+Nick Fire same here, you answered the question in my head, hey I recognize a voice like that and it's Flyleaf, but this girl will work on her screams as she ages right?
Hey this is Curtis from the video… left another comment a while back. Hope you guys had a Merry Christmas. Really enjoy coming back to this video every so often as inspiration to keep drumming!
Wait, you're the kid on drums? I've played with some amazing drummers that have toured nationally and I was floored by your performance in this video. You owe it to the world to keep drumming. That's pure talent. Take it from an old guy that let his skills rust away.... Keeping doing what you love and don't let life get in the way or take it away from you.
At the time I had only played drums for a year and a half. I had sheet music for the drum part, and it took about 3 months of learning it and then another month of playing along with a metronome every day and getting it perfect. Unfortunately, I don't know what website/program my drum teacher used to get the sheet music. 10 years later, it's not immediately in my hands, but I imagine I could work it back up in 2 weeks or so :) The biggest difference for me in learning drums parts has been listening to a song 10000 of times in my day because I genuinely love the music. Then going back and transcribing the rhythm with pen and paper is easy to do. The bridge between listening and writing the music down is SINGING the part. If you can sing the drum part from memory, you will be able to play it. @@winwinogaming
Same! Every now and then this video randomly pops into my head and I have to watch it lol. The other one that gets me is the video of the marching band covering Rage Against the Machine.
I know... one of the best kid group covers I've ever seen... And this is a tough song. The drummer especially nails it. Even the little guy with the sticks is right on it. I'd love to see them all reprise this- if the singer's voice is up to the job now.
I perfer her vocals in it. Shes less refined with her singing here but the rawness of that adds a since of desperation that i feel better covays the lyrics. Atleast to me it does 😅
I think it's because they are kids but somehow they have enough brains to understand Tool and that's why they played it so well and have such an impact on ppl, youth but still hitting like adults lol.
I am 70 year old retired professional musician. Since I found this, I have listened to it in my studio very loud, every day. This demonstration of talent, from all of them...superb. BRAVO!
...have you been introdused to Poets Of The Fall yet ? Quality music , with Live_ sound Better then on CD is rear Theese days, but here you are ! ruclips.net/video/NfVGvY7p1sU/видео.htmlsi=SpBlZ8Jho3cER0e_
The thing that always gets me in this video is the look on the little girl's face when she hits those high notes. You can tell she really has to work at it to get her voice there but then she just absolutely nails it and you can see the big smile on her face when she knows she landed it. Makes the whole thing so human and really makes you root for these kids and celebrate their amazing success by the end.
The young man with the percussion sticks exemplifies the notion of no matter how small the part may seem, do it to the best of your ability. Take it seriously because it is a part of the whole, an important part and without that part all the rest would be impacted. Excellent.
I've watched this about a hundred times over the years. And it's still RIDICULOUSLY good. The dude on the drums is a fucking monster. And yes, the vocals are in the wrong register. Because she's literally a child. And still manages to pull off an incredibly challenging cover. 10/10. Absolutely no notes. One of the best RUclips cover videos of all time.
Might seem like an odd comparison, but I saw one analysis of George Michael when he did Somebody to Love with Queen and it was pointed out that rather than try to copy Freddie's range, George just did his own style of singing, which came out far better than if it was a copy. Same is true here...she couldn't have duplicated Maynard at all, so she took her own voice and made it her own.
The drummer and the bass player are the only ones who get it. They are playing from the soul. The rest of them are playing what they were taught to, how they were taught to.
Right?! That’s the best!!! Because they are playing the most important part!! It takes them all. I love that they know that!!!! I was once just like these kidos.
That’s exactly what the guys from TOOL do as well, and it’s what makes them such a great band. There’s no hierarchy in the band. Each member brings something unique to the table in terms of sound and in terms of writing.
I LOVE revisiting this every year or so. Such talented and maybe a little autistic kids, I think that’s why it resonates with me. I wonder where they are today, and I hope they’re doing things that make them happy.
Andreas Matern I just watched it again, and man ... what a great job by whomever orchestrated the music to be played ... and these kids are fantastic. Wow. Just Wow.
