[arandomguy452]

whoa, that actually sounds pretty good! better than most of the other covers i hear. good job!

[MrImsoglad]

You are doing the world a great service!!!!

[spartandude45]

Its The End For 435 People

[7017418765]

[kj2sexy]

this shit is awsome.

[fede495]

nice your voice :)

[Bastardatore]

Sing this song? Challenge accepted! xD

[TheLiftoffExperement]

This song reminds me of Pandemic 2

[ringwormz]

Well played lad, well played. My tongue would be in a knot half way through!!!

[CJKx255]

iv tried this when i was drunk and it didnt go well i only got two words in the fast

LEONARD BERNSTEIN

[darthvader6200]

the end of the world D:

[kballo321]

listening to this on friday, Oct. 21st, 2011...like a boss

[SupaChard89]

@Lestat14684 Thank you

[NaruHina1117]

Just feel like saying this because a lot of people think that this is actually talking about the world being destroyed or armageddon, it's not! It's talking about the world as we see it everyday. How everything is going to change, how it's not going to be the same. Just get that through your head!

[animatorxpalmer]

Holy shit....You're good

[Georgeyguymanperson]

Who the fuck is Lenny Bruce?

[AbeVegaJr]

@Georgeyguymanperson Lenny Bruce is one of the most groundbreaking comedians in history. He broke boundaries, he was arrested for breaking obscenity laws. He wasn't afraid to speak his mind.

[NeilTheFerret1]

@AbeVegaJr nice to see somebody got the Lenny Bruce thing, respect.

[NaruHina1117]

I'm watching this on December 22nd, 2012! EAT THAT MAYANS AND NOSTRADAMUS!!!!

[TheWarnerSister]

@NaruHina1117 ....You're watching this in the future?

[SupaChard89]

@TheWarnerSister There was a worse time failure comment that I just ignored. He's saying he WILL watch it in 2012. Of course, that's not what this song is about anyway.

[randomguy034]

these lyrics make no sense!

[CanadianPolybius]

@randomguy034

Yesh they do

[Dougolai]

haha this guy does a pretty good job of it.

[SupaChard89]

@Dougolai Thanks

[SupaChard89]

@123luiga THANKS! Sorry for the delay

[Mahnk15]

@SupaChard89 i give you props man, this song is hard to learn and sing xD

[TheAmazing424]

I love the sing-along!

[sevelev711]

Dummy serve your own needs. Don't talk that way about me!

[Charizard632]

This song would represent 2011 in some ways.

[SupaChard89]

@Charizard632 How?

[WishesSailorMoon]

Get your voice out of there!

[zjeansonne]

boooooooooooooooo haha nooo but i really was expecting the actually song, not a cover. u could have at least made the instruments a lil louder tho :P

[SupaChard89]

@zjeansonne Well, I recorded this at my house full of sleeping people at about 1.30am one day and had no control over the levels. The music is just playing off the speakers I had on my laptop.

[zjeansonne]

@SupaChard89 haha ohhhhhhh ok. my bad, its still the best cover of the song tho

[jestka1234567]

very nice



[jestka1234567]

well that great sing there 

[1458]

I love your voice <3 you didn't ruin the song.

[SupaChard89]

@1458 Thanks! It was late at night and I didn't want to wake anyone up.

[Valdiri14]

you should put cover but you sing very well for not a profersional I woulñd sing like crap lol

[CassieCantFly]

Okay you guys are buttholes, I actually Like it. <3 I send my love SupaChard89

[SupaChard89]

@CassieCantFly Thank you! People are all pissy when they "can't find the real version." But it definitely shows up in results before my video does. At least when I search it it does.

[CassieCantFly]

@SupaChard89 the same thing happens to me, I guess they're all just too lazy to use their eyes and want to take it out on someone else. Honestly I like your voice and I like your version a bit better than the original, don't let these haters get in the way, just keep singing!

[SupaChard89]

@CassieCantFly Thank you very much!



