The Shadows- Theme for Young Lovers and Sleepwalk

[mmorkester1]

Dont think about some mistakes, he he, it is from mistakes people learn. I play now aktiv over 40 years and still making mistakes........he he Keep going

[2001perseus]

Just checked some, indeed you have progressed and progressed well. Hope your still going boys.

[2001perseus]

Always a mammoth task to cover legends but 10 out of 10 for having the taste and talent to have a damned good go at such a young age. The audience response speaks for itself, they loved you mistakes or no mistakes and so did I. Now gonna see if I can find more of your vids and see how you've progressed since this was two years ago.

[themerseyshadow]

HI PLEASE CHECK OUT MY TUTORIAL SHADOWS  DVDS IT WILL HELP YOU OUT A LOT themerseyshadow

[stratmangb]

hi you really need to have another isten to the record ,the timings wrong the drums wrong rhythm and wrong notes and chords ..But keep it up you will get there in the end

[GlastoElliot]

Excellent!

[sugarhana]

That was lovely. If only you could play at my prom....

[jimincairns]

Nice job, guys! The suits certainly set you apart from the rabble, and while the guitar playing is a little shaky at times, it's a bloody good effort.

[wizardalvin]

the background sound is distracting until you found the harmony and speed. then very good. what ever you do, set up that immediate sync at the start. be together (snap) @ the start. i like

[AlanJarvisMusic]

Great love it!

[rsmotta2262]

Bravi ragazzi, provate a suonare i pezzi di LOS BELKINGS

[fincaman2]

Keep it up great to see youth playing good stuff but I don't agree that Tokais are better than Fenders

[fergusof]

OMG! OM Frickin' G! I thought I was listening to an early '60's amateur film of the Shadows. You guys are amazing! Keep it up! Sincerely, a Shadows fan from Canada.

[charlemagne762]

I thought it was brilliant. Keep up the good work. Really enjoyed it. Nice that some young people are spending their time like this rather than wandering the streets.

[redfenderguy]

why is the lead guitarist playing it like that??????? pause after each note

[baxio3rod]

Hey guys, you're good. Brush up on the "Stage Presence" a bit and have the bass player on the left and the rhythm in the middle and it'll look more balanced. Try to do without the sheet music as it tends to fix the rhythm and bass to the same spot.

The lead guitar has a really nice touch and you've got your Strat set up very nicely. Keep going guys you've got a good sound...Well done all of you...!!

[greenhoolig]

Learn!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[usetheroute93]

i think it's well done! i play some of the shadows my self :D but it must be SO nice to play with the other guys :D

[goodier100]

Keep goin Lads , take no notice of the no mark remarks you are very good

[Piksson]

First time I've seen an amateur band play the shadows on a really decent level :D I hope by now you have achieved perfection :D

[nortru]

Great performance ,,congratulations , you can try to see Los Belkings from Peru ,,beauty band too

[natgroup45]

Hi Onlyofyoubavd !!

Very well played, compliments.

Regards.

Nathan M.

[asafbeeri]

VERY GOOD.Work on the following points:

Coordinating your "choreography".

Smooth and quick transition from song to song (all the sheet music has to be on the stand BEFOREHAND).

Public address: speak more slowly and clearly.

Stand closer together, as a band, not as Soloist and accompanists.

Sound is great, you are very musical as an ensemble!

[ireland1957]

Great sound for Theme for Young Lovers fellas; keep going.

Very nice for ones so young.

[rockotto727]

Nice!

Look up "tema para jovenes enamorados"

Los Belkings, it's a good cover also.

[naturegirl130]

You are only 16 and 14 years old? Wow! You are already very good. Wish I could have been at that OAP party so that I could hear you without the distortion. Though I am much too young to have been invited. Keep up the good work.

[Finnleysen]

Das ist die Melodie des Liedes "Ich werde Dich lieben bis zum Tod" von Marlene Dietrich (auch gecovert von "Nena"). Cool!

[sandrocduarte]

banda de baile..... Ballroom dancing band

[sasstruff]

i think ur doing great! it's much harder than it looks ;)

[spookymoo]

needs a lot of work on the sound. Way too distorted.

[petergeorge2]

I think its great, I'm over 50 years old and just starting to learn the guitar. Love the shadows and glad you do too..thanks for posting these vids... hope you dont get to disheartened with other peoples comments.....Pete.

[quarnen]

How can this shit be so high rated?? The most dreadful sound ever heard and badly played. Just a mess.

[momarmarmo]

5***** Moma

[tankertel]

Too Loud turn the preamp down...

my ears are bleeding... Terry x

[TheHibeat]

Sorry lads - you messed up Sleep Walk. Also, the sound is so loud it sounds overdriven.

[CallHerRoro]

My dad and I can play this.

I do the lead.

That was pretty good, btw. :D

Wonderful classic!

[ChuckMustaine]

Very Impressive!

