Cosmic Love by Florence and The Machine / O'Keefe Music Foundation

[@karlloeffler1755]

Coming back to this 10 years later and so many of us said "This girl has a voice" and look at her now. Rocking out old soul style with "Saving Escape". I've said it a million times, but Mr. O'Keefe, you are doing it right!

[@rmcdaniel423]

That delicate little warble of vibrato she starts to add about half way into the song . . . as she's gearing up to knock you over with her powerhouse voice.

[@whidbeyhiker4364]

The only problem I have listening to these kids is losing track of time and staying up way past my bedtime.

[@LynnTharp1971]

easy to crawl down that rabbit hole!

[@danellett9274]

too true.

[@mtmanone1]

2:38 am 1-4-2019 I love this it gives me hope for the future.......

[@jamesoconnor2226]

Whidbey Hiker great reply I totally laughed mbo

[@Mebucko]

Same here December 18 2019 wanted to hear a couple songs and came across a mix so, damn I will be sleepy in the morning, but it's ok love listening to them. So inspiring....

[@SuperLaney81]

Her voice!! Hits your soul

[@RevSmoke]

F*^%*d up I felt that too but thought I was just being insane as always. Her voice is hauntingly comforting and amazing,

[@stavrosforever]

O’Keefe has had a lot of great singers, but this girl is definitely my favorite, and she kept that haunting sound as she got older, too!

[@leegmc1985]

There is something magical about Kala's voice. In everything she sings there is connection to one's spirit or soul. One could say, her voice is beyond this world......just my opinion.

[@fernandocompean9555]

Every bodys opinion. She's amazing.

[@MTD_1969]

Agreed. I listen to her cover of Sober because I like it more than the original. And I enjoy listening to TOOL. Kala’s voice is magical.

[@klakey23]

@@MTD_1969 Tool, is my favorite band. i have seen them live more times than i can count. Her versions of Sober, 46&2 and The Pot are f'ing AMAZING.

[@ReligionOfSacrifice]

@@fernandocompean9555, honestly I thought she was amazing in "46 and 2" but sucked in the other three back in the day, but now I have heard her acoustic version of "Revelation" along with this and some others and believe she has an amazing voice capable of being in my top five favorite female voices with the likes of Karen Carpenter, Karen Matheson, and Emma Shapplin. She needs to think up some lyrics for a bluegrass, zydeco, hard rock, pop, and techno music all for the same album and I think she'd breakthrough to main stream.

[@ReligionOfSacrifice]

@Ellodie Quebbeman, she didn't impress me with "Sober" but her "46 & 2" was better than the original.

[@zodak9999b]

Wow, this is definitely her best song. It's given me manly tears of manliness. Not crying. Manly tears! Manly I say!

[@zookr]

zodak9999b reminds me of Matilda in "The Professional"

[@kellybarton6902]

should hear her sing pull me under

[@miracle3me696]

Me too also...manly tears!

[@SpaceAndroidz]

Lol be a man... and... crryyyyyy

[@grudge6648]

It’s been 4 years and I’m still laughing at your comment

[@hodgemandan]

Unbelievable. That girl's voice is perfect for this song.

[@stephenwhite655]

Kala Rose!!! She is very good.

[@lewiswagner5856]

+Stephen White will be spreading the word about her!!! A once in a generation talent and voice is one that, she can sing anything and make it great!!!

[@joeljorgefernandes8513]

This song is one of the most complex in terms of vocalization, Florence and the Machine cover is not for everyone ... Congratulations Kala, you're a virtuoso ...

[@zookr]

How does this not have millions of views ???????

[@jeffthompson2624]

that little girl is gonna go somewhere with such a beautiful voice like that

[@Tiffany-y3m]

i'm not crying, you're crying Holy Heavens this recording is truly, truly epic. 😇 i really mean that, from my whole 💜

[@JohnMorales-z8k]

No Tiffany I think we're both crying

[@johnfraser9942]

Why am I only seeing this now??? I'll have this moment to enjoy hearing it for the first time!

[@JeffThirteen]

Ive listened to this song/ version over 100 times easy; Its more beautiful every time. One of the rare times a cover FAR surpasses the original! Perfect arrangement and mastering. But the kisds are the real stars here. Aaron Okeefe has a special eye for talent. Thanks Aaron!

[@zookr]

JeffThirteen - on my list of YT faves - also, Moth to the Flame

[@thebluedan]

JeffThirteen I’m only a little behind your count.

[@Woolliscroft1]

I agree. I love the original, but this is even better.