[TheRetna1111]

REally, you ouldn't just say "no copywrite intended" 

[SupaChard89]

@TheRetna1111 If anything I would have said "No copyright infringement intended." But, yes, I really did say it the way I did. I like it.

[TheRetna1111]

@SupaChard89 I really don;t like it, honestly. Also sorry, I'm no expert with copywrie and all.

[SupaChard89]

@TheRetna1111 Obviously... I just spelled it for you and you still can't



[Kynrin22]

WARNING:

Beware, song contains epicness.

[diesercyan]

you stupid bastard! i've searched so long on this page to find the 'normal' version, but we know on youtube it's impossible to listen to original songs. and now shut up you motherfucker with your shit voice and upload the original song!!!

[SupaChard89]

@diesercyan First of all, fuck you. Secondly, I can see three videos of the actual song in the related videos section. Third, when you search the song the very first video is the real thing with the real music video. So not only are you a giant cunt, but you're fucking retarded. So I kindly repeat, fuck you.

[RickyMcGinnis]

@SupaChard89 Your video is complete shit.

[SupaChard89]

@RickyMcGinnis Go do better, dickweed.

[CfJr14]

WTH

[ImDramaQn]

WWWWWWWWWWOOOOOOOAAAAHHHH!!!!!­!!! I APPLAUD WHOEVER SANG THIS!!!!!!!! THEY'RE VERY TALENTED WHOEVER SANG THIS :), I WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO SING THIS SONG LOLOLOL XD

[SupaChard89]

@ImDramaQn I am whoever sang it, thank you.

[legendofzeldaalways]

look fishhead mama if you dont believe in the bible thats fine people all have their different views but i am christian so you dont have to state your beliefs in public or write them on youtube so please stop thanks. also ive had a nosebleed lasting about an hour now anyone have some advice.

[SupaChard89]

@legendofzeldaalways If you were paying attention at ALL, you're addressing the guy who DOES live by the bible. Everyone needs to fucking stop talking about this bullshit on my video. It has nothing to do with anything, I completely disagree with its values, and it's pissing me off.

[1595pie]

@legendofzeldaalways add pressure

[ircheth]

why couldn't you post the lyrics without singing to it?

[SupaChard89]

@ircheth Because the whole point of posting it at all was to prove to people that somebody can sing it other than the band. That's why I've done a couple other videos the same way and that's why they're all a part of my playlist entitled "Songs No One Knows the Words To"

[Fishheadmama]

Mr. Camping!!! you apparently missed the part in the

Bible where it CLEARLY STATES THAT WE DON'T ACTUALLY KNOW WHEN THE END OF THE WORLD IS COMING. the bible is very clear on this(see Matthew 24:42).

I suggest you actually read your bible before making an even bigger ass of yourself.

[SupaChard89]

@Fishheadmama I'm gonna go ahead and stop you right there since this is my video. Do not live your life by the bible. It was written by a bunch of old white men hundreds of years after the events were supposed to have occurred. They picked and chose which stories were going into it because they only wanted to make themselves and their religion look good. Secondly, this song isn't about the end of the world as in destruction, it's about society. How about you don't make an ass of yourself now?

[Fishheadmama]

@SupaChard89 , do not tell me how to live my life. if I want to live my life by the bible, I bloody well will and you have no right to tell me otherwise. if you choose an atheist's point of view, that's fine but in the meantime don't knock other people's values. further, everyone(you included)makes an ass of themself from time to time. think about that before you pass judgement on someone you don't even know. 'bye now

[SupaChard89]

@Fishheadmama Then if you have that point of view, you have no right to judge people for not reading the bible, do you?

[EpicBlueSpikes]

@SupaChard89 how about you both shut up and listen to the song?

[SupaChard89]

@EpicBlueSpikes It's my video, I do what I want

[EpicBlueSpikes]

@EpicBlueSpikes please mate, dont start on me, as you can see from my comment thats the last thing i want.

[pcrvg0808]

@EpicBlueSpikes I`m sure he didn`t ``hear`` you .

[hoga97]

respect. the siong is fucking fast,but you sang it without mistakes.

