[@pradyumnamukunda9222]

Audra's vocal range is so amazing she covers songs by both male and female singers in their original pitch.🔥

[@dulaneyp]

Autotune is amazing like that. 😅

[@brianmckennamusic9434]

Although they did use quite a bit of tuning on this song. (idk why she doesn’t really need it) auto tune doesn’t change the tonal quality of your voice.

[@cypher515]

Occasionally she does stretch it too much in my opinion (mostly on 3 or 4 year old recordings) where a key change would play to her strength, but I'm not counting this one among those, I think it makes the MOST sense here for her to stay in the same key and stretch just a little low for the first verse and everything else fits her range best.

[@markr1550]

@@brianmckennamusic9434 I don't know why they use it either. Compare this one to their cover of sweet child o' mine, and a live version of the same. They're both excellent. For this one, change the key if needed, few will notice. But people will notice the over production. This said, still love them.

I loved this song, as an 18 year old, back 1991. Yes Tom Cochrane's version, the original. Awesome cover, thanks all of you.

[@dogmaticlord]

"Life Is a Highway" is a song by Canadian musician Tom Cochrane from his second studio album, Mad Mad World (1991). The song became a number-one hit in Canada in late 1991. "Life Is a Highway" also peaked at number six on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart in August 1992 and reached the top three in Australia and New Zealand the same year.

[@bear_hardy2118]

Yep, not sure who Rascal Flatts is and only ever known this as a rock song and not country

[@daneg]

@@bear_hardy2118 Rascal Flatts covered the song on the Cars soundtrack (pixar movie). i also have no idea why they're calling it a rascal flatts song or even calling it country b/c afaik rascal flatts did a pretty straight cover of the 90s anthem. rascal flatts is a country group. it didn't sound "country" to me, but I'm not a music guy. maybe there's a technical reason? /shrug

[@mirandahallisy97]

First it was Tom Cochrane who sang "Life Is A Highway", then Chris LeDoux, and then Rascal Flatts, but First To Eleven knocked it outta the park, a grand slam like their rock cover of Carrie Underwood's "Before He Cheats"! 🤘💖

[@mirandahallisy97]

Also, Rascal Flatts eventually split up, and frontman Gary LeVox has a solo career now.

[@Mew-chan1993]

That is interesting. I didn't think it was a Rascal Flats original.

[@fausto123]

I'm sure these kids grew up watching CARS.

[@maxr8500]

Just watched Cars again because of this cover. Nostalgia, loved it. And sound engineering is beyond insane in this one🤘

[@cheryla7480]

The Cars version is also a cover, the original is by Tom Cochrane.

Tom Cochrane was OG, Rascal Flatts just brought it big

[@krthecarguy5150]

True, but this cover is clearly of the Rascal Flatts version

[@SpencerMahon]

@@krthecarguy5150 I know. I do prefer the Rascal Flatts version, it’s a case of the cover being better than the OG. I’m just glad 80s and 90s music still has a big influence on todays music

MY OWN OFFICIAL THOUGHTS EXACTLY!

[@andrewdrone]

If you're a label and lurking here, this is what talent looks like. Staying true to the original song while adding your own flavor to it is incredibly difficult to pull off. Seriously impressive. One of the best covers I've ever seen

[@billymays7210]

Which original? The original original or the cover of the original?

[@brianklein7147]

You actually say that seriously don't you...

[@AceHuman]

​@brianklein7147 He is not wrong though. In fact my mans is speaking facts they did their own thing with the song

[@andrewdrone]

I stand behind everything I said. The title of the video is clear.

[@MidianVGC]

A label wont sign a cover band tho, no matter how good they are. A label will be interested in a F211 original song.

Lyrics Whoo! Mmm, yeah Life's like a road that you travel on When there's one day here, and the next day gone Sometimes you bend, sometimes you stand Sometimes you turn your back to the wind There's a world outside every darkened door Where blues won't haunt you anymore Where the brave are free and lovers soar Come ride with me to the distant shore We won't hesitate To break down the garden gate There's not much time left today, yeah Life is a highway I wanna ride it all night long If you're goin' my way Well, I wanna drive it all night long Through all these cities and all these towns It's in my blood, and it's all around I love you now like I loved you then This is the road, and these are the hands From Mozambique to those Memphis nights The Khyber Pass to Vancouver's lights Knock me down and back up again You're in my blood, I'm not a lonely man There's no load I can't hold A road so rough, this I know I'll be there when the light comes in Just tell 'em we're survivors Life is a highway I wanna ride it all night long (whoo!) If you're goin' my way I wanna drive it all night long (all night long) A-gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme, yeah Life is a highway Well, I wanna ride it all night long, mmm, yeah If you're goin' my way (if you're goin' my way) I wanna drive it all night long (all night long) There was a distance between you and I (between you and I) A misunderstanding once But now we look it in the eye, ooh, yeah Mmm, yeah (whoo!) There ain't no load that I can't hold A road so rough, this I know I'll be there when the light comes in Tell 'em we're survivors Life is a highway Well, I wanna ride it all night long (all night long, yeah) If you're goin' my way Well, I wanna drive it all night long A-gimme, gimme, gimme A-gimme, gimme, yeah Life is a highway (life is a highway) I wanna ride it all night long, whoo, ooh, yeah If you're goin' my way (if you're goin' my way) I wanna drive it all night long (all night long, yeah) C'mon, gimme, gimme, gimme Gimme, gimme, gimme, yeah Life is a highway I wanna ride it all night long (Yeah, I wanna drive it all night long, baby) If you're goin' my way (if you're goin' my way) I wanna drive it all night long (all night long)

This video just perfectly summarises why I'm obsessed with this band. Discovered you guys January this year and I've unashamedly played you obsessively. The small intricacies in the instruments and Audra as a whole is just perfection. When Audra shows her positive, bubbly personality it just makes you want to move and rock out just like her. The whole band produces such an infectious sound that starts with Audra and it's impossible not to dance along. You guys know how to do the best covers.

I was literally just complaining about Life is a Highway doesn't ever have any good covers since Rascal Flatts. I am not only proven wrong, but I absolutely love this! Thanks for giving this song justice with a proper cover.

I had honestly never heard of the original before, but this cover is phenomenal as usual. The guitar work during the chorus makes it super catchy.

[@andrey_s_it]

Very cool song. She may not seem serious. But what's really here is the professional growth of the group and Audra. At first I didn’t take outfits seriously, but now I’m already a fashion connoisseur. Thank you ❤ for the good mood from the song

[@Westhelockpicker]

Had a lot of fun listening to this song

[@VerryBonne]

Yeah, this should be credited to Tom Cochrane, not Rascall Flatts tho. Maybe the younger generation first heard the cover version in Cars, but it was actually a hit song long before, which is why it was included in Cars in the first place. Most anyone who was around in the 90's would know the original.

Ok, Audra's rock progression is undoubted. But what about Matt? I have a very similar feeling with him to the one I have always felt with John Anthony Frusciante. In each new album he pointed out flashes of his mind-blowing creativity. So many to dream that in the next Concert he will explode that wonderful guitar... Like a great excitement that never reaches orgasm but always seems to be very close to it. Matt, please let go without brakes! 🤘
