We Didn't Start The Fire (metal cover by Leo Moracchioli)

[@T1NF01L]

Leo playing a tiny drum set will forever bring me happiness. Oh and his amazing covers.

[@T1NF01L]

@Official_frog_leap_studios I hope your gift is an internet hug because that's all i need.

[@trevorward85043]

This is why I keep coming back. You take a song, give it some edge, give it your style, and then blast it out of this world. Thanks Leo!

[@leolego]

Let´s start with some fire going into the weekend! What do you wanna hear next? Let me know in the comments:)

[@BradyBredovich]

Social Distortion or Mike Ness' songs - Ball and Chain, Winners and Losers, No Man's Friend, etc. You're the best, Leo! Good luck!

[@gemma9023]

It's been a few weeks so... Hotstepper? 🤣 pretty please?

[@cemkadrgan5165]

KANSAS DUST IN THE WIND PLEASE LEO

[@BethanyBowl25]

SUNSET BY THE MIDNIGHT PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@kristendawn3161]

Rapture by blondie please

[@TheGeekViper]

I will never get sick of seeing that mini drum kit 🤣. It makes me smile EVERY TIME ☺️

[@FYHalways]

its the floppy wammy bar for me XD

[@lesliemason4191]

Would love to see your daughter jamming on it along with you!

[@aarond.8434]

Love Billy Joel’s version, but Leo most certainly started a fire with this cover 🔥 awesome as always.

[@Bandita1001]

But he didn't light it, tried to fight it.

[@oliversmith1981]

facts

[@WarBull2]

Very nice!!!

[@zawarudo384]

He didn't start the fire, it was always burning.

[@markusdupont984]

Got chills as soon as I heard the opening riff.

[@ComradeJehannum]

An amazing thing about this song is that it is EVER EVOLVING, if you ever see Billy perform this live, there are MORE VERSES that bring it up to "current date".

[@ericsmith1737]

I just can't stop myself, I keep clicking and clicking, each one is better than the last.

[@georgeedward1691]

Another great redo of a classic. You are the only person in history who actually knows how to redo a song without ruining it. Fact is you make them better. Excellent work. I look forward to your next hit.

[@amykelly933]

Man, you just kill it everytime you've got something new to share. LOVED THIS!

[@RijackiTorment]

This is one of my fav Billy Joel songs partly because of the history in it (all events and things in his lifetime to the time he wrote the song) and just how darn catchy it is. I love Leo's take on it, too, great grunginess.

[@MegaKat]

If you don't already know, someone did a version up to 2020 and it's really good, too!

[@rellikai945]

You will never find someone that will love you as much as Leo loves whatever song he is currently playing at the moment.

[@robertwhitehead4531]

I do this song at karaoke from time to time. Am I the only one who thinks Billy should have written a sequel every few years?

[@bradsmith1314]

me too! i was kinda drunk so i had to watchg the words for first 2 verses but last verse i know by heart yay brad!

[@nightshade7240]

We can all go home, we found out who started the fire, it was Leo with a break down so fire it is present at every point of expansion, forward and back. Leo dun started the fire.

[@marisaclark2410]

When I was younger our band teacher played this constantly and wanted all of us to memorize every word.

[@Jrizzle7426]

This is atleast the 5th time I've had a song stuck in my head and then it's Leo's cover on Friday. I was whistling this at work yesterday and have not listened to the song in years. Wtf man. Love the cover as always 😅

[@stripedzebra313]

Not only did you kill it, you brought it back to life then slayed it again 🤘🤘🤘

[@elsbetsunday]

❤❤❤

[@Charlesb88]

Given how difficult this song is to sing given the list of references in the song, I have to give you props for pulling this off. Billy Joel has commented how easy it to screw up just one line in this song and throw the whole song completely off the rails when playing it live which is why he doesn’t consider his favorite song to play live even though he still likes the song.

[@IncongruentBalance]

1993 I used to listen to the Billy Joel version on cassette constantly. Thank you for brining the magic back to this song!

