your great
This is probably my favourite song of all time....you did an amazing version
I'll do Cheek1969 one better, this is my all-time favorite song. This unique twist was very impressive, awesome vocals and Jenny's violin work is extraordinary. I do have to echo several others who find Ms. Baker very lovely to look at as well ......
Very good cover!
No hall effect like Tom used on Brad's vocals, but still clean and precise.
Sub'd.

Took a song that's almost impossible to cover properly and just nailed it and then some. Beautiful tribute to a beautiful song...
Ms.Oaks-Baker nailed the guitar riff!
This is one of my favorite songs ever and you two covered it beautifully. Having been in a deep depression for some time, I let my music go. But when I saw Ms. Baker blow the dust off of her violin case, open it up and start tuning that lovely instrument, I cried like a baby. All is not lost for me - I still have my music - and nobody can take that away. So I just blew the dust off of my guitar case, tuned up that old Martin and started playing again. Thank you from my heart, and blessings to both of you.
I'm so glad to hear it! We all need to dust ourselves off once in awhile, too, I suppose. And having a guitar nearby is a good way to do that. 👍
Way to go dude - never give up.
Reading your post made ME cry like a baby.
You have a Martin sitting in a dusty case ? That deserves a slap, but I'll let you slide, my friend...LOL Deep depression is a bitch, indeed. You have a talent many only dream of....making music. Please keep making those strings vibrate.....it's good for the soul. Tesla is right......frequency and vibration is EVERYTHING. Remember that cosmic secret, amrtek1
keep playing bro..im the same, playing every day again now
I’d be hard pressed to find a harder cover song to sing. Wow. He nails it. And she is a fantastic compliment to this piece 👍🏼👍🏼
I'm a pretty harsh critic, and you guys should be damn proud of this. Just the fact that you can approximate Brad Delp's tone and range is amazing. The violin was great (when Scholtz started using his Rockman, people thought he was using violins).
Excellent work on one of the hardest songs in rock to cover.
100% agree
I have never heard Mike Masse do a bad cover. This is just incredible and would have made Brad Delp proud. Mike really could tour with Boston. I really like Tommy DeCarlo but Mike Masse does the song better and hits those high notes perfect. Gives me chills when I hear it! Love, Love
@@aaronherbison7316 Agree !!!!
Yes..that was pretty amazing. Not many male vocalists can hit that high. That was a special period of time of rock in the 70's 80's when lead singer vocalists could nail those highs. Brad was one of them, Steve Perry comes to mind too. This was pretty special too.
It's not only an awesome cover, it's got to be the best music video I've ever seen.
Dear TH-cam algorithm:
It took 5 years for you to suggest I watch this vid??? Are you kidding me???
(Meanwhile...)
Stunning cover you two.
Brilliantly played.
I remember exactly where I was driving the first time I heard this Boston track played on a SoCal FM station decades ago. I'll now always remember first viewing of this impeccable cover.
Bravo, Jeff & Jenny...

Thinking the same thing! What a talent!
I was just thinking that too. Where has this song been for the last six years? I've always like Jenny Oaks Baker. She's phenomenal.
No kidding!
I've heard this song thousands of times over the last 45+ years, and this is really good. I was impressed by the extent to which Ms. Baker was able to imitate an electric guitar with the violin.
The best rendition in the history of Boston covers.
Nice rendition. Has to be one of the hardest song ever for a vocalist!
THE VIOLIN ON THIS IS AMAZING!!
I think same great arpeggios AND counter melodies and it goes higher than a voice ha ha. Singing is great too. This is hard to sing 2 and half octave raise in melody.
I have to transpose it a bit lower...or begin very low from my voice register.
And Jenny is beatiful!!
All the Boston songs should b done this way
Well it is Jennie Oaks Baker...
The singer is better. Fucking crazy
I don't comment on cover tunes, but good Lord this one is exceptional. You owned it! Not only did you cover the voice with impeccable accuracy but added a hauntingly mesmerizing instrument that I never believed would fit this tune. My hat off to you good sir. And a tip of the hat to the fair lady.
Beautifully put sir, An exceptional cover by an exceptionally gifted artist stunning.
Do you know how rare you are, Mike Masse? How you actually hit the high notes with such Grace and ease puts you in the 1%. We’re not worthy😀. Great job to both of you.
Just found this. Thanks for taking me back to 1976 where I heard this on a school bus going to eight grade.
