Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood [ENGLISH Cover] - Period (FULL OP) - Caleb Hyles

[@CalebHyles]

Creator's Note: This was one of the first covers I did that felt like a "vocal performance", so to speak. Not to mention, around this time I was operating on karaoke tracks and recording where ever I could find a spot, no matter the soundproofing lol. When remastering this track, and commissioning the instrumental, I wanted to remain true to this 'period of life' (pun intended) and make the whole cover feel more "performance" oriented (i.e. MIDI instrumental, lack of harmonies/backing vocals, etc.). I hope you'll see this cover as an example of what you can do with very little ♥ Thank y'all as always, and I love you HylesHypeCrew :)

[@davidgrant761]

keep up the good work man love 99% of the stuff you cover

When you struggle and then succeed, the feeling of happiness that you recive is worth every setback and feeling of failure. Keep up the good work and keep fighting for that happiness.

kickass song! any chance you'll do golden time lover? I love that song to death

[@knockedpluto_258]

For everyone who wanted to have the lyrics :) LYRICS: When we, were ready to just give in, staring down at a seemingly endless path. When we stopped, all we could do was, take a deep breath. The victory was within our reach when, it suddenly slipped away, Now there's nothing, that's left for us to lose, and nothing can stand in our way! These strong bonds that tie our hearts, They will never break apart. With our bonds we'll make it through right from the start. and together we will fight, with victory not far from sight. I won't stop or hide, where the period lies. The warmth, coursing within my being, Is a memory that I will keep seeing. I'll hold onto these memories, they won't leave me. The promise that I made, I'll fulfill, bring you with me, One day we'll be whole, once again. All our dreams, (all our dreams) Are embraced, (are embraced) I will write a song someday! Don't avert your eyes from me, keep your eyes on reality, With the courage and the strength we'll succeed, With the strength that you give me, my tired lungs can finally breath, Running side by side, hand in hand with destiny! Look at the path that lies ahead. It's a big sparkling world! This great roar that shakes in me, Breaks the silence of my dreams, I will not betray the cheers that I forsee Through the pain we will survive, Gain the strength to stay alive, Fighting for the day, in this period. At our fingertips, the truth that lies ahead!

So damned smooth, it's ridiculous. You should honestly be the official English cover. I would actually love to hear your voice in some sort of anime. If Jaden Smith can get one, you definitely can, and yours would be of the utmost quality. Im part of the #notifsquad, and we HEAR you!

[@kygno1543]

Jade Silver wait.... jaden smith is in an anime?

[@Adorabun]

Sure, he's in 新鮮な王子の息子 (Shinsen'na ōji no musuko)

[@Adorabun]

@Black Star I cant remember if I wrote that as a joke or what at the time..I googled something...anyways thats "the happy prince."...I think.

[@Adorabun]

@Black Star In actuality he was in an anime called neo yokio, pretty sure I sent the Japanese to mess with people a year ago...

[@foxlover6770]

Dr. Jade Silver I mean it is not technically an anime, but he did manage to get in RWBY which is very close

[@pandaqueenplays]

Honestly, every cover you do I can see and hear you growing not only as an entertainer but a performer. I liked the parallel in filming in your room like your old covers but the quality of your performance is the you thats come so far and has over 700k subscribers. So proud of you. I really really liked this cover. So proud of you

[@CalebHyles]

[@feqbrony8989]

Just when you think Caleb Hyles has no songs left to listen to, Caleb: *Greetings, I’m back!*

[@Zelith]

Yes! I was so sad when I couldn't listen to this in a while. So glad it's back up! Favorite version of Period!

[@meandmyinsanity]

Please do "Hologram" for your next FMA:B cover! Your voice would be perfect and nobody ever covers it!

[@ooyoobbangjib]

seconding this!!

[@terragang4443]

Agreed

[@PyroBirdChris]

Yes!

[@Jetstar-97]

I am in the middle of a Fullmetal Alchemist phase. I started the first Fullmetal Alchemist show at the beginning of February, finished it, watched Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, and finished that, all by the end of February. The love for the shows has not worn off. Please continue the theme songs covers with your incredible voice! I applaud you!

