Hoobastank - The Reason (IMY2 Cover)

[@JMM440xi]

You guys pick great songs to cover. This particular song is an underrated gem. Kudos to you and the band for a great job.

[@alexkim9933]

It's for sure a gem, but I am not sure if I agree with the underrated part, this song was so popular lol

[@JMM440xi]

@@alexkim9933 It was popular in 2004 and 2005, and somewhat afterwards. But when I say underrated, it’s was number 894 on Billboards top1000 songs that at one time were in the top 100 on their charts and Rolling Stone never listed it as a top 500 song of all time. My opinion is that it deserves a higher listing than what it received. Particularly looking at the song some 20 years after it’s release and it timeless meaning. I was happy to see this band cover the song with excellence. lol.

Blue hair ... stunning beauty .... the voice of an angel

[@-Levon_73]

Из России с любовью к вашей группе. Прекрасная , волшебная и умопомрачительная исполнительница . Голубоглазая и скромная , талант так и пышет из твоих уст..... Я просто балдею и с ума схожу от ангельского голоса великолепной артистки. Концерты нужно выпускать на радость народу и показывать свой талант на обозрение всем , всему Миру...... Я влюблен и счастлив , что ты есть на этом свете !

[@Porkitz]

Good old days. This song made me remember playing Diablo 2 while listening to this song😊

[@shybard]

Wow. A's voice is absolutely perfect for this song.

[@robertsouth6971]

She plays her instrument very well. Bravo.

[@samandjennysambrook]

My wife and I experienced a difficult time some years ago,and this song used to make us cry so easily... This version is nothing short of stunning guys,you have a beautiful voice my dear... thanks for posting and god bless you all.💞🎶🎤🎸✅👍

[@dorseyblack9833]

Couldn't ask for a better tune for Imy2. Vocally and instrumentally it's perfectly suited for their style!

[@luisalbornoz1032]

I don't know how you guys do it... It's like you pick the songs out of my life's favorite playlist and make it better with the IMY2 touch. Great song and felt interpretation!

[@TheDexter33]

Oh yeah, Best cover. I love Hoobastank.

[@laurenschenck5355]

ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT Annalise!💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

[@unclemike84]

Best. Music. Ever.

[@tombstone2826]

Lord have mercy ! You have the most beautiful voice ! Love your music !

[@Capricorn_IV]

Amazing hairstyle!

[@westernwanderer8397]

This has always been a favorite song of mine. Can make you feel down on yourself when reflecting on how you could have been a better person in the past. But can also make you want to do better for the ones you love. Ironically, this song came on the radio on my way to work this morning. Beautiful cover, guys.

[@johnnymos]

nothing to add here, totally agreed 😊

[@iceicebaby8469]

Yeah, it's so beautifull. Her voice is incredible.

[@sandeepbhat1412]

the best part i felt about her is that she "feels" the song , doesn't merely "sing" , her supporting artistes too are very very good :)

[@Thehippiecommune]

My reason is for all of you. Thank you for reminding me.

[@paintboy2]

Annalise, you and the guys really shine on this one. It’s one of my favorite songs of all time and y’all aced it. Thank you for another great cover. 💙💙💙

[@roquefagundes5630]

And I simply adore it.

[@pinobluevogel6458]

Love the original. This is a slightly cleaner version of the song and its great to see Annalise so seemingly easy hit all the notes to perfection. The musical arrangement is also supersolid, complete with guitar and backingvocals. A quality job by a quality band. Thanks for posting!

[@matthewsikorski4627]

I have always loved this song. Really loved your vocal harmonies. Top 5 maybe top 2 of all of your covers that I have seen.

[@pinobluevogel6458]

They correctly realized that this song relies on its backing vocals for the chorus to make it more impactful, harmonic and beautiful. And who other than Annalise to sing the best backing vocals for her own song. A well produced and crucial part of this cover!

[@Cinnder]

The sounds the 3 of you make gel just perfectly here!

[@secretsquirrel4642]

Another *Flawless* production - thank you A, the guys and the behind the scene folks… The internet is forever and when it comes to IMY2 - the pleasure is all ours, your audience… 🙏✌️👍✅🙏

[@JohnHavord]

Excellent song choice with flawless performance. Love it.

