One of the great things about Leo videos is with the outros, you usually* get two songs for the click of one! And they both rock! *When he does a tribute video to an artist who has recently passed, he forgoes the outro and self-advertising. Very respectful and classy.

Awesome!!! Believe it or not I had a little something to do with getting them to Colab. I am a big fan of both of these great musicians . On Twitter Violet responded to me about something I had said about Leo. Saying she would love to do a colab with him. So I pounded Leo’s Twitter and KZbin even in Norwegian language telling him she wanted to do a colab with him.

I would like to say first off that this was an awesome reaction to this song. I have been a huge fan of Leo for the past few years. I used to listen to Roxette back in the 90s. When I got the notification that Leo was doing this song I never clicked a video so fast. This cover made this grown man cry like a baby because of what song it is, and Leo was playing it. But, it also made me laugh at the same time, because of how goofy Leo is, and I love him for it. Leo is one of those guys that I would love to hang out with for just a day, and he would have me rolling with laughter, and he seems like a genuinely nice guy. One last thing I would like to say is that you made me want to go back and listen to the original song by Roxette.

Her friend, who she has known since the early 70s and who never brags, suddenly says "I wrote this song!" He is an old friend and member of Roxette and the earlier band Gyllene Tider. He's this shy guy who never says a word but he knows how to write a pop song.

Hi. I am new to your channel. I am one of those who requested that Violet try to set up a collab with Leo, cos he is amazing, she is amazing, their collab shud be freakin' awesome! I wasn't wrong!! (I have also requested the same from Halocene and First To Eleven, and probably from Lauren Babic as well. If you haven't reviewed any of their work as yet, you should check them out. Also, check out Andrei Cerbu's Garage, Andrei has like 3 bands, you can find all their work under this umbrella channel. They are also amazing!). This was a great song back in the day, most def! I never felt it as much as you did though. Seems like it was a semi-religious experience for you. No problem though, as you said, we all have those songs. Anyway, awesome song from Leo and Violet, as I expected! Love, love, love the humour in it as well! His outro could also be fleshed out into a song all its own as well, did you check it out? Anyway, this one gets5/5 horns from me! 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
