You guys are AMAZING! It was a honor to sing with you guys! Thanks for having me!
You and the entire band killed this.
you sound GREAT 👍
You DESTROYED on this one, Kristin. Awesome work! :)
Great performance!
Thanks for doing the song. Glad I listened to it!!
Can we get some applause for the Excellent backing vocals?
I agree. They might even be better than the original and those were terrific.
Backing vocals were BADASS!!!!
👍😃👏👏👏👏😃👍
@@rocknforuagree!! 💯💯💯
Yes, they absolutely deserve it!
A band that can nail a Queensryche song to perfection is a mind-blowing thing to see!
Queensryche is one of my all time favorite bands. I grew up in the 80's and grew up with them. And this cover is 🔥
Yes, you're right.
Same here. Excellent! ✅
Me too, I will be 48 in September 2024. I still listen to the Mindcrime and Empire albums weekly.
As a longtime Queensrÿche fan, I applaud this version 🖐💪
Truth!!! This was 👍
I kinda fell out with them around 95, but Rage, Mindcrime, Empire and Promised Land have got to be my top 4 listened to albums of all time.
@@celticc9580 I tend to feel, in general terms, that the first albums of most great musicians have been somehow better than the later ones.
The Queen of the Ryche is proud🤘🏼❤️
Same! Very well done.
Richie playing the ESP to be extra authentic to DeGarmo/Wilton is...chef's kiss.
fuckin hell that tone is gorgeous gotta test some ESP new axe :O
First thing I noticed too 😂
@@fabgaz3794 The new USA ESP models are bomb. I have 3 and haven't picked up a beloved Charvel in quite awhile...
Right!
Absolutely cracking - just had to get my foam green ESP the Mirage Deluxe 1980' off the wall and jam along
Superb performance on everyone's part. Let's hear it for enunciation. Great vocals, lead and backing, and flawless instrumentation.
What a voice! The lead singer nailed that song. OMG! Gave me the chills. Love it.
Everyone involved nailed it. Great band and great backing vocals.
I couldn't stop smiling through the whole song! WOW!!! Damn right it gives the chills!
Band Geeks doing Empire in its entirety with Kristin. Wouldn't that be something?! I love love love this version of Jet City Woman.
You got my up vote on that!
Got my vote also
Performance was so dope Geoff Tate would be impressed!!
Yes. please!
First time I hear Kristin Starkey and she made a HUGE impression! Awesome voice!
Her band Temperance just released an album and it's really cool.
Jump over to her channel and check out her cover of Tonight We Ride by Unleash the Archers. She nails it perfectly!!
she definitely kicks ass !
Holy smokes!!!!! She has some pipes!
Nailed it , Vocal Harmonies are spot on
The ESP guitar. The perfect backing vocals. Awesome!
There’s some Cher in her voice and I’m not mad about it. Great job everyone!
The lead guitarist…dang…nailed it! 🤘🏻
Excellent!!
Yup.....👍😺👍
As a fan who grew up nursing on QR, bravo to everyone. That was splendidly performed. I never would have imagined the vocals done any other way but Geoff’s but she did an excellent interpretation in a way that sounded her own and not Lounge Actish. I’ll be sure and check her out.
Phil did an excellent job channeling his inner Eddie Jackson Bass line was on point and more
Wow. I’m blown away. Best Jet City Woman cover I’ve ever heard. Kristin, your voice is absolutely amazing. Backing vocals are spot on, instruments are tight and don’t miss a beat/note. Loads of talent in this video. I applaud you all!! ❤. Queensryche is extremely difficult to cover well, and you guys nailed it.
The band sounds AMAZING!!!🔥🎸❤️🤘
That was (as always) excellent. Now get back to producing that Jon Anderson and the Band Geeks Blu-Ray :)
Proper and just use of an ESP mirage, what KILLER tone on Richies guitar!
agreed. sweet!
This was absolutely incredible. This is a difficult song to cover without either sounding too dissimilar to the original or else as if one is trying to imitate their vocalist. But Kristin was true to herself, and still killed it. I was blown away by how much your backing vocals sounded like theirs! Richie, that solo was pure magic. You NAILED the tone of the original. Lastly, the production was ALSO incredibly faithful to the original! That was a near-perfect mix. This brought back some great memories. You guys are legends, you are.
Yall are fantastic!!!!!!
