Allister - To Be With You (Originally by Mr. Big)

[AndresRomeroBlog]

Tyler Wards version is better

[lumyingluo]

nice cover \m/

[88Featured]

I love punk covers.

[TheFunnyMinute]

best cover of this song

[thommybeanz]

great cover version.

[destien]

nice cover

[stonedrocker666]

damn good cover of a damn good song

[mark12345678936]

i listen to this song everyday!XD

[theysayimkennyful]

I like this version coz its more powerful than the original..

But I wish the drums were taking only half the beats they're hitting but the same tempo..

Idk if you got what I meant..

Because the song sounds a little awkward with a 4/4 beat..

[Backpagetear]

i have been following allister for yearsssss since i Was in middle school. I LOVE ALLISTER

[dejareviewer]

Tim went to Eastern IL University

[elementX95]

What allister is this? The japanese band or the one from chicago?

[epikkalypse]

@elementX95 I know they're from the US, so probably the ones from Chicago. the record from which this song was taken is Guilty Pleasures.

[xmzdiegox]

@epikkalypse There is only one Allister. Maybe you guys got confused with the japan situation because they got signed by UNIVERSAL JAPAN where they released "Countdown to Nowhere " and had to move there for a while. Hope this answer ur question. Cheers.

[WhitePowerPatriot88]

@xmzdiegox Actually, there is a Japanese band called Nicotine who also does a cover of this song. The confusion also lies with that fact.

[FriendsDontLie]

@elementX95 its the band from chicago but they had shows in japan so one song is japanese (there might be a few more in japanese but i only know of like one song )

[TonyDanzaFan]

@elementX95 They are the same band you dumb fucks.

.

[elementX95]

@TonyDanzaFan Well you could say that a bit nicer; faggot. I hope you get raped by your dad one more time! PS: dumbfuckS implies that there are MORE people..... but I'm just one person, so who's the dumbfuck here? Lmfao.

[BenjaminSchriener]

@elementX95 The funny thing is, "Japanese" Allister and the Allister from Chicago are the same band. They just got signed to Universal Japan so that's where the released their later stuff. I was confused at first too.

[elementX95]

@BenjaminSchriener Haha yeah I know. Scott's the one who loves Japanese. But I don't see why everyone is so fond of Japan. I mean, okay they sure have great ass technology but every band seems to like Japan. (ie Japanese edition etc etc..)

[babygrlmis]

@elementX95 they're the same Allister. They're from here (I live in Chicago) and they just got really big in Japan. But they're the same! :)

[elementX95]

@babygrlmis Oh cool! Well yeah I think it's easier to get popular in Japan than in the States lol, agree?

[rushforce33]

@elementX95

One of the band members is 1/2 Okinawan...that's how they are popular here in japan....

[alexmatrix1995]

nice cover :D

[pignugent]

Not bad, I'd say overall good job. Still, I don't feel the emotion nearly as much as I do with the Mr. Big version. I never thought this song would sound good with punk. I guess you learn something new every day.

[HeartOfAnimus]

this song is so damn better than the original one.. but the original is also amazing in its way..

[yohkodayo]

細美武士との共演がまた見たいよスコットー

[naga0106]

I didn`t know about Allister well before,only know about sccot murphy because he`s famous in Japan. But now I think their cover is so nice and cool.

[tapPOOH]

lol autotune

[AmyLeigh1995]

This song is amazing! i perfer this to the original, its much more up beat and catchy, this offically beats Mr Big :)

[devilkazuya111]

ppl stop dissing allister if u dont like it just click on another vid its that easy,

hey the guys from allister probably grew up listening to this kinda music and out of respect they'd decided to cover the song and boom this awesome cover comes out,

its good because Mr. bigg's (to be with u) song will be shown to a new generation of kids :) just how i see things i love both versions this and the original

[tamura919]

このボーカルの声好きだわ

[evilnarc]

Someone needs to give this band a big slap on the face for butchering a classic

[XxAkaneGinxX]

@evilnarc if you dont like Allister, why listen? I think that this is a great cover. I love this song. I've heard the "Mr. Big Version" later. and it was way too slow for me. For people who like faster music, jumpier music, punk-pop and shit like that, this cover is pretty damn good. they didnt butcher a classic, they re-did (COVERED IT) so that newer generations could listen to it. If you dont like the cover, then dont fucking listen to it.

[HAPPYPANDA53]

@evilnarc glad to see im not the only who thinks that this version is shit.

[HAPPYPANDA53]

yeah i admit i am a bit of a music snob at times and i may have overreacted last time. i know other musicians like to have thier own interpretations of their favorite songs. i love this song as well but sorry people, this cover is simply terrible.

