Metal Dude * Musician (REACTION) - 2CELLOS - Thunderstruck [LIVE] - (THIS WAS EPIC!!!)

[@WNYretiree]

These guys! They always charge me up. What talent, and what showmanship! They know how to keep a crowd absolutely enthralled.

[@BemusingBill]

I agree! So much energy there!

[@ChrisJones-we4in]

2Cellos are amazing. They are from Croatia and they have a huge back catalogue of songs and albums after more than a decade together (classical as well as plenty of iconic pop/rock covers such as this). They sadly recently decided to split to go their separate ways but they have left a lot behind for us to enjoy.

[@kerrismith5986]

Are the boys brothers? I have read elsewhere that they are just friends.

[@GrandmasGotGraceLW]

@@kerrismith5986 Friends: Luka Šulić and Stjepan Hauser

[@BemusingBill]

They are amazing! Too bad they decided to split up, but that's what happens sometimes. No idea they're from Croatia. Very cool!! I think I'll have to check out some more goodies from them. Thank you!

[@tihomirrasperic]

@@kerrismith5986 two friends and two rivals and every song from the repertoire is a battle between the two who will be better, gentler or stronger They are currently separated Luka enjoys being at home with small children, while Stjepan goes around the world doing a mega star tour

This was a great reaction to my favorite live performance.👍 I am a big fan of Stjepan Hauser (guy in red shirt) and was very excited when he met up with Dimash at Christmas. They were both judging the Virtuoso Young Performers in Hungary. They did a rendition of Ave Maria together but I am not conviced that it was 💯% live. I think Dimash was singing to a back track.🙄 There is a cute video of all the famous people hobnobbing but Dimash is checking out Hauser's Cello.🤭😅 Anyway, when Dimash and Placido Domingo do a duet together, you can see Hauser on the judging panel. Hauser also recently hooked up with the incredible Lara Fabian but sadly no duet as it was simply 2 world famous artists crossing paths while on tours. Hopefully they will team up in the future. Sadly Luka Šulić and Stjepan Hauser have both gone solo. Anyway thank you for featuring 2 Cellos on your channel. 🥰🥰Hugs from a Canadian Dear🇨🇦

[@BemusingBill]

Thank you for checking it out and for the great info! Of course he's checking out the cello! I certainly would be, too. I did hear that they had gone their separate ways. I would love to do more but apparently, their management company or label makes it hard on reactors to post videos. I appreciate you, my dear friend! 🤘❤️🤘

[@GrandmasGotGraceLW]

I was wondering whether or not you had heard them play, before. Their stuff is SO fantastic. I LOVE cello music in the first place. With my mom playing violin from the time she was five years old, whenever she would put together a band concert in Old Valdez, while I was growing up, there was ONE guy who played both cello and string bass...SO FANTASTIC on either one, and he could do really QUICK changes back and forth. He would have LOVED being able to have a looper, so he could do both at once, I'm sure! As I grew up singing in choirs, etc., I was told over and over and over again that my whistling sounds like a violin playing, and my low soprano or high alto singing voice sounds like a cello playing, which is not surprising, given my mom's constant practicing and playing. When I lived in Washington State, where I was a church secretary for 10 years, I helped with and sang in the small choir. Once a year, we were blessed to have a local couple come and join us for a special concert (not seasonal...just when they had time), and the husband always brought along some specially-chosen song to which he wanted me to solo, because he wanted to produce the blend that he always loved so much (as did I). That was such HUGE fun! As I just finished typing that line, I heard you mention the "sound of a human voice" thing, about cellos. It's ABSOLUTELY true, but not ALL voices will blend well. It's LOADS of fun to sing with one, when you CAN create that blend. I miss those days tremendously!!! I'm so happy that you like this song done by the guys! GO, BILL!!! 😀

[@BemusingBill]

A whistle that sounds like a violin! That's unique, I believe. I think that's awesome! Thank you for confirming what I thought I read about the cello sounding like a human voice . It makes sense to me, really. I want to check out more and was just told they cover The Trooper so that will likely be next. Thank you! ❤️❤️

[@umarae27]

Repeat worthy! Love this!! I never thought I'd see the day that someone else would bump Steve N Seagulls rendition to 2nd place on my Thunderstruck favorites list. Fire!!!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@BemusingBill]

Yes, indeed! I actually just filmed that SNS song, so check back my friend!

[@umarae27]

@@BemusingBill right on & will do!!!

[@nikomangelmann6054]

once i visited pula for vacation and ended up listen to a stjepan hauser (the one half of 2cellos) concert just because my airbnb was 100m away from the pula arena. most of the concert i was sitting in an cafe next to the arena had the full sound with only paying for drinks. back in the airbnb the sound was still good

[@GrandmasGotGraceLW]

Oh, I'll bet! WHAT A TREAT!!! 😀

[@BemusingBill]

That's a nice perk!! ❤️

[@robertrauter8459]

it is in the city where it all started,where they learned how to play as kids,Zagreb Croatia

[@VelouriaLaRue]

Wow!!! Love it. You've probably already heard of them, but if not... check out Apocolyptica & Rasputina. Happy Wednesday❣️

[@BemusingBill]

I'm a little familiar with Apocalyptica because of their work with Metallica. I've never heard of Rasputina! Sounds like another one to check out. Have a happy Wednesday, my friend! ❤️

[@Dana.C.Hazelwood]

Thank you for exposing me to new musicians! I’ll have to check them out. Also, Dan Vasc did Thunderstruck when he was with Orien’s Reign. I really enjoy that version as well.

[@BemusingBill]

You're very welcome! I'm glad you're on this journey with me. So many amazing artists and bands I've come across. I should have expected Dan to cover Thunderstruck! That must be awesome. ON THE LIST!! Thank you, my friend!

[@BemusingBill]

Thank you, my friend! I appreciate the recommendations. It saddens me they are longer together so now we must enjoy the gifts they gave us!

[@dawnpatterson8708]

Good morning Bill. Big smiles when I saw you were doing this one. They are incredible. You have to see them do The Trooper by Iron Maiden. My husband is a huge fan and he says that it's really hard to hear the difference. I think that you would love it. Have a wonderful day and tell Nancy I say hi. ❤🤗❤

[@BemusingBill]

Good morning Dawn! I absolutely loved this. I'll tell ya something strange- this is the first video I posted that is restricted in some countries. Weird, right? Oh my, oh my! The Trooper!! Absolutely must check that out! Thank you! I'll be sure to tell Nancy! have a wonderful day, my friend!!!❤️❤️

[@charlesbouthillier7216]

Your reaction was spot on my friend. Thank you , if I may have you heard of a young singer called Angelina Jordan. If you haven't then check her cover of " I Put A Spell on You" you will be pleasantly surprised.

[@BemusingBill]

Thank you, my friend! I haven't heard of her but I'll look into her work.

[@ttrocks5985]

The drummer is Dusan Kranjc. Check out his performance at the beginning of 2Cellos performance of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" live at the Sydney Opera House. You'll thank me later. :)

[@BemusingBill]

I'll thank you in advance! 🤘🤘❤❤🤘🤘

[@user-mq9fh6cz7i]

Check their "The Trooper Overture", iron maiden cover - the Official Music Video version. Even if you decide there aren't enough 'likes' on this post to do more reactions of 2 Cellos i think you should watch it on your own at least. You'll love it. They stopped performing together years ago so all their YT videos are old... but still amazing🖤

[@eaven7786]

Their last album was released in the fall of 2021, and their farewell world tour lasted the whole of 2022, finishing in New Zealand.

[@BemusingBill]

Thank you! 🤘🤘❤❤🤘🤘
