My Thoughts EXACTLY! The crunch of the riff adds a sence of urgency and gives a nice ying-yang contrast. The stripping out of the backing vocals helps to.
@@calebproductions5970 have you seen the clip from Reading '92 where they jokingly start playing More than a Feeling and then start Smells Like Teen Spirit?
I like the little reverse reverb tail you put on Marvins voice right before the chorus comes in to ala the effect on the Original. Nice. Damn, Marvin Gaye could sing over a thunderstorm and it would be a hit.
I grew up on Marvin Gaye. I am a great fan, and I absolutely LOVED Ratt in the 80s and 90s. This Sir, is BRILLIANT, and it just goes to show you, good music is good music. Genré matters not.
i grew up in the middle of labrador canada in the 80s but ALL of our american tv came from Detroit so i was well immersed in motown (plus my folks were fans). Loved his music, and this just elevates it!!!
Warren DeMartini is the reason I started playing guitar... and that was BEFORE hearing him play with Marvin Gaye! McClintock is a gatekeeper to the musical multiverse; thank you so much for your work.
I have a PhD in Mashups from Harvard College Yale. I'm happy to report that after analyzing all the data, my colleagues and I can conclude that this is the most pristine mashup in the world.
"How pure"?? What does that even mean for fuck sake? His voice works because it was made to fit in time and altered to be in key. It has nothing to do with a "pure voice" you fucking imbecile! It can be done with any voice retard! "pure"? WTF!?
@@counterfit5 I just watched it, This one blows that out of the water because Marvin Gaye's voice is constant and matching the instruments the whole time, cant be beat
@@Eng_Simoes I agree but you're thinking small man. The world.... and music :) I just came here AGAIN to be cheered up by Bill and his ear. Still one of my favorites he's ever done!
Actually, there is a band called "Rock Candy" that mashes up rocks songs and performs them in the studio. They have an album out. Do a UA-cam search for them. It's wild and funny.
Actually it's called "rock Sugar". But yes they actually do actually play the songs mashed up. Like Metallica and journey. Kiss and Paula Abdul. They are badass.
Agreed. This mashup blended a new dimension into Marvin's singing and a truly great vocal to elevate Ratt's excellent music. It was very deftly mixed, and it just seems so RIGHT!
RATT really started rolling in 84 when I was 16 in highschool still one of my favorite bands of all time, Warren is a guitar god absolute LEGEND, love all types of music this with legendary Marvin is to good.
Un-freakin'-believable! It is amazing how perfectly this works! Marvin's I Heard It Through The Grapevine is my favorite song of all time, and I'm usually very "protective" of such endeavors, but this deserves some sort of award! Kudos to you, sir!
Mixing an entire song of b tempo notes, from two completely different groups of artists must have been a true nightmare. Bill McClintock not only got that done but the result is seamless and beautiful to hear. Outstanding.
jarjon76 finally someone mentions Robbin. He was such an underrated guitarist and writer, truly the mind behind Ratt. Awesome band. Out of the cellar and invasion of your privacy we’re both fantastic albums.
Compared to other mashups I've heard anywhere else on the internet this is actually coherent like if I had no pre-existing idea of who these two musicians or bands were and I heard this I totally would believe it was the same song
Holy crap. The interplay between the notes of the Ratt track and Marvins melody is amazing. It’s perfect. This is probably my favorite of all your clips. And LOVE them all!!!
R&B and rock were tight together when they first started, ultimately they both veered off into two very different streams. Mr. McClintock has steered them back into each other again.
Okay, I stumbled across Bill's videos and now it's been over an hour and a half and I haven't gotten anything done, except enjoy the past hour and a half! What a great mind to think to mash these up! Keep 'em coming!
Man, this is out of this world! How did you pull this off? You are bringing together the best from both songs and the outcome is absolutely brilliant! I can’t stop hearing it! RATT and Marvin Gaye would love to perform together after hearing this. For sure! Thank you Mr Genius!
