  • Great cover! Especially the SOLO-PART, wow!

    All the best from Germany / Cologne

    Lothar as ELPI

  • it's actually really well done.... kind of haunting, bittersweet really awesome

  • Can't get enough of this, Keith & Kris are amazing together, so much talent, pretty & hotness on stage. I attended that show & it was all fun! Great job boys.

  • This is proof that only country artist can "really" sing

  • wow...hip hop and country literally DESTROY music.....point blank....

  • I was expecting this to be much better-

    NOT THAT IT ISN'T GOOD OR ANYTHING

    I'm a rocker- and I LOVE Keith Urban's guitar playing, which isn't really showcased here (and not that it always needs to be)

    ANOTHER INCREDIBLE KEITH URBAN collaboration

    w/ Carrie Underwood (many youtubes) "Stop Draggin' my Heart Around"

  • All I can say is "WOW!!"...Great new version of a favorite oldie!

  • "lol, this isn't even a country song. The original was done by Don Henley who is a rock artist"

    Well, when the Eagles started they were considered more C&W than Pop or Rock so I guess it's where in their career this song was released.

  • Pretty solid cover. It's a testament to how great this song is that it works in country or other genres.

  • Keiths sexy voice with this sexy song is omg delicious!

  • Its funny reading the keith urbun v don henley battle going on here. The song is written by The Hooters. Whove written loads more better songs than Urban has.Thats why he covers their songs!

  • @ZILCH7 Not sure where you get your info from, but the song was written primarily by Mike Campbell, guitarist from Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers, with small input (and credit) from Henley. Look it up at ASCAP. And as cover versions go, Urban did a mighty fine job on this one.

  • @GuitarInstructor You're partly correct; The music was written by Mike Campbell, who worked with Tom Petty as a guitarist and producer for many years. Don Henley wrote the lyrics.

  • @GuitarInstructor

    TO EVERYONE-

    There is a killer story behind this song= check it out on wikipedia AND on songfacts-com

    BASICALLY, Tom Campbell (heartbreakers) gave the music to Don Henley, and while driving in his car, he came up with the words

  • @RMitch1015 You can hear people singing the correct line in the background

  • I never get tired watching Keith and Kris sing together! They are so awesome together.  Sure hope they can go out on tour again together after Kris finishes his 2nd CD.

  • They both rule! & Kris is fiiinneee ♥

    with an amazing voice too !

  • @baybekel You're an ass... maybe you should go find a nearby toilet. This song wasn't originated by Henley but your still an ass. This song was performed by Keith & Kris with soul, passion & fun. Go under a rock!!!

  • @TheSpectorInspector someone is closed minded

  • great cover

  • people gotta stop screaming so we can enjoy the song

  • I keep coming back to watch this because I love it so much. I wish Keith & Kris would record a song together! Their voices blend so beautifully.

  • why is everyone dissing this vid? Keith and Kris are amazing. I liked the song deconstructed and accustic. Gives it a new vibe. Both artists did a good job @ keeping the meaning of the song while giving it a new sound. Urban and Allan rock!!! :) :) :)

  • Luv me some Kris Allen! And Keith Urban! Together!! Thud!!

  • love keith urban and kris allen sounds great on harmonies but when Jesus comes back he won't be happy with this.

    In the beginning there was the Henley version which begat the Ataris version this version shall be cast into a fiery pit.

  • @call616 What a dumb comment... go to hell! By the way... Jesus approved!

  • How cool a version is that!!!!! I love the arrangement . Very very good. Don Henley as part of the Eagles was of course country influenced anyway so whats the big deal???

  • not the best version, but i think both of their voices blend together very well.  they are both extremely talented. especially keith urban. LOVE THEIR VOICES!

  • I love this song -- and these two do an amazing job with it. Their voices sound great together!! I <3 Kris!

  • typical country musicians remaking classic rock songs due to a lack of new material. then on top of that ruining it doing it acoustic

  • @Robebob03 Wow!, You sound miserable... Keith isn't a typical country musician and Kris isn't a country musician at all. They are 2 great artists having a great time performing together. NO, they didn't ruin this song... they did a great version of it. You obviously don't know either artist or what you're talking about. Hmmm... Why are you watching the video then? Loosen up dude... it's all in good fun and these guys are amazing together! You sound very uptight! :o(

  • @kcaj123456 Same thoughts here :-D

  • Keith and Kris . nice blending of voice

  • My two favorite artists! Together! 

