Astonishing. Just that. Blown away - AGAIN!
Outstanding cover and arrangement of one of my favorite tracks off of The Prelude Implicit album! Thank you for continuing to amaze!
I love Kansas, and especially your Kansas covers! Great work, great music.
This might be the first time I've heard a Kansas song first in the form of a cover. It's fantastic, as always.
Same here.... Very well done. Should try to hear the original now.. ;)
Same here. I don’t think I know this one, nor what album it is from without looking it up
@@LonnySarao64 It's from one of their newer albums with Ronnie. The original isn't bad, but this is the song's best form IMO.
What makes you think this is a Kansas song when 4 of the 6 band members had nothing to do with writing or recording it and it did not involve Steve Walsh or Kerry Livgren.
@@joeblow2069 It's close enough, bro.
Thank you so much for all your great comments!! We are overwhelmed!!☺️
Fantastic!!!! What a great reimagining of this song. Love y’alls work so much!
Thanks for covering, outstanding job!
another great cover ..love it ..nice guitar playing there ..how could anyone critisize well done ..lovely voices .
Great and absolutely beautiful cover and wonderful performance!
All the best from another lead guitarist and great lover of the Kansas group and of progressive rock! Keep on rockin', beautiful friends!!
Bravissimi!
Once again, you do Kansas proud! Nice arrangement and great acoustic work and of course, spot on vox.
That is not KANSAS!
No Livgren and no Walsh.
Platt and Rivzi had no history with this band prior to this album.
@@joeblow2069 You're welcome to your own opinion. However, I have been a huge fan of Kansas since 1976 and am well aware who the original Kansas was. I prefer the originals but I also think the current iteration is quite good as well, just different. You're comment is like saying The New York Yankees are not the Yankees without Babe Ruth. I'm very glad the current iteration is still playing and creating new music. Btw, Kerry & Dave are pretty supportive of this current iteration in case you are not aware…both original Kansas members. And you're comment about who had history with the band is only partially true. Rizvi (correct spelling btw) had prior history with the band as far back as the year 2000. Jeff Glixman hired him at his studio…you do know who Glixman is, correct?
@@donnylimbert4925 That is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. So a rock band is just a corporate legal name that exists forever even if all the founding members are dead? Like Pepsi or Mars? No, music is creative. Kansas is not just some name to record or play under.
Your Babe Ruth comparison is stupid. This is not a baseball team and Babe ruth did not found the Yankees!!
If a group of guys made an album under the name Led Zeppelin and it did not include Robert plant and Jimmy Page I would disregard it. If you are stupid enough to think that is Led Zeppelin go ahead.
It is not Kansas when the 2 main song writers are not present and 4 of the 6 members are not present. Yes that is my opinion. Not knocking these German kids for liking a song and doing a quality cover.
Hach hach hach ... einfach toll.
Absolute brill!!! I love the music of Kansas ever since, but regrettably I have to say that Kansas couldn't have made this song any better than Meli and Martin did... and Simon and Lars did their jobs great as well... as always! I luv it...
Gratuliere zu diesem saustarken Cover eines sehr anspruchsvollen Songs! Mit Eurer gesanglichen und instrumentalen Performance gehört ihr zu den besten Akustikbands weltweit. Und der neue Drummer/Percussionist ist eine sehr gute Ergänzung.
Auch die Videoqualitä ist wieder sehr gut in dieser schönen Location. Ich war noch nie im Harz, aber dort würde es mir gefallen.
Die beiden waren kürzlich zweimal in Sachsen, einmal im Bergkeller Reichenbach und einmal im Kristallpalast Auerbach. Und nächstes Jahr sind sie wieder in Reichenbach beim Artrock-Festival dabei. Mein Tip: vorbeikommen;-) prog-rock.club/artrockfestival/
You guys are so good. Honestly, I’m shocked that you are not bigger than you are. I love hearing you guys!
Thank You!! 😊
This arrangement really serves this song well. I guess I'm a fan.
Thank you :) We also have CDs if you are interested :)
Love this great version of a great song,and maybe...just maybe I enjoy this version more than the original
Fantastic! Looking forward to your new Cover CD!
As a Kansas fan of over 40 years, thanks! You guys are just fantastic! I will keep listening and keep up the GREAT work!'nn
Friends, is there no end to the human possibility of your talent?
😊😊😊
Great - I was hoping you would some of this new stuff. Thanks
This is a very special song to me and this version is simply incredible! Seriously, well done!
Thank You Doug 😊
You guys always do such a great job!! I especially love the KANSAS 😍 songs...you give us goodbumps every time. Keep them coming. Love from the States from a distant German "cousin".