Ratt was never the same after Marvin left to pursue a solo career
When behind the music continues!
He went to #1....with a bullet!
too soon?
Marty Schriver. Oh Damn....You're killing me
That was the last great ratt tour. Steven came in and well just anothed hair band.
😂
Dude you created the best music genre ever.
SOUL METAL
.....NICEEEEEEE
You should check out Kings X if you like this
Heavy Met-oul
YESSSSSSS!
I forgot about Kings X! I listened to them in the 90s. Thank you for the reminder.
when marvin hit those high notes and it matched the chord shifts I saw heaven
Dude...you had yourself an "eargasm".
"It took me by surpriiiiise I must say..." Brilliant!
like when the auto tune tuned it automatically you liked it?
@@nannite what auto tune? Those are the originals notes of "heard it through the grapevine." Auto tune wasn't needed
@@user-og7zi2fy2e ...nope. In the very first lines the word "plans" has been shifted by a minor third to fit the changes. That's just one example, but the vocal has really been shoehorned in.
This is literally so good I can't listen to either song "normally" anymore
Yep, whenever I hear the RATT song start, on cue I start singing OOHH OOH I BETCHA YOU WONDER HOW I KNEW.
glad I'm not the only one
yes
Let's not get crazy now. It's good..but it's not that good.
I don't know of any other mash-up that improves both versions
This is the Gold Standard for all mash ups that would come afterwards
Somehow, Marvin's impeccable vocals are actually HIGHLIGHTED with the Round and Round backdrop. So good.
My Thoughts EXACTLY! The crunch of the riff adds a sence of urgency and gives a nice ying-yang contrast. The stripping out of the backing vocals helps to.
This is insane random UA-cam, this flows so well. WARREN TORCH DEMARTINI ABSOLUTE LEGEND.......... This is genius with Marvin.
This is seriously legit. Shows how Rock music is so closely knitted to Rhythm and Blues. Marvin Gaye was such an awesome talent.
Rock is literally a child of R&B
Anyone else still jammin' to this in 2024? Pure synergy, two things greater than the sum of its parts!
Yup!!!!!
Just found it, better late cause it rocks my funky bones. Genius.
Keep coming back for more.
This is FANTASTIC.
Uh yes. Right now in fact.
Probably one of the best mashups I have ever heard.
yeah just found it and it ranks up there with Crocodile Chop
This one and more than a feeling w nirvana
Easily
@@calebproductions5970 have you seen the clip from Reading '92 where they jokingly start playing More than a Feeling and then start Smells Like Teen Spirit?
The structure of the two songs matches up surprisingly well! Whoever thought to mash these ones up had a good ear, for sure.
Quite possibly the greatest sounding mashup of all time.
You should see his 5 finger death punch and Marvin Gaye mashup
My God, that chorus with Marvin completely slaps!
Bill McClintock is probably the most talented Sound Engineer on UA-cam.
@@JohnM-sw4sc he's not this good
Agreed!
Ideee deeeee doooo deeeee (indeed he is)
Maybe!? 🤨 I think there's no question he's a god of sorts😅
Well, he works as an elementary music teacher...
I need more Soul Metal in my life 😎🤘
Check out Metallica with Stevie Wonder - "Sad But Superstitious"
@@cbaile And Bill's version of Stevie with Guns 'n' Roses, "Living For The Paradise City"
Zeal and Ardor.
I knew some hipster would bring up Zeal And Ardor.
You know, one day Bill cracked his knuckles and said Imma bout to make a whole ass genre. And he did.
keep coming back to this master piece in 2024
This is unironically one of the greatest things ever.
Bill McClintock must run for POTUS. Only he can bring the world together!
As long as he’s not a registered Democrat 😂
This is definitely one of those “listen to over and over” mashups. It’s just that good
Insane. The chorus.... Marvin singing over those Ratt chords give me chills.
This is about as slick as it gets.TWO LEGENDS MARVIN AND WARREN TORCH DEMARTINI. This mix is great.