All I can say is - HOLY SHIT. Almost 9 YEARS LATER and this is still my favorite TOOL cover ever. All the kids did outstanding - but special tip of the hat to the bassist, drummer, and singer. I still get chills every time I watch this.
To the lady that singing this song. We are working with your dad here in Hot Springs AR. He showed us this and you and all the others kicked ass. Good job. Your dad sure does love u! God Bless you all!
@dravakian definitely an excellent cover and I guess it fits that the drummer would specifically request it. Also pretty accurate that it took him and a couple other kids to cover all of Danny's parts.
After 2 months I still love watching this video. I can't fathom the hours it must've taken these kids to not only obtain the technical skill to play this song, but to perform it with the sincerity and beauty of the original.
Every video I’ve seen from this O’keef foundation have one thing in common. The kids are serious about what they’re doing . They are serious, no joking around. They are committed and serious about what they’re doing. They are putting everything they have into it.
That little girls voice is haunting...so awesome. The bass player has style in his playing and the kid on the drums is absolutely crushing it...Animal recreated..and standing up at the end...KILLER JOB KIDS
Most likely the single best video on RUclips and the best cover of a Tool song period. The Bass player, the drummer, the singer, the lead guitar, the kid with the sticks?!? Come on, I watch this once a week just to smile.
I've been coming back to this video over and over for several years, and although I agree with many comments here (especially on Curtis) I really also appreciate how ALL the members came together on this piece and really paid a proper homage but more than that OWNED this piece. From the sticks to the bass to the piano work everyone clearly put 110% into this. It's one of the freshest breaths of air one can come across. That said, I don't think enough attention is paid to young Kala Rose whose vocal work (though clearly amateur) is exquisite and unmatched. Even Maynard would have to bring his "A" game to beat her on a given night. That's the beauty of music, one must truly feel it to perform it and possess it and Ms. Rose does it very well. Again, congratulations to the rest of the band without whom this would be an exorcise in futility rather than an accomplishment for the ages. What a wonderful rendition, what a fantastic performance
This is insane. If you have any clue whatsoever of how incredibly difficult this song is to play from the drums, bass, vocals, etc. It's absolutely crazy that these are children. You done tool proud.
You're not wrong. Danny Carey is an extremely talented drummer and very difficult to cover. As are all of Tool's songs like you said. And these kids absolutely killed it.
Watched this a hundred times. Every time I see that kid beating the drums like a rented mule it makes me smile. The world isn't a totally shitty place...
no... the world IS a totally shit place, it's just these kids, and others like them, somehow keep giving the rest of us hope.... and god bless them for it.
I first heard this soooo long ago,and I always come back. Every single time I am so impressed by the skill,musicianship and maturity of these young people. It has been,and always will be,an inspiration for my own playing. Again,thank you sincerely!!
Dame I have been in a band for 30 years and we cover this and let me tell u tool is the hardest music to play live due to timing. You better have a killer bass and drummer. That can keep the pocket going and keep u in it. . These kids are incrediable. Unreal job guys keep it up.
I've been drumming for 20 years now, and I'm quite shocked at this kid's raw talent.. People call me talented as well but I'd have to study hard for at least a solid month to pull this one off let alone do it as tight as this guy did. Brilliant performances all around, I'm impressed
Unbelievable still makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck ...teach them young music is life I can't put into words how this makes me feel just outstanding ❤❤❤❤❤
I'm 70 years old and have got to say that this is one of the best videos I have watched on here. These kids(who are grown up now) are fantastic. The singer is exceptional as they all are.
@Varnce, Ever notice how there is always someone on here that has negative comments???? The point is, these kids are 6 years older and some of us who like young people playing music wonder what they are doing now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Teachers never get that. Was raised by Two retired beautiful humans. They left a mark on many people who have worked to improve the world. Everyone’s world.
Can we all take a moment to appreciate the terrific vocalists in this song? She was absolutely amazing! The mood, the way of saying the words, all was perfect!
Anyone else just really really REALLY want these kids to come back now and do a remake of this? I mean, they're insanely talented in this video, but imagine how much their talent has increased in over 6 years!!!
