We Are The Champions originally performed by: Queen
Written by: Freddie Mercury
Amazing, I loved it! ❤
Awesome! Such a beautiful effort and very well executed as well! The two kids were just 💙! Alissa, Jen and Alex killed it! Loved that the two super ladies mentioned the people who take care of our four legged friends as well! Big thanks to all involved in this great collaboration!
It's my/our pleasure. I'm really happy you enjoyed the project so much. Thank you Aris.
Jason McNamara - LSwFF Thank you for the great idea and the effort Jason! I shared it with some of my friends, it deserves to be seen more, perhaps if you contact some metal media like Blabbermouth and the like they would mention the video at their news section of their websites?
The 2 little kids are the real rock stars and that really got me :-)
They are a handful, but they are also pretty wonderful.
@@JasonMcNamara They are our future and you are a good man Jason :-) Keep On Rockin :-)
Alissa White-Gluz ❤️ insieme ad Elize Ryd tra le voci femminili più belle del Rock/Heavy . Matijevic ancora oggi, ha una canna, che i trepper ,repper attuali neanche con 100 kg di Autotune riescono ad avere risultati simili.
Gran versión 🤟🎸 sobre todo un gran acierto invitar a Alissa💙
I seriously can't wait for The Fanstaisa of 2020!!! Yayayaaaa!!!!!! MEOW
WTF!! Only 990 likes up to the moment to this rock jewel!!!??? What's going on? Come'on and share!!!
No doubt ; the music of QUEEN is inmortal !!!!!!!!!!
How can I say........ Just awesome.......!!!
Miljenko, Alissa, Paulie an Jen, you fantastic singing this song!
Of course it's no necessary talk about how perfect are everyone involved in this record, Brian and all of then are Simply the best!
Thank you Mario. It was a joy to do this with so many talented people.
Congrats Jason!!!!
It was an amazing work join each component and mix into a perfect song!
So concerning this song, it's better than the original version for me, it's interesting to see the difference vocally speaking when Alissa sings this kind of song and when she does metal, so it's really nice your cover and nice to have done that. You guys rock and long live rock. 🔥
WOW... just wow!!! Thank you Marie. Personally I don’t believe us or anyone could ever top Queen. I’ve been listening to them since I was 9 years old, but I do deeply appreciate your sentiment. Thank you 😊
Great version! Thanks to all who participated in this.
Nice call getting Skolnick!
Thank you. Yes, Alex is awesome not just as a player, but he’s a VERY kind soul. Plus he absolutely killed it on this track. Thanks for watching and enjoying.
@@JasonMcNamara Great player and he does seem very nice not that I've met him but I've been a life long fan. I'm a thrash guy thru and thru since birth lol. but I did enjoy this and it's message, thanks!
Why isn't Roger Taylor playing the drums?
Was awesome before and even more brilliant now. Once again Jason, what a fantastic job putting this together in such a heartfelt way.
Thank you very much LIAOFW!!! It was a huge task and I’m glad it’s finally out there. This one took 5 weeks from start to finish and not I’m happy it’s done 😃
This song is a world anthem... a Legend ( like Freddie )
I love this version so much! All of the musicians that appeared on this video are AWSESOME! Now that you did your part and thanked so many people I think it's time to thank YOU for all your support these days and that you just exist and offer so much to the music industry! Rock on and continue to inspire us! Love you guys! 🤘💕
Who the hell clicks dislike on something like this?
As I just said to another similar comment, some people just hate on anything that comes their way 🤦♂️
Miljenko is so great ❤️❤️❤️❤️
WOW!! Thanks Paul Stanley 😉
Are you the real Paul Stanley?
Yes he is.
champions , and my idol #alissawhitegluz
Amazing!!! Thanks a lot for this great work Jason!! As we say in Mexico: Está chingonsísimo!
I believe that would be a nice compliment so thank you 😊
@@JasonMcNamara it is, indeed!!

Awesome performance by EVERYBODY, I loved it and it made me tear up a bit. In my mind this was sung so effortlessly by Freddie and the way the singers really push themselves to deliver close to his range is admirable!
Thank you Martin. This whole project was my idea. I coordinated everything and edited the video. So believe me, I really appreciate your wonderful comment. Thank you.
