Don't get me wrong I like Brand New but this isn't the best cover, but it's kind of hard to even come close to sound as amazing as Doug Marsh and BTS....
lol fucking cry moar! who cares if its better or worse, either you dig it or you dont. and bands dont cover other ppls music to try and out-do or improve it. they do it because they enjoy that song and want to be a part of it, show respect for it, and share that music with those who may not have heard it other wise. so cheer up and quit arguing guys, its a forlorn hope anyway :P
was a brand new fan when i was a teenager. i listening to them last months and see the music they play gets more mature and nice, not like the other bands of this scene/time who degenerates in a fashionstatement/mtvcommercialproduct. i am now a fan of built to spill and glad to see a cover from brand new. where this cover is released?
@hpsfl 1....Have you actually listened to brand new?
2. Sometimes truly talented, brilliant artists can make songs that the general public can like. ( though the general public will most likely appreciate it for petty reasons)
3. calling someone a "hipster" or anything of the sort is proving your own "hipster"-ness. You just want to be the coolest, and if anyone likes music you found first, they must be posers.

i can't find this song, it's not on the albums of Brand new. @sorenkierkegaard2008: think it's a pity they're not christian. would be cool to find a christian band like this. @ JimmyNoodles What do you mean?
yes, there was an interview about it, i don't feel like looking it up but i remember it on youtube. if you listen to a lot of songs you can see that he has kind of lost faith actually.
I don't think people should argue about this so much. I love Built to Spill, and Brand New is starting to grow on me. The thing is they're both 2 different planes of music, and it's so easy to like one version and not the other. People that like either of these bands seem to love their respective versions of it
How exactly do Brand New suck? Even if you don't like the genre, Jesse Lacey is still one of the best lyricists of this era or any era for that matter.
You may think so. It's just simply a matter of opinion. I personally disagree. And they suck because I say so. I think they suck, so therefore they do. In my opinion.
I see you're very adept at adult conversation. You should probably back opinions up with some form of logic if you're going to respond in the first place.
All I said was that I didn't like it, lol. That's what the comment feature is for, right? To post your opinion about the video. All I said was that I didn't like Brand New, lol. Just because I don't like the same music you do, you decide you hate me? That's amusing.....
@TheeVeryFirst missbritface can say whatever the hell she wants. Take your censorship and shove it. It's you who needs to change, because many times in life people will have beliefs that conflict with your own. Just deal with it.
I hate people like you, and I sincerely hope you get into an automobile accident that renders you paralyzed and on life support. Over sensitive prick.
@drjones087 Uh...it's only the biggest honor you can do for the original band who's song you're covering. Anything else is a failed attempt or underachievement. Case and point: Deftones with LS' "Simple Man," and At the Drive In with The Smiths' "This Night Has Opened My Eyes." I love Brand New, and you should be honest with people you love, right? Well I'm going to do just that and say this was kinda weak. No matter, though. They have written plenty of incredible songs. That's more important.
@drjones087 Again...that's true only if you're not very passionate about the song you're covering. Type in "Espgaluda piano" in the You Tube search engine to witness a very talented guy outdo the videogame composer in his arrangement. (first video in the results). It IS as possible as it is preferable, and it gets the most admiration from fans. Why would you do a cover in the first place if you had no intention of doing the song justice and making it your own at the same time?
"Why would you do a cover in the first place if you had no intention of doing the song justice and making it your own at the same time?" I agree with that bit 100%, but putting you're own mark on it doesn't mean you're trying to one up the original artist. Anyone does a cover to try to one up the original artist is a dick.
@drjones087 That is one of the silliest things I've ever heard. We are not talking like they're improving it out of spite or to prove they are worth more or something. They do it because they love the original so much that they feel it is deserving of an even greater rendition. You might as well call David Fincher a cunt for re-making Fight Club on a much larger scale than the novel. Even Mr. Palahniuk himself said he was a bit ashamed of his book after seeing it. I mean seriously, man.
@drjones087 Aaaand how is that a bad thing? What would you say if I told you MLK was in a minority in his fight for equality? What about the few intelligent men who were courageous enough to stand up when they believed the earth was round, before the flat earth believers burned them at the stake for their "ignorance"? Would you say, "Oh that's completely different. You're nothing like them."?
Thanks to people like you and your ancestors, history is doomed to repeat itself indefinitely. Later.
@drjones087 You have a stupid response for everything, don't you? What would your mother think?
Yeah, keep losing the "YouTube battle," numb nuts. I'll keep fighting. I can tell by just a passive glance at your comments that you are a typical dense, narrow minded liberal American who hates to forfeit his own arrogant world views in exchange of better ones. In other words, you're allergic to learning. I hope you never take a debate class in college. Kids would wipe the floor with you. lol.

No I don't, I just like music. Cheers!
