I COULDN'T HOLD MY TEARS || Javi Perera - Lune (Periphery vocal cover) 

The goal: perform the song. The obstacle: Spencer Sotelo.

This is the most powerful cover I've seen, especially at the end. I hope Spencer sees this.

This is the one single track by Periphery that I actually skip over, every time. Not because I don’t like it, I love it. It’s one of my favorite Periphery songs. But it wrecks me. This song must mean something different for everyone. It got me through a rough time of loss. That said, I still love it. Amazing cover btw!!

I usually don't like vocal covers of Spencer but holy shit dude you got your own sound, you can sing, you have range, it fits the song. Nice

Man you touched some notes on some souls today for sure.

*I listened to this song when I was in a relationship with a girl I wanted to be with for a very long time, she broke up with me five months ago now it’s extremely hard to listen to this song but I come back to it just to remember “I wasn’t the one that let go.”*

This song got me though losing my best friend and grandparents all within 30 days of each other. Reminds me of them every time I hear it. I feel the emotion of this song 100%. Good job. Yes I feel the love, and I’ll never let it go.

Yup, this tune balls me up every time. It’s like a Hans Zimmer movie score with some of the most beautiful lyrical content. You did a hell of a job!!

Absolutely KILLED it at 4:00 dude. I've been following Periphery and of course peoples covers for years. This is probably one of the best Lune covers out there. God Speed man, you did great!

This is awesome man. I dont think Periphery fully knew what an impact this song would achieve. fucking beautiful.

Dude, huuuuh what can I say.. your performance goes right to my heart. Goosebumps from the beginning to the end.. Never seen so much emotion in a cover. Oustading singing, really... I would love to hear your version of « it’s only smiles ». Keep it up 👍🏼

The first one who covered Periphery so good with feel

@4:12 yesss

Absolutely loved it. Didnt tried to copy, Just original tone and voice. Cheers

I call this singing with feeling... made me cry brother, great cover :')

I know you posted this a few years ago now but I just discovered it today and I have to commend you. I have seen and heard many great vocal covers over the years... but this is the first time I truly felt one. Not only was your performance impressive technically but from an artistic perspective... this is about as real as it gets... despite the fact that they aren't your words you expressed them in a way that felt like they were a part of you... I had to rewatch as I'm writing this and you even grabbed my little 1 year old son's attention... super impressive man... keep up the great work

Very nice and emotional performance, keep rocking man!!! 👏👏👏

4:11 was insane dude! absolutely loved your singing, so much power and emotion in it. keep up the good work, much love!

Such emotions in your voice.... its an absolutely wonderful moment

I was sceptical at first... But you KILLED it!!! Congrats and thank you!

Wow. wow. I'm one who almost never cries while listening to music but .. man, couldn't hold them tears back at the 2nd 'dont let go'. You really sang this from the heart, I'm going as far as to say you out performed Spencer. Don't get me wrong, he's amazing, but I feel this song for you because as amazing Spencer is, you really felt this one. Whenever I want to listen to Lune I'm listening to your cover.

Perfect, dude! Made me cry too... 4:00

God this song is so hard to sing properly. Amazing job, man.

That was just emotionally high level approach, man! Nailed the whole song, added your own little nuances and let your emotions out! Truly a great and touching work!

wow pure and RAW talent your a amazing vocalist

Killer cover! Sounds like you have your heart all in it! I would think you need to be feeling this song to sing it like that.

We need to get Periphery to see this! I felt that emotion all the way to my soul...

I love Spencer, but this dude put A LOT MORE emotions in each word that he sang. Gosh I cried

Goosebumps man, good job!

Love your singing. Really powerful!

this easily deserves a million views. Powerful voice man. I tear up every time I hear the ending of this song

Damn man that was amazing. I had the same exact reaction that you had the very first time I heard this song. It was so beautifully overwhelming I just lost it and couldn’t stop crying. It is still one of the most perfect and beautiful songs I have ever heard. You did an incredible job covering this.

Lune cover at its best

Amazing cover! Greetings from Argentina!

unreal man. I have the same feelings for this song. Periphery seems to get me...thank you for the excellent cover!