Nice to see God on guitar I mean Alex Skolnick. Cheers!
Well I didn’t think you were talking about me 🤣 Thanks for watching our video 👍
@@JasonMcNamara LOL! Thanks for posting it was very enjoyable! Cheers!
Excellent all the Musicians!!! Respect!!!
Thank you 😊
@@JasonMcNamara You're welcome . MaxDrummer from Las Vegas N.V.
You sir are a champion, thank you Jason.
Thanks @tone bolts. That's very kind of you to say 🤘
You girls made my day! You guys need a bit more practice... Just kidding! You were really good!
Yes indeed. Alissa & Jen did an amazing job on this one. Thanks for watching.
Its about time we had a we are the champion song for all necessary workers, no other versions will compare to the people who put time and effort into this song
Thank you Kyle. When we did Hammer To Fall that only took 4 & a half days from start to finish. This project took 5 weeks to get the way I wanted it so your kind words there really mean a LOT to me. Thank you.
Excelente!
Awesome job putting this all together! Arranging must have been so difficult!deciding who to put on what part! If I had done it, it would have ended up being mostly Miljenko! Heck, who am I kidding, It would’ve been ALL Mili clips! Lol
Nah, they were all great. I just think he’s amazing!
I agree that his voice is absolutely outstanding, however everyone here did an amazing job and I'm so thankful to each and everyone of them.
Awesome job Jason !
Paulie Z!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Beautiful
Great great great job
Thank you.
Who "dislikes" a Queen cover that literally features Queen's guitarist Brian May???
Who knows. Some people just hate everything. It’s kind of sad for them, but their problem.
Haters gonna hate....
AMAZING VIDEO , million thanks from Denmark
It’s my absolute pleasure. Thank you Hans 😊
Jason, as usual mate you outdo the world in response to contributions. Keep up the great work mate! Would love to join you for a podcast some time!
Are you still based in Japan?
Sending you best wishes Melbourne, Australia!
That's one hell of a compliment. Thank you Michael. Yes I'm still in Japan. If you wish to reach out to me try me on Facebook (dot) com / lswff
I'm sure you can reconstruct that into a link. It won't post on here otherwise.
why isn't this Trending already?
No idea. I guess it needs to get more organic views. If you’re able to help get some eyes on this video it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you Fast Eddie 👍
❤👍
Thank you, Jason.
I love this version enough that I wish it was available to purchase somewhere.
What a beautiful compliment. You may be happy to know that I'm the one who put this whole thing together and edited the video. I say that not for praise, but so you know your kindness has reached the very person who would feel your compliment the deepest so kind sir... thank you 🤩
@@JasonMcNamara I've been a retail employee for almost 13 years now including having worked the entire time the pandemic has been going on. To say that it's been stressful is an extreme understatement.
😭😭😭😭 veryyy amazingggg!!!! I love you all !!!!
She is amazing indeed!!! And thank for for coming to the NEW upload. It’s appreciated.
Outstanding
Fixed Alissa's name hahah Nice! Great video, I need to say it again. Great upload ;)
wow man what a legendary group of muso's to get together to thank the people that are making a real difference now to all of our lives, risking their own health for us.
Thank you Mr Pistilli 👍🤩🤘
Amazing job once again Jason. Great to see everyone pulling together like this to share the message. Excellent track and the kids were awesome! Thanks for your tireless efforts putting this all together mate !
What a wonderful comment. Thank you Ian. This one was a Mammoth of a project to pull together, but I'm happy with the way it turned out. Cheers!
@@JasonMcNamara Legend !
This is great! Thank you all involved. You too are Champions!
That's very kind of you to say. Thank you 😊
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 awesome my friend ! .... kids were great !!!
Thanks BV!! It’s the first time I ever put them on one of my videos as I guess you would know. They LOVE Queen and this song. They asked to be in it so I said ok in this occasion.
@@JasonMcNamara yes that's why I loved it so much and know they love Queen, glad you let them this time 🙂 Great for them and the family to have this 'awesomeness' documented to look back at. You all stay safe my friend
I have recorded it by myself
Great work, Jason! :) - Andy (Canada)
Flip'n Awesome... Just say'n...
Hahahaha!!! 🤣 Thanks Mickey!!