[john23del]

try paul gilbert's version... its better than this

[arturogol]

I love this version. Thanks for uploading it.

[KawaiiLola]

I'm the one who wants to be with you

Deep inside I hope you feel it too

Waited on a line of greens and blues

Just to be the next to be with you\(^o^)/

[epikkalypse]

right.

[poopootodo]

@HAPPYPANDA53 stop being a music snob. It's unique and well done...not to mention Allister is one of the classiest bands of all-time. I adore it.

[666Amdusias]

@HAPPYPANDA53 shut up stupid dick u obviously have no concept of what "good music" is

keep your uneducated opinion to yourself. moron.

[HAPPYPANDA53]

@666Amdusias anyone who thinks that this qualifies as "good music" is a moron. you want good music i will show you good music. this sure aint it.

[epikkalypse]

@HAPPYPANDA53 I love it how some people are so close-minded when it comes to music. their taste is the only thing that's acceptable and is superior to everyone else's. I respect your opinion, but there's no need to force it on other people.

[micciify]

wO_Ow i love it!.. Love the song, love the band XD it's not too over the top cuz it still made u appreciate the meaning of the song.. They punked it up a bit without ruining it :D

[HeartAttackMan74]

cool

[sannah22]

shit version

[shadowuvintent]

Lies! D:

[skibum101184]

AWESOME VERSION

[PriincessSparkles]

I actually love this version. :3

[Skirmizh]

sounds shit!

[desajunior]

Allister is the best pop punk band ever. I guess that their music is more intelligent than many other punk rock bands

[fenderstratguy]

Awesome job -- different, but still way cool. You didn't wreck a great song; you reinvented it!

[missycool1822]

whahahah

[uptamistik]

OMG!!! Its Freakin Awesome!!!!

[NevBart]

I still prefer the original but this is the best cover I have heard of this song.

[MrStoney420]

awesome cover!!

[larnasaur]

for everyone thats mad cos this version isn't acoustic like its "supposed to be" - thats the point of a cover, to make a song sound different, to see what it would sound like in a different genre. if they played it exactly the same as Mr. Big did, then what would even have been the point of covering it? I personally think this version is awesome, as is the original

[epikkalypse]

thank you!

good to see some people still know how to use their brains.

[Danny191]

@epikkalypse the funny thing is, Mr. Big also play it kinda Rocky at gigs too, not to mentions Paul done a metal version too

[AzzaDutt]

@larnasaur Yeah, I mean let's not forget Paul Gilbert has played a metal version of this song mixed with Ain't Talking 'Bout Love by EVH multiple times.

[baallaack13]

wonderful <3

[KaosZomB23]

The original is great, but I actually prefer this one. I like the vocals, and the overall "punkier" sound.

[slashy04]

@KaosZomB23 then you should listen paul gilberts version

[Sanitarium32]

I really like the vocals, but the rest is a bit out of place imo

[thrashdouche21]

great song !

fuck off i u dont like it ,like go suck on a dick or something

[Unsignedmusic91]

well i am not criticizing the vocals(its superb) but the whole genre of the song is wrong, i mean this sound is supposed ti be acoustic and slow and sung with the feelings(LOOK WHO AM I TO JUDGE A PROFESSIONAL RECORDING ARTIST)!! LOL

[bgoodrick]

Jesus this sucked ass. " Gee guys, ets take a delicate love song and band our heads to it." It's a shame that this junk is the first search result for the real song.

[KC9117]

post modernism everyone

[jennyjenjen80]

very good but it sounds more pop rock to me than punk

[tayla418]

oh my god, i love this song. the original is better, but this is a great cover!

[nomis69]

meh its alright but i prefer paul gilbert metal version from guitar wars

[Gikanks556]

Original Is Always better. But this Is kickass, And I give them Credit for Doing a cover.

[shadowuvintent]

Hells yes! :D

Considering I just came from "Jizz in my pants" I do believe I just did.

[TheOtherWhiteBread0]

This is fucking AWSOME!!

[HallonBoats93]

great :D

[zaLkran]

Any of both is good!

[janiegirlnumber41]

This is a sick cover! I can't stop listening to it!

[swcwilliam]

WOHOOO. this is awesome man

[ATV102]

I LOVE THIS COVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've listened to both the original and the cover, several times. Its pretty clear that this is better in the sence that it is more modern and it appeals to this generation.

But I must agree with "epikkalypse" the original is better with any song that gets re-done.