[@alejandronunez3544]

Clap! Clap! Clap!

[@CaioBittencourtbfr]

Wowww 🤩

[@dwilson284]

Oof! Goose bumps. Great work.

[@TheRealGuardian]

Well imy2, you’re no longer 100% with me. You’re 110%. You always take your covers to another level 💙 😎 P.S. Sweet shirt Annalise!

[@sjs265]

The first. One of my fav tunes growing up. Thank you.

[@oneplanetonespecies]

Never get tired of your sweet voice

[@ricelaker]

You make other's songs your own. I feel things I have not felt in decades when I listen to your music because the reason is you.

[@iceicebaby8469]

I was waiting for a good female cover of this song. I love this song so much as it means a lot to me, your voice made me emotional. Thank you again for blessing us with your lovely voice, you're the best. I'll make sure to spread this channel to my friends

[@stannonis8294]

Love the band , love the female lead. Lovely voice. I could sit and watch a live performance everyday.

[@eduardoromero9611]

Excelente!!! Simplemente excelente!!!! Los felicito chicos, un nuevo gran trabajo. Saludos desde Argentina.

[@sybilcross323]

You didn’t screw up my favorite song like so many others have! Great job. I really enjoy listening to you. 💜💜💜

[@johnnymos]

Very powerful song when it comes to self reflection on how we treat each other and how we could treat each other. Bad behavior is prior to regret and self reflection. Very good version of yours, i love it. Greetings from Germany. 😊

[@lucianafrancisco2698]

Som e voz de alta qualidade! Ouvindo bem alto. Amei

[@michaelligue3842]

Perfection , as if we would hear anything other than perfection .

[@luisbriceno4347]

Wonderful performance guys. Unforgettable song. Excellent cover

[@david.j9.rabbithole808]

Very nice. Added to my playlist.

[@luigibianconi8498]

Always great!! Thank you always...😊😊😊

[@deanhodsfry5019]

This song is so underrated but you brought it back you guys did this song justice. Great vocals as always. You three are my newest favourite band from Oxfordshire Uk

[@russpendergraft5057]

Wow! Nice voice and vocals in this young woman! Good band, good clean sound! Well done!

[@daxmorgan]

Wow, this is one of my all time favorite songs. I am simply blown away. I am always impressed by you guys, but hearing those angelic vocals on a song I blare every time I hear it is just astounding. Bravo, guys. Bravo!

[@mickjones2871]

Love that song!! Thank you. Love,!!❤

[@scalvarese1]

Such an amazing cover. Thank you for creating such beauty ❤🙏🤗

[@christinafast4459]

WOW! I love this song

[@mcdon1000]

Wow! What can I say? YOU NAILED IT! Annalise awesome. Boys you were great. However, there were a couple of places where the engineering needed a slight volume adjustment because the backing drowned out the vocal. Minor though. Over all 110%. Love it. Love it. Love it.👏

[@ChadPrestonOfficialThree]

The drummer and backup singer(s) are awesome!

[@gregsonnleitner6250]

Your best vocal of all the covers you've done, lead and harmony.

[@davidgilpin5200]

Annalise - terrific lead AND voice over work! Amazing harmonies... "The boys" rock, as usual. Mike - GREAT work on those signature open licks. Cal - great guitar and bass work, and I assume synth programming as well... Very "clean" recording and mix, nice EQ. Has it been 20 years since this came out? Where did those years go?

[@alinesouzacanticos6222]

O melhor de todos os covers!❤❤❤❤

[@mrfreckles9]

The acoustics in that room are phenomenal. And that mic is fire especially with no pop filter

[@bradbrening3957]

This is right up there with your cover of Radiohead "Creep" as one of the best. Great job!

[@michaelstaunton1632]

Just brilliant 🎵👌👌👌

[@tjj4lab]

The best cover I've heard one of my fav songs

[@manishmaharjan2003]

Lots of love from Nepal

[@michaelgetc6545]

Я тоже русскоязычный, но из Канады, и ваша группа like a breath of fresh air.

[@roselove1563]

YOU ABSOLUTELY SLAYED THIS SONG MY GOSH!!! Also that hairstyle is so pretty 💙

[@Jotunn2348]

That song carries so many memories. Thanks for covering this wonderful piece of music history.