I've listened to this like 15 times now on my Logitech Z906 system. Super-tight band. The guitars are perfectly mixed and I love the tone - it's slightly different but I like different. Also the guitars sound a bit heavier in the pre-chorus, which I like. Bass sounds great. Drummer is spot on. Backing vocals are great. This is really an incredible rendition of a great song.
After the third listen I am still blown away. Awesome vocals from Kristen. I am gonna play the Empire album the rest of the day!!!
If I may be greedy… more Queensrÿche pleeeeeease ❤🤘
WOW!!! I have been a Queenryche fan since their very beginnings in Seattle Washington.
I have to say that this is one of their best songs. As I understand the history it's a song that was written about Seattle itself and coming home from the long miles of touring. You guys did an amazing job with this. As a vocalist and guitar player myself in high school back in the dayz I can assure anyone that this is not an easy bar to match. The music alone is on a level that will stand the test of time of any Beethoven or Chopin concerto.bThen there's the unbelievable vocal stylings of Mr. Geoff Tate. What can I say... A legend. Give yourselves a round of applause people. I only listened to your rendition once thus far but I think you nailed it note for note!!! Incredible. I will listen to this many times and even if I hear anything not 100% on point it will still be an amazing tribute to an incredible band born and raised in Seattle Washington all those years ago. Thank you for your outstanding performance.
It was written by Chris for his girlfriend at the time who was a stewardess and a real "jet city woman"
Ummm.....DAAY-AAM!! That gal has some pipes!
Had to watch twice but all of 'em are singing back up right? Absolutely spot on. Flawless performance. Don't want to call it a cover. Too good. If these musicians are geeks then they are my new favorite geek band. Luv luv luved it!
Such a challenging song. Great job!
Goosebumps ... Awesome to hear a woman sing it so well ... Oh Yeah 🤘
This is as good as the original!!! WOW!!!!!!!!!
This sounds amazing. You guys crushed it. The lead guitars are 100% doing Degarmo justice, the tone is dead on and you nailed the solo. Nailed.
The solo from this song is one of the best guitar solos of the last 50 years IMO. This is so good.
Absolute perfection! A cover that honors the original and gives a new spin with those vocals. What more could one ask for? This is just glorious.
I don't wanna gush like a fan boy, ....but sheesh , her powerful depth and tone, OMG, so confident !!! ... Richie Ripping it ... Great job guys ... this is golden :) 🎸🎸❤❤
Yeah, she's got the power
The backup harmonies are ....Fk Yeah!!! Just nice as hell! Overall...great job group
Amazing performance! Great musicians & Kristin……. DAMN!
Thank you for showing some love for an Excellent Seattle band, Queensrÿche!!!
They have many songs that are just asking to be covered.
Thank you for sharing your skills and art with us.
Richie is the best! I like the voices in this.
The tones are amazing. The vocals. The track picks.
Daaaaang... goosebumps.
One of my favorite Queensryche tunes and a fantastic cover!
Awesome vocals! Stoney Brook U. is the gift that keeps giving!
Holy shat!!!! That voice!!!! And the band! Wow.
I've always thought Queensryche was underrated. Empire is an epic album. Great job with the song.
Absolutely awesome!!!!! And she is one hell of a singer!! 💯🙏👍🤘🤘
As a massive Queensryche fan, they nailed.
That was incredible. I'm a huge Queensryche fan. I was a bit nervous about watching this, but you all did such a great job
Holy crap! Simply the best version of this song. Full stop.
Remarkable….you guys never disappoint!
That was seriously fucking awesome! Every single member fully delivered, and the backing vocals were shockingly good. The lead vocals were top notch as well! 🤘
Dont know how this ended up in my recommendations, but holy cow the instrumentation/mixing/vocals of this was insane. Wow 👏
The backup vocals were phenomenal. On top of the leads!
This is the vocal this song needed!
They hit all the harmonies that’s fucking awesome!!!impeccable Job!!
Just now seeing this, as an old school Queensryche fan, two thumbs up!
Kristin was phenomenal. What a voice! Backing vocals were also superlative.
You guys continue to prove that DI'd instruments and electric drum sets are the way to go now. This sounds fantastic. If this was fed out to a big arena PA system audiences would be amazed at just how good it sounds.
WOW! WOW! WOW! Amazing performance! I’m mesmerized! ❤
@KristinStarkey
I'm a Queensryche fan from the very beginning, the E.P. and The Warning. I can unabashedly say.........that fu__ing ROCKED !!! 😎👍
Fantastic! Love the bass in the intro, Richie's solo, and the vocals are incredible. 🙂
amazing cover! amazing GUEST! She is a beast! I am speechless!