[3steban427]

I know this isn't really the opinion of most posters here but this has nothing on the original. This guy can't sing half as well as Eric Martin. It's also way too fast. They should have tried to capture the vibe of the old song rather than make it punk. I mean Paul Gilbert's metal version with the Van Halen intro is way way better.

[poopootodo]

The whole point of covering this song is to make it a punk cover. Of course it's going to be faster. I think the integrity of the original is kept fairly intact and is done if a very classy manner.

[DudeWheresMyTalent]

Amazing cover

[hect93]

this song is great

[eiim]

I just love his voice in the beginning - especially at 0:21!!

It's a very cool cover I think.. ^_^

[ffeliciia]

this is maybe better than the orginal :O

[epikkalypse]

true that this is a pretty damn good cover if you like that kind of music. but remember one thing: NOTHING beats the original :)

[stupidsh1t]

I love it!

[6crimson6]

awsome!!!

[ThePunisher2004]

schade, dass es die band nicht mehr gibt!

[sandrafontinha]

The best version have ever heard...

[eiim]

This song is really good! :D

[4nkee]

love this song!

[Xcountryrunner180]

wow, this song absolutely kicks ass! just as good, if not better, than the original! def. good cover!

[blabbermonster]

pretty good cover...

mr. big has a cooler acoustic sound

but this is kinda cool.. an unstripped version :D

[baallaack13]

haaammaa qeeeeill =)

[Wowa17]

Where can I download this song???

[Mangvai]

use filsh oO?

[Mangvai]

to wowa17 again :P : use filsh XD

[Wowa17]

jaja danke man! aber ich habe das Lied schon.

Aber das programm merke ich mir.

[greendayfan1986]

excellent cover,really like it

[eMoPunKeeguitar]

AMAZING.

[eusoudemente]

This version is better than original *-* luv it!

[traQQua90]

I'm a longtime Mr big fan. I gotta say that this cover is not bad!

[SammyLou999]

mr big is ehy better! this sux! i wanted to here mr big!!

[epikkalypse]

then you should have searched for "mr. big". or have a look at the first related video.

[RequiscatInPace]

It's an OK cover... I mean... haters... lets face it... They COULD have done a lot worst... I kind of like it... It's just not the same when it's not acoustic..

[Garettenator]

Well you know the world has gone to shit when some Emo fag band does a cover of an all time great song. These guys couldn't hold one member of Mr. Big's jock. Let alone the whole band. Whoever let them record this should be shot repeatively.

[epikkalypse]

emo?

go fuck yourself.

[YoungLoveLeroy]

repeatively? Did you mean repeatedly?

[eMoPunKeeguitar]

seriously, dick.

[ixrock2fastxforxlove]

I think I have a new favourite song that is a cover!  :)

[Julla123]

omg <3

[thatchicknamedkty]

<3 this song

[Thiaguinhoside]

The best Song *-*

[rundrown555]

I love both versions, no matter what haters say, :)

[V3V3R4K]

the best song

[HellFireAndBrimstone]

Doesn't sound good with that depressed voice. But nowadays all good songs are being ruined by being played in the wrong genres. What can you do?

[aganieszkka]

awesome!

[AniiHa1]

wow.. o_Ô

so qeiiL !!

[iggie16]

this is a solid song

[neoblackcyptron]

the songs pretty good, faster than the original. good song to play while driving on the highway with your girl by your side

[bazzy66]

the song u r looking for is "Highway to hell" =)

[c00l0ser1121]

hahahaha!!! lmao! good one! lmao =D

[objordal]

haha. :]

[halibali0717]

Its ok. I love the song though:) Mr big rocks

[whinywhiteboy]

they sa that imitation is the best form of flattery, and besides its good to remake the classics as long as they dont suck

[Trestin67]

sigh* this was suppose to be a love song, i still like the solo though but its a bit to fast =3, they should make a cover of green tinted sixties mind

[Trestin67]

it's a ballad, why cover it with punk? or pop?, uhhh, they shudnt change the genre of the song, it's like they are making fun of mr. big

[Frankie242424]

why not?? it's always better when there's more vorsions of some song... everybody cal like that song... i personally like the original but i dont like the chorus there so im glad my fav band made a cover of it :P

[f4phantom2500]

paul gilbert himself plays different versions of this songs, even a metal version.

[asperheim07]

i like thsi version, i'm not saying it's better than Mr.Big's original version, but like people allready has said, it different, and that's cool :) and, it doesent have to be excatelly like the original, they're making their own version you know! It's like taht In Flames should ghave made their cover of Land Of Confusion like the orgiginal, that just wont work!

[helegoed]

Horrible cover, thats what bands are about these days.

[michaelvickfan12345]

sucks. he ruined mr.bigs song..you asshole.