[@j5jackson878]

Man that kid can belt it out! She has excellent range, and she can round off the transitions just as flawless! Shes got some real talent! She sings with such conviction, as if she wrote it herself! If she so chooses, she'll be putting albums out in the future.

[@Humulus_Lupulus]

I have been listening to this amazing piece of art for the last ten years... It has helped me so many times - you cannot even imagine. Do not be too hard on yourself for losing the additional footage... I would have loved to see and hear it as well, but since you band of angels already delivered gold there is not much sense in mourning 🙂 Your amazing version of this piece is an important part of my life and I thank everybody involved in it from the bottom of my heart 🤗 Thank you.

[@davidwg2011]

Christ.... The power in that little girl's voice. I can only imagine the force it will carry as she grows and life and emotion leave their impressions on it.... I sincerely believe and hope to hear much more from all of these kids.... their talent, tenacity and fortitude are tremendous.

[@davidwg2011]

One more thought, I wonder what Florence would think? I would love to hear/see her reaction.

[@KWHCoaster]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/m5WrZZSgltudgtE

[@WoefulMinion]

As much as I love all of Kala's music, I still think this is my favorite performance. The control, nuance, and expressiveness are unreal. This vocal showcases all the wonderful colors of her voice.

[@1robdavidson]

Please don't apologize for the filming , it fits the singing spot on ! These kids are amazing and I hope to hear more great things from you and your students .

[@22Vicci]

I've been following her since she began with the O'Keefe Foundation. Although this video is when she was young, I would hope she's now at the age to go global, professionally. I want to hear that voice sing for a very long time.

[@gregfordyce]

2:20-2:46 is incredible. Such maturity in that voice for such a young age.

[@Sparkyfish35]

Possibly her best all around vocal I have heard. so mesmerizing. All the kids are simply incredible! Hat's off to each of them, their parents(Supporters) and the entire foundation.

[@kennethkvasys3809]

I'm witnessing magic in the making.

[@bonemanten]

So I have listened to this cover and the original. This is hands down better. Kala has an amazing voice that I can't seem to get enough of. Looking forward to great things from her.

[@stephenwhite655]

Kala really shows her range on this song. It was absolutely amazing.

[@LPDarkSoulsHD]

3:53 Always gives me rad chills. That girl sings like a champ. Very impressive projection and vibrato for such a young vocalist.

[@Wag2112]

check the video for Longest day by Ironmaiden . Kala again , this age - HOLY SHIT !!! She is actually more powerful and intense than Bruce is - in areas.

[@unprofound]

When her hand trembles hitting the high...a true moment

[@newpromus]

La trovo molto più bella e intensa dell'originale! La musica scivola via cristallina come l'acqua fresca di un torrente e la voce incantevole di Kala regala forti emozioni.

[@edsmelly]

Yeah I recognized her from the Tool song too. She's going to be big. That girl rocks.

[@ryangorda6127]

They got me with Dream Theater and this version is awesome, her voice is magnificent. My shower acoustics can't handle this.

[@aaronjs00]

I can't stop listening. I.. just... can't... stop!!!

[@russsullins4349]

My gosh i just cannot get over these kids,the students of Aaron O'Keefe.Stunning,stunning,Such talent and Kala Scarpinski on vocals is out of this world,,seen her sing several songs and blows me away.Fantastic job kids,be proud.

[@bananabananaman123]

This is absolutely amazing. I have chills. I really hope florence herself sees this and thinks the same

[@bobthe5550]

It is pretty rare that the sound/emotion of a song can bring tears to my eyes

[@perryscott2328]

ten years late but it got me too.

[@mshineshare]

Awesomeness. Is just wish OKF WOULD START ACKNOWLEDGING THE PLAYERS IN THE DESCRIPTIONS! They’ve worked hard, give them some credit for the money YOU collect!

[@davenoch7837]

Übertrifft das Original bei weitem

[@FranTizUndici]

Perform so well a song by Florence is really impressive.

[@markdibbs3956]

When I need something to make me remember that there is still goodness and beauty ever jaded world, I come to listen to this and am refreshed. These kids work hard at their craft and it shines brightly as a everlasting gift to the universe.

[@stephanieallangarman5598]

Kayla’s vocals fit perfectly with this FLORENCE SONG cover. 💁🏻‍♀️🎧🎼🎶🤍🕊 The other young musicians SLAY their parts as well. I keep coming back to hear this OUTSTANDING performance. 🙇🏻‍♀️👏🏽

[@kylebingham5920]

I would love to see more of Kala. This girl has a gift for sure. Keep it up girl. The band was amazing as well. Awesome cover.