[@ppoopalan]

2:33 we didn't start the fire! You did LM. YOU DID👍🏿

[@wintermute740]

I love the original of this, and you never disappoint. Thanks for another excellent cover.

[@poornoodle9851]

Awesome solos / breakdowns!

[@ferench.1243]

An exceptionally great talent.

[@malteesarplays5177]

This man is fire, his music is fire and ALWAYS makes the day better a new song drops

[@Postmann-tf5rt]

The last titles don't knock me out of my seat. Take a break and reflect on what you've got! A life for noise and metal!

[@JeremiahFrye]

Gosh this brings back memories. I had to take an American Studies class in high school and we studied the lyrics of a couple songs and this was one of them. So I remember listening to this song in class and analyzing the lyrics. Too bad we didn't have this version 25 years ago

[@BENCRUSH7]

I did this in english in highschool i think, was learning about JFK for whatever reason, and the teacher put billys version on, been one of my favourite songs since!

[@RickHowell89]

Ahhh, the Billy Joel history lesson as sung by Leo. Great job.

[@KOZMOGRAFX]

I tune in a) to hear Leo's musical take on a song, and b) to see what kind of epic instrumental he always manages to sandwich into his covers!

[@donDiegoEstebanMgLKenNDJohnson]

Glad to see "Broccoli Studios" is still up and running the show 18 months later. Rock on Brocco-Leo eStudios!

[@Marie_West]

Need an updated version of from where this one left off in history to current!

[@schulhausgarten1371]

Exactly my thoughts evrytime I hear this song.

[@neodutch]

Steven Crowder would do it every August.

[@ComradeJehannum]

Catch any live show of Billy's where he performs this and you'll get to hear the "up to date version".

[@BIGPIE3333]

[@kanishkapanagoda]

I gave an AI to rewrite the song. Here it is. PROMPT: Rewrite the song "We didn't start the fire" by Billy Joel replacing the history of the last 20 years in the verses and keeping the chorus unchanged. Verse 1: We never switched the lightbulb on Apple released the iPod one Facebook was born, the world was stunned Google Maps had just begun Chorus: We didn't start the fire It was always burning since the world's been turning We didn't start the fire No we didn't light it, but we tried to fight it Verse 2: A new president was in command The iPhone brought a new demand Global warming made the scientists sigh The internet was in the sky Chorus: We didn't start the fire It was always burning since the world's been turning We didn't start the fire No we didn't light it, but we tried to fight it Verse 3: SpaceX made its maiden flight The gig economy took flight The #metoo movement rose up strong Netflix and chill became the song Chorus: We didn't start the fire It was always burning since the world's been turning We didn't start the fire No we didn't light it, but we tried to fight it

[@bryantross3532]

Touch and Go. Emerson, Lake, and Powell. Serious potential!!!!!! I think you could tear that song up!!!!!

[@kylekriedemann]

Bohemian Rhapsody would sound insane from you

[@battycowboy]

Especially with his puppets 😂

[@bryantross3532]

Agreed

[@felipemoreno3877]

Same here🤟

[@goostiferthegoose]

Indeed

[@jeffparrish4301]

Agree

[@vitale6633]

How timely and appropriate to bring this song back to life with the perfect amount of metal edge. Love it !

[@joshuaschmidinger3993]

Billy Joel is a legend and Leo covers legends so well...he always makes it his own 😎🤘♥️🔥👏

[@60kneal]

My wife and I were in a shopping center where we live last weekend and Billy Joel's version was on in one of the stores. I told my wife "This would be a cool song to metal up!" She agreed. You beat me to it! LOL! This is awesome!

[@dionei_lamb]

Baita cover! Cada vez surpreendendo mais e mais!! Parabéns pelo trabalho realizado!!

[@fredfreer75]

I love your music. I have shown some of it to my coworkers who now listen too. 168 hours from now I will be at a Billy Joel concert and I so hope he plays this song. Its one of my all time favorites of his, and your version is now on my play list too. Thank you

[@jRoy7]

One of my favorite songs, so glad to see this version!