[rupe3000]

i was sceptical....but it's a great cover. maybe i've got a pop punk deep inside that wants to get out!

[arturogol]

aguante loco!

excelente cover!

[Issirit]

nice cover :) i like it

[enmarsbar]

hmm. well I will have to say that this cover sukcs. not just because pop/punk is quite annoying. but fair try..

still I hate this version.. Rock n' Roll kicks!

[Jussivaan]

this is way better than the original

[kennylee84]

I personally like the fast tempo of this version, it's gives a contrast to the ballad version by Mr. Big.

[higorpatronum]

fuck pop punk

sucks

[elmo696]

omg awesome punk cover!

[ericwagner22]

I pesonaly like it.You gotta respect the fact that they re-wrote a whole song.

[666AmyLynnLee666]

lol in my opinion THIS SUCKS! :)))))))) and i laughed at it...really...:) just listen to his voice...cmmon...=]]]]]] i don't even want to compare it to the original...damn...:))))

[epikkalypse]

one of the few things I like in this world is the difference of musical tastes of different people.

it would just be boring if we all liked the same type of music.

some of us like poppunk and in my opinion this cover is the king of pop-punk covers :)

[666AmyLynnLee666]

well...as i said: " IN MY OPINION " :) when it comes to music tastes, i don't wanna talk about it....we all have different point of view on that, so i'm not gonna argue that topic at all. But i just wanted to say that when i first heard it i was disappointed, EVEN THOUGH my favourite type of music is punk/rock/metal... Anyways, it is perfectly done in the sense of professionalism ( the music & the vocal) BUT i personally feel disgusted by this version :) lol i talk too much.. :)

[epikkalypse]

well I don't want to argue either and I guess what I wanted to say is that back when I put up this song I never expected every viewer to like it you know.

you don't like it? ok, no problem. :)

[Back2BackJack]

I like pop/punk music, but this cover makes this song sound so generic, it loses it's appeal.

[CheeseyPancakeMan]

how come you cant download this song on limewire?

[m0deeh]

I downloaded this on limewire...

just type to be with you and allister on the artist

[quyda]

This cover sucks!

[KittarawrR]

one word : WOW o.o

[YukneeknGenuine]

Nice song.... Good creativity. The guitar solo sucks compared to the original. I can digg, but in my opinion, he should've gone distortion crazy at the end of the solo, and kill it. But he didn't! So it's a little dissapointing... Did I spelled that right? lol! I always mess up on my spelling.....

[talhashahidk]

haha.. yeah!

[N1SSE91]

Its supposed to say Allister - To Be With You (Mr. Big Cover)

;)

[pattiway102]

couldnt seem to find it at limewire. :(

[FilipeGuitarist]

amazing cover! 5*

[Jimmymacr]

Why are the drums necessary?

[SykoSaint]

I guees to make it a little diffrent but still over all it's not bad but the original is still better

[Tw1st3d9sych0]

good cover of a good song :)

[skibum101184]

Isn't there a live version of Allister playing this song somewhere out here in YouTube world?

[epikkalypse]

I couldn't find ANY video (live, official, fanmade...) of this song on youtube. that's why I uploded it myself in the first place.

if somebody finds a live version please let me know.

[skibum101184]

I swear I found one a week or so ago (may not have been Allister) but it was a punk/rock cover on a TV show

[SuicdeAya]

awesome!

Allister rocks <3

[santino66608]

Thats fucking awesome

made a good song better!!!

[666AmyLynnLee666]

"made a good song better!?!" IT RUINED IT! i love punk/rock/metal but this sucks! honestly...huh anywayZ that's my opinion...:P

[Lilafeee]

gooood song.

[szwag]

Great cover

[Haeinscute]

awesome, taking a great song and making it equally as awesome with a nice punk/rock sound, if not even better than the original.

[epikkalypse]

if you like this one then go listen to Me First And The Gimme Gimmes. they're all about punk/rock/ska covers of great old songs.

[musicnice10]

It is not better than the original. No where close to, therefore it isn't equally awesome.

It still is pretty nice too though

[mae3865]

wicked!!

[Aeroheadv1]

No place for a punk cover? I actually like this version better, something to rock to. The original was good too, but it was difficult to rock out to an acoustic pop rock ballad...

[NightfallPowerMetal]

But the original had Paul Gilbert! lol

[Aeroheadv1]

Touche?  Hahaa!

[fragglerawkor]

holy fuck this is amazing...i love allister and the original song...this is godly.

[suphadupha]

nothing but black

[epikkalypse]

my aim was to share this great song with the people on you tube, not making a video for it.
