Lead singer Josh Kiszka, has a 5 octive range. He's 5 minutes older than his twin, Jake Kiszka lead guitar. Younger brother Sam Kiszka on bass, organ, piano and plays bass foot pedals when on keys. Danny Wagner is phenomenal on drums. Sam and Dan have known each other since kindergarten and they all grew up in a smallish town called Frankenmuth, MI.
@@donnybuoy yeah people hate them because they consider them a "ripoff" of led Zeppelin, which they are not, just heavily inspired, even Robert plant said they have talent and he respects them
@@BrainMeltGaming Ah, weird. I'm a MASSIVE Led Zeppelin fan and have definitely noticed the influence, but I've never considered it a bad thing? Hmmm, lol
I bought their first album and loved it, but kind of wrote them off as Led Zeppelin copycats. But THIS is the real deal. This is the real Greta Van Fleet. Kudos to them because they have found their true calling. Amazing stuff and I am blown away, years after hearing their early stuff and liking it a lot but thinking it was derivative.
Totally! Rock n roll is making a great comeback. If you like Greta, be sure to check out some other rising nwocr (new wave of classic rock) bands like Dirty Honey and Thorslund!
@@bec7812 lmao you're obviously not understanding the context here but I'll give you a pass on that. Again, let's focus on their musical talent rather than focusing on "he wears crystals and talks about love. Like he is straight out of the 60’s." That is such a basic and cringe way to define these guys, I'm tired of women focusing on the image of musicians rather than the MUSIC...
@@jluv6627 lol you got issues, you’re the one hyper fixed on their outfits. Let them wear what they want and mind your own, they clearly love making music and fashion. I’m tired of weird men always making everything a “woman issue” just relax buddy
@@bec7812 lmao you obviously have reading comprehension issues, the original comment was talking about what they were wearing... Again you miss the subject of my comment smh... are you just low intelligence?
@@lebigfin5251 Ok everybody else does tho and they have addressed the likeness. The GVF singer sings "Oh mama!" just like Robert Plant. Theyve had a huge influence on the band. Listen to "Highway Tune" and then go listen to "The Rover" they sound IDENTICAL!
Greta van Fleet is the only band that can make me cry tears of joy listening to them. every time. just happy, melancholic tears. Cant wait to watch them grow more!
Ya know, I was thinking the same thing a few minutes ago while listening through The Battle AT Gardens Gate. Just makes you well up a little, and it's been a long time since music made me feel quite that good.
for those of us who love classic rock Greta is our salvation and they give us hope for the future of rock cause us music lovers " need" these guys, I hope their around forever! From a 66 yr young lover of classic rock!
Just finally saw them for the first time and you can literally feel the love! You walk away from their concerts a changed person. Its hard to describe.
Watched these guys last summer in Fort Worth, Tx and hands down it was the greatest concert I’ve ever seen. I’ve been listening to them since their “Battle at the Garden’s Gate” album in 2021. Instantly became my favorite band from the first time I heard them
Indeed, GVF is destined for greatness. Their latest album, _The Battle at Garden's Gate,_ is one of the best albums I've ever heard. As you know, _Heat Above_ is fantastic. The epic _Age of Machine_ is arguably better, and _Broken Bells_ is their best effort to date - about as good as any rock classic. Watch these guys. If they continue to mature and grow musically as they have over the last couple of years, they'll be legendary and will eclipse even the bands they're now compared to. Nice reaction video!
Old Rocker Chick here. GVF are amazing! I have loved them since SNL. Josh Kiszka, lead singer, is in a league by himself. The kid wails in his own unique style. Love him, brothers, Jake and Sam Kiszka and the drummer, Danny Wagner, family friend. 😍😍😍😍 These guys are in the same class as Led Zeppelin, Queen, etc. They have their own unique style and are fabulous. Haters get a life… y’all are ridiculous.
The most love ive ever felt in my entire life was at a GVF concert. It was an overwhelming positive aura. There is so much energy, theyre so much fun, and all the boys are so sweet. Theyre just as fantastic in person. I cant wait for the next concert
I agree that we’re on the “ground floor” of a massive skyscraper. They’re so talented, and I’m so lucky I got to see them live. They’re just as impressive. I can say with conviction that this band has changed my life for the better, and I’m so glad they exist! ❤️
I just discovered GVF (& your channel, as well!) and share your enthusiasm for that band. As one "old guy" to another, keep sharing your thoughts and passions! 🤙 💙 Marty
Just about any song he sings brings me back to the best bands in rock. His high voice n band are just so impressive. Live the high nites Flawless singing
i’m so glad their name is getting more known and heard of. they truly are amazing, i really hope they go so far in this music industry because they truly deserve it. great video
One of the best reaction videos I've ever seen! I could feel your excitement through the screen. So great to see so many enjoying this band and experience history in the making.
