O.A.R. The Downeaster Alexa

[wiihaward94]

It baffles me how he told them what he was playing about two seconds before the idiots asked "what is he playing" - Some people...

[TheBellanj]

East coast band west coast audience. Most ppl in CO never heard of billy joel.

[whitelabrat]

@TheBellanj Hey every part of the country has uncultured boobs. Do not even suggest people in Colorado don't know who Billy Joel is. =) Good cover. I love it.

[joshuabrooks21]

Yi Yi Yi Oh, Yi Yi Yi Yi Oh, Yi Yi Yiiiiiii Oh indeed....

[joshuabrooks21]

Great cover, bad audience. F**kin' drunk idiots...

[reynola68]

this is an unbelievable cover, his voice is perfect for this. love it. you can download this whole concert for free at liveoar.com

[DrewFaron]

I wish the dumbass stupid F*^cks in the background would shut the F*^ck up. They ruined the audio.

[manfredlaan]

you do realize they are listening to a concert? If everybody would shut up the band would think they did something wrong. It's irritating for the vid, but hey.... put the camera somwhere else!

Besides, you still can hear the band. In some vids the crowd is so loud you can't......

And for the band....: well done!

[DrewFaron]

There's a difference between singing along with the song and endless yelling about who's going to get the next round of beers.

[Mystery69]

disrespectful punks talking and giggling ruins this otherwise great cover. I'm surprised OAR was able to pull this off honestly

[Durden271]

Great band. Do a good job of covering songs other bands would never dare. Check out there Fool In The Rain cover.

[panterastang]

good cover, could do without the dick heads near the camera talking

[bouf]

@panterastang yeah seriously, they completely ruin this video. Great song though, one of my favorites by Billy Joel, and done well by OAR

[producer111]

It's a good try, but they sure as hell aren't Billy Joel.

[hcpunkloser]

They did a really good job with this song. Not many bands would try and pull this off and end up doing it well.

[t4b5klh]

weak, check the billy version in related vids

[tmusic33]

I was 3rd row at this concert, by far one of my favorite red rocks shows! and this song was amazing when they played it.

[XxDirtyXxXSanchezxX]

Billy Joel > Rest.

[ny13isles39]

can't be recreated...has to be played by Billy Joel

[jlaz89]

Agreed. This is a good try, but just can't be covered.

[janustismith]

wow. my favorite band playing my favorite artist.

[gotcork112]

the guy below me is a fag stop disrespecting

[Guinness133]

Who are the retards that said "what the hell are they playing?"

It's Billy Joel for crying out loud....get a little culture would ya?

Cheers

[jlaz89]

Not only that, but before they started, O.A.R, said "This one's a Billy Joel song called "the Downeaster 'Alexa'"...idiots.

[jhudson54]

ahh i was fifth row, god it was amazing. damn amazing

[sethheadrick]

great show...i was sitting up behind you! this show made my first visit to CO so great!!

[Ehrabe]

I watch this and other videos of this show and get sad cause i had three tickets to the show but couldn't make it from wyoming. But at least I have some good footage to see what i've missed thanks.

[IF079]

They played this at Jones Beach, much more fitting than playing it anywhere else really. Awesome song, and they do it justice. It was awesome at Jones, because a good number of those who turned out to the show knew the words.

[gitfidler31]

I was so stoked when they played this at that concert! What a show. Thanks for posting!
