Ditto! I can't stop! I had to stop sharing them on FB, I didn't want to spam! This cover, though, is the first I found a bit lacking. Mainly because I love the original and I feel it can't be improved upon. Everything else I've seen has been wicked fun!
Leo, I've been playing guitar for about 30 years, have seen many, many concerts in the US and Europe, and have move cds, vinyl, cassettes and mp3s then I'm willing to admit... and I have to say you are one of my Top Ten musicians out of everyone. Keep up the awesome music, bro.
yo man... No words for what i see... i play music for more than 25 years and i'm voiceless. You are @ least the half of a god..... Will inspire my entire music life from u till now :o Thanks to open my mind like this
This is fucking entertaining. I mean, I don't normally click on the author's link, but I think i've gone through like 9 or 10 of your videos and I can't fucking get enough. Ice Ice baby, Gostbusters, Chandeleir, Rolling in the Deep, Let it Go, fuck man you take me places I've never been You've also caused me to hog a half bottle of Antonov blackcurrant vodka when I should have stopped two shots ago. SHOULD HAVE FUCKING STOPPED TWO SHOTS AGO. I LOVE YOU MAN My soul shall ride upon the thunder of your voice for many a day
Person: so who's in you band Leo: me Person: okay, so who's your lead vocalist Leo: me Person: who's your guitarist Leo: me Person: drummer Leo: me Person: bass Leo: that's also me, any more questions Person: nope
Leo has more talent in his pinky finger than 95% of the pop artist that dominate the radio these days...You’re unbelievably talented my friend and I’m a fan!🤘🤘
I can not express any more how much this guy is sooo talent beyond belief.. Unfrickin real talented.. some of the songs he's redone I couldn't give to shits for.. now I listen to his version of them.. keep up the hard work sir...and we will keep listening bud.. we I know I will.. and I bet there's more people out there that will to..
Went and bought both this and Poker Face off loudr, shared on my facebook page, so hopefully you'll get some more subs. I would pay good money to listen to a full album of metal covers like this, by far the best renditions I've ever heard. Just about every Euro metal band does a half decent cover at some point, but yours blow them all away. Plus, one man band...fuck yeah.
Duude, you're fucking awesome! Not only do you have amazing skills in all those instruments + singing, but you are an editing genius, awesome work man (y)
just became a huge fan of your music. you have amazing talent and have a great taste in music (the 9 metal rock songs) definitely gonna show you to everyone I know! your metal covers rock and crack me up!
Your musicianship and talent are second to none in my book. In an age where much of music is a computer and a celebrity you refuse to join that club. Keep up the good work! I really enjoy the humor too. Personally Im not a huge metal head and my favorites are the ones that you add layered guitars and bass to while still singing the melody. especially when you throw in a harmony. I realize of course that many songs dont lend themselves to such treatment. A couple of my favorites are Carry On my wayward son and the 80’s flux V capacitor flash dance/Maniac. Thanks again Leo!
definitely the best metal cover i've heard! im so glad the sounds are so clear, too, because im addicted to this ♥♥♥ i can't NOT subscribe! thanks so much for this, aaaahhhh ♥♥♥
I've got the acoustic version of Take on Me on repeat lately and was reading up on it on Lyric Genius. Someone mentioned this cover, so I came here. Brilliant. Subbed.
American Texan, prior Army Combat Soldier ... You guy's rock. ... Just found you and saved a bunch of your songs to my playlist to jam out to in the truck. Keep them coming, please.
you do a great job bring back to us classics with new ... how can i say .... flavor, taste, spices , , well a new form to great songs from the past , thank you very much!
Yeah, he's easily one of the most talented musical acts I've ever seen on youtube. Fame awaits. It's not enough to be supremly talented Leo needs a business plan to translate that into cash. For your own sake go and get someone to help you translate your musical talent.
My two favorite covers of this song are both done by Norwegian's. (Leo's cover and the Pellek-Erock cover) It seems Norway is quite good at exporting bad ass metal.
