Steve and these other musical impressionists like Anthony Vincent, Moonic Productions and Mac Glocky don’t use AI in their work, it’s all their natural talent. They all started making these types of videos before AI covers were even a thing and proved that they were great then, so why would they even use AI if they’re already amazing at what they do?
Dude, you're stepping up the game for people who do this kind of stuff. You're so in tune with how the artists sound, vocally and with their guitar playing styles. All the other pieces just fall into place around it perfectly. I feel like I'm pretty much listening to the band doing a cover in their own style, but it's like some weird alternate universe where they actually do covers they would never do. Like, I don't even think the bands themselves would have even figured out how to sound like themselves through these covers that you do. So many bands try to play covers straight or more in line with the original arrangement, as like a way to pay respect to the original artist. You've figured out the formulas within each band's sound and you're so cleverly twisting that to fit in the most unexpected things. One of the few joys I have in life right now is how blown away and how much laughter I get from hearing each new old song you conjure up.

Thank you for mentioning "Torn" is a cover song. It's so frustrating to me that people have never heard the original song by Ednaswap because it is amazing and they don't get nearly enough credit for it. In my opinion, the original one is far superior to Natalie's version. That aside, this KoRn inspired cover is amazing and the perfect blend of my favorite band and one of my favorite alternative rock songs of the 90s. Amazing Jonathan Davis impression you've got there, and I like the riff which seems "Right Now" inspired, my favorite KoRn song.

This number works so well it's uncanny.
This must have been on an extended album version... pretty sweet bonus song!
Holy s**t, how do those lyrics more or less PERFECTLY fit with Korn's style!?!?!
