Perfect Music Sucess Excellent Guitarrist

[@mpoirier2323]

I see what you mean, totally can't unhear it now...

[@outofworkactor3033]

Wow, just wow. Amazing playing, also highlights the sheer musicality of this song.

[@stefanopitisci8131]

You're the best cover guitarist on youtube. That is a fact! Salute from Italy 🇮🇹

[@bwm5150]

Very kind, thanks from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@ericschrdr]

Finally someone who nailed the small guitar licks - perfect, and thanks!

[@Jorgestrat]

Absolutely the best guitar player in all YT !!! It is not just the perfect notes and the great covers, it is the feel and great tone work too.. Cheers from México city!!!

[@bwm5150]

Very kind, thanks from Scotland

[@Cpt_Adama]

Yep, he could easily play with the real band and fit right in. He has a PHD in Leppard. Call him Dr. Leppard 😎

[@metalrockstarizer89]

Him and Ichita Niko = awesomeness

[@adistradlin]

very agree !!!

[@julianstefanache1693]

you just made that song sound better man! thank you for existing

[@diegoana1230]

You finally played this song, I was waiting for it, and you played it like I imagined you would. I'm 50 and that the sound of this song marked a milestone, a model, a standart. Breakfast Club !!!

[@U-rok]

Once again, brilliantly done.

[@railfanjames2368]

Dude… what the duck, that was the coolest thing I’ve ever seen done

[@rugdnit911]

Love your spin on old 80’s tunes. Truly was a great era for music

[@johnjones-bv5df]

As close to perfect as one could possibly get. Keep em coming please.

[@pllndch]

Love that little laugh from the error from the beginning. Still, you nailed it from start to finish! The new touch of Leppard guitar to a timeless classic is just what all of us needed! Cheers!

[@gabrieljohannson6777]

Loved it. A master class in restraint that shows how that 'restraint' can make a song really pop & sound better. Respect from Australia🇦🇺.

[@bwm5150]

Thanks from Scotland 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

[@TheRetroManRandySavage]

Fantastic! I only watched breakfast club last week. This has to be one of the most 80s sounding songs ever. I love it when you put a leppard esq twist on a song. Well done.🙏🏻👊

[@markjohnston6080]

I don't even know how I found you, but I could watch and listen all day. 👍🤘❤

[@tomterry8275]

this is criminally good. well done.

[@RodrigoRockChannel]

Hahaha.. loved that you kept the mistake at the begining. Amazing cover and tone, well done!

[@TrebleForTheBass]

Seen this movie over 100 times and SM is one of my favs (I'm a keyboardist and singwriter /arranger). Charlie would be proud

[@kenlanier2131]

Dude is there anything you cant play!!! Amazing!

[@davidthompson3136]

Aaah, a great little Scottish band! And one in my music collection. I have been enjoying their recordings since the ‘80’s. Nice job again, Ben. Thanks for posting. 😎👍🇳🇿🍺🍺🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🎸

[@rocketman1773]

Gotta love the mighty Leppard!! Awesome version!! 🎸🎸🎸

[@gordondodds5537]

Have to give a shout out to Charlie Burchill, some great riffs over the years !

[@robinstevens9189]

Hahaha! Love the "intro" blooper. Great Leppardization!

[@thelmalynch7109]

I just love how you bring these songs to life Ben 🎸🎧 awesome job once again👍 stay safe and please keep them coming your journey fan always 🌹

[@2HellWUtube]

hahahaha so cool that you left that blooper part in the beginning :)

[@ThisSoundsGood100]

You definitively Leppardized this!

[@misadventuresofaronski]

Awesome …….. BUT some new Super Monaco would be friggin awesome. I listen to that stuff all the time. Keep up the great work.

[@bwm5150]

Thanks! Somewhere down the line.

[@lisbonrocknroll]

That solo was so tasteful! Pure 80s! Pure enjoyment as always! Keep rocking man! 🤟🔥

[@500erider]

Brother, it is always such a pleasure to watch you play. Thanks so much. I understand the work that goes into this. It's excellent.

[@stacyelder6835]

That sounds 1000 times better than the original !!

[@MultiLork]

I always thought the original song missed some strong background, this is exactly it ! Awesome result !!