The unapologetic, sarcastic, over the top performance,epic facial expressions, and talent..if you toured with me first and the gimme gimme, I'd pay dollars to see it
I just found you out, and am an old metal bass player, and I think you are doing an excellent , respectful, job on putting an amazing metal spin on the covers you do, and keeping them alive for the younger kids to discover, keep it up!
I know this is forever and a day since this video was posted but I have been listening to A LOT of Queen lately... and when I heard 'Don't Stop Me Now', I immediately thought "hmm, I wonder what Frog Leap Studios could do with this?". So if you guys ever see this, please consider this being among your future covers. I personally love your work and think you guys could really rock it out and do justice to their original song.
only you Leo and leap frog productions can take an iconic 80s sissy song and make it badass thank you sir and once again I got an epileptic seizure watching you I always have to turn down my speakers down to two otherwise they'll blow up again thanks again sir I enjoy your work hope to see more of you
I got pulled over by a cop that just wanted to know who was doing this song the other day. Spent almost an hour showing him your stuff and I made a new friend. Thanks Leo!
YOU SIR are a damn genius! (The real kind, not the Apple kind). I've already bought a few of your covers, and wish you could come out with more ASAP! Well fucking done. Respect from Toronto, Canada!
Frog Leap Studios My pleasure! Any schmuck can do a punk/metal cover of a pop song but you really made it seem like these could have been written as originals. I would drum for you ANYDAY!
Completely random this, but I just put you through Akinator to see if he could guess who you were. Apparently you are famous enough for him to be able to :D
Leo, I would like you can play a cover form the song , Major Tom-PeterSchilling. I think would be a great performance. greettings from Pachuca, México!!
Dude, you might be the one person that gets me back into listening to music. All the songs I used to love to hate you are shredding and making me listen to them over and over. WTF?! I might buy some of your stuff, this rules. SLAYER!
Hi Leo, the patron site says 1$ pero video, would that mean I'd be charged with the total amount of videos x $1? meaning if you have 60 videos, I'd be charged $60?
ABBA is Swedish, A-HA are definitely Norwegian. Aqua are both Norwegian and Danish, but I'd much rather let Denmark take all of the credit for that one.
dude.......duuuuude...holey sheet dude. I think this is actually maybe a leo top 15...I couldn't appreciate this song so much til I heard the acoustic mtv version-so lovely. now that i can get a feeling for the song i think you hit a home run, leo!!
Whenever I want to hear the lyrics of a song in clear, easily-understood English, I turn to a Norwegian metal musician.
That is something you are or not
This is the best quote ever. You Win.
kafka? cottonelle .. .. thats a lot of flops
Chent Chent
duuroyoot
you know what's actually funny is the band aha is norwegian as well
So true.... I've listened to some songs and thought "oh that's the right words"
I only discovered this channel about an hour ago and have been binge watching since. It's so entertaining, funny and just brilliant. Don't stop!
Pherotone Studios same
Yeah!
What he said....only 5 months behind
Just one day behind but its unbelieveblement gooooood
Ditto! I can't stop! I had to stop sharing them on FB, I didn't want to spam! This cover, though, is the first I found a bit lacking. Mainly because I love the original and I feel it can't be improved upon. Everything else I've seen has been wicked fun!
He makes me want to play an instrument. His arrangements are really making me understand the meaning of rock.
Rock is alive and well, and kicking @$$ in this guys studio!
This is how you make real music 😂
A Norwegian metal head doing a metal version of one of Norway' most iconic pop songs. You just can't get any better than this.
Finally! A version of this song where I can understand the words! All your covers are great, Leo. Thanks for sharing your talent.
This is my favorite channel on TH-cam. Thank you for making my life a living paradise. God bless you, Leo. God bless you.
Take on me(tal)
good one xD
(YES)
Genius
That made me laugh
아재다
Leo, I've been playing guitar for about 30 years, have seen many, many concerts in the US and Europe, and have move cds, vinyl, cassettes and mp3s then I'm willing to admit... and I have to say you are one of my Top Ten musicians out of everyone. Keep up the awesome music, bro.
Nice of you to say
Stumbled onto Leo today... watched for an hour... can't stop... ;)
This has just happened to me...
WELL DONBT! NOBODY ELSE WILL.