[@dbt1437]

WTF did I just witness? This has got to be the best cover of this I have ever heard!!

[@doggystyly]

Yes other comments rubbish 😊

[@DeclanMecha]

Billy Joel is one of my favorite artists and I love your style. This was amazing!

[@emiliocovarrubias2017]

Thank you for that Jam. Its my ANTHEM as I walk out. New journey new year!

[@polysan1ty]

I learned this song in 8th grade. I can even remember most if it to the tune. Great cover as always, Leo!

[@velvetdogg7375]

It's a fast song packed with a lot of words normally. You pull it off so clean and distinctly, impressive.

[@greenbasterd9425]

Thanks for this Leo. I always loved this song. Totally needed the metal makeover.

[@Kahnanesgi]

"We didn't start the fire. It was always burning, since the world's been turning" - Billy Joel, We Didn't Start The Fire. "Only from space, can you see how much earth is burning" - Billy Idol, Neuromancer

[@SeniorCharry]

Probably my favorite cover so far from this channel. seriously nice job.

[@WolverineBeast86]

He finally did it!! Let's go!!! 🔥 🔥 🔥

[@AsherTheGoober]

I was always looking for a metal version of this song. You released it on my birthday too! Love you Leo. Your music is always brings out the best in me. :)💜

[@sconnz]

Awesomeness! Always loved this song, but this puts the cherry on top!

[@Ugh_its_dat_guy86]

Love the original but Leo's take on is fun and amazing.

[@KRaul1981]

Opened youtube today and first i saw was this. Leo, thank you very much. I am so happy now. It was 3 years ago i wrote you first time asking to make cover for this song. Thank you, thank you, thank you

[@theholyduck5520]

Been hoping for this one for years, and you never, ever disappoint.

[@StrikerFox808]

YYYYYAAAAAAASSSSSS!!!!! i honestly was just thinking you should do this after rebel yell!!!! and you read my mind!! WOOOO!!

[@larrycrabs5995]

Love it!!!!! ❤️

[@auntie-angie-2112]

Friday morning with Leo and a cup of coffee. It doesn't get any better 😆☕❤🧡💛💚💙💜🤎🖤🤍

[@RAW_Reality]

Contrary to what the lyrics might lead you to believe, Leo's riffs DEFINITELY start fires!!! /P.S.A.

[@TheRealMrAndrew]

There is a certain level of marketing genius at work here. Taking popular songs, making them metal(which is a fairly niche segment), and then making a humorous music video that keeps people watching. Bravo.

[@SidbeR]

Awesome, as always!

[@drewv-ft9wy]

Leo have been a fan for a long time my 7 year old daughter love hearing your transition from normal song to metal. Thank you!

[@SweetXNytmare]

Leo's version is always the best! I just don't know why 🔥

[@horrormaestro3468]

I've seen Billy Joel 4 times in concert. But I'm also a metal head. .I've always wondered what Joel's music would sound like with a metal twist to it. Now I know and I love it.

[@thedevilsadvocate8766]

Leo has aged like an exquisite wine and I prophecy he will continue to do so.

[@mosamaster]

One of my childhood favorites 😍 ❤️ Billy Joel ❤️ 💙 ♥️ 💖 💕 💗 ❤️

[@spitzkopfpat989]

Great cover, as always. Pleas make "I can`t dance" from Genesis, this would by awesome!

[@MonkeyJedi99]

LOVING the new flavor palette of the breakdowns! The first feels like a completely new approach, and the second one uses some great effects!

[@sst1911]

Two weeks in a row, your weekly cover has been from the "I didn’t know that I needed this" file. This is great. Good job. By the way, did you skip a verse in there, when you played the solo?

[@fireflash2773]

I never tire of listening to it after so many years

[@anasnaiii9494]

ฉันชอบฟังเพลง โคฟเวอร์ของคุณมาก จากไทยแลนด์ I like to listen to music Your cover is very from Thailand.

[@petzhf1496]

Great stuff ❤️‍🔥

[@drh255]

This combines two of my favorite things: Billy Joel and awesome heavy metal covers.

