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??
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 !!!
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!!
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!!!!
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!
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.
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 :)
@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
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.
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...
@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...
@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/
Best house band on any music show EVER!!
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.
This dude totally should have won. Plus Australia rules!
i don't know how this song wasn't more popular
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??
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.
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.
This still bangs in 2k19
Hell Yeah! Best song of the series for sure!
i cant believe its been 10 years
lol, really?!
geez, i feel old now, thx a lot! ;0)

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!!!!
This song rocks
How did this guy not win?? Never heard of Lukas Rossi since!
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!
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.

This song is better than anything Supernova could ever do! They don't deserve him.
💜 they need a reunion show
Yes they shoule have an all stars from the two series
Heck yeah 💜
Love the kick drum here. Sounds cool as fuck!
@ruova18 Im sure that if Toby won, they would still be together.
Toby was the one who should of taken out the crown. The best frontsman & singer
great guitarist!!!!!!
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?
I do think Toby should win at this point.
Toby was robbed of winning this show
He sure was Rafael was awesome on guitar
bring back Rockstar....someone out there must be looking for a singer.
heres your winner people!!!
How Toby never won this competition is a mystery
What happened to Toby Rand and Juke Kartel? April 17 2024
They're going back to Australia soon! And they already have gigs lined up there. You should check their facebook page :)
Ok, that was AWESOME!
@phatgonk - that's Rafael Moreira playing guitar :-) He's awesome. He has his own band, Magnetico. Check him out sometime!
toby was the best and shuda won PURE aussie talent...
The Simi so grees!! Sooooooooooooooo want ROCKSTAR to be back on the telly
The start riff sounds eerily similar to "Someone Like You" by Bang Tango.
I totally agree. He should have won, but I think they were almost afraid that he would grab all the attention.
Toby Rand should have won the show.
Storm Large, the clip is here, just looked at it, Toby almost steals the show from her with his performance.
awesome : )
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!
@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
The support band friggin rocks whos the guitarist hes god !! :)
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.
@hendrixian1 Couldn't agree more, I mean Gilby Clarke as a guitarist?? I would take the session muso's any day over supernova!!
@kmvoss wtf are you talking about? thats just fromt he vid not being synced to the sound perfectly.
agree
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...
ahhh! hes soooo fucking hawt! my sister partied with him a couple of weekends ago and she said he was really nice :D
i wonder if Juke Kartel were stoked that House Band covered their song!
Toby Rand
@melbgal I can hear that
@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...
who doeess he sing wake me up with and wheres the clip???
the album version with his band ua-cam.com/video/ISOdXtBuYFU/v-deo.html
the original song is of????
@sidewalkcrap yeah, ok dude. EVS.
@Fifixo .... NO this is not the lyrics!!!
See "Bring Me to Life"
Australia breeds the best!
@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
sorry but, what IS evs?
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.
Toby should have won
@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.
Too bad his voice isn't live. 1:09.
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
@ians2cool2 Hahaha. Not at all dude! LMAO.
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/
somebody agree with me if i say that all the support band play much better than gilby , tommy and jason?
Austrilian expression for whatever.
The house band was better than Supernova lol
hes lucky he didnt win
the original song is of????
