Josh Gallagher, Luke Gallagher and Sal Abate covering one of the most powerful anthems of all time, Van Halen's "Dreams" from the "5150" album. This song has had a HUGE impact on me and is actually my earliest introduction to Van Halen. I was a diehard Power Rangers kid in the late 90s so one of my earliest memories is hearing this song in the credits of "Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie" and I loved it then just as much as I do now! It's definitely my favourite Hagar era track and for me there are very few songs that can match the triumphant power of "Dreams". This is also the first video in which I have filmed myself playing full bass and keyboard tracks. I'm so proud of this cover and I hope you enjoy it!

Mad respect to the vocalist. That's a bloody difficult song to sing and he nailed it.
Yes I was waitin for someone to sound this way striaght nail sam
Finding this after EVH's passing. Such a good cover.
@@darustyemperor5338 👌
Word, I try it every time I shower.
Every time I'm in the shower!!!!
You don’t even realize how high Sammy’s singing until you hear somebody else singing the same notes and it sounds like Geddy Lee.
Because Sammy's voice still had this deep, rough, rock timbre to it even when going ultrasonic high. Incredible singer.
That was my EXACT thought.. dam wanna go see the original and hear it.. Sammy makes it sound so natural.. quite amazing isn't it?
@@RyanMonty EVen in high registers, still has the rasp in his voice, very rare
@@gfgranja yeah I have no clue how he does it.
Still sounds good, though.
Any vocalist who has ever tried to sing this song (in the original key and octave) has instant respect for Sammy Hagar. Good cover, by the way!
May be you can listen dreams covered by atomic punk. That sounds more like original recording version
@@adinugroho_ITS I've listened to that cover you've recommended out of pure curiosity and man I can't say a good word about it. It's played too fast, guitarist doesn't hit the right notes sometimes and maybe vocal seems quite near to the original because of the voice timbre, but guy is starting to choke in the half-way of the song cause of high notes. As for me cover by joshkosh95 is technically a masterpiece.
@@adinugroho_ITS in my opinion, not even close, they don't even have keyboards
Awesome cover mate catching the numerous subtle changes in the lyrics. And couldn't agree more with VivaToddVegas above about covering this song in this octave/key.
Damn! Y'all nailed it!!! Amazing
Eddie would be proud of this cover you guys shredded it 🤟🤟🤟🤟
Seeing this for the first time in 2024. Killer cover, especially the vocals.
RIP Eddie, we will miss you...
I still can't comprehend that he's not with us anymore. He was always one of my heroes. He always will be, but I just can't wrap my mind around his death.
Songs like this are why I strongly prefer the Hagar era to the Roth era. This song is so beautiful.
Hagar better than Roth? GTFOH. You're f'n clueless.
@@jwc1977 I realize it's all a matter of opinion so I don't think you're wrong for liking Roth more, I just enjoyed the keyboard-heavy ballads like Right Now or Dreams to the spandexy hair metal of the Roth era.
@@jwc1977 well, Hagar could actually sing 🤷♂️
Totally agree with you. Van Hager was the best.
@@jwc1977 Very rude. DLR is a musical joke. He was a circus performer at best whom Eddie and the gang had to carry. Listen to him strain on the studio version of Dance the Night Away never mind anything he ever did live. If your statement was that the DLR era was a better version of VH I see the argument. They were essentially two different bands with two different messages. But from an instrumental, lyrical and vocal perspective they are not even in the same universe.
Ok, that vocal performance blew my mind.
I second that!
🤯🤯
First two lines I thought he wasn't that good but than🤯
@@TheMelody911 I honestly think it might have been nerves lol cuz he got better as the song went on
@@s1iznc1d34 no
fuck yeah on those vocals. damn. well done.
I'm back to say that after watching a few other versions of this song, THIS VERSION is THE ABSOLUTE BUSINESS!
Are you sure it's a cover? I could play this in front of my friends and I don't think they notice anything different from the original.
i hate everything, but this was incredible. alex's snare sound was perfect, the guitarist played note for note eddie, which is almost impossible, and the vocals.....just really impressive
it's not impossible to play Eddie note for note. guys do it all the time. on the other hand, it's nearly impossible to play Hendrix and Stevie Ray note for note.
It wasn’t note for note but it was very good all the same.
Great Performances.
5 stars ALL AROUND.
@@bconni2 eddie was far more creative than stevie ray his shit is boring and undynamic the way eddie played
I agree with you the guitar player did a flawless performance though some body disagree and talks about Hendrix it's not easy covering one of the greatest all time rock guitar players.
Y’all definitely made Eddie proud. God bless y’all.