Hey Barbara!! Thank you so much! Best wishes to you over there! 😊
Beautiful.
Herrlich! Vielen Dank ihr Lieben!
LOVE it!
Es ist so unglaublich schön geworden. Gut, natürlich sehe ich es - aus gewissen Gründen - ziemlich subjektiv, aber dennoch glaube ich, dass das Video zu euren bzw. Marcs besten gehört und der Song vielleicht auch.
Just wanna say i love this cover........ Great work Martin and Melanie :-) I think that this kind of music genre you do best !
Thank you Peter!! 😊😊
Mega!!!
simon's playing open handed? ;) whoohooooo, give him a hug :D always a pleasure to fellow left hand users on drums ;)
That was fantastic.
Wow! That was great!
Seen Kansas 3 times...1979 and twice just before pandemic. Love this song.
Thank you Michael 😊
Amazing... simply amazing!
Thank you 😀
Awesome cover !!
Class!!!!!!
This is incredible. The sound is futuristic
Thank you Lonny. :)
Excellent version of this excellent song, from a true gem of an album from Kansas, which I just finished listening to today. This one's really grown on me personally the more I listen to it. Great choice of a cover also.
Thanks for another unique & heartfelt cover!
Love this song,and love your rendition!!Great Jon!
Thank you so much 😀
Well done! I enjoy your Kansas covers. 👏
Love this song, great rendition from you guys ... performance, sound and video on the highest level, congrats to all involved!
As always , you both knocked it out of the park
I like everything I heard from this band so far. They are simply gifted and born to be together to provide music...
:) Thank you Dániel

Thank you 😊
👏👏👏
Klasse Gitarre & Gesang!!
I have been looking for Melanie and Martin for some time bcz I forgot about them... and some time has passed in order for me to remember they made such great covers.. And after I stumbled upon this song I realized once again that their covers precede their inspirations :) or just so my ear says so :)
Thanks Jaroslav 😊
Kaum zu glauben, aber hier ist das Cover tatsächlich besser als das Original! Und bei einer Band wie Kansas will das schon was heißen. Großartig gemacht!
Dank Dir für das liebe Kompliment :)
Only 64, comments crisp and clear band and the Inflames cover of swim got me hooked. Coming from Louisiana, you guys keeps the toons coming.
Thanks Kristopher!! 😊 We also have cds if you are interested! Check out our online Shop at www.gray-matters.de
Klasse! Alles super stimmig - locker und überzeugend dargeboten ... Danke dafür!
Danke Uwe. Wir haben noch viel mehr Acoustic Cover hier auf CZcams. Schau gern mal zwischen. 😊
@@MartinSchnella Danke Dir und Euch - Martin, für die schönen Erfahrungen, die ich mit Eurer Musik machen kann. Ich hab Euch jetzt abonniert und werde mir ALLES anschauen und hören!
@@uweschramm Das freut uns sehr! Auf www.gray-matters.de gibt es auch CDs von uns 😊
@@MartinSchnella Hatte ich diesen Moment gefunden und bin schon am stöbern 😊 Mal sehen, ob ich es schaffen kann zu einem Eurer nächsten Gigs zu kommen ... und mal sehen welche CD ich von Euch bestellen werde. Ich bleib dran!
Martin & Melanie,
I saw Kansas two months ago, I wish there was some way you could partner with them and come to America and be their opening band and perform songs that they would not be playing on the tour. The Kansas fans (Wheatheads) would absolutely LOVE you! I so enjoy watching and hearing all of your videos.
LOVE YOU GUYS!!!!
James
Hey James 😊 Thank you so much. This would be absolutly awesome. We will see what happens in the future. Meanwhile we just can sell our Cds 😊
Way cool. Love the new Kansas music. You guys are amazing!
Hey Tim! Thank you so much :)
I love the relax'ed attitude from these musicians, this is a fantastic beautiful tune and very very well done cover version.
Thank you, yes, we tried to make it different 😊
All the best to you guys... wonderful people and musicians!
Thank you :)
Oh! So we’ll done!
I really love the precise execution in all of your cover songs.
If only everyone who performed had as refined a sense of the value of precision as you guys do...if only. Again, well done. Marvelous work.
Thank you so much Mark 😊
Sensational team, that was beautiful.
Such tight vocals and great orchestration and spacing.
Thanks Nathan 😊
What is it with you Germans. You make the best shoes(adidas). The best cars.(Mercedes and Porsche) And now the best guitar players(Michael Schenker and Martin Schnella). Melanie's voice is so awesome. Keep up the good work and I can't wait to get my copy of your next CD. Your friend from Arkansas.
