This feels like it should be playing over the credits to some badass, crowd-pleasing, full-of-explosions action flick. And I mean that in the very best way.

[@TheJaynefrances]

Technodreamer I agree, either a tongue in cheek Templar story, or a Layer Cake British cops & villains flick, even a SAS adventure with hilarious squadie humour, it's so expressive and evokes such a British sensibility.I love it.

[@rafaelr.2228]

Thumbs up for those who know this video is not about the song, arrangement, or muse. But about the mad tuba skills and trumpet arpeggios.

[@MotorMax66]

Nobody seems to do, but we think of you, awesome Tuba player on air-compressor. Well done!

[@Lucas51397]

I played the trumpet from age 10-19. I learned the trumpet solo from this song by ear and played it every day in between 1st period jazz band and 2nd period symphonic band.

[@aprilmason1616]

If I was with you in band I would always look forward to hearing it. One tubist also has his song he plays before and after practice

[@RasAlXander]

My God, the Tuba player was kicking ass! Good intonation, and articulation as well as sound overall.

[@Technodreamer]

The timbre of the instruments gives this a much more triumphant feel than the original. Not a bad thing, just different.

[@tristanchisholm5857]

Im a trombone player who LOVES that song. when I saw that incredible trombone player playing the main part of the song I loved it

9 years later - this still kicks ass. Honestly- this arrangment, the skill and good lord that TUBA!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@brucekuehn4031]

Young instrumentalists - this is why you practice, practice, practice. Thank you guys for your dedication! Support music education!

[@carlw]

Henry. There's always going to be people that have to complain or find fault about everything. The reality of it is that these are great musicians. Excellent intonation, phrasing and tuning. In my experience, if they (the complainers) could play at that level they wouldn't be complaining. C'mon people learn to give credit where credit is due. Great job guys!!!!!

[@kvnyegvmp]

no u

[@robertoesquivel4447]

Nutella For Breakfast lol what?

[@thecydonianknight6849]

Also with anything if you look for flaws you'll find them so the complainers aren't doing anything worthy of anyone's attention

[@DDS029]

It's not really complaining when, to different people, it sounds different. To me it seemed sluggish. That's not a criticism of individual talent, as much as I believe it was due to everyone hearing each other through head phones. I think it would have been better if they played without the head phones and heard each other "live." The drummer needs them because he needs to hear to adjust his volume himself, by how hard he hits each drum or cymbal. I think the engineer "took away" his expressionism by adjusting the levels on him too much.

[@chidoman1595]

Holy French HORN WAS AMAZING!!!

[@Baxocj]

it was ok...... OK AT BEING AN AMAZING GOD lol

[@MoonDQueso]

That Tuba was 🔥🔥 nailed that guitar and the solo

[@edvardfaleide538]

This epic interpretation demonstrates how a very skillful band can be lifted by a very skillful bass player. No electric powered bass guitar here, "only" an E flat bass tuba powered by air stream, loungs, proper breathing, lips and chops - and some meters of pipes and tubing. In the right hands, the tuba is powerful enough to lift the entire band, to be the engine - the pushing and driving force. And this tuba player sure provides that. As a tuba player myself, I love what Mr. Ross Knight did here. Respect!

[@Puddingbat]

Superb arrangement, epic playing.

[@Zero1031]

By far one of the best covers that i have heard.

[@Gruncival]

[@BRassquintett]

Sounds great!

[@jamesburnett7085]

I love it. Well played and well recorded. I think I did a great job listening, as well.

[@Jdmjulilu]

you guys are so good! I'd love to hear this live! I'm a trumpet player as well!

[@playingforbritain]

I was really hoping that one of the trumpets would do a "come on Wembley!" at 4:13 :P

[@leadsan]

I feel you, mate. I couldn't even sing this song without shouting "Come on Wembley!" at that part.

[@PillCozbee]

Props for including that sinister arpeggio with the bone!

[@rocsmysocs]

This literally made me warm up just listening to it

I can agree, in most cases this is true, but while in marching band we get plenty of action at our school. :P

[@bdragon1445]

It's the life of a tuba player. It doesn't help that you can only see one side of their face so the camera avoids them.