Doubt it. He died
Narrator: "But Eddie was not proud of their lackluster talents. Not at all. Because Eddie played it all live. Not overdubbed and digitally corrected"
As a 60 year old Van Halen/Hagar fan, this is by far the absolute best cover of Dreams I’ve ever seen and heard! Outstanding guys! 👊
me too man..
this is one of the hardest songs to sing ... Seen Van Halen 4 times and Sammy hardly sings it live because its so hard ... Bravo , well done
Sammy's style uses a lot of chest voice while the singer here uses a lot more head voice that's why he sounds "thin" (like Axl Rose or Sebastian Bach). It's much easier to your voice box to sound thin when singing high notes. But how it fits to the song is a different question.
This cover literally made me cry.
We miss you, EVH!
BEST Dreams cover EVER.
100% agree..
Oh man... I'm so sorry for you.
@@datguitarplayer1656 Who?
Thanks so much for all the amazing comments everyone! I appreciate it!!
Guys, if I would have closed my eyes and listened I would have pictured the group playing but I kept them open to watch you guys. Awesome performance gentleman. Dreams never die, keep believing and dreaming!!!!
I have been a Van Halen fan forever. This literally gave me chills. The hair on my arms are all standing up. Awesome guys!!! Just wow!!!
Guys. Eddie Van Helen would be proud of you.
Man those guys are SOOOOOO Good and you can tell they LOVE to Rock!!!! Glad to see this generation loving and respecting ROCK!
This guy on vocals is amazing. Bring more covers with him.
There are two gallagher brothers who doesn't hate each other
the drummer bro is now with Derap
Jesus!!! I am BLOWN AWAY by how well you guys put this together to near perfection. I am a 50 year-old Van Halen fan and percussionist. The vocals, acoustics, percussion, bass lines...just flawless. I literally got choked up at the very end, thinking I had witnessed the second coming of the Sammy/Michael vocal matchup. Thanks for this, guys.
Gregory Stark Agreed bro!!!
Well when there all passed away somebody is going to have to play this live and all this music hopefully new jobs will be created since people will beg for this to come back when there's nobody to go see.
Bang on Sir...they have it nailed for sure
👌🤘💕
Gregory Stark uhhhhh......what he said.
Finding this after EVH's passing. Such a good cover.
My thoughts exactly, on both sentences!
RIP EVH 🌹
Much 💜 to everyone from Ontario, Canada
By far the closest I've heard anyone come to Van Halen. The guitarist has all the chops, but far more importantly, the joy and soul of Ed's playing. Drumming is spot on and the lead vocal takes on a bear and wrestles it to the ground. RIP Eddie.
"-Thanks to Power Rangers ...
-what ? No no thanks to Bulk and Skull !!"
So epic 😂 I love this movie so much !
If I closed my eyes - I can imagine a bit of Geddy Lee (1979 - 1985) singing this version - great cover.
Or the guy from Rock Star
There's a few different components to this cover, so I'm going to pick it apart.
Ok, first off. Whoever is in guitar, BRAVO! EVH is often imitated, seldom "duplicated". I think I just witnessed that solo being duplicated. And if it wasn't technically spot on, it was about as close as any mortal can get lol 👍
Secondly the drums are freakin perfect. AVH would be proud. I like the combo of the electric toms & acoustic snare, bass & cymbals. Just like on the original 1986 recording, and Alex's setup for the 5150 tour.
The keyboard, and vocals were also amazing.
I really tried to find something wrong with this cover, and found nothing! Absolutely incredible job by all! 👍🤘
The snare tone is perfect. Great job guys!
“Thank you Power Rangers”
To whoever understands the reference
genoves66 power rangers? Bulk & skull lol
Christian Sheppard PR movie ending with the fireworks
genoves66 I know lol I was just referencing a line from that particular scene when this song started to play lol
Fred: "Fred Kelman, the Gold Ranger!
Jason: "Oh no, get out kid!"
genoves66 mighty morphans forever ♾
This is without a doubt the best cover of Dreams on UA-cam! 10* stars. Most importantly you guys got the sound and tone within 99%. This is of Marc Martel quality.
The lead singer absolutely nails it!
Not really. Yes, he hit those high notes but he sounded very thin, almost like Axl Rose. I know a few people who can sing that high but also sounded thin like that, me included 😅. But haven't met anyone who can sound like Sammy Hagar and sing the whole song without sounding fatigued and pitchy towards the middle.
He nailed it, as far as staying in key, and the highs are definitely NOT an issue, but he needs some deepness to his vocals.
Not like I could do any better lol
He would probably NAIL Rush!!
You guys certainly did him proud. Rest in peace, Eddie, and thanks for sharing your Dreams.
Why is my eyes sweating? Thank u guys for this! Longlive Eddie
Unbelievable!
