That is Gods truth … As an ancient being I never “Got” Yes … Couldn’t grasp their lyrics … Once I started to listen to their covers my entire viewpoint changed about that music… Still not a Yes Fan LOL.. But Love the tunes… Even my sister who was a die hard Yes fan likes The Geeks versions much more .. They are now her favorite band as well as mine …I feel blessed that I have them to look forward to reeducating me on so much that I over looked in my time…
Every single time I hear Emily's voice I can't help but think she's better than t least 80% of female artists who are signed. Someday there will be a executive who will end up mowing lawns because the passed on her
Super funny, but seriously that was a super tight cover. Props to Richie for being able to emulate the tone of the original lead guitar. For real that guitar part has had me listening to the song for years.
These are the things that personally fill me with joy when I notice that people like these spend their time very well singing, dancing, enjoying and making people enjoy what they brilliantly do.
@@___xyz___ I find strange that these things disturb you when in United States people consume all kind of dirty stuff like porn, snuff videos, fetiche, all that garbage. In fact, I find weird and rare when I use strong words americans get annoyed or even disturbed.
Yes! So cool to Emily and Ann Marie share vocals along with Jarrett! All the fine music, singing, humor, and geek-essence that makes you all so special -- it's been a while with all the projects underway, however the wait has been so very worth it! Andy G. on keys to hold things down -- awesome! Richie shows great restraint keeping the guitar within the spirit of the song, brilliant! Andy A. giving a strong beat and fill upon which the ladies (et. al.) can bring their lovely harmonies and leads, incredible! Thanks everyone for this fabulous midsummer surprise. The Band Geeks are back in town...
Harmony: check. Musicianship: double check. Cleverness: check. Humor: triple check. Another video destined to be Geek classic! You have got what appears to be a dynamite sound. I like what I'm hearing.
My goodness. This song is 30 years of age. What a timeless classic immortalized by Wilson Phillips and revived by Band Geeks. I was 22 when this song was released. So many memories. Thanks, Band Geek!
I've lost count of the number of times I've played this. I love the original, but, for me, this tops it and that ain't easy! This has a bit more "drive" to it and I love the slightly sustained chord on the 2nd to last "if you hold on," sends tingles etc! Beautiful sound..the vocal blend is amazing. It's nice to see these guys taking on more "commercial" numbers, especially quality stuff like this!
Brilliant. I'm in tears for two reasons: The fantastic vocals & band work..........and the beach scenes, complete with the VNB as a backdrop!! You guys rock!!
I've been watching your Yes covers for sometime now, but TH-cam keeps suggesting the older BG vids I haven't seen, so I clicked on this. Purely out of boredom and nostalgia. OMG, what an amazing cover. And the beach scenes. And the top comment is Chynna Phillips. :-) This is nothing short of amazing. Love you guys!!
That was really nice of Andy Ascolese to loan Ann Marie his hair for the beach shots! Seriously though, great job on the song. I covered that song when it came out. It ain't easy!
I laughed till the tears filled my eyes. I was admiring the quality of the music and vocals till the comedy on the beach caught me by surprise. Thank you so much!!!!!
What and who most often gets a little bit forgotten and put in background amongst all those tremendously talented musicians is Jarrett. Jarrett, you have a great voice yourself, you are a blessed kazoo artist and your (musical) humour is unforgettable. I really would love to see and hear more productions in exacly this line-up. Tremendously, Band Geeks always gets a smile on my face!
Joke as much as you like doing 'em covers, and they will still sound, look and feel magnificent. That's how good you are. Love you guys, this was a wonderful performance of an old song that brings back many fond memories! 🤧😍🥰😘
Just gotta throw some props out for Ann Marie’s bass strap and Andy G.’s shirt!! Yes these are subtle aspects compared to the incomparable vocals and splendid music, but do not underestimate the power these little things have to the over-all effectiveness of the video.... The Band Geeks check all the boxes - even ones we have yet to imagine! Another brilliant video from these exemplary talents one and all! Richie, it wasn’t till played on hi-if and headphones that I appreciated just how good the mix turned out. Well done! 😎🤙🏻🥁🎸🎹🎤🥇
Those girls have angel voices ! Other musicians are also magnificent ! Video has a sense of humor....Shortly said: PERFECT !!!! GOOD JOB GUYS AND GIRLS !!!
I was going through Band Geek withdrawal - and you come back with this. THIS! Spot on. Musically entertaining, and absolutely hilarious! Thank you everyone. Please keep it coming!
WOW! 10/10!!!! This song has been a guilty pleasure of mine since I first heard it decades ago, so when I say you absolutely nailed it, you absolutely nailed it! All the instruments, and the vocals - wow! And the video insert scenes were great - plus Jarret as Carnie was hilarious!
LOVE IT!!! LOVE IT!!! LOVE IT!!! LOVE IT!!! LOVE IT!!! LOVE IT!!! LOVE IT!!! LOVE IT!!! All that AND Chynna giving you kudos! You guys nailed it! Thanks for bringing some joy into my life.
I’m such a fan of you all. Absolutely lost my s*** when it cut to the beach and Jarrett. Like soda coming out of my nose in mid sip gif-worthy losing it. Your podcast is like the friends I look forward to hanging out with every time.
Anthony from Glasgow here: This is spectacularly wonderful. The wee lasses are lovely, the vocals are exemplary! In Scotland we've a sayin, it's Top Drawer. Haste Ye Back, Band Geeks.
I don't think you guys know how good this video is. You would be rock stars in the '80s/'90s. I have watched this video at least 30 times and each time, I am rockin' the shoulders with Emily at 2:01. I wish music was still this good today.
Thanks y’all! Another great performance! Band Geek help motivate me to put a band together after 25 years of not playing. Feels great to be back enjoying my first love, playing music. Keep them coming!
I bout fell out of my chair when I saw the beach scene!!! OMG!!! That was too funny! As usual, you guys did an awesome job with the song. Keep up the Great work!
Nice job!
😂
OMG thank you so much! We love you guys!!!
@@RichieCastellano congrats. If you are going to cover a band, approval from the artist is the best thing ever!
@@RichieCastellano Now that's a compliment! You guys deserve it!
Classy lady with a Classy comment !
That's so cool that you commented!!!
Sometimes you don’t realise how great a song is until you hear the band geeks version

