This one goes out to Christopher Reeve RIP Superman

[@VidHawke]

Look.. up on the stage.. it's a nerd.. it's a geek.. it's a rockstar.. NO! It's ERock! Faster than a speeding soundwave, more powerful than a sonic cannon, able to leap tall movie themes in a single chord!

[@packiemcreary7188]

You deserve more likes than 5 lol

[@matthew_good7795]

LMFAO XD SO TRUE

[@JasonL77]

You have just won the internet. (Yes, I know that’s overused, but your comment deserves it.)

[@BennyLlama39]

VidHawke Okay... I'm giving you a like just because I could never come up with something like that. 😀

[@GrEyPrEiSt]

Now that's an introduction

[@Aquila009]

Superman may be the man of steel. BUT you are THE MAN OF METAL.

[@AgeofReason]

Comment is 7 years old and underrated af unless you copied it from someone else. But if this was your original comment not copied, underrated AF

[@ShyDaniel2112]

Doesn't matter the instrument, the majesty of John Williams' work always shines through.

[@marcayu]

Crisis on Infinite Earths proved to us all that Brandon ROuth was trully the Superman we really needed. Sad Returrns didn't gave him the story he deserved, but he was able to close Reeve's story.

[@PunishRock]

Kal-El was not the only survivor of Krypton's explosion :D

[@pr1t561]

+Fabrice Blin obviosly supa girl

[@MsXizan]

That's inappropriate.

[@MsXizan]

***** Etiquette AND grammar police.

[@pr1t561]

***** lollĺl

[@Safersephiroth777]

When the story first came out he was though.

[@mileshill7196]

I love the quiet part before the finale, really highlights the "Clark Kent" aspect of superman. He may have all kinds of fantastic abilities, but in the end, superman is just as human as you or me.

[@jacobphillips3882]

Actually, no he's not, he's Kryptonian. He just pretends to be human. :P

[@spencerpettus1954]

Jacob Phillips He's as pretend human as you or me!

[@logandarklighter]

My favorite quote in regards to that comes from Lois and Clark - the Adventures of Superman. When he reveals his identity to her and she questions if Clark Kent is all an act and who IS he anyway? "Lois - Superman is what I DO. Clark Kent is who I AM."

[@joecraven2712]

@@jacobphillips3882 Actually no, the whole underlying point in the character is that although he is an alien, he is just as “human” as anyone else, if not more so.

[@furrantee]

That intro....That. Intro.......oh yeah, good times ahead.

[@valfareinwindir]

Superman, the Best Superhero of ALL TIMES!!!!! I grown with him, thanks Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster for create my favorite Hero

[@shallnotbeinfringed5916]

That should be the national anthem lol

[@goldiewilson4698]

shallnot beinfringed I grew up in Kansas General, I'm about as American as it gets!

[@BennyLlama39]

Musically, it can't be any harder to sing than the current anthem. Even professional singers have problems with it.

[@valfareinwindir]

But of the World

[@FarkJoeB]

All stand for the Kryptonian planetary anthem.

[@SecularFelinist]

Had a bowl of cereal while listening to this, and it was the most epic cereal ever.

[@jaysonraphaelmurdock8812]

Bahahahahahaha

[@svartfrasr9755]

The Superman Theme we deserve...

[@simonster-9094]

but not the superman theme we need

[@mbhp2009]

wat?

[@PrimeTimez2003]

are u guys thinking of batman line??

[@bleu8790]

Oh hell ya

[@PeterStellenberg]

Awesome ! I would like to see the animated series version into metal.

[@greebspider355]

Yo bro, this IS the animated series theme song.

[@danielwilson7193]

No it isn't. This is theme of the movies.

[@the_narthex]

Perhaps Rob K is referring to the older 1988 animated series which did indeed use the John Williams theme.

[@danielwilson7193]

Ah. That works.

[@charlieboy1983]

as a true Christopher reeve superman fan and fan of the original i wasn't expecting to like this but happily found myself smiling amazing job my friend

[@AgeofReason]

STILL jamming this in 22

I never get tired of this....