Same here! been at it for 1.5 days...
Yep I’ve been watching or listening all day
Welcome to your new addiction
Who would dislike this video? They obviously don't recognize a good cover when they experience one. Excellent work!
The best part is between 0:00 to 4:22
+Vexivian Vivian you said it!
No, it's 4:23, cause then you get the replay button XD
+Syllavr I got u ;]

TheChampOfWar Słomka Awwwww, thanks man!! EXACTLY what I needed!
nope :P Just right click on video and select "Loop" :P
This dude is extremely talented. He has more musical talent in his pinky toe than I do in my entire body lol.
Stumbled upon Leo accidentally flipping through TH-cam the other day. So glad I did this guy is awesome
To skip to the good part, click this here timestamp (0:00) and watch to 4:22
Every song he does ;)
Amusing.
Funny, but Wrong...!
yes, it is all good
Noice!
Leo's videos bring a smile to my face. I love his Metal covers
yo man... No words for what i see... i play music for more than 25 years and i'm voiceless.
You are @ least the half of a god.....
Will inspire my entire music life from u till now :o
Thanks to open my mind like this

James nice man,you made my day😂😂😂😂😂😂
Cheers!
my brain hearts reading this.....but James i feel ya and ive been there a few times!!!!
Insane that one man is so full of talent
I love this guy’s creativity. He is a musical genius. His singing is subpar, but the instrumentals make up for where his voice lacks.
Thanks to this dude.. i moved to Norway. BEST choice ever. Just learn the language ...... BEST COUNTRY EVER.
Person: so who's in you band
Leo: me
Person: okay, so who's your lead vocalist
Leo: me
Person: who's your guitarist
Leo: me
Person: drummer
Leo: me
Person: bass
Leo: that's also me, any more questions
Person: nope
What instrument do you play?
Leo: Yes.
Person: What do you do?
Leo: Definitely
And the keyboard
He's a real-life Willy Wonka.
Clones.
Seeing you rock out so wildly with a smile on your face fills me with joy.
This is a masterpiece my friend!! Probably the best one I've heard so far. You've quickly become my new favorite..."band??"
Leo has more talent in his pinky finger than 95% of the pop artist that dominate the radio these days...You’re unbelievably talented my friend and I’m a fan!🤘🤘

Oscar Nieves Thanks Oscar!
Frog Leap Studios a song I'd love to see you do in TLC no scrubs.
Frog Leap Studios Bonfire by Knife Party
@@leolego I would love to hear your version of Devo's Gates of Steel! That would be better!
Stumbled on you accidentally. You are my new favorite band!!! So awesome! And even better cause you can see how much fun you're having doing it
Yeah man, thanks!
I love this song, and the various versions I’ve heard over the years. Well done.
just became a huge fan of your music. you have amazing talent and have a great taste in music (the 9 metal rock songs) definitely gonna show you to everyone I know! your metal covers rock and crack me up!
Joseph Korzeniewski Cool, thanks!
Dude, you are insanely talented! Thank you for sharing.
How is this dude not a superstar already?!?
Your musicianship and talent are second to none in my book. In an age where much of music is a computer and a celebrity you refuse to join that club. Keep up the good work!

Almost 5 years later and this is still one of, if not, the best Leo covers.
All of these 80's redo's you have done have me just loving it. Dude you f'ing rock!!!
...and just like that, I love this song again.
definitely the best metal cover i've heard! im so glad the sounds are so clear, too, because im addicted to this ♥♥♥ i can't NOT subscribe! thanks so much for this, aaaahhhh ♥♥♥
0ChaoticChaos0 Thanks a lot:)
0ChaoticChaos0 check out Emil bulls cover of this
+0ChaoticChaos0 also check out a-ha version
The best 1 is 331erock
In my opinion this is a Godlike guitar riff in the middle of the song. Amazing!!!
Leo: releases a metal cover of Take on Me in 2014
Also Leo: keeps ranking in search 10 years later 😍
Right, timeless!!
Everytime I log on to youtube I find a new song that he has improved.
