Amazing, I can’t believe how there are people in this world who have the incredible talent and ear for music that they can take an amazing song and turn it into something that is painful to listen too. EPIC FAIL
Why not watch our rockier full band cover of this song at /watch?v=ACDxDhOOokg you can also download the song for free if you like it (: Can't say fairer than that!
everyone keeps putting these lyrics ' somebody i used to know(8)' on their facebook status, so it brought me here, and WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS SHIT... :/ This isnt music.
This is Gotye's song! It's called the Faux pas remix for a reason. Faux pas "is a violation of accepted social norms" according to wikipedia. He's done this on purpose people.
Definitely really good as a stand-alone remix. When compared to the original, obviously it's extremely different. This is more so based on sampling than actually covering the song. Come on, guys. Gotye posted it here for a reason.
I dig it but I was a bit more "breaky" than I normally like. That cushioned bass is nice, but I could've been happier with a bit more straight 4X4... but don't listen to me keep doing good stuff. More + than - for sure. thumbs up.
Damn. I thought after the first bit some very loud, almost dubstep WAH WAH WEEEEEEE WEEEEEE WEEERBFERJBGFJERIBF would happen. xD This is a quite chilled remix.
I guess everyone likes the original too much, if it was on 60000 views not 11 million maybe they'd welcome this more. But now everyone has the mindset of 'nothing beats the original'. I think it's ok..
mmmm sorry mate. Not digging it. There are some great remixes of this song around but this one doesn't really work. But there were bits of it I liked - especially in the last minute or so and the "someba" bit sounds great - like African or something LOL. It's like you almost did it well but missed it somehow. Just my opinion. Gotye liked it LOL so what would I know. :)
@iamfauxpas The original has just become such a big hit that everyone is being precious about it. It doesn't matter how good of a remix it is, people are still going to have a cry about it. Don't be disheartened by narrow minded people.
Have to agree with the majority on this. I usually enjoy minimal and electro remixes, but this is just a bad disjointed parody. A good remix IMO is one that can emulate the mood of the original song but work in an alternate perspective. This is just a trainwreck of clips and it shows off a frail understanding of rhythms and melodies.
@JackoPlane lol the stupidest complaint some one can make about a remix is to say it's not "the same" in some way. It's not suppose to feel or sound the same or whatever, if it did, what would even be the point of remixing it?
I like it, it's just a cool song that features samples from another cool song.
wow this sucks!
