They blew up the world with their version of Smooth Criminal 🔥 gotta check that out

[@jonnifarris6989]

May Naya Rivera rest in peace when they did Smooth Criminal with her in Glee ❤

[@TheGoauldApophis]

Yeah. That's the one someone showed to Elton John.

[@stevenbaker107]

Definitely especially when they guest starred on Glee

[@MasterBiffpudwell]

I love the sound of a cello. These two are masters at the cello. The music is awesome in the video but what really cracks me up is the end where the audience is staring at them like they are bat shit crazy. LOL I giggle every time I see it.

[@Divhreaza]

Yeah, sorta like inn "Back to the Future". "Yeah, trust me, your great-grandkids will love it."

[@squiddysquidster802]

I want to be able to play like them… but it’s hard when everybody looks at you like your a fucking lunatic.

[@rickwoodham4570]

The talent of these guys is insane! You can't go wrong watching any of their videos

[@ichmeiner4531]

I showed this to my dad (born 1952, who loves classic rock) without telling him what it is. I must have looked like a Cheshire cat, grinning from ear to ear. As expected, he absolutely loved it and was amazed with the incredible talent. I wish I had recorded his reaction, he was blown away.

[@shivag73]

Probably the same reaction I had when I came across them.

[@1Vmiboy]

I was in the Marines around the time this video came out and was doing security for concerts as a side job. I remember they opened for one of the bands and we all had the same reaction of who the heck are these guys. We were all shocked and awed by the end 🤙🏼

[@SebastianAnklamm]

If you are into this, in the late 90s started the cello quartet Apocalyptica with Metallica cover songs. There are some great videos on KZbin. Nothing Else Matters is a good starting point from their debut album but it is all very well done.

[@kerrijohnson2303]

God I love Apocalyptica!

[@LordRahl1975]

The video of Apocalyptica doing One live with James Hetfield of Metallica is excellent.

[@albertaadams4640]

Loved that cd

[@angelagreen778]

Love the early tracks!

[@Wildcatt79]

Still listen to their first CD in my car! 😂

[@allisoncameron-dicker2737]

These 2 gorgeous young men are from Croatia and used to compete against each other until they joined forces and took the world by storm with their covers of rock and pop as well as the classical music the Cello is known for.. I'm in no way shape or form a musician or expert, but I think the distortion might come from the vibration from "hitting" the Cello with the bow so forcefully.. I hate to think how many bows are damaged and restrung because of a session with these guys.... I saw them on KZbin for the first time because of this cover, but my absolute favourite of their metal covers is the Trooper Overture, (Iron Maiden).. Other "metal" videos they've done are Dream on and Walk this way with Steven Tyler (Aerosmith) Highway to Hell with Steve Vai, (Whitesnake), Sounds like Teen Spirit (Nirvana) & Enter Sandman (Metallica). . Welcome to the jungle (Guns n Roses) Livin on a prayer (Bon Jovi) .They have toured with golden oldie Singer Songwriter Elton John... Appeared at practically every well known venue in the world.... They are just phenomenal They have made the world of rock and pop look again at the classical instrument...Since the duo disbanded they have different lifestyles. I know Sjepan has a solo tour called Rebel with a Cello...

[@fifi23o5]

To be exact, they come from Croatia and Slovenia. Stjepan Hauser is a true Croatian, Luka Šulić is born and raised in Slovenia to a Croatian father and Slovenian mother, so he comes from Slovenia. One most important thing they really have in common: they are incredible musicians with tons of energy.

[@allisoncameron-dicker2737]

@@fifi23o5 I'm happy to be corrected. 😊

[@fifi23o5]

@@allisoncameron-dicker2737 No problem! The only thing that matters is that we all enjoy their music.

