35. Phil Collins / You’ll be in my Heart

[@eggy68]

I never understood why my dad was so into the Tarzan soundtrack. He listened to that CD non-stop for over a year. It wasn't until he passed (way too early) that it came to me. Dad connected to the themes of love, adoption and fatherly protection because of my adoption. Thanks for being a part of a song that helped me understand my father in a way I hadn't.

[@eskilseter]

Yeah, I remember this song suddenly hitting me hard when I became a dad.

[@paulcochrane1028]

eggy68 Lovely story!

[@marcelopacheco9991]

Beautiful story, you made me cry.

[@hardhitter0421]

Wow...

[@GhostOfJohnLennon]

Your dad has great taste. Great soundtrack. Really some of Phil Collins best work. The Brother Bear soundtrack is worth checking out, though I guess those songs are about brotherhood.

[@TomoFujitaMusic]

Thanks so much for sharing everyday. Your bass playing, your kind heart... I am learning so much!!

[@mikelawrence8795]

My 2 year old, Jack, just saw me watching this video. “Daddy! Santa plays bass too!!”. Thank you for making me almost as cool as Santa - and for all these videos! Keep safe and sane!

[@MelissaThompson432]

That's great...Daddy and Santa.... 😊❤

[@lelandsklar6363]

Mike Lawrence Love it!🎅🏽

[@stevelutzke9600]

That is just an awesome story! Keep the great videos coming and the story telling!

[@Art_Sklyar]

Santa plays bass too)))))

[@pmatosinhos]

The same here man! My 2 years kid.

[@willon50]

My mom passed away 1 month ago, I still remember when we went to watch Tarzan, and she told me that's my song for you. Now I'm 35, she was 58 (young), now she's in my heart. Cheers from Mexico, Mr. Sklar, love your videos.

[@jerzia3390]

Lee, Thank you so much for letting us "In." For starters the obvious, we don't often get a chance to be up close with not only how you approach a tune, but some of the inside baseball regarding the tune itself. More importantly, with all that is going on now, all of our social circles have gotten much smaller, some to a point of a standstill. Everyday, I look forward from hearing from my new friend Lee. I get to learn some things about bass playing, some things about making music in general, and especially some things about life. Definitely a bright spot in my day!

[@stratovani]

Amen, brother!

[@asher1508]

Golden touch !!!

[@andalf_der_graue]

This man is a treasure and we should enjoy him as long as possible.

[@MelissaThompson432]

"My new friend Lee," is so accurate....

[@rocastafunk6598]

"I hope I remember the song" *nails every freaking note and drops some killin fills

[@andalf_der_graue1714]

He made one little mistake at 6:27. You can see he is not sure for a moment but I love that he doesn't edit his videos. That gives me the feeling it's ok to fuck up occasionally^^

[@brucedavis4636]

Leland’s really good @ that !

[@GKPLA]

One of my favorite bass lines ever. Could listen to it all day.

[@geespar1]

Beautifully fluid and melodic bass line, it doesn’t just complement the song, if lifts it

[@Gherson069]

"I Wish It Would Rain Down" has got a cool bassline. *wink wink*

[@WimRijksen]

It does, on the record it was played by Pino Palladino on his fretless Music Man bass, but the video featured Lee on an upright bass, so it would certainly be interesting to see Lee play it on his Dingwall.

[@she_sings_delightful_things]

Ohhhhh yeah!!!!

[@HrSamstag]

Gherson069 Yesss! ! ! 👉👍👈

[@alexandresuyama4884]

Beautiful!!!!

[@MelissaThompson432]

Pino had/has a similar sound, a similar hand, if I recall correctly.

[@tylerclark1801]

The Tarzan sound track is probably some of my favorite work from Phil Collins. Under appreciated IMO

[@davidmarais1048]

Like an eagle soaring... the grace and sweetness of those bass lines. Amazing.

[@lucianodossantosmanganelli1962]

DEAR LELAND, I'M BRAZILIAN, AND IT'S AN HONOR TO BE SUBSCRIBED TO YOUR CHANNEL, EMOTION AND JOY, I FEEL WATCHING YOUR VIDEOS, NEVER STOP PLAYING, FOR US WHO REALLY LOVE MUSIC, A BIG HUG!

