Greta Van Fleet - Heat Above reaction

Greta Van Fleet releases new song "Heat Above" which will be included on their upcoming Album - The Battle at the Gardens Gate.

[@boblatzer]

So uplifting. The song is infectious. I can listen to over and over.

[@Eikei]

First day I heard it, I played it about 10 times!

[@ringocrafter03]

I know I'm probably gonna get hate for this, but I personally think Josh Kiszka's voice is better than Geddy Lee's voice. Geddy is a better musician overall, but when it comes to vocal abilities I personally prefer Josh's voice.

[@higginsreport]

Amazingly though, Geddy Lee can still sing at 67 years old!

[@damselflyable]

@@higginsreport I think Josh could be as well. You questioned whether he would still be singing like this at 40 but I know he does take care of his voice and has had proper vocal training so the techniques he uses are easy for him and don't strain his vocal chords. I really enjoyed your reaction thanks. 😁

[@seth1372]

i agree partially

And Robert plant

[@etiennescarbinski7890]

More diverse for sure

[@j9andphoenix]

Josh knows he has to maintain his instrument (vocal) and touring a lot post covid will be a bit tricky. I listened to all my GVF yesterday - just closed my eyes and let is wash over me - made me feel a whole lot better. I like music from all decades. Greta has been a gift to me in 2021.

[@Shirayuuki1]

I dont see the problem with them being compared to other artists. i mean, when you are compared to amazing legendary artists and so many of them at that, that means A) you sound awesome B) they cant pinpoint a single artist so that in itself means you are making the sound your own. Also, lets not forget that these guys are still SO young! give them 10 more years to mature and then lets see who they've become! If they sound this amazing now, who knows how great they can become.

[@blueberry5878]

You should watch their live performances of these songs. They're amazing live. The bassist plays keyboards and bass pedals just like John Paul Jones, amazing musician.

[@Vinylfiend60]

The blues had a baby and they called it rock n roll! All the greats stole from their hero’s. There hasn’t been anything in decades that breaks the mold and is truly original. What matters is has the artist brought a new interpretation to the music. The first time I heard Greta Van Fleet I thought they sounded like the chipmunks doing Led Zeppelin. I have since listened to their music more closely and I think they are exactly what rock needs to kick its ass into shape. Enough with the endless hip hop droning on about the hood none of us live in. These guys are very talented and they bring the songs that should blast them to super stardom!

[@relaxlibrary1088]

Awesome Video thanks very much only thing to say about these superstars they have landed on earth to bring back 70s real band sounds and fantastic vocals and drums and bass and guitar . thanks i have just downloaded all of their stuff what a band of total worldwide rising massive stars that will wipe the floor clean and get loads of musicians all around the world to stand up and take note of this shooting stars my hat is off to them nothing comes near to this dudes i love them they have now re juvinated old and young people now on a fantastic journey . awesome . yip just keep talking about them millions are and will be for along long time enjoy it i am . peace out

[@MrNalettinho]

The first time I've listened to this song, I've immediately thought of Rush/Geddy Lee!

[@BradCooney]

I've been playing guitar for over 30 years and also love all the legends in Led Zeppelin, Rush, Queen etc...Greta Van Fleet is way more than just a Zeppelin sound alike band. Yes sure, a few tracks have familiar sounds of old, but why the F are people bitching????? I've been DYING for a band to hit the scene that actually play instruments, sing without auto tune, and write great shit. I'll take these guys ALL EFFIN DAY over the shit music put out by current shi*

[@higginsreport]

Well said Brad..thx for watching

[@KK-bx1qm]

You told us what it doesn't make you wanna do. But what does it make you want to do? I guess, it makes me feel love. It's a very loving track and it warms my heart, which I think was their intention.

[@higginsreport]

Keith, I said it calms me down, I like it. I'm looking forward to getting the Album when it comes out...

