He can sing. He can sing harmonies. He can play the drums. He can play the guitar. He can play the bass. He can play keys/piano. He can edit the sound. He can mix it. He can produce a video and post it in YT. I’m probably missing a few others. What can’t he do?
I couldn't stay silent for long....Every Sunday at 2pm ET, Richie orchestrates a fun, positive, interactive live-streaming ~3 hour show that brings people together from all around the world. What I love about Richie Castellano is that he is a man of such strong character that he thanked US just before revealing this performance for helping him prepare his vocals!! He takes the time each week to personally thank his supporters. He's a class act all the way around!
BTW, tell Buck and Eric, I saw them in Springfield, Mo in the early 80's on their "Fire Of Unknown Origin" Tour. They played so loud I couldn't hear for a week and it was AWESOME! LOL.
Close your eyes & this Sounds Exactly Like the Original all the way down to the Timbre of His Voice This was SUPER IMPRESSIVE UA-cam Allows those who are Creative to Share their Creativity
There. Are. No. Words. To say them would be an insult to this guy! It does my musical heart and mind good to know that there are super-incredibly talented guys like Richie out there and have the ability to put something like this together for our enjoyment! OK...I will say one word.....GENIUS.
Richard Page has monster pipes. The fact that Richie is in the same ballpark on this song--and plays every damn instrument on this track-- is stupendous!
Literal chills listening to this! One of my favorite songs from the 80's. The vocals couldn't BE any more spot on! FanTAStic job!!! Ok, I've watched this about twenty times now. These vocals are SO accurate to the original, I have to keep telling myself, "This is not, I repeat, NOT a lip synch" If it took all those "three hours tours" to get Richie's voice to this point, it was WELL worth it!
Started my journey in the Wonderland of Richies music with my atf bands Bohemian rhapsody years back. Only later I discovered BandGeeks cuz someone there looked "just like Bohemian rhapsody dude" (but with better (facial) hair :p). Hands down best act in youtube for years now! Long live rock'n'roll! Long live Richie! (",)
I'm laying in bed, in the dark, in a country far from home. This song just went straight to my heart. I was fist pumping and trying not to yell in excitement, especially the 6m and 5 hits after acapella break. Nailed it again Richie...thank you man :))
Even with his mad skills and ability to crank it out, still a huge effort. Fantastic. And he's right, the Richard Page Live version at the Ryman (i think) is a chilling performance. This one is up there as well. Plays all the instruments, provides all vocals, presses all the buttons. Come on, man! How much talent is one person allowed to have?
Kýrie, eléison means "Lord, have mercy" in Greek, and is a part of many liturgical rites in Eastern and Western Christianity. Kýrie, eléison; Christé, eléison; Kýrie, eléison is a prayer that asks "Lord, have mercy; Christ, have mercy; Lord, have mercy." According to Page the entire song is, essentially, a prayer.
Now I know what you meant in the livestream about the "Christianing of the new studio"! Amazing, 😮🤤🤤 jaw-dropping performance Richie on all instruments and...THE vocals! You nailed that wonderful jem from the 80s!!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 Congratulations on the new studio, really awesome. You definitely are a one-man-band capable, but I hope to see you soon together with the rest of the Geeks! *For the record "Κύριε ελέησον" (or Kyrie eleison) is ancient Greek, part of a prayer and it means "Lord show your mercy" or freely translated "Be kind to me, help me (down the road that I must travel)!😉
Richie is absolutely the best carpenter, because he NAILED this one! Seriously it’s really awesome to sound just like the original that I remember. Excellent job my friend!!!
I like to give props to those guys who make the songs sound like the originals instead of trying to make it "their own" but you're on a whole different level!
0:39 that one second = subbed 😂😂😂😂😂 man, totaly great cover!!! mr mister was my teenage years and your editing is so what funny 😂😂😂😂😂 subbed subbed......greetz from switzerland!
Beyond peerless and incredibly fantastic, even if I'm simultaneously choked up over conflicting old emotions involving a girl I used to know and love named Kiri...
If I could give this a thousand thumbs up I would. One of the greatest covers I’ve heard. Flat out incredible! All of it was fantastic but the vocals were almost identical. Take a bow my friend because I’m giving you a standing ovation!!!!!
The thumbs downers must not like the song. No one with an ear that works can seriously say this performance was anything but great.
He can sing. He can sing harmonies. He can play the drums. He can play the guitar. He can play the bass. He can play keys/piano. He can edit the sound. He can mix it. He can produce a video and post it in YT. I’m probably missing a few others. What can’t he do?
Amazing….Mr Mister would be very proud
That is absolutely ridiculous. Amazing job not only musically, but with the editing too.
just at the beginning of this... want the polish of his voice, i can do it but not consistently
Every time I rewatch this (which is reasonably often) I laugh at your use of "ridiculous!"
If I close my eyes, I would think I'm listening to Mr. Mister.
Fantastic!!
Incredible! One of the most talented individuals I’ve ever seen.
For real
Words fail me Richie
Agreed!
Very talented musician... But you can't deny... He's literally BESIDE HIMSELF! Well done.
UN -- B -- LEE --- V -- A -- BLE !!!!!!!!
There's nothing like a power ballad done by a one man band!

