    This reminds me of the very beginning of a concert where the countdown clock for the main artist to come on stage has ended and the lights are all down. the crowd’s screams have just begun to die down and then that first bass note hits and the entire stadium goes ape.

      I disliked this, and i am not a bot( i know, that's just what a bot would say...or is it.....) anyhoo, the first part, he's just playing chords with loads of distortion through a decent amp, which is pointless cos the backing track is so loud you can't hear it anyway and when he does show a bit of class, again, it's drowned out by the backing track!

    Hey, can I ask a recommendation for the next cover...
    could you do glass shoes/to heart/love Bomb/FUN! by fromis_9
    i always wanted to hear a rock cover of their songs since i feel it would make it the biggest bop 💕🍀 thanks if you do :)

    Literally started using RUclips for music more just so I can listening to tobee’s covers more often. He’s so talented and just makes everything better 👏🏻👏🏻 and also does amazing guitar without smothering the rest of the song?? Which is also amazing
