Hello! Great job ... it's an excellent version ... I love this song !!!
You can make a song of Mägo de oz - Gaia.Thanks !!! Hugs!!!
Vicio letal- Avalanch
"FIND YOUR OWN VOICE" from stratovarius
You should cover the song "This Is Me" from the new movie The Greatest Showman.
That was the most amazing version I've ever heard. This song was a childhood favourite and I collect different versions, including trance. This is the only metal cover I've ever heard of it, and it's like the one I've been waiting for my whole life! Thank you, PelleK.
You should hear Leo's one :P
Young Grzywa post a llnk :)
Young Grzywa agree

It is all about his neck.
Gracias Jim Carrey
Bruno K' um hes edinson cavani
Bruno K' eso fue lo qué pense cuando vi el thumbnail 😂.
Jam Carrey
Jajajajajaja te guaseaste... jajajaja
He is Nordic Dross.
Thank you. Seriously, this is actually perfect.
When I searched for "Toto Africa Metal" I was expecting to find an ironic version for meme purposes.... Actually found greatness which could stand on its own.
Amazing recreation, amazing voice, and of course absolutely nailed those harmonies for the chorus.
This is literally one of the best things I've heard.
How about The Final Countdown by Europe?
He didn’t do it because he knew it would end up becoming an exact copy
After Forever sings
He has done it before
Power metal is basically speed up glam metal, you just need a slow mo button.
@@firdauszainudin7118 stupidest comment ever...
The world is a better place with you in it, best morning this week hands down having listened to this cover.
I can do my homework now
Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeah. That hit the spot.Those high notes!!! Mf goosebumps son!
I am just flabbergasted. I have never heard singing anything like this. Incredible talent.
Lyrics:
I hear the drums echoing tonight
But she hears only whispers of some quiet conversation
She's coming in, 12:30 flight
The moonlit wings reflect the stars that guide me towards salvation
I stopped an old man along the way
Hoping to find some long forgotten words or ancient melodies
He turned to me as if to say, "Hurry boy, it's waiting there for you"
It's gonna take a lot to take me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
The wild dogs cry out in the night
As they grow restless, longing for some solitary company
I know that I must do what's right
As sure as Kilimanjaro rises like Olympus above the Serengeti
I seek to cure what's deep inside, frightened of this thing that I've become
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
Hurry boy, she's waiting there for you
It's gonna take a lot to drag me away from you
There's nothing that a hundred men or more could ever do
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
(I bless the rain)
I bless the rains down in Africa
(I bless the rain)
I bless the rains down in Africa
I bless the rains down in Africa
(Ah, gonna take the time)
Gonna take some time to do the things we never had
Im so happy every time you cover great rock's song like this one!!
amazing... fantastic... Thanks so much
Thank you for your cover to this masterpeice. I love you Pellek.
I love how the drummer's blasting during the verses, but for the chorus he's sticking to 2 & 4.
One of the most badass covers I've ever heard, great job man!!!
This sincerely may be your greatest cover ever, and you have a lot of amazing covers. I love this!
I'd love to hear the full version of Dragon Ball Super's first OP next! The song is so good and the full version is even LEAGUES more hype!
FINALLY!!! I’ve wanted a lyrical metal Africa since Erock did his guitar version years ago!
Look up affiances cover
Great cover. I've heard other metal covers of this tune but they dont do it justice. Power Metal fits so much better with these kinds of melodic vocal numbers. Excellent job.
YES THIS MY SONG. I'M FUCKING TOTO AND THIS IS MY JAM. I LOVE YOU FOR THIS. WOOOOOOOOOOO
Aaarg I can't stop replaying this. It's too good
Also 1:13 oh man
You are fucking Toto? Nice! Just be sure to be a gentleman and be emotionally available for....toto
M So yes
I stumbled on your channel while just going through different covers of this song. I was unsure what to expect, as I had not heard you before. Your opening vocals blew me away, so much so, I had to stop and leave a comment. Once I finish my tour of Africa covers, I will return to see the rest of your channel. Awesome work!
*My brain throughout the entire song:* "YES YES YES YES YE-"
is that a jojo reference?
The vocals as the chorus ends are brilliant. Fantastic metal cover!!
Do zombie by the cranberries
Hayden Smith noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.
Bad wolves already did it
typed in Africa Power Metal cover and found you of course! Your covers are THE BEST! Elastic Heart might be my favorite!
Let's gooooo
👉😁👈
@@thebronjame624
LOL
That would be metalcore, power metal would start with wooooooaaaaahhhhhh (squeeze you ball while singing for best result)
Been searching for power metal covers and this one is closer to what I was searching for voice-wise. It just feels different to normal metal cover singing. I don't think every high pitch fits but most are greatly placed.
By the gods
Those screams are perfect
I love you, Pellek, I love you so much!!! Thank you for everything!! You lighted out my childhood and now you are a big inspiration to me♥
Please do Heaven is a Place on Earth, it would be awesome!
PochocloEn3D yes yes, love to see it ❤️🤘
Elevenking do a good cover of that if you guys are interested.
hells yeah they did! SO good!
Already have cover by Elevenking
Salut Francais
My son and I listen to this guy all the time! Great version of this song!
I’ve always wanted to hear a good metal rendition of Dolly Partons “Jolene” the guitar is actually really sick and melodic in that song and I think it could translate into a killer metal/stadium rock/hair metal song. PLEASE DO IT??
I'm drunk and my friend sent this to me, and I love your voice my dude. I love the energy you have. It's amazing!
Tío, que grande eres, tienes una coz increíble , eres BRUTAL!❤
Saludos desde Galicia (Spain)❤
I am stunned by your incredible voice! This is one of my favorite songs and I didn't think that anyone could do it justice until I heard this. I was instantly reminded of Rob Halford. Best of luck, I believe your future will be very bright.
Excuse me, but you and Fog leap studios aka Leo Moracchioli need to do a video together.
JohnBlund94 frog
M So yeah I meant that
I know and naw I don't really care. one guy have already metioned it.
Absolutely man
this guy's too good for that
One of the best covers I've heard of any song
Amazing
Wow....what a voice....amazing vocal...this was outstanding....
This made my Yeeto meter hit the roof. The Yeet has been Yote which has been Yoten which has been Yooted. THE YOOTERS ARE COMING!!!
I only just discovered Pelle tonight and I am now a subscriber. Amazing work!
damn dude, I'm instantly subscribing lol
Great job by everyone, from Toto to Thundergod Studios and everyone in-between. PelleK really brought the song up a whole step, but I gotta say, the drums by Gisha was really, really amazing and took the cake. Three thumbs up, if I had three hands.
Someone needs to make a 10 hour version of this I have literally broken my fingers for the sake of eargasm
It's on Spotify now!
@@emerald8965 just loop the video
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!!!
Pellek Genio!!! Haz "Crimen" de Gustavo Cerati.
x 2
Stevan Lemeccis x3
buenísima idea
Stevan Lemeccis *basura no :v*
Me meo de la emoción si canta "Crimen" 💕
I remember when this song came out. I was never a huge fan of the original, but this amped up version is REALLY good!!!
His neck is so scary!
he needs to eat more. for a power metal singer his lows are weak. nice screams tho
How does someone have a scary neck?
It’s just a neck man
Ryuji Sakamoto i think that's because of the bones lmao
2 spooky 4 you
Wow i got chills when you sang this song it was amazing. You are amazing and I love your voice
Now please "Hold The Line"😍
I requested this sooooo many times!!! Thanks Pellek!!!
I would love to hear your version of In Joy and Sorrow by HIM, Remember When It Rained by Josh Groban
Music of the Night from Phantom of the Opera, or Bring Him Home from Les Mis.
PelleK covering Josh Groban would be completely badass!
Ravus Nox Fleuret My sentiments exactly! I am glad you feel the same!
+Ravus Nox Fleuret YESSSS
that's so funny and perfect timing, I've been listening to this song for the past few days. I love the original version and pellek's
PLS do "EL PODER NUESTRO ES" from DBZ.
SmashSSL ya lo hizo
No .-.
:'D
Your voice is so nice! I love your cover of this song, I've listened to it on repeat for days now.
Hey,how do you know that I love this song!!!!!
This might be my favorite of all your videos. So well done!
You were born at the wrong time. You would have made a fortune in the 80s-90s.
Right he sounds like a lead singer from an 80's band
I double agree with you mate !
He was born in 81
He has over 600million views. I think he already made that fortune.
@@Seductus99 Over 10 years it's not that much.
I'm a french fan of Toto and you, honestly your cover it's awesome ! Thanks you for this magic moment ! I hope you make the cover of Toto more.
Good luck in TH-cam ! ;)
Holy shit, this is pure gold ❤️
Your best harmony chorus yet! Keep rocking man!

