Hi there, my name is Leo and run a studio on the westside of Norway where I do music and video stuff for youtube. I also have a band called Frog Leap, where we do my metal covers live.


For my covers I play everything myself as well as record, mix, master, shoot and edit the music & videos.

    Man, Leo has gotten his moneys worth from that little drum set. I think he’s been using it for several years. 😊
  • No matter what version of this song I hear, I'm always taken back to Short Circuit 2. Johnny 5 is STILL alive!!
  • Bunny Tyler. Extremely well done. Almost as melodic as original, but with more power and Slayer vibes.
  • @rzrrox4202
    Love this dude, he takes a song i didnt mind and turnt it into a song i absolutely love! 2024 and loving every second of this song.
  • @memikeymikey
    That was way more awesome than I could have ever expected. I loved the extra punch at "hero". I'd love to see Bonnie Tyler's reaction to this.
  • @smashtoad
    I can't stop listening to this. Do you hear it, men of the west?
  • @Perci_plays6984
    A fan and a retired firefighter here. this is great on so many levels.
  • @KRaul1981
    Requesting to make a cover for "We didn't start the fire"!!! I'm not alone here who has the same wish
  • @scumdog1012
    I don't need a hero, I allready have one. A Metal hero. ;)
  • Love it and as a firefighter I really appreciate the video and the way the song fits. Thank You Leo
  • Ok I can't believe my eyes and ears !!! With all the platforms to hear music from, why is this man not on every single radio station?? I'm 52 and he is the most amazing man in music in my opinion. Is there anything he can't play ? Truly the most talented musician I have seen. Thank you for your music. I'm not a country fan but you did a cover of Charlie Daniel's and it is great so if you were to do Uneasy rider that im.sure you could turn it metal.
  • @freeman-1776
    I was a US Army Firefighter and let me tell you, this captures the spirit of a hero in a very real way. Wouldn't trade those days for anything. Great theme song.
  • @aeroturner
    OMG this song explains why I'm a patreon!! Such awesome song choices anyway, and we get amazing pearls on there on top! Someone invent another thumbs up button so I can give it another one!!!
  • Honestly, this song has always inspired my imagination and it’s so damn fitting for our society today. We need our heroes back.
  • @jasoncarr551
    On Sunday 7.10.22 my family said goodbye to one of our own. He was my Uncle and was a Fire Chief of 2 departments. When asked why come out of retirement ; He said " Because I can help". He was and is always my hero. I learned about sacrifice by his actions and became a U.S. Marine. Rest easy : I have the watch. Thank you for this Leo.
  • The improvised vocal bridge (where it's normally an improvised guitar solo) blew my mind! This was just awesome!
  • @Salohcin_x
    As someone who practically watched 'Footloose' on repeat as a kid, this cover makes me unreasonably happy lol.
  • @chrissparks3254
    That little drum set and the dancing rabbit kills me 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 best cover artist ever! 👍