[@sunisbest1234]

Oh no! I didn't realise they had disbanded. I was so looking forward to seeing them if they made their way down under again. 🙁😔

[@tarakeegan9479]

Their bows are all frayed and ragged at the end. Like it inspires me to learn the cello now that I know what it’s capable of and not just Yo-Yo Ma classical

[@unpluggedkiwi1063]

They are brilliant musicians, brilliant performers, and also have wicked senses of humour. Was very fortunate to see them in concert several years ago. Not often you see people dancing in the isles to two guys playing cello.

[@tmasessa]

These guys are great. Dive down the rabbit hole.

[@alanwhetstone3922]

Seen them live in Dallas and I have one word WOW

[@erinmontgomery4983]

I would love love to see them live. I absolutely love them.

[@stephanieprice5029]

These guys are KILLER, Sebs! Welcome to their music!

[@bok1080]

These guys were EPIC to see live, had the opportunity to see them live last year at their 3rd last concert (Perth Arena, Western Australia) and it was worth the effort, imagine this 6 minute video, but 90 minutes non-stop, going through a heap of different styles of music and all.

[@patriciasalvesen9844]

Finally! 2Cellos There is much to learn about these early childhood protégé’s. They play many ‘covers’ from across the genre spectrum. “With or Without You”, “Cryin’”, too many to list. I find you and Ali my favorites to ‘reaction’ videos. Please keep 2Cellos at the top of your list; you will find yourselves transported by their music! Nothing like 2Cellos!!

[@chuckchapdelaine6110]

saw them in concert at a winery in WA. BLEW US AWAY! Believe it or not, their concerts have more energy than what you see in the video

[@dylancole1910]

The way they seamlessly transition into the song is iconic.

[@bigglesharrumpher4139]

This is going down in history as best cello for non-cello audience eva!

[@kerrycronin3581]

I have one of their cds and I like having it on in the background during the day.

[@SuperNictastic]

Saw them live in London about 6 years ago. What a concert that was. Just an incredible mix of rock and classical and film stuff. They had a terrific drummer too. Amazing.

[@Xandrosi]

Such outstanding cellists! World class at both classical and rock. They are also amazing at musical arrangement. They have exposed the world to the potential of cello as a modern instrument. If you liked this, watch their renditions of The Trooper, Smooth Criminal, and Where The Streets Have No Name. I've seen them live. A truly fun concert!

[@georgefisher1995]

THAT was a “boat load” of cello-fun! Thanks

[@christysdropbox]

I saw them in person they are phenomenal. These guys are excellent at what they do.

[@wyattgardner3552]

STEVE N SEAGULLS!!!! Check out their cover!

[@DaShap]

I have yet to see a reactor pause and discuss how like the 5 kids in the audience are all smiles and loving it and the adults aren't pleased with their joy as they are stunned. haha

[@tiffanytosh1569]

2Cellos is awesome! Them doing Thunderstruck is seriously awesome!!!

[@donnysmith946]

You should see the video when they walk into a music store that is featuring Steve Vai and they just walk in and start playing.. It;s awesome

[@terrcoUSA]

I’ve been listening to them for years. Always a pleasure with these two string magicians

[@jenniferdick8047]

I have seen them in concert and they are amazing

[@kylesummers1565]

I tripped over this one about 6 years ago! Peace, Love!!

[@missvic659]

2CELLOS thanks you for passing them on to other viewers, as do I!

[@palopinto4065]

While listening to these guys my blood pressure went thru the roof.😵‍💫 Loved it.

[@dpvbischoff]

I love that you are so open and appreciative of such a wide range of music styles: Eddie Van Halen, Home Free, and maniacs like these guys. So much fun. Keep it up.

[@jamescorcoran2273]

These guys are GREAT watch more of them, they do many rock songs

[@clairebear1808]

There are whole show videos and its jaw dropping good.

[@Prozak63]

I was hoping you'd enjoy it. They have several great ones out there. 💯🔥

[@AdmV0rl0n]

They blew my mind. The one that is next level is the trooper. Thats just amazin.

[@janbow5124]

Ha ha ha they are not always nuts. Please listen to this you will love it. HAUSER - Benedictus (by Karl Jenkins) ❤

[@erinmontgomery4983]

Omg I absolutely loooooove 2 Cello!! They are so so beautiful.