It is w/the greatest of sadness that I find myself here due to the fact I just lost my little sister last week.i am here because I introduced her to your music and everytime she came over she had me play your music videos because she as I do get such joy from not just listening to your music but watching the accompanying videos.She so loved how expressive you are when you sing.The joy she saw on your face while you sing lit up her face and she was so touched by your voice and your arrangements "More Than A Feeling" became her favorite song these last few months and I have decided to play it in her memory at her funeral this Saturday.I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your music and how it has touched everyone that has ever heard you but expecially my little sister.Thank you so much for your music because it does really touch people in ways you probably. are not aware of.
Robert Levesque Wow, Robert. So sorry to hear that. Sounds like you two were very close. I lost a sister a few years back way before her time, so I can relate on that level. My deepest condolences, and thanks for sharing that.
Mike Masse Thank you so much for your words. I have been sitting here listening to your music.I have been a fan for about a year now and I couldn't begin to convey to you what your music especially 'More Than A Feeling' meant to my sister. My sister was disabled and endured alot of physical pain.Every Saturday I would bring her to my home w/other family and friends for BBQ etc... Her name was Vera Lee by the way. Every single time she came over the first thing she wanted to do was go to your site and or you tube and watch and listen to your videos. She so loved them Mike. When I played 'More Than A Feeling' she would smile and literally shed tears because it touched her so deeply and the wonderful playing of Jenny Oaks combined w/you became her favorite song hands down. I cannot thank you enough for the gift of your music that truly took her away from her pain everytime she listened to you. She asked me if I could download the music for her and I told her the next time she came over we would go to your website and she could pick and I would purchase any and all the Mike Masse songs she wanted . This was something I decided to do for the first time; that is using my credit card online because of fear of stories others have told me of having there accounts compromised ( and the fear did not extend to you) but hackers. My lord I didn't mean to ramble like this ....She passed away 2 days before she was to come over that day. I intend to support you and your music and I have turned dozens of family and friends on to your music. Once again I want to thank you so very much. .
Thanks for that, Robert. I would have loved to have met Vera Lee.
Mike Masse You could send him a copy of your most current CD. The one that you just wrote...
+Robert Levesque I am so sorry for your loss, life is fucking brutal. Mike Masse makes things just a little better though.
Why isn't this guy more known?
He beats the shit out of 99% of the srtists on the billboard top 100 in terms of vocal performance and skill.
Because music is a business and has nothing to do with skill. It's about how much product you can sell. He's too old for mass market appeal. Anytime you have a question and can't reason out the answer logically....think money!
@@internettoughguy He is doing pretty well now . Musicians just need to market themselves forget the thief's that take advantage of them.
@@paulcardsfan going to see him in St Louis. Hope Jenny is with him.
in a way, I am kind of glad (sorry Mike!!!), I would rather he be less known and extremely good at his craft rather than be well known and swamped by attention and fame and no longer good at his craft. Some of the best artists and musicians were really not well known for their time they were active. Still, if he can be famous and still retain his quality and craft, more power to him!
99.999999%
Jenny's smile could melt an iceberg GREAT JOB
This is beautiful, and a fantastic tribute to Brad Delp, thank you so much for this amazing cover ❤️
it's almost 7 years and I still love listening to this cover. so beautiful
Greatest Boston cover I've ever heard!
Agreed!
Never thought anyone but Brad Delp could hit those notes and sound so good
@@atanasdotsinski5666 Nobody can and ever will. This guy did a great rendition though and came pretty close. He'd be better as the new Boston's new lead singer than the current guy. But anybody in music industry that is smart wouldn't/shouldn't work with of for that egomaniac Tom Scholz who basically totally RUINED his own original "rock & roll band" and broke them up and screwed over ALL his original band mates when they had pure unique MAGIC as "a rock & roll band" that Tom dismantled and totally destroyed into a lame mellow music ballad crap cover band with garbage musicians.
Agree!
OMG !!!!
Impossible became possible .... !!!!
This is a single cover of the "BOSTON's" classic, which my ears can only accept !!!!
Congratulations Mr. Mike Masse und Ms. Jenny Oaks-Baker !!!!
You both musicians, you put this song on the one step higher with that amazing violin part and impressive vocal. Thank you both very much, eh ??
Mike Masse, almost singlehandedly getting me through covid lockdowns.....one word....thankyou.
Did this man ever sing a bad cover. Some his his covers are phenomenal ,some excellent and some very good and the ranking stops there .This is certainly one of his phenomenal ones .His voice does full justice to the original Boston song and the violin solo is very good
I am speechless Mike, the two of you gave me goosebumps listening to this! Brad would be proud!
The first time I listened to Boston back in the 70s I knew I was listening to something special. The first time I heard this rendition I knew once again what "special" means. WOW! Ok, so there's a tear in my eye. Thank youuuuuuu.