Thanks again Melissa!
Wow. The Castellano quintuplets do it again. Amazing !
Once again, thank you for bringing back real music. Míster Mr. Would really appreciate your revival.
LORD HAVE MERCY!! God bless you brother.
Which god do you like? I like Ranta the Rancor! My parents like Jesus, but his story is kinda dumb.
Absolutely killed the vocals! Sounded fantastic. And the studio is gorgeous! So happy for you.
I was sold from the first note. Spectacular cover. It’s a shame I that can only Like this once.
Came back to listen again it's so good.
Multi-talented doesn’t cover it! Thank you for sharing your talents with us.
I'm speechless..kudos to Ritchie!
The good’ol days. Thanks for bringing them back!
My wife just said it best, "close your eyes and you cannot tell the difference!"
I SAID THE SAME IF YOU DONT SEE HIS FACE YOU THINK IS RICHARD PAGE SINGING
Nailed it!
Yes you can. A musician can. But damn he did a fine job here.
@@ELVENGADOR858nope, I can tell.
He did an awesome job of it though
MAN, you are amazing. A musical chameleon. You can sound like ANYONE. Well done!
BTW, tell Buck and Eric, I saw them in Springfield, Mo in the early 80's on their "Fire Of Unknown Origin" Tour. They played so loud I couldn't hear for a week and it was AWESOME! LOL.

What. the. hell. Wow. Unbelievable, man. I'm speechless.
There. Are. No. Words. To say them would be an insult to this guy! It does my musical heart and mind good to know that there are super-incredibly talented guys like Richie out there and have the ability to put something like this together for our enjoyment! OK...I will say one word.....GENIUS.
This was definitely a labor of love. Great job.
It's just unfair that somebody is this talented musically!
Richard Page has monster pipes. The fact that Richie is in the same ballpark on this song--and plays every damn instrument on this track-- is stupendous!
Blown away! 😵🤟
Oh, hell yes. One of my favorite songs. Awesome job, Richie, as usual.
Literal chills listening to this! One of my favorite songs from the 80's. The vocals couldn't BE any more spot on! FanTAStic job!!!

@David Schlom Awwww.... Having been raised (operative word being "raised") a good Catholic girl, I was VERY familiar with this phrase. Mercy, indeed.
@David Schlom Um, shouldn't you be tending to the meedlemeter? 😛
@David Schlom Why, I just happened to get some Romulan Ale for my birthday today. I'll bring some on Sunday. 🍺
Love watching these guys.
Man THAT was fun!!! GREAT JOB Richie!
Extraordinary job man!
Man, that is one hot, steaming dose of gooey 80s goodness right there. One of, if not THE BEST COVERS I've ever heard. Awesome job!
Wow! That was awesome!!! What a talent! New fan right here!!
Ritchie, all I can say is, Amazing! Not only the song, but more so, you!!
Absolutely and incredibly phenomenal Richie! Beyond perfection dude! 👊
I am absolutely speechless Richie. Incredible performance. A huge fan of you and your band up here in Canada! 🇨🇦
One of my favorite 80's songs Way to go Richie - You CRUSHED it. Very impressive. :-)
Dude, you KILLED this!!! One of my favorite songs of all time.
That group shot edit is 🔥🔥🔥
Richie, absolutely incredible! Thanks for doing this one!
Abso-fking-lutely knocked out of the park!!! AMAZING! The end cracked me up when you look at yourselves.
If all you did was edit this it would be outstanding, let alone perform ALL the parts. Thanks for being you.

Pressed "like" before even hearing a note, as I knew it would be awesome!! ...and, behold -- indeed !!!
I re-listened to this today, and wanted to re-thumbs-up it!
Kýrie, eléison means "Lord, have mercy" in Greek, and is a part of many liturgical rites in Eastern and Western Christianity.

Holy lord. Nailed it!