That would be really awesome, but I don't know if we could handle the magnitude of that because this version was actually so awesome that the first time I heard it I didn't even know it was kids doing a cover. I heard it one morning on the way to work on Rocket 95.1 and the way she sang I honestly thought it was Flyleaf doing a cover of the song. When I got home later that afternoon I looked it up and discovered that it was the O'Keefe Music School and my mind was instantly blown. I can't even count how many times I have watched this video at least once or twice a month and it never gets old. Now all these kids are pretty much grown and I don't know what all of them are doing now but Kala Rose has her own band and still kicks ass pretty good.
It’s scary that they must understand the basic theme, but they will live into all the subtext. They can express it, but I don’t want to see them find it out the hard way, which they will, we all do. If I were their parents that would keep me up at night.
Just watched for the first time. I was wondering, hm I guess they're just gonna do this instrumental. Then that little girl's haunting voice just nailed it!
I keep coming back to this amazing masterpiece of these kids playing together, and each of them creating these cover song and really nailing it. God bless
OMFG....I've only just found this today and I'm a huge TOOL fan....or at least I thought I was! Looks like I've got 7 years of listening to this to catch up on...so it's not all bad I guess! 😁
@@jasondamour1311 four coaches. We rotate practices to fit around work schedules. The kids practice 2 to 3 times per week, but I'm only there for one of those (and games).
This girl's voice is crazy. It's like you can tell she is just a kid but at the same time she has like a smoky quality in her voice or something going on.
Just simply phenomenal... That bass player lays it down for the whole group to ride on his shoulders, the drummer, just amazing competence... the singer... making history. What an amazing video of an incredible song by incredible young musicians... I love to come back once in a while and watch them do this again!
The end, when the drummer was absolutely punishing the cymbal, gets me every time. Take THAT! and THAT! and THAT THAT THAT THAT! Looks like a crime of passion. The killer KNEW the victim.
ChannelTUT hahah so true! exactly like me. It just fills me up with so much hope. In fact I'm going to listen to it again, but this time with my headphones, and play it loud
This is a special moment in musical history... A few kids who did not exist when this song was released absolutely CRUSH a TOOL cover! Tool is a hard band to emulate in every way possible! This is the definition of beauty!!! Gives me the feels every damn time!
How about bringing back the kids that played this. Lets see how they have grown into the profession. All of them were great, but the drummer was really amazing.
The Machine Most of them are in a band now! Check out Saving Escape! (My brother, the guitarist Jacob in this video, now plays the fiddle/guitar for them)
Someone "liked" a comment I made months ago and that brought me back here. Thank you, not just for the "like", but more for reminding me to listen to this again. Just finished listening for what has to be the 40th-50th time, and it still gives me goosebumps. Props to Aaron for supporting these young musicians, I so wish I'd had that opportunity ... and that talent.
I keep watching this over and over, so impressed with the Drums and Bass groovin' together, Kala improves on Maynard's delivery of the same vocals considerably, and every kid in this adds value to this song.
Love this cover, the drummer, bass, and vocalist killed it. Best tool cover out there! The only things I don't like about the song is the piano in general. It mellows the song too much. For a tool song. The vocalist voice is a little too pitched at times(completely understandable at her age).
there is a real hope for humanity.. the arts are so underfunded and looked so down upon at this point.. what you are doing is extremely important.. they are musicians in every sense of the word, regardless of age..
One reason is because all the gay people in arts are the voice for the arts..not homophobic or homosexual, just stating facts..dont push it on people..that's why the "arts" are suffering. Art does not equal homosexuality

Its much better and more professional if you put the full name for the bands credit. So people recognise the artists.

That little girl has one of the most fantastic voices I've ever heard!
+Freakgrl04 Yes!! For sure, she ROCKS!!
+Freakgrl04 For some reason her vocals reminds of the original vocalist for Flyleaf.
+Nick Fire same here, you answered the question in my head, hey I recognize a voice like that and it's Flyleaf, but this girl will work on her screams as she ages right?

No doubt! These kids rocked this cover!
