Boys of Summer | Live Band performance (Don Henley) | Sing It Live

[@sarac.3259]

This is FABULOUS! Superb musicianship and production, as always - every note perfection. 💕 Having to use my imagination a little in the UK, as our summer is still some way off! 😎🧣🧤😂

[@electronash]

Yeah, we're still in the "only just left Mordor" stage atm. lol

[@MusicisMedicine-r6z]

Deep into summer here in the US and I LOVE this cover. So well done, and a wonderfully bold choice given the song's writer! This has as a hypnotic quality such that I didn't want it to end. Thanks guys!

[@kissyboots59831]

People went nuts over the Sound of Silence when Disturbed did it. Most had no idea it was done before, so no. I'm not surprised by likes and comments. They hold no value.

[@jjinglenuts]

This song reminds me of 1 of my best friend , he passed away years back . This was his favorite song, God bless his soul.

[@uriasj68]

May he be resting in peace!

[@murraychadwick9362]

He's patiently waiting for you and waiting for the day you two can reunite a priceless friendship with nothing but good times and great music again

[@murraychadwick9362]

He's patiently waiting to reunite with you again to pick up where you two left off. Only this time your time spent together can be as long as you like. Remember the saying "It's not Goodbye". It's "See you later". 😊

[@Dragotto1]

God bless you for remembering him, im sure he sees it. Your a good friend

[@jwhaley616]

One of my all-time favorite songs!! Wow, excellent cover band!!!

[@brandonklosky8200]

No better time to be alive than the 80’s and it’s not even close!

[@rikardo1070]

damn ! the guitar is SO spot on !!!!!!!!

[@Shaunholton]

Cam Blokland 🙌

[@GooGoo007]

Cam's guitar playing is beyond perfect. He feels every note being played and delivers it with great passion and beautiful musicality!

[@andydinesguitar]

Yup, he absolutely nailed the tone and feel of this one🤟

[@adam872]

Yep, absolutely on point isn't it

[@NZFly101]

this 10000% loved his tone, and notes were spot on

[@fitzthecat]

I think the outro so simple as it is is one of the greatest in rock history.🎉

[@microchip9303]

First thing I do when I see a SINGIT song come up is grab the head phones. Your band nails it every time, Thanks to you all. I just LOVIT.

[@peterkleinveld9705]

Yes one of my favourite songs from Don Henley. Spot on Gents!!

[@thomascozart1095]

It really is spot on

[@reidflemingworldstoughestm1394]

Written by one of Tom Petty's guitarists, Mike Campbell... so glad Petty passed on it.

[@stevedudley831]

@@reidflemingworldstoughestm1394 to be fair Campbell developed the song on his drum machine and had it at music track stage...Don Henley penned the lyrics...a brilliant collaboration I'd say.

[@nettudky1]

OMG! I'm speechless.

[@troyboy7610]

Just so you guys know, this is the best song you have recorded to date.

[@Xpyburnt_ndz]

Damien SMOKIN it on the fretless!!! 😃🤩

[@Ciclopea2]

I love that there's so much precision and musicianship and you still can tell there's no autotune or even pitch correction, just sheer talent 👏

[@mtlnascarfan]

What a beautiful remake of an 80's classic. Mr. Henley would be so proud. Respect and admiration from Montreal, Canada❤

[@ruslan5313]

This cover was released back in 2023, but Don Henley filed a complaint about this video and had to be removed from the channel. Now it has appeared again. Probably the financial issue has been resolved.

[@mtlnascarfan]

@@ruslan5313 I''m disappointed that Don would file a complaint for such a beautiful reproduction of a cherished song. If anything he should be proud that the song is being shared to millions more people who would otherwise not be exposed to it.

[@joanniegady1628]

Ya, Don's not playing this on repeat 😏

[@danw2112]

​@@mtlnascarfan Henley hated The Atari's cover of the song and talked bad about that band and he is trying his hardest to take this version down, so it shows what kind of guy he is.

[@camgibb1065]

I've been a Don Henley and the eagles fan since a school mate gave me his hotel California album on 12" vinyl back in 1977. I've seen the eagles 3 times over the years once at Wembley in 96, once at Twickenham in 06 , and again in the BIA in 09 . Don Henley is a huge talent and god bless him for the joy his and his fellow eagle members have given us over 50+ years, but if he doesn't like this wonderful rendition of his own classic then I hope not, surely he would be happy to endorse fellow talented musicianship and passion to bring it to the millions watching this extraordinary group of talented people ❤

[@glennSuperdude]

We need more fretless bass in the world! Rock on boys!

[@cmbind55]

"Those days are gone forever. I should just let 'em go. But..." ❤‍🔥❤‍🔥 One of the greatest songs of all time.❤‍🔥

[@reidflemingworldstoughestm1394]

4:20 That bass fill ...oh yeah

[@jensz9360]

Yeah, its insane how its subtle , but lends to the mood and feeling of the song. The band nailed it!

[@gcsoulsurfer5660]

I love this song. And these guys nailed it. Best version I've ever heard.

[@jensz9360]

Same...never heard a better one, they really got all the elements right!

[@markmacisaac4505]

_"a deadhead sticker on a cadillac"_ Timeless! The incomparable Don Henley! Nice job, Boyz!!

[@Prof_Jeff]

Yes, Henley is a master lyricist. I've heard Don Felder talk about his time with the Eagles and how amazing Henley was with lyrics. He (Felder) was in awe almost constantly.

[@jbrownphd1]

Did Sing it Live crank it? Of course you did. Awesome

[@seanhennessey5945]

Great cover...

[@deborahhillegass4367]

What a great rendition of an amazing song! Had to listen twice….

[@daveanderson9295]

Shakin my head once again Darren. You nailed one of my favorite songs! Sing it Live just has this unique 'spirit' about the way you present a tune; respect, humility, excellence, fun, cooperation, unity, and supreme fidelity to the original. Love you all and love your music!!!

[@ronlucock3702]

Some people (me) like to look at aeroplanes, while some are lucky enough to fly them. Some people (me) like to listen to good 80's music, while guys like you recreate it & make it come alive all over again. Now I'm the one who's lucky enough to appreciate & enjoy it. Well done boys.

Got to hear Don sing this in November of last year when I saw The Eagles in Lexington at Rupp Arena. Certainly brings back great 80s memories. Well done all. Glad to see you were able to release this on your channel. Mr. Henley is notorious for blocking his work, solo or in The Eagles.

Great song, great rendition! Bravo!!!! Keep singing the GREATEST MUSICAL ERA OF ALL TIME, THE 80'S!!!!

[@murraychadwick9362]

There will never be music better than the 80's 😎. I was fortunate to have graduated in 1980. I had just turned into an adult and was now free to get into the night clubs. I will never forget this music pumping through the speakers, colorful lights, dancing our hearts out 😂

Props to the drummer for keeping this hellish groove, not easy to reproduce what was played by a programmed LinnDrum!

[@alexanderlehner1849]

Being a drummer trying it to play this song: Yes, it's hellish difficult. The song belongs to those "easy listening" ones - until you try to play it yourself.

[@VillageTechnologies]

I was thinking the same thing. I was trying to figure out the bass drum pattern. He sounds great.