Great job !! Great job on capturing the sounds of VH.. Even then drums snare punch that Alex has a market on ;)
La música está idéntica, felicidades
Great job by all involved. Love the fact the drummer got that signature Alex Van Halen snare drum sound. That snare sound is as much a part of the Van Halen sound. As Eddie's guitar is.
YEAH !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Very, very, very good !!!!!!!!!!!!!
Spot on. The best VH cover I have ever seen hands down.
It’s not just your playing, but your presence and facial expressions reminds me of a young EVH. RIP Eddie
Great job by all. Sammy was and still is an absolute beast and not many people can get anywhere near him.
Stumbled across this cover in 2024... incredible cover of an amazing song! Well done lads!
This is still by far the best cover of Dreams.
61 thumbs down? I guess Roth's been here 61 times! Incredible job guys!
Public influence bots designed to force algorithms to show people what they think they might want to see...
🤣😂🤣😂 dickhead dave at it again
61 thumbs down via the vocals. Yeah.
Or has 61 different accounts.🤔
I knew it was him because one of the screen names was Humala bebuhla zeebuhla bop@ yahoo.com
Fantastic Rendition!!! RIP Eddie!!! Your legacy will live on forever in our hearts and music!!!
Wow! Excellent cover guys!
Major respect to the vocalist.
Shout out the guys on guitar! Y’all SHREDDED!
Great tribute too a ledgendary
Edward van Halen you can be proud❤😊 Alex Will be smilling now😊 youre voice looks like Sammy hagar great show you guys i never forget Edward van Halen RIP 1955-2020i miss his guitar riffs en shows he was a great performer but ledgends never Die not for me because when he see you performance this cover i now he be smilling✌️👍🏻
Парни творят чудеса!
You, guys, are rock-monsters!!! Keep da going!
I'm totally taken aback by your video... Wow! This was one of my favorite songs when I was younger. It was the first song I wanted to play when I was learning how to play the drums. It took me a long time, but I eventually got it. My HS boyfriend and I, together with our other friends, played this during a school event. He had really long, straight, shiny hair- And I, on the other hand, had super short hair. Boy, I miss those days. Now, I'm in my 40's and suffer from multiple sclerosis due to lesions in my spinal cord and my brain. I can hardly write or type, let alone play the drums. That's why I love videos like this one. It feels good to reminisce. Thanks so much for sharing. Sending you positive thoughts of love and support from the beautiful Philippine Islands...
Sincerely,
Francine Hope Drilon @};---
See Eddie, your music will live forever
May your soul rest in eternal peace
It's probably the number 1 covered song of dreams by Van Halen, good job guys, thumbs up!!
Kudos to the singer on this song. I can't even imagine trying to sing that song.
Big props to the singer for having the stones and chops to sing this song. Very nicely done.
Wooooooooow!!!!! This is the BEST cover of “Dreams”!!!!! Same feeling of the original Van Halen’s track! Thank you guys!
Check out SingitLive's version: ua-cam.com/video/pGv97-ngMCE/v-deo.html
Incredible rendition
RIP EDDIE!!!
*WOW!!! THAT VOICE MAN! DRUMS!!! GUITAR!!! BASS!!! THAT JUST KICKED ASS!!*
GREAT JOB!!!
Master Eddie is smiling from above nice 😀 👍
Eddie would be looking down feeling so proud of you guys. RIP Eddie, the greatest guitarist the world had.
Perfect cover!!! Best cover I've ever seen of the Van Hagar era and best cover I've ever seen without the people having to use the recording of Sammy Hagar's voice!!
RIP EVH...my music man forever....😢😢😢😭
Eddie Van Halen was a master of using the whammy bar. It might as well have just been another set of frets on the fretboard for him. The guitar work on this captures that excellently. Good job on everybody’s part.
Unfucking believable… These guys are on point and I would actually pay money to go see them. The lead singer sings a little bit higher than Sammy but they are all so on point… Bravo guys… Bravo👏🏼👏🏼🤘🏼♥️♥️
Such a great cover - true to the original on every instrument!
Great job by all involved but it makes it that more amazing how effortlessly sounding Sammy is when nailing these vocals (including over and over and over again live), never sounding nasally. One of the all-time greats for sure.
This cover nails what made Van Halen so great
Wow... excellent cover.. EVH was the King... RIP EVH.. he is gone but not forgotten..
Superb 🙏. A total masterpiece. Everyone on point. Everyone on que. A great great performance.
Excellent cover of one of my favorite Sammy Hagar-era Van Halen songs. I wore out two cassette tapes of the "5150" album. Thank God for CDs!
RIP Eddie Van Halen. True legends never really die.