For sure!

I would really like to know what vocal effects were used to double the singer's voice (?) in this recording.
The drummer!!! Wow!
Hope to seem them go fit. They have what it takes hands down!!!
Yeah always goosebumps at the end, could listen to him smash that set for a bit longer and be happy.
Just wait until she really dives into tbe 46-2 meaning 😳
Most likely the single best video on RUclips and the best cover of a Tool song period. The Bass player, the drummer, the singer, the lead guitar, the kid with the sticks?!? Come on, I watch this once a week just to smile.
The kid with the sticks plays drums on their cover of Ozzy No More Tears.
The lead singer also did Sober when after she got a little older
This is good but the acoustic cover of Right in 2 by Beard of Harmony is my favourite. ruclips.net/video/6E1DkgUNfBc/видео.html
Totally agree with this comment! Spot on!!
Well said and as a fellow Jones I shall defend this statement with my honor good sir!
The drummer definitely has a future if he wants it
I believe he was the one that chose this song for the whole group to play it
drummer was amazing
Wonder if he’s got a band now. He’s very talented.
Well the singer actually does a better job of it than Maynard....Of course the studio is partly at fault....
I'm a drummer. Statement verified. :)
I've been coming back to this video over and over for several years, and although I agree with many comments here (especially on Curtis) I really also appreciate how ALL the members came together on this piece and really paid a proper homage but more than that OWNED this piece. From the sticks to the bass to the piano work everyone clearly put 110% into this. It's one of the freshest breaths of air one can come across. That said, I don't think enough attention is paid to young Kala Rose whose vocal work (though clearly amateur) is exquisite and unmatched. Even Maynard would have to bring his "A" game to beat her on a given night. That's the beauty of music, one must truly feel it to perform it and possess it and Ms. Rose does it very well. Again, congratulations to the rest of the band without whom this would be an exorcise in futility rather than an accomplishment for the ages. What a wonderful rendition, what a fantastic performance
The bass player is SOLID. Tool is a really bass-oriented band and this 'kid' crushes it.
Oh man that kid killed it. Drummer to
And he is wearing a Periphery shirt....another technically incredible band.
agreed man! Kid definitely crushes those bass lines those took me AGES to get down without my hand dying hahah
@@mcflizzle81 what i noticed also lol
Tool is a really everything oriented band. Hell it took three kids just to do the percussion component.
The bassist turning to the drummer is an amazing moment within this
Staying in Pocket to the finish!
this is the most awesome use of kids time and energy ever. I cannot stop watching.
This is absolutely my favorite version of 46 & 2 … all of those kids combined talents is mind blowing !
I liked the little guy banging the wooden sticks together. He was getting into it.
+Zazzle Delacruz i like how it's a small and repetitive role but it totally gives the song character so it's just as necessary
+Zazzle Delacruz he plays the drums well too
lol 😂
little dude did an awesome job on No More Tears too. Especially since his kit was not adjusted for his size!
hahahahah i feel you
This is insane. If you have any clue whatsoever of how incredibly difficult this song is to play from the drums, bass, vocals, etc. It's absolutely crazy that these are children. You done tool proud.
You're not wrong. Danny Carey is an extremely talented drummer and very difficult to cover. As are all of Tool's songs like you said. And these kids absolutely killed it.
I'm surprised @TOOLmusic didn't show up here... This is insanely impressive!
I know we play it and OMF IS KILLING IT I WOULD LOVE TO DO BIG CONCERT WITH THESE YOUNG MUSICANS THIS IS WHAT MUSIC IS ABOUT ROCK ON ROCK HARD 🎩✌🏼🤘🎸🎀🎸
It's not that hard. Loads of kids learn this song.
The only hard part for the bass is finding a way to stay awake
Watched this a hundred times. Every time I see that kid beating the drums like a rented mule it makes me smile. The world isn't a totally shitty place...
LOL “rented mule” got me
Yes Chopper.
no... the world IS a totally shit place, it's just these kids, and others like them, somehow keep giving the rest of us hope.... and god bless them for it.
Rented mule!
Drummer, Beast mode!
