  • @SettingTheSunriseDFW His cover, he can do what he wants. Why are MGMT fans so bossy? holy shit every cover I've watched I've seen people yelling and bitching and being like DON'T DO THAT MEEHHH MGMT HATES YOU WAHHH DON'T DARE MAKE IT SOUND DIFFERENT ITS PERFECT THE WAY IT FUCKING ISSSSSS AND I WILL EAT YOUR BABIES

  • @JacolynOWNS The cover sounds fine. Changing words is ignorant. lol

  • u made that sound like John Mayer. I dont think I could be any more insulting than that

  • @liamscokedealer John Mayer is actually one of the greatest guitarists of our generation.

  • @liamscokedealer Why because John Mayer has some of the most raw and pure talent in hollywood today? I bet you've never even seen the man live. He is a true damn musician, in every sense of the word. I have never been so awestruck as when I saw him perform.

  • good shit bro, keep it up, no pun intended lol

  • I think you got the lyrics a little wrong

  • Hey Masonvv, really like your cover,very unique!TUTORIAL man,please :) 

  • this sounds nothing like time to pretend, but still awesome

  • AMAZING VOCIE!!!!!! what are the cords and strumming patter you used???

  • awesome guitar playing!

  • this would be better if you were a few years older...

  • Nice one man. I`ve been out of touch with the world for a while and I just discovered this song last week. Love your cover man!

  • love the shades btw

  • Awesome.

  • Very good cover...love he fills in the guitar

  • its kinda like in the movie Big Daddy, when sonny puts on his sunglasses, he feels invisible. So maybe this guy feels invisible, and more secure in singing without the audience seeing his eyes.

  • @heyitsmatt818 BECAUSE IT'S COOL

  • please will you do an MP3?

  • nice cover and great cover! but the shades, they do nothing.

  • @heyitsmatt818 style look it up.

  • ahh I've just seen the tutorial, I've subscribed :D

  • If you gimme the tab for this I will honestly subscribe, I love it!

  • Cool. I don't see many blind musicians these days.

  • nice cover, but why are you wearing 3-d glasses

  • I like it. <3!

  • The cover was great, but you gotta loose the shades man.

  • It was inspired by their pet preying mantis

  • I like your version. It reminded me a lot of the actual song. Time to Pretend was inspired by their iguana or lizard. I forget which.

  • Now this is bad ass

  • judging by the video alone, i was just rickrolled.

  • you're getting quite a lot of wedding proposals haha. but seriously, this was really good!

  • mason vanvalin, hope your doing well man. i still watch this vid all the time. seriously genius guitar riff.

  • your sick

  • u dont play in service my friend ! very latino

  • This is my favorite cover of Time to Pretend. How can I download it?

  • woah this sounds so cool!!! :D

  • you kick ass. do you know how kickass you are?

    thanks so much for this legend recording, and i'll let you know if i ever stop hitting replay.

  • This is a beautiful performance. I loved it. Thank you.

  • why are you wearing sun glasses

  • My GAWWD! OMFG! Can I marry you? no seriously this is like my favorite song ever and this was amazingly done!

  • this.

    is.

    super.

    good. i wanna be friends with you.

  • i have that shirt! west 49 ftw.

  • This is so incredibly amazing. I think you have a very unique voice and style and it gives me chills :) in a good way of course.

  • lol marry me? :]

  • Refreshing cover man, well done.

  • Jesus that sounds good

  • It's great!!

  • I dont even remember what i wrote.  Please paraphrase it for me.

  • @SvenUnplugged you wrote that mgmt wrote on their site that they fucked it up. i tried looking for it on their site but i couldn't. is it in the faq part?

  • @ Onlysean. Don't compare him to the Jonas bros. Most people trying to get places with music don't want to be the next (insert name here) they want to be the first of themselves. And Jonas bros?!? Really at least compliment the guy!

  • nice glasses

  • You´re amazing. I love your voice.

  • that was amazing man!! hell im learnin that song you inspired me, great job

  • nice man. this is totally awesome.

  • mrtiker123 u need to get a life this is so not lame ur just a hater

  • omg i love this cover sooo much

  • awesome dude!! congrats for this original cover!!

    will see if I took some months to learn it from the tutorial jaja ... not easy to sing and play the guitar at the same time with that strange partern you do... you can do something similar as johny mayer does!! keep it up bro!! =)

  • lame

  • holy fuck. you're amazing.

  • I love your version...a lot. You're very talented :)

  • sounds like a john mayer-ish cover. Good.

  • you've got a hint of a poppy boy band kind of nick jonas type voice too only its actually madd good. which is soo sick dude. you've got the whole shabang

  • aww you have a great voice :]

    I normally hate MGMT covers, but this was really good

  • great cover..i love it!

  • absolutely beautiful

  • MGMT doesn't say time of my life.

    It's in the prime of my life.

  • ok dude.

    i am so sick of people saying that.

    who gives a fuck?

    how about you appreciate the music instead of nitpicking the most irrelevant part of this musical piece.

    i mean DEAR GOD.

    the difference between those two words is a SINGLE LETTER.

    if you want to be usefull go talk to the government about their failures. theres THOUSANDS im sure they would LOVE to hear your input

  • bro love it dude. i usually hate youtube cover artists but god damn good job

  • hahahahahahahha. agreed dude. this is really good man, best one ive seen so far! i have a cover i did on "kids" id really appreciate if you could check it out. thanks bro. one love

  • @Masonvv Whoa take it easy. Government? Failures? Thousands? Musical piece? God?.....Correct response would have been thanks, your right, or simply nothing. The cover though, sort of lost the edge the original had, kind of john mayer esque, or that bieber kid.

  • you obviously don't understand.

    please don't compare me to Justin Bieber

  • @Masonvv Who would you most like to be compared with?

  • i really like john mayer.

    so thanks for that part of the comment.

    hahah

  • @Masonvv 2 letters...

    good cover though, ill guitar skills, your a boss

  • MGMT fucked up, says so on their site...

  • @svenunplugged...where does it say that on their site? i'm curious.

  • great cover bro 4.5/5

  • amazingg!

  • such an awesomeeeee cover!! I really think you should re-do an hd version of this song. then put a copy on iTunes and I'll be the first to buy it!

  • really good.

  • i listen to this at least once a day- thanks for playing beautiful music.

  • thanks for listening!

  • Sick! I absolutely love this!