Nailed it! Just awesome!
Agreed man! Best cover I've ever heard before!!
they are awesome and much better than the nowadays van halen!
I would love them to cover some great canadian band and artist like aldo nova triumph saga...canada was at the top of rock-prog-aor world
They are awesome and better than the nowdays Van Halen. I totaly agree man! The soul is out of the real Van Halen. Sammy and Michael Anthony were the soul in that band. And they just swept aside. But Chickenfoot is the result and to be honest I think I like Chickenfoot even more :-)
Outstanding performance!
👆🏻 *¡¡¡MAGNÍFICO!!!* 😃👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 *¡¡¡MA-RA-VI-LLO-SO!!!* 🤗🤗🤗🤗 NO HAY PALABRAS PARA DESCRIBIR SU VIRTUOSISMO. 😍😍😍😘❤️❤️❤️
man.. just no words.. infreakingcredible... the music is spot on. One would think its the original recording. Lead vocals are great too, but it is so hard to match Hagar step for step.. Kudos to everyone!!
Got a little moisture under the eyes during that final solo ngl. Beautiful cover ❤️
Yes he killed the end best ups to the vocalistt
This sounds amazing guys! Awesome Job!
Siiiiiiiick job, fellas. VH would be proud!
Fuckin A, They should be a signed rock group, Van Halen is gone but the memory lives on!
Parabéns amo Van Halen perfeito
Wow! Absolutely mind blowing talent gentlemen! Normally, I stay away from watching covers of Van Halen songs because there's so many on UA-cam that dont do justice to this incomparable legendary band but you guys are incredible! I wish you much success in whatever musical endeavors you all pursue. Talent this good should be rewarded handsomely. Keep rocking guys!
Ok I keep watching this video over and over again and am blown away ever time! Sal’s voice is perfectly suited for this song! His range is awesome! I love the expressions on Luke’s face while he’s shredding Eddies licks and lead! And Josh is just having tons of fun playing the keys, bass and drums! Rock on boys! 👊
Magnificent performance! The sound and style and cadence is so close to the original song....wow! No one can sound exactly like Sammy Hagar, but Sal Abate has been the closest so far.
i’m so obsessed with this
I have always loved that drum fill at 2:52
how bout fill at 4:02 ?
I love that one too - he nails them both in this
That was amazing and I know for sure if eddie was alive to see this. He would be proud of this cover and respect to the vocalist for nailing this song cause my throat hurt just trying to sing this song all along
Unbelievable! The BEST cover to Dreams I've ever heard. I looked away from the screen and I could not tell the difference then if Eddie and Sammy were in my phone. I am a huge Van Halen fan and you guys nailed it! Well done fellas!!
I can't tell the difference between these amazing guys and the real Van Halen. They're great!!!!!😊
There Exists, No possible reason, whatsoever, in the entire universe and beyond, that this particular cover of Dreams, Could ever, even be considered, for a thumbs down. Huh, and yet, there are 9 of them. Hmmm
It's what jealous people do.
Thumbs down? Yeah Wtf? - if only they could do a better job....i doubt it. I would never mark a thumbs down without being able to do the whole job better, these people should need to prove they can do better or don’t comment. It was the best recording ive heard since the original well done.
It's called jealousy, plain and simple.................if you cannot appreciate that, there is unquestionably and definitely somehing wrong with you!
Fantastic guys YEAHHH!🤘
No cover of any song will ever touch this masterpiece. You guys are really talented.
Feeling passive- aggressive today?
@@jdsheleg8332 No.
That was just absolutely faaaaaantastic!👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Band was amazing, singer could fill in for Sammy if they wanted to play that song. Insane!
Oh man! You chaps are brilliant, love the vocals, amazing. Keep them coming, you're fantastic!
Nailed it! Everything down to the snare drum sounds spot on!
LOve it. The younger generation knowing what Rocks all about!
As an old fart, who actually saw VH in the day... Mad Respect. Love this. So much.
Superbe reprise de ce tube 🎹🎸.👌.
Phenomenal job guys. It is awesome how much fun playing music is. Hats off to you
It was flat out perfect. The only thing I missed was Sammy's gravelly voice, but there's a reason why he's been one of the top performers for 50 years. There's almost no one who can do it the way he does. Outstanding job by everyone.
el mejor cover que he oído de este rolón, felictaciones!!!
Amazing works, RIP Eddie
Not all heroes wear capes. I probably watch this once every six months, and will for the rest of my life. Easily my favorite version of my favorite song not blessed by King Ed himself. Thanks for this, fellas.
Good to see that there are still some young musicians left. Great job boys!
To Jason David Frank and Original Mighty Morph Power Rangers keep ur dreams higher