[@gboshell68]

Total DOPE! Cello is my favorite classical instrument and Rock is the soundtrack of my coming of age... Win-Win!

[@angelamiller6275]

These guys are AWESOME! You should check out Hauser as well.

[@bethleipert9028]

The bows are shredded lol. This is awesome!!

[@serenaeiler7585]

They first appeared on America s got talent at about age 14 or so

[@dragodrazenovic1064]

They have never been on AGT!

[@Leigh53-k6h]

Incredible, aren't they!!!!! The first time, you can't quite believe what you're hearing and then it's pure joy!

[@threekidzmom04]

These guys are awesome! I love their music!

[@tmkellison4016]

These guys are AWESOME!

[@pamkowaski1608]

I love these guys. They are awesome. They have done so many amazing covers.

[@maryrollins607]

48 seconds in. I am here for this. I just giggled. Seb: don’t know what I’m in for… cello is my favorite classical…. Me: hehehe

[@vickigebbia5524]

Their cover of Mumford & Sons "i Will Wait" is beautiful. The location is Plitvice Lakes National Park in Croatia, an absolutely stunning place full of waterfalls.

[@MajorHattery]

First, enjoyed your reaction as you obviously enjoyed it and had fun with it. It's really hard not to have fun with a 2Cellos song. Second, if you want to see cellos being used in another unusual way check out the band Apocalyptica...a Finnish metal band that got their start covering Metallica songs on cellos. I'll suggest the music video for their song "Path" as a good intro to the band.

[@clairebear1808]

Omg enjoy they’re incredible

[@DiG900]

Absolutely love them.

[@pribilovian4709]

I play bass but always loved the sound of the cello...I was definitely not expecting what these guys put out or what they can do with that thing 🔥

[@kaznatbabs]

Their version of The Trooper is epic as well! Love these guys; they’re SO GOOD!

[@alexn4843]

Seen them a few times in concerts. They are great live. They would start of with some classical songs then some light covers and start to get more and more into rock covers. They would also bring out a drummer (who was fantastic as well). Their bows would get shredded really quick. Liked that fact that the audience would be a big range of fans, from kids to grandparents. I don't think they are tour together any longer though.

[@fredbaldwin3221]

They sure blew my mind when I first heard them

[@freespirit61]

check out the version(highway to hell) at guitar center where Steve Vai joins in on electric...awesome brother!

[@Pahoe77]

They had a whole passel of songs, mostly rock, they do.

[@MrKjelder1]

The AC/DC original is electrifying...love this take of this classic as well..woo hoo!

[@aprilmason5978]

I saw these guys a couple of months ago, I think AC/DC would be proud !!

[@steveeverett1736]

Years ago, on the Ellen deGeneres show, Elton John raved about them. Try Tina Guo as well, she's done stuff with Han Zimmer ie Batman, Kung Fu Panda, LOTR and of course Wonder Woman

[@yo1000i]

I loved this reaction, this guys are amazing, i had the chance to see them live and there s no way back, i m glad you found them! love your reactions keep them coming

[@maryhuhnke4706]

You don't listen to 2cellos you Experience them!!

[@robinhatcher8021]

I loved wa5ch8ng them play Back in Black with electrical cellos. I recommend that one too! ❤😊

[@jaybea365]

I *adore* this version of this song, I also love how shredded their bow's are.

[@rebeccasmith1889]

First saw them on Facebook a few years ago. They amazing

[@gailw415]

I remember these guys from AGT. They were still kids. They did Purple Haze. It was awesome

[@jen7916]

These guys are crazy talented !

[@ffbear2421]

My wife and and I went and watched them live in Colorado at Redrocks. They are even more energetic live and the sound at Redrocks was amazing! True talent and I would go and watch them anytime they are around my area! You have just got a taste of them but they have so many amazing covers and are every bit as amazing live!

