Knight Rider - Theme (1982) Synth+Guitar Cover

This is my cover of the theme song of a cult 80s TV series: Knight Rider of 1982.

This song has always been one of my favorites of all time ... a beautiful composition created by Stu Phillips and Glen A. Larson.

Played with: Yamaha CS1x and VST Synthesizer

Guitars and Bass played with: Gibson Les Paul Deluxe

Hope you like it ;)

ps: This cover was created completely from scratch.

_KOSmusic. A shadowy flight into the musical world of a man who does not exist. Michael KOS, a young loner with a synth, to champion the covers of classic shows, the ageless, the nostalgicness. In a world of youtubers who operate above the copyright law…_

This isn't a cover... this is a remastering.

"Knight Rider. A shadowy flight into the dangerous world of a man who does not exist. Michael Knight. A young loner on a crusade to champion the cause of the innocent, the helpless, the powerless. In a world of criminals who operate above the law."

He did it so perfectly, YouTube thinks its the original song. Very well done!

[bmused]

This is how a cover should be done. True to the original. No stupid overbearing beatz or drums.

How in the actual heck does someone write a song like this? I don’t even understand it but I can appreciate all the layers that creatively mesh together into such an awesome beat.

i was born in 1979, i grew up listening to this music and watching K.I.T.T ...still after decades this music makes me feel the same way ... Isn't that strange ?

That was time-travel magic. I had no idea this theme-song could be played close to the original. The sound, the fonts, the atmosphere! Congratulations sir.

The Knight Rider theme is the best of all time.

I played this in my car.


It's still a regular car, but I turned into David Hasselhoff.

It's amazing! Knight Rider's TV show is about to begin! Very real! Cool! Knight Rider became a big boom in Japan about 35 years ago. I felt very nostalgic.

When even YouTube copyright claims your cover, you know you did great job :D

Knight Rider has been my favorite childhood show. As a 2 year trucker who loves to drive at night and as I've always been mainly a night driver I've always considered myself a "Night Rider".

I honestly forgot how cool the Knight Rider theme was. Fantastic.
