  • As the old cliche' goes about not judging a book by its cover. I saw this dude and thought "ruhh rohh...crappy karaoke to come" because he looks like a high school history teacher or insurance salesman. THEN he opens his mouth and completely KICKED ASS!!! Great job! Just goes to show you can still "dress respectable" and be a rocker at heart.

  • @JimHadar1 I know I don't (or ever did) look the part but you said it, I've always been a rocker at heart. Thanks for taking the time to listen and for your comment. It's nice to know the video is still making the rounds 4 years after it's original post. Cheers, Chris

  • Oh dude, is amazing! I want to sing like you! Look at my covers of the cult, and see how hard I put ! You do great.

  • @EuropeanMusicChannel Thank you very much. I took a listen to your covers and they are great. Thanks for giving mine a try and keep up your efforts.

  • I bet this guy used to be the lead singer of The Cult...

  • @headboil If only. Then I wouldn't have to work for a living. Thanks for watching.

  • amazing, you got talent!

  • Wow!!! Totally didn't expect that! Very cool!

  • @SingingCindy Many thanks. I try to give the audience the unexpected. This happened to work out and I'm glad you enjoyed it. Take it easy, Chris

  • Wow! Dude rocked it...RESPECT!

  • @dralion111 Hey, thanks a lot. Not all karaoke audiences will sit still for this but when they do I try to give what they expect. Thanks for the view and take it easy. Chris

  • Well, this certainly proves that you can't judge a book by its cover! I was waiting for a laugh. Instead, a great rendition of a great song. Well done!

  • @Rayven10 Thanks for taking a shot at the vid. 90% of music is visual and I know I don't look the part so I try to make it up with the remaining 10%. If you want to see an attempt to actually make you laugh you might check out my latest video on my home page. It's a comedy about a washed up rock star trying to make his last stand. Thanks again and I hope you enjoy it. Chris

  • @crazykaraoke Looking "cool" is more about the way you dress and the way you wear your hair. You could look like a rock star if you tried. I also feel like it should be pointed out that David Byrne (Talking Heads) is one of the dorkiest looking mofos on the planet, and he was exceptionally famous in the 80's.

  • Pleasantly surprised! Well done guy! I have to agree with another poster that the F/X are distracting. Props for the chops!

  • @tammyhickman Thanks Tammy. I'm glad you enjoyed the vid, distractions and all. Can't change it now. Take it easy, Chris

  • sing ass-kicking songs like this in karaoke is very unusual. People usually sing boring stuff, but this is great song and awesome performance. Respect man!!!

  • @Rudykri87 Thanks Rudy. I agree about what gets sung at karaoke. Ballads are nice and I sing them too but mainly I look to rock the house down. I'm glad you enjoyed it and thanks for the view. Chris

  • WOW!! You do a better job singing live, than Ian did!! I'd watch you sing karaoke!!

  • You're on. Anytime you're in the So. Cal area then let me know. We'll head out to the local karaoke bar and show them how it's done. Thanks for your great comment and the view. Chris

  • Great job! Man that is one helluva rock star outfit you got on!!!

  • Thanks a bunch. Yes, the outfit. What can I say, my sequined jumpsuit was in the cleaners. But hey, I'm glad you enjoyed it and I thank you for the view and comment. Chris

  • haha - well done pal. Whenever I go a Karaoke I prefer see this sort of stuff than all that slow sloppy stuff. How's your AC/DC??

  • Hi there Stoke. I agree. Everybody seems to do the sleepy-time tunes at karaoke and then I wake them up with some rock. I've done AC/DC but don't have any videos. I might get around to doing a home recording for posting in the future. Thanks for the listen and comment. Take it easy, Chris

  • lmao, I was looking for a cult version when i stumbled on this, OMFG !!!! Dude if I am the first, I surely will not be the last to say you kick ass! Have to say I hate the f/x in the vid but that might just be me so keep it up and rock on, you made my day.

  • Hi there Drink. I do appreciate your comment. I sang this in front of an audience that was looking more for Sinatra than Cult but I know I had fun. Others have commented about the FX. I was trying to liven up the vid but I guess it really didn't need it. But, hey, I'm glad you enjoyed the singing and thanks for taking a listen. Chris

  • Hey man! you really have a magnificent voice!!

    good luck

  • I never heard it put that way but I'll take it. Thanks a bunch for the view and comment. Take it easy, Chris

  • HELL YEA!! AWESOME

  • Thanks reddawg. I appreciate your view and comment. Cheers, Chris

  • @crazykaraoke Do the guys at THE OFFICE know that u moonlight as a "ROCKSTAR?"

  • Ha ha, that's funny. Good thing I own the office so nobody to answer to. Take it easy, Chris

  • jajaja! Yeaah! You Rock man! really good. Great song. Congrats from México.

  • Thank you very much. It was great fun to sing and a pleasure to present. I'm glad you enjoyed it. Take it easy and cheers from the North. Chris

  • this is awesome on 5 different levels, each level surpassing the last.

    Kudos to you sir for being awesome

    Keep on rocking!

