Thank you all! We could never have done this without our friends in this video and all of our shared communities. We love you. We'll see you in 2021. (See description for links to Cole, Audra (F211), Violet and Lauren's channels! Come back first thing 2021 for a brand new Halocene original! "VITA NOVA"
WOW...Ladies I have always enjoyed watching you videos...But this takes the Cake.... VERY well done Keep rocking it!!!! #Don'tStop #betterthantheOrginal
anthony you are an inspiration to everyone who's attempted singing in any way. also please do more with other artists. your collab with violet was beyond on point.
Beautifully buried in the vocal harmony at around 4:50 @Lauren Babic screams "Don't stop believin'!" with enough beauty, power and verve to get me moving again, and with my disease, that's been no small feat lately. I have no idea who will see this but I have to thank you all.
One can tell y'all are having a blast, that you're enjoying spreading the joy! Your hearts are in it, and you guys are "Following Your Bliss". I've felt that vibe from all of you taking part in the making of this MASTERPIECE... Both in the collaboration projects/configurations, and in your individual work. The just.... authenticity of your work speaks to a Good, Genuine Spirit. Good Intentions. Good Will. Good Hearts. Buttloads of Talent... And Humility, to boot. THANK YOU! What an EPIC end to 2020!
While we are watching these videos when you all come together to sing and play a classic rock song, at least one thing, everybody must realize, learn and understand: the girl (voice) POWER!!!
This is the greatest thing to come out this year. You really captured the essence of friendship and pure joy of what you do with each other. This video is a testament of selfless people being a beacon of light and happiness for others around them. Don’t stop believin in yourselves and don’t stop believin in each other. This the longest comment I ever made but dammit you got me emotional. Proud of you all. Love you all.
I... couldn't have said it better myself, I agree with every word in this comment, and I would've said something else to the COLLAB CREW, if there was anything else to add except this: (Summarizing a library-full-of-ancient-books-level-of-worth into a few words, in a brief comment, can be a real challenge sometimes... But... since I, well... can't really post a painting, and it'd take me a while to write poetry about how I feel about a) this VIDEO and the CREW(s) behind it, even most of their other uploads, collabs and individual stuff, out of which I've watched anywhere around probably 90% of, over the past year or so... well) Hm. Yeah. "Compress a Library into a pocket book, then recite the pocket book in a Twitter post... that is limited to what, 160 characters?" or... "Describe why 'Mona Lisa' is considered a classic piece of art to a deaf-mute and also BLIND person, simply by touch..." Any of those two, seems almost easier to accomplish, than expressing how I feel about these ladies and gents behind Halocene, Violet, Lauren, and well... F211 as well... hehe... thought I'd forgot about you and Cole? nah... just joshin'... I mean... There are artists.... and performers... Then there's this crew.... ...they spawned individually, somehow were meant to connect -> collab -> form bonds -> make magic together -> blow some sense into people's minds with the excellent musical choices/selections, and thump joy into their hearts with their combination of unique talent and skills.... I could go on and on... But yeah.. Startin' to feel like I'm layin' it on a weeee bit thick at this point. Y'all are awesome. Keep it up. And... How to top one of (if not THE) - Best Song of the Past Few Generations? Won't be easy, but if ANY CREW / COLLAB GROUP of Artists and Performance Wizards can pull the Next White Rabbit outta Their Top Hat, it's these folks! Oh. Did I neglect to express, I think this was: "Well Done"? =P
4:35 - 4:43 to go from that soaring vocal climb to an utterly primal scream just gives me chills every time. I’m humbled to just be able to enjoy such majestic artistry!
Dear Brad, The twinkle effect on Cole Rolland's teeth at 1:57 was priceless. I don't see too many comments commending you on the outstanding job that you did as well.
I bet a lot of people are feeling nostalgic when listening to this song. Not me, I was too young and more into Classical at the time, but WOW! What you guys did with this piece is amazing! The harmonies are awesome and you sing it with such passion! I listened to it over and over. It makes me want to sing and dance too. This must be what die hard Journey fans feel like when they hear the song. Amazing work, and may you all enjoy many more years of success. I have a large number of songs by all of you on my playlists. I started out with Violet and found the rest of you through your collaborations, so keep them coming!❤🎉
The whole song was this incredible build-up of emotion, even though it's a song I've heard and belted out my entire life. Your various vocal styles interleave into the last 10 seconds, and from 4:46 to 4:56 is just harmonic perfection. I can distinctly hear all four women in their own styles and emotion. Out came the tears of joy, as happens when it's the first time you hear something that you know you'll want to play over and over again for years to come.
