I'm always impressed by people who can sing and play drums at the same time

[@alonsocushing2398]

Me too. It must be like patting your head and rubbing your stomach at the same time.

[@benostiguy7215]

I play drums and guitar... playing and singing is not too difficult in either case if you are reasonably proficient. Playing lead or syncopated fills while singing is another story! Otherwise, singing while playing a rock beat is like walking and singing. That said, this dude sings well and lays down a good steady beat. Very cool!

[@lorenzobernardi5261]

I can sing and play but I cannot talk and play

[@BassDuchess]

Otis Guy I too am a fellow muso. I play Bass and sing. Some genres are easier than others. Singing rock yeah but when I get to reggae we’ll let’s just say I’m glad that I only do harmonies 😂😂😂😂 on those songs. These guys and girls that sit in with them are just brilliant.

[@oaktree1628]

Don Henley

[@siuhoihui1040]

let's just appreciate the guitarist in the red coat who played the same C notes throughout the whole song. Everyone should understand not every guitarist wants to be that man standing on the stage and playing the same notes for the entire song, but this man understand if he is absent, the cover won't be successful. Great job

[@thoyarik]

this rolling note is very important thx to him

[@seabreeze3906]

The man in the red coat, is the amazing Dusty Lee Stephensen, incredible lead guitarist and lead vocalist himself. Taking one for the team.

[@souledge2809]

The consistency throughout the song is incredible. The simplest thing is sometime the hardest thing to do.

[@BillBene67]

This guy is a GREAT singer.. This is an incredibly difficult song that he nailed

Not only is it hard to sing this song as it is, let alone sitting down, and then throw in the drums. Imagine nailing both! Awesome job drummer/singer. The rest of the band sounded clean and simply great... 👏👏👏

C'est clair pas facile de faire les 2...mais super résultat ! Bravo !

[@calebrabion]

Not to difficult if you're a natural talent. If you had to work harder to get there, then yes it's hard.

[@nunooliveira4257]

The vocal and drum parts sound as if they were performed by different (and great) musicians. Actually, the whole rhythm section sounds groovier than the original to me. Also fantastic arrangement, tastefully mixed, and that guitar solo... man... Not sure these guys realise how good they are.

[@kalwithers5458]

The drumming is off the scale - perfection - I love this band

[@banban560]

That guitar solo was a dope add on to the song!🔥 Who would have thought!!!

[@tonemac6558]

The lead guitarist plays so effortlessly , kicking his shoes likes its another day in the office. What a legend! And while dancing Con's laugh at 3:18-3:24 .... priceless!

That dance again!!! YOu can watch it as well on their Baby Come back Cover!!! So EPIC!

[@harrisgmts8688]

Crazy chemistry!

[@paso193]

Man!! That huge arena/stadium tone Stefan Hauk gets on that Les Paul solo is what brings me back to any HSCC video he happens to be playing on. Guy has monster chops and has somehow corralled that mythical 'seminal tone' that all us guitar players seem to be endlessly chasing. Survivor should pay him a royalty for elevating the caliber of this song......Well done, sir!

[@angusorvid8840]

The lead guitarist totally shreds. Absolutely awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@seabreeze3906]

The amazing Stefan Hauk

[@svetnik]

He should shred some lettuce.

[@midiaz1319]

They killed this song. From the Guitar, the vocals everything sounded like the orginal. Great band.

PERFECT choice to bring us out of quarentine. "Did my time, took my chances. Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet Just a man and his will to survive" BRAVO HSCC!

You guys are so amazing, I feel so much better after listening to you guys. Mr. Con your are a genius with your bass playing, Truly in awe of your style.

[@davidspearie6921]

Props to the drummer for being the "frontman ". Otta nowhere. 👍

[@cpg8000]

Stefan Hauk’s lead playing is downright tasty. Kudos to this band for continuing to kick ass. ❤️

[@navrasicsi]

Yes, it was a good solo. On the other hand I was surprised, because they usually play the original versions almost note by note. And there's no solo in the original song. But I like this way as well.

[@menu-kb2xi]

Super

[@poolhall9632]

[@bluedlodlo]

It’s very brave of you to cover a song that most everyone knows and loves! Great job! I’m loving the passion of every musician in HSCC! Bravo to Brad for the tight vocals AND drums! That Con Delo guy on the bass guitar ain’t too shabby either. 👏🏽👏🏽

Invite the church to check it out haaa I’m with you the 80s juke box rocks on HSCC

[@suckymotor]

I think every guitarist on the planet knows how important that one note is to this song, and how difficult it is to maintain the exact amount of palm muting for an entire song, but well done Dusty - nailed it 👏 😁

[@perfectimperfectionstudio6760]

I totally agree

[@mikosoft]

probably one of the most underrated riffs by how difficult it is to pull it off for the whole duration of the song

[@greencase]

lol

[@myowngalnow777]

Like many others, I have found HSCC during this difficult time of pandemic. You folks are such a blessing at such a time as this. Your skills, your smiles, everything, is just “it” during this unprecedented stress! Thank you for sharing your music. You are truly superb! (My thought, the song “She’s waiting” by Eric Clapton would be perfect). Wishing you safety and health and thank you, again, for bringing joy!

[@DrSuvirajJohn]

I join you in this experience as much as many people around the world. Enjoy the DownUnder in a new refreshing Southern Aussie way!

[@davidstolarski741]

Stefan tearing it up on lead guitar. Brad- great vocals while drumming. You guys are my favorite "re-cover" band. You always make them better....

I knew Jimi quite well....from way back when, when he was the lead singer for "Target" (Memphis)....He would be so impressed by your awesome cover of his big hit.... thanks for bringing back memories of such a talented friend and wonderful guy...who had no bad ego, whatsoever..

NICE!!! Nailed it! Can’t imagine singing *properly* while playing drums - that’s a skill. The rhythm guitar was spot on. And you know a guitarist is good when he/she really doesn’t need to look while they play any of the riffs. Thanks guys!

This song has needed a lead solo for a long time.

[@amandamarie6764]

I did not expect the drummer to sing! Always impressive how they do both!

[@MoPoppins]

I’m so envious of drummers who are also good singers! Their bodies look SO relaxed while they’re doing all this athletic drumming, whilst simultaneously singing a high-energy 80s song-there’s no competition in the brain for concentrating on either of these activities that would be challenging for most. #jealous Much love & respect for all the amazing artistry here! 👏 👏 👏

[@louisdavid7755]

Great drummer, great singer... but the guitarist in black is the star... amazing band, amazing musicians

[@jazzguitarneophyte-christo7988]

When I listen to cover tunes, I listen to changes made that make it the band's style to make it their own and yet keeping the real song as evidenced by the drummer's beat and voice that has become very familiar to all listeners. For me it's all in the arrangement. The subtle change in the intro's last line.the staccato rhythm guitar coupled with the bass guitar, the lead guitar, keyboard and bongos that blend so well and nobody upstaging the other and finally that subtle change again in the song's ending made this their own and made for a great cover! Way to go guys! Every time I hear you all play it reminds me that there are still bands out there that really care about good musical arrangement.

[@ianmcpherson2147]

I am a massive fan of Survivor and have all their albums. I have got to say that this with the guitar solo is better than the original. Well done HSCC