Oh yes, still, absolutely amazing and stunning.
All those artists fit so very well together, and those kids 😭😍
Best shivers
Thank you. It's the FIRST TIME EVER that I've allowed them to be on anything public like this. Normally I wouldn't, but they really wanted to be a part of it and it's for something pretty special.
It definitely is something special, and they'll be grateful you let them be part of
Very Nice! Michael Sweet @ the 1:53 mark !
Indeed he is. The only reason he's not singing on this is because he was swamped recording the new up coming Stryper album. Thanks for watching.
Yearghhh!
Спасибо. Браво.
Wonderful song!
It's so awesome
Thanks.
Even Better!
Thank you Billy Snow 😊
👏🏼🎵🤩👏🏼
Sub
THANK YOU 😊
@@JasonMcNamara wellcome
Still AWESOME!
Haha!! Thanks John. We do what we can 😃
wow...!!!
WHO is corrupt
Yes, but this isn't about that. It's about appreciation of the folks working hard, sometimes in dangerous conditions, to help others. Why not celebrate them as these folks have?
Great video and sound....it just needs more cowbell.....
OH NO 🤦♂️ People are still "banin' on" about needing more cowbell??? Jan Hannon @jay7over8 did our sound and what an amazing job he did with the files coming in from all over the place. I did the video side of things. So from all of us, thank you 😊
@@JasonMcNamara First, Kudo's to you and the others who worked on the video. You ALL did GREAT work for a noble cause. I shared the video with a lot of friends, including more than a few in the music business.
Jay did an awesome job, as did you. The timing of the cuts, the leveling of different volumes from different sources, the right amount of compression, pitch, and the spectral balance is all outstanding. It's a lot of work and takes a good ear.
Ask Jay where he got his favorite Ibanez 7 string.
I know where he got it from. But what I don’t know is who you actually are so please message me on Facebook. I’d love to chat with you privately. I really appreciate you sharing this video and also for you statement on that other idiot’s comment. Thanks for backing me up 🤘
Lol so funny! It was written “arch enemy, the agonist and Kamelot” under Alissa, and then they’ve changed it. Hmmm, I wonder ?
And I’m sorry, but her voice is so cringe 😬
I made a stack of changes, not just that. And personally I think her voice is absolute magic on this video. Can’t please everyone I guess.
I saw her with The Agonist on their first tour opening for Sonata Arctica and she absolutely blew my mind. If I'm not mistaken she was like 18. 🤯 Shot pool with a couple of her band members afterward too 😎😆. This video is AMAZING, and I'm going to share everywhere!
fig burnsfat I got to see the agonist with Alissa and with their current singer, Vicky. They’re a great fucking band, and the boys are super cool! I like Alissa and she’s talented, but her clean can be nasally. I prefer Vicky’s clean because she can do lots of different style. I got the chance to see them this year at the 70k tons of metal before covid19, and they’re amazing live.
Listen to her live Togetherathome with GusG and her accoustic performance of Yesterday by the Beatles or Reason to Believe by ARch Enemy, both are fucking amazing nd LIVE. Her cleans have improved tremendously. While at it, also watch a snippet of her cover from Preaching at the end of the world on her Insta. Her vocals are somewhat nasally, yet absolutely beautiful. Nothing cringe about it.
The WHO and the virus research funding is what got us here. Regulate genetic research the same as Nuclear research, one as you can see is far more destructive than the other.
Good luck with that. Virus research is a good thing if you want to learn & learn how to battle new viruses. Ignoring them is a choice, meaning ignorance. Now instead of hijacking the thread, why not celebrate the people who are on the front lines and the people who appreciate them.
btw, I wonder how much realtime autotune are they using?
The answer is ZERO!! Man, you're all full of hate and moaning aren't you!! Must be a sad life being you.
@@JasonMcNamara I can hear autotune on most recordings. I do NOT hear autotune in this. I guess you have to consider the source of the whiner.
Cringe.
Can't please everyone I guess.
Some people lend their talents and work hard to appreciate other people's dedication & hard work helping others, sometimes in dangerous conditions, others with little to offer, criticize.
Please
Musicians used to be truth teller and they are not now. I'm so sad.
Can’t make everyone happy 😑
It must suck to be you.