  • Well thanks a lot for the great comment. Nothing like a little rock to get the house moving. I'm glad you enjoyed. Take it easy, Chris

  • HELL YEAH MANNNNN \m/

    You must of worked at JP Morgan and did tons of coke during the bull market in the 80s ... hell yeah mannn rock and roll \m/

    Not bad you did good on this Karaoke

  • You got it close. It was actually real estate but never had the coke habit. Still, you gotta love the 80's. Thanks for checking this out. Chris

  • Chris you have a "cult" following of your own HAHA. Awesome. Hey, can i request "lil devil?" Happy new year

  • Hi there Dr Deano. I admit I didn't expect this response when I first posted the video, of which I am very grateful. I know Lil Devil but I don't have a karaoke backing for it. Sorry. Maybe one day I'll sing it at a karaoke bar, if they have it, and post a live recording like this one. Thanks for the view and happy new year to you too. Chris

  • jejeje excelent!!!!!! he does so good yeahh man! fireeeee

  • Good job1 i am impressed. Now if only I can get my dad to sing that song instead of his Merle Hagard or Walon Jennings LOL

  • From Hagard/Jennings to The Cult. Now that's something I would want to see! I'm glad you enjoyed the rocker and thanks for the view. Cheers, Chris

  • Great job man, Hard song to sing by the Cult my fav band and you did a great job! Congrats to you :-) I couldn't do karaoke lol...you are great and you have the nerve for it not me lol...kudos to you dude!!!

  • Thanks a bunch firechick. I admit my first time on stage was a little nerve racking. Not at all like when I was in a band. That settled quickly and now I can't get enough of it. I'm glad you enjoyed it and keep rocking. Chris

  • Thought this was actually the Cult. Clicked on the link without looking and had the video open in another tab. You are good sir.

  • Well I never got mistaken for the real thing. That's a complement and a half and I sure thank you for it. It may have been by accident but thanks for the view and I'm glad you enjoyed. Take it easy, Chris

  • Would love to have you at my Karaoke bar...lol...nicely done!

  • It would be an honor to join the fun at your bar. Thanks for the comment and I'm glad you enjoyed the show. Chris

  • Dude....you can sing !!! NICE !!

  • Hey thanks man. The audience was singing Sinatra all night and I figured they needed a wake up call. Thanks for catching it. Chris

  • hahaha wow! did not expect that!  that was very good

  • Thanks Grim. I often get that reaction. I get a kick seeing a surprised look from the audience. I'm glad you enjoyed it and thanks for making it a fav. Chris

  • Well thank you for the kind words. I was in a band around the college years but now I just settle for a little fun. It's hard work singing every night! lol. Chris

  • dude, quit your dayjob

  • Now that's a funny comment. Turns out I've quit so many jobs I lost count. The day will come when I quit my last job and go on a world wide karaoke tour. Thanks for the comment and take it easy. Chris

  • I'm thrilled you're enjoying the vid. I was in a band many years ago. I played bass and did back up singing. Those days are gone gut I still get a kick singing at karaoke. Thanks for the visit and take it easy, Chris

  • Thanks a ton. Not it's not easy but I was determined to stay focused and get through it undamaged. Glad you liked it and thanks for the view. Chris

  • more proof you cant judge a book by its cover - good job dude!

  • hahahaha...gotta give him his prop's - he feel'in it!!!!!

  • Ha ha, that's funny Lizi. The room was getting a little heated. Thanks for the view. Chris

  • dude burn this shit up!!! fiiiiirrrre!!!!!

  • Sounds like a plan to me. Thanks for stopping by.

  • Keep the good music alive!

  • You got it. I do what I can and thanks for the view. Chris

  • Wow mama.. this guy put the fire in this restaurant... good job. .. Rock fuck ...

  • Hey, thanks Weircem. The restaurant owner said he had to kick up the AC for the rest of the night to disburse all that heat. Good thing he didn't charge me for the extra juice. Take it easy, Chris

  • wow. you did a great job on that song! rock on!!

  • Sometimes it does take going over the top to get the audience attention. I'm glad you liked the show and thanks for the view. Chris

  • yeah, good mix - and I like IAN - my wife thinks otherwise, but hey, an old biker like me dosn't pay much attention unless it is worthy - you qualify.

  • All the more reason to give thanks to for the view and comment. I'm glad it measured up. Chris

  • yeah, we do try - and you might not like my karaoke of pat benatar's 'Dreammaker' = here I see something much better, this fellow can do it. Why don't we see real talent like this on American Idol (and the obvious answer - he's not an american...) Awesome effort and video, what is not to like?

  • I'm much obliged for your kind words. I am American by the way but I'm way beyond the age limit set by American Idol. Not a problem for me though. I'm pretty settled in what I really do for a living. But there's always time to rock! Thanks and take it easy, Chris

  • You seriously rock man, seriously.

    Long life to 80s songs

  • I'm with you. It all seemed to come together in the 80's. Thanks for the comment and I'm glad you enjoyed it.