@@tommcdonough6086Warren is pretty stellar and a very nice guy.
Everytime I hear a mashup, I comment it’s almost as good as this one. This is the gold standard.
"It took me surprise I must say" and "You could have told me yourself" lines up with the instrumental so perfectly! You'd swear this was meant to be!
This is nuts! My brain and ears are looking at each other like, "You sober?"
One of the funniest comments I've ever heard on UA-cam MY Friend...
👍👍👍😂😂😂
Maaaaan if your brain and ears are looking at each other you are not sober lol
Me too
Same here
🤣🤣🤣
I remember this concert...Marvin stole the show! SOUL METAL!!!
I wish Marvin Gaye were around to see this. I think it would have blown his mind to see it.
He might say "what's going on?"
@@toweypat Ratt, and Marvin Gaye, Ain't that peculiar?
He would've gotten a big kick out of it, for sure ^_^
Someone said they showed it to Ratt on social media and they loved it
I bet Marvin Gaye and Robbin Crosby would've enjoyed this.
This has no business being this good.
Hahahahahahaha
I love this comment!
I didn't know I needed this.
Yep
Yepper
Perfect summation.
I concur.
Affirmative
Yeah
Hell yeah
Me Too .. who knew ???
Indeed. Took me by surprise, to be honest.
Hehe
Now you do and so do we
Best mash up in history. Every single note, beat, chord, phrase, and bit of footage match up PERFECTLY.
Did you the Slayer / Bangles mashup?
2:04 Marvin's definitely feelin' that solo!!
This is the fucking best mashup of songs, ever, PERIOD.
Word!
It was until Slayer's 'Angel of Death' and Bangles 'Walk Like An Egyptian'
Dude is talented!
I also like Van Helen and The Jackson 5
Metallica Roxette for comedy
Scary how these fit together.
This was the mashup that made me a subscriber and it hasn't been surpassed yet cause it's such a natural fit and never once feels forced with extras
I like the little reverse reverb tail you put on Marvins voice right before the chorus comes in to ala the effect on the Original. Nice. Damn, Marvin Gaye could sing over a thunderstorm and it would be a hit.
jmgmarcus Definitely one of the most tragic losses in music history.
That reverse reverb actually came off the vocal track of "Round and Round"
"Sing over a thunderstorm and it would be a hit" lol!
@@JosephWheeler14 You do know that you can appreciate someone's music without approving of the rest that they do, right?
The song titles alone are hysterical. The music itself is sublime.
Dayummm. The way they come together at 0:30 gave me the chills. This ROCKS!
This should not work. My brain is melting at how well these two songs meld together. Pure awesomeness

Who’d have thought that Marvin Gaye was so metal? Fucking great!!!
This fits so well! I will never hear either song the same again.
That chorus is straight fire!
Almost 3 years later, still the greatest mashup.
5years now
This is what perfect sounds like! 😎🎸
Warren DeMartini is the reason I started playing guitar... and that was BEFORE hearing him play with Marvin Gaye! McClintock is a gatekeeper to the musical multiverse; thank you so much for your work.

Dude you are absolutely the best at mashups. These are actually extremely listenable. Sometimes even more so than the originals
ao el thanks!
ao el that the straight up trooth!!
ao el ok
i’ll subscribe and see what else ya got
Was thinking the same thing. This is incredible. Nice job!
Sell these on CD pronto
This is so METAL.
It's so smooth yet shreds.
I have a PhD in Mashups from Harvard College Yale. I'm happy to report that after analyzing all the data, my colleagues and I can conclude that this is the most pristine mashup in the world.
Was "Call me a Hole" factored into your analysis, out of curiosity? ua-cam.com/video/5Lm1FL7gWl4/v-deo.html
It was. Though it showed great promise, unfortunately, we found that the genres weren't disparate enough.
Fair. Tho I sort of feel like either Carly Rae or Trent should feel insulted by that statement. (Perhaps both!)