Welcome to the world of GVF. It's quite the rabbit hole. Check out their LIVE version of 'FLOWER POWER" from Brazil. Amazing performance. Josh' vocals are insane. He's the real deal, a legit 2021 hippy. His twin brother is the lead guitar player, and his other brother is on bass. The drummer is the only one in the band that's not a sibling. Thank you for not comparing them to Led Zeppelin. They are their OWN BAND!
This band is the real deal been following them since 2017 they have so many songs and there all fantastic he also sounds like that live the whole band doez
When I first heard this I cried. Didn’t realize I’d cry again watching y’all react to it. It was like I went back in time and experienced it again. Thanks for uploading! 🖤
This song is one of the greatest I've ever listened to.. Cannot stop playing it and the album is one of the greatest I've heard in years... These lads will become one of rocks greatest bands ever... utter class
Great video! This song makes me feel like all will be ok in the end. I can’t explain it but you guys said it well- you can’t feel sad while hearing this song. It touches my soul in a certain way. It’s magical. Please PLEASE do The Weight of Dreams from the same album and wait for the guitar solo- the whole thing is a masterpiece. Also, Age of Machine- wow!!! They are incredible- there is also a lot of Rush and Yes in there too but they are really finding their own identity which makes me so happy. I think they are going to be HUGE!! So talented and I can’t wait to see them live some day!
This was literally a religious experience for me. I can remember going with my mom to church to listen to her practice her solos and it would bring me to tears. I've not felt that for a very long time. Thank you GVF! I can't wait to see you in concert. 🤯
Im 68 just heard them tonight. Been watching videos and they are influenced by so many great artists. This song sounds a lot like Rush to me, others are Led Zepplin. Very talented and down to earth group of young men, hope they stay that way. way.
I will never forget the first day I listened to them. I asked my friend Dakota for new music and without hesitation he said GVF about 3-4 years ago. Since then they’ve been my favorite ARTIST not even band since then.
I'm 53, just discovering these guys. I am hooked! Love them! Love everything they do. The stage presence, song writing, overall musical talent! Incredible!
Your reaction was so real and down to Earth ...When I first Heard this band ..I nearly had a stroke. I fell in Love with music , when , as a child in 1975, I heard Queen wafting from the door of a Music store in Ashtabula Ohio. I became a Musician, guitar player, and have played with bands for years. I was ready to give up hope that REAL music , and musical integrity still existed in this sad sorry age of mediocre , over auto tuned and over quantized media wonders. Until I heard this band. It is as if Led Zeppelin, Queen and Rush collided, then threw in a little Janis Joplin just for grins and giggles.While everyone and their brother are out there trying to become the next overnight Social Media wonder. These guys are giving up and coming musicians lessons in how to become the next Musical Legends !!
@@carleebixel very cool ...yessiree I went to the NOW defunct Ashtabula High School before I joined the Military . My father is still living , he is still in Ashtabula .
AHHHHH i was so excited when i saw this, i watched all of your one direction videos and i just got into greta van fleet and love people reacting to them!!! And im seeing them in a week :)))
I discovered this band last November and I have never moved a band so much in my entire life..they truly have had a huge impact on my life and I honestly don’t know what my life would look like without them🤍
Stardust chords is one of the best songs I’ve heard in years, when a song makes you feel things you haven’t felt form music in a very long time then you know you are living in a moment of history where true greatness is being created
Yup I was there the first night. My first concert in years, and they kicked ass. From now on I will make a point of going to a concert for every Album release, they are that special!
His voice control is out of this world, notice how @9:09 the descent of Ohs is a slowed down yodle. They're going to be big and will keep Rock alive. Three brothers and a friend, what a band.
Yes, guys, Joy is the gift of Greta Van Fleet. I dont recall another band we could say that about. Even their harder, or more solemn, songs - some of my favorites (check out the Age of Machine video!), you can still feel the genuine soul-deep joy these guys feel when they play. Phenomenal and incomparable. 🤗💗 Peace, love & unity. Keep the joy!