This comment deserves a million likes!
Agree 100%. I’m a metal and rock guy, but I can’t stop rewatching this!
True!!!
That's true
I about spit out my coffee when the scene switched to the beach. Hilarious, and great cover!!
Is that the Verrazano bridge in the background on the boardwalk?
done worse psml
oh I know that beach one was hilarious!!! the group had the vocals of the original down pat and nicely done. The bass player was having fun!
This song has been in my mix for a while and after only hearing it many times, today was the first time I watched. So funny. Yet extremely well done.
That was brilliant. I wasn't expecting that. I loved this song in 1992.
OMG the beach footage caught me off guard! That was hilarious 😂
Nov 2024 and im still enjoying this!!!👍⭐️🔥
I am actually in the Wilson Phillips band .... This is just great!! Loved it!
@TroyDexterguitar we'd love to
know what Wendy, Chynna, and Carnie think. It's a love letter!
Kudos to you! This stuff ain’t easy!
@@probablyjarrett they will hear and see this :) They are really cool people ...
@@probablyjarrett Oh man..I am dying to know what the girls think too!!!
wow.. coming from you that's good to hear ! this was a great cover for sure.
Back 5 years later to say I still love this version of this song.
Every single time I hear Emily's voice I can't help but think she's better than t least 80% of female artists who are signed. Someday there will be a executive who will end up mowing lawns because the passed on her
I didnt know the Nacchios had a third sister who could sing like that. Loved every minute of it.
Super funny, but seriously that was a super tight cover. Props to Richie for being able to emulate the tone of the original lead guitar. For real that guitar part has had me listening to the song for years.
These are the things that personally fill me with joy when I notice that people like these spend their time very well singing, dancing, enjoying and making people enjoy what they brilliantly do.
Nice job on the beach scene! Geez, even Chynna likes your video!
I love Emily! Please feature her more.
Legendary cover, you guys are truly the best in the biz when it comes to musical tributes. I had a smile from ear to ear during this entire video!
I just blew coffee out my nose. Outstanding job.
....and I did too reading this comment..lol...thanks Mike..haha
hope it was decaf
Good humor, video, musicianship, and the best cover of Wilson Philips I've ever heard. :-)
Musically; incredibly awesome as usual! Visually, hilarious yet disturbing at the same time! Great job GEEKS!
disturbing? disturbing is all those snuff and porn videos all over the internet.
@@brunohistoriayletras that's kinda disturbing dude
@@___xyz___ I find strange that these things disturb you when in United States people consume all kind of dirty stuff like porn, snuff videos, fetiche, all that garbage. In fact, I find weird and rare when I use strong words americans get annoyed or even disturbed.
So extremely majestic! Congratulations guys. Jon and Yes deserves this Honour!
bawhahahahahaha great cover! Total guilty pleasure and you guys did a fantastic version!
Not surprised at all to see Metal Jesus show up here. The man knows good games AND good music!
I was just watching your Wii collection video and came to this after a commercial lol crazy coincidence!
I love the beach scene! Just like the original video...and the guitar play kicks butt!
I wasn't expecting the music video reenactment ... that was priceless. Great job guys, you always sound awesome.
More like a piss take than a re enactment. Sounds good and close to the original though.
Holy crap! Not only is this the best cover of this song I’ve ever heard but this video is PRIMO.

