The Fray - The Great Beyond (R.E.M. Cover)

[Zuzzi97]

I personally prefer this version

[maritrinamari]

proving which is the better band (hint: it's not The Fray)

[MrFr0h]

=/, not the worst cover ever done, but its too melodious compared to stipe's voice.

[dusk19491]

Stipe's voice is too unique for this to be an excellent cover, it's okay at best

[forcebwitya]

I'm sorry, but this is not a good cover. Almost the exact same song, but the vocals just don't compare. Michael Stipe rules!

[stargazntreki]

I love the Fray, and it's not bad, but I still prefer the original. :) No offense I'm a huge Fray fan.

[nicholsjoshua15]

where are these guys from?

[westonlad2010]

this is the song for 2012 if it happens????

[MolverProductions]

great cover but r.e.m. owns all!

[heymissdeejay]

Wow, that was very good, I like more the REM original, but this is very good, though!!

[nickomarshall88]

top cover, they should release it :)

[jipsqueeny]

this is a cover that shows great respect its excellent....great band

[EmoGirlGoesCrazy]

omg this is amazing <3

[constantvariable2342]

:O

sooooo wicked good.

gah. this is just so much win right here.

[AlexSlade21]

I think this is one of The Fray's best covers. It makes me almost come to tears it's so amazing. *wipes away water from eyes*

[Ubootat]

i love the fray but i love REM more i respect that the fray did this cover but its never going to be like REM

[Jedimindtrip]

Reminds me of what Ryan Adams did with Wonderwall. Made great song even a little better.

No offense REM.

[jipsqueeny]

you cant make an original better....you can put your own spin on it and make it sound different.....but you cant improve on perfection...sorry cant be done

[samaslama55]

@jipsqueeny umm may i point you to justin beiber?? any 1 can make his songs better :) lol R.E.M ftw

[Syrus2006]

My god this is actually all right. Most REM covers I've heard are total lol.

[RockstarGirl88]

I just got done listening to their cover 'have you ever seen the rain' I was gonna click on this song...and then the chorus came up...it just seemed like a crime to change it.

RESPECT!

[xhazelxthexnazelx]

Hahahahahaha

NobGoblin XD

[Ebonykiss5]

This version made me almost want to cry. in a good way.

it's a beautiful song.

I love REM, and they Fray, are alright but, now i think the fray are great :D

[yuvalandspeed]

Also you wont belive this:

i have this friend who loves the fray (i love R.EM) so i decided to show him "the great beyond" song in hope that he likes it because it's kida simillar music style. we search the song on youtube and we found the cover!!!!!

[yuvalandspeed]

R.E.M Is One of the greatest bands, i love them!

"the great beyond" and "loosing my religion" and "man on the moon" are the best!!

however this cover is almost as good as the original song and i really like how the singer pronounces "i'm breaking thrugh" in 2:07

[RockstarGirl88]

his name is Isaac....:-|

[sneakypower]

Brilliant, and I am a critical REM fan!

[gpeddino]

No one can touch REM's original, but I think this is a quite decent cover.

[OsportfreakO]

shit version compared to R.E.M

[WickedMaureenJohnson]

I mean no one can compete with the original but this is GREAT. Brilliant cover :D

[08ciana]

@WickedMaureenJohnson I agree. They did justice to the song.

[jrl9359]

Can you make this an MP3 download please?

[NobGoblin1]

Sorry i cant, I got it off Frostwire

[thomasstout25]

@jrl9359 I can

[sale7100]

@jrl9359 Google

From youtube to Mp3

first one, copy the link from here and thats it:)

[OneRepublicLover125]

Wow... this song is so awesome... I can't believe I've never heard this cover before! And I've heard them ALL by these guys! Well, aparently not, lol. This song is awesome... I know think they should totally release this somehow... I would listen to anything Isaac sings... his voice is just power... awesome video! :)

[NobGoblin1]

Its Off The You Found Me EP

i think its way better than the Original

Have you heard the Songs From Movement EP, if not i dont mind uploading them :D

[OneRepublicLover125]

Yea, but I;m from America, and they don't have the You Found Me EP... they don't have any of their EPs on iTunes... and that's a shame... I wish there was a way I could get this, though. OH! That would be so awesome if you could, lol! Actually, I've only heard one, and that's It's for You.. I couldn't find the rest anywhere... but that's awesome if you could! THANKS! :)

[NobGoblin1]

I shall upload it now =D

Did they rerealese Reason EP in america?

[OneRepublicLover125]

Yep, they did that one. I love it. People say it's not their best but I love hearing some of their older stuff. Oceans, Together, Unsaid, and Some Trust are my favorites. And thanks, again for the uploading and everything. YouTube rocks, lol. ;D

[NobGoblin1]

Their Older Stuff does indeed Rule

Movement EP is the hardest thing to get ahold of........it took forever lol

I like uploaing the Old/Rare stuff coz its no where else on youtube at all!! lol

[OneRepublicLover125]

Yes, it does INDEED rule, lol. And, tell me about it! I couldn't find things off their Movement EP on here. But, this song is really awesome (totally better than the original). :) They should consider releasing it here in America... *scoffs* America... even the iTunes store does a bad job of providing the best quality of anyything, lol...