When I heard the individual vocals, my first thought was: "how will those ever mix well together". To my sincere surprise .. boy was I wrong! (and I love it). Not a single bad word from me, about any of the vocalists. They each have a unique voice and sound great (and so did the other artists) .. but that voice of Lauren Babic .. DAMN!!! That lady has a voice! In over 4 decades, I've witness my share of great vocals, but not that many like her's. All in all: what a wonderful collaboration .. and I am very grateful for it popping up on my today's watch list.
Steve Perry betta B watchin his cause U Ladies are the real thing.And the band shreds . Y'all just keep on keepin on you will get there just remember patience and perseverance just keep it up 100% all the time. Bless you guys in your health and your dreams and in your faith peace out.
I actually have no words. There's only so many times I could say ooh cool amazing awesome without the words becoming repetitive and almost losing their significance, but really this is such an uplifting, beautiful end to such a horrendous year. The editing, the song mixing and mastering, I just have no words. Just thank you for creating this masterpiece
Not gonna lie, that outro brought me to tears. Throughout this entire shitty year, every week, you guys have been something fun, exciting, and positive to look forward to, and that has helped me get through. You guys truely embody the song and the sentiment that together we can get through difficult times and to never stop believeing that brighter days will come. As for the music it’s self, this was incredible!!! Every single person hit a Homerun with this one! I am in awe of your ability to out-do yourselves every time. Every time I think it can’t get any better, you guys absolutley shatter expectations! Bravo! Also Brad, I see and appreciate you! Thank you for everything that you do for Halocene and for us! Here’s to bigger and better things in 2021! Much Love to all of you!
You listen to music, TH-cam propose a new band, a new artist and you listen, again, and again! For me it started with a signer call Malinda that sang with Violet, and then I discovered Halocene, and First to Eleven, and Lauren and now I tumble on all the 4 of you singing together like heaven!!! I got chills from the start to the last note!!! Love you all!!! 😀
This is probably one of my most favorite things I've heard all year, absolutely worth staying up this late to catch this glimpse of!! The combination of all of the talent in this video is mind blowing. From the amazing vocals of Addie, Violet, Audra and Lauren (and her amazing screams too!) to the musicianship combo of Brad, Joe and Cole. This will be a favorite of mine for a long time to come!! Amazing collab everyone involved! The video editing matches the quality of this performance!! Love the sentiment at the end as well!!
I cried. I'm at work and this came on my playlist, and I SOBBED. I have always listened to this song when I'm feeling down, but you all took it to another REALM. Thank you for this song. Now to put it on repeat...
When Addie mentions she sang that song hundreds of times at weddings, i remember an instagram post not long before lockdowns hit where they were playing it with a bunch of very happy people. We'll get back to that very soon!
We actually quit our corporate cover band since the pandemic started. Not that it wasn't fun, but Halocene took off so much that we decided to focus completely on that. Which makes this all the more emotional!
Relistening at the end of 2024 and boy does this have so many layers. Shout out to the singing and performing, it is great across the board. Can I just give a special salute to anyone and everyone who was involved in the arrangement of this. It's such a crisp cover and organising all the different styles and sounds to create this behemoth took a lot of skill. Bravo everyone. Thank you for the music.
All of you in this video were one of my greatest gifts of the most difficult year of all! This PERFECT edition is another gift for those who follow you all. Thank you for that and may we continue to believe in 2021 !! Let's Rock 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Brad produced it, recorded it, mixed it, mastered it, and edited the video. However, he did not perform Cole's parts, they were literally impossible for his fingers to keep up in some spots... That very last shred session... 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Cole's solos are sorcery
It's funny to think that Brad can produce, record, mix and edit, but when Addie take a little break from the stream, he had a few problems to understand how the stream works hahaha.
more like, when the teacher puts the class nerds in the room, while the "smart kids" are laughing at them... 15 years later, we got THIS. and the "smart kids" are crying... :D I love this harmony of your voices, its so fucking perfect!