[@imagicworldview]

Some of the best engineering ever. Kudos to the guy(s) who got this!

[@erickepstein8485]

Honestly find this version more charming than the original. Pure love of music incorporated by talented youth.

[@sunreds]

Don't let me tell you a whole story but just iterate that I agree with you on a very deep personal level...

[@salsburypat225]

i really hope young miss singer follows through with a musical career.so many of these kids could have a future in the performing arts business. lets hope.

[@patrickoakes817]

to take this song and make it yours in heart and with incredible empathy i am humbled.

[@tumasch76]

I have listened to this cover for a few months now and can't stop marvelling at the atmosphere and the sheer amazement it releases in me. Absolutely stunning, considering it's the students' own reinterpretation!

[@gregfordyce]

What a voice. Just heard her do this song on the Kala Rose Channel, 2014, just her and a guitar. She just gets better and better.....

[@DaRozeman]

Vocalist just straight kills it on this one, well done young lady!

[@fredmeyfarth648]

Regardless of what type of music you like, how could anyone not get into this? This gives me hope of a future!!! Keep these types of foundations building and in schools. I'm a total metalhead , but this blew me away. Thanks O'keefe Foundation!!!!

[@roberteuton]

I have to admit it..it brings tears to my eyes as I hear this angel sing..she has the range and i don't know...all I can say is this girl can sing...you go girl..you rock..

[@mitchelllarson5595]

Truly I am a Kayla Scarpinski fan. She nailed this one. The girl is so powerful! All of the O'keefe kids are so talented.

[@cynicalpink]

The kind of comment I wish I could give multiple likes! It's a shame not every child has the opportunity to participate in this kind of music program, but I'm so glad that initiatives like this exist.

[@LizaEve]

Wow...left me speechless. I was not expecting that . Nice

[@laimbeersux]

No joke covering this song. Much bigger range than some of the other songs. Another great job by this young singer that is destined for stardom. I give her 5-10 years before she's on the national stage.

[@daveb6371]

international

[@theslimeylimey]

She slays every song but this is amazing.

[@TedBishop1]

Kala is absolutely amazing !

[@ruggedpower]

3:05 when she trembles. The music just flows from her at the point it's incredible for such a young kid to have so much feeling

[@lindsaybaker2573]

Thank God we r all okay... all of us. Man I love these kids and their music... my voice and my heart

[@mikeclemens795]

That young lady's voice is hauntingly beautiful.

[@michaelb1761]

I think this was her first OMF performance on KZbin, and it is in competition with her singing Crazy Horse, her last OMF performance, as her best. Amazing!

[@BestGirlSingersHere1]

I'm a mad Kala S and Aaron O fan, can't believe I'd never seen this until today!

[@0Nakkiel0]

I can't express how beautiful it is and what i feel... Maybe Hope is right word... it so cool that those kids is being teached real music... art... Both they and teachers should be very proud.

[@danmartinez7534]

I love Kala 's cover of Tools 46 & two but this has got to be my ALL TIME FAVORITES

[@Mightycaptain]

Amazing job. That singer is going to be great.

[@graciealsbrooks685]

She makes the original song sound like a cover!!!

[@UGFLuk]

the half time change is badass! these kids are seriously talented!! absolutely superb!! keep it up!

[@bryondunn3661]

Every song Kala sings gives me goosebumps! AMAZING cover. I am a huge Tool fan and I think they made 46 & 2 even better than the original...now, they even topped the original Cosmic Love. No doubt these kids will go far, especially Kala.

[@kumbala1]

esellanta Totally agree, I'm Kala fan too

[@maticvecko6976]

+1 :)

[@realStoneEm]

i thought the same when i first heard 46&2 of them

[@bookwyvern5994]

I thought her voice sounded familiar!! She was awesome singing 46 &2!

[@dog3y3]

Bryon Dunn I especially like Pull Me Under. And it's not just her. Those kids can play. No BS.

[@pieterengelke7482]

Loving the little chime girl.So cute :)

[@palmerjohnson4982]

This is one of the most beautiful things that I have ever heard. Whenever I am depressed or have had a bad day, I listen to this.

[@lindsaybaker2573]

Love u little ones thank u for helping build my story to be free. U mean so much to me for that.