I first heard this soooo long ago,and I always come back. Every single time I am so impressed by the skill,musicianship and maturity of these young people. It has been,and always will be,an inspiration for my own playing. Again,thank you sincerely!!
Woodblock kid is my spirit animal.
Watch him on the Ozzy No More Tears video
😂😂😂😂
Man believed or not he put a unique sensation to the song with that little sound hahaha
@@dylanc.452 well he is on point with the rythm
Those are clave's
The bassist is in the zone, the drummer is a madman, and the singer ... oh, she nails it!!!
The new singer for flyleaf mabey?
I was suposed to say that. I think her name os Kala Rose, and when she sings i truly remeber Flyleaf.
PRETO is she related to axl rose ?
yep thats a rap, drummer is remarkable
She did a great cover of Sober by Tool also, she's a bit older in it and gas an amazing voice
Homey is KILLING those drums. Nice!
Dame I have been in a band for 30 years and we cover this and let me tell u tool is the hardest music to play live due to timing. You better have a killer bass and drummer. That can keep the pocket going and keep u in it. . These kids are incrediable. Unreal job guys keep it up.
I listened to this song until the very end and I'm covered with goosebumps and awe. And, I'm a 70 year old woman.
Rock on!
Metal forever.
I think this might just be age independent. If you can watch this at any stage of your life and fail to be awed, then I'm afraid you're already dead.
@@captaingerbil1234 Gotta agree. I'm 66 and was jacked listening to this. Great stuff!
I’m 62,I absolutely love this,probably more than Tool’s version. I’ve watched it over and over,it’s bad ass.
I'm speechless. The amount of skill and respect these kids display is truly amazing. Thier parents should be proud.
You spelt Their wrong
But that bass player though
Can we take a moment to recognize what a great mix this is. Props to the sound technician!
Beautiful mix
Insanely over done this is trihard to the max not tasteful to my palette
Indeed it got alot of work to sound this good.
guitar way too loud at the beginning but besides that it's pretty hood
Incredibly talented. I pray they know Jesus or it is all In vain!
still the greatest and best version of this song ever recorded.
not even close
The drummer is a BEAST and the singer is amazing.We'll see them both on a record label.
I've been drumming for 20 years now, and I'm quite shocked at this kid's raw talent.. People call me talented as well but I'd have to study hard for at least a solid month to pull this one off let alone do it as tight as this guy did. Brilliant performances all around, I'm impressed
After all these years, I still can't get over how these kids absolutely crushed this song .
Unbelievable still makes the hair stand up on the back of my neck ...teach them young music is life I can't put into words how this makes me feel just outstanding ❤❤❤❤❤
I'm 70 years old and have got to say that this is one of the best videos I have watched on here.
These kids(who are grown up now) are fantastic. The singer is exceptional as they all are.
They have a 46+2...🤘😎
@@origenxtremo Hell yeah XD
@Varnce they are all adults now so... yeah :P
@Varnce, Ever notice how there is always someone on here that has negative comments???? The point is, these kids are 6 years older and some of us who like young people playing music wonder what they are doing now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Duude!! Check out ... CHAIN CHAIN CHAIN!! SAME BAND, yo!!!
Holy shit there IS hope for our future!! Faith in middle schoolers somewhat restored!
The music teacher(s) needed recognition, and I'm saying thank you.
Teachers never get that. Was raised by Two retired beautiful humans. They left a mark on many people who have worked to improve the world. Everyone’s world.
Just listened sgain after 4 years. These kids are amazingly talented. Awesome rendition. Thanks O'keefe
Can we all take a moment to appreciate the terrific vocalists in this song? She was absolutely amazing! The mood, the way of saying the words, all was perfect!
I agree! She sang it exactly like the original!
The devil's eyebrow,,, awesome.
eh
Gaurav On Guitars SO good, love the ‘lift the right shoulder to nail that note’
Yup, definitely caused goosebumps and a frog in my throat
Anyone else just really really REALLY want these kids to come back now and do a remake of this? I mean, they're insanely talented in this video, but imagine how much their talent has increased in over 6 years!!!
You pre-stole my words a week ago!