I blessed the rain down in africa!!!
I thought that was Jim Carrey because of the Thumbnail 😂

Marta7997 YT definitely. Yes the next best after they kicked Christian out. Pfft still annoyed about it :/
Dude, holy smokes! Those pipes are legendary!!
Underpressure ? BowieXQueen
The control you had with your voice before the chorus is amazing 😱😁
That was everything I could have ever wanted. I would love to hear a metal ballad of Styx's "Come Sail Away" or "Let it be" by the Beatles.
Such a great song by Toto. Great cover.
Toto - hold The line
Next please ❤
前これライヴで歌ったのですっげぇテンション上がりました！！
やっぱ歌うまいですね！
Nunca había cerrado el nopor tan rápido :v
Whenever I felt like giving up on school, I come here to see Pellek´s videos, and I thought: "I gotta become rich and sucessful, then someday he would be my trophy husband" thats all takes to get me back on track. Someday.... someday
Can you Do "kill la kill" opening 1 please, por favor ,お願いします
That song is so upbeat that it can be heard as a power metal cover. Well done!
GOOD SONG ;)👌
Long live to Metal! I love your voice, best regards from Colombia!
Dirty Diana - Michael Jackson
pls :')
@pellekofficial yes please!!🙏🏻🧡🧡🧡
That'll be a real hit on a metal version.
I like this version. The vocals are straight up boom from the beginning
el paso del gigante versión metal
