Don't know why KZread always recommends randomly old videos but I'm glad it did, what a great song, thanks Mr Sklar to share this. Hope to meet you some day, take care, hope you'll be doing good soon.

A gente percebe que ouviu o Leland Sklar esse tempo todo, com Bee Gees, Phil Collins, Toto entre outros ícones da música.

Thanks Mr. Sklar. Everyone in the world were able to know there's a bass guitar in a band due to you. I first saw you when I'm 14 and today I'm 44... God bless you.

Big hello from London Uk. One of my favourites of Phil Collins.

And here's me worrying about the camera and all on my own covers, while our legend just just fires up his camera, amp and a live session, and just goes off. Love it!! 😂

Just another day in paradise - USA's Covid-19 deaths now exceed all US lives lost in World War I, Vietnam, Pearl Harbour and 9/11 combined: Covid-19 = 189,235 (as of 3 September) WWI + Vietnam + Pearl Harbour + 9/11 = 180,100. Thank you for your wit, generosity and wisdom Leland.

Hi sir, can you believe that this takes me back to my childhood? You playing the base in a little place called Berlin with Phil Collins where he asked the recently united German public "fur eine Spende". Yes it was the "Serious Hits..." tour you did with him way back in the summer of 1990. For me this was a special year. I might have been born in 1986 but I already went to my great grandmother on the other side of the wall, and had the rare opportunity to even be in East Germany as a kid from the West. I still remember how overjoyed everyone in the family and around us were when in on the 9th of November 1989, and the Serious Hits World Tour from Berlin, like the fall of the Berlin wall, was broadcast live to us in the Netherlands on Independence Day... 14th of July 1990. I still remember sitting down with my parents in front of the television with the audio blasting through our home whilst the VCR was quickly enabled to record it all. It was for me the first true glimps that has always stood by me as a kid of the German people being happily together again. Albeit I didn't know that my great grandmother who had sadly witnessed two world wars and had gone through the whole communist ordeal of the German Democratic Republic would not live long to enjoy her freedom. Despite that the music of that day and the energy of that show and the crowd is still with me today, and I had always wondered who the bassist was. It wasn't until much later that I finally got a DVD copy of that concert that I finally saw your name. Now I taught myself some guitar and bass, albeit being rubbish. Sadly, after you've then played in a time of freedom I now find you again through KZread (which I never would have guessed) in a time where we are all locked up again as people of the world. How strange life can be, but I still wish to thank you and everyone of the band of that concert in Berlin on Independence Day for all the feelings your music has given me. Impressing a back then 4 year old kid enough to last a lifetime. Thank you!

I am your fan I am from Brazil we love the rhythm of Phill Colins, and the sound of your bass and contagious, hugs from your number one fan in Brazil.

I've always found this song so moving.. and somehow hearing it with emphasis on your sublime bassline makes it even more moving. Thank you Mr. Sklar. : )

As a bassist who's been enormously influenced by you, I'd just like to say how wonderful it is to see you playing so up close and 'raw'. I first discovered you when I started playing around 22 years ago and you've always very much been a benchmark of what great playing should be for me. Thank you so much for uploading these, and thank you for showing me how it should be done and helping me become a better player. Wishing you all the very best in these strange times!

I am really enjoying this series, as I have enjoyed the music for many years. It is great to put a face to someone who makes the music. I can't carry a tune in a bucket, but thanks to musicians like Lee, I can hear it. Keep it up.

Wohhhhhh! I've been looking forsomething like this! Thank you dear Mr Sklar! This is my mother's favorite song! Thank you always!

Que som e esse!!! Impressionado com tanta qualidade de som. Parabéns !!! Brazil forever!!!

Wow, this takes me back! I had just started high school and the music room had a keyboard corner with Roland MT-32 sound modules and PR-100 sequencers. I learned to use the equipment by working out the parts for this song and playing them onto the PR-100. I still have the QuickDisk stashed away but no idea if it's still readable - I'm going to try and find something that might read it. Thanks Lee for all you're doing. Let's spare a thought for those without homes, shelter or care during COVID-19...

Wow, so much creativity in that simple song. Nice. Thanks and wishing the best!

My respect for you and for your outstanding work as a musician during these years!!! Greetings from Costa Rica!!!!!

Em primeiro lugar, que timbre lindíssimo desse baixo... segundo, que execução segura!!!! Parabéns, excelente instrumento na mão de um excelente músico!

Such a laying back and groovy playing.

I love this song, the music, the atmosphere, the words, brings tears to my eyes, hoping to play it soon

Wow. Amazing. The way the base line wraps around the vocals with melody and rythym is simply fantastic...

Hey, I saw ya'll at the Houston Astro Dome ...'92? I was the one with the extreme 'hottie!' close to the front! Yes, Sandy loved your show too and showed me great appreciation! Man, that was a great night!

That open A during the chorus really makes it sound brooding. You're kind of expecting it to go up but it drops. Perfect fit.

All in this channel is legendary. every word. every note. Thanks for everything.

Greetings from Hungary! This is an amazing bass track. Very inspiring. Thank you so much for this video!

MUSIC needs players like you! Stay healthy and thank you.

Man, the tone! Sounds like a stone handed giant gorilla/Godzilla playing on high tension electric wires. Killer solid tone.

How I just found this channel now I don't know. To listen to this legend like this is sublime, almost otherworldly. Thank you sir.

I can't quit looking at the bass! It's so cool! He has the sweetest touch - what a great classic bassist! Thanks, Lee for all the many great years of bottoms!

Muito louco ,um som de alta qualidade !!!🙏🏻👏🏻✌🏻

Oh boy, that ending......just perfect.

Wow what an honour it must of been to tour with Phil you are a great bass player much love from the UK x

Wow. I love this man. Touch, tone, groove. Close up of one of the top session/touring musicians of all time. 40 plus years in the game. Thanks Leland. If nobody else tells you then I will. I appreciate you bruh.