No matter how many times I’ve seen this, it still brings a tear to my eyes! ☮️💕
What the hell man?!? You are possibly the best singer on the face of the earth right now!!!!! This is purely incredible!
I can't stop listening to this, and that's a good thing. Thank you!
This version is th art. the best of the best...Mike Masse bravo!!!!
I don't have any words to describe how great this is, but I can tell you it made me cry.
Classic rock with all the classic rock video tropes, you can't beat it. Standing in a farmers field while the camera flies overhead. Love it. Great rendition.
Best cover of that song I've ever heard! And I loved the inclusion of the guitar lick from "Long Time" at the end!!
Great song of the History of Rock !
It's a great classic of all the times !
Thank you for give us this cover, it's beautiful !
It reminds me my youth (I'm 66, je - je) !
Greetings from Mexico !
When I first watched this ( some 3 months ago now ) and when Jenny began to pull out her fiddle, I nearly turned off the video, as I believed that a fiddle does NOT belong in this classic imo... however, remembering that I have been suprised by the unexpected before I decided to listen to this version once, and by God am I glad I did! Both the vocals and Jennys fiddle are superb, and this cover is positively masterful! I have listened to this dozens of times since then, and plan on doing so indefinitely.
Bravo and my full complinents to both Mike and Jenny! I love this cover and I thank you both for giving it to us!
This cover is sheer perfection. Its as if, somehow, they improved on a iconic song that could never be improved upon. But they did! Simply awesome!!
" I see my MaryAnn...walkin away..."
Still remember "a girl I used to know"....my MaryAnn, when we were teens back in the glory days '70s.
Thanks for the great memories MaryAnn...where ever you are.
Listening to music like this is one of the benefits in LIFE...Thank you JOB
I've heard a lot of Boston covers and you are the best I've heard! Thank You!
Holy shit, how am I just coming across this in 2021?
This man has some killer pipes & the woman adds so much with her talent.
This man should be a superstar by now.
Here you go - a live concert by him is 30 mins.... th-cam.com/video/IFzcVB-rAgg/w-d-xo.html
he hit the notes!! that almost never happens, Amazing job and amazing cover!!
I cannot describe how I feel right now...the violin adds so much.
One of the greatest songs of ALL time-- you do it justice-- Thanks Mona and Lisa for introducing you to me
Bloody Hell that was perfect. That Vocals and that violin. The violinist cannot get hotter :) Thank you for that.
This blew me away! I haven't heard or seen anything this good in a very long time. Extremely well done all around. Bravo!!! Wow!
My adolescence fortunately included the music of Boston.
This cover brings back those great memories of my adolecence.
very nice job by all
There is just so much talent here, it's utterly amazing
Got goosebumps with the high notes and violin
Many have tried and failed, this one, A+ !
I love the violin! It adds so much to the song in a respectful way. Beautiful cover.
Good God i love the violin in this. Im so impressed Mike with your work. Thanks for your gift!
notice at 4:14 she plays intro solo to 'Long Time'...that's pretty cool 👍
Caught it right away, good spot.
Watch her fingers at 3:36 or so. I wish I could like it again.
Wow..you caught that? Had to go back and listen. You nailed it.
You’re on the ball, and it fits in so beautifully! This is a really great production!
I noticed that also, they are amazing.
What a fantastic cover. Extremely hard to make such a well known song sound fresh and you have. Superb playing throughout and congrats on doing the late great Brad justice. You can't ask for more than that!
WOW!! Who would have thought a violin replacing the electric guitar lead in this song could sound that good?! Just fantastic. And the vocals were dead-on as well! Great job on about my favorite song ever.
I remember when Boston put out their first album, I fell in love with this song the second that I heard it. I'm pretty sure that I've easily played it 10,000 times. Ever since I've seen this version, I have a new love for one of my favorite songs in my heart...
Nice job Mike, you really sang your heart out on that one...🎶❤🎶❤🎶❤🎶
Killer!
More than an interpretation... Fantastic!
And the lady on the strings did an outstanding job as
Well.
only mike could pull off an iconic song like this, and do it justice
Love how the violin/fiddle player snuck a little "Foreplay/Long Time" solo action into the outtro of this song. Well done.
Beautiful my musical brother and sister.
OMG! Totally blown away
I am so impressed with this. Thank you and all who shared their gifts to give us all a wonderful dedication to Brian Delp. You did him proud!
Fantastic!!! Great violin solo! Singing is spectacular!
I play along with you all on my guitar. I love the solo! lol
Brilliant. Back when music had teeth. Nobody covers like you, Mike. Boston would be proud of what you and Jenny did here.
