@@patwilliams7114 Oh, Leo is the man for sure. I was just saying she plays in his videos too. His studio is in his house. She also has a band. Search no more, here is one for ya th-cam.com/video/ZjX8Tlx4FgY/w-d-xo.html
Actually do the toto version and Leo's version in the same video. But start with the original first. Hell do that with all of them that you choose to do. That should be a lot of fun.
KNOWN FACT: Adele hates this version because “it’s rock” UNKNOWN FACT: Adele hates this version because it’s better, just as (or more) popular and by somebody “nobody” knows
she didn’t say his specifically, but when this went viral, she was asked in an interview about “heavier rock versions” of her songs and she was NOT having it.
Same I love watching peole react to his songs for the first time because I wish I could forget I heard them and listen to them again for the first time.
Leo is the "Sugar Honey Iced Tea". Look up his version of Feel Good Inc. Only in Europe could you wander through an airport in a costume without security arresting you immediately
He plays all of the instruments (and I mean all, ongoing joke that Leo goes to a band tryout and they ask what he plays and he answers "yes") , sings all of the lyrics, films the video, mixes it all and uploads it... In 1 week. He literally puts out a new video every Friday. I see a lot of others have given you some great suggestions for more of his work. I would add Sultans of Swing and Dance Monkey.
He plays all the instruments in solo, then masters them all into one track, in his own studio. Total Badass. Check out his version of Rhianna's Umbrella :)
Leo is phenomenal I love him and yes he plays all of those instruments plus more (sometimes he has guest singers and others though) you need to check out his channel and all the other songs he has
Oh man, Leo is a character. You can spend hours combing through his channel watching one video after another. You're right, he doesn't take himself too seriously, like he did a metal cover of Baby Shark that has his daughter in the video with him. His stuff is fantastic.
Oh man. You just stumbled upon one of the greatest TH-cam musical talents. My favorite covers of his are Dire Straits "Sultans of swing" and Toto "Africa". Both songs are a duet with a guest female singer. You will not be disappointed!
Leo is a magical genius, Plays Guitar, drums, Bass, Keyboards & sings and just loves making music, all in good fun, The rabbit hole for Leo M is deep...Enjoy, Great review bro!
Leo has about 350 covers, and does a new one every week. Plays every instrument, including banjos, flute, kazoo.. even has a bike horn on his drum kit. The dude is a music genius!
Ok here’s the list for the rabbit hole. Africa, Feel Good, This is America, Duality and Bring the Noise with Hyro the Hero. Start with these. I’m looking forward to these fam!
I'd add one more in to that. Superstition. Leo came into Stevie Wonder like fire, and who the hell knew that Stevie wrote one of the funkiest metal riffs ever!
Welcome to the insane world of Leo. He uses freaky contact lenses, giant rabbit suit, hand puppets, plays everything. Has a huge library of stuff doing crazy stuff with the most unlikely changes. Of interest, since you have a daughter, he does some fun ones with his daughter who is about 5 -7 years old that is a must see. Dances with her and has a blast. He's is a blast for sure.
See! This man appreciates Mr. Leo. I love how the reaction is kinda blown away by a metal cover. This is how a reaction to this vid should be done, well done, sir. Well done.
Leo is amazing! He does play every instrument in this as well as many more. If you haven't taken the time to check out his channel do it and enjoy the Leo worm hole you end up in!
1) Leo is my fave TH-cam go to every Friday he drops a new cover - he metals it up massive, love it 2) I LOVE your reaction .. it's how I feel a LOT 3) Now I've got to watch all your stuff! 😘
I know about Leo for years now, and in the past people were like sceptical when I told them about his work and talent. He kicks ass, and I'm yet to hear a bad cover by him. I'm glad people are now coming around to what I've been saying for years.
What's so amazing about leo is all his talent in one and that every cover he does he doesn't ruin the song or chop it up like some do. Great reaction man!!
He plays every instrument in all of his songs. He does all kinds of huge covers. Endless amounts. I've been subscribed to his channel for 5 years and still haven't watched all of his videos. He is the most underrated badass musician in every aspect of rock music in my opinion. The first cover I ever heard from him was House of Pain Jump Around. You really need to check that video out. You will absolutely love it.
Just had to sub to your channel. I was just bouncing around reaction videos to Leo's stuff because I love to see people blown away by his musicianship. Then listening to you not only loving his stuff, but your love of music and life is awesome!!!
Another point taken, I’ve been saying that for many years. As a music fan and I was becoming a decent singer, until I got valley fever, I’ve been saying it for years, that metal singers are so underrated. To sing in tone and nice pitch while adding distortion to their voice is the hardest thing ever. To also still sing in key. Wow!
He playa every instrument you hear. Mixes everything you hear. He does everything hear and see plus the things you don’t see. It takes him a full week to make one video. He has several videos that show his work week. If you really like Leo check out that series and see exactly how much work he puts into just one video. If you can’t find them let me know and I’ll link them for you. But if you like this then you’ll like every video he produces. Most times his covers are much better than the originals. He also has videos of his live band concert tours. Yup he and his band tours Europe having the absolute best concerts. He’s awesome my friend.
Great reaction! Leo's the man. I saw people requesting "Africa." He also KILLS Robert Palmer's "Addicted to Love." This dude's just a pleasure to watch and listen to.
"How come the original wasn't this cool?"
You just described everything Leo has ever done.
yo you just nailed it right there with that comment.
Yup!
Truth
I could not have said it better!
Best comment in the history of the internet 🤘🤘🤘🤘
Do more Leo. He kills everything.
6 South EVERYTHING!!!
@@bowhuntr6825 EEEEEVERYTHING
he literally plays all, masters all, and within his studio
and all in a week
His wife plays too
@@nova467spanker Credit tends to go to the artist and not the people around. I will keep an eye out and see if she pops up?

