    Nice to hear someone singing without using autotune. Individuals with real talent. Good thing this school exists.

      True that... And Edie Brickell does a little thing on purpose of singing "Just a but" flat much like the lead singer from Candlebox.... It's a signature that most can't follow because the chords tell your ears where your notes should be. Singing flat or sharp on purpose is extremely difficult to do. This young lady killed it, but Edie has a definitive tone... nicely done though :)

    I let my 28 year old son listen to this and the original, about 2/3'ds of the way through, he looked at me and said, "That girl on bass is killing it!" He is a musician (guitar, bass, keys, and backing and lead vocals) who has toured much of the east coast with a former legit rock star. He likes to point stuff out most would miss, and it doesn't matter how big your name is, if he thinks it's bad he'll tell you. That he was impressed told me so much. While he liked the whole song, that was the only comment he made on the individuals. Kudos to the bass player!

    So I've been binge watching these for a couple hours now and, though I really liked most of what I've seen and heard, this is the one that gets me. In every performance we can see they are in different places, some really living the music, some focusing so hard in not making mistakes, some come out as naturals, some really show they're overcoming a lot. They are all great and I can really see the hard work they're putting in, as rough talent is not enough for anyone to deliver what these youngsters are showing us. But this one… from the three lads doing percussion in the back, the amazing fingering on the bass, the steady rythm of the drums, three clearly distinctive guitars playing, keyboard on point, and, of course, the voice… - what a fantastic voice! - everything in this is perfect! They've all reached a point that it seems effortless! And every musician knows the amount of effort needed to make things seem effortless. This song is alive through them!

      Yeah these have been out for several years but I only stumbled on to them just now. I lived in the time of this great music from the 60s to the 80s and most covers are not that good but these kids are great and their versions are so similar to the originals. I've been binge watching about two hours now!

    This cover is absolutely eleven out of ten. Not only that it sounds absolutely perfect, the face expression and performance of the vocalist makes me forget that these are students. Aden NEEDS to be on stage with that outstandig style. If there would be only one cover of Edie Brickell's song allowed, it has to be this one. The entire group nailed it and as Edie would say "oh, don't make me choose" between the original and the cover 🥰

      Girl can sing yeah, however she sounds like Edie. Personally when I listen to a cover song I wanna hear a different song than I had before. Good lyrics that speak to people are universal but how it's presented is what makes an artist. Annie Lenox n Marilyn Manson Sweet Dreams same lyrics the hold the same meaning two entirely different songs. Chet Faker n Black Street No Diggity same deal. So yup this girl can sing just needs to find out who she is cause there is already an Edie Brikniel (bad spelling I know)

    I am always so impressed by the young people performing as they grow through School Of Rock. This song seems so complicated with the different time variations and such. The youngsters in this video ALL performed so well that I can't help but just smile all the way through. Props to the people behind the scenes as well; engineer, producer, the camera folks that always film the artists so tastefully. Well done!!

    The 11th time, I focused on the keyboard, Steven, driving a roland with perfection, tranquility and also fully integrated, maintaining the "protective wall" of the musical background, which together with the bassist and the drummer keeps the "thing" warm and everyone starts to integrate as if a single person was there making all the sounds ... fantastic .. I think I said a little, but, I'm here waiting for the next show .... Luiz

    Putz, spectacular, I saw the vídeo 10 times, repeatedly, just to hear and see the show that you young people managed to show, not only the music , that is spectacularly good, but the facial expression of each one of you in the course of the music, the guitarist together with bassist Stella, at times she seems to be amazed by the perfect sound organization of the ensemble, while on the other side of the room we have the boy with white guitary who seems to be in ecstasy when the soloist at his side does the solo with uaua in the middle of the song . oh, and the singer Aden, it seems that she is floating in space with a complete integration, a facial expression and movement of the arms that shows to be totally integrated, soul and body with the music, commanding the show. well, the drummer is fantastic and the song chosen perfect for everyone in the group ... I was impressed over my 70s ... I was a bass player when I was 20 ... congratulations boys and girls ..
