On Saturday, YouTube musician Tyler Ward announced he will be releasing a cover video of "Rolling in the Deep" by Adele with famous youtube sensation, Sam Tsui. Kurt Hugo Schneider played the background music and produced the video. He released the video on Sunday morning and there are already a large sum of comments and "thumbs up" on the video.

Prior to the video release, fans could listen to the preview and buy the song on iTunes. Even though the raw emotion on their faces can not be seen on the iTunes preview, many fans anticipated a great performance.

Sam Tsui recently graduated from Yale University and has not made as many video in the past few months. Nonetheless, the video in collaboration with Tyler Ward is a wonderful welcome back to the YouTube music scene. Many fans hope Tsui will make more videos with production by Schneider.

The "Rolling in the Deep" cover with Sam Tsui and Tyler Ward is Ward's 100th video on YouTube. He recently uploaded a cover with Australian pop singer, Cody Simpson and followed the release with a UStream live session. Ward announced tour dates with Boyce Avenue in Europe and his 100th video with Sam Tsui.

As the comments are posted on their video, it is clear that the fans are loving the collaboration. Maybe the video will become a feature on YouTube's homepage. Who knows what is to come for these rising stars.