[@sigerlion8608]

Dang, you guys cover a lot of my fav songs. From Fleetwood Mac, to Paramore, to Natalie Imbruglia, to Hoobastank. 90s and early 2000s galore! You have a new fan and sub!

[@just1mansopinion]

You ARE the reason A!!😃😛😍❤

[@marcalfe1033]

Another great cover! Looking forward to hearing your new song this evening too! Also, I agree your shirt is pretty sweet Annalise! Bye the way, I also LOVE how animated you get when you sing Annalise! I'm Italian and talk with my hands a lot, so I can appreciate that, lol! Take care! Have a great weekend!

[@michelgagne8264]

J' adore votre style et magnifique voix..👌

[@Gloubi06]

Good one! The song suits you. This is a perfect match with your voice and style. Thanks for my ears!!!

[@stantristan7595]

Freakin awesome. Thank you so much for sharing your talent. Keep up the great stuff y'all!!

[@Stars333Bright]

Wow. This sounded like a sincere apology from my first wife. Nice song and a great delivery from three great talents. PB

[@itsrodiggityyo9946]

Omg, I've always loved this song, you guys made an incredible cover!! Thank you, I love this!!!

[@thebearcat8512]

INSANE!!! LOVE IT DO MUCH🎉 MUSIC IS ALWAYS SO PERFECT...BUT THE VOCALS, INSANE...YOU CARRIED THOSE NOTES SO GOOD, 💯 PERFECTION 🌹🤘🤘😘

[@paulbrooke3838]

Another fantastic cover done with sensitivity to the original, but with your own spin. You guys never fail to impress. Bravo.

[@NotAsTraceable]

I won't rest until this woman is my wife. That song is a bop. Great job kids.

[@laurenschenck5355]

WHOOP WHOOP rocked this cover! 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙

Preciosa voz, excelente interpretación.

[@grunff]

Beautiful cover! Great song choice, it's much underappreciated.

[@folafola007]

One of the Greatest tune of all time.. With deepest meanings. And you guys absolutely deliver perfectly 👌👌👌. The Reason I am listening from the UK 🇬🇧 😊

[@rodrigomiceli3184]

[@discr1709]

Beautiful song, wonderfully performed. The original Hoobastank video is pretty cool, too.

[@bohaggarddaniels9623]

Good job on this song. I love your blue hair cool looking

[@bryandavis001]

Very cool. I have been singing this song for days and didn't know why. But you helped me close the loop. Now I am singing the closing credits song to Portal 2

[@podcovercast]

Wow! Perfect!

[@lcann251]

Possibly the best cover you guys have ever done IMO. Absolutely love it. I do wish however that you had someone to do backup with you rather than having to mix your own backup vocals in. Still an epic performance. Bravo

[@alewis8765]

My favorite Hoobastank song, and you all rocked it!

[@LyndazzaNguyen]

I’m so in love with your voice 👍🏼🥰 and the whole band’s performance. Thank you for your amazing talents 💜

[@Fabiimop]

increible version la amo

[@haosingson4775]

My wife and i had to go through an unfortunate miscarriage after almost 5 months..... listening to this song i already heard more than 10 years ago is like " this song was especially made for me....... especially the second para....... anyways thank you guys for yet another beautiful cover ......... love and regards to you all.

[@stevenhall4460]

Took me about 7 seconds to subscribe after seeing this on my youtube suggestions one of my favorite songs ever and a great cover

[@darellnewsome4459]

A great rendition! Thank you 😊

[@Strange-qq4qw]

WOW! Stunning. Annalise has an amazing voice. Best in music.

[@roberth8198]

The Reason for my smile is IMY2. Happy Friday Cal, Mike and Annalise.

[@Emperorvalse]

Another great performance 👏. This one seems quite challenging to get right and IMY2 rose to the challenge.

[@ageingviking5587]

That was awesome! Thank you !

[@dreamingofadventures8110]

Beautiful song sung with passion and heart

[@rydfree]

Thanks for this.

[@TheNarrowGateOfJesus]

Instant goosebumps during the chorus. You took me back to 2004 when I first heard this song. Amazing cover.

[@meanredspider]

Another great cover of another great song
