46 & 2 (Tool) O'Keefe Music Foundation - Kel-n-Rich's First Reaction

[@evilmeatloaf9994]

Loving the kid on the drums so much. May I say, don't hold back wreck that shit man.

[@michaelmorgan7385]

That young man became a legend among his peers with this performance. The dedication and talent required to reach that level at that age fosters the kind of confidence and self security that I wish I knew existed at that age. Rock on young man.

[@escaleraalcielo6990]

Yes they do Pull Me Under cover by Dream Theater. Excellent. Same little girl.

[@a7i20ci7y]

Big song for a little girl. Kala is amazing.

[@nickkitchens6974]

Good call.

[@smileystevens3060]

Yes I've seen that one the kid's play the hell out of it.....and your right the Kala Scarpinksi singing is outstanding....:)

[@Keith_KC8TCQ]

they also do a kick ass version of Tool's Sober with Kala singing AND playing guitar. She has her own band now called Saving Escape.

[@saturnracer156]

The girl singing (Kala Rose) in this video is now fronting a young band called Saving Escape. They are fantastic. You should check them out sometime.

[@ReligionOfSacrifice]

@@seelenwinter6662, this girl, Kala Rose, did a couple things very right in her voice to convey the song better than the original band if you ask me. 46 and 2 is about the genetic code that reveals we are just a chromosomal fusion away from being a part of the ape kingdom and yet the belief is that the next movement will go into supposedly a better iteration than what we are now. Thus there is a aspect of the lesser within and the better to come... I don't know about you, but her voice carried the emotion of the song better than the original band. I listened to her cover of "Pull me Under" and was completely unimpressed, but hearing the song "Revelation" by her band Saving Escape (doubt me and listen to the acoustic version) and she reveals that ability to move from style to style or feel to feel within the same song, just as she did here. She is worth keeping tabs on for sure.

[@nitrodad5775]

@@ReligionOfSacrifice I agree, I like OMF version of the song much more. 👍

[@nameit3635]

OMG! that was amazing, those kids are out of this world.

[@helzapoppin9810]

I first saw this shortly after it first came out. That bassist and drummer just KILLED it. And the kid on the wood blocks is an unsung hero.

[@RugNug]

Look at her smile! That's the moment she knows that she freaking NAILED it!!!

[@joejarvis2793]

The fact that Tool is known to be a technically proficient band of the highest caliber, and these kids didn't just cover this they nailed it. This is one of my litmus videos for reaction channels. I am sorry for the loss of your son. I love the obvious passion that you have for music and have chosen this method to remain connected to the love your son had for music.

[@marcygambino1975]

Rythm-Section is incredible ... they actually LOOKING at each other. Adore this Version for about 4 years now ... dont gets old

[@reneeallen3569]

I have BEGGED every reaction channel to do this! I actually prefer this version now. I have been watching these kids for over 5 years now. Watch their Sober cover. Their No More Tears is KILLER!!!

[@rmcdaniel423]

6:36 - 6:47 " Yeah . . . look at that smile!" Yup. Every time I watch this, that badass little snarl of a smile she gets catches me "in the feels", as the kids say.

[@FrankB_1737]

Hey guys🙋🏽‍♂️ My second comment on this vid. From watching how passionate and excited Kel can get on some of the vidz I've watched I knew immediately when I saw that you were doing a reaction video for the O'Keefe Music Foundation's cover of 46 & 2 that you both would absolutely love it and that it would generate some intense emotions from you both. The fact that these kids perform not just some cookie cutter old school rock songs but some seriously complicated and intricate progressive hard rock songs that musicians many years their senior can't come close to doing speaks volumes about the mentorship that goes on at OMF. 🌴🌞🌴

[@poncholarpez6233]

Yay!!! You did it! This version made me decide to pick up the guitar after decades of wanting too. So inspiring!

[@infreedomitrust1667]

Thank so much for reacting to this song. this is my favorite version by far.

[@baejiaoflying9434]

Those kids are fantastic. Some are probably adults now, since it was recorded in 2013, but wow. So much talent and enthusiasm for what they're playing. Love the drummer's facial expressions. They all nailed their parts didn't they.

[@staceyhensley91]

This is amazing! I've been mesmerized since I first saw a video several months ago. Loved by the sun tangerine dream.

[@ingobordewick6480]

What I really love about this, they not only did a cover of it, they also gave it their own twist. Great job!