[@alanwitty1665]

They're great, I watched them for 4 or 5 years now. Them and Angelina

[@keysersoze9025]

for more great cello check out BREAK OF REALITY covers of Lateralus, Black Hole Sun, B.Y.O.B. and Say It Ain't So

[@steveeverett1736]

Tina Guo also, she does rock and many movie pieces (LOTR, Hans Zimmer etc)

[@janoakley]

Saw them at O2 in London. Absolutely incredible.

[@Sharonmarshall66]

YES. Need to do more!

[@Kati_all_of_the_days]

I think they did Tools Lateralus ? Right .. lol now I gotta double check… I remember homie was getting dwn HARD CORE LOL it was AMAZING!!!!!

[@VPOFIT]

Elton John saw their Smooth Criminal video and had them open for him for many shows. They then exploded and are a unique act that is a must-see...

[@quintondees4501]

The talent is insane

[@jokervienna6433]

Truly brilliant indeed! I watch their performance from time to time. Not to put these two guys in the shadow, but there are more good covers of Thunderstruck out there. AC/DC might have created a Monster! Check out the Finnish band Steve'n'Seagulls cover of it. Pure Finnish sisu. :)

[@joe10852003]

Their playing is impressive. I would never have gotten thunderstruck from that though

[@mogwiawolf4354]

Need to watch their other videos

[@congerthomas1812]

WOW, machines tuned on, Truly next level!!

[@Scuffer00]

If you’re a fan of Cello, you should check out Apocalyptica. They’re Cellists and a drummer from Finland

[@isaackellogg3493]

“I guess you guys aren’t ready for that yet. But your kids are gonna love it.”

[@barbarawalsh4936]

Thanks for the cello, now watch me rock out. These guys are "next freakin' level."💕💕

[@SriHartini-im7cd]

WHAT A GENIUS ...🎉👌👍.

[@t.jordan1794]

What a wild take on AC/DC classic! Love it!

[@lightscameralife232]

Their music video reminds me of when Marty McFly rocks out at the dance, looks out, and everyone just staring at him.

[@Broomrider1492]

These guys are amazing and never get old.

[@user-wv7ui7oi5m]

2cellos live concert. They are amazing ❤

[@user-js9qf2bc1x]

Great stuff, have watched it many times!

[@ArctheDark]

"I can see you guys aren't ready for this yet. But trust us, your great, great, great grandkids are gonna love it."

[@FireHeart2829]

Another group to look at would be the piano guys, they were the gateway to these two for me 😊

[@karendavis2668]

This was great! How many bows do they go through in a live concert?!

[@jogumby]

Amazing in concert!

[@sallyintucson]

There’s a video of Elton John on their website of Elton John talking about when a friend first showed him a video of them. He immediately said he wanted them for a opening act.

[@crystalscolza1663]

So glad you checked these guys out...I wish they would do a tool song lol

[@sanhestar]

2Cellos often tell stories in their music videos: Smooth Criminal, They don't Care about Us; Show must go on; Trooper Overture, Highway to Hell, Whole Lotta Love and many more. Their cover of movie soundtracks in something to watch.

[@jennlee7929]

You are about to go down a really nice and rather interesting rabbit hole with these guys. You really need to check out more of their music and the videos.

[@crmlcd]

You need to down load some of their concerts. Their anniversary concert in Zagreb is outrageous. You need to see their drummer! Try their Pula Concert.

[@ivanamilenkovic9950]

I was at their last concert in Belgrade, they do this live :)

[@joyceetter8643]

Both are classically trained and solo independently with major world symphonies. They met as teens and developed this wild style. The have had world tours as 2 Cellos providing financial security for themselves. Luka Sulic is married with a 4th child on the way. Stepjan Hauser is single.

[@ohryan9872]

This has definitely got "I guess your guys aren't ready for that but your kids are going to love it" energy

[@wadedavis1178]

check out their cover of Highway to Hell, another ACDC cover also features Steve Vai.
