My husband was a HUGE fan of everything you have ever done. He would have loved this too. He died 3 months ago. Today is the first time I've been able to listen to your music since. It was something we always did together. This is really beautifully done. *Edit around 3 years later: I started out trying to respond to everyone's comments but quickly fell behind. I appreciate all of the love and positive energy sent to me from all over the world more than I can express with words. I am doing really well. My late husband and I had always planned on becoming foster parents, which I have now done on my own.

You and Leo need to collab on Bohemian Rhapsody as you do one of the best Freddie covers I have ever heard...or Godzilla by Eminem just because you can actually do it!!
OMG. This is the perfect storm of Violet's vocal talents and range and Leo's ability to metal up any song, combined with the base of a fantastic Roxette song... LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS
I certainly think that there are VERY few musicians who test out so many different styles of music, as Leo has done, and can pull it off with such amazing power.
Frog Leap always does an awesome job covering songs, but ever once in a while they go out and slaughter it and let it rise like a Phoenix. This one goes in my top 3 list that they’ve covered.
I just love how Leo's puppet is far more expressive than most "mainstream" or "popular" artists 😁 Violet and Leo are too freaking awesome and talented!
I will never get bored of Leo's talent thanks to my cousin Pete who he did the Adele cover with. His ability to play so many instruments is unbelievable
Omg I have been listening to Leo for years he’s amazing, I found violet a few months ago and she is one of my favs and I was thinking the other week imagine if Leo and violet did a song together never happen I’m sure then I got the notification for this and just wow. Thanks guys.
That violet orlandi song needs to be a thing . Cant get it out of my head . Been crooning on about video descriptions and patreon and randomly screaming violet orlandi
@@snakeplissken6649 I found Violet a few months back and ditto, just hours and hours of amazing. She's about a close to an Amy Lee clone as you can find.
I had a buddy that when we went to a music store would pick instruments up and play them. I would ask him what was that instrument he said I dont know... but he could still play it... I was always amazed by people like that and I think its a big reason I love Leo so much
@@prometheus7504 I have a son that has never made an instrument sound bad... even an accordion at 4 years old. He is now 22 and settled on bass... and learning Jaco P. songs... I struggle at rhythm guitar lol.
OMFG, everything I'd expect from two of my favorite musicians and more. Like, they're great on their own and yet even greater as a whole. Please Leo, could you do a colab with Lauren Babic?
This guy is so talented! All his covers are by himself playing all musical instruments besides a few featured guests. Blown away all the time by his skills
Wow the contrast of your voices is so good, it makes this a masterpiece. You both rock lml. By the way Leo I would love to hear your cover of "Skyfall" from Adele
Sometimes a classic touches a chord deep down in your soul - you know, one that you heard way back when that really meant something then. And then you hear what Leo does to it and a whole new awakening happens in your soul. Bro, I got chicken skin from this.
I was locked up for a bit and I'm catching up now. Every video gets better and better. This one just blows me away. Such talent. The creativity is on a level by itself. I cannot say enough about Leo. I don't think there is enough that could be said. Absolutely love listening to him. It's inspiring to me as a musician.
I Agree....What a incredible beautiful Woman...my heart just stop beating💔☮ (what song..I forgott to listen) Greetings from Sweden🤘 Marie Fredriksson R.I.P🌹
That was the most metal thing that I have seen in a decade. I saw Priest, Alice cooper and Motorhead multiple times but that was truly metal. I'm sure that Marie Fredickson would smile.
This is what happens when you take an already great song and have 2 people add just the right elements to it to make it even more epic.... His growl and her voice, are spot on, on this one.....
Leo posts a new song: Thats a bomb song. Leo featuring LITERALLY ANYONE: That shit is 100% fire omfg. Dudes gotta be one of the funnest guys ever to collab with. Both him and whoever he collabs with is at like 110%
This gives me such visceral feelings, I adore this cover so much. The vocals and visuals and the humour with the bloody heart. Leo's concerned look after the heart was "pulled out" gives me such life.
My wife loves all those 80s songs and i have just turned her on to your versions and she LOVES them. Well done turning my valley girl wife into a METAL HEAD
How have I not commented yet? I've listened to this hundreds of times. One of my very favorites. Excellent work from Leo, as always, and Violet is just incredible.
What an EPIC collab. My hands are still stained with blood. Thanks for having me on your channel! 🤘
You are blowing up everywhere! I'm happy for you and look forward to seeing you in concerts.