Jeez, I 1st heard Robert Plant talking about G. V. F. about 4 years ago, they are a Fantastic band, with their own unique style, but Josh Kizca he has got an amazing voice, he's got such charisma, his vocal range is 'off the scale', they should definetley be a stadium band, i hope that they get really big ! !.
Watching you two reacting to GVF was fantastic. These young men are so talented. I watch all the interviews I can with their parents. They come from a happy musical family and it shows. Check out more of their songs. They have such a Epic sound. 🎶☮️💕✌️
Fun reaction guys! I grew up in the 60's and 70's with bands like Pink Floyd, Led Zepplin, Beatles, Rolling Stones and so many more. These young men are absolutely great and definitely evoke so many of those great bands while maintaining a special brand of their own. There are few bands that I would put up with my favorites from my youth, however there is one band that is so very unique and exceptional that I would love to hear you guys react to - Nightwish. They are a Symphonic Metal band from Finland with a phenomenal lead vocalist. I'd recommend their live performance of Ghost Love Score at Wacken open air festival 2013. I think you will really enjoy it. Meanwhile, subscribed for your Greta reaction.
Not enough people react to these guys. They are phenomenal. Asolutely superb song writers. And hell, if I was as young and good looking I'd play dress up too : )
I am so glad that now that Young people had/have a chance to here Greta Van Fleet. A lot of there music style comes from there parents music collection and that is kinda how they play music. And even now the days of being called a Led Zeppelin & Rush copycat band are now gone. They have found there element. Great Rock & Roll band.
Hey y’all. I’m new to your channel and don’t worry I’m sure I’m older than you both lol! But my late fiancé introduced me to Greta Van Fleet a little over two years ago and they’ve been my favorite band ever since. They’re all so talented! And Josh’s voice. Omg if I was in my twenties… haha! So glad you’re enjoying them! I just love them❤. Have a great weekend!
I hope it does too. He doesn't seem to need to strain to do what he does so I think he's doing it relatively healthily, which means he should be able to do for a lot of years.
I love this song. What blew me away even more was that only us old guys would recognize the 3M Bookshelf game Acquire. I think I had Stocks and Bonds, Mr. President, and Twixt too. Great song reaction and thanks for the blast from the past.
Love your channel. Just discovered it. You must know by now GVF won Grammy for hard rock album of the year (2021 I think). Saw GVF live this summer. Great show
this video perfectly shows how i feel every time i listen to heat above. every time feels like the first time all over again. love yall in this video. pure excitement and love radiating off both of you
Started listening to Greta Van Fleet last week. First impression- Zeppelin, Styx, Rush and Yes delivered in the style of Freddy mercury, Kate bush and Prince Brilliant!
We have Greta Van Fleet and what we have is Josh is doing Josh! And he clearly loves to sing.The sheer joy of it. And Jake and Sam and Danny all love what they do. They also have individually won awards. I cannot wait till people just listen to the glory of GVF and stop it with comparisons - and that time will come because they are amazing and actually unique. And apart from their musical ability, what people don't comment on enough is their lyrics are so beautiful and full of meaning.
I just want to say thank you so much for posting this reaction. I have been listening to Greta Van Fleet for sometime and have been wanting to feel the same way I felt when I listened to their music and watching you guys react to Heat Above has re-ignited that same wonder that I felt when I first listened to the song. Thank you for allowing me to re-experience this song for the first time.
Mesmerizing and absolutely captivating. This lady said everything! Other than the fact they are unique and ridiculously talented….but that just have a chemistry that works. I think part of the draw for me is listening to them is like someone took pieces of my childhood and through into today…..transcends time.
He wanted to be an actor, but put that aside to be the frontman in the band. To help his brothers. He also took dance lessons and yes oozes with absolute confidence on stage, a big joker off stage.
Greta rocks. Seen then live in NY 2019. They absolutely rocked it. I said it then I'll say it now. They will be around the next 40 years. This is our new rock band to love guys🤟😎🤟✌❤ peace love and respect
Nobody should be begrudgingly insult this incredible talent they possess. Only jealous and spiteful people would criticize these young guys. Some just can’t even fathom how difficult it is to create a song let alone CRUSH IT. I love these guys their sound IS GREATLY NEEDED.
No...Lady Gaga is like a female Prince. Let's acknowledge who came first. Also of interest, Josh (lead singer) is all of 5'3"-5'4", just a hair taller than Prince was. Lady Gaga is 5'1". Dynamite comes in small packages.