[@ewawitkowska9736]

Beauttiful songs, beautiful bas, beautiful vocal Phil,'s Thank you ,super ❤❤❤❤

[@stevedrums1675]

First time I heard this song was the day my Mom was put into hospice. She died two days later and this song shall always be her song. I have never heard it without tearing up.

[@showbiz5776]

Going back through some of your "old" videos! Great!! Thanks for all you have done and continue to do!

[@verdean11]

I believe this soundtrack was what made me want to be a musician, it's my first memory of feeling something I couldn't explain while listening to music. Son of Man specifically, to this day it's still emotional to me, and I'm now in my early 20s, so I haven't listened to it in years. Thank you for this.

[@davecerv]

verdean613 Same here, I was in elementary school when the music of Tarzan captivated me. We watched that movie many times in school. I never knew it was Phil Collins until many years later. I found the CD at a shop last year and keep it in my car to jam hard to it.

[@gfloresm]

A friend passed away today, this song makes me even more emotional... thank you for sharing its beautiful and one of my favorites

[@tieukhavu8832]

🤗 Sorry for you - My condolence

[@StepOrDieFR]

so sad god glessed you conlolence

[@marcusnair4183]

Stay strong. God bless you

[@federalpi34]

Meus sentimentos 🇧🇷🙏

[@sammyvh11]

The only good thing about Covid is Lees videos.

[@CACA-fn4qx]

Indeed.😂😂

[@Hjaltland2]

Cool dude !

[@bertgetner9397]

You should go watch some of Tom Bukovac's.

[@petertaydus6330]

Please stop

[@MarcWeertsMusic]

Beautiful. When listening to these bass parts in isolation it always amazes me how melodic they are...

[@kuku68578]

You look amasing with that huge beard! God bless you and Phil Collins! I used to play base a bit. I love Phil so much! Tell Phill I love him too in Jesus name. Both be blessed guys. Love his songs so much.

[@Matt01x]

One of the most beautiful songs...

[@stephenbrown310]

Glad to watch these videos , through these difficult times 😀👍

[@gdnrecords]

I love your videos, see you play the music of my greatest IDOL, gives me joy and happines, see you and hear you tells me that I am listening to the real deal the genuine Phil collins Band please never stop playing together.

[@craiglewis6145]

I love the slide using the root and 10th. Very "Walk on the Wild side" and the great Herbie Flowers. I'm loving listening and watching you play. Proof that it's always possible to find a positive in crap situations. Thanks so much.

[@SergioGVasco]

It's maybe a bit weird to thank someone for making you cry but, thank you, sir. I'll never forget you.

[@maurodiaz4516]

BEAUTIFUL SONG, BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES OF THE YEAR 1999 ♥️

[@BenBartolome]

So simple yet so marked and elegant. Dear sir u have the groove and play beautiful. Thank you for this wonderful music

[@slashvox]

My favorite of Phil, and so beautiful bass lines, directo to my heart. I Can fell it!!!! You are one Mr. Sklar. Bless yu!

[@tuskedbeast]

What a pleasing bass style you have- perfect, really. Love the sliding chord. Grateful for what amount to some serious bass lessons (for us players), your continuing sharing of your kind-hearted energy, and your reminders of our gratitude to the people risking their health and lives for us. Thank you.

[@donmcbass]

My favourite Phil song!! Always loved that bass line! Thanks for showing us it

[@HardyPinto]

This bassline is so beautiful it makes me really emotional! Thanks Lee!

[@rogerquintanilla863]

Love watching Leland with his stories and hearing the ends and outs of music and his experiences. Thank you.

[@matheusteixeira2907]

he used to play with Phil Collins !! whatching this is a privilege ! thank you for this

[@robertreynolds2618]

I'm really digging these videos...thanks for posting.😎🥁🎸

[@jhonfrankortegalora4819]

Pienso que usted es el mejor. Gracias por el fantastico regalo de su ejecución.

[@JimFothergill]

Still one my fav Phil songs!

[@wicklowcourt6293]

THE best bass, the best stories! Loving the learning...thank you!

[@daviddeakin7414]

Cant beat a bit of Phil Collins. Nice bass! 👍

[@stevendavid5370]

Fantastic bass line to a great song.

[@anastaciacastro3293]

Very nice 👍👍...I love it so much...😘🙏🙏

[@ambntman4212]

That Bass is soooo SWEET! Thanks LS

[@CARDINAL701]

That's a really cool looking bass; love those colors. These videos absolutely make my day....really look forward to them every day!!!