  • Keep coming back to watch it, cause I LOVE it! Sure hope these two can get together again on tour in 2011!

  • dreaful

  • Excellent cover of a fantastic song by two artists who did honor to Don Henley by not changing the song to make it "their own". I would really love to hear this on an album.

  • you just know the audience went home and googled the lyrics for 'next time' :)

  • they sound so great together. i just saw them both yesterday in concert! They were both so great! I LOVE KEITH! <3

  • Whoever mentioned Bryan Adams did this song is mistaken. Maybe they're thinking of Summer of '69, which was a great song by Bryan Adams.

  • Too much screaming to even hear the darn thing!

  • @mustangmom27 You must be old or need to get your hearing aide checked! Hell, screaming is what it's all about! especially with Keith & Kris! I would walk over hot coals to see these two amazing guys!

  • @calarkie I guess the screaming is good though, because it drowns out this lame version of a classic by Don Henley that should never be touched. And Kris who? That was another Idol upset where the favorite didn't win.

  • @mustangmom27 Why are you being so negative? Do you have a problem with Keith or Kris? No, I'm not related to any of these guys buy why can't I have a little fun and enjoy the videos? You sound extremely uptight and what's wrong with singers covering songs? It"s done all the time in the music industry. Oh, by the way...when you asked "Kris who?", maybe you should have listened more carefully to Keith Urban when he announced, "Kris Allen".

  • @calarkie Not a big country fan, but I do appreciate Keith's talent. By the way, I'm a pretty easygoing person and simply made a statement that the screaming was loud. You're the one who started throwing insults to someone you don't even know. Gee, I'd worry more about why your state of mind and why you feel the need to bash everyone who doesn't agree with you. Like I said, you're obviously his mother or close relative. Now kindly get lost, thank you.

  • @mustangmom27 I didn't mean to offend or criticize you, so for that I'm sorry. I don't know what happens when watching these videos but sometimes, uncalled for comments come out, and it happens on both sides. I am an easy going person like yourself and I don't like conflict, so if I offended you... I apologize. And please, quit acusing me of being related to Kris because I don't even know the guy. Lets both enjoy some music and peace out! Have a nice day! :o)

  • @mustangmom27 Wow!, you have a problem with enjoyment! Covering a song shows respect and honor to the original artist. Maybe you should get off your high horse, or should I say 'Mustang' because you don't know anything about having a good time or listening to good covers by great artists! What's your problem? I'm entitled to my opinion just like you are but you sound unhappy!

  • @mustangmom27 Obviously, you've never been to a good, live concert because

    'screaming' is part of the experience. I've been to 3 Keith concerts and 2 Kris concerts and let me tell you, screaming is a big part of the fun experience! If you go to a concert with no screaming, the artist on stage must be pretty boring. 

  • @calarkie Well, actually, I've been to several concerts, but not the kind of bands that attract mostly tween girls between the ages of 8 and 15 like Kris Allen's fan base. But like I said, it's good in this video, as it drowns out the music which is a poor imitation of a great Don Hneley song, enough said.

  • The Oakdale in Wallingford Sunday night!!! I'll be there!!

  • I like this one OK...but The Ataris version is supreme.

  • AWESOME

  • The guy in the middle seems like a cutie pie too lol

  • Love Keith Urban and love this song from Brian Adams

  • @trishhedleyfan I've never heard Bryan Adams do this song. I've only heard it from the Eagles and Don Henley had lead vocals.

  • @calarkie Hey there ya he did . I remember listing to it as a kid , i also heard Don Henley sing it too

  • @trishhedleyfan the song is NOT from Bryan Adams....,-) !!!

  • @72shouter Ok sorry thought it was

  • @72shouter Thanks for clarifying that... I thought I was losing my mind because I've never heard Bryan Adams perform 'Boys of Summer'.