[anttyj]

This video reminds me of our first attempts at The Shadows' music in 1963/64. It's a good try, but really playing together only comes with time. We really didn't play well together until 1965. Anyway, it's wonderful to see the younger generation playing the music that will last forever! Thanks for posting this video!

[usfansw]

In Australia there was a 1960's band "The Echoes" who were doing Shadows songs so well. They used u/v lights and other FX. It was magic.

Lighting is so important. Good luck guys with your sounds - you are on the right track.

[doughnazi]

Love Sleepwalker, one of their best. Would love you guys to play at my parents 50th wedding anniversary. Pity your not in Australia.

You're sensational!

[bladesmark2]

Sleepwalk was originally done by Santo & Jonny,absolutally love the tune.

[53rdtird]

Why is it when someone's recording there's always some jackass hacking or coughing in the back, lmao

You guys sound Great :D

[fullwood13]

Guys, make no apologies for your age or talent, you dudes rock!! And its also great to see that younger guys are still tuned in to great music enough to try playing it. Keep it up, it sounds great.

[onlyofyouband]

Thanks!!!!

We are currently in the process of forming a covers band to play local pub etc, now that we are 18. We will be doing some shadows, and have practised some beatles, status quo, fleetwood mac this week, so will hopefully have some more vids soon!

anyone got any ideas of some covers we could do???

Cheers for all the comments!!!

[fwad23]

Ventues toons!

[redfenderguy]

@fullwood13 be even better if they played it correctly

[The1942vaforster]

If you wish to emulate Hank Marvin & The Shadows, LISTEN, LISTEN & LISTEN over and over again for the phrasing. What I hear is disappointing to say the least.

[ahshanti1]

this came up on my recommendations and I like theme for young lovers good rendition.

Sleepwalk a bit of a bland tune not one of the shadows best. but well played.

[videosrecuerdos]

If  you want hear a good performance of this song without mistakes go to " videos recuerdos " and find The Jet Blacks.

[goodwoods007]

The SHADOWS does not make such mistakes... Sorry, but I hear it.

IVAN.

[onlyofyouband]

yer there may be a few mistakes, but we had very limited time to learn all the songs we played, i fink these 2 we learned on the day, it was also the first time most of us had played on stage.

And thanks for the comments everyone!

[rrlcruz]

I like the raw vibe here..plus the lead guitars stage presence rocks!

[braybeatles]

wicked stuff maan. too cool

[pruata]

Los Belkings del Perú la tocan mucho mejor

[JuanMoreforeDeRhode]

Very nice guys. Now you just need to choreograph some steps while you are playing and you've got it!

[Slimcase85]

Very good.

[heezabirddog]

you boys are fuckin good! i would like to here you now 2 years down the line. Keep i comin

[Baskerville22]

Excellent

[tuey69]

Great Performance guys!!!

[mcul2112]

Guys...that's good stuff. You guys have great tones comin outta there...and really good playing. Plus, excellent taste in music. Good shit! Keep going!

[bdoufc]

Thats brilliant guys.

You've all probably improved from this but just keep and ear on that timing and consider your stage presence as a band cuz music like this can go places.

I loved it boys.

look up Brian Setzer Orchestra - Sleepwalk

[Trigsbroom]

Cracking performance!

[DisfiguredCowboy]

Haha, that's awesome.

[Oztraylea]

wow ...16 and 14 year old kids doing the shadows....that in itself is good to know that kids still like the shadows....

and to play them aswell as you guys did....

10 thumbs up from me...

kudos

[lulutotom718]

what can I say, it's just plain Shadows except that you need to work on the timing. I love u boys. Keep it up n enjoy.

[shadfan66]

Fantastic performance, I believe i can tell the difference in the middle 8 where you have added a little of yourselves. Otherwise this is spot on

[twoslices]

Love it.We need more instrumental bands like this.

[elcaporale]

write "hernan sleepwalk" great version!!

[Omarcio25]

yo tengo una banda y tocamos estos temas pero a nosostros nos sale mejor.

[tonyhgv]

what a great sound ..as others said just work on your timing ..but great vid

[juanjosebv]

muy bien el

tema

que además es de

una melodía hermosa

le han

inyectado fuerza

[306344]

Excelente sonido e interpretacion.

[deniro4040]

increible,la piel de gallina,video en directo de los wenos wenos wenisimos,de coleccionista vamos...

[inshreds66]

Guys, if that is really you playing on this clip, then it is brilliant, you've got the sound dead right. The lead guitar, rhythm and evrything is spot on. Just tighten up. really good. Now go to Japan and make millions!!!

[sparky160uk]

Good job for a band of 14 -16 year olds - i expect your well good now as you have had more practice since this was posted in 2006.

well done

[jon2009xx]

you give the shadows a bad name learn to play first it sound s**t

[thomson1974]

You need to work on the timing but the sound is there, with a little more practice you could more like the shadows than the shadows! Keep it up!

[doughnazi]

Very challenging fellas. Good to see young guys appreciate the romance Hank was able bring into his music.