You guys were amazing!! But it is so true that we forget to mention The others members of thy band the guitarists the drummer they were AWSOme specially the guitarist Cole !!!!
"Just a small town girl..." "Just a city boy...." Well those boys and girls are definitely doing something really great. Big props to the HCU to make such a big impact for a lot of people, Rock on! 🤘
Followed Cole because I went to school with him, he lead me to Lauren, she lead me to Halocene, and them to the others. My favorite artists to listen to anytime, anywhere. Keep up everything you all do, it's amazing. Thank you for the early Christmas present I didn't know I needed! CONGRATZ ON 500K!!!!
This is an epic artistic achievement! Congratulations on the beautiful work done. The song is an all-time classic which any artist should be proud of being able to perform well, with lyrics so well fitting for your effort. Looking forward to where you all go from here. Keep on rocking!
I thought this was gonna be another karaoke collab but the guitars, distinct harmonies, Babic's metal scream around 3 minutes, and the sheer musicality really came through to me on this one. Well done.
This is now my favorite cover of anything anytime. Four incredible voices blended to perfection with a ton of talent backing them up. Simply a staggering performance. Congrats Halocene!
@@Halocene You wanted to perform something that inspired people and gave them hope. It did both for me. It's been a rough year. This helped me through.
This is the sound that created the universe we know today. You all have earned a life long fan and admirer. Words can’t form sentences to describe this.
As a musician I’m clearly watching this from a different view. I’m absolutely blown away and couldn’t think of one thing to improve. You guys all did a spectacular job and the creativity is off the charts. I’m honored to be able to have listened to this piece. Keep doin you and being amazing . Thankyou for sharing your work !!!
Literal chills throughout this whole song. My god and the segment from 4:07 to 4:23 shook me to my core it was so good! Just hearing their voices by themselves was incredible. Of course the other musicians did amazing to but that one part plays on repeat in my head.
I've seen so much over-production in the world of art as a whole: I've seen photographs processed to an extent where the soul of the image was lost forever. I've seen videos where the post-production was taken so far that only the veneer of the original concept remains. I've heard covers and collaborations that distance themselves so far from the essence of the song being covered, that one is left to just shake their head. THIS...THIS was the most moving, compelling, soul-filling, piece of ***ART*** that i've seen in over 20 years of critiquing, creating, and consulting. There was never a moment where the original song's essence was lost. Rather, in its stead, a new generation's sincerest tip of the cap, a showcase of exceptional skill from every member who participated. If in 100 years the Rock and Roll museum doesn't showcase Journey's most famous song, with your rendition alongside it, it would be a tragedy. I cannot adequately convey what I'm feeling at this moment. I cannot recall a moment in my life where I've been moved by music in this way.
Agree totally with you... i am impressed... More and more brilliant young musicians with unlimited skills are invading our planet. In Canada, with bands as interesting as Motion Device, Sina in Germany with incredible (and in continuous growing) young talented friends, Andrei Cerbu's ecosystem of projects in Romania with extraordinary female singers (latest, Romina Apostol is... no words...) Awesome guitarists as Mark Ostro, Jasmine Star, Tina S, Baby Saster, MelSick, Ayla Tesler... Genius as Rob Scallon... and more, and more...
No small task covering possibly the 80s-est 80 songs! Took some chances with the arrangement! What you produced is nothing short of breathtaking! You should all be very proud!
One of the best studio bands I've ever heard. So well rounded and still has that magic touch that technique alone can't quantify. Not to mention the vox. But that's obvious to most. Respect to the boys. 🤜 🤛
Jesus lord almighty, I've watched/listened to this song. I still am suprised at the amazing amount of talent in this video. From editing, harmonies, and just pure unadluterated talent. Y'all are all so inspiring and truly awesome people. Congrats on 12 years( a little late)!!
3 years later and this still rendition still reduces me to a weeping puddle of sing-a-long tears. Don’t Stop Believing is already a monumental piece of music but you’ve all managed to make it ten times bigger. Bypasses the ears and goes straight to the heart. Bravo!
I know you did not mean it in a bad way or anything. She in fact is also wearing make-up. This is fine since she and everyone else in this video should just record the video how they feel most comfortable. They all have great voices and they all rocked that cover.
