how is this possible? who are you? what planet are you from? i mean this is one kid playing Eddie, Alex and Michael's part more accurate then ive ever heard any cover by anyone. EVER! You my friend are insanely gifted. Made me smile and made my day seeing and hearing this.
@@brianperreault1374 musically. my mother was the music listener which is where i first heard Jim Croce, Alabama, John Denver, Bread, The Eagles, Carol King, James Taylor. then my first band i experienced or later discovered around 11 maybe was KISS
@@s.f.morris7331 Funny, I'm watching an Eagles documentary now :) Well young man, you are an extraordinary talent. Both you and your parents should be proud. I have 6 & 8 year old boys, a wall of guitars, drums, and the hopes they too are interested.
There is NO ONE on TH-cam who can touch this. This is the best cover on the planet. It also swung really hard. I'm just speechless. Nothing else to say, as there are no words left!!!!!
I'm a 50+-year-old Gen X'er and a product of the '80s. I had to privilege of seeing VH play live no fewer than 10 times, and your cover simply blew my mind away! Amazing talent and I appreciate you sharing it with the rest of us. Your talent is God's gift to you, but what you've done with it is your gift to God. Keep on grinding!
Um if I may. I picked up bass, drums, guitar, piano around 14, learned all to write and record my own music. I was fortunate to be raised with a parent who had a very nice stereo system in 1977 thru the first almost 10 years of growing up. Van Halen was played a lot. MTV just came out. My dad was playing 1984 on vinyl. I’m not into covers or cover bands so much. But when done. They should be done with taste, accuracy and respect. I’ve been trying find drum covers for years even guitar covers just to see what Eddie and the band did. Haven’t found one! Until now and GUITAR! BASS! AND DRUMS!! Dude ! Perfection. The mix is perfect. The footage great! Tones are great! Wow! Thank you! Now the world can see how it was done. Because if I’m not mistaken this is as spot on as the recording!! What a good job Owen!! Wow! For the time this song was written, they deserved the fortune and fame. Timeless original. Nothing like it!
Now THAT is a tribute. As a Van Halen fan since 1979 and having seen them live up close and personal a few times I've gotta say watching you play that gave me a new appreciation for how amazing Eddie and the boys were.
I truly believe that he is from another planet! Watching him play the drum parts flawless and add in his guitar playing if anyone says anything negative about this kid then they truly do not see just how amazing this kid is
The fun thing about life is not getting used to the small things, like incredible people. No matter how much "talented" people I see, I'll always be impressed by them. I'll not be impressed by people who do the same as the others, but by peope who make it their own way. You have your own way, your style and that's amazing!
Are you freekin kidding me? How did i just find out abut you? My 12 yro son has been playing VH in my car for a while now when we drive...i absolutely cant wait to show him this! Dude you are amazing! Would love to hear you play something of your very own. To me you are just that good. Cliffs of dover? Really? Metallica medleys unbelievable. I'm floored.
I grew up your same age ( I'm only 32 now) playing multi instruments and same type of music! This made me feel so good! You really rock man, keep it up!
😊so true. Not sure why all his videos aren’t much higher . His epic pink floyd cover is at only 5600 views. It is probably the best cover of that song on TH-cam
Your name will be in big bright lights very soon. Enjoy the ride. The way you make all of this look so easy is remarkable. Having been a guitarist for 59 years now, I can only imagine how many 1000s of hours you have studied and practised every instrument. Owen, you are mind-blowing. Mind-bending. Makes me happy just watching a guy your age so focused and having so much fun. Thanks for that. 😎🙏🎸
If I were to just listen to this and not watch the vid I would think I was listening to Eddie and the boys. Keep it up Owen you are an incredible talent .
You've developed so much confidence, especially on the drums. I can hear your progress since your beginnings, it went from "freaking impressive" to "literally flawless". Congrats, and keep going!
Okay, so I'm a drummer right? I only play drums. And so I can say firsthand that the galloping double kick pedal is extremely hard to play well. Like REALLY hard!!!! And then I see this kid who plays it as well as EVERY OTHER INSTRUMENT!!! He recreated Eddie Van Halen. That is a feat that almost nobody can even dream about getting close to. And he did it perfectly on every instrument. At like what 15? I am Appalled.
I finally had the chance to sit and listen to this carefully. I heard so many details I didn't catch the first time. Great job Owen. From the positive comments I've read through, I can see just how widespread the agreement is that you are ever improving. Thanks for letting me be part of the journey.
If I even for one second think I'm any good as a guitarist or drummer, all I have to do is watch you and I am immediately humbled to the point of feeling like an amatuer! I don't know what planet you came from Owen, but you set the bar higher than most of us musicians can reach. Your gear is top-notch too - no wonder you sound so awesome! Keep rockin' buddy, you should be on stage performing for thousands of fans! I'm sure Eddie is now a big fan of you!
You are a rare talent. The sound and tone are absolute perfection. I would love to hear "Enter Sandman". You have many fun years ahead. Looking forward to seeing what you'll create.
Just stumbled across your channel. Let me tell you something young man, you already have an aspect of talent with music that is the part that cannot be taught. You feel it and have it in you. I know you are not just going through the motions. All the best of luck to you in all your pursuits. It’s very inspirational to hear you play!!!
The only way to top this would be to learn the lyrics as well and play the song in your school yard :D you have great talent, love your cover of Dream Theater too. 👍
Honestly looked away from my phone for a second and thought I was listening to the original, this is amazing
This kid is criminally under viewed!
People! Stop looking! You won't find a better cover. EVER!!
That's exactly what I was thinking after looking at a few cringey ones. Stopping now before I find some soft, downtempo, breathy version.
Walp ... here it is, the cringiest ...