[@daniellemartins1534]

Thank you for making my heart smile! What a lovely song!!!!

[@AlpanBass]

I am so happy to see you again ,God bless you Lee

[@adamfein4970]

I say this with the upmost respect for Leland Sklar, J.R.R. Token, and both men's fantastic work: Thank you for all that you've done and have shown me during these dark times. Thank you, Gandolf the Bassist!

[@alexandredartagnan1227]

Leland Sklar... he plays with great feeling the songs that were part of his career ... it is beautiful to see.

[@jefdamasceno8627]

Beautiful line for Bass. God bless you , Mr. Leland. And beautiful Bass

[@jpv9653]

I know I am repeating myself. But still. You are a genius. And such a kind soul. Thank you for all this.

[@jasonsanmoogan]

THANKS VERY MUCH FOR SHARING THESE WONDERFUL AND AMAZING PIECES WITH US. CAN'T GET ENOUGH . JUST STARTED TO PLAY THE BASS AND JUST SEEING AND LISTENING TO YOUR WORK REALLY GIVES THAT EXTRA MOTIVATION AND INSPIRES ME TO PUSH MORE TO BE BETTER. MUCH APPRECIATED. ONE LOVE FROM GUYANA SOUTH AMERICA.

[@mattdawg83686]

That is some mighty fine bass playing right there from a master.

[@maxmustermann1111]

this right there is the definition of perfection. Beginners play root note in beat. Advanced learn to do friggin anything and throw shit at the wall. Masters play just as much as needed. Those little fills are so much amazingly on point. enough to make it super exiting. Little enough to not annoy and keep the feeling of the rythm. amazing.

[@JLewisKellerWilliams]

Great stories from your tours and studio work! Keep em coming. And thank you!

[@zhpub]

So beautiful the way you play... Thank you for showing us that.

[@mitchellking2590]

This was such a treat. Thanks for your videos! It’s awesome to get to watch such a legend. Now I gotta go practice.

[@bobkamerbeek5964]

Love this man's compasion, his style, his talent!

[@jsantos1739]

Your form. The smoothness in every note. You, sir, must be the Avatar

[@markukeley2924]

Every day it's a master class. Thank you, Lee!

[@AlexandreTasca]

New video! The only good thing to watch on KZbin. I'll watch later to have something good to do tonight here in Brazil!

[@gustavotoledo8195]

Damn you’re so good! No kidding... I love the way you play!!!! Don’t ever stop sharing these videos!!!! Thank you so much!!!

[@autistazoeiro]

I never thought the bass melody was so cool! Good job man!

[@lucasgarcia1146]

It's just impossible not to love this man. I'm so grateful for these videos Mr. Sklar!

[@jaimeprieto2354]

Is there a “LOVE” button?!? Thank you for making these beautiful bass lines for all of us to learn from!

[@svenneudecker]

Love that you do those very helpful videos. Thanks a lot

[@JMc_1]

You give the song it’s soul. Love it.

[@acimbobby]

what a bass, never seen a bass with three pickups close together like that. Powerful beastie I bet. Phil's voice cuts through every mix, more so than Gabriels, even as you can hear.

[@jarimarkkanen6383]

Oh Lee ! You are beautiful human being. Telling stories and playing music you take as away from our daily troubles puting smiles on our faces. Take care and stay safe Lee, and others out there too

[@derekjones4253]

Thanks again Lee. Sharing your wealth of knowledge and playing everyday has become a daily dose of calm and wisdom for me. Your words are comforting in a time of uncertainty and I for one am very grateful to you. I wish you much love and joy. Be well.

[@extropian506]

Beautiful bass cover to a beautiful song. Cheers.

[@marekvodicka]

Love those basslines. So heart-warming.

[@MrBoris7910]

That's a beautiful song! Thanks Lee.

[@Perspectemony]

Thank you for your ideas, and this one is sort of a me as a bassist to my friend as a drummer that got me into music, one of the songs that remind us as musicians and as brothers from another mother we have to stick together no matter what. Thank you! Have a day!

[@FirthofFourth]

Greetings Lee. Love these videos! “Spectrum” - yesterday was my Billy Cobham day. Driving up thru the Berkshires! I bought that album upon its release in 73! Just incredible! Hope this finds you well!