[SteelOnslaught]

gotta love tommy boy.they do what 97% of us do. ha ha.

[alpaugh61]

urrrrrrrggggggggg o.O i cant i get toungue tied

[UmbreonEspeon4EVER]

Hahah the only part I can sing of it is the like the first 10 seconds and then the chorous ahhahaah XD

[kitty2fun]

i tried 4 times and i did it on the last try :D WOOHOO

[girmreaper4]

GOOD JOB, best i've seen

[jrp1234657]

God you sound so damn depressed

[fjfielder]

Thanks Richard for posting this; I have the words printed out and the album with this song on it, and still have trouble following along. Your sing-a-long, and the fact you put only a few words at a time on the screen was very helpful in me FINALLY being able to follow along. I'm not one of those who thought the world was going to end yesterday, but I did find it interesting one of the lines is "six o'clock", when it was supposed to happen. I wonder if those nuts stole that from this song?

[SupaChard89]

@fjfielder Who knows? I wonder why they picked that day at all, never mind a specific time. It was all just bullshit to begin with. Whatever.

[myysguys]

the world is still here bitches

[shawtym0nica]

i had to listen to this song today

because ' the end of the world saturday ' shit i cant take serious (;

[paransan]

Not again, Dr. Who, or the restaurant at the end of the universe-- this "end of the universe has been going on for, well, since the beginning of the universe

[AceTrainerKayden]

That's great, it starts with an earthquake, birds and snakes, an aeroplane -

Chuck Norris is not afraid. lol

[Spelinda]

maybe is easier is english is your first language..

[istartmynamewithq]

ughhh let me break this down for you guys. The world is not going to end in 2012. Why you may ask? Am I just trying to make you guys feel better? No im not. Because the world can end at any moment. Because 2012 was 50 years ago on the miner's calendar so really 2012 was 50 years ago.

[SupaChard89]

@istartmynamewithq No one ever said the world was ending in 2012 in this video or in the comments on it. If you think I posted this song because of 2012, then you're sorely mistaken. It's a famous song. And the reason's in the description. Also, I have no belief in the world ending next year whatsoever. So, calm the fuck down and comment like this on some other end of the world video.

[theblackmansmokey]

@istartmynamewithq

For all we know... We should actually be in the year 3012.

Lol, point is NOONE will EVER know the time or date of when it all ends.

[GFedFan]

@istartmynamewithq What's the miner's calendar?

[karlking1995]

@istartmynamewithq so you could interprate that as if the Nazis won WWII right, well all be fucked

[SupaChard89]

@karlking1995 I think you mean "we'd all have been." But most of us weren't around then anyway.

[karlking1995]

@SupaChard89 yea i did lol

[Mkwgamer9999vr]

@istartmynamewithq someones technical

[daggerman43]

i did sing along actually got the third part to go :D

[529randomguy]

Dis song expreses my feleings about da end of da world 

[Lighttailsxx]

you are on the beat

[Lighttailsxx]

damn you on the right on beat yea!

[eaantonio007]

I feel fine >)

[koolkatkittyman]

Just curious ... how many times did it take you to get it right?

[SupaChard89]

@koolkatkittyman I learned the song by listening to it a couple times, double checked the lyrics, and then could just sing along. I did this video in one take.

[koolkatkittyman]

@SupaChard89 Damn good job then.

[daggerman43]

im trying to memorize it doing good :D

[daggerman43]

Thumbs up if you at least tried to sing along! :D

[kevthfc88]

What about we didn't start the fire? I can do it, can't do this though, not yet anyways.

Bob Dylan subterranean homesick blues is another can't really think of any more though?

[SupaChard89]

@kevthfc88 I don't like Billy Joel

[samus7321]

I believe (if memory serves me right from looking up the lyrics) in the chorus is "Can I have some time alone".

[SupaChard89]

@samus7321 Well, if you found that on the internet, you should be aware that the internet is full of misinformation and general wrong stuff. Those lyrics are incorrect, what I have IS correct.