[@whaguitars]

Great Video Ben I love that you added the false start at the beginning!

[@reneewoolery3755]

🤘👍Always so Amazing, & love your song selections!!💕

[@bwm5150]

Thanks Renee

[@thewab1974]

0:30 - Me: "Holy shit! Wait, does this song even HAVE all of those notes?" [listens to original song] Me: "Holy shit, it really DOES! How the hell have I never noticed that before?"

[@bwm5150]

Haha, there are some parts I've added here but sometimes on my Leppardized songs, I'm just bringing out stuff that's already there underneath.

[@reneewoolery3755]

😀🤘love watching you!! So talented!!😉🙏

[@leRoi10]

You totally nailed again Ben ! Amazing guitar work right here, love it.

[@PittPenguin]

Your version at 2:14 to 2.48 gives me goosebumps 👌🏼 and 3:30 on this section, if you hear the original played live - they missed a trick by leaving this ‘empty’ of anything like how you’ve filled it in beautifully. Been following you for so long now, and you’re such a great player. Keep up the great work Ben 🙏

[@bwm5150]

Ah, you're very kind! Thanks!

[@BRBifyouplease]

Fantastic job, my friend! Your Leppardized take on this classic is faithful to the spirit of the original, yet you've interpreted your own parts on it. Even though you're a great lead player, I enjoy your rhythm parts the most!

[@ValHemi265]

Brilliant. in the pocket dude. Nice tone and timing. I feels that. 😏👌

[@Xerjoff87]

Brutal as always. You have a very characteristic way to play, love it. Great job.

[@5olas]

Excellent cover from my favorite band from the 80s. Their album, "Sparkle in the Rain" is extraordinary. I highly recommend it.

[@godhell8039]

👏👏👏🙌 “The Breakfast Club”😍 When movies had a plot and not just special effects ...

[@969bamf]

These were more civilized times

[@Chino196]

Crap I missed this one, omg that was amazing how good that was! every time that song plays i’m going to hear those extra guitar parts, now the original sounds empty! Lol

[@MrCarl5150]

YESSSSSSSS! Well done! 🍻 The Breakfast Club classic...might be cheesy but I love the 80s movies and their soundtracks! 👍💪🤘🤘🤘(I got you for 🤘months!)

[@eravelo]

Hysterical!

[@brysonboehl6590]

Awesome stuff! Would love to see you Leppardize a Berlin tune. They're earlier stuff may already be a bit leppardized :)

[@cookiemonsterdayz]

Big like. I always liked that song. You put the cherry on the cake.... Really good stuff mate.

[@DreidMusicalX]

Love this guitar of yours.

[@Mujcanal]

As always, great work !

[@ptmunro]

This is fabulous. Thanks so much!

[@samuski36]

Wow...just, Wow!

[@BernieTheBoxer]

Oh man! Leppardization hits a new high...

[@chrismitchell446]

GREAT interpretation of this iconic 80’s song!! Well done!

[@MegaBadseed]

Incredible

[@cal79]

[@gypsycyn]

Well placed and great sounding accompaniment! It paired perfectly!

[@handyallaround5776]

[@mowieboy]

Very cool interpretation. Bueno

[@mygt8a4re]

Nice Job man, love the "leppardized" guitar work. Entertaining. Love all your vids really, your covers are killer🤘

[@Joe-dz7kj]

Good grief brother! That was spectacular 👊🏼

[@maisaltyleftnut8138]

So good. The tone sounds edible

[@codywatts7625]

This is so bad ass man awesome love it brother ❤🤘🎸

[@valeriorossi2664]

That was insane! I see a love for Def Leppard in there too

[@bwm5150]

Thanks! My Leppardized Cover series is a way for me to add guitar parts, in the style of Def Leppard, to pop tracks which have little to no guitar in them.

[@valeriorossi2664]

Ha! I just reread the title of the video, 😂​@@bwm5150

[@gawainemellors]

Top work, as always....

[@eddamoo]

Amazing cover! Love it from a big DL fan! Love the way you left in the duff opening note!! :D

[@elprofedebiolo]

[@RyderWestwood]

This is brilliant!

[@beckyboop2244]