[@LucasTorres-fz9ix]

Thank you for this wonderful job! You are amazing!

[@Samantha-vlly]

I was only introduced to the tracks themselves and didn't watch this movie. I feel whenever listening that it's his song

[@bradmartin9672]

I love the sound of that bass!

[@garrettdavid5275]

That bass line is very moving. I love it. ❤❤❤

[@phila8234]

Absolutely beautiful! That tone is gorgeous!

[@michaelgaleazzi4669]

Thanks Leland. Your playing, stories and thoughts are a great comfort in these times. Big cyber hugs from Down Under.

[@adrianofarias2037]

Master Leland, I'm a fan of your work. I learned a lot from you.👏👏👏👍🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

[@Wurstkiste]

Every note has its place. Great work, thanks.

[@JimFothergill]

Love this song just magic! Cool axe!

[@dave1135]

As far as I'm concerned, Leland, you can do all of the songs you've done with Phill, between your awesome bass playing and Phill's fantastic vocals, you two make his music the awesome thing it is

[@MarcoAntonio-ee7oj]

Adoro Phil Collins e sempre admirei o seu talento tocando baixo nas fitas dos Shows. É um prazer enorme assitir seus videos, Leland. .

Mestre, que lindo som e a estética desse baixo. Honra em assistir o senhor. Abraço! Rio de Janeiro, Brasil.

[@federalpi34]

Campinas São Paulo Brazil

[@kgdrummerboy]

That song was released during the happiest time in my life. Listening to it, the first verse, going into the chorus gave me goosebumps, and made me a little teary-eyed.I love the song, And Leland is the best!! Thank-you Mr. Sklar!

[@grahamhowe9413]

Hi Leland, I started watching your amazing posts three days ago,I put my Tele bass away many years ago and swore I was done with it, after the death of a dear friend and longtime bandmate.I just lost the heart for it. Today I got my bass out of the closet and cleaned it up.Thank you and God bless

[@paulhocking1252]

Obviously inspired by a master and a truly nice guy

[@BassMecca312]

Thats powerful bruh. The power of music.

[@MARCO-sr9vv]

It’s a pleasure to see you posting videos on KZbin, Leland. The music that you’ve had a part in sharing with all of us with Phil Collins holds a special place in all of our hearts and memories. Thank you

[@davimadrilena401]

Um dos melhores baixistas de todos os tempos, sou fã do leland sklar.

[@federalpi34]

Cara tô aprendendo baixo há um mês e minha primeira música completa foi onde more Night perdi as contas que fiz o acompanhamento dela a linha de baixo dela tbm é muito especial emocionante agora tô aprendendo as demais

[@Shane4Bass]

Good advise on staying safe. Good on you, and thanks for keeping us entertained during these times!

[@wfjjfw4214]

Thanks again Lee, 1 month into the lockdown here in Scotland and I look forward to receiving the notification of a new video everyday , love it🖕

[@williampamblanco]

Thank you for making this channel, sir. I heard this song a lot as a kid and want to learn it the right way :) take care, deeply appreciate these videos.

[@paule.7117]

Absolutely beautiful! The essence of bass playing for me. Thanks Lee, you are great!

[@canadianmousefanatik2047]

You're bass lines are awesome! Love listening to you playing Phil!!

[@veryhairylarry1036]

nice. this song has always and will always move me to tears. only song on earth that does it to me. lol

[@MrWolfmuc]

I found the announcement for your KZbin channel in the German guitar & bass magazin. I enjoy your posts very much. Thanks for sharing your storrys and a lot of songs from Phil Collins are soundtracks of my life. 😍

[@darrenapple2200]

Those passing notes are nothing short of Genius!!! I absolutely love your playing and never rush a note. Just laying it down as good as humanly possibe. Also a lot of amateur players could learn how important it is to lay it back and not rush or play on top by watching these video's. Blessings Brother!!!!

[@TheGreatConstantini]

My wife and I watched “The wrecking crew” doc last night after you mentioned it. It was really wonderful. Can’t wait for the documentary on the family

[@rafaelsousa1930]

A real double bass lesson! Thank you Leland!

[@BassAdvisor]

So simple, so beautiful. I love that bass INTO the song.

[@Manuca67]

Thank you so much for sharing your music with us
