Fantastic !! Flawless !! Beautiful !! I honestly like Leonid's version better than Elton's !! There is no boundary to this man's talent. He is Russia's greatest asset.
Many people do covers. Some should and some shouldn't. Then, there's you and your friends who set the standard for what a cover ought to be. Well done . . . again.
Leonid's voice is deeper, richer, more masculine than Elton's. I never really liked to listen to Elton, but Leonid's versions always succeed in making things appetizing for me which I had dismissed in the past. What a musician Leonid is!
i would say Leonid has many more talents than we were aware of this song is beautiful so glad he opened up his heart and let us in to love superb you amaze every day. “Alive Again”
Прослушал для сравнения Элтона Джона. Думаю, что он и его команда были бы счастливы, если бы имели такого Музыканта, как ЛЕОНИД ВОРОБЬЕВ!!! Браво, Леонид Петрович!
Leonid, it seems that everything you touch is beautified. I just loved your earlier clean-well groomed look. Your dignified appearance always graced the whole of you and your musicians. It exemplified you as the absolute master that you are. Please keep working on more for us who are hooked on Leonid and Friends.
Yes, the former look showed professionalism and statesmanship to match the professionalism of the music. Most of the big names have cut their hair as they reached a mature age--hard to find long hair on a top-flight rocker after they turn 50.
This is in my top 3 faves from Sir Elton. Leonid, you've done a fantastic rendition of this song. Never heard any better than this, So beautiful. Thank you for your videos. :)
Michael Sinclair: I 2nd that, Michael! LEONID, I too am a musician but I was BLOWN AWAY when I saw that you had played all the Instruments! Please do come and tour in the US!
You completely captured the mood that this song sets.Never been much of a EJ fan but this song always brings out that weird warm, funny feeling deep inside,like when you bite into a home baked cookie and realized that its not quite done,then the world seems like the place to be.
So gratefull for this, me as Cuban and also a lover of this music and in the same age range , can only be thankfull to you for keeping this alive and above all keep it so close to the originals your music taste is the same of so many people in this tiny island so if any day you have the opportunity to come and play for us here , I am sure it will be a full and surely unexpected success .
I have watched and listened to many, many of your videos - you and your friends are amazing. But I never heard your individual soulful voice. My blue eyes really enjoyed this video.
I can’t remember if I posted about this song. It runs through my mind at least once a week. It is very soothing and melodically a masterpiece. Beautiful wife and tribute. I listen to this in times of stress. I affords me much peace. Thank you, Leonid. Не помню, писал ли я об этой песне. Это проносится у меня в голове по крайней мере раз в неделю. Это очень успокаивающий и мелодичный шедевр. Красивая жена и дань. Я слушаю это во время стресса. Я дает мне много покоя. Спасибо, Леонид.
Супер! Леонид, у Вас великолепный голос с очень красивым тембром, Вы могли бы сделать музыкальную карьеру ещё и как сольный певец! А эта композиция напомнила мне Бэри Мэнилоу, вы не хотели бы спеть что-то из его репертуара? У Вас бы получилось великолепно, не сомневаюсь.
Leonid my friend, to use a baseball term, bases loaded, you just hit a grand slam' !! This is incredible, such a lovely authentic heartfelt tribute to Sir Elton John, absolutely as good as the original.
Leonid, This is a superb release. You performed this tune with its intended groove magnified. Your slow vibrato has a clarity I wish mine had. Well arranged and produced. I only wish I could hear the uncompressed non lossy original master on some good monitors. Anyone who can do what you are capable of deserves to your the world if they want to. I will see you at The Coach House hopefully again soon. Do more cities across the US. Above all, charge more money for tickets! Everyone thought you didn’t charge enough! That’s a good thing. Now go buy yourself a Corvette or whatever. You deserve it my friend. You’ve got over 77 million views, and you’ve got an audience. We are only 10% of the rest that is yet to discover you and your friends! I haven’t been wrong yet! Wish you good health and happiness. P.S. That bass player has got to go! hahaha 🤣 just kidding!!!!!

Agreed100
This song struck a serious chord with me back in the day. Thank you for such a quality rendition. 🙏
So Chicago and now Elton John's catalog. Velvet teddy bear, well done
Wow! I think the first time I have heard Léonid's voice solo! absolutely killed this cover!
Yes he did😂❤❤❤
The talent within this band knows no bounds.
Many people do covers. Some should and some shouldn't. Then, there's you and your friends who set the standard for what a cover ought to be. Well done . . . again.
totally agree!!
Totally agree too
Sir Elton would be very proud....beautiful rendition!!
Leonid is a wonderful guy who I am glad to call my friend. Respect and love sir.

his voice enchants me as a fathers voice to a child....💟
Фантастика!!! Супер!!! Спасибо Леонид Петрович, Вы лучший!!! Elton John нервно курит в сторонке.
Unbelievable! Leonid I love your music!
Very, very nice rendition of a John/Taupin song that people don't get to hear that often. Well done!
i love leonid and friends. liz taylor was just absoulutly georgeous

