Steve'n'Seagulls - The Pretender // Off The Road Sessions

[@alexzingo6952]

I’m from Finland, too. I don’t know what to say. I been watching their videos for some time now. They are country boys I understand. They are performing in heir farm work clothes. But without superstar image, they are performing in US, maybe other countries, too. They are very good with their instruments. They are good example, how to use what you have in your hands to get ahead of life. This encourage those, who are other ordinary folks, not to look what you have not, but to use and enjoy what you have. These guys are great. They are what they are. Let us all be what we are made for and entourage each others in these hard times.

[@samwiskee4545]

STEVEN N SEAGULLS are one of the best bands I have ever heard.

[@billlearmouth7345]

They are brilliant live and really nice fella's to talk to

[@thechaosengine3020]

After discovering these guys I have reappraised every aspect of my life and the direction it was taking. I am now a better and happier human.

[@RobRobson]

The ChaosEngine exactly this!

[@Moonmaedyn]

Good for YOU! Life is all about reassessing ourselves. Go forth and be happy.

[@AnnaG-vu9cy]

You've just put the right words on what are my feelings about their music. Thanks and go on doing well

[@Bojipes]

Me too......at the end of 2021

[@lbowsk]

There's a whole lot wrong with music these days. These guys are a wonderful exception.

[@lbowsk]

@G Man Then how come they're never on the radio or any other mainstream music feed? How come when I bring them up NO ONE knows who the hell they are? The Foo Fighters version has over 2 million thumbs up. This one? 11,000. Huge disparity.

[@samshow8462]

@@lbowsk there are things called niches, some genres of musics are just more in demand than others,its how its always worked, not just music "these days."

[@lbowsk]

@@samshow8462 I'm 64 and have been listening to niche music since the 6th grade. Pretty will versed in that. I am allowed to have my opinion. There's a whole lot wrong with music these days. These guys are a wonderful exception.

[@samshow8462]

@@lbowsk why do you think theres alot wrong with music these days?

[@ShawnColloton]

Narrator at the beginning for the win. That was awesome!

[@karhymanis9789]

i am a million years old. i was bob dylan's first fan. this is the best music ever.

[@disturbedpyro4511]

I absolutely love this band! So good! I sent The Trooper to my dad, who usually doesn’t listen to more than what I send him. But about a day or 2 later he texted me and said” dude I love Steve N Seagulls!” I thought he was just bullshiting me because he doesn’t usually like this type of music but then he said “ I love how the big guy always comes in last or is late” that’s when I knew he truly listened to a good amount of their songs. Now every time I play them he says “ thank you for introducing me to them!”

[@onehouse_crowley4597]

Still among my favorite covers of any Foo Fighters song. I come back to watch/listen every few months. I still laugh at the host's words at the beginning. Erinomainen!

[@northpoleac]

It is amazing. It is amazing that every song they decide to remake turns out to be better and more beautiful, I would say with all my respects to the original creators than the original songs. It is ART in its most beautiful meaning.

[@yiftachgebel]

Gotta love that Behemoth playing this tiny-ass Mandoline looking all badass and serious

[@TheDrumkid92]

I think his neon tape was a reference to twenty one pilots' logo? Not sure...

[@lonnyfry4644]

yiftachgebel love it

[@jettzbigdaddy3055]

Its like a miniature modified 'Balalaika/Mandolin' in one instrument ...they are in Finland. The Finnish people are known for refining Russian made weapons (Sako, the world's most prestigious rifle manufacturer. Tikka bolt action rifles and the Military Valmet its a AK47 Masterpiece of Refinement & Craftsmanship) But anyway...Big Dude Shreds on that little 8 string mandolin . Banjo player too. He makes that banjo sound like a Washburne. LOL . .

[@Moonmaedyn]

That, right there, is some true-a$$ talent--Playing the mandolin and "looking all badass and serious." Yep yep yep

[@kst357]

They showed one angle where you could see the sore spots & calluses on his fingertips. He's a behemoth & likes to show up late but he definitely puts in the work.

[@cafecaram4747]

Ich liebe wie Thielmann die Band einführt, köstlich. Und der Sound is einfach ein wunderschönes Geschenk für die tagesgemarterten Ohren des Alltagsradiohöhrers.

[@dennislindqvist8443]

That drum part in the end was epic! With small means, he made it sound big. He's also a great singer.

[@friedaf1123]

So underrated. What an intro or riff or whatever it is. What a take. I never heard the original song and won't ever listen to it again, it's faceless. But this - i have no words. Thank you so much, you help to bear with this effing life

[@yostnegjessiacuj9918]

STEVEN N SEAGULLS are one of the best bands I have ever heard. Perfect as always! Make us proud. Maybe next "Queens Of The Stone Age - No One Knows" i am a million years old. i was bob dylan's first fan. this is the best music ever.