I'm not easily impressed by covers or cover bands. That being stated i grew up with Queensryche and I had several opportunities to see Geoff perform live. I have to admit this young lady has an amazing powerful voice. LEFT ME IMPRESSED
As a sound man, I can tell you whoever mixed this did a pretty great job. All of the band is tight, and the BGVs were on point. Then there’s the drummer. I’m also a drummer and grew up on Scott Rockenfield’s playing in QR. This guy clearly didn’t do his homework, as he missed many of the intricacies that make this song great. Regardless, very solid cover.
Surprised to see Kristin here! Thanks Richie for covering one of my favorite bands... Excellent condition 💯👍
🔥🎸🔥
Outstanding! Kristin IS incredible - and those backing vocals are really good, too.
Super super super!
I must confess…
Being a Queensrÿche fan…
Having grown up in this time…
A Seattlite (BY BIRTH ONLY)…
A Tacoman…
Seeing that this cover was a woman in Geoffs place, I was concerned.
I was wrong. This sounded great!
Thank you for NOT changing the song itself.
Nice job geeks. You nailed it. Great leads Richie.
Fantastic song great cover well done❤❤
She (Kristin) was amazing, the band was also amazing as usual
Just listened to this album in full a few days ago. Well done! Anybody Listening would be great too.
Background vocals are AMAZING FELLAS !!! Great job. Blown away
Her voice is AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Just not for this song :(
Beyond impressed! Right out the gate you hear the tightness of the band. O.k. so far so good, but what will the vocals be like. She comes in and I'm blown away. Not only a great performance in general but the way you pay homage to the original is stellar! You take it to the next level! On top of that when the backing vocals kicked in I was blown away again! Bravo. Talent and years of hard work paying off!
Dear Lord in heaven. That was wonderful. Goosebumps on the chorus. 🔥🔥🔥
Wow!! Love that low tone!! Perfect song choice for that killer voice.
Wow!!! Blown away… again. That’s for doing these Richie. That’s a room full of talent!!! ❤
I am a HUGE Queensryche fan and I gotta say, that's the best cover of one of their songs I've heard in a long time. You guys kicked ass. 🤘🤘
An absolutely spot on performance of a track from one of my all time favourite albums and what an amazing incredible voice Kristin has 😮 Those backing vocals are something else too 👏👏👏
Wow! She nailed Geoff’s vocals! That bass intro is so iconic. What an incredible song!!
I can’t stop watching this cover. Y’all nailed the harmonies it sounded so rad.
Kristin Starkey done amazing job on vocals for this song. LOVE IT
Takes me back to 8yo waking up from a nap in my mom's car. Her listening to the rock station in modesto, Ca and I'm just coming too but I'm loving what I hear... and i look out the window as we are cruising south on the 99 back home to Turlock...
Wow excellent cover❤
Heyyy Richie and everyone! It’s so great to see a new video!! 🎶😄 I know of Queensryche but I am not familiar with this song. You all sound amazing!! This is a great cover!! The singer is amazing!’ 👍 love that guitar work
Holy crap, bad to bone!!!!! Best cover ever!!!
Very talented musicians.
Are you kidding me??? You guys are completely giving me goosebumps like insane@! This is spot on nailing this beyond words. ❤️🔥🌟✨❤️🔥🌟✨❤️🔥 Fantastic vocals!!!
Outstanding all around! Singer & lead guitar just crushed it.
Holy what the... Seriously amazing and fantastic. Old school, high school marching band bagpipe playing, garage band bass player, metal head that has been listening since "The Warning", and honestly listen to O:M and Empire at least monthly since their release. No lie. They are my "Go To's". I mow my acres to either of the albums, (I said I'm old). That was so spot on it was unreal, and you all just sound incredible. Your sound was exact, yet I could hear it as a faithful cover. So enjoyable. Man that is good stuff! Thank you so much!
Killin it! Great job! Love her vocals and the playing was perfection!
Excellent as always guys! Tearing it up, and Kristin with those killer vocals. Awesome work!
That was unbelievable wow
gdamn put my hairs on end, this was my gen music great jobs folks, queenrsyche ftw
Fantastic song choice and execution! Great job as always!!
Damn Great as always and Kristin what a beautiful and powerful voice drop and dead gorgeous.
wow!
One of my favorite albums of all time. This is about as perfect as it gets aside from seeing the boys live back then. Lead tone is spot on!
Insanely great cover! Kristin killed the vocals. Happy Thanksgiving Richie and crew!