I've got the acoustic version of Take on Me on repeat lately and was reading up on it on Lyric Genius. Someone mentioned this cover, so I came here. Brilliant. Subbed.
My childhood is shook.. Good Job
I love the fact that A-Ha's farewell tour was the highest grossing tour in Europe the year it took place.
American Texan, prior Army Combat Soldier ... You guy's rock. ... Just found you and saved a bunch of your songs to my playlist to jam out to in the truck. Keep them coming, please.
you do a great job bring back to us classics with new ... how can i say .... flavor, taste, spices , , well a new form to great songs from the past , thank you very much!
definitely one of my favorites Leo!
E meu Deus que voz to viciada nessa voz divina ♡♡♡♡
I love the way you so kill this tune..
Such a great song and a great cover by Leo. He does the metal transformation but keeps the song and melody recognizable. Well done.
I honestly never knew the lyrics to this song until I heard your version. Thanks.
Seriously, how have you only got 11k subs. I mean, don't get me wrong 11,000 is impressive but you should be WAY bigger!
Working on it so please spread the word:)
Frog Leap Studios Added you to my featured channels list.
Thanks man!
Yeah, he's easily one of the most talented musical acts I've ever seen on youtube.
Fame awaits. It's not enough to be supremly talented Leo needs a business plan to translate that into cash. For your own sake go and get someone to help you translate your musical talent.
Frog Leap Studios Just got yourself a new sub. Damn that's some impressive work! Definetely sharing aswell ;)
My two favorite covers of this song are both done by Norwegian's. (Leo's cover and the Pellek-Erock cover) It seems Norway is quite good at exporting bad ass metal.
etrix tgreat I Agree ☝️

Idk why but I got some MCR vibes listening to this, especially at the end. Anyone else? Amazing cover, as usual.
i definitely got that
Holy simmers!!! I loved the original and this is even better, Norway rocks!!!
NORGE!!!
i gree...
same here !
Still my favorite cover. Need to do more 80s pop. Maybe "your love"
I know this is forever and a day since this video was posted but I have been listening to A LOT of Queen lately... and when I heard 'Don't Stop Me Now', I immediately thought "hmm, I wonder what Frog Leap Studios could do with this?".
So if you guys ever see this, please consider this being among your future covers. I personally love your work and think you guys could really rock it out and do justice to their original song.

Dritfett som vanlig.. Blir glad av å se/høre videoene dine :D
Takk for det!
Leo can thrash on anything plus he can dance better than Beyonce. There is literally nothing he can not do.
Power level 9000
Sempre achei que a versão heavy metal ficaria muito boa ! E ficou !!!
I can't stop coming back for that crazy string harmonic followed by the world record setting pick scrape!
I got pulled over by a cop that just wanted to know who was doing this song the other day. Spent almost an hour showing him your stuff and I made a new friend. Thanks Leo!
You earned a new subscriber. This is amazing seriously
Holy crap! Unexpected twist on a classic! 10 out of 10 :)
This reminds me of the band CKY so much :). Awesome job man!!! Love it!
+King of Soup he reminded me of raab himself haha
As if I'm just reborn and listening to music for the first time !!
YOU JUST GIVE LIFE TO EVERYTHING WE KNOW
You have a gift. You have no idea how happy I am that you’re sharing it. Just found you and binge listening from the states❤️
Legit exactly my thoughts. I did the same when I stumbled across Leo. Now I tell all my work mates and share him with whomever can!
ITUNES!!! you need to be on there! I would like to buy your music.
+Scott Dangel Its there, links in the video description:)
+Scott Dangel Puede capitalizar su magia. Lo debería de hacer,
I'll take 20!
YOU SIR are a damn genius! (The real kind, not the Apple kind). I've already bought a few of your covers, and wish you could come out with more ASAP! Well fucking done. Respect from Toronto, Canada!
Thanks! new one coming this friday:)
Frog Leap Studios My pleasure! Any schmuck can do a punk/metal cover of a pop song but you really made it seem like these could have been written as originals. I would drum for you ANYDAY!
Completely random this, but I just put you through Akinator to see if he could guess who you were. Apparently you are famous enough for him to be able to :D
Damn, that's when you know you're famous.