Any more recent stuff by the Jet Blacks on the tube???

[Thoms5436]

nice work guys

[jazzmanal]

Outstanding Guys!!!!! Your register is very hard to track on you tube, BUT, you sound great. And when it comes to live music, we know what often happens to timing. For those of you who dont know, figure it out prior to posting foolish comments.

Keep up the good work and practice hard. I would like to say " I saw those guys on you tube years ago!"

[chuckler1]

You are very talented but you need to practice your timing more together. Great guitar work. Thank you. I enjoyed listening.

[twoslices]

Nice guitar sound! I always liked this tune.

[loserkid19pe]

Theme for Young Lovers by preuvian bands belking's

[lhall234]

OK, but a far cry from Santo and Johnny.

[gloriouskodachrome]

more great work..

[TheEliminators]

Nice work lads. Keep practicing...

[kevinbattyboy]

This is pretty good, sleepwalk is not easy to play at all and it shows the talent of these youngs guys, keep up the good work

[guitarjed]

Nice stuff guys , helps to keep this great music alive, well done!!!!

[geoffr25]

Excellent stuff guys!! Keep it up...you make that Strat almost talk!!

[bonus43]

Keep up the good work lads,you are doing great.

[adipresley]

Dude,im waiting for ur new video with the Shadows's song now,come on...you already did a good job before!

[MidnightMinstrel]

Your doing just GREAT!! (and as you have no doubt discovered, Hank makes it look easier than it really is). It's Great that youngsters like yourselves are doing this stuff and keeping it alive and playing it so well. I Loved your Version of Sleepwalk. I myself play Hanks Live version of Sleepwalk (see 'The Strat Pack DVD')I'm desperate for a backing track for this longer version as I want to play it at my daughters wedding this year.can anyone help? Anyway, nice playing, keep the band going!

[anttyj]

Something good will eventually come out of this... however, you should not advertise this as "The Shadows" even if true 'aficionados' will not be fooled for longer than one second.

There's musicianship among the group, anyway...

[hsmisgreatforever]

just okay

[hydna1968]

You guys are great - keep this up and you'll all go a long way!

[DONNYBE197]

embarassment to yourselves -

[olla9999]

oh shut up...they got skills. not bad, not bad at all.

[jonnypatrick145]

eat it dude, what should they sound like every other crap metal or emo band, broden your taste or go live under a rock donnybe197, donny be shutting the hell up if he knows whats good for him!!

great job guys:)

[thomson1974]

A bit of work needed but the lead guitarist does sound like hank! Keep it up guys!

[HermannGoering]

Loved it Guys. I was around 45 years ago when it was all new. This is a fabulous take on the songs and you really have the "feel" for the Music. Keep it up and Thanks.

[tikimania]

wow...

[booktop]

Good work, keep it up.

[abehayoun]

Hank Marvin, any comments?

[tcr18h]

Great cover. Hope these guys keep it up..

[JuanDeSoCal]

Really nice overall sound. Good reverb tone. You guys have good taste in music too. the band overall could tighten up some. Also, I don't think the guitars are completely in tune with eachother. The lead player impresses most right now. BUT, you guys are 14? You have plenty of time to get that stuff worked out. Keep it up and you'll be tight and happening.

[adipresley]

damn,so raw & pure Shadows video here..i like this man...

[xpetruccix]

cool,super

[boerborn]

Great preformance guys! I really loved it.

If Norrie Paramor was still around he would sign you up.

[ggigie]

For a group of young lads to appreciate music of The Shadows is awesome enough. Very cleancut and 60s! Carry on, guys!

[shelly10538]

You guys are fantastic, you really got the sound right. I can't believe your so young and that good already.

[eshewerethin]

excellent, the phrasing of the main theme is changed a bit.

[nadavgalimidi]

Rhythm guitarist messes up @ 00:26 to 00:31 or is it just me?

[adipresley]

no,my ears also got that...

[pab70]

First prize in the raffle tonight,is a diving suit.

Eh?

Sorry,first prize in the raffle tonight,is a divan suite.

[copewood333]

The pies and peas have arrived.

[jimusgrimus]

bollocks!

[dollybird1]

5 stars brill love sue

[drgodinho]

5/5!!!

keep up the good work!

[andysam9]

My name's andy garland too, fuckin eh

[1248fixx]

Is the drummer any relation to the Fixx guitarist?

[creamofcardstv]

Your video clip is great and I've rated it as awesome. Please check out mine on some trading cards or 1960's chart topping stars: Elvis Presley, Cliff Richard, Billy Furry, Frank Sinatra, Lonnie Donegan, and Shirley Bassey.

[bubsbecham]

Great to see a young band play the Shads really well and live too. Keep up the good work. I wish I could look as relaxed as you when I play!

[richiecockburn]

sound is  really distorted jesus

[northernisle]

I'm forever in your debt, Sleepwalk is my favourite song in the world and to see the vid Awesome, tanx.

[thesavage2000]

Another great live performance
