the original posting. I wish I could have copied them over this one! Thanks for listening!... Drew
Gary here again, love your stuff brother. Your singing is great too. You must have an entire closet full of those sleeveless shirts, don't you??? LOL You have one in every color, very fashionable, and it makes getting ready in the morning easy. I might give it a try.
Holy moly, I had to log in just to say that that was the closest to the studio version I've ever heard of any cover. You would get more views if you were to cover songs in your own style I think, you seem to have the talent to do so. Awesome job.
Your video showing the solo parts has been a great help to me learning the solos. I'm running out of time though, any chance you have a transcription of what you're playing you want to share? I'm got the whole intro down and I'm half way through the solo.......
Seriously, both audio and video are really well done! Do you have any advice? I made a keyboard cover of this song as well and I used your vid to help me learn the ending solo, hope that's ok! ruclips.net/video/lnokRllcci8/видео.html
I'm honored that this vid helped you to make yours! That end solo is a beast! The only advice I can give is to keep at it and have fun doing it. You will improve with getting your ideas on camera each time you make one. That's half the fun for me!
That part where you made a weird “wha-wha” actually says “Come on, Doctor” in the actual studio version. Dennis got the nick name “Doctor” from all his prescription meds that he kept getting asked about at the Canadian boarder.
I never knew that, cool! Although, after listening to the original, I can't make out the word "doctor" in there but I'll take your word for it. It sounds like "Come on" is delayed with 2 feedback loops. Either way, the cardinal fish was quite confident in his vocal delivery! ; )
All I can say is more please. This rocks and I wish I had anywhere near this talent!
Thank you!
Soon as the vocals kicked in i knew i would like this. Great job.
Thank you!
Very impressive!
Thanks!

Thanks, so much!
Dude, you rock hard!
Unbe freaking livable!!!!!
So amazingly good.
I want this CD, download. ...
Wow!! Need more underwater bands...very nice!😊😃
That right there is talent.
I'm so glad you took the time, effort, and attention to detail to create this on your own. It's refreshing to see someone who can do that and doesn't simply perform a part over the studio version playing in the background.
Noah, thanks for noticing!
Out-Fricken -Standing! Very impressed.
Awesome cover, awsome underwater STYX tribute band. The singing is spot on for the era!!!!!!!!! GIVE ME FIN! 8D

Another great song ! The vocal harmonies are top notch !! and love the dry sense of humour :)

Brilliant ! Love the cover. The keys are more or less spot on. Hope you can do one for Lorelei !
Can't believe I've never commented on this.... I've seen it many times..... Just awesome everything... Great attention to detail.... Everyone in the aquarium is spot on!
WoW!!! This was way,way,way better that what I was expecting! Almost spot on, great cover, guys! Can you guys do 'Grand Illusion'. Keep on Rocking!!! :)

TexasAxeSlinger Thanks man! Yep, one shirt for each day of the week!
Wonderful! Great work. Fantastic. Impressive. What can I say.
Thank you very much!
took a bong hit and stumbled upon this and after the first verse realize it was one guy......stoned again! but how fucking good are you man..great job
Lol! Thanks!
Monster! Congratulations!
YOU ARE A FUCKING GOD
Lol, thanks!
The vocals are really on-point. The instruments, it's obvious they're MIDI but you still did really well with what you had to work with. Nice job.
Thanks Doc!

That. Was. Awesome!
Thank you!
I'm blown away man! great great job!
Thanks!
Holy Cow! That's unbelievable!
Thanks!
Really cool! Enjoyed!
Thanks!

Sorry for the late reply. I don't have a transcription. It was all painstakingly done by ear, lol!
you are f'n amazing!
Great vocals! Not sure about the fish background but overall a very nice job!
Thanks! However I cannot apologize for the warped sense of humor (i.e., the fish)!
great covers to great songs thanks bro!!!
Thank you Brett!
really like your cover of Miracles out of nowhere as well good job bro!
Terrible hair..... but my God, beautiful music. One of the best Styx covers I've heard. Seriously TEN thumbs up!!!
Lol! Thanks. FYI, the 'skullet' is gone, lol!
@@beatiloogie3 anyone criticizing someone that has a voice like yours, their argument is INVALID
You play it better than the current Styx band haha, It almost sounded like Dennis singing the chorus
+Rodrigo DLM Thanks!
Came for the cover, stayed for the cinematography haha. Far exceeded my expectations!
Thanks for stickin' around, lol!
Seriously, both audio and video are really well done! Do you have any advice? I made a keyboard cover of this song as well and I used your vid to help me learn the ending solo, hope that's ok! ruclips.net/video/lnokRllcci8/видео.html

And maybe get a pet fish or two ;) haha looking forward to your new content!
Thanks! I had a blast making this one!
Awesome! Do you live in AZ or NY? :)
You are amazing dude, you should share your bio, where do you learned to play like that??
Thanks. I live in MD.
Cool take on a great song. Just one question, what's the deal with the sleeveless shirts?
Come on bro'
Yeah, I used to wear shirts like that back in 1988. lol I don't think they make those any more.
Yep, great.
This is really good, sounds just like the original
Thank you!
Thank you!
Thanks!
Hahaha love the ending
This was both really good and really funny.
Thanks!
Reminds me of the Trailer Park Boys doing Closer to the Heart

Here you can hear it very clearly live in 1978:

Cool!
Lol! Thanks Richie!
Lol! Thanks!
Can I join your band?? 😂
haha! Do you have musical gills?
@@beatiloogie3 absolutely do
Sounds great.....I just can't look at the hair.
The hair comments are becoming a thing now! Oh, how I long for the 70s... (and my lost hair) lol!
Ugh electric drums no guitars its everything I hated about styx tho lol except that nut Dennis de young
But honestly it's cool
Slightly out of sync
Thanks!