[@Venom71717]

Fantastic, Leo. Rock the 80's into awesome covers for us.

[@rodpasichnyk9140]

4:15, one of the best in years!

[@Gary-ij1bg]

I feel like Billy Joel would be freaking the eff out about this…… I on the other hand think it rocks. Well done sir 🤘🤘 Now on to business: I WOULD DO ANYTHING FOR LOVE (but I won’t do that). Epic is an overused term but would be completely appropriate…

[@Plassezhilltonclub]

another amazing tune , by the best LEO ever

[@LokiOdinson1]

С удовольствием вспомнил этот старый, но шикарный хит. Да и кавер, как всегда, на высоте.

[@shubhandthewitches]

Can you believe I am vibing with this, headbanging, playing on repeat, since 6am, on a Monday morning, while getting ready for a dead-ass 9-5 job. 🤘 Life couldn't be cool-er.

[@TheDudeFIN]

Maybe we didn't, but Ryan did

[@notasleanstillasmean3593]

Just seeing this, love it!

[@JohnBlant]

I was gonna comment something similar but ya beat me to it lmfao

[@chooseyourdestiny75]

Proof The world NEEDS METAL !

[@Ruki_passatizhi]

Спасибо большое, всегда радуете своим творчеством)))

[@imtohighforthis5622]

And just like that i dont hate this song anymore 🤘🤘

[@Mobbosso]

RYAN STARTED THE FIRE!!!

[@MattU-oj1dz]

Finally a Billy Joel cover, one of my fav artists. Leo, you nailed it...great job!!

[@Exerus]

You know what's funny, fallout boy brought me back here.

[@mxaexm]

So much talent in just one human being.

[@Vas_Is_Das]

Для первого пробного клипа не плохо получилось, желаю в дальнейшем продвинуться, контент то нормальный и набрать аудиторию, чувак попробуй в контакте свои клипы выглядывать, там в группах разных под творчество заточенных, это поможет продвижению, главное не забрасывай, потенциал то есть 🙂

[@timmyb8353]

AGAIN with the KILLER breakdowns and a Guitar Solo!

[@Max7819]

Glory to Ukraine!

[@КириллГриценко-ш4ч]

Героям слава!

[@angiemoore1849]

Always loved this song, now I love it even more!

[@danielvesga2836]

Best parts of Leo's arrangements are always at the end.....

[@jeremymushinski7531]

Leo you did it again, your riffs are unbelievable man!! Your a musical genius!!!!

[@fearnocturnus3108]

Thank you. I've always loved this song and even won 2nd place in a solo contest playing it on clarinet when I was younger. This is now my favorite version 😊

[@thaddausmizgata895]

! !! !!! !! !WoW LEO! !! !!! !! ! This was the first song as a child that helped me to realize how deep and essential music is for everyone regardless of their upbringing...I LOVE YOU{guys] homie...!!!!!!!TY!!!!!!!

[@pavelkoudele5526]

Yeahh!! 🤘🤘 Pavel 🇨🇿

[@charlesmuzyczek593]

I am a huge Billy Joel fan and have been hoping Leo would do one of his songs. This is absolutely amazing!!

[@cherrybacon9790]

Leo for president!

[@larryscott8151]

2:42 had some Buckethead vibes, which is awsome!!

[@JacobParkYusuk]

This man... needs to be the next Superbowl half time show.

[@Sirena_777]

This is probably the most cozy and sweetest studio in the world 😊 2:47 - Only a genius like you could make a guitar sing like a frog! This is beyond fantastic! 2:32- But this was dangerous (albeit impressive). Be careful please.😅❤

[@robowens2281]

As a Billy Joel fan from childhood and playing all his songs on the piano from my house on Long Island - love love love this!!! More Billy PLEASE!!! Maybe Stilletto??!!?? Omg that would be incredible!!!!

[@EpicdiamondVT]

My man has almost all of Norway subscribed to him.

[@The_Modeling_Underdog]

Perfect song. Perfect cover. Perfect outro.
