2020, I still remember this song (the only I really remember about that whole show tbh). How did this song never caught on is beyond me. At that precise moment in time, Toby Rand was the very definition of a rock star!!! He should have won this.
This song would be a PERFECT intro song for a WWE Superstar into the ring. So high energy and amazing. I too, remember this song from 15 years ago and it leaves an impression. Still sounds great and modern in 2022!
Did you know that Toby Rand's band 'Juke Kartel' actually was the local support Band for Nickelback on their Melbourne (Australia) to tour BEFORE Toby appeared on Rockstar:Supernova??
those guys are unbelievable, you are so right, they can nail every musical style easily... this guitarist is sick, omg.... this band are the current nbc the voice band, no wonder why everyone hire them...
I watched this show... was bummed he didn't make it to top 2, but I reckon he just went in for the experience & to showcase his great voice, & the awesome stuff of Juke Kartel! Can't believe we haven't heard anything more!!!!
I Miss This SHOW So Very Bad I Wish it would Come Back !!! The House Band was Awsome Especialy the Guitarist and Toby Rocked his Original Song very Cool. The Voice and American Idol are Good but ROCKSTAR was AWSOME !!!
Toby Rand and his band Juke Kartel are here in L.A.!! They'll be doing one more gig at the Viper Room in Hollywood on Dec 12, '09 before they head back to Australia for the holidays. If anyone is in the area, come on over!! You can also find them on facebook :)
as a member of the Rossi Possie and The Rand Wagon (and a loving sister of one of the Rockband Hoochies [ninja]) I love Toby and i'm happy he didn't win. Juke is doing amazing and Supernova went down the drain.
I loved this song as soon as he started singing it! The way he performes and just his being is so centered and so cool! I loved him on the show and still follow him with his band JUKE KARTEL!!! Check him out! HE DOESENT DISSAPOINT!!
Yeah I love this song. :P I loved the show, got to see Rockstar Supernova (which was awesome, Dilana and Magni showed up..YES) after Jason was hurt. I was CRUSHED. Loved him through his Metallica years and wanted to see him live. Oh well, maybe someday!
Ah... I'll never forget this. Brilliant. Toby was too good for Supernova anyways. Juke Kartel are going to be HUGE with the launch of their new album in the US 'Levlation'... Toby's voice has only gotten *better* with age.
@phatgonk he pretty amazing ay. Used to be pinks guitarist. My favourite thing about watching this show was watching those session guys work... they're better muso's than any of the supernova guys xD
@Flashyrad The recognized that Toby had real talent and Lee, Newsted and Clarke were not really into a long term thing, they would have felt bad screwing Toby over but knew Lukas would kill the band on his own...
hey tobi man u rock...if u hv been wat u did in some of ur last performance than u kud hv certainely kicked lucas ass man...but throw it away was amazing man..hv 2 accept dat..wat ru doin these days...
@Shadow67781 It's not Great Escape's 'Boys like girls' is it? The chorus is: Throw it away Forget yesterday We'll make the great escape We won't hear a word they say They don't know us anyway Watch it burn Let it die Cause we are finally free tonight
@Flashyrad The same as any other show, money...you can not seriously think that a super band would: 1) stay together with the ego's of the established rockers and 2) be formed from a contest. This was nothing more than a money grab and publicity platform.
he shoulda talked to the backing band this night and ditched rockstar and made a real band instead. his band is good dont get me wrong, but those guys on the show are like 10x better ahah
Supernova who?? they didnt want toby cause he wouldve upstaged tommy and jason and we all know they cant handle that....supernova done nothin and went nowhere good choice guys....ROCK ON TOBY \m/ ( +_+ ) \m/
2020, I still remember this song (the only I really remember about that whole show tbh). How did this song never caught on is beyond me. At that precise moment in time, Toby Rand was the very definition of a rock star!!! He should have won this.
My husband and I just watched the whole season, he had never watched it, still after 14 years think toby would of been amazing in that band!
Toby should have won!
Yeah he should have but supernova was a big flop and I'm glad he didn't sink with that ship!
This song would be a PERFECT intro song for a WWE Superstar into the ring. So high energy and amazing. I too, remember this song from 15 years ago and it leaves an impression. Still sounds great and modern in 2022!
I still listen to this song from time to time. Really freaking good
I went back here after so many years. He was my pick. He should have won. He could have become big if he won here.
Best house band on any music show EVER!!
This dude totally should have won. Plus Australia rules!
Did you know that Toby Rand's band 'Juke Kartel' actually was the local support Band for Nickelback on their Melbourne (Australia) to tour BEFORE Toby appeared on Rockstar:Supernova??
Dec 10th 2022, 2:11 am and im still rockin out to this ... 🤟🤟
This is such a good song. I don't remember a single supernova song but this one, Ryan Star''s original and Storm's I remember.
i don't know how this song wasn't more popular
i cant believe its been 10 years
lol, really?!
geez, i feel old now, thx a lot! ;0)
Now 13
It's 2024 still watching
This still bangs in 2k19
Hell Yeah! Best song of the series for sure!
So refreshing to see an original yet so catchy tune!!!
Toby all the way!!!!
i remember watching this many years ago... it was the 2nd time ive ever felt like i wanna be a rockstar... 1st was back to the future
The sad part about this was that the session band was actually better than supernova!!
But to be fair the house band was really fricken good!