This is better. Love you all in the studio. Musically perfect production and inspirational. Things went with that day. love you all
Harmony: check. Musicianship: double check. Cleverness: check. Humor: triple check. Another video destined to be Geek classic! You have got what appears to be a dynamite sound. I like what I'm hearing.
you guys are so genius... plus i like the red head in the blazer. Hook me up with her Richie.
Ann Marie and Emily together for this song.......doesn't get any better.
I'm once again reminded why it's one of my favourite pop songs of all time.
I positively love this. The spoof beach scenes were the best.
Emily Nacchio, what a blessed voice you have!! Congrats
I've decided this is the best thing on the internet
This was AWESOME!!!! Love the beach scene with the red wig.
They hit another one out of the park! Everything about this is dialed in so perfectly.
My goodness. This song is 30 years of age. What a timeless classic immortalized by Wilson Phillips and revived by Band Geeks. I was 22 when this song was released. So many memories. Thanks, Band Geek!

I'm sure I'm at 500 views already.
I'll be honest with you, I love their music, I do, I'm a Band Geeks fan. I celebrate their entire catalogue.
Brilliant. I'm in tears for two reasons: The fantastic vocals & band work..........and the beach scenes, complete with the VNB as a backdrop!! You guys rock!!

I couldnt hit the like button fast enough when it cut to them on the beach. That shit killed me. Thanks for making my night.
Damn I just fell in love with Ann Marie Castellano :P
Band Geeks always lift my spirts when felling flat. Music is such a game changer

I really would love to see and hear more productions in exacly this line-up.

@@probablyjarrett Why no more Kazoo? 😢
I insist, you are true geniuses...congratulations guys. I love this version...
I’ve played this numerous times during the pandemic and it never fails to bring a smile to my face. You guys were doing God’s work here. Bravo 👏🏼
I listen to this once a day everyday.
Absolutely stunning. Almost identical to the original. Very well done. Love it. Thx so much for sharing
Emily Nacchio is the BEST!!! Amazing voice
Joke as much as you like doing 'em covers, and they will still sound, look and feel magnificent. That's how good you are. Love you guys, this was a wonderful performance of an old song that brings back many fond memories! 🤧😍🥰😘
Great job! Luv you Emily❤
Finally! Another Band Geek classic video. Just in time for summer! Great vocals and musicianship as ALWAYS!
No matter how many times I watch this I can't get enough..... If my day is shit, I pull this up. flashbacks to Wilson Phillips, with a few hiccups....
Just gotta throw some props out for Ann Marie’s bass strap and Andy G.’s shirt!! Yes these are subtle aspects compared to the incomparable vocals and splendid music, but do not underestimate the power these little things have to the over-all effectiveness of the video....

Great Band....
Enjoyed that way more than I’d like to admit
WOW! 10/10!!!! This song has been a guilty pleasure of mine since I first heard it decades ago, so when I say you absolutely nailed it, you absolutely nailed it! All the instruments, and the vocals - wow! And the video insert scenes were great - plus Jarret as Carnie was hilarious!
Wow, this is the best cover of "Hold On" I have ever heard! The spoofs of Venice Beach are a hilarious bonus!!!
My goodness, what a great combination of musical virtuosity and comedy hilarity. Bravo Geeks!!!

You're welcome.

I never liked this song until I cam across this video. Great cover!
I don't think you guys know how good this video is. You would be rock stars in the '80s/'90s. I have watched this video at least 30 times and each time, I am rockin' the shoulders with Emily at 2:01. I wish music was still this good today.