Awesome vocals.
Soooo good. Your voice is amazing as always!
Sooo are we gonna see Leo on your channel and what you gonna get him to do??
That was awesome! Please do it again! You guys rock individually, but you rock extra hard when you collaborate!

I love how Leo "forces" his supporting acts to show their real skills. Violet - damn - just explodes. They put this great song on a total new level.
I swear, Leo is one of the few metal TH-camrs who is ACTUALLY metal instead of just putting in an electric guitar and calling it a day.
absolutely. \m/ ^_^ \m/
Yuuup!!!!
Leo continues to prove and re-prove that every pop song sounds better with a sick breakdown in the middle.

Ok, now the 3 of you do a colab :P
You and Leo need to collab on Bohemian Rhapsody as you do one of the best Freddie covers I have ever heard...or Godzilla by Eminem just because you can actually do it!!
listen to your heart in 15 genres
If you haven't been, make a trip out to Norway and go see Leo. It's gorgeous there and the collab would rock!
The Violet Orlandi part in the end is an absolute masterpiece.
I love it!
could we please just get a full song out of that? it bangs
@@Timogrozni so much yes!
Dude, violet Orlandi IS a masterpiece like leo
Haunts my dreams/nightmare?
This is the type of energy we need in this world. Please keep being a bright light
Leo displays way more talent on an outro than most pop artists will ever put on a full album.
Truth!
need a violet orlandi outro extended edition now
How did his peace loving ass pay for the equipment. Untalented pop artists?
This song was played a lot in my childhood but this version is gonna be played a lot in my adulthood
Same here.
Totally. I found this tape when I was really young in my moms car and played it so much on my little GSX tape player. Always a good song.
One of the most played songs in minor school. ❤️
OMG. This is the perfect storm of Violet's vocal talents and range and Leo's ability to metal up any song, combined with the base of a fantastic Roxette song...
LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS
So happy to have found Leo. It’s been difficult for me to listen to the originals of these songs and now Leo’s versions are so cathartic. Thank you
His older work is much harder.
Woah.
Same
If we had to send one 'musician' from earth to represent all of humanity and all of music; Leo is the guy!!!!
you see and hear and feel it too
🤘🐸

Defiantly the best one of Leo's in a minute..
Same, right up there with Africa for me.
Should he even be allowed to cover songs that were take via robbery.
The look on his face when she tears her heart out.... priceless. I giggle every time!!!

I grew up on Roxette. This hits me right in the nostalgia. Absolutely amazing cover.
Hits harder when you think Marie isnt with us anymore 😕
@@sgreen6387 this song makes her immortal
😵🤯👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Dude your not alone😆
I was devastated when Marie passed as Roxette was so much in my childhood. This really captures their spirit.
Well this was the cover we needed! Violet and Leo’s voices work so well together!!
my heart always wants to listen to songs from this channel.
Leo is a great universal musician and metal girls around him makes complete package
A metal version of this song is just what the world needed.
th-cam.com/video/1sSxsP2Ci3Q/w-d-xo.html
Wow Leo and Violet togheter... it's EPIC !!!😍😍😍😍
I agree. So excited to see Violet work with Leo 😁😁🥰🥰
I agree, hope they do more together. I can see this being the next Frog leap Toto "Africa"
Leo and Violet? What????? Clicked right away
I believe this is what perfection sounds like.
I just love how Leo's puppet is far more expressive than most "mainstream" or "popular" artists 😁 Violet and Leo are too freaking awesome and talented!
R.I.P. Marie Fredriksson -- this was definitely a worthy cover of the song.
This needs to be a weekly thing.
Violet adds a much needed texture to Leo's music.
No. Leo is Leo. Don't ever say Leo needs someone. He literally plays all the music and vocal, she is just here because he showed mercy
The tag song SLAPS. I will randomly catch myself with "VIOLET ORLANDI" stuck in my head. I would LOVE a full length song of it!
Leo you honestly could be the most underappreciated musician in metal. Kudos my friend. Your skills and voice are a rare combination
I will never get bored of Leo's talent thanks to my cousin Pete who he did the Adele cover with. His ability to play so many instruments is unbelievable
When Violet harmonizes with the guitar, hitting high or low notes only when the guitar plays like that - it's such a pleasure to listen to.
Not sure why I find that little wiggle at 3:51 so adorable... excellent as always Leo. Thanks!
We all know why lol
Yes that little wiggle of the guitar is cool.
When she says " hepp" she had me! ❤️
I'm 100% in this club. Get's me every damn time.
I WAS JUST COMIN TO COMMENT SAME
Friday wouldn't be Friday without a newbie from Leo. Awesome as usual.