4:18 made me cry and gave me goosebumps. best part about the song. Love every min of it. Awesome job. Still doesn't top your Bohemian Rhapsody cover but this is a close 2nd.
You make me cry. What a amazing cover and history, you guys deserv everything you won till now and so much more! Thank you guys for makes us don't stop believin!
Adding instruments was pleasantly unexpected. What a beautiful performance! Thank you for brightening my very busy day and bringing a smile to my facel
Just a small town girl Livin' in a lonely world She took the midnight train goin' anywhere Just a city boy Born and raised in South Detroit He took the midnight train goin' anywhere A singer in a smokey room The smell of wine and cheap perfume For a smile they can share the night It goes on and on, and on, and on Strangers, waitin' Up and down the boulevard Their shadows Searchin' in the night Streetlights, people Livin' just to find emotion Hidin' somewhere in the night Workin' hard to get my fill Everybody wants a thrill Payin' anything to roll the dice Just one more time Some will win Some will lose Some were born to sing the blues Oh, the movie never ends It goes on and on, and on, and on Strangers waitin' Up and down the boulevard Their shadows Searchin' in the night Streetlights, people Livin' just to find emotion Hidin' somewhere in the night Don't stop believin' Hold on to that feelin' Streetlight, people Don't stop, believin' Hold on Streetlights, people Don't stop believin' Hold on to that feelin' Streetlight, people
This song has special meaning for me. My daughter was born today when the time was called for her birth this song was playing. This is my favorite version.
@@Halocene hi there girls @Lauren Babic @Violet Orlandi and others can you please do me a request for the song These Are The Days of Our Lives by Queen ?? Thank you very much for all your talented work you are amazing ❤️🎤🎸❤️
I had tickets to the show in Seattle this year but ended up hospitalized on the day of. So sad I missed you all. I wanted to meet you and let you know how much you changed my life in a positive way. Maybe I'll be at the next show. Don't stop believing!
When I tell you I CRIED actual tears listening to this cover. I’m never listening to the original the same ever again. I love all the people involved in making this
I"m at a total loss for words - this has all been so amazing - it started when I found Stairway to Heaven - now I've spent the past three hours (while I'm supposed to be sleeping) listening to you all - thank you so much for bringing this all back - Like, really - thank you. I would cheerfully pay to see any of you (or all) perform live - this was so exciting (every time!)
It makes me so happy to see you all having the success you deserve, here's to all that's coming up in the future! (rly excited for that new song btw :D)

I'm definitely crying. Y'all killed this shit. You always do
Amazing job Lauren! Crushed it... like I plan on doing in marbles next stream!
you've all come a long way. Congrats! Sounded amazing. ❤️
You were one of the first other youtubers to support us, thank you for believing in us!
@@Halocene ele é muito bom!
anthony you are an inspiration to everyone who's attempted singing in any way. also please do more with other artists. your collab with violet was beyond on point.
@@Halocene It Would Be Awesome If Was A Combination/Mashup Like Journey. - Don't Stop Believin'. - Ft Pellek And Johnathan Young Ft. Caleb Hyles.

DON’T STOP BELIEVIN’ YEAAAAHHHH!!!!
"ft ... Lauren Babic"
Me: waiting for the scream
Unleash the Babic!
She is the best
Yepp XD
Well it would be rude not to utilise the power while it's there
It's always the best when she does a collab, just jamming out to whatever the song is and then Lauren does the Lauren thing.
4:37 oh there it is
Best band on TH-cam
Much love to the other you tubers in here but, Nah I prefer you 🖤
Mortícia do Brasil 🇧🇷
There a new Beatles in town and it's you girls 💥✌
Best band = halocene + you + fte + lauren. Theres nothin on TH-cam that can beat that
@@Rafa.panda- como assim? Ela é BR?
Violet and Lauren should be permanent members of this band. This should be a thing. They are amazing together.
F0king A right!
Violet yes always but babic hell no
@@nokiaalive what is your problem with Lauren?
Strongly agree!
You said it!
This was SO much fun. thank you for having me, so happy to be able to work with each & every one of you🥺🖤
You were great on there :)

CONGRATS ON 500K!! 🎉🥂
Great collab video! You're an great musician. Subbed your channel too. Have a MERRY CHRISTMAS
Greatness
It’s the “one more time.. ONE MORE TIME!!” that gets me everytime!