@@nova467spanker first two notes and a head bang and I'm sold :)
You need to watch his Toto - Africa cover. And make sure to watch the outros on all his videos.
Actually do the toto version and Leo's version in the same video. But start with the original first. Hell do that with all of them that you choose to do. That should be a lot of fun.
@@timish71 that would be awesome
The outro on Africa is particularly good. It's so good, in fact, that they include it in their live shows.
The Africa outro is one of the most bitchin' riffs, I listen to it once in a while.
I am still waiting on leo to release albums of his outros, i would buy them in a heartbeat.
Leo is one of the best musicians on youtube, handsdown.
God like lol
This is a rabbit hole! Leo has so many great performances to view!
KNOWN FACT: Adele hates this version because “it’s rock”
UNKNOWN FACT: Adele hates this version because it’s better, just as (or more) popular and by somebody “nobody” knows
Does she really hate it? YIKES
she didn’t say his specifically, but when this went viral, she was asked in an interview about “heavier rock versions” of her songs and she was NOT having it.
People that can keep notes while distorting their voices, are a special breed of Person, cut from a different cloth.
His energy is SO addictive... he is just having so much fun in everything he does.
Yes! I love it when people discover Leo for the first time. Its always amazing
Same I love watching peole react to his songs for the first time because I wish I could forget I heard them and listen to them again for the first time.
Anyone who can make the wheels on the bus children's song Rock like he does is my hero.
Don't forget baby shark.and hakuna matata. With the pillow fight mosh pit
"Freedom to do whatever you want to do, and make people happy." I am with you brother on that one. It's something you can't put a price on.
Leo is GREAT... check out Africa.... Along with the after post...
That's my favorite Leo cover!
The outro is a must if you do africa!
Another vote for Africa. And watch the outro too! So good!
the outro is a must, most miss it.
Yes!!!! Glad you finally got to Leo!!! Can’t wait to see you react to more of his covers!!!
Leo is the "Sugar Honey Iced Tea". Look up his version of Feel Good Inc. Only in Europe could you wander through an airport in a costume without security arresting you immediately
It was in a giant mall, the biggest from one in Norway actually.
Of course they asked, but much harder to get a yes in some places
Leo is the TRUTH! If you pick any of his songs, you're gonna have a good time!
Leo plays ALL the instruments...sings...arranges..and produces all the songs. He owns his own recording studio.
Leo is a beast... been watching loving and laughing for years now.
Leo is simply AMAZING as a musician
Leo has that "something extra" that most other musicians simply dream about.
Oh man his version of Africa by Toto is amazing... really everything he does is amazing
He plays all of the instruments (and I mean all, ongoing joke that Leo goes to a band tryout and they ask what he plays and he answers "yes") , sings all of the lyrics, films the video, mixes it all and uploads it... In 1 week. He literally puts out a new video every Friday. I see a lot of others have given you some great suggestions for more of his work. I would add Sultans of Swing and Dance Monkey.
Oh yeah, and he even does work it by Missy Elliott
Anything Leo does is pure gold man
Leo can even rock Frozen's "Let it go"
And the macarena too lol
He is the ONLY reason I can even stand that song now. I rock out in my truck with it almost daily now
@@jefferyrohrbaugh1593 #Respect
Don't forget he does "Baby Shark" with his daughter as well.
Yes, all and more.. Dude is mind blowing!
Found this dude a couple years ago, so fun!! He has so many amazing covers, any others you react to will be fire
He plays everything, sings, does his own editing and production.. as far as I know he does a lot of it on his own. :)
Hell yeah Leo rocks everything he does. He needs way more exposure than what he gets.
That is one of his greatest covers. He does a bunch of them and they are great. This is the only version of this song to ever listen to
All of his covers are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Leo rocks I agree he pulls you in because you can tell he is having fun and that’s what it’s all about... he is very talented as well 🙏
This is the first song I ever heard from Leo and fell in love. Yes he can play all instruments and even made Baby Shark sound cool as hell
LFR: Does he play all instruments?
Leo: YES!
Chandelier and Dance Monkey are my fav Leo songs
He plays all the instruments in solo, then masters them all into one track, in his own studio. Total Badass. Check out his version of Rhianna's Umbrella :)
Leo is phenomenal I love him and yes he plays all of those instruments plus more (sometimes he has guest singers and others though) you need to check out his channel and all the other songs he has
He is one of the masters of rock. You'll love all his work.
Leo is a master. More of him please.
He plays all parts. Genius
Awesome. Know his work well. Great choice!!!
This is a huge rabbit hole you need to go down. And yes, he plays all the instruments.
Oh man, Leo is a character. You can spend hours combing through his channel watching one video after another. You're right, he doesn't take himself too seriously, like he did a metal cover of Baby Shark that has his daughter in the video with him. His stuff is fantastic.
Brother, you NAILED it! Exactly the same reasons I like this guy - talented incredibly... but he doesn't take himself seriously... just loves music.
I love leo, and all his super talented friends, they are all funny and phenomenal. Thank you for your great reaction
the answer is YES. (he plays them all... including tuba, kazoo, kitchen sink, kettle drums, a one string guitar, and the list goes on...)
Most all his metal covers are pretty awesome. Need to go down his rabbit hole of covers for sure, especially with the kids.
Hell yes Leo is cool as HELL! Crazy talented and creative too! Tons of fantastic covers!!
Oh man. You just stumbled upon one of the greatest TH-cam musical talents.
My favorite covers of his are Dire Straits "Sultans of swing" and Toto "Africa". Both songs are a duet with a guest female singer.