Music is timeless.

Leo has many masterpieces, but this one surpasses them all. What an epic cover. Great job by Violet Orlandi and Leo.
A year plus on, and I still feel like this is one of Leo's best collab works.
This is my tenth attempt to get you to cover “I Touch Myself” by The Divinyls
This was a great cover!
Try requesting that on Patreon.
I've been requesting Footloose by Kenny Loggins for years now... Still waiting 😂😂😂
You are not the only one hoping for this to happen, keep the faith
I have also requested it
If he could get Hannah back to do the vocal too, it'd be spot on. I guess that's not easy in the pandy times though.
That violet orlandi song needs to be a thing . Cant get it out of my head . Been crooning on about video descriptions and patreon and randomly screaming violet orlandi
Also have to say, Violet's voice totally does justice to Marie's originals.
I miss Marie.
If there ever was a remake that needed to be done, THIS IS IT!!!!!! You guys absolutely KILLED it!!!!
As a Hannah loyalist i gotta admit, this girl isn't only EXTREMELY easy on the eyes, she has an amazing voice. We NEED a Hannah/Violet collab!!
Oh yes! That would be awesome!
Great idea! Hannah can SING as well!
Violet is easily one of the best singers of today. Id recommend her channel to anyone.
I am a Hannah loyalist too, but I personally don't think this cover would've been as amazing as it is with her
This is the first time i've ever heard Violet sing. You have yourself a new fan. Leo, great as always.
You should check out her cover of down with the sickness
@@jezs9937 I spent the next hour following the white rabbit & subbed to her channel.

For me, the vibe and tone is Violet's sweet spot. Such a great performance.
God: "Leo, what instrument would you like to play?"
Leo: "Yes."
I had a buddy that when we went to a music store would pick instruments up and play them. I would ask him what was that instrument he said I dont know... but he could still play it... I was always amazed by people like that and I think its a big reason I love Leo so much

I love everything Leo does. But this has to be one of his best. It’s like beauty and the beast. What talent both of them have..
That face when she tears out her heart was perfect.
Would love to hear you two Collab for "cry little sister" Leo's style, Violets voice. Epic
Oh fuck yeah, as soon as I read it, you are 1000% spot on!!!
Ooooo yeah that would be amazing
YEEEESSSSS!!!
Also I would do anything for love would be a good one with her voice

Yeah, I got respect for Babic after her and Nick Nocturnal made Billie Eilish's "Bury A Friend" listenable.
Yes, a cover with Lauren Babic would be EPIC!!!

That one was cool. Have you considered "Hazy Shade of Winter"?
Violet's voice and the Leo's touch!👍👍
🤘
Wow the contrast of your voices is so good, it makes this a masterpiece.
You both rock lml.
By the way Leo I would love to hear your cover of "Skyfall" from Adele
Im sure Marie smiles from up above saying "that shit is good!".
Sometimes a classic touches a chord deep down in your soul - you know, one that you heard way back when that really meant something then. And then you hear what Leo does to it and a whole new awakening happens in your soul. Bro, I got chicken skin from this.
Roxette is always a banger . RIP Marie Fredriksson
I didn't know she had passed away. Roxette is always a favorite.
Everyone is forgetting how good the piano player is. Definitely needs more screen time.
Totally... Pretty amazing with those hands too
My goodness. Leo and Violet together. Amazing. This might be up there with "Africa" and "Dance Monkey" for Leo's best covers.
This collaboration was worth the wait, absolutely magnificent.

I hope Leo plays it live.

Hey Leo, this is one of the best covers you have ever done. Amazing
I’ve been binging over the last few days and I’m sold on the humor, talent, and originality!

the best version of the song I have ever heard... in fact everything that this guy does is awesome.
The best thing about the frog leap videos is the fact that they are always 2 awesome songs per click.
Fucking hell, the best Roxette cover I have ever seen. By a mile.
He also covers She's Got The Look. Its awesome.
Your absolut right!!!
This is an pretty epic cover, no doubt about that. But, I dig Through Fire's version too.

Keep on with the 80’s power ballads!!!! I love it!!!!
the "outro" is outstanding !! love it !
The beginning where Violet pulls out her heart and Leo looks around like “WTF?!?!?!”. That killed me.
Just having that in the thumbnail was enough for me. 😁
I'm sure it killed her more than you...
That was dope haha.
"I knew she was Goth but damn..."