Fuckin Akinator dude! I know that program
+Ric Bülow And what does Akinator say? :D
+Ramona B it took in my run 68 questions and 2 answers were wrong. :) but yes akinator know him!!
i put his daughter through akinator, AND AKINATOR DIDN'T KNOW WHO SHE WAS. HA me 1, akinator 0
I looked for some metal Xmas songs and stumbled across this guy....He's fookin awesome!
I'm going to be honest with you people....this guy is fricken awesome!!!!!! This dudes talent is though the roof.
best cover ever
Leo, I would like you can play a cover form the song , Major Tom-PeterSchilling. I think would be a great performance.
greettings from Pachuca, México!!
The best youtube channel I have experienced since youtube began
100% confirmed
Dude, you might be the one person that gets me back into listening to music. All the songs I used to love to hate you are shredding and making me listen to them over and over. WTF?! I might buy some of your stuff, this rules. SLAYER!
I hate how uber talented you are bro! You can play just about anything, and a great guy to boot. I'm proud to be a patron.
Hi Leo, the patron site says 1$ pero video, would that mean I'd be charged with the total amount of videos x $1? meaning if you have 60 videos, I'd be charged $60?
No, pr video from the day you sign up:)
+Frog Leap Studios leo you're awesome
+Frog Leap Studios I know your a busy guy know days but if you have time do a "awolnation sail" cover. I think you would do it justice. Thank you.
+IrishHooligan I second this.
Also, I think "Don't Turn Around" by Ace of Base would be a cool song to cover.
"Don't Turn Around" by Ace of Base was ALSO a cover...Tina Turner originally did it!! But yes, that would be a GREAT song for this channel!
Dude it would be awesome if you did Devil Went Down To Georgia!!
Seth Henning yeeeesss!!! thounsands times yeeeesss!!!
YESSSS
I agree
As do I.
Seth Henning imagine mine diamonds as a heavy metal song, that would hilarious
*80's pop combined with 80's metal intensifies*
Thanks for your energy on covering the classics. Glad to see the passion that the songs arise in all of us expressed.
Please please come to Portland Maine... We love you in Maine.. we have one of the best alternative music scenes around.
“Dude we should start a band” nah I’ll just play all the instruments myself.
all better than the originals..please keep doing it!!!
ROCK NEVER DIES!!!!✊✊✊
its metal
Norwegians covering Norwegians, how perverse. *C-3PO*
Elestro Air-soft But A - HA is Swedish
Roman Martin a-ha is from Norway
ABBA is Swedish, A-HA are definitely Norwegian. Aqua are both Norwegian and Danish, but I'd much rather let Denmark take all of the credit for that one.
I'm Swedish, A-ha is Norwegian. So is Leo. Everyone on board? ^^
@emil Faren hans er fra Italia, mor fra Norge. Han er født og oppvokst i Norge. Derfor, ''rart'' etternavn.
dude.......duuuuude...holey sheet dude. I think this is actually maybe a leo top 15...I couldn't appreciate this song so much til I heard the acoustic mtv version-so lovely. now that i can get a feeling for the song i think you hit a home run, leo!!
I love your energy. If this is what you love, then please don't stop doing it.
most exelent cover man!!! Awesome song to start with!
You're awesome! How do you do it? It's a beard thing, right?
ZeroneAngel Shit, you got me..
Frog Leap Studios how did you grow such a awesome beard?
I'm no expert but a qualified guess would be: "do NOT shave"
ZeroneAngel you my Friend. Just made my day
Thank you.
if this was the way A-ha had played it, they would still be making new music today.
That’s an over statement lol
Living legend right here.
I would have never in a million years thought this song would sound good as a metal song. But damn as hell if it does.
Ficou incrível😍
Best cover of this song ever!!!!!!
Listened to Weezer's cover then had to come over here again to remind myself of how a REAL cover should sound. Thx Leo.
It's 2022 and I'm watching Frog Leap Studios Leo Covers Play List. I think this is one of my favorites so far!
Someone needs to sign this talented young man!
Best Cover Of Best Classic ! Only Leo Can Do It ! XD