[@escaleraalcielo6990]

When you do Sober a girl on drums and the lead singer also plays guitar

[@coltmagnus6572]

These kids are sooooo good.

[@aliciaencaderada1361]

They also do a Dream Theater cover that many claim Is better than the original. At this point we have 5 down votes on this. These are the people who took time off from torturing ants to view this. Wish it showed who this is? What is so wrong with someone's life they voted this down.

[@poncholarpez6233]

That cover is soooooooo good!

[@amorodioamor4388]

Alicia Encaderada. Yes I have seen lots of people who like the cover version more. Although you and I aren't making such a claim. I have seen people say that.

[@amorodioamor4388]

The idea of a cover is to do it different than the original. Maybe faster or slower etc. To simply try and do it the same your not bringing anything new. You might add parts or take some out. I think the kids did that.

[@escaleraalcielo6990]

Exactly. A cover is intended to be different not the same. Not note for note. It might be an acoustic version. It might be an acoustic song changed electric. It might be in a lower voice or a higher voice. Such as disturbed doing sound silence. Or Van Halen playing girl you really got me in with new style. No matter what you will find people who prefer one version over another. Although there none said it was better but rather that some prefer the cover.

[@jonfernandez4271]

That's an amazing cover.

[@RCullis47]

I've been a fan of the kids of the Academy for a while. I'm glad someone is getting around to reacting to them. They also do great covers of Dream Theater, Led Zeppelin, Pantera, Iron Maiden, and others. These kids are awesome.

[@derekcurrent6353]

I discovered those kids covering that song a couple of years ago. I watched with my mouth hanging open; I was completely blown away by the talent in that video. That drummer is unbelievable. I feel like rock is starting to make a comeback with some new young bands. Here are a couple of bands that I think you’ll really like: Greta Van Fleet Tyler Bryant and the Shakedown Both of those bands are killing it in the rock&roll arena, so please check them out! Love and peace to you both! 💟☮️

It's truly inspiring, the bassist playing inversions and the drummer playing counterpoint, clever for seasoned jazz musicians, I'm guessing they haven't been performing for thirty or forty years...

[@mitchelperkins6723]

They are all VERY talented. Kala Scarpinski is an amazing singer, and has matured into a fine artist. Now you need to see them do Pull Me Under

[@motorcitymaniac167]

I think her name is Kala Rose. (O'Keefs) she also does Pull Me Under by Dream Theater which I actually liked better than the original. ✌😎💜

O'Keefe MA is prolific. love the GnR cover of "you should be mine"!

[@samhouston1979]

The highlight of the vid is that drummer wailing on that cymbal 😂🤘

[@TheSpydyr]

The singer is Kala Scarpinski and she goes by Kala Rose. She was 11 during this video and has since learned to play guitar and developed her singing a lot! She has her own band now and a KZbin channel as well. She later did a cover of Tool's Sober with some other kids at 16 and plays guitar and sings in that one. She is a very talented young star who has stated the Lzzy Hale is one of her idols.

[@FrankB_1737]

Hey guys🙋🏽‍♂️ I actually prefer this cover by OMF (O'Keefe Music Foundation) to Tool's original version which I don't believe I can say about any other song. The young girl who so superbly handles the vocals is Kala Rose who now has her own band comprised of all OMF grads, the name of her band is "SAVING ESCAPE" and is absolutely phenomenal, they just recently dropped their first album. The music of SAVING ESCAPE is an amalgamation of old school hard rock, mellow rock with more than a hint of psychedelia thrown in for good measure, I really think you both would dig it. When you both have some extra time(😂) you should really check out OMF's complete library of superbly done cover songs of some of the more complex/progressive bands...sometimes doing a large amount of songs by the same artist/band. I don't really understand the whole hashtag thing but will try in the future to comply with your requirement of using a # when requesting a song. The song I'm talking about is also from OMF and also a Tool song called "The Pot". OMF does 4 or 5 versions of The Pot all completely different from each other, the one I'm referring to is "The Pot version #1" sung by another young girl by the name of Anna. 💥💥I do realize that I can get long winded in my comments so at anytime either one of you feel it's becoming a problem please tell me. I can get pretty passionate when it comes to talking about music. Music brought my wife and I together and was a main component of our relationship and even after losing her (and our unborn daughter) years ago I feel that the music still keeps us connected (I know it sounds crazy) so that's why I can sometimes get long winded, it's more like I'm having a conversation rather than just leaving a comment.💥💥