Nice rendition, you two. Mike, nothing you sing and play surprises me anymore. I've followed your videos for several years now and you continue to blow me away with your vocal range, melody and overall talent. Kudos to Jenny Oaks Baker for taking an instrument I never dreamed of connecting to this song and nailing every note with precision and perfect clarity.
DAMN! That's amazing. Way beyond well-done.
INCREDIBLE!!!
Wish I heard this 5 years ago!
and i love the fiddle--fantastic job young lady
God you covered this Boston song as well. Fan here!
Love the drone shots. Definitely two great artists outstanding in their field! (Ba-dump-cha!)
Seriously Mike, I've loved this vocal since you published this. Going back through for a Mike Masse re-listening binge just now, and this is an all-time favorite! And Jenny absolutely nails that Boston vibe. Great song!
You are THE best cover singer I have ever listened to. Hats off, my man!
brilliant,,Mike you are blessed with beautful pipes,,lovely
I have listened to the original hundreds of times. Never thought anyone could reproduce this song till now. Your vocal range is spot on, excellent production by both of you, just incredible. Thanks for making this.
This is just an incredible piece of music. I grew up with Boston's classic original, one of the best songs of its generation. But this cover is such unique perfection that its like hearing it for the very first time, again.
Jenny’s skill & looks take this one over the top Sir
Very nicely done Mike, and Jenny...absolutely splendid! You two work well together.
Everytime I listen to this, it gets better and better. Thanks Mike and Jenny.
I've said it before and I'll say it again!! You are the greatest cover artist, that ever lived!! That range is incredible!!
That solo with the violin
NIIIIICE
This my favorite song of this era. And this is my favorite cover of this song of all time. Thank you Mike and Jenny, the arrangement is perfect, brilliant and uplifting.
Nice job on vocals Mike, and AWESOME violin playing Jenny. Superb video folks I really enjoyed it. Thanks to all who produced and filmed this video. Very cool!
Incredible voice and range Mike 🔥🔥🔥
Incredible violin playing! gave me the chills!
Boston Boston was the first album I ever purchased. They remain my favorite band. Mike, we are not kiss'n-up when we say you hit Delp dead on. I would pay to see you with Boston...and so would every Boston fan. You would get a standing ovation.
Been following Mike for quite some time ... this is one of his very best ... a terrific performance.
This is brilliant on so many levels, the vocals, the violin... its my new wake up song!
This is without a doubt , one of the coolest videos I have seen in a long time. You two need to go on the ROAD! Good God, I am surprised people aren't knocking down your door to sign you? Maybe they already have?
I remember when I first put the needle to my new Boston Album back in 1976 and this song played. I haven't heard any cover do it justice since then but this just did it nearly 40 years later!
just saw Mike last night with Sterling Cottam...THEY ARE AMAZING...last night they were in NYC...The Cutting Room, which is a nice venue...UNBELIEVABLY GOOD...Wish they would bring Jenny along!!!! I've either been to, or worked, 200 concerts give or take, including BOSTON several times...last night was a top 5 event for me - all time. It was that good...
WilsonEatsASMR i.. have to 100% agree.. wooooooow... ..just wow!
As good if not better than the original!
I totally agree with you. Not easy to copy Boston lead singer. My Favorite song from them in 70s..
Binge watching M. Massé after yesterday's first show in Montréal. (Sept, 6. 2019) Don't miss on the chance to see him live.
Very generous.
Always give back to your artist. (On stage.) You are the reason he/she is there. The more (energy) you feed them. The more they'll give you back.
Totally nailed. Awesome tribute to Delp.
A-ma-zing. Bradley is smiling up in heaven I imagine...
Mike, I'm from Brazil. Here we admire your talent. Continue to shine. I wish you much more success !!!
I've lost a daughter and son Yr half apart this rips my heart out x
Eargasmic!!! Love the whole video, the scenery is perfect.
40years ago it was more than a feeling to hear this wow 40years later brings back that feeling. Just as much if not a little More. Thanks
This is one of the best versions of More than a feeling that I have ever heard, you have an incredible voice, Mike!
WOW!!! I've listened to this song from the cradle. This is absolutely one of the best renditions i've ever heard!! Very very well done. Delps would be proud!!
You hit 'em. wtg!! Congrats! Well done and pure. Captured the Delps spirit as well.
AWESOME. Both of you. Just ... wow.
Also, if I had to watch Jenny walk away, I'm pretty sure I would cry.
Simply amazing. You're one of the best singers out there. No joke.
I'm speechless ... loved this song and YOUR cover !!!! Great job
Out of hundreds of you songs that I have listened to,I truly think that this is my favorite !!!!!!!!!