[@Curiousobsev]

What a great, original and outstanding band 👌🤩

[@stu9stu9stu]

I love this version! It's so good, Dave Grohl must have heard this by now and I'd bet a pony he'd love it too. Good job.

[@darken69]

These are very multi talented Scandinavian boys. The mountain plays several instruments, everyone that sings has an awesome voice. I have all their cds after hearing just this and "ghost town" I had to get them. 10 years ago I wouldn't give these guys a second glance because I didn't have a wide eclectic taste in music then as I have now. Because of these guys I listen to a lot of bluegrass and country too. Keep up the awesome work fellas! Wish for a meet and greet **fingers crossed** that would be so awesome.

[@lembittork5421]

It's incredible, I can listen to these guys over and over again... Proving once again: keep it simple, bring out of it what you genuinely have... like architecture.

[@chrissandoval7675]

never would've guessed one of the best american bluegrass bands was from finland. much respect sirs. also, probably the best cover band ever.

[@shadowjack8]

There is an emotion in this music that transcends all borders. Please bring us more.

[@tclodfelter8789]

It's not about a person...it's about the MUSIC...ALWAYS!! Phenomenal !!

[@somopartou]

These guys put on a hell of a show and are one of the best live shows I've seen. Talented group of guys!

[@WestQuinte]

That drummer is one hell of a rockstar, I wish I could jam with him.

[@drot13]

I can't stop listening this song... First I listened it here, than I bought it (all album), so I'm listening it on my mobile, but every day I come here 2-3 times... I can't help myself...

[@UndineDownie]

...and the introduction: simply adorable tongue-in-cheek!

[@federicopamparatov8805]

Iam amazed !!! Everybody sings and sings very well. Great band. Very good musicians.

[@afernandezaf55af]

This had an odd and incredible emotion too it. Especially in that last bit. Really well done.

[@timostaub2789]

great stuff ... These guys are excellent musicians and have a good portion of humor

[@martinclayton7260]

I love this band, and this is their best track yet!

[@hinesfigher6093]

I'll say it again. They are so so so tight..good job men

[@NewTrollVideos]

My new favorite cover song from my favorite cover band.

[@007Ruffnec]

I Love these guys. I hope they go on tour in America.

[@tonymorton9953]

They've been there a couple of times now drawing huge crowds!

[@darken69]

I can't get enough of these dudes. Very talented. I bought all their CDs too. More Foo Fighters? More Iron Maiden? Even their own music kicks ass. Love 'em!!

[@KappaDaKappa]

When the drummer sings, the whole band comes together.

[@venndiagram5981]

This was a brilliant version of a modern classic rock song. Very, very good job, lads !!

[@brunogasparotto4284]

SO MUCH TALENT

[@bsmiley6918]

top notch old boys. top notch.

[@THX--nn5bu]

Weil ich bin eine Ami und ich lerne Deutsch, ich habe fast alles verstanden was der man gesagt hat. but anyway These fine young gentlemen from Finland are talented beyond belief. They have displayed our Folk Music what it used to be.

[@alexmcintyre4504]

As a Foo Fighters fan, this is an awesome cover!!!

[@kimhowells9622]

Had the great pleasure to see these guys live in Cardiff just before Christmas and loved every minute. I even bought a Hermann hat (bango player) along with 2 of their CD's. If you get a chance to see them go for It, you won't be disappointed. I believe they're currently touring the USA. Looking forward to your next release guys x

[@darrylpellas4277]

Best Version..............should release this as single!

[@almothemarmot]

I love the story telling part of the german guy in the beginning. If you speak german its even funnier because of the choice of words that guy in the cheap tuxedo is making :D

[@almothemarmot]

Its basically good bantz

[@thegigantico]

JA JA GUT JA

[@wirelesmike73]

Because I don't, I had to use the subtitles to understand but, Damn... That had me rollin'.

[@mcstaal]

But Finland is not part of Skandinavia! what an ungerman mistake to make.

[@ai4px]

I was just in Tampere (eating mustamakkara and drinking cheap salmiakki), then visited some friends in Germany. I was searching for S&S songs to show them and this jewel popped up with the Deutsch intro... sehr lustig.

[@delfinnixehoppla4089]

Garantiert schalte ich nicht ab , die Jungs können mehr !!! Ich liebe alle von ihnen ,alle sind einmalig und das machts aus!! Jeder von denenen hat 10mal mehr mucke im blut !! Und die die die Scharts bestimmen können es nicht besser!

Oh hell yeah! Thumbs up for this. Let's add some more Grohl stuff: Nirvana. Like, hmm... Heart Shaped Box? Lithium would be great too.