Hey Rusty!! Thank you so much for your Kind words
Just discovered this. Thanks so much for acknowledging recent Kansas material. Another amazing interpretation. Please keep them coming :)
I am coming to Germany for about 10 days in October. If you don’t mind me asking, what part of Germany are you from? I just would love to go to some music clubs and hopefully, maybe hear you guys live while I am there. I know it’s a long shot, but just in case...
@@sambates490 Thank you so much Sam!! We come from Lower saxony. Please check out our Homepage www.gray-matters.de there are all recent concert dates. And also an online Shop with lots of cds 😊😊
I like this better than the Kansas version of the song! I am sure you have people suggest songs all the time, But the Kansas song "No one Together" would be a very timely song to consider, is message is truly amazing.
Myles, thank you so much! We also have CDs, if you are interested! 😊 Feel free to check out our online Shop at www.gray-matters.de
Great song - haven't heard the original yet although I thought I had all Kansas' LPs. I guess it's a recent one - no prizes for guessing what I'll be searching for on youtube later. Thank you for keeping the great music of Kansas alive. Their best stuff should be in the National Curriculum.
Thank you for your warm words 😊
Love you both, such a unique and "original" cover if that makes sense!
Thank you so much! :)
🎯
You guys should open for Kansas. Play some of your original songs and a few acoustic Kansas covers for songs Kansas isn’t going to get to in their set anyway.
I hope the guys in Kansas listen to this so that they can learn how to play this song properly! 😀
great smile, Mel
Bravo, bravo, bravo. Maravilhoso cover! Parabéns. Considero que muitas de suas versões chegam a ser melhores que as originais. Desejo-lhes muito sucesso e que continuem o bom trabalho. (Bravo, bravo, bravo. Wonderful cover! Congratulations. I think many of your versions are even better than the original ones. I wish you success and please, keep on with the the good work.)
Thank you Lucas. :) We also have CDs. Please feel free to check out our webshop at www.gay-matters.de :) We do send worldwide :)
Obviously Kansas had to write it, but you guys took this song and made it fire. This is so good.
Thank you!! 😊
With This Heart - diese Coverversion ist wunderschön 🎶🎤🎸 - gefällt mir besser als das Original von The Prelude Implicit.
where was this filmed? Germany? Beautiful song and beautiful countryside.
Yes 😊 In the Harz Mountains
Please please please cover Mask of the Great Deciever from Kerry Livgrens solo album Seeds Of Change. Ronnie James Dios Voice and Kerrys music were beyond epic !
Thank you! Oh there are so many songs on our list 🤩
@MartinSchnella Mask would be my favorite. I've always loved anything Kansas. You honor it every time you post new music.
Einfach sprachlos.
Hi Martin . Your guitar work is brilliant . Could you tell me the tuning . I don't think it in standard .
Thank you Allan! This is DADGAD Tuning. The Celtic Tuning. I mostly play this 😀
Martin Schnella . Thank you Martin . You are creative . It sounds brilliant . And thank you for your quick reply . I shared on f/b . 😀
@@allan123 Awesome! Thanks for your Support!!!
wich is one more reason you are awesome...
Different, but 90% as good as the original! Better in some respects!
Thank you! ☺️
Your great. I also listened amaranth cover (better than the original) Avete calore e talento.
There are more instruments then what the video displays
Yes! A Bass guitar. But the bass player did not join this video shot. It is our Bass player Lars Lehmann
um längen besser als das orginal.... wenn Kansas sich fragt warum das letzte Album floppte - da würd ich beim Gesang anfangen
Live hören ist ganz bestimmt auch gut;-) z.B. beim nächsten ARTROCK-FESTIVAL prog-rock.club/artrockfestival/
Better than the original. I had always dismissed this song until I heard your version of it...fantastic song and a fantastic arrangement that allowed me to really hear the song for the first time.
Thank you so much ☺️ ☺️ ☺️
This is good for what it is, but I'm really wishing for original music. A 3rd flaming row would have me throwing money your way.
They do have 3 videos featuring originals from their Oblivion Tales release. Absolutely love their originals heads and tails above their covers .Check 'em out.I love their covers too and I understand where you're coming from.
I think half of the views are mine...:)
😁😁😁
Nice cover I guess. you kids know I'm a big fan.
Prelude Implicit is not a real Kansas album in my view. Any album without both Livgren and Walsh is not really Kansas.
Zak Rizvi and Ronnie Platt did an album and used some of the Kansas guys as house musicians.
Thank you. Times are changing and after so many years members of bands change. In my opinion they do great new music. Of course the earlier masterpieces are their best. But I do not want to value. :)
Exceeds the original in my opinion.
Thank you :)
