    I always enjoy watching Tzan play. He'll be looking at the fretboard, then looks up with an expression as if "Are you seeing this S%@*?" Great to see Stefan too, I had no idea he plays bass (and killing it!)

    Nikki Kosmider-Heuskes is without a doubt an extremely talented performer with a voice capable of making others take notice immediately.. This rendition is spot on from start to finish. Each member performing on this cut contributed to making Love Is A Battlefield my choice on all of UA-cam for this week's "Pick Hit Of The Week". Let us all take note of the beautiful blend of levels and effects which make the final product glisten!! Kudos to Darren who undoubtedly each week makes it all come together! Bravo SingIt Live!!!

    I am old, therefor I remember when this was playing on FM radio. (remember that "format"?).
    Amazing work, gang. About halfway through the song it struck me how rare it is for a artist and a team, to be able to grab hold of a song made world famous by someone else, work on it, and then perform the song with as much confidence, skill, and professionalism as Nikki does every time I see her behind the mike, whether here or on HSCC. She is a powerful force of nature. When teamed up with a group of people who are astonishingly good in their own right...well..you have Sing It Live. I hope someday you guys can actually make a vinyl record, or at least CD.
    I know," get with the times old man."

    Whenever I see Stefan in the thumbnail, I can’t open the video fast enough. But, on bass!? No disrespect to Tzan, who does a fine job here - but, I would have given up vodka tonics to have heard one of Stefan’s gut wrenching, emotional solos on this frenzied song. Crafty is a gem and one of a kind. You can't buy the kind of convulsive energy he always seems to bring to the songs he's in. And, this was one of the best, original intros I’ve seen/heard yet that you guys have done! Nikki’s idea?? Wow!
