While the music video of the original is a treat to watch, I prefer the Morris Day cover of the song over the original. Rockwell attempted to cover for his lack of talent with over the top ham. The Day cover is both funky and creepy.
I always feel like you can't get any better when I'm watching a new vid from you, then the next video comes out and your technique and style keep improving so much. Awesome rendition!
I was just listening to this song for the first time in years yesterday and then you went and uploaded your version of it XD It's almost as if you were watching me...
i was just getting nostalgic for this song again, with halloween coming up and stuff and listened to various renditions yesterday so... perfect timing!
Hi, i'm from germany so my english is not the best. I've grown up with metal and have your videos hammered, please more. Especially, I celebrate your smile when you play, since see right that you have fun, really continue so👍👍👍😘🤘🤘🤘
Rockwell did most of the vocal parts, and well it helped that Rockwell is Berry Gordy's son.. that's why Jackson, in secret (without Gordy's knowledge or permission) did the chorus as a favor to him... this concludes your pop up video moment...
The metal guitar added to this was really cool. I already liked the song before, but the metal enhanced the sound of the song and made it seem like it was made to be a metal song. Great guitar playing. The solos were awesome but a little hard to hear. Awesome looking guitar, too. :)
Love all your videos, especially collabs with Rob Lundgren, it would be awesome if you could do a metal cover and collab with Hannah Boulton that was in the Frogleap cover of Africa. Keep them videos coming!
Dude this is awesome, you are one of the few people that can make a classic sound better than it is. Just wondering if you could metalize the theme for the movie "Christine." I know its a long shot askin, but heres hoping =)
I don't know what this song is actually called, but... the theme from the Safe Haven from The Evil Within? It would fit the Halloween theme really well I feel. It's also a really eerie song.
Haha rockwell well played erock i appreciate your song choices so much but when is your colab with paul gilbert going to happen surely if he did guitar hero hero he would do a colab with the great erock....
I have a sudden urge to save 15% or more on my car insurance.
Urge confirmed
This song is a classic. And now its metal!
Good job
it was already metal: th-cam.com/video/BH7LllycfME/w-d-xo.html
he's playing heavy metal guitar, and he can't stop smiling, I can't stop laughing
Maybe it's not heavy metal but heavy smile 😁

"Fixing pop music since 2009"
true
It does not need to be fixed.
_cyanogen_ _synthesis_ eeeeeehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh I beg to differ
Your point being?
Jaiden Ratliff Yap only since when it was invented. True story
I consider Rockwell's "Somebody's Watching Me" a Halloween song just as much as "Ghostbusters" by Ray Parker Jr. is. Nice work on this one, E!
SAME!!!!
While the music video of the original is a treat to watch, I prefer the Morris Day cover of the song over the original. Rockwell attempted to cover for his lack of talent with over the top ham. The Day cover is both funky and creepy.
Look for the Morris Day cover.
Your hair is particularly majestic in this video.
The sower of the year
3:09 oh my goodness that was filthy!!! WOW!!
I absolutely love this video 👌👍
I always feel like you can't get any better when I'm watching a new vid from you, then the next video comes out and your technique and style keep improving so much. Awesome rendition!
oh stahp!!
oh your puppers are adorable.
For the longest time I didn't know Michael Jackson did the backup vocals
Hair looking as silky smooth as your perfect playing dude! Loved it
Dude, love the horse mane hair. Majestic
The PERFECT addition to my Halloween soundtrack!
This is always been my favorite cut that you've done. This one and ECW.
I never knew I needed a metal cover of this. Thanks Erock!
Dude you got nicer hair than my wife. Nice work.
Awe your fur babies. This makes me happy.
We have an opening in the League, if you’re interested.
Why would a guitar god join a superhero team?
Teridax You never know, face melting parademons might be useful.
Trainrekt
Teridax have you never heard of the Justice Friends?
uuuh, nope. don't really give a fuck about DC/Marvel/everything similar anymore.
i can tell you really enjoy what you do. never stop
I was just listening to this song for the first time in years yesterday and then you went and uploaded your version of it XD It's almost as if you were watching me...
The melody translates so well on guitar! Love how much fun you're having 🥰
It's amazing how this guy sent viral over and over and over six or five years ago, but he's still turning out the same amazing work.
Votre solo perso (notamment le 1er) est d'une propreté hallucinante. Vraiment bien joué
Good job dude! You always make Metal so happy. Lol! Ya just done see many guys performing with a smile in metal bands.
Warmen made a really good cover just like this version, with the keyboardist and Alexi Laiho of COB. This version is just as great!
Dang, dude...as usual, that solo was #thesickness ! But those arpeggios at 3:52 are what it's all about. If I may quote Beavis, "Yes! YESSSSSS!!!" 🤘🏼😆
331Erock Your hair looks so shiny and flowy in this video! :D
Just look at that luscious hair!
i was just getting nostalgic for this song again, with halloween coming up and stuff and listened to various renditions yesterday so... perfect timing!
Very nice! Regards from Portugal!
one of my favorite songs with a metal version! i love you Erock!