How many badass vocalists do you want?
-YES.
hell YEAH
LOL.
Epic comment.
=)
This comment has been fact checked.
Let’s not under estimate the drummer. One of the best I’ve ever heard on TH-cam .
the drummer is a phenomenal musician and that set is tuned and eq'd to perfection.
I love da guy.... but he does reminds me of da brother from that movie..."50 first dates"..... >= )
He beats those drums like they owe him money
bruh what about Brad? he spent 1600 years editing this
Joe Polizzi is a fantastic drummer and seems to have a great personality as well. I absolutely adore this man.
This is the greatest thing to come out this year. You really captured the essence of friendship and pure joy of what you do with each other.

Thank you for that and may we continue to believe in 2021 !!
Let's Rock 🤘🏼🤘🏼
Song choice A+
Arrangement A+
Execution A+
And to whoever edits these clips, you get 2 A+'s
Brad produced it, recorded it, mixed it, mastered it, and edited the video. However, he did not perform Cole's parts, they were literally impossible for his fingers to keep up in some spots... That very last shred session... 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Cole's solos are sorcery
@@Halocene How about we term that "Cole-slaughter" since that's about what he does.
I agree 200% execution was perfect. The person responsible (or people) did a fantastic job with the editing. The song was performed Fantastic!!!
It's funny to think that Brad can produce, record, mix and edit, but when Addie take a little break from the stream, he had a few problems to understand how the stream works hahaha.
@@Halocene Brad is a very talented dude! I know well how difficult mixing and mastering can be, so he gets a high distinction from me :3
i'm 62, and this is...
damn,
i wish i could spell phenomenal.
When the teacher puts all the smart kids in the room.
😍😁🙈🤷😍💌🔊🎧🤷🌍🗝️🤯🥰😂👑👑👑🤔🥳🗝️🥰 The message is loud and clear. The teacher is always silent while you take the test.
Agree with that one
@@whitewitchqueen Thanks! 🙏
more like, when the teacher puts the class nerds in the room, while the "smart kids" are laughing at them... 15 years later, we got THIS. and the "smart kids" are crying... :D I love this harmony of your voices, its so fucking perfect!
I think none in the room are studying quantum physics.
When you get a Christmas gift you only just realized you’ve always needed
I mean all these young ladies have voices of angels. And let's not forget the musicians involved to. Absolute masterpiece
I KNEW that at some point Lauren would just turn full Babic so YESSSSS (YESSSSS anyways to be honest)
Full Babic
Perfect
You never go full Babic... yknow what, nevermind, do eet!
Yea I was just waiting for a time for her to get it with that Wicked Scream she Has 🤘🏼🤘🏼
I was wondering if she'd get the opportunity in this song and then she hit us with it and it was pure awesomeness. What a way to wrap up the year!!!
Unleash the Babic!
You guys were amazing!! But it is so true that we forget to mention The others members of thy band the guitarists the drummer they were AWSOme specially the guitarist Cole !!!!
"Just a small town girl..."
"Just a city boy...."
Well those boys and girls are definitely doing something really great. Big props to the HCU to make such a big impact for a lot of people, Rock on! 🤘
Followed Cole because I went to school with him, he lead me to Lauren, she lead me to Halocene, and them to the others. My favorite artists to listen to anytime, anywhere. Keep up everything you all do, it's amazing. Thank you for the early Christmas present I didn't know I needed! CONGRATZ ON 500K!!!!
OUTSTANDING JOB with this Journey song. Love the vocal collaboration between them all.
This is an epic artistic achievement! Congratulations on the beautiful work done. The song is an all-time classic which any artist should be proud of being able to perform well, with lyrics so well fitting for your effort. Looking forward to where you all go from here. Keep on rocking!
I thought this was gonna be another karaoke collab but the guitars, distinct harmonies, Babic's metal scream around 3 minutes, and the sheer musicality really came through to me on this one. Well done.
Thanks for the kind words. Hope you find more to enjoy in the channels of those in this video.
This is now my favorite cover of anything anytime. Four incredible voices blended to perfection with a ton of talent backing them up. Simply a staggering performance. Congrats Halocene!
So glad to hear this!
@@Halocene You wanted to perform something that inspired people and gave them hope. It did both for me. It's been a rough year. This helped me through.