  • remember how you made me crazy, remember how i made you scream....love this song

  • HELLO... people aren't squeling for nothing~

  • Kris and Keith are my ear candy and eye candy!!!!

    Great summer song, enjoyed.

  • brilliant! 

  • Tell Lithorseman to take a shit.This remains a great song.If U don't like country well thats a shame boy.The crowd seemed pleased and so was i.No offence taken n'or givven.Signed:722vash,Antwerp,­Belgium

  • Gosh, I love this.

  • I agree with you 100%! I read a recent article where Keith was interviewed and he had nothing but love and praise for Kris. He said he thinks Kris is a great vocalist, artist, and a great guy with a beautiful heart and he loves performing with him! I would love to see them record something together, that would be awesome! :o)

  • with as amazing as Keith is, and how long he's been doing this, it says so very much for Kris that he can hold his own in this duet. I am so proud of him <3

    He's incredible.

  • does anyone know what chords keith urban is playing from 3:00 till 3:19?

  • the eagles' music is based in country and most modern country borrows heavily from late 70's to mid 80's smooth rock music.

  • @nichgq Thanks. It's nice to hear a comment from someone who actually knows a thing or two about music.

  • Keith can make anything sound good! Amazing artist!!!

  • @Lithorseman lol, this isn't even a country song. The original was done by Don Henley who is a rock artist

  • @ocamy24

    Ya :P

    The original is much better and when the Eagles play it live together it's even better.

    Hate it when people have to play cover songs when they are mint the way they are and can't be sung by anyone else...

  • @Jmg1792 Are you kidding me? You didn't enjoy this cover by Keith and Kris? Hello... covers are done all the time and this was a classic case of a cover done so well! Keith and Kris put their own spin on it and it's a way of acknowledging the song and artists that originally perfomed it. By the way, it's not 'mint' as you said, but 'meant'. Covers are great for the original artists and the one's that are covering them. It's a sign of respect and admiration for good music.

  • @calarkie

    No I am pretty sure mint is the right word I am using considering I did not mean 'meant'. I said mint because I meant that it was perfect the way it is and covers would not make it as good as the original.

    But you are right when stating that covers are a way of acknowledgment towards an artist. That being said I do enjoy many covers by many artists but this was not one of those. Like you said they gave it their own spin on it but that spin was not to appealing to me...... =\

  • @ocamy24 Don Henley's music, especially with the Eagles, was more Rock influenced Country. Modern country is more like Pop music from 20 years ago. I don't particularly care for modern country but that's not to say these guys aren't talented. They are. Great cover.

  • @Lithorseman NO, you suck! Keith & Kris are both amazing! And, for your information.... "The Boys of Summer" isn't a country song. It was originally performed by the Eagles way back when. Why are you watching the video if you think Country sucks? Are you another troller that has nothing better to do with your time then to say negative crap about Kris or Keith? Well, sorry to tell you but both of these guys are amazing! You are the loser and the one that sucks!

  • @Lithorseman If you think country sucks...then why are you watching a Keith Urban video?

  • @Lithorseman then why are you watching a video from a Keith Urban concert...?

    sorry but the fact of the matter is that country has been around and popular longer than pretty much any other music style, and It's not going anywhere. So you may wanna try and do a better job of avoiding it than clicking on videos of country artist... Just saying. It's not you're best option.

  • @Lithorseman If you don't like country, don't listen to it. Simple as that.

  • @Lithorseman You're gay

  • @Lithorseman I don't listen to country. At all. But this is awesome.

  • Keep coming back to watch this video...wish I was there...love Keith Urban and Kris Allen together.....can hardly wait until their next concert ....i may just have to find my way there!

  • OMG, I think I'm in drool heaven! My all time favorite performer are Keith and Kris so this was unbelievably amazin! They are both off the chart when it comes to looks, talent, music ability, and overall appeal.. THEY are both beyond yummy and fantastic performers!!!

  • OMG! My 2 favorite yummylicious performers ever! Geez', it doesn't get better then Keith and Kris! They are both amazing!!!  I'm so excited that Keith has invited Kris to open for several of his shows because as he stated, Kris is fun to perform with and and extremely talented and a great guy! You are both my faves and great guys!!! XO

  • These duets is awesome. The sounded so good together.

