    Taking nothing away from all of the performances here, but the lead vocalist is absolutely masterclass. This young lady has serious chops, and what's most impressive is that she doesn’t oversing. I really hope we hear a lot more from her in the near future.

And the vocals....the vocals were out of this world! The harmonies were spot on and the lead vocal was exquisite! She truly has a phenomenal voice. Steve Walsh's original vocals on this song, indeed on all of the Kansas repertoire, is so distinctive it truly is what most people react to first when they hear Kansas. This young lady not only recreates that special sound she added her own beautiful vocal styling that really stands out! She reminds me of Michelle Branch... Congratulations to all! I'm sure like a lot of other people I'll be back to listen again and again.

    Although I play guitar, I think what impressed me and truly chilled me to the bone in all the best ways, was watching the lead vocalist sing those awesome lyrics that have grown in their depth of meaning to me in the 45 years since it came out in November of 1976. And hearing this young girl (and her awesome backups who made incredible 4-part!) SING out these lyrics with a conviction far beyond their age and before their time. I think there’s no disputing that if Kerry Livgren were to see this, it would warm his old heart.

      @@iatsd Well, I went back and watched the video again. I’ve got to say I’m sticking to my guns on this one. I still maintain that her power, clarity and tone are impressive to me and I certainly know that most people (female or not; American or not) do not sound as good as she does to me. I listen to a fair amount of music and when a voice gets my attention in a positive way, then it’s usually because there’s a good level of quality behind it. I wouldn't say I'm qualified to compare her voice to someone like Laura Fabian (or any other elite level vocalist) and honestly, I'm not interested in doing so. I just really liked what I heard. Perhaps our ears and minds interpret things differently. I’m glad mine interpret things the way they do.

      I'm 43 and I agree that this Young Lady on Vocals has a Voice like an Angel and potentially out does the original performance & its just Simply Amazing how all of the band for that matter is beyond spot on. Every single song these kids play just blows me away.
      I'm assuming, though possibly wrongly but that you may not be a Tool fan or even know who they are, but just to educate you on Tool a little bit.
      By most Modern Rock or just Rock Fans period who know who they are and have any clue what real music is by far they are considered light years beyond every and all bands ever. Bar None.
      Their writing and performances are considered not only light years above and beyond every band who's ever existed for thousands of reasons from intricacies of song writing in ways its hard to explain because every song they write is pieced together like Scientists piecing together a science experiment much like a heavier version of Rush, mixed with the Beauty & Pop Sensiblity of the Beatles & Led Zeppelin, with the edge of Black Sabath, the Rawness of The Rolling Stones, the Creativeness of Queen and the Ability to Understand and Explain the Human Condition like Pink Floyd, with a little touch of every greatest Band from the 50s, 60s,70s,80,s & 90s. Who's only Modern Worthy Bands to be in the same sentence as them would be bands like Alice in Chains, Nirvana, Sound Garden & Audioslave.
      They're in a League all their own and I've literally never heard a worthy cover of any of their songs by anyone ever famous or not that i can think of. I honestly can't think of anyone who's actually ever even attempted it come to think of it and these kids have not only covered Tool in a way multiple times that does Tool justice by quite possibly having almost matched them in such Stellar Performances. It's something difficult to put into words how amazing they covered their songs which are some of the most Intricate and amazing songs ever written.
      I hope you'll give them a listen and see in it what so many Lovers of the Greatest have found in them.
      Also the lead Singer of Tool is a Renosance Man, a modern day Leonardo DaVinci of sorts involved in so many amazing projects and other bands like (A Perfect Circle) which in my opinion is a less Edgy and more Beautifully Emotional Version of a Similar Need to take what's possible in amazing music to its extremes and beyond.