He's been banging these gems out for years.
Leo has about 350 covers, and does a new one every week. Plays every instrument, including banjos, flute, kazoo.. even has a bike horn on his drum kit. The dude is a music genius!
This is still, and will remain, the only version of 'hello' I have heard. Leo is a beast!
Ok here’s the list for the rabbit hole. Africa, Feel Good, This is America, Duality and Bring the Noise with Hyro the Hero. Start with these. I’m looking forward to these fam!
Bad Guy, Insane in the Brain, Jump Around, Let it go, Hakuna Matata, Cotton Eye Joe, Fatty Boom Boom, ...
Gotta add sultans of swing to that list
All... just all of them
I'd add one more in to that. Superstition. Leo came into Stevie Wonder like fire, and who the hell knew that Stevie wrote one of the funkiest metal riffs ever!
I'll add one more to that. No Diggity. That one was just hilariously dope.

3) Now I've got to watch all your stuff! 😘
Thank you for your kind words, encouragement, advice, and great content. May God please bless you and your efforts
If you were hating him for his talent before, wait until you realize that he does his covers at a rate of about 1/week.
Bravo et merci, d'avoir bien cerné cet artiste qui fait tout lui même et avec beaucoup de talent, tout comme il transmets son amour de la Musique
Lllooovvveee LEO!!
Your reactions reminded me of myself when I listen to awesome music. Rock on my friend 🤘🎧
Leo is great! Excellent musically on a variety of instruments and he has fun doing it!
He is sooo cool! I' ve seen him live with his band and they are amazing!
Leo also did a metal version of Thriller.

His Africa cover! Definitely! And make sure to watch the outro on it. Pure fire!
LEO MORACCHIOLI is music, he plays everything.
"Hey Leo, what instruments do you play?" "Yes"
I love peoples first reactions to Leo songs and yours would have to be one of the best
Just had to sub to your channel. I was just bouncing around reaction videos to Leo's stuff because I love to see people blown away by his musicianship. Then listening to you not only loving his stuff, but your love of music and life is awesome!!!
This cover is proof that some songs are born to be metal. It's just that the original author didn't realize it
Everytime I hear this cover I smile. Great reaction!!!
Another point taken, I’ve been saying that for many years.

Been into Leo's music for a few years now. Dude is bad ass.
I met Leo last year at Wacken. I found him casually walking around the field. Such a friendly dude!
I just headbanged to Adele!! 😊😊
So glad you did this! O freaking LOVE LOVE LOVE LEO!
A great reaction, and wise words at the end. Now off to see your reaction to Leo's Africa cover. :)
You have to check out his cover of Elastic heart!!! He’s awesome!
X going to give it to you is my favorite cover by him
This reaction video is as awesome as Leo's video! I love the respect man! It's great for artists to react to other artists!
Love seeing you sing along, he is inspiration. Appreciate you
You should see Leo Moracchioli and Violet Orlandi do the metal cover for Roxette's "Listen To Your Heart". It's AWESOME
Leo has many videos that are awesome dude. Sultans of Swing cover or the milli vanilli - girl you know it’s true cover we’re amazing!! Lol
music, the one thing that brings us all together!
New subscriber just from this video!! HUGE Leo fan and yes he does play ALL the instruments so much talent in one man

Fucking LOVE Leo! One of my favorite internet distractions!
Thanks so much for reacting to this!
You definitely need to fall down the Leo Moracchioli/Frog Leap Studios rabbit hole!
