Thank you for providing this beautiful artistic work. I'm in awe of your work, your talent, your humor, and your style. There's no need to listen to anything else again as long as you are around to interpret and provide your metal style. Thank you so much. Best music covers EVER.

unless she wants the child to be like Leo. When I think about it, this verse is customized by Leo, there was a "big ol' band" in the original

[@jamesmccrea4871]

Leo also says "little metal boy can play" instead of 'country boy.'

Yeah he changed it to suit himself. also why is that so horrible? if anything it shows her faith in him and how he can do the damn by himself.

The lyric is "And you will be the leader of a big ol' band", but I guess Rob is in a solo band, hence his change...

[@robertopereira8865]

Leo, I do not know if you will read this, but I need to say. I've always been a classic rock fan of the '60s and' 70s and something of the '80s. I've never been more enthusiastic about heavier rhythms, like metal. After I met your channel and your videos, I began to assimilate the metal better, through the transformations of some songs that I already liked very much. Your job is fantastic. One of the best stuffs I've ever known on the internet. Very respectful. Greetings from a new fan, here in Brazil

[@KurtisDexterWard]

+Just Gofish > Done! We had almost 40°C here ( SE France ) a few weeks ago. The rain came after from NW where I believe Scotland is. Thanks! Because I hate heat and I love rain & storms. ;)

[@KurtisDexterWard]

And as I type on my turn, not 40°C but pretty hot anyway, too hot for me, between 25 and 30 I'd say and I'm almost in my bed. I love my country but it seems I live in the hottest quarter (damn SE quarter) of France. I envy you since I Iove rain especially when I'm going to sleep! A good night to you mister Mac Moracchioli Fan.

[@KurtisDexterWard]

You're right to say apparent about my Scotland knowledge since I don't know so much about your country except I have, since I'm French born and living in France, to look at North-West, more North than West though, in order to allow my vision going in your direction. I went in the Great Britain Kingdom once but it was for school when I was (way) younger (in the 90's) and even, it was in London (Big Ben, Tower Bridge, British Museum, etc etc). I saw Brighton as well but very little although I played Street Fighter 2 for free there, someone forgot his continues or something. But if all this had a benefit, it's about having allowed me to perfect my English language mastering. Out of that, I never came to Scotland to speak properly. I have a brother who went there once. I should ask him how it was. I just know, thanks to photographies, that Scotland has some of the most beautiful landscapes I ever "saw". I'd like to see this with my own eyes. And I know Mac "Something" is VERY usual like Durand is here. I guess that's all... Oh forgot it's often raining in Scotland! The reason why I initiated this conversation. :)