[@Noah6202]

keep singing from your heart, never forget that

[@danmartinez7534]

I have to listen to this song and Kala's voice at least once or twice a week

[@dionshare7103]

This has to be the best of her younger years music. At that just so beautiful of a voice.

[@d.j.carone123]

I'm a bloody fan!!!!

[@sanjeevbalakrishnan936]

Kala Rose! ❤️

[@gordl5670]

How is this not in the million views? Wow

[@MrFlagon]

Because its real and pure

[@neuron05]

The musicians are really doing a spotless job! And I have no idea how someone this young can sing with this feeling *and* look and sound like she really means it. The whole thing is really something else.

[@paulsanchez6832]

My 6yr old son is obsessed with Kala Rose! myself as well, these kids are so talented we can't stop watching them do amazing things. We are gonna take a trip out there to visit the school! So excited 😊

[@graciedominguez5545]

Omg!!! Her voice is BEYOND AMAZING!!!! LOVE hearing her sing 💖💖💖🎶🎧🎧🎶🎶🎶

[@lewiswagner5856]

All of these kids are so talented!!! Each and every single one!!! From drums to base to lead guitarist!!! 46+2 FAVORITE!! Drummer, WHAT! Vocal! Crazy! Base, all!!! Newest Fan, right here!!! Go kick your dreams ass kids!!! Take it!! It's yours!! Blessings!

[@gregfordyce]

I gotta keep coming back to view/listen to this every month or two. Just never get tired of it.

[@markpetone5354]

Such a powerful voice Kayla Rose

[@Jason-TheChad-Muska_circa1995]

Kala* But yes it's ridiculous. Oh and what's even more ridiculous is that she isn't famous. Something is wrong with the world these days

[@brianbrowder9761]

I’m hooked

[@tylernoah6704]

Wow..this song has more meaning to me than any other song ever written, because it perfectly expresses exactly what it feels like to be kept from the love of your life, and willing to do absolutely anything, even self destruct with them, if it means they’re not alone. This is one of the most beautiful songs ever written. What a cover. Wow.

[@LynnTharp1971]

That sweet little girl has such a bright future! All those kids do too.

[@zebramasklover]

I think this version is FANTASTIC!!!

[@eidlawnairb]

everything about this is absolutely perfect. her voice is breathtaking.

[@bobpombrio1499]

Goosebumps is right! VERY nice.

[@markgregory983]

Kala has that "spark" that you just teach. She is so young, yet has that soulfulness already. She clearly understands the emotion in the song (even if she has never felt it as it was intended), and she identifies what it offers, as you can see by her facial expressions as she sings. My guess is she will be one hell of a song writer as well as musician when she is older.

[@chatboxguy3363]

Actually its not working out for her. United States just isn't a good place to start a good music career no more.

[@a20fan]

Actually it's working out pretty good for her. Her band is playing all over the Cinn. area and is recording original stuff too. Seems pretty good for a group comprised of 15 yr olds.

[@stephenwhite655]

Definitely is working out for her, the band she is with, Saving Escape is putting out an EP soon with 5 original songs. Should be great.

[@evlredsun]

Amazing arrangement! i love the retro feel of the video!

[@cervidio]

Kala's voice is pure poetry! What a singer. Great job Aaron

[@145rpg]

The talent these kids have is just amazing.

[@shiverpunt]

Her voice matches to this song beautifully. These kids are really gifted.

[@theherrstraveladventures]

I like this version way better than the original. Great job kids!

[@jasonfeazel9044]

Kala is AWESOME!!! She the music world is blessed to have her in it!

[@tedy6139]

I just can't get over her.....all of them. All the videos are amazing.

[@dougstagg4786]

such soul for an 11 year old. amazing vocals and great to see them doing covers of songs like these.

[@JintzTV]

MIND = BLOWN!! I just realized this is the only song I've never heard her sing. Again, absolutely AMAZING!!!

[@millwall63]

Oh my god, this gave me goosebumps, my wife loved this song, and she killed it, what a great future music holds with these kids.

[@gregorypain2439]

What a singer! Amazing

[@tammiewilbur5136]

Love that little girls voice. You guys are doing wonderful things with these kids!

[@twoinone7713]

It gives me such comfort to know Sirens that like this are here along the way through the darkness, God bless you angels Rose's voice is so commanding. You can't help to yield and be melted by her intense connection to your spine, spilling chills over, and piercing right into your heart. A true "siren" of our age. ageless in the shadows of our hearts

[@RickNeedham]

Beautiful. I love it!! The girl singing sounds fabulous. And the music is excellent. I like this version more than the real version!!! :)