(Just said the same thing, these kids are probably rock ANIMALS by now 🤘🤘)
That would be really awesome, but I don't know if we could handle the magnitude of that because this version was actually so awesome that the first time I heard it I didn't even know it was kids doing a cover. I heard it one morning on the way to work on Rocket 95.1 and the way she sang I honestly thought it was Flyleaf doing a cover of the song. When I got home later that afternoon I looked it up and discovered that it was the O'Keefe Music School and my mind was instantly blown. I can't even count how many times I have watched this video at least once or twice a month and it never gets old. Now all these kids are pretty much grown and I don't know what all of them are doing now but Kala Rose has her own band and still kicks ass pretty good.
No just do a different song
ruclips.net/video/edH4ajavjLo/видео.html. This is the vocalist now!! She’s amazing like I knew she would be.
@@rebeccagreenwood4466 Wow that's terrible
Hearing such a young voice singing Tool songs is shocking, creepy, eerie and fits so perfectly, absolutely well done - all of them.
Cuz it's about growing. Evolving. Fits. Scarily well...
It’s scary that they must understand the basic theme, but they will live into all the subtext. They can express it, but I don’t want to see them find it out the hard way, which they will, we all do. If I were their parents that would keep me up at night.
Kayla Rose... this is old video and she’s grown and still making music
Just watched for the first time. I was wondering, hm I guess they're just gonna do this instrumental. Then that little girl's haunting voice just nailed it!
I keep coming back to this amazing masterpiece of these kids playing together, and each of them creating these cover song and really nailing it. God bless
Still the best Tool cover I've ever heard almost a decade later.
The best cover song period I've ever heard
Brilliant at every level but Aaron knows his shit and always has the best drummer and bassist on every song he showcases
I saw some Pneuma covers that are on point too, the only thing is they are without vocals
No better cover to date i agree
I remember watching this when it first came out. 7 years later, here I am again.
OMFG....I've only just found this today and I'm a huge TOOL fan....or at least I thought I was! Looks like I've got 7 years of listening to this to catch up on...so it's not all bad I guess! 😁
me too
holy shit that bassist rocked out so hard
Been a Tool fan since the very beginning but still keep coming back time again to hear this superb version.....Fantastic.
Im just a kid i lerned toll from my DAD AND I REALLY LIKE IT 46 AND 2 IS LIKE MY TOP 7 FAVORTE TOLL BUT YOU SHOULD LESSON TO FOLLING FROM A LEESH.
I coach youth baseball. I listen to this on my drive to practice every week to remind myself that kids are capable of more than we think they are.
Are they capable of practicing more than once a week?
@@jasondamour1311 four coaches. We rotate practices to fit around work schedules. The kids practice 2 to 3 times per week, but I'm only there for one of those (and games).
@@UncleBobbo I see. That makes sense. I'll bet it's a lot of fun.
This girl's voice is crazy. It's like you can tell she is just a kid but at the same time she has like a smoky quality in her voice or something going on.
Was looking for this comment. Even though she may not understand the context or relate: she pulled the creepy vibe. Great job!
She sounds like the Flyleaf singer
@David D. where can you find recent work?
@@risheesharma Lacey!
ruclips.net/video/7N6FD7BOvq8/видео.html
Just simply phenomenal... That bass player lays it down for the whole group to ride on his shoulders, the drummer, just amazing competence... the singer... making history. What an amazing video of an incredible song by incredible young musicians... I love to come back once in a while and watch them do this again!
I would like to hear what she sounds like now 7 yrs later
@@tbeach3617 Kala Rose. She has a channel and does loads of covers, incl more Tool, and some originals
As a bass player I see him keeping the whole band together. The drummer is unreal too. Good team 👌🏻
Yes true, hes super solid. But eff all that... there kids lol 🤯😎
I watch this frequently over the past years
It chockes me up every time
These kids are so amazing
We need a reunion
The end, when the drummer was absolutely punishing the cymbal, gets me every time.
Take THAT! and THAT! and THAT THAT THAT THAT!
Looks like a crime of passion. The killer KNEW the victim.