  • no fricken way! love them both.

  • I love this duet!!!

  • kris allen must be having the time of his life right now, it has to be such an honor to perform with keith urban, one of the greatest performers alive right now. enjoy every minute kris.

  • @davisnapier I agree... I've seen Keith twice live and he is like no other live performer. I've also seen Kris once, They are both so great and I can't wait to see them both again live.

  • This is great! I love Keith and Kris together

    They are hot

  • You know what, I'm not going to argue with you. It's all a matter of taste in different types of music. But when you said that Kris is a nice guy but doesn't really sing that well.... the only thought that came to mind was WTF? Not only is Kris a gifted vocalist, artist, musician, etc... HELLO, he won American Idol!

  • AMAZZZZZING.

  • love it!!!

  • @babiiGurlxo07 If you don't care for Kris you are missing something special! I feel sorry for you! Keith & Kris are the best!

  • @babiiGurlxo07 By the way... "Boys of Summer' is NOT a country song. It was performed by the Eagles way back when. Keith doesn't always do country and isn't all that country anyway. You really don't know much about country music do you?

  • @babiiGurlxo07 You are so wrong! I honestly don't think you like Kris but that's ok, every one has different taste. But when you made the comment that Kris didn't sing very well, ... I was like who the F... is she kidding? Do you not hear this BRIllIANT version of 'Boys of Summer"? Do you honestly think someone that won A.I. and the fact that Keith wanted Kris to open for him as his opening act a factor? Honestly.. you think Kris can't sing well?

  • Love it!

  • OMG!!!  YUMMYLICIOUS!!!!!!!

  • Ok, the new name for these great guys is Kriban! Remember Kradam? Well honestly, I love Kriban even more! Keith & Kris are AWESOME together!

  • @calarkie I have to say that my son created 'Kriban' and I loved it!

  • Kies!! Forever man... Loved the manhug (I'd say mug but...) at the beginning!

  • Hot Damn! It doesn't get any better then Keih & Kris! This was awesome and I love them both!!!

  • ♥♥♥♥♥♥

  • Cool. Keith and Kris both rock. Perfect chemistry. KREITH!!!

  • I'm addicted to this video and to Kris Allen.

    Love minute 2:40 when Kris moves his head a certain way; typical Kris.

    Thank you Keith for bringing up Kris to do the duet with you.

  • Epic, two super stars together.

    KREITH FTW!!!!

  • Thank you so much. Fantastic quality and two of my favorite artists. I want to see more collaborations!

  • This sounds amazing! Anyone know what Keith said at the 2:15 mark?

  • @mom2meli I'm pretty sure:

    Kris sings "remember how you made me crazy?" and

    Keith says "ya did" (bwaa... I LOVE when straight guys flirt with eachother...).... KREITH FTW!!!!

  • They sound GREAT together! Thank you for such a high-quality vid!

    I keep watching 0:45 over and over again when he kind of bounces his head off the mic and Keith's like, "WTF did you do?" LOL

    What is in Kris' back pocket?

  • @CindyKay618 It was a blue wristband so I'm guessing it was from the venue?

    Thanks for the compliment on my video :)

  • @ocamy24 That was a wristband? It's huge! At first I thought it was a little pack of tissues or something. :-)

  • Uhm. Yeah, they need to do a studio version of this song together. Amazing.

  • I really hope the two of them record something together some day or that Keith writes for Kris' next record. The two of them work extremely well together

  • @krisclarkson I wouldn't mind them writing together. Kris is an awesome songwriter. I'd love for them to do an album together. I'd buy it in a minute.

  • @TheRealTwigLA I hear ya! I would be in line waiting for the release if these guys ever collaborated on an album or concert. These 2 guys are my favorite artists! I've seen them both live and they are amazing! What I love about them both is their love of music, their humility, both extremely genuine and humble. They are both hot but don't try to be... it's all about the love of music for them and it doesn't get better then that!

  • Keith and Kris are awesome together, and this is an all-time epic song - and the video is first rate - good sound. THANKS FOR SHARING IT!!!!!