[reapernator64]

were you reading the lyrics as you sang it? it sounded like it because if you new the song by heart (like me XD) you would now when to take a breath and you wouldn't be falling behind... i heard you gasping to you cant deny that. and to support my theory you were falling behind: this song is really catchy and if you now it youl probably sing it without the song itself either that or you will sing a little ahead. no offense tho

[SupaChard89]

@reapernator64 I was not reading as I sang, however I had only learned it the day before. When I fix my laptop I'm going to record more and re-record this one.

[kitty2fun]

i can sing along :)

[halleluia09]

Nice voice!

[MountainDew1459]

[SupaChard89]

@hel1243 Thanks a lot!

[nrgize100]

wow awesome job getting the lyrics and keeping pace w/them never would have got them all without your help thank you so much!!!

[iluvmypuddycat]

this is a different version than the ones on iTunes.

[SupaChard89]

@iluvmypuddycat I have no idea

[RandomPickle97]

I like this one better than the origanal one, (the one where R.E.M. sings it)

[randomteensx2]

Remember when you could watch a video without having to sitthrough a commercial? Remember When Music Videos Were uploaded by users not VEVO Remember When all the info was to the right of the video? Remember you could rate a video1-5 stars? Remember The famous yellow subscribe button? Remember when the users controlled the site not corporations? WE MISS THE OLD YOUTUBE! Post this in every video and le`s start a youtube revolution Thumbs up to keep this on top!

[fitnessviktorleon]

esta cerca el 2012,  es este fin del mundo?

[SupaChard89]

@fitnessviktorleon NO SPANISH

[turma143]

did anyone else notice he spelled airplane wrong

[SupaChard89]

@turma143 "The term aeroplane (equivalent to "airplane" in U.S. English) typically refers to any powered fixed-wing aircraft."

Ever hear of a synonym? It's not pronounced "airplane," so I spelled it "aeroplane." That's how he actually says it.

[reapernator64]

@SupaChard89 dude areoplane is a band what are you talking about!?!?! thats what they refer to in the song

[SupaChard89]

@reapernator64 AN aeroplane? That sentence grammatically refers to AN airplane. "The term aeroplane (equivalent to "airplane" in U.S. English) typically refers to any powered fixed-wing aircraft."

[555555555666666661]

@turma143 it's areoplane not airplane

listen to how he says the word

[iluvmypuddycat]

@turma143 That's actually the correct name for it. It's also more phonetic.

[kitty2fun]

its hard to sing along!!!

[kitty2fun]

its hard to sing along!!! o.O

[SupaChard89]

@kitty2fun Agreed

[zoidberg96913]

Sounds like someone is chatting with you in facebook...Its either that or im hearing things again....... -_-

[SupaChard89]

@zoidberg96913 I hate facebook chat and don't use it. You're hearing things

[superdirtygirl1]

I know all the words~! :D and you failed at some of them -.- but, good job! :D

[link281615]

is it ok if i cry...because i really wanna

[SassyAngel411]

@link281615 sure.



[NightAndDayOkami]

You have no idea how hyper I was when I was listening to this song. :D

[championgirl001]

thats pretty good. i have to also give u credit cuz i know how fast of a song that is so i can see how someone could get tired and end up losing beat just like i do. hope u do more ill be looking forward.

[Ipunchbeezintheface]

You sound like my neighbor Mac....

Mac is that you?

[SupaChard89]

@Ipunchbeezintheface No, it's me, Richard

[XheartbrokenX200]

Love the song :D ur a good singer, keep going lol

[rose101100]

lol he started getting tired near the end XD

[SupaChard89]

@rose101100 haha yes I did

[Firedude960]

you own <333

[ALLERTORLOVER69]

How are you even possible to understand and type down the lyrics to this song

[SupaChard89]

@ALLERTORLOVER69 It's easy

[T1H0]

well, it's a lower by a full octave, but sounds ok. you should have mentioned in the title that it's you singing over the song

[LoveHitsugaya1]

I learned the Lyrics i can even talk them through without looking and not making any mistakes but as soon as i try to sing it words that dont even exsist start to fly out my mouth ... damn it sucks i really really wanna sing along XD

[HighNortherner]

Good job! (From an 80s kid.)