I appreciate the attention to the actual production, making everything sound similar to the recordings
Manages to perfectly mimic (arguably) the best drummer AND the best guitarist in rock and roll history.
Anyone else insanely jealous?
I am a 52yr old VH fan and you just blew my mind. That sounded awesome. WOW, off to pick up the rest of my brains. WOW!
I'm proud just to know you live in the same planet I do.
There is NO ONE on TH-cam who can touch this. This is the best cover on the planet. It also swung really hard. I'm just speechless. Nothing else to say, as there are no words left!!!!!
this is actually insane
It's hard to wrap your ahead it, in'nt ???
Boy he has his future secured now.. More power 2 him. I know eddie and alex would be happy to hear him
3 people didn't like this video... David, Lee and Roth.
I dunno, I'm sure Dave already has this kid's demo package...
Lol

Another young teen with "old soul".. respect!!!
I'm 3 years late, but this is INSANE. If you don't instantly subscribe what's wrong with you?
I always believed that a person great at percussion can also be great with any instrument. Solid timing and accuracy. My goodness!
Shit he's one of the best musicians in the world and this young lol.Owen Savey you are an unbelievable talent!!
Nailed it dude! As much as EVH is a musical genius his brother Alex makes VH songs swing like no other. RIP EVH.
Their bass player is a bad-ass to!
I don't get people that aren't into Alex 🤔
Um if I may. I picked up bass, drums, guitar, piano around 14, learned all to write and record my own music.

Haven’t found one! Until now and GUITAR! BASS! AND DRUMS!!
Dude ! Perfection. The mix is perfect. The footage great! Tones are great! Wow! Thank you! Now the world can see how it was done.
Because if I’m not mistaken this is as spot on as the recording!!
What a good job Owen!!
Wow!
For the time this song was written, they deserved the fortune and fame.
Timeless original. Nothing like it!
Well said
Thank you!
I discovered you about 30 minutes ago and I can't believe that you don't have millions of views and subscribers.
I know, right?!! ❤
Not only is the playing perfect, but the tone is phenomenal on every instrument. Insane dude.
Now THAT is a tribute. As a Van Halen fan since 1979 and having seen them live up close and personal a few times I've gotta say watching you play that gave me a new appreciation for how amazing Eddie and the boys were.

This is ridiculously amazing. How in the world do you not have millions of views on your videos?
I truly believe that he is from another planet!
Watching him play the drum parts flawless and add in his guitar playing if anyone says anything negative about this kid then they truly do not see just how amazing this kid is
Holy shit, I need help picking my jaw up off the floor. How fricken good was that, Absolutely outstanding. Holy shit! That was so fantastic.
Sheer perfection!! Eddie would be proud!! Rest In Peace Eddie. Love you Owen!!

I hope your son is inspired to pick up an instrument.)
He started with piano. Has been at that for a little over a year.
@@jimudelhofen3164 owen started with piano as well.
One word to describe this cover. Kickass.
even the out of tune end!~ Brilliant.
I grew up your same age ( I'm only 32 now) playing multi instruments and same type of music! This made me feel so good! You really rock man, keep it up!
I have been surfing the tube for years watching musicians and you are simply the best I have ever seen. Thank you!!! Wow!!! Pure Excellence!
Wow, thanks!
Holy shit Owen! Absolutely INSANE!
This cover is so good that TH-cam’s own DMCA software tagged this as a VH song (despite it being a self performed cover)
No words, just genius
How does this not have over 1M views??!!
Truly amazing as many have said here Eddie would be proud!
😊so true. Not sure why all his videos aren’t much higher . His epic pink floyd cover is at only 5600 views. It is probably the best cover of that song on TH-cam
This is incredible.
Pure genius my friend...pure genius.
Absolutely magnificent. Talent pours from you.
Where did you go? We need more of your covers and you need more exposure!!!!!
I can say without a doubt this is THE BEST cover I've heard

EXCELENT 👍👍👍
OUTSTANDING!!
You nailed every nuance of each instrument throughout the entire song!
I finally had the chance to sit and listen to this carefully. I heard so many details I didn't catch the first time. Great job Owen.

Thanks Jason, It really is inspiring how many positive comments they are
Bro seriously it’s over a year ago now I need another Owen fix. Don’t leave me hanging mate. I’ll keep waiting.
I think you will see new stuff from him soon. He has been posting a bunch of guitar stuff on tik tok in the last year.
This young man is the future of KEEPING Rock -n- Roll Alive. Freaking Awesome Big MAN !!!!!!!!!!
Outstanding!!!
Holy crap! Awesome!
If I even for one second think I'm any good as a guitarist or drummer, all I have to do is watch you and I am immediately humbled to the point of feeling like an amatuer!

All the best of luck to you in all your pursuits. It’s very inspirational to hear you play!!!
So much talent for 1 kid.

Hey Owen another awesome tribute to a legend lost. We always look forward to seeing your videos man rock on