They were absolute guns! No disputing that..
I wish these artists, even Lucas (didn't like him at all) were played more mainstream than what they play on radio nowadays..
I have never seen a truer statement!
I know the band leader and the drummer were on the early seasons of The Voice. I’m not sure if they are still on there or have moved on.
those guys are unbelievable, you are so right, they can nail every musical style easily...
this guitarist is sick, omg....
this band are the current nbc the voice band, no wonder why everyone hire them...
Toby still puts the fun in Rock n Roll ♥♥
I'm addticted to this song!! I love it!!
Same here rockin out to it still in 2019 !
I watched this show... was bummed he didn't make it to top 2, but I reckon he just went in for the experience & to showcase his great voice, & the awesome stuff of Juke Kartel! Can't believe we haven't heard anything more!!!!
I Miss This SHOW So Very Bad I Wish it would Come Back !!! The House Band was Awsome Especialy the Guitarist and Toby Rocked his Original Song very Cool. The Voice and American Idol are Good but ROCKSTAR was AWSOME !!!

💜 they need a reunion show
Yes they shoule have an all stars from the two series
Heck yeah 💜
This song rocks
How did this guy not win?? Never heard of Lukas Rossi since!
great guitarist!!!!!!
This song is better than anything Supernova could ever do! They don't deserve him.
bring back Rockstar....someone out there must be looking for a singer.
Love the kick drum here. Sounds cool as fuck!
Toby was the one who should of taken out the crown. The best frontsman & singer
They're going back to Australia soon! And they already have gigs lined up there. You should check their facebook page :)
Where are you guys I know it’s been a while but I can’t even find your music on a digital jukebox can you guys reach out or reply?
Ok, that was AWESOME!
@ruova18 Im sure that if Toby won, they would still be together.
I do think Toby should win at this point.
@phatgonk - that's Rafael Moreira playing guitar :-) He's awesome. He has his own band, Magnetico. Check him out sometime!
Storm Large, the clip is here, just looked at it, Toby almost steals the show from her with his performance.
How Toby never won this competition is a mystery
toby was the best and shuda won PURE aussie talent...
I totally agree. He should have won, but I think they were almost afraid that he would grab all the attention.
What happened to Toby Rand and Juke Kartel? April 17 2024
The start riff sounds eerily similar to "Someone Like You" by Bang Tango.
Toby Rand should have won the show.
Toby was robbed of winning this show
He sure was Rafael was awesome on guitar
The Simi so grees!! Sooooooooooooooo want ROCKSTAR to be back on the telly
awesome : )
heres your winner people!!!
He outstaged Supernova, and picked the goofy American guy with his Headspin. lol. What a joke.
Rebelinparadise 71 Canadian.
Lukas is Canadian, not American you silly goose!
he is rockstar supernova!
he should've won!
Ah... I'll never forget this. Brilliant. Toby was too good for Supernova anyways.
Juke Kartel are going to be HUGE with the launch of their new album in the US 'Levlation'... Toby's voice has only gotten *better* with age.
@phatgonk he pretty amazing ay. Used to be pinks guitarist. My favourite thing about watching this show was watching those session guys work... they're better muso's than any of the supernova guys xD
@kmvoss wtf are you talking about? thats just fromt he vid not being synced to the sound perfectly.
agree
The support band friggin rocks whos the guitarist hes god !! :)
ahhh! hes soooo fucking hawt! my sister partied with him a couple of weekends ago and she said he was really nice :D
@hendrixian1 Couldn't agree more, I mean Gilby Clarke as a guitarist?? I would take the session muso's any day over supernova!!
Toby Rand
i wonder if Juke Kartel were stoked that House Band covered their song!
@Flashyrad The recognized that Toby had real talent and Lee, Newsted and Clarke were not really into a long term thing, they would have felt bad screwing Toby over but knew Lukas would kill the band on his own...
hey tobi man u rock...if u hv been wat u did in some of ur last performance than u kud hv certainely kicked lucas ass man...but throw it away was amazing man..hv 2 accept dat..wat ru doin these days...
@melbgal I can hear that

@Shadow67781 It's not Great Escape's 'Boys like girls' is it?
The chorus is:
Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
Cause we are finally free tonight
@Fifixo .... NO this is not the lyrics!!!
@sidewalkcrap yeah, ok dude. EVS.
the original song is of????
Australia breeds the best!
sorry but, what IS evs?
See "Bring Me to Life"
@Flashyrad The same as any other show, money...you can not seriously think that a super band would: 1) stay together with the ego's of the established rockers and 2) be formed from a contest. This was nothing more than a money grab and publicity platform.
definately but they chose someone that didnt outshine everyone else in the band so they went with someone that had to improve every week lol.
@ians2cool2 Hahaha. Not at all dude! LMAO.
he shoulda talked to the backing band this night and ditched rockstar and made a real band instead. his band is good dont get me wrong, but those guys on the show are like 10x better ahah
Too bad his voice isn't live. 1:09.
Toby should have won
Austrilian expression for whatever.
somebody agree with me if i say that all the support band play much better than gilby , tommy and jason?
Supernova who?? they didnt want toby cause he wouldve upstaged tommy and jason and we all know they cant handle that....supernova done nothin and went nowhere good choice guys....ROCK ON TOBY \m/ ( +_+ ) \m/
hes lucky he didnt win
The house band was better than Supernova lol
the original song is of????
