Losing My Religion Hootie and the Blowfish

[Maxxxshop]

Damn brilliant! Sounds as if the song was written for him.

[leedscab123]

Brill version of my favourire song ever.

[NYcgrguy]

Daruius and Hootie out-REMed REM!!!

[mttdckrsn]

He sooooo nailed this song! EPIC WIN!

[Vamphaery]

Darius Rucker = Eclecticism.

[omnivoreguy]

Hootie started out as an REM cover band. Not joking.

[paultgt89]

he did a great jod on this song

[robramos1969]

Beautiful rendition of this timeless song.

[nigellax]

i love this because of how Michael Stipe is referenced in Let Her Cry. Just makes me happy :P

[sensovie]

one great song

[MrBuc128]

This is a very good cover

[DarthShuvit]

I saw them a few years ago and they had Peter Buck there playing mandolin for them!!

[lnovaes]

Great Band! Great song!

[SaoirseRanekaera]

..... I thought this song was done by R.E.M.??? Or did hootie re-do it?

I liked the rem version better.... no offense to hootie, they were my fave when I was a kid

[70Fissy]

i love this cover he did a great job

[rainbow2251]

hooootiiieeeee

[coolbeans465]

darius is the man he's one of the most versatile artist out there!!!

[lantz1992]

Awesome! His voice is so powerful!

[lvlatka]

ARE THESE GUYS FOR REAL...DARIUS IS THEE KING

[meandnotyou29]

Damn, Darius's got SOUL.

[noteventhetrees]

Great quality video!! I heard the REM version on the radio recently and it made me want to hear Darius sing it. Thanks! :)

[shiver310]

this is the kind of cover that can only be caputred with a live recording... damn...

[pilotlicense]

@shiver310 Actually, I wish they'd record it in a studio.

[hemisphere24]

Now this is how you cover a song!

[MUCKSTICKYIZZY]

its creepy that everyone feels tha same never would of throught of it till i heard it an yes great cover

[mjhanny21]

What an amazing voice

[trantola]

awesome cover of an awesome original

[darklayer101]

Awesome cover!! I love them :)

[FalconM109]

Awesome cover! Darius Rucker, Chad Kroeger, and Scott (Anthony Flippen) Stapp are masters of their craft

[natinhak]

I liked it

[fsctrichi]

I was there! They're pretty bad ass

[lanceroe]

wtf happened to hootie and the blowfish. tucker's town was awesome. i don't wanna put shitkickers on to listen to hoatbf.

[Moongoose86]

rem is great but this is still a good cover

[ShredWithMe]

my 9th grade science teacher was his Aunt

[stevets01]

It's because it's the only ones the record companies don't remove...

[sanekk]

just cuz

[RighteousMoses]

Record companies don't remove them from youtube, and some people who were at the concert enjoy reminiscing. ;]

No one's forcing you to watch them.

[devonbeynon]

Not bad - the original is still better in my opinion though.

[yayoi1]

Which is worth nothing, and explains why you're posting and they're playing!

[thebreakinghands]

Yayoi, 4 people so far have given you a thumbs dumb. Looks like your comment was not too popular, ya jackass

[sandih65]

from another girl down under PLEASE come down here .. l would give anthing to see them ( especially Darius ) live... they are all among the greatest ever

[uscdave1124]

Holy shit people in Australia like Hootie? I'm moving there because, here at least, admitting I like HBF usually results in me being made fun of.

I even went to the same university, served Darius beer once, and I have seen them live probably a dozen times at least.

HBF is great, fuck the haters.

[sfk324]

Darius is doing solo work right now. I hope they do a tour again soon, too. But this summer I know he's opening for Rascal Flatts on their tour.

[musicking251984]

That was a great performance. Right on

[keemer08]

sorry michael stripe.

[scgmecoxsux]

Darius Rucker sings this song better than Michael Stipe could ever imagine. Gamecocks suck!! C.J. Spiller is coming back muddafuccas!!!

[XxIronSpiderxX]

Technically, he might be slightly better, but Michael pours his soul into it. He's like the lead singer of Counting Crows, cares less about what his music sounds like, more what it feels like.

[Apollokid4]

this is actually very very good....i like it alot

[BooNube]

Man, Darius nailed that one.

[uglydermis]

wel darius rucker is not michael stipe for my personal opinion de best REM s cover who i heard .

[dantezevallos]

cause there s nothing i can do

only i wanna be with u!! XD

[Joyster2212]

Cool xD

[FabulousSweetiepie]

The best voice in america.... from a girl downunder......

[krogshede]

I never realy liked Hootie & The Blowfish,- so I think its good they stopped..

I wont miss them at all.

[eemorn]

They sound great.

[BadMediCynInc22]

we need more bands like hootie and the blowfish, never knew they covered this! I miss hootie (an d the blowfish!)

[babysgotagun]

checkout Tritone blues comment lol.

[sweetfb1983]

That is so weird.. I saw them yesterday in concert and Darius was wearing the exact same close and hat..lol...