@@fudzzz Yes, I got your meaning and no worries. And it's miss, not sir. King is my last name. My @ is also in reference to my favorite song by the band Inhaler, "My King Will Be Kind." Cheers!
“Prince, Queen and Led Zeppelin”. That’s probably the greatest compliment in music history.
Absolutely!!!!!
And the truth. You can clearly see , hear and feel all three.
Throw in Rush and YES too
LOL
Other guys: "The real problem with Greta, it's sound like Led Zep"
Me: "I have a band... I want that was our problem"
@@michaelbell75 YES i was literally just about to comment add RUSH on top of that
Lead singer Josh Kiszka, has a 5 octive range. He's 5 minutes older than his twin, Jake Kiszka lead guitar. Younger brother Sam Kiszka on bass, organ, piano and plays bass foot pedals when on keys. Danny Wagner is phenomenal on drums. Sam and Dan have known each other since kindergarten and they all grew up in a smallish town called Frankenmuth, MI.
Just like Zeppelin...singer...guitarist...drums and an all around utility man on everything else!
5 mins older, 5 octive range….kinda a funny coincidence
@@briannas8097 😂 so true!
@@briannas8097 Yeah, imagine if Josh were ten minutes older.
@@juliemanarin4127 No. NOT just like Led Zeppelin. Zeppelin didn't suck.
I adore seeing people react lovingly toward GVF after all the hate they've gotten, I love them to bits
Hate?
@@donnybuoy yeah people hate them because they consider them a "ripoff" of led Zeppelin, which they are not, just heavily inspired, even Robert plant said they have talent and he respects them

They are well on their way to becoming legends. In time, they will.
This band gives me hope for the future of rock and roll that I've not felt for many years.
Yes I've missed that feeling of hope for rock as well
Me too bud…58 yrs old…luv These guys
Totally agree 👏
Totally! Rock n roll is making a great comeback. If you like Greta, be sure to check out some other rising nwocr (new wave of classic rock) bands like Dirty Honey and Thorslund!
You should to listen Rival Sons
These four dudes honestly made me fall in love with music again. There is just something about them. This album on vinyl is life changing.
Great comment
Same! I heard them and I was reminded of the good old days.
I’ve not been the same since that album came out..”Broken Bells” is my new Stairway..
Me too
Its music that I've just been craving for soo long. Their new song Meeting The Master, is phenomenal.
His presence is very spiritual. If any one ever noticed he wears crystals and talks about love. Like he is straight out of the 60’s.
Corny lol, I love them but come on lets focus on the fantastic music not these characters they're playing
@@jluv6627 they’re not playing anything, that’s them and they love it.
@@bec7812 lmao you're obviously not understanding the context here but I'll give you a pass on that.

Again you miss the subject of my comment smh... are you just low intelligence?
The fact they are young means there will be more songs, more albums which makes me happy. I've listened to every song a thousand times and I want MORE
Listen to Led Zeppelin, music is very similar!
@@cle9146 I've heard there stuff, I'm not a big fan 👀

Same
Please keep reacting to Greta!! Listen to broken bells is so good!! They’re the real deal
Yesss & love BB &…. Flower Power .., everything they do is gold. Powerful band !!!
Broken Bells is truly a classic from any genre.
best song on the album
You mean how they rip off zeppelin?
All of their songs are amazing!!!
I’m 61 years old and I am in love with this “young” band!! Best music I’ve heard in a long time
Just finally saw them for the first time and you can literally feel the love! You walk away from their concerts a changed person. Its hard to describe.
I just saw them at the Greek Theater in LA, it was breathtaking and truly emotional. Almost unreal
@@Smellykat3 I was there too! So amazing
Totally agree!!
I saw them live and didn't realize I was crying as I listened to this. It made me miss my dad so much
Well put and very true. Just saw them for the 3rd time. I was shocked at the depth of effect they have on their audience. Shocked in a good way!
His voice is a dance! YES! Sister has it down! She needs to be on the show all the time!
She really brought a wonderful vibe. She seemed young at heart and every other way. That dude needs some tidying up in the manors department.
I’ve seen Zeppelin, Rush , Queen and Tull in concert back in the day .. this kid is incredible.. goosebumps wow!
Thank you! I was searching for the Rush comment because that is exactly what I hear as well. Makes me feel like a kid again🥰
Thank you! Someone else got Getty Lee vibes.
Bon Scott anyone?