[@disheartenme]

That rendition made me nostalgic for the old school superman, thank you! Also, your guitar looks beautiful~

[@jflores85]

I always the feeling of HOPE when I hear this theme, the Man of Steel is ok but not as uplifting as the John Williams Theme

[@trevorday7923]

Doesn't need the mega-speed MMMETAL drumming, but aside from that.... utter perfection

[@RetroTy]

John Williams is the MAN... and so are you for pulling this one off so beautifully!

[@stevenwright366]

I love the part where he looks at his shirt

[@nikrbawker]

I never watch the vids xD just listen

[@JmgStrength]

54l0HC1N you should watch so you could study his technique, if you play guitar that is

[@nikrbawker]

I don't :P I play ultra street fighter I leave the music to you folks. Actually I got around to watching him one day. Hes fun to watch as well.

[@nikrbawker]

I really like watching buckethead not because of his costume but because of his playing and his new cool arcade buttons.

[@VTuber_Central]

he should've wore a white shirt, then rip open to see the super costume, run off then come back as super erock

[@jazzyj3059]

Dude, you are a freak'n rockstar!

[@per-olaeriksson2589]

Good work , SUPERMAN !

[@Attikinable]

All of the centers of my brain that register awsomeness just went into massive overload! This is the most awesome thing I've heard for a long time - having loved Superman since childhood and loving this version of the music.

[@theangrygazebo6224]

Your covers are so amazing. I get gooseflesh and even misty-eyed at the sheer skill and beauty of the tracks you pick. You are not only an amazing artist, but a fine curator of music.

[@chaosgt8827]

Please I am BEGGING you Do "Man of Steel Meets Metal"

[@WCP4to]

EVEN HIS HAIR WANTS TO HEAR IT CLOSELY!

[@darxcyber]

holy crap i wish i had 0.5 % of your talent!!!

[@rarsoapus]

Man, you are way too young to be that cool. I know I've got at least 18 years on you, but you remind me of the guys I went to school with in the late 80's and early 90's. A true blast from the past. Keep the feel alive, bro. You've definitely got the gift of metal in your blood.

[@Rotard12a]

This made my evening. Dunno about all of the demand comments, but I'm guessing whatever your next vid is it will be awesome as well. Thanks for showing everybody that all they need to shred is a guitar and some enthusiasm

[@fgfh10004]

I'd love to see a Man of Steel meets Metal :P

[@Dragnotey]

You sir are amazing!

[@MrKrijen]

2:45.... them chills man...

[@ipurley85]

I cannot LIKE this video enough....i totally see the Superman II intro with this!!!! WELL DONE,SIR!!!

[@ipurley85]

Seriously man....you need to tour and do all this stuff....cuz this is the BEST metal cover EVER!!!! all you stuff is so FANTASTIC!!!!!!!! YOU sir.....are ROCK-TACULAR!!!!!

[@SherynRouf]

Please do the justice league unlimited theme

[@emperorpalpatine3021]

It is allredy metal

[@LoneBaldEagle]

I like it.

[@helpdeskconfessions]

Anyone else worried Lex Luther is gonna show up with a pick made of kryptonite?

[@Cowgirlcadet]

Sergio Lopez 😄

[@Tekkaman1994]

i'm only finding this now in 2021. Holy shit. This is amazing, incredible and awesome. John William's Superman theme was so iconic! He is one of my favorite movie music composers, and this 331Erock comes along and blows my mind. I'll admit, I was trying not to cry, but the tears came. RIP Christopher Reeve. He was my Superman(former child of the 80's) WAY before Henry Cavil came along in the current era.

[@jessicazankert5198]

Superhelden mochte ich schon als Kind und bin immer noch ein Fan. Nur dieser hier hat die Fähigkeit, alle mit seinem Lächeln abzustecken. Ich würde gern mal all seine Werke auf einen Gegenstand (USB-Stick oder Disk) haben, das macht so ein Spaß, zuzuschauen.