I love this brother; I have goosebumps, cry ; this only make us strongers 🤟🏻

Your vocal control and breathing focus on this cover is just absolutely superb. I actually got emotional watching this version. Thanks for sharing your cover of this song to the world, really nice job man 👌

Wow....amazing cover brother.... it pains my heart and warms it simultaneously to see the emotion of this song come out in your cover...CHEERS!!

Dude you took something really beautiful and made it your own. The first time I’ve been hooked to a vocal cover - amazing interpretation of a beautiful tune 🙌🔥

Now That was purely Insane And subworthy \m/

Amazing! I've never gotten goosebumps like that from a vocal cover!

Javi, that's it Heavenly fair!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Incredible performance, so hurt. You’re amazing congratulations.

Your amazing bro..

Jesus christ Javi....!!!!! Don´t let go...! Beautiful!

Holy shit....dude...you're incredible. Thank you for this amazing cover, even 4 years later. Not many people can cover Spencer Sotelo, and most shouldn't try. But goddamn...you nailed it!

Amazing job, buddy!! 🔥 Fanstastic performance!!

This song is too much. Awesome cover man! Can’t listen to it without fighting back tears . Had my wife listen to it and she really liked it . So much emotion

Music is powerful. I cry every time

One of my favorite songs of all time and you really digged that cover

Beautifully done, man. I cried when I did my cover of this song as well. It just... hits different.

What... Dude...This was Amazing! You are definitely on pro-level! 10/10 bro keep up the good work!

This is it, sing allout to the deep, but still no one know how great this song dude, you're awesome 💯

Incredible voice! Best Periphery cover I have heard

Wonderful song! Great cover. I'm glad I got to see them perform this live. Definitely felt the love in the venue that night

So strong! Seems like this song brought out something extraordinary and real from you and its moments like these that make it all worth something. Thanks!

Wow ! Awesome cover ! So powerful and emotional !

Wow I am speechless, so beautiful. You made me cry too

Always come to this when I'm having a peripheryathon quality cover mate 👌🏽

Eres increíble Javi, me quedé cautivado de principio a fin 🥹

Awesome cover!! I caught that feel.

Holy Jesus... The way you end notes sometimes just feels so harsh and real, love it. Amazing cover!

It’s all good bro. I used to sing along to Satellites all the time (with the exception of the section with the G5 of course…I’ve hit it before, but only on really good days). Now I can’t make it halfway through, either singing or just listening because at some point, my Husky Bebe, would sneak into the room and lay down and just listen to me sing. She loved it. I know because literally under every other circumstance she would see me and come up and push me with her nose so I’d pet her and she’d lick me…forever if she had her way (she was one of those licking obsessed dogs). But she broke in…just to hear me sing. She died last year…fuck, I’m crying so hard right now. I had her from when she was a puppy and she lived to be 14. She was my first dog and I miss her. I really still can’t believe she would lay there and listen to me sing. So although due to a different reason, I know exactly how it is to get extremely emotional while singing. I loved this cover by the way. You have talent for sure. Bastard…(that’s my envy). Awesome cover for sure. I gotta do something to stop this emotional mess I’ve manifested.

HELL YES DUDE!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

I feel the love

Wooow! This is amazing you absolutely nailed it! Zesty!!!!

I love to see this, this is PASSION

To understand the message of others through music is very unique. That was a powerful song to cover through vocals. From a musician standpoint, you took on the feelings and thoughts Spencer had written down over a period of time to make Lune, you filled his shoes for just those few minutes and felt what i believe is to be my own version of "Music Unison". I saw your passion when singing, i could only imagine how you felt. Anytime i try to sing along on the held notes at the end, i choke up, it's to beautiful to follow. Anyways, it's great seeing others understand music and the love for it.

You nailed it brother! Period.

This song gets me almost every time. And you got me too. Thanks man i feel the love. Take care.

Beautiful

gave me goosebumps...👏👏

Such a great cover of a great song. Nice pipes my dude. 👍❤️

perfection with emotion!

This is a fucking beautiful cover Javi, thank you for sharing this with us.

This is incredible man! Amazing vocal performance.

It feels good to do it right and follow through. Damn amazing job man.