I agree! Saw these guys in Denver. Amazing show
I absolutely love Built By Nations!
My favorite song right now is The Barbarians and Broken Bells!! Theyre so amazing
Vocal quality of Robert Plant. Range of Freddie Mercury. Yodels of Patsy Cline. That kid's something special.
With all the amazing qualities he’s showing, that yodel is like what puts him so far over the top.
@@robertewton5341plus the fact that Josh didn't sleep with a run away 14 year old on tours is a plus

100% They are my new obsession. 👍🏻❤️🎼
@@MK-hb3xc, technically there is some yodel in there. You’ll find it.

Same! In Ottawa! 😍🤩
I'm getting a Geddy Lee sound to his voice as well !
Oh completely! Good catch!
Yes !!! Agree. His voice is so layered & rich …. Powerful. Moves my soul !!!
Great comment! I can totally see it !
When I first heard it, I instantly thought Geddy.
Absolutely
No comparison they are originally themselves they have there own sound and they own it!
MUSIC. REAL PEOPLE PLAYING REAL INSTRUMENTS. TALENT.
REAL MUSIC. THANK GOD.
He may be compared a lot but you can’t get mad at someone’s voice..that voice is what he was born w it’s his style
You 2 is so sweet to critique this band with so much love.
seeing them live was transcendental, a must!!
React to Age of Man live at Red Rocks! A spiritual experience for sure!
Agree!!!!!
Such a beautiful live version, his voice is incredible, totally agree with you!

I've been following them since the start. Not just a Zep cover band any more. No one who loves music could hate these guys.
I like the fact that you Both seam to have an insightful knowledge and know how about creating a song. Love watching you vids! Love from Canada

They're going to be big and will keep Rock alive. Three brothers and a friend, what a band.
Yes, guys, Joy is the gift of Greta Van Fleet. I dont recall another band we could say that about. Even their harder, or more solemn, songs - some of my favorites (check out the Age of Machine video!), you can still feel the genuine soul-deep joy these guys feel when they play. Phenomenal and incomparable. 🤗💗 Peace, love & unity. Keep the joy!
''The weight of dreams'' is THE SONG from that album
you could say that about almost any of them but especially this song and that one
100% agree!!!!
Yesss
💯
Jeez, I 1st heard Robert Plant talking about G. V. F. about 4 years ago, they are a Fantastic band, with their own unique style, but Josh Kizca he has got an amazing voice, he's got such charisma, his vocal range is 'off the scale', they should definetley be a stadium band, i hope that they get really big ! !.
Watching you two reacting to GVF was fantastic. These young men are so talented. I watch all the interviews I can with their parents. They come from a happy musical family and it shows. Check out more of their songs. They have such a Epic sound. 🎶☮️💕✌️
Fun reaction guys! I grew up in the 60's and 70's with bands like Pink Floyd, Led Zepplin, Beatles, Rolling Stones and so many more. These young men are absolutely great and definitely evoke so many of those great bands while maintaining a special brand of their own.
There are few bands that I would put up with my favorites from my youth, however there is one band that is so very unique and exceptional that I would love to hear you guys react to - Nightwish. They are a Symphonic Metal band from Finland with a phenomenal lead vocalist. I'd recommend their live performance of Ghost Love Score at Wacken open air festival 2013.
I think you will really enjoy it. Meanwhile, subscribed for your Greta reaction.
That is on my list....
That guy can wear whatever he wants, his voice is an absolute treasure.
I hear a little Black Crowes as well…love this band! The bass and guitar players are twins and the singer their brother.
Not enough people react to these guys. They are phenomenal. Asolutely superb song writers. And hell, if I was as young and good looking I'd play dress up too : )
I've just been seeking these first time reactions just to see and share your responses! Love!!!!!!
Gives me the shivers every single time I hear this song. Discovered them over 2 years ago. Awesome band!
I am so glad that now that Young people had/have a chance to here Greta Van Fleet. A lot of there music style comes from there parents music collection and that is kinda how they play music. And even now the days of being called a Led Zeppelin & Rush copycat band are now gone. They have found there element.
Great Rock & Roll band.
You should have her on here more often! Loved her input.
😁 Thanks!
You guys have captured the best description of Greta van fleet. Awesome job reacting love you both
These two expressed what I've been feeling and trying to express for the past few years!