[@DavidNicholson101]

Should have been the theme to Man of Steel.

[@DavidNicholson101]

***** Oh, didn't know that. TY

[@smallclone]

Should have been the theme to man of snore, that movie sucked.

[@texcorps9432]

smallclone not.

[@MsXizan]

smallclone They really screwed it up. A: because he's a PACIFIST at heart, according to the original comic books, Superman would NEVER surrender to the FUCKING US ARMY or even the local PD's SWAT and (B) Superman DOESN'T FUCKING KILL PEOPLE!

[@texcorps9432]

Angela Roquemore lol.

[@TheConsoleCommunist]

I like the part where he plays guitar really good

[@frankstrawnation]

Super, man.

[@nicholastesoriero4855]

XD

[@canblood]

This guy is an amazing guitar player. I wish I could shred like that.

[@Barford1812]

Ya big eeejit ya, love the superman style outfit change. You already know you rock, another incredible arrangement..... "Super Man"

[@S95vofficial]

Hans Zimmer Man of Steel, please? :D

[@the_narthex]

Sure. Why not? Every concert has that depressing song where everyone pulls out the phone and sways their hands back and forth.

[@mazarinepriest7531]

That first shirt was not ok.

[@bibniebt]

Reminds me of Justice League Unlimited

[@ThrashChrist]

The happiest guitar player I know. Never stop rocking, dude!

[@loghorizon5477]

Dude you are freaking me out of how good you are!

[@runingblackbear]

its not country its not rock ( its supper metal man )

[@vader123]

Great job! My man. First time poster. But been flowing you since the beginging. Dude! This was awesome! I've searched youtube, and by far your version is the best. I love it how you mix it up and not keep it all hard metal riffs, like went you brought down for a moment on the Lois and Superman Love Theme, Awesome! Fan for life! Keep'em coming!

[@A3Rhan]

Yesssss! I've been looking for Superman meets Metal. My day is complete. Thank-you.

[@PanosK2987]

This is probably the best guitar cover of the Superman theme. I wish you had include the Krypton theme, that would be uber epic!

[@antoniogirgenti9738]

AWESOME!!! My dad would love this!!! He used to watch the old Superman all the time as a kid. I do sometimes I do too. But this WOW!!!

[@ki-pattao9030]

Best Superman theme music ever

[@davidtancon9975]

Dude you are so good, always a joy to hear what you do to songs.

[@Longshot593]

Congratulations sir. Due to your sheer talent and obvious sense of fun and humor, you have just won yourself another subscriber!

[@black79montecarlo123]

About damn time I can hear this again! Thanks bro awesome job. No other covers even come close!

[@joshuafuresz31101]

This video right here sold me, I knew that after watching this video I had to subscribe. I am a die hard superman fan and seeing you just destroy the theme to this and make it better! I am appalled by this. I envy you for your talent. I am actually jealous, i dream to play like you. Thank you so much for doing these videos and continuing to amaze me with you gift from the guitar gods!

[@CptAHad]

You, sir, have earned a subscribe. You managed to combine two of my most favorite things in the world. Superman, and metal.

[@WabbitRB]

All the best ones are the ones that don't involve any lyrics I've found. And thank you for staying true to the classics!

[@harrypage7324]

My favourite one out of all the pieces of music you've played

[@castielle532]

This guy is just OOZING with talent. Happy to share the name.

[@KalEl2404]

The best metal version I've heard.

[@FVanth]

Love how you change into Supes in the beginning. LOVED it.

[@jwjones1979]

Nice Jay intro!!! Nootch! This is one of my favorite movie scores ever!

[@jacksonkigv19]

That's what he does in most his songs, uplift. Changes it up, and I think that part was excellent.

[@ericduerbeck2505]

Brother. It's the first time I've left a comment but I've seen a lot of your videos. I've shared them with a lot of my friends. Awesome. Keep it up

[@TheD0CT0RWH0fan]

Loved the entrance dude, awesome. Keep rockin' them out for the masses. You are the best :)

[@terryconnelly8241]

the best guitarists are behind the scenes...this guy is one of them...hey EROCK....Give sabre dance a whirl... a twirl

[@FromCoast2CoastGamin]

I love Superman.. this just gave me the chills man. big props

[@timfarides8894]

Production is always top-notch, well done E.