[@duckynoodles3560]

1:25 Nice job making that cough look like a little dab 👍

[@myabray1977]

Dude, i like your attitude you have when you make your videos. You make it seem like you were the one who made it. Your just amazing in your covers, you have my full support

[@p.a.4512]

I like the old version more, only because that one had the "wow" vocals in the background that made it 100% more epic anyway seeing how recently you made both "rewrite" and "again", can we expect "Golden time lover" and "rain" soon? pretty please???????

[@tonjolley6422]

Fingers crossed we just get more FMA;B covers.

[@dankerbell]

yeah plus it's louder and has more power

[@MikeTheAnimeRunnerX2]

This was definitely the cover that made me a fan of yours, so I'm absolutely ecstatic that it's back up. Freaking amazing job. Also, shoutout to Morgan Berry for those spellbinding lyrics.

[@Mohamad909]

You smashed my first impression the moment you sang. Impressive.

[@Spiritofthehero16]

If I'm being real, every time I see one of your videos of something I love, I don't watch it in fear that it's gonna be cringy and possibly ruin whatever it is Iove. And when I finally do watch it I'm always proven wrong, you blow your performances out of the water and I know it's an unfair assumption and I'm sorry. You prove my fears wrong every time though, and I hope you keep doing that. You are amazing.

[@crepuscule7721]

“This great roar that shakes in me breaks the silence of my dreams” DAMN that would make a sick tattoo. POETRY

[@dimebagdarrellfan8205]

My dad and I used to watch full metal alchemist brotherhood a lot before he passed away and I this was always our favorite song. It makes me so emotional when I hear the chorus this English version is so motivating and powerful thank you my friend this is an amazing cover 🤘

[@xSammySelenophene]

I ended up here on a weird tangent trying to remember a metal band (then I got here trying to find a cover for the english cover for the one I remember hearing a long time ago). I recognised your name from some other covers I listen to of yours on Spotify already for My Hero Academia. Love your voice!

[@marchedbus9882]

This anime, the song, and your cover was my biggest inspiration growing up. Now in my practical, I always look back here and smile. Thanks for this amazing cover.

[@brannonpittman6905]

A couple months back I looked for your cover and was dismayed when I found out what Sony did. Sure, this may not have the same background music going on but I still got goosebumps the same level as the first time I listened to your original cover. Period is my favorite song from anime and you crushed it once again. God bless you

[@ariffmalik8540]

Man, your voice gave me chills the same with original singer. EXACT TONE. I Love your immersing the meaning of the lyrics.

[@Leoblackwolf]

Thanks for reuploading it Caleb!! I remember when I discovered your channel two years ago because of this cover. It's also nice that you kept the old video instead of making a new one.

[@ricardoherrera8863]

I saw the japanese version of the anime, so I began to look on the comments for what nimber of opening of the english version was this, I honestly havent realised it was an unofficial cover, really good job

[@artistlee7068]

Okay, literally Again and Period are my favourite FMAB openings and I love to see you doing covers of them! You're voice is wonderful and I can't get enough. I did Again for a talent show at school a couple years back and hearing this makes me think "Why not try learning Period as well"

[@Phridgidaire]

2:50 Awesome job with the key change!

[@ryann42]

I was just listening to "Again" earlier and was thinking how I'd love to hear you do a cover of this one, too. The comments have mentioned that you used to have a different version up but it got taken down, but I didn't hear it back then so it's all new to me. Great work, Caleb!

[@danstrikker6465]

Will always be my favorite FMAB OP and you did an amazing job with it

[@smileplease_91]

My favorite FMA song in all the shows and movies, and you did it beautifully. I am in love with your voice. I got chills around 2:44.

Ok, you know that it was a 100% absolute full success when you finally do that big finale note and the person watching can't hold back a HUGE victory cheer and fist-bump in the air. PERIOD. That, and the fact that I was grinning like a Cheshire Cat and rocking out to the song the entire way through of course, LOL! Seriously Caleb, EPIC cover and MASSIVE success!! You have fully exceeded our expectations and beyond! - "Don't avert your eyes from me," right? Well HOW CAN WE when you make that FREAKING IMPOSSIBLE because your videos and covers and songs are all way too EPIC and awesome and blindingly brilliant?!!😆😁😍😍😻🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟💖 Seriously though, well done! Thank you for doing a cover of this one. This and Golden Time Lover are my two favorite Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood opening themes so I'm thrilled that you did a cover of this. Thank you again! 😊

[@mateodurasin7905]

It still pumps me up like three years ago great cover

[@RandonPersom542]

Man does this bring me back! Reminds me of when I first found this channel. Watching you grow has been wonderful caleb, from the simple covers like this (with adorable end cards) that you used to do, to the bigger projects you do now with collabs and effects.Thank you for the remaster we can enjoy again and again, and thank you for providing some wonderful nostalgia recording it based around the performance.Stay awesome dude, peace love and metal!