[@ronaldreynolds9250]

All iam going to say is it GVF not led or rush, And for his voice if you watch him live he never struggles to hit the notes, its all easy for him so with that they will be around for a long time and lets all like them for being them not some else

[@luzantonio908]

Hi Mike! Excellent! Greta Van Fleet is the Soundtrack of my life! I like this rock band! Cheers. Greetings! 👋👍🎸🎧🎼

[@higginsreport]

Thx for watching Luz

[@robsonsousa3176]

They are amanzily clever. Love them

[@Alfablue227]

I am surprised nobody sees the YES influence in their music as well.. Is it just me? GVF are just amazing...and if they sound like Page, Lee, Mercury better still. It just shows the amazing quality they possess. ❤️🙏

[@biggi2347]

I also see the YES influence. The voice is also a bit like YES...but better❤

[@shree397]

Sounding like great bands from 60-70-80s is coz they explored almost everything thus the fall of rock happened, but now one band is bringing all of that back in one package....... Wouldn't that need talent........and we are off cussing them for not being original, why? There is nothing new to rock remaining for most part its better to mash it up in a great package and enjoy🔥 But hey what do i know I'm Indian and 26 we recently started listening to rock in late 90s.😭

[@daviddow8150]

Geddy Lee and Robert Plant are not bad to be compared to vocally.

The Beatles were heavily influenced by Gene Vincent etc. initially ... the main thing is to keep creating

[@raboldrt]

I wouldn’t say anything about comparing them to Led Zeppelin, although he sounds alike. I’m believing in the fact of the revival of Real Rock and Roll🤘🏻🔥🍻👍🏻

That organ sounds awesome. Greta Van Fleet is better than Zeppelin ever was songwriting wise... wake up boomers! God Dammit!!

[@lassel1644]

Can´t belive why Eddie Trunk doesn´t like em´

[@higginsreport]

I disagree but I do like GVF....we shall see how it goes as they expand their discography. I remember when everyone was saying Pearl Jam was better than Zeppelin...while Pearl jam is good...not to many people make that claim anymore. Thank for watching!

[@higginsreport]

for the record, I missed being a boomer by one year...hence my youthful appearance.

[@lassel1644]

@@higginsreport Well, for the record your review was great.. i did not mean specifically you.

[@lassel1644]

@@higginsreport Ok i see where you are going. Regarding Pearl Jam in my opinion their songs were not half as great as Greta´s.... note, in my opinion.

[@lassel1644]

Sometimes we just need to stop listen to these guys born in the 50´s telling us whats good Rock´n roll or not. Hendrix died after 3 albums. Ok ! and then what ?

[@wilmamans306]

At least they're not sampling old tunes to death and churning out new songs like canned spam.

[@halesbales1556]

Please react to GVF stardust chords or the barbarians, also weight of dreams guitar solo is so good! Love this whole album, going to see them live in feb, can’t wait

[@reecedavidson2745]

You should pause the video when you wanna talk

[@higginsreport]

lol thx for the tip. I find I lose people the more I talk....gotta keep'em on the hook with some background music!

[@ultimavi1383]

And perhaps a 3rd elephant in the bridge? I hear Kansas...

[@JTHeidrick]

Just a suggestion, don't talk during your reviews while the song is playing. You missed a couple key transition moments because of it....

[@higginsreport]

Thx John...I made that adjust on a few of my subsequent video's...thx for watching!

[@TheDeckerdecker]

While the vocals are the strength they are also the weakness. Can only take so much at a time.

[@longcastle4863]

Actually can't wait for all the comparisons to stop. In fact stopped watching when it became apparent that was all you were going to do.

[@higginsreport]

Sorry to disappoint long castle. Thanks for watching any of it...

[@danielstowe1364]

Only problem I have is if you watch the videos of them they are clearly trying to emulate led zeppelin. With the way he sings, and his gestures. Christ he even went and grabbed the tambourine while they did a big guitar solo. While I was watching them I couldn't think about anything else but this looks just like leds stairway to heaven performance. I like the song but I couldn't watch them live. It's one thing to take from other artists and mish mash and make it your own but I don't care what they say they are at least trying to copycat zeppelins stage presence.

[@higginsreport]

I hear they are trying to distant themselves from Zep on the upcoming Album....We'll see? Thx for watching Daniel!
