Paradise By The Dashboard Light - The Band Geeks with John Miceli

[@mizd43]

Perfect rendition of a song paying tribute to Meatloaf. You guys nailed it!

[@C-mereSSBU]

Thank you so much for hitting the high notes on "and God only knows..." It's hard to find anyone who does it right, and I'm one of those people as well who can't do it. As a tenor it upsets me, but this video gives me hope to keep trying.

[@iJillby]

Wow- you all have mind-blowing talent. It's so much fun to hear some of my old time faves- especially by you Richie and Anne Marie et al. Just rockin' HOT.

[@AmirFazadh]

Damn...that was beyond awesome! And you had so much fun doing it...Anne Marie did a great Karla, and Richie, you sounded so much like Meat, how do you do it? Mr. Loaf would be proud!!!

[@Morr1e]

All the musicians are great but the drummer is exceptional in this vid

[@ashleybennett6532]

Always said that meatloaf has one of the best backing bands I’ve seen and Danny and John just prove that! Awesome!

[@nathanwahl9224]

Mostly Todd Rundgren's band plus several others.

[@arjenh7214]

@@nathanwahl9224 Those others being half of Bruce Springsteen's E-Street Band!

[@strangetimes1263]

I gotta tell ya....These videos are absolutely addictive!!!! I have listened to almost nothing else since discovering Band Geeks and Ritchie a month or so back. Is there nothing you guys cant do an excellent job on?? More amazing each time I hear ya. Fast becoming my favorite Band!! Keep up the good work!!! THANK YOU!!!

[@mkempiowa]

These videos are addictive. These guys have serious chops. Awesome!

[@stevenalley9708]

100%

[@officialWWM]

Cant stop watching them, lol.

[@MakinaMotze]

I can't stop. Three hours just today. My third binge in a week

[@sandi21515]

Yes they are addictive. It's 2 am and I can't stop!

[@bigman55434]

You guys (and gal) nailed it! What a fantastic cover! Super tight musically and you looked like you had a ton of fun doing it. One of my favorite covers.

[@markmiller3308]

Meatloaf RIP would love this tribute.

[@pearldrummer4077]

Wow, that was incredible. I'm a drummer and have loved John's playing for years. He makes it look so easy. Great fill at the end by the way. You guys Rock!!!

[@patrickkelly864]

These guys make every song look so damn easy and always sound amazing.

[@alleykattmullins945]

Can't get enough of you guys. She put chills down my arms as soon as she started singing...she has some pipes and would love to hear more of her alone.

[@sandi21515]

You do great justice to this song. It's so enjoyable! 🎵🎤🎧

[@StratmanDarrell]

Great job everyone. You guys are having too much fun! The Meat is smiling from heaven. He was a devoted Christian despite many challenges. (who doesn't) But he's singing with the angels now and probably with some other great artists. (Except perhaps Lennon. He said he didnt believe in heaven.) 😉

[@TruthTime-bs9ni]

Richie Rocks. The white haired keybosrd guy who also plays drums is just AMAZING. Hes always ON TIME. Ann Marie backup vocals are kitschy!

[@tdavey5599]

best cover of this song i have ever heard--and i have heard them all--great job!!!

[@74fabsal]

Love your videos guys - keep them coming please - all the best from here in the UK

[@NanaHuggs]

I absolutely love you guys and girl 🥰

[@bobbyfikesmusicfun]

Amazing as always. You guys never disappoint

[@JasonSpevak]

I was just looking for an awesome cover. Then look at the band members not thinking and I'm like is that Richie singing the male part? It's so good! Of course its Richie! You guys are awesome

[@refisherdesktop]

So I'm sitting here thinking that this is the best rhythm section I've seen on here yet, then I google those guys and figure out why. Y'all are having way too much fun in life. :D

[@vincentjflorio]

**googles** Yeah, gotta say I wasn't expecting that. That's hilarious.

[@elliottreynolds6901]

Doubly blessed

[@solo2r]

That was fun! Thx for cheering us up in 2020!

[@822508]

You just get better! And you're having fun! Thank you.

[@Bard2dbone]

My favorite Ann Marie vocal When she starts really flexing her Ellen Foley/Karla DeVito muscles 'Stop right theeeeeere!'

[@richardhansen157]

This really made me smile today. Thanks for that. Great job!

[@barrytucker1561]

This great. Had the album when it first came out. Our band could never do it like that ...excellent

[@michaeltutnichts-zursache8258]

One of the funniest Dashboard-covers ever! Thanks for sharing it with us!

[@littlebuddyd]

Omg! Love this. You guys rock!

[@RogelioPerea]

That was fun!. Kudos to all involved.

[@ayaydin2297]

Love it, so much fun.

[@douglaslippertindy]

I guess I'm late to the party here....seriously? Where have you guys been all these years when I've been cruising KZbin?

[@andrewp.schubert2417]

Another great performance. Todd & Meat would be proud of you.

[@whkiess]

Soooooo good, just brilliant!

[@viciwaszczenko5375]

Just awesome.Meatball would love it.

