Such an underrated band. Best band of the 90s. Those riffs

Not just a 90s band, folks. They are still putting out great, new music.

collective soul is a band who has the coolest guitar riff youll ever hear,i mean the song like heavy,where the river flows,trembel for my beloved,simple,listen,precious declaration and many others..brilliant guitarist..thats what separate them from other alternative bands...

I would dare to say this is the best live version I have ever listened to if compares with the studio version. And it's not that the studio's is bad, the live one just rocks!!

Ross is killing it with his PRS guitar!

I was born in 1999, in between these two videos (February and September). Wish I was old enough to even know who the hell Collective Soul was, but I'm happy I discovered them in 2019. Took long enough. I get to see them live next month 3 times (all front row!) which is all I can think about now. A legendary band from the beginning to now.

Love this song. Love this Band. I,m still rocking at 66yrs old . 👍 Awesome

That Jay Leno performance is one of the best.

Now that is a face melting lead solo!!!

Man! That "Heavy" is one of the best CS performances I've ever seen on video. Ross is so in the zone on both of those songs.

I like how all the guitars are used in this version back in the day!

This is What Rock sounds like!!

Better than the original if you ask me. These guys are still putting out new music and putting on great shows.

Been combing YT for live versions of Heavy.. This and the Woodstock 99 are the best IMHO. Ross Childress just slays it!

23 years later Collective Soul still rocks! Their new single All Our Pieces is good!

Ross is a beast in the guitar! I recently saw Collection Soul in concert with their new guitarist, no way near the face melting only Ross can do...

One of the best bands in the 90's. I loved the album after Dosage.

This is my favorite CS video. To hear and see such brilliance is absolutely priceless. Ross has got to be one of the most talented guitarists around. Show me somebody else who can do what he does. He never misses a chord whether he's playing acoustic or electric. Every single one of CS's songs from their first five albums sounds that much better because of him. What a terrible lost when he left the band...

If Collective Soul was a building, so Ed Roland is the designer and Ross Childress is the painter. Ed built it and Ross made it beautiful.

Man! Ain't they something?! Tremendous Talent, Riffs that can just blow you away.

God I love will Turpin's backup vocals

Nice....We need real music like his again!

TAKE ME BACK TO 1999!!!

The guitar sound is huge.

Best rock band

Owwwww Ross!!! Go baby go!!!!!!

Ross is without a doubt one of the most progressive guitarists to emerge from the 90s, along with Mark Tremonti from Creed. C.S. will never be the same without Ross. Such a shame of what happened 😢

So awesome this Band, love every song! Great job guys!!! xoxo LoLa

Insanely good, I can listen to these solo from childress..mad talent……

Ross is in some kind of zone during Tremble. Incredible playing.

ROSS amazing finger tips

I miss Ross Childress playing with Collective Soul. Wish they'd do a get together album one day or something cool.

Collective Soul has been my favorite band since 1995 when their self titled album came out and it has been in my car ever since. With Ross their music was sooooooo much better. Without Ross, they haven't been the same. I still enjoy some of their post Ross music but I think about what might have been had things transpired differently.

Collective Soul is cool as hell, they rock !!!

No autotune, no editing, no ProTools copy/paste, just live real musicianship and songwriting kicking ass. We need a shit ton more of that again.

whoa didn't know Sean Penn could sing this great when he was young!

Our band is gonna cover this! were learning it now. Can’t wait!!

Esto era el alma de los 90's

ROSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!!

Great band with great music!

I own an exact replica of Ed's white PRS Archtop.

Ross!!!

It was amazing seeing a video of my elegant vampire telling lots of "yous" "no, you didn't choose her, they chose her" showing a picture of other versions of "you"

NICE POST, THANKS!

one of the most unique sounding band

dang I didn't know these guys were so jammin'

Just gimmee gimmmeeeeeeee i love you boys ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

looks like he dropped it some point along the line. lol he had one in the start of the song. i never noticed until i ready your comment

[X] Bucket List : Finally got to see these guys last week at Humphrey's By The Bay in San Diego.

Notorius up m8 Thnks a lot! CS ROCKS!! CHEERS! :)

The guitarist is perfect

I was at this Conan taping!

You're right. Good observation. That's way cool!

thanks.

Amazing riff Ross finger tips

Jason Statham and life house Jason, spent last couple hours buying enough ice cream to fill every condo building... You'll be just fine😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘😘

Wow, im in love❤

Ross Childress!!!!

Love that snare sound

ross childressssssss

Forgot about this band, saw them at EdgeFest in 99

No one else has ever man handled a guitar quite like Ross Childress.

Freaking killer 🎉

And at 2.42.

this was the "bored" episode. rip norm.

Good Stuff

Almost done

This band without Ross Childress was no longer the same. The blonde guitarist was the one who gave the characteristic sound of this band.

More presentations at tv spots.

It looks like Ross played the entire song Heavy without a pick. You can really notice from 2:30 on.

Still playing at a venue near you

Shane's rubber ducky :)

Both hosts roll their eyes everytime they announce the band. When I broke both their necks it was for a different reason... And don't worry both hosts are aliens too, and just shapeshifts back to normal

Ross marry me!!

ross on fire

Its like hes sneaking closer to the drumset😂

Still like the acustic version best. Morocco! 🤘

I just know it, if I was using the ebow at the same time, as in "Tremble for My Beloved," I would probably send the darn pick flying as soon as I released the ebow. :) I don't reckon we'll ever see that happening with that Childress dude.

Oh got it .!sonRoss is a guitarist

childress rules!!!

I wonder if the band realizes how missed Ross is.

No one has ever seen Ross like this before.. You are seriously, officially okay with grandpa Ed, now??? I can't handle Ross anymore

Personally, I like Dean on lead over Jesse, in the current lineup.

This line up is the greatest its sad ross is lone gone in this band and i guess will never come back due to personal conflicts CS still my favorite

I miss Ross Childers. His riffs was bad azz. Their replacement for Ross. Is not near as good.

Ross Childress is just from another planet. Every CS live video I've watched, he always stole the show, went crazy with the guitar nobody else could do. The shows after he left, including concerts I've ever watched, were more balanced with Ed Roland as dominant figure. Even Eddie VH wasn't really like this in Van Halen shows, Ross guitar just couldn't stop.

I'm sorry Joel...But, Damn! Ross is the SHIT!!!

Aiden tries to do his hair like this now, because if I can't see to clearly while you're invisible, I'll just never know Your drummer has been emotional lately... No I don't see him

The sickest riff Ed ever wrote and the sickest solo Ross ever played

Ross Childress was the best. CS was a great band, but without RC's guitar genius they were just average.

lololol, so weird to see people use an e-bow. Nice to see Ross in his prime though. They just weren't the same after he got booted from the band. I wonder what Kevin (Eubanks) was thinking too seeing Ross going all crazy, lol. Kevin is a jazz dude who plays with his thumb and fingers instead of a pick.

Then feed my big fat belly Ed

4 guitars what

I miss Ross Childress so much I only own the first five albums.

sin lugar a dudas los riffs de ross son increibles,. y la banda esta ociosa de eso actualmente...............

He looks better with beard.

They have become a shell of themselves since Ross was kicked out. Lead singer was jealous because his wife wanted a real snake and Ross slipped it in. She privileged Ross to play in her playground