[@akixyl425]

Oh my god that was amazing. You have come such a long way to be able to show us what you can do with only your tallent alone vs pulling out all of the stops. This song is honestly my favorite from FMAB and you have reached new heights with it. I love it. I do hope in the future that you might revisit it, for nostalgia's sake, adding in the backup vocals for those who don't always appreciate true artistry or are too fond of looking for what they would call perfection, but until then, please keep up the amazing work. Your voice is beautiful, and you are inspiring! Rock on!

[@dionclark5025]

You blew me out the park with op1 again and now you do another amazing Fullmetal opening your gonna be my go to guy for anime songs

[@TheDarkkillergirl]

I love your cover of this song! My little siblings would play your first cover of this song whenever we want to get pumped, now I don't know which one I should play on repeat anymore...I think I shall play both!

[@elijahbelencion630]

The best Eng cover I've heard. Man your voice fits so much.

[@MercenaryPen]

This song has never failed to get the adrenaline running through my veins- I usually prefer the Japanese version, but you've done wonders with the english version here.

[@Its_V717]

I think most of us will agree when I say that FMA is one of the greatest manga (and related anime) ever invented. Said so, this is a song I do really love from FMA:B, and I am truly amazed. Your performance its stunning. I get goosebumps every time... What an incredible voice. Yeah, a voice fullmetal... #CalebTheSymphonicAlchemist

[@uts-tyler6119]

Is it really coincidental that I finished FMAB just two days ago and suddenly Caleb makes a cover? I'm feeling really special ^_^

Thanks for uploading this! It's my favorite FMA:B opening and as always, you sing it so well! :)

[@brandonhehn7527]

THANK YOU!!! I love how good artists will add that extra "umph" to their songs, like when you did the deep breath. Here in the states, I don't even hear "head voices" like you have. Japanese songs are great for having gun shots and breaking glass effects. LOVE IT

[@vy8554]

I love that you are on a FMA B kick! I just finished the series for the first time like a month ago

[@Ravenshiddensoul]

Wow, this is an excellent cover! I love how you matched the lyrics to the melody, and the shift in your voice between the gentler, almost wistful verses to the powerful bridge and chorus adds so much heart! It sounds amazing.

[@zenborath6275]

Never thought I'd be this excited from a period.

[@maliaspoto992]

Man, I thought I was going crazy when one day I just really wanted to listen to your version of this song, but I couldn't find it anywhere on KZbin. When I saw you re-uploaded this song, I was so happy. Now I can finally listen to your wonderful version of this beautiful song again.

[@cerosaroset2263]

Not going to lie, man. This is one of the best covers I've ever heard. You are awesome.

[@arthuracton9954]

This remains to this day one of my favorite OPs ever, and you did a fantastic job covering it!

[@saver_spenta_mainyu]

Don't need harmonies and MIDIs to sound good; just need heart. You're always singing with your heart which is why you always sound so great!

[@catalandustin51]

one of the best voices on KZbin. so soothing and powerful

[@WierdEnuf4Ya]

I love this song so much, and your performance was amazing! THIS is the kind of screaming I like to hear in my music, the kind that feels like vocal manifestation of the singer's heart and soul. The kind that you can just feel the emotion behind.

[@noanRUA]

This is one of the few songs that I try not to listen to in public because it honestly makes me want to burst out singing full volume (probably whilst dancing down the street and making random passerby my backup dancers)

[@papayapas]

I'm absolutely loving this influx of FMA covers! If you have the time, you should consider doing a cover of Brothers/Bratja from the first anime! It's such a haunting, heartfelt tune

[@Shadowirit]

It brings me great sadness that the full version of the original is no where to be found these days. None of the covers have the same "shift" that gave the song its flow. That being said, I loved this and you've done the best cover so far!