  • great job. Nice pipes didnt care for the video graphics didnt need it :)

  • Hi there Odonata. I sure appreciate your comments. I admit I tried to spice up the video a bit. I guess it was a little distracting. Oh well, live and learn. Thanks for the view and I'm glad you enjoyed it. Take it easy, Chris

  • ahah nicely done sir

  • Hi there Nana. I'm glad you enjoyed the video and I thank you for the comment. Take it easy, Chris

  • well you could blow me over with a feather! you know, to look at ya, your relatively unasuming. then you crank that out and... well... that was really good!

  • Hello ragssplat. True, I know I don't look the part but when ya gotta rock, ya gotta ROCK! I'm glad you enjoyed and thanks a bunch for the view. Chris

  • it wasnt bad!!! :D

  • Thank you Mrs Lugosi. It's nice to know I can "count" on hearing you enjoyed it. :) So long, Chris

  • So this is you eh? Your not bad mate you have the right voice for this song as it needs lots off kick to sound good. Cult rule and this is a good performance. BRING THE 80s BACK!!!

  • Thanks HyperNova. Yep, that's me. I'm glad you enjoyed this. I wasn't sure how it would come out live but I guess the live atmosphere helped. I'm with you ... long live Cult and the 80's!

  • just a lil more alcohol and its perfect :P

  • Do you for me or for you? Ha ha! There was a drink on my table I didn't get to yet. That was my reward for getting through the tune. Thanks for the view/ and comment and take it easy, Chris

  • You kick ass Chris! You've got a wonderful voice and a sense of adventure. Keep it up.

  • Thank you very much Tiffany. I do my best. See ya, Chris

  • yeah man nice job, i play this with one of my bands and its just a fun kicking song

  • Hi there Shadow. This is one fine tune to do live. I'm sure I would get a kick out of singing with your band. I sand a few times (other tunes) with a live karaoke band. What a blast that was. Thanks for the view. Chris

  • I hope all is well with you and yours, out there in C.A., during this economic downturn. Heidjin is right!!! So right, I think you really should consider going on America's Got Talent, and blowing them away with THIS song!!! You've got my vote!!!

  • Thanks for the encouragement Sgt. I can sure use the cash prize and a headline show in Vegas wouldn't be shabby either. Let me give that some thought. In the mean time, thanks for viewing my vid and I'm glad you enjoyed it. Cheers, Chris

  • tHIS GUY ROCKS!

  • Hi there Tiffany. The crowd seemed to enjoy it and it was a blast to do. Thanks for the view. Chris

  • I look again...and again I say...

    Nice Job!

  • Well thanks sixpack. It's great to see you again and I sure do appreciate it. Cheers, Chris

  • Great job dude! You rock!!

  • what do you know. It's FireWoman herself. Good to see you and I'm glad you enjoyed. Thanks. Chris

  • Nice job. Gonna start a band and amaze the world ????

  • Thanks sixpack. I was in a band some time ago. Now I keep it with karaoke and rock out when I get a chance. Take it easy, Chris

  • Honestly i think you're singing this better than Ian nowadays lol. I haven't seen Ian sing the high ntoes like this in along long while..you sound wow. I'm amazed I agree quite a set of pipes!

  • Well thank you very much for those nice words. I think I would sound more like Ian does now if I had to sing it night after night. Ha. Take care and thanks again. Chris

  • good job

  • Thanks. I appreciate it.

  • I never comment on videos, but this is a real good karaoke, very well done i dont like the graphic effects but good job to the singer

  • Well thank you very much. I'm proud to be the recipient of one of the few comments you make. I admit I did try to beef up the video but I'm happy you enjoyed the show. Cheers, Chris

  • Figured this was a bad joke, but its actually really, really good.

  • Thanks for giving it a try Frank. I do have a few "joke" posts up but I always try to deliver the goods. Take it easy, Chris

  • A Finnish radio host recommended this video today on radio after this song was played. And it sure was worth watching :)

  • No kidding! That's more than I ever expected. My thanks goes to the DJ for the recommendation and to you for the view. I'm glad you found it enjoyable. Take care, Chris

  • lol

  • thanks for the view

  • Way better then those American Idol cheese balls!!!

  • Thanks a bunch. If not for being over the age limit I would have tried the Idol show. But I'm pretty happy right here on youtube. I'm glad you enjoyed and thanks. Chris

  • you've got quite a set of pipes on you sir lol

  • Thanks ROckin. I try to keep them in shape. You know ... for emergencies! lol. Thanks for stopping by. Chris

  • Where is this guy I want to sign him up!!

  • Let me just clear up a few things and I'm ready to start the tour.

  • Very surprising, and entertaining.

  • Thanks very much. I always do one screamer per karaoke night. Glad you enjoyed. Chris

  • Thank you stirfry. This was a trip and a half. Cheers, Chris

  • no offense but I wasn't expecting that because frankly you look like my old science teacher but I guess you can't judge a book by it's cover. You rocked it!

  • Hi there. Somehow I missed your comment. Science teacher huh? Pretty funny. I'm glad you enjoyed it though. Thanks for the view. Chris