No idea how I didn't see this when it came out, but I never want to stop listening to this version. Fantastic!
my brain after watching this 9 times:
*do it again*
"Dew it!"
-Sheev Palpatine
This is the sound that created the universe we know today. You all have earned a life long fan and admirer. Words can’t form sentences to describe this.
Same!
HELL YES!
You brought tears to this old man's eyes.
This old man's too.
As a musician I’m clearly watching this from a different view. I’m absolutely blown away and couldn’t think of one thing to improve. You guys all did a spectacular job and the creativity is off the charts. I’m honored to be able to have listened to this piece. Keep doin you and being amazing . Thankyou for sharing your work !!!
Literal chills throughout this whole song. My god and the segment from 4:07 to 4:23 shook me to my core it was so good! Just hearing their voices by themselves was incredible. Of course the other musicians did amazing to but that one part plays on repeat in my head.
It took Brad 14.000.605 hours to finish editing this!😱
Thankyou Brad! 👏👏👏
well in that time he could watch all Versions of the Avengers vs Thanos
I've seen so much over-production in the world of art as a whole: I've seen photographs processed to an extent where the soul of the image was lost forever. I've seen videos where the post-production was taken so far that only the veneer of the original concept remains. I've heard covers and collaborations that distance themselves so far from the essence of the song being covered, that one is left to just shake their head. THIS...THIS was the most moving, compelling, soul-filling, piece of ***ART*** that i've seen in over 20 years of critiquing, creating, and consulting. There was never a moment where the original song's essence was lost. Rather, in its stead, a new generation's sincerest tip of the cap, a showcase of exceptional skill from every member who participated. If in 100 years the Rock and Roll museum doesn't showcase Journey's most famous song, with your rendition alongside it, it would be a tragedy. I cannot adequately convey what I'm feeling at this moment. I cannot recall a moment in my life where I've been moved by music in this way.
Agree totally with you... i am impressed... More and more brilliant young musicians with unlimited skills are invading our planet.
In Canada, with bands as interesting as Motion Device, Sina in Germany with incredible (and in continuous growing) young talented friends, Andrei Cerbu's ecosystem of projects in Romania with extraordinary female singers (latest, Romina Apostol is... no words...) Awesome guitarists as Mark Ostro, Jasmine Star, Tina S, Baby Saster, MelSick, Ayla Tesler... Genius as Rob Scallon... and more, and more...
great voices with great musicians . i love it
No small task covering possibly the 80s-est 80 songs! Took some chances with the arrangement! What you produced is nothing short of breathtaking! You should all be very proud!
No synth, though automatically discarded? No?
There's so much emotion from everyone involved, I'm blown away. Amazing work and keep on rocking!
Amazing!
the song brought tears to my eyes! The vocals were so powerful!!! i love the blend of voices
Great singers all of them, and also hats off to the guys playing the instruments, truly amazing
Two years later, listening for the thousandth time it seems like, and just noticed that layered Lauren scream at the 4:24 to 4:28 mark.
Really gonna need to see all these vocalists again sometime + Jonathan young and Caleb hyles
4:18 😍, that harmony is just incredible
One of the best studio bands I've ever heard. So well rounded and still has that magic touch that technique alone can't quantify.
Not to mention the vox. But that's obvious to most.
Respect to the boys. 🤜 🤛
Jesus lord almighty, I've watched/listened to this song. I still am suprised at the amazing amount of talent in this video. From editing, harmonies, and just pure unadluterated talent. Y'all are all so inspiring and truly awesome people. Congrats on 12 years( a little late)!!
3 years later and this still rendition still reduces me to a weeping puddle of sing-a-long tears. Don’t Stop Believing is already a monumental piece of music but you’ve all managed to make it ten times bigger. Bypasses the ears and goes straight to the heart. Bravo!
Everyone else: pay attention to makeup, surroundings, lighting, presentation...
Lauren: aight lemme put this sweater and rock this song with my voice
But shes Lauren
and some great air guitar skills too
I know you did not mean it in a bad way or anything. She in fact is also wearing make-up. This is fine since she and everyone else in this video should just record the video how they feel most comfortable. They all have great voices and they all rocked that cover.