[HighNortherner]

Good job! (From an 80s kid.)

[ooopmngfg]

asome u got the words right. this song bring back mermiroes form my old town we used tosing this

[RandomPickle97]

I think u maed teh songz bettar w/ ur singings, !

[rose101100]

I AM ALMOST THERE LOL i am doing it section by section

[JRC0br4Phyr]

I found a site where they claim Stripe corrected the lyrics himself.

[killer511100]

that scared the shit out of me

[MrMegaWizard]

Wats REM stand for

[AGirlWoWLover]

i think this is prety good

[322ashstew]

its a freaking song get the fuck over it people its not that big of a deal

[chrismax777]

it doesnt say "regardless of your own needs" in the beginning its "dummy serve your own needs"

[SupaChard89]

@chrismax777 He says that line twice and it's different both times

[paxpaul]

Do you people even LISTEN to the lyrics? First, there's no "Mt. St. Edelite." Second, "mountains sick inner lie" doesn't make any sense.

The lyric is "mountains sit in a line" (following the reference to continental drift--get it?) Listen to live versions. Use your brains and a little common sense.

SupaChard89, stop the "there are multiple versions" nonsense. (And you don't match the lyric in THIS recording, no matter what you say.) You sang the same wrong lyric that others have. No big deal.

[GreyOlsenstep]

soooo COOL man!

:)

[jode3465]

damn it's impossible to memorize these lryics

every god damn song has a singer that takes a break for breath after 5 words

for this song i cannot say the same

[Grandmamaa]

mountains sick inner lie. not mount st edelite

[SupaChard89]

@Grandmamaa There are multiple versions of this song... I'm tired of having this conversation...

[Left4DeadMaker]

@Grandmamaa STFU

[kiabaman4258]

trying to sing this song correctly the first time you ever hear it = EPIC PHAIL

lol

other than that i love this song and i still can't manage to sing the lyrics fast enough to keep up with the song

[adiel12345678]

wow i hardly sing to fast for me awesome man keep it up

[ejdbk]

well,its not michael stipe

but its still amusing :D

[1233Alyy]

This is a good video. But its "Mountains sick inner lie" not the other thing you had put. But still, good video.

[metalxmonsterr]

I FUCKING HATE THIS SONG. BUT I KEEP LISTENING TO IT. IT SHOULD HAVE 1000,0000 VEIWS CAUSE ITS FUNNY. CHICKEN BOCKEN STICKIN CLOCKIN CHICKIN CHOCKIN BIRDY TURDY FIRDY MURDY.........................­..FUCK

[griffithjt]

I think you should just super speed the REM version

[mke15]

hahaha very nice!

tongue twister haha!

[mivoiosi]

i love it,,,i can't get this song right for nothing ,,,but you just went into it so smoothly that is too cool,,,great job,,,,,

[xxxSAMMYBOYxxx]

awsome

[21393krader]

VERY VERY IMPRESSIVE!!!

GOOD JOB!!

i hit the first part and in done.

well done

[Dafancyboy]

I love when Peter Griffin sings it! lol

[OoohsnappKris]

awesome song haha :D

[cloudtail65536]

you made a mistake. it's "mountains sick inner lie.", not the other thing you put there.

[SupaChard89]

@cloudtail65536

First of all, there's a lot of "there" in this song. You need to specify which line you're referring to. Secondly, no matter which line you're referring to, you're wrong. Like someone else pointed out in older comments, there are two versions of the song recorded. My lyrics match the first, original version which is the version that's playing in the background as I'm singing, therefore I made no mistake.

[SupaChard89]

@cloudtail65536

You really need to be more specific than that. I have no idea what part you're talking about. However, there are actually two versions of this song both recorded by REM, so you may be referring to the other version. My lyrics are correct for the version I used.