Dude I’m soo jealous of your hair
Your hair is getting so long and beautiful!!
The answer to your question, @331Erock, is me. I'm watching you @331Erock
Great work with this song, undoubtedly you hear incredible, thank you :D
He did dirty things to that song. Good job bro, great guitarist
OMG I accidentally found this song after 10+ years!!! Thank you 331Erock.
pls do more classical music covers. They're awesome!
Another One of My Favorite Halloween Songs, and You just Made it Better!🎃❤️📺🎶👍🏻
That solo man...I was not expecting that lol.Great cover!
Hi, i'm from germany so my english is not the best. I've grown up with metal and have your videos hammered, please more.
Especially, I celebrate your smile when you play, since see right that you have fun, really continue so👍👍👍😘🤘🤘🤘
Awesome Metal Performance
OH DEAR LORD YES FINALLY THIS SONG
That riff at 2:13-2:43 OMFG!!
I love how many people think Michael Jackson sang this song (and yes he does the chorus but not the whole song)
Random Viewer only because rockwell was related to an exec
Michael was Rockwell’s Brother in law
Ah, but the chorus makes this song work so well
I always thought that it sounded like Michael in the chorus, but I didn't actually think it was him. Wow! Learn something new every day.
Rockwell did most of the vocal parts, and well it helped that Rockwell is Berry Gordy's son.. that's why Jackson, in secret (without Gordy's knowledge or permission) did the chorus as a favor to him... this concludes your pop up video moment...
Thank you so much for doing this ! :)
Do Who Could It Be Now by Men at Work to round it off!
Awesome! What a spooky classic. Nice work sir! :)
Yess, you always makes everything you play sound soo kool haha
One of my favorite songs! Absolutely killed it! Love you man! 🤘🤘🤘🤘
-Rob
Dude this is siiiiick! I might download and add screams to it.
Keep it up! You are an inspiration! Don't let up!
The metal guitar added to this was really cool. I already liked the song before, but the metal enhanced the sound of the song and made it seem like it was made to be a metal song. Great guitar playing. The solos were awesome but a little hard to hear. Awesome looking guitar, too. :)
nice solo tapping man, bravo 331
Night officialy made i love this so much
Dude, I had completly forgotten that hit. Thanks for digging the graves, from an 80's man ^^
Amazing Rendition!
R.I.P. Michael Jackson
You should do Ghosts and Goblins (NES) meets metal for Halloween!
So cool as always!
Love all your videos, especially collabs with Rob Lundgren, it would be awesome if you could do a metal cover and collab with Hannah Boulton that was in the Frogleap cover of Africa. Keep them videos coming!
Sounds a lot like CoB cover. LOVE IT!
Great job as always!
I'm in love with you.
Probably the sickest thing I've EVER heard.
Awesome cover, dude!!
Loved this.
Rockwell? More like... uh... metal... good
Damn your hair is nicer than mine
Excellent job eric!!
Rad as hell video dude!
Nice hair bro
You are such an inspiration to me.
Dude this is awesome, you are one of the few people that can make a classic sound better than it is. Just wondering if you could metalize the theme for the movie "Christine." I know its a long shot askin, but heres hoping =)
I love this!!!
Warmen comes instantly to my mind(with alexi laiho). great job
And people say heaven isn't real 😍
Eric is always rocking💙
Very nice. Also, checkout Warmen's version of this song.
GreyRabbitMedia he mentions in the description in the video
Good call. My bad for not reading the description.
GreyRabbitMedia I saw your comment first so at least you advertised it for the most who don't look at the description.
Between Erock and peacejoytown, I'm set on music for the foreseeable future :)
Erock - I'm a huge fan. I would love some Simon and Garfunkel....
I don't know what this song is actually called, but... the theme from the Safe Haven from The Evil Within? It would fit the Halloween theme really well I feel. It's also a really eerie song.
I haven't watched/listened to your covers in forever!! D:> I love these so much!! X3
This whole album deserved more praise
mind blown! subbed!!!
Haha rockwell well played erock i appreciate your song choices so much but when is your colab with paul gilbert going to happen surely if he did guitar hero hero he would do a colab with the great erock....
That was great, just enough metal to pick up the song and make it rock 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻(RESPECT)
at last i found this amazing cover
Bad arse mate keep it up stay lit.
OMG so cool . u r the best dont stop .. i love it all ur song =)
Halloween or not, this is a cool version
still surprised there isn’t a Robotech theme meets metal vid
Running in the 90s meets metal?
BigManSanFranX he worked with someone else on that. It's on a different channel
Link please?
He had a piece in this video: th-cam.com/video/NG-_CJzD1Lc/w-d-xo.html
that bass is adequate
We're watching you erock! \m/ \m/
you can listen from "warmen" btw
It's the money you could be saving with Geico.
i like Raunchy's version of this song, it's probably because that's the first version i ever heard of this song
Can we just talk about Eric's hair straightened!!! Look out ladies he's mine ;)
Awesome! Please make a cover of Dirty Diana and Give In To Me!!!!
I hoped this might exist somewhere in this universe!