[@johnprudent3216]

Bee-yoo-tifully done! Love the "Can You Read my Mind?" portion of the theme at 3:06!

[@f00tbol]

Thank you Erock!!!, I wanted to hear you do this one a while ago, love the Superman theme one of my favorites by John if not the favorite, it always pumps me up...people probably cant tell but I'm wearing a man of steel shirt on my youtube pic :-)

[@mamadoritos]

epicness is endless. this theme is one of john william's best.

[@NachtRittr]

All Sons and Daughters of Krypton should celebrate the musical ministrations of this dark haired Bard of the Home of the House of El!

[@McDeath101]

greatest hero, greatest score and the f******** greatest version of this song i've ever heard! Eric you are amazing!!! greetz from Germany!

[@RetroTy]

LOVE,LOVE,LOVE the riff @ 2:45

[@lombardi1969]

please keep up the good work on these musical videos and never give up at all.

[@robertjustice3814]

Best theme ever. For the greatest hero ever. Done by one of the most talented people I've yet witnessed! ;) DOUBLE LIKE

[@Lutzow706]

Absolutely magnificent. Well done, man.

[@davidwinn1960]

You are AWESOME ! Next request to make life perfect......Bonanza and Six Million Dollar Man Themes. Maybe Bionic Woman ( the original 70's show), Knight Rider, and The Incredible Hulk TV show ( Bill Bixby/ Lou Ferrigno) Themes. You totally floored me.

[@Alex-yy2mf]

Oh my gawd I am literally I'm love with this guy. I haven't stopped listening to his covers since 3:30 am and I haven't stopped talking about the song ever since ~ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤ ❤

[@neorotoxin]

Fantasic. You really brought back the nostalgia and good feelings that i remember so fondly from watching the original movies when i was little. Keep up the good work! And do Gurren Lagann if you can!

[@meathawk87]

Excellent job on the Christopher Reeves intro, the only superman of worth.

[@Johnhenryguitarlessons]

Hey Eric! If I'm understanding this right you are also a master composer/arranger and music editor/programmer. Each composition has so many cool parts added to it. Sounds like new and relevant music just flows out of your fingers like water from a faucet! WOW!!

[@thorthepowerhead]

Probably your most complete work yet! Awesome!

[@AaronDoombringer]

Wow this version is simply amazing, I am floored.

[@ladyofthesith1943]

Hell yeah, this is awesome! Superman is my favorite fictional character ever, and you did his theme justice with this video.

[@mik3deans]

I was hoping you done this, and you did not disappoint:D Brilliantly done man

[@iamalmetal]

i could spend my entire day just by watching this guy! awesome!

[@superericdude100]

[@drums4lyfe0987]

seen alot of requests for super mari meets metal, and i have to agree that would be awesome, especially the bowser theme. and also i saw someone suggest the walking dead TV them meets metal.... either way, as a fellow Eric (Erock is actually my nickname at work from a few of my co-workers LOL), metal lover, and music enthusiast, i say keep up the awesome work. no matter what you got planned next i have no doubt it will be EPIC \m/ \m/

[@Kyp2010]

So, I found this via his rendition of the trolololol song as I was looking through trololo videos and ... all I can say is epic. Great job.. Eric (I believe that's the name i've seen in comments) this was a freakin' excellent job at this.

[@joemarek7881]

Everything I've heard from you is spot on! You've giving these instrumentals the metal respect they deserve!

[@FriezaDBZKing69]

John Williams is crying tears of joy, his hat off in his hand and over his heart, looking off at an epic sunset with Superman flying away with a giant American Flag swaying in the background. John Williams would be proud. GO EROCK!!!!

[@lilDarkwytch]

omg dude your freakin awesome.. that brought back sooooo many memories!!!! love the way you did that