[@TheWillypeel]

wow congrats guys , wish I was there with you, ... Awesome

[@matparks9059]

the harmony on the second "i can see paradise" is out of this world amazing. it is very hard to hear it, but man when you really listen to it, it is better than the original. Just a little something that i thought put this version at the very top. thank you

[@stephensmith3033]

Wow bloody wow

[@daleg.9673]

What the hell is wrong with KZbin's algorithms that it took them over 3 years to put you guys in my feed?

[@pulaski1]

Only 3 years? - It's just popped into my queue in 2020, despite having previously seen numerous other Band Geek vids. Today YT appears to think that I want to see covers of PBTDBL - I watched one this morning, and now YT has pointed two more in my direction today.

[@AlwinW]

Awesome!!! Verry well played en vocal Perfect. Assembly very beautiful. Wunderfull :-)))

[@iJillby]

Great song- sounds just like MEATLOAF!!! ;) Richie do you do sound effects in addition to being able to sound like every rock star in the World?

[@alexpalmer99]

This is the best song ever

[@bassesfour]

Sooooo,,, good,,, well impressed guys, great work all round.

[@greymick]

Happiest drummer ever!

[@pattyhanlon4049]

Go Miceli! Fantastic!

[@arsxnavlt]

Sickest cover I've seen of this song

[@MartinTSmith]

Well done! You guys make it look easy and fun... And we all know better (at least about the easy part....) Props!!!!

[@uzipoputzi1747]

Harte Nummer!... gut gespielt!

[@Jdizzle6969]

This is great! But I spy some overdubbed guitar parts…. And keyboards too lol. ;) regardless… crazy difficult tune, y’all nailed it! Love the channel!

[@c0wb0yTV]

so well done in every way

[@jimssurvival4994]

Good job everyone 👏

[@zephead64]

Freakin great!!

[@sixsentsoldiers]

Great track. Great vibe. YEAH

[@corybangerter5845]

Anne Marie's vocals are very reminiscent of Karla Devito (the original female lead). I'd have to say that Anne Marie has a slightly better range than Devito with the latter a stronger alto singer. These guys just hit on all cylinders. PLEASE SOMEONE SIGN THIS BAND TO A CONTRACT!

[@tanstaafl2]

Actually, the original female lead was Ellen Foley. Karla Devito is in the video and was in the touring band.

[@robharry4260]

Yup. That's right. Ellen Foley sung on the album only. She was not in the video nor did she tour with Meatloaf. Ellen released some albums of her own back in the day. She had a fantastic voice.

[@timothymetzinger3947]

She was also on Night Court! And I think she was on Joe Jackson's "Body and Soul" Album. Very unique voice. This is a GREAT version of this track.

[@MalEvansUSA]

Cory bangerter its Ellen foley. Youse a Fucking moron

[@markallen2947]

I never thought anyone could do this better than Marvin Aday and Karla DeVito...I stand corrected! WOW

[@Anonymous-mm4mx]

Love Animal chilling at the bass drum

[@SteveInQLD007]

Awesome and I cant stop watching all their videos!!! \m/

[@jhill74893]

brilliant and you made it look easy. Great drumming

[@sandler20uk]

Loved this!!!!

[@delano62]

The answer? Yeah, I love her.

[@mattmallecoccio8378]

Excellent Phil Rizzuto impression

[@davidwill7183]

So good... amazing!

[@michaelkaus8128]

Richie- you are LUCKY man!! Just sayin'!!!

[@michaeloconnelldrums7890]

I absolutely love that ye even did the baseball commentary!

[@trailrunner919]

I can't believe there hasn't been any comments about the animal doll laying in front of the drum kit..nice touch LOL!!!

[@turkwendell6904]

Great job!

[@franganghi]

What did i just see? Amazing

[@emvdhout]

High speed performance, but surely enjoyable

[@alesandrobail1060]

Awesome!

[@tommymangan2675]

[@samsquanch67]

[@chocloditelensman]

Love it !!!

[@daitos1955]

Braaaavo guys, that was awesome!

[@sinjon]

Omg this is fantastic!!

[@autoazure]

Brilliant! STOP RIGHT NOW! Mega channel, love it!

[@WickedMakee]

Band Geeks Rock!!!!!!!!!

[@kutzbill]

Actually Ellen Foley did the vocals on the record, Karla did the vocals on the first tour. From a dyed in the wool Meatloaf fan, you all did a great job. Lots of talent.

[@garygarner6964]

Keep wanting more....you guys sure know how to entertain

[@labogne1928]

Talented seasoned pros.

[@stevewilliams3850]

Band Geek Podcast : This is cute. This is really cute. I love your cover of this timeless, immortal classic. Lately, I've been seeing on KZbin, young people covering songs a lot older than the people covering the songs. What is it? Does the music today really suck that bad?

[@robertortega8093]

Sure Meatloaf enjoyed the tune. Especially comments not in song. Great job Band Geek.

[@sinksks]

really good!

[@garygarner6964]

great job all around the guitar chord progression alone makes it a tough cover for a lot of people

[@FOO261]

Thumbs up! Awesome! Better ‘n Meatloaf!!

[@dominichayes3515]

OMG. Ann Marie!

[@shane1v]

Excellent rendition! Now I NEED you to do Bat....Out Of Hell. Please.