That's why she's my favorite artist
@@joleenphelps7617 But u can tell she’s worried about it the least so the joke still works.
just awesome ....... it just brings a great atmosphere and that is sooooo good in the corona time .... more of it, please ;D
The Best Cover of This Song I have EVER HEARD. Great Job Guys ! I am 62 years old and I know my Music. This is Fantastic !
This was beautiful, I cried because after this year and hearing your message at the end this song was needed
4:18 made me cry and gave me goosebumps. best part about the song. Love every min of it. Awesome job. Still doesn't top your Bohemian Rhapsody cover but this is a close 2nd.
You all are SoSo Awesome keep it up Love you all stay safe God Bless
You make me cry. What a amazing cover and history, you guys deserv everything you won till now and so much more! Thank you guys for makes us don't stop believin!
it makes me cry, its a wonderfull cover, i love covers of Halocene, F211, Violet Orlandi, and Lauren Babic
Adding instruments was pleasantly unexpected. What a beautiful performance! Thank you for brightening my very busy day and bringing a smile to my facel
Just a small town girl
Livin' in a lonely world
She took the midnight train goin' anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in South Detroit
He took the midnight train goin' anywhere
A singer in a smokey room
The smell of wine and cheap perfume
For a smile they can share the night
It goes on and on, and on, and on
Strangers, waitin'
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows
Searchin' in the night
Streetlights, people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night
Workin' hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Payin' anything to roll the dice
Just one more time
Some will win
Some will lose
Some were born to sing the blues
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on, and on, and on
Strangers waitin'
Up and down the boulevard
Their shadows
Searchin' in the night
Streetlights, people
Livin' just to find emotion
Hidin' somewhere in the night
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight, people
Don't stop, believin'
Hold on
Streetlights, people
Don't stop believin'
Hold on to that feelin'
Streetlight, people
The song builds up soooo much emotion and then your outro breaks me everytime 😢
Just stumbled on this vid today (1\3\24) in my quest to see and hear EVERY version of "Don't Stop Believin'". This was fantastic! You guys are GREAT!
I'm not crying you're crying
I'm definitely crying, that was amazing
I said that after I watched Addie at the end
This song has special meaning for me. My daughter was born today when the time was called for her birth this song was playing. This is my favorite version.
2021 is even harder than 2020 and you keep us all going. Every single one of you. Dont stop....
Please cover Don't Stop Me Now by Queen.
I don't care who you are, this is one of the best rock songs ever. You can't help jamming to it.
That was FUCKING amazing!!!!!! Thank you all for this! You guys are ALL so damn talented!!!!!!!
thx amy!
@@Halocene hi there girls @Lauren Babic @Violet Orlandi and others can you please do me a request for the song These Are The Days of Our Lives by Queen ?? Thank you very much for all your talented work you are amazing ❤️🎤🎸❤️
Tears everytime!!! No im not that old but this was my high school grad song in 2010 ❤❤❤
This made me so emotional. Beautiful work from everyone involved. Wow.
This actually brought tears of joy to me
I'm gonna tell my kids this is the original song
Don’t do that lol
I had tickets to the show in Seattle this year but ended up hospitalized on the day of. So sad I missed you all. I wanted to meet you and let you know how much you changed my life in a positive way. Maybe I'll be at the next show. Don't stop believing!
Addie's control never ceases to impress me! On that note, I'd love to hear her take on the Synthesis version of Evanescence's My Heart is Broken
When I tell you I CRIED actual tears listening to this cover. I’m never listening to the original the same ever again. I love all the people involved in making this
4 distinct voices.. one (of many) incredible collabs.
I have to admit, the way you guys sang this song was beautiful.
Omg guys.. You literally brought tears to my eyes.
I've heard this song 20time in a row and I absolutely love all their voices!!!
I"m at a total loss for words - this has all been so amazing - it started when I found Stairway to Heaven - now I've spent the past three hours (while I'm supposed to be sleeping) listening to you all - thank you so much for bringing this all back - Like, really - thank you. I would cheerfully pay to see any of you (or all) perform live - this was so exciting (every time!)
It makes me so happy to see you all having the success you deserve, here's to all that's coming up in the future! (rly excited for that new song btw :D)
Stay tuned! More to come!
All of you guys and gals did an amazing job on this song! I love when you all get together. All of your voices compliment eachother.