Ditto on the former look. It makes him look professional and the leader and statesman of the group.
Yes, the former look showed professionalism and statesmanship to match the professionalism of the music. Most of the big names have cut their hair as they reached a mature age--hard to find long hair on a top-flight rocker after they turn 50.
Awesome version! What a great voice!
Leonid, your covers are always performed with such loving attention to detail that they are sincere tributes and compliments to the original artist.
Beautiful, sir. Beautiful.
Who knew Leonid had such a voice?
What a beautiful voice which is perfect for this song. Please try to do this on your channel and let us see you singing to your women admirers.
This is in my top 3 faves from Sir Elton. Leonid, you've done a fantastic rendition of this song. Never heard any better than this, So beautiful. Thank you for your videos. :)
Neither have I😁❤️❤️❤️❤️
Love it! Wonderful rendition!
So so much better than the original. Just a beautiful and much better arrangement.
Beautiful! So happy to have finally met Leonid & Friends recently!
Я настолько потрясён талантом Леонида, что будучи писателем lost for words trying to describe my feelings. Increadible talant!!!
Leonid, love all your renditions of Chicago. You nailed this one in that same fashion. Bravo very good!
Beautiful version !
You are one of the great talents I've ever heard - and there's NOTHING you can't do with music. Would really love to see you come to USA!
Michael Sinclair: I 2nd that, Michael! LEONID, I too am a musician but I was BLOWN AWAY when I saw that you had played all the Instruments!
Please do come and tour in the US!
This is beautiful, what a stunning voice. So easy and satisfying to listen to. Thank You for allowing us to enjoy your amazing talent!
sweet melodies on a sunday afternoon holding a cup of coffee morning breezes..spasibo Leonid Maestro
Tremendous recording!
Fabulous
But we are all still impatiently waiting Leonid for your rendition of Chicago's "Just you and me"
Красавчик! В который раз убеждаюсь, русский человек это самое чудесное творение творение природы.
He can sing, he can dance, and make great music about romance! Well, well done Maestro Vorobyev! Salute!
Fantastic vocals, Leonid❤
Another fabulous arrangement from truly incredible musicians.
Одна из моих любимейших песен с юности! Отличная кавер версия!
You completely captured the mood that this song sets.Never been much of a EJ fan but this song always brings out that weird warm, funny feeling deep inside,like when you bite into a home baked cookie and realized that its not quite done,then the world seems like the place to be.
Thank you Leonid..........beautiful rendition!
Superb. Perfection.
Nice job Leonid!
The understated drummer just rocks this band.
I'm dreaming - it's wonderful
Outstanding
My favourite Elton track. Love your version too.
Superbly done, Leonid. Great rendition. Very nice voice. Lot's of feeling. What else could you ask for?
First time hearing this - what a wonderful version, Leonid! I love to hear you sing!
So gratefull for this, me as Cuban and also a lover of this music and in the same age range , can only be thankfull to you for keeping this alive and above all keep it so close to the originals your music taste is the same of so many people in this tiny island so if any day you have the opportunity to come and play for us here , I am sure it will be a full and surely unexpected success .
Amazing 🌹
Wonderful!!!
I have watched and listened to many, many of your videos - you and your friends are amazing. But I never heard your individual soulful voice. My blue eyes really enjoyed this video.
I miss you
Wish there was a band video with this one (like the others)
Завараживающе!
always great song choices. well played and sung.
Great job on vocals Leonid. With your background, I expect to hear top level recordings in every case.
Beautiful, Leonid. Love it!
Awesome Leonid.
WOW! Sorry Elton, but I like this one better.
Leonid and his friends = music like it used to be great arrangement and tone perfect. 👏👏👏
Wonderfull
So wonderful this is such a gem from such a great talent. Hope to hear lots more from you in 2018.
Very excellent rendition of this tune shows the versatility of your talents. Hoping to hear you "live" again in the near future
Oh my gosh…You’ve crushed it again!! Soooo smooth!! This is just as incredible as the beginning of “Brand New Love Affair”.
Se me ha puesto la carne de "gallina". Perfecto 🌟
Awesome
The most beautiful blue eyes ever
What a beautiful rendition of this song, Leonid! You did an amazing job. .
Brilliantly done. Orchestration equally magnificent.
I can’t remember if I posted about this song. It runs through my mind at least once a week. It is very soothing and melodically a masterpiece. Beautiful wife and tribute. I listen to this in times of stress. I affords me much peace. Thank you, Leonid.

Beautiful!
Amazing Leonid !!!
Это - здорово ! Отменно !
Потрясающе.....
I do wish they were showing them playing instead of just pictures.
Super rendering of the epic song. Kudos
Excellent......
I love it but I'd rather watch you guys sing and play! 🤩
Absolutely unbelievable. What can you guys not do? I sure hope you come to the USA. I will spend money to go to another city to see you live.
They are coming to the USA Jan 2019. Tour dates are on their website.
Wonderful
Little Violet in there.. them eyes... nice Leonid...
OMG this is gorgeous 👏👏👏👏

That's Liz Taylor's purplish blue eyes indeed those great ol'days musical theme
She was the most beautiful woman in the world
@@sculptureshard377 Amen :)
Miss you Liz :(
Bravo…!
WELL DONE! A favorite.
Enormous good
Bravo Leonid and friends !
I only knew your Chicago (Transit Authority) covers, not Elton John ones.
woooollll, wonderful
Interesting thing is, Elizabeth Taylor's eyes weren't blue. They were famously violet. Виолетта !
Astonishing, maestro!
Great Song and would like to hear you and Ksenia duet together too!
Браво !!!
That was beautiful. I love your voice!
Leonid my friend, to use a baseball term, bases loaded, you just hit a grand slam' !! This is incredible, such a lovely authentic heartfelt tribute to Sir Elton John, absolutely as good as the original.