Nine Inch Nails and Carly Rae weren't disparate enough? Tough crowd, but I have to honor your initial
findings.
kinskifilms slow down there
This is bloody brilliant!!! Such a great work man!
Bringing you back for another listen brother
think MG would’ve made a good front man for Ratt, he had the moves
Dude, I saw your pic and thought you were him congratulating himself lol
It is Brilliant I agree
This is also a testament to how pure Marvin's voice was. To be able to drop it into Ratt and work, holy cow. Great job.
Couldn't have said it better. Has a completely new vibe to it.
incredible
He's an honorary Aryan

Man, your ear is lit! The scale changes, tempo, keys, genres all mixed just right. I don't know what to call your talent, but it's excellent sounding.
This might be the best mashup ever made.
Easily
This and the one with beat it and the trooper...cant decide which i like more tho
The Who/Metallica/Megadeth one is tough to top
ONe hundred percent
@@counterfit5 I just watched it, This one blows that out of the water because Marvin Gaye's voice is constant and matching the instruments the whole time, cant be beat
Amazing. It has no right to sound so awesome. Unbelievable
Subtle point: the reverse vocal right before "Instead..." is the effect Ratt had on their line "round and round" Nice little touch; brilliant mash-up.
Wow ....
@@ColtraneTaylor
Nice name, btw, if you're into jazz.
John Coltrane and Cecil Taylor.
@@YaoEspirito Thanks. It was John Coltrane and John Taylor from Duran Duran. : )

Faaaantastic. On a side note, damn, Marvin, you are sorely missed.
VS Atkinson : RIP Robin Crosby too
Neither song will ever be the same to me again.. They've truly become one, mind blown!!
I can't believe hair metal and soul music works. Marvin's voice fits well to a Ratt song. Great job man
Soul Metal is my new favorite genre.
Is it just me or, should this always have been this way?
This channel is a hint of what America could (or should) be.
@@Eng_Simoes I agree but you're thinking small man. The world.... and music :) I just came here AGAIN to be cheered up by Bill and his ear. Still one of my favorites he's ever done!
Meant to be
Always. God damn this is good, and I only come to appreciate it more over time.
It’s the Mandela effect. Somewhere in another dimension this IS how it is
Could you imagine how insane it would be if there was a cover band that actually performed stuff like this live?
It'd be great but too hard for mortals to achive

I know it's the best I've heard. It's dope!
I actually wanna cover this mashup with my acoustic band. hahahaha it would be sooo awesome.
This is the greatest song that does not officially exist.
I’ve just come across Bill’s mashups and I’ve spent the last hour or so listening. This is brilliant stuff. This one is insane and so good.
I can relate. I've been listening for about 3hours and can't seem to stop. It's so addictive.
These mash ups actually throw a light onto the real musical roots of what we know as rock music.
I love Ratt and Marvin Gaye and this is off the hook, this was amazing
Ratt n roll baby! JESUS SAVES!
RATT really started rolling in 84 when I was 16 in highschool still one of my favorite bands of all time, Warren is a guitar god absolute LEGEND, love all types of music this with legendary Marvin is to good.
man these soul & metal mixes are so good, never knew i needed them in my life
I seen RATT at the Wiskey a go-go back around 92' , and actually went to Marvin's home around 1998. What great experiences ❤!!!!
This is my favourite of all the mashups. Not just the novelty, this is just great music that surpasses both originals.
After multiple listens, now I cannot listen to either songs without hearing this in my head 😂❤❤
Un-freakin'-believable! It is amazing how perfectly this works!
Marvin's I Heard It Through The Grapevine is my favorite song of all time, and I'm usually very "protective" of such endeavors, but this deserves some sort of award!
Kudos to you, sir!
Dimitris Sakaridis I love this version!
Gladys Knights version was recorded first I think and it's great too. Check it out.
I need to get that lp some how!
Round And Round is the greatest song ever put down in a recording booth, but I really like this mashup of Marvin Gaye with the masters.