While standing!🤘
Lol
Oh man, I could watch that drummer punish that set for hours
I have to watch this once a week - absolutely phenomenal. And it keeps getting better.
ChannelTUT Same here.
ChannelTUT I watch it all the time as well.
Everytime I see it I know I wasted my youth lol.
ChannelTUT I watch it weekly with my 7 & 3 years old girls that just LOVE it!
ChannelTUT Its great to see kids not indoctrinated with pop-culture crap!!!!!!! Bravo
ChannelTUT hahah so true! exactly like me. It just fills me up with so much hope. In fact I'm going to listen to it again, but this time with my headphones, and play it loud
This is a special moment in musical history...
A few kids who did not exist when this song was released absolutely CRUSH a TOOL cover!
Tool is a hard band to emulate in every way possible!
This is the definition of beauty!!!
Gives me the feels every damn time!
Why didn't RUclips recommend this to me 7 years ago? This is fantastic.
Welcome to the best and the brightest. Bet you will be back.....
@@cammocammo8848 Same here
Just found it, holy shit. I was blown away by her voice and the dude on the drums... They are all so good.
Ditto.
Sooo good! I got the feels. Such talent here!
How about bringing back the kids that played this. Lets see how they have grown into the profession. All of them were great, but the drummer was really amazing.
Bet the drummer disappeared like the 2 baseman from Sandlot
Kala, the little girl singer is from my neck of the woods. She is still rocking! She is in a band and playing all around the cincinnati area
The Machine Most of them are in a band now! Check out Saving Escape! (My brother, the guitarist Jacob in this video, now plays the fiddle/guitar for them)
@@tonymoore8647 oh wow! What's the name of her band?
Saving Escape
IS THERE ANYWAY WE CAN GET A 10 YEAR ANNIVERSARY REUNION EDITION?? 😲❤️🔥
I watch this every so often and think this was one of those special moments
Someone "liked" a comment I made months ago and that brought me back here. Thank you, not just for the "like", but more for reminding me to listen to this again. Just finished listening for what has to be the 40th-50th time, and it still gives me goosebumps. Props to Aaron for supporting these young musicians, I so wish I'd had that opportunity ... and that talent.
Serious TooL fan for 30 years..this was amazing..Her voice..Brought a tear to my eye..Well done, all of you's!
the choice to use a girl was a great choice love it
@@justinhamilton3336 Yes, I agree, she nailed the notes too well!
Agreed! She's nailed it!!!
I'm blown away by each member but the girl can sing!!!
those little dots you use are called ellipses,its customary to use 3...never more,never less...
I keep watching this over and over, so impressed with the Drums and Bass groovin' together, Kala improves on Maynard's delivery of the same vocals considerably, and every kid in this adds value to this song.
me to its fuckin awesome kids can jam
Love this cover, the drummer, bass, and vocalist killed it. Best tool cover out there! The only things I don't like about the song is the piano in general. It mellows the song too much. For a tool song. The vocalist voice is a little too pitched at times(completely understandable at her age).
Not really what about piano and rhythm sticks kid?
I think we are on the same page... I think the drummer and the bass guitarist were the best :)
Agreed, those two really stood out... hope they get together to do more videos for OMF.
These kids are going places! I love this cover.
there is a real hope for humanity.. the arts are so underfunded and looked so down upon at this point.. what you are doing is extremely important.. they are musicians in every sense of the word, regardless of age..
One reason is because all the gay people in arts are the voice for the arts..not homophobic or homosexual, just stating facts..dont push it on people..that's why the "arts" are suffering. Art does not equal homosexuality
McLovin absolutely killing the drums
Hahahahaha
Bahahahahaaaa!!
hahahahahhaa
xdddddddddd
😂😂😂
As a 50 year old man - This makes me very happy that great music is still with some of the younger generation.
Had this on in the car today. So stoked my 12 yr old daughter was singing along
I am a 63 yr old broad in Toronto and this made my day.
@@jmmacb03 Im in Toronto as well they have garbage taste in Rap here and Im only 21 but this takes real talent
Drummer is a legend and doesn't know it or even care! Bravo.