Hey y’all. I’m new to your channel and don’t worry I’m sure I’m older than you both lol! But my late fiancé introduced me to Greta Van Fleet a little over two years ago and they’ve been my favorite band ever since. They’re all so talented! And Josh’s voice. Omg if I was in my twenties… haha! So glad you’re enjoying them! I just love them❤. Have a great weekend!
I hope his voice holds up over the years.
I hope it does too. He doesn't seem to need to strain to do what he does so I think he's doing it relatively healthily, which means he should be able to do for a lot of years.
I just wish I could have caught them live at Red rocks that would have been amazing
I love this song. What blew me away even more was that only us old guys would recognize the 3M Bookshelf game Acquire. I think I had Stocks and Bonds, Mr. President, and Twixt too. Great song reaction and thanks for the blast from the past.
It was so sweet to watch you two enjoy the song together, it was like listening to heat above for the first time all over again! ❤️
Thank you so much!!
The joy their music brings. They are hippie space angels and I love them.
I hear so much Rush in them. Amazing
i absolutely love her input/commentary!! AND she's so beautiful! :)
Imagine that a band that can sing songs with amazing voice, and talent without swearing, without singing about women and sex
Love your channel. Just discovered it. You must know by now GVF won Grammy for hard rock album of the year (2021 I think). Saw GVF live this summer. Great show
this video perfectly shows how i feel every time i listen to heat above. every time feels like the first time all over again. love yall in this video. pure excitement and love radiating off both of you
Just found these young dudes and I CAN NOT UNDERSTAND the hate they've gotten!! Blows my mind that this kinda talent can garner such rancid attacks!😢
Green eyed monster
Started listening to Greta Van Fleet last week. First impression- Zeppelin, Styx, Rush and Yes delivered in the style of Freddy mercury, Kate bush and Prince
Brilliant!
PLEASE do more greta reactions!! Their music has helped me so much and I absolutely loved your reactions!!
He sings using yodel with a lot of technique, leaving his voice unique, not to mention his 5 octave range.
The reactions made me fall in love with GVF all over again. Such good vibes in this video. Awesome job! 🙏🏼🤩
We have Greta Van Fleet and what we have is Josh is doing Josh! And he clearly loves to sing.The sheer joy of it. And Jake and Sam and Danny all love what they do. They also have individually won awards. I cannot wait till people just listen to the glory of GVF and stop it with comparisons - and that time will come because they are amazing and actually unique. And apart from their musical ability, what people don't comment on enough is their lyrics are so beautiful and full of meaning.
I just want to say thank you so much for posting this reaction. I have been listening to Greta Van Fleet for sometime and have been wanting to feel the same way I felt when I listened to their music and watching you guys react to Heat Above has re-ignited that same wonder that I felt when I first listened to the song. Thank you for allowing me to re-experience this song for the first time.
THIS BAND reminds me WHY i love music so much. their music truly makes me FEEL
Mesmerizing and absolutely captivating. This lady said everything! Other than the fact they are unique and ridiculously talented….but that just have a chemistry that works. I think part of the draw for me is listening to them is like someone took pieces of my childhood and through into today…..transcends time.
Shelley Let's Go See Them!!!!! Amazing!!! Great job with this piece!
Sounds great, Sue!!!
He wanted to be an actor, but put that aside to be the frontman in the band. To help his brothers. He also took dance lessons and yes oozes with absolute confidence on stage, a big joker off stage.
Greta rocks. Seen then live in NY 2019. They absolutely rocked it. I said it then I'll say it now. They will be around the next 40 years. This is our new rock band to love guys🤟😎🤟✌❤ peace love and respect
Nobody should be begrudgingly insult this incredible talent they possess. Only jealous and spiteful people would criticize these young guys. Some just can’t even fathom how difficult it is to create a song let alone CRUSH IT. I love these guys their sound IS GREATLY NEEDED.
"Prince is like a male Lady Gaga" is the most accurate description of Prince I've ever heard.
No...Lady Gaga is like a female Prince. Let's acknowledge who came first. Also of interest, Josh (lead singer) is all of 5'3"-5'4", just a hair taller than Prince was. Lady Gaga is 5'1". Dynamite comes in small packages.
@@kindking8009 Agreed sir. My bad. But you got my meaning hehe.
@@fudzzz Yes, I got your meaning and no worries. And it's miss, not sir. King is my last name. My @ is also in reference to my favorite song by the band Inhaler, "My King Will Be Kind." Cheers!
Love this reaction. This reaction is FANTASTIC, as well is the band. All the best in the new year to yous.