[Thecalhounster]

i saw em last night live they also did a fantastic cover of oasis supernova, and a led zep cover turned out alot better than i thought, but they did this rem cover too, which like DG and Teen mentioned if it werent for REM there would be no hootie

[olderwiserdrunker]

omfg, I dint think it possible...someone beside Michael doing this..nice job; well, maybe Natalie could do it...still prefer the orig.

[lskynyrd1293]

Any cover song you throw at them, they do amazing like fine line off the scattered smothered covered album. What a great band overall

[smurftomte]

This cover isn't half bad...though i'd prefer R.E.M over this

[kkrahling]

see/hear this live and you will change your minds, excellent cover

[niraj304]

this is crap

[OverConfidentDunces]

you're crap

[careLOVZya1223]

holy shit, is that at rock fore dough? i was so there..

[notthyfriend]

Dude I just about wet myself when I saw this - My all-time favorite band covering one of my all-time favorite songs. Awesome.

[Adameeriu]

why are they singing this song? they have better songs...

[teen803]

they started as a REM cover band... a bit of trivia for you

[DGerichten]

they started as a REM cover band

[subliem7467]

this isnt bad quality for a camera phone.

[yanetzin]

wow you sound amzing in thi ssong!! I wonder what you think of my version!

Wow you guys make it so alive!! really very nice!

[sjzimm23]

wow thats weird i have a pick from mark too he gave one to my sister after a gig at the resteraunt she worked at. Does yours have a printed signature on the back and is it orange?

[yousoundbitter]

Eveyone except me and another girl a few rows back were sitting down. I was rewarded for my standing and clapping when Mark threw me a pick! It was a great show by the band. And it wasn't a free show, if you wanted good seats.

[punkymunkey06]

I just saw them perform this at a free benefit concert on Saturday. They're absolutely amazing and so is this video, by the by

[tujour]

Do they have a new album. Must of been great to see. Way up here in Canada. Still love Hootie. Any info?

[matt90108]

This video is awesome as I stated before. This Strawberry Fest. show was great. Well, Darius did it again.....last night at Celebration, Florida, when he did this cover song the crowd went crazy. He just gets better and better. Darius should record this. Darius rocks.

[frawleyinthehizzle]

the crowd doesnt seem to be into it durringit

[jomeena]

i dont know what people expect for nothing but that looked and sounded fine.well done getting this pine

[proffromgview]

You're right. It's worth exactly what I paid....NOTHING. Crap recording of a great group.

[elletsco]

wish i'd have kept up with mark and dean as they went to college. played with mark at school. nobody deserves success more than he. hard working and classy... remember seneca valley high school mark.

[ReeseMac]

and they didn't try to make any radical crazy changes to the song. they just played it.

[maddsis]

Hootie dedicates this every concert he performs it to the originators of the song R.E.M. and states they are the reason this band formed. He ALWAYS gives credit accordingly! Hootie kicks ass!! and so does your video!

[marcg209]

Damn this is a camera phone recording sound aight.

[mkline718]

Did the person that posted this claim to be some great talent or the next great director? They took some video of the band and posted it so that other fans can enjoy it. Why are you so angry?

[proffromgview]

Angry? No. Tired of people ruining good music with ridiculous recording devices, then posting it for all the world to see their ignorance. If your recording medium is crap, the music ends up like crap. It's simple.

[mikeyboy1]

Your right! He should be a director and you should be an english major ;)

[BigBoiJC]

the sound quality is pretty darn good and the video isn't half bad. i have no clue what you're whining about.

[violator79]

Darius Rucker has a great voice! Awesome cover of this classic song.

[strangelitlgrl]

I think so, too. It doesn't seem to stray too much from the original in the way that's it's not "innovative" or anything, but I still really like it.

[Tsippi]

He sounds a little like Michael Stipe.

[dukeofmook]

Man, hootie's fuckin awesome!

[otownjbird]

I was at this show also, and I remember darius dedicating this song to r.e.m. whom he said if it wasn't for they (Hootie) would have never become a band!

[imdwalrus]

It was REM. This is a cover.

[wavpunch]

What A Great Cover!!

[yousoundbitter]

Awesome, I was there, 3rd row, looks like the same section as you!

[BigCFdc]

i love these guys, theyre underrated

[stairsm]

This is the best version of loosing my religion that I ever heard.

[thenewageriseth]

Nope. Ain't got nothing on REM. fo sho

[thenewageriseth]

O_O what? a version of REM's song?

[Wally8406]

I just saw these guys for the makeup show in NH. They were awesome. They did this song for that show and I couldn't believe how well they performed it. Thanks for posting this. - Seriously people, check out their music before you judge them.

[insanedudephil]

i heard you get high on meth then queer your dad off

[hert4]

jackass

[MrSunshinehead]

this is an amazing cover.darius also has a very very good voice

[dukeman4]

This version is waaaaaaaaaay better. Darius can really sing. Great job.

[hovey19]

i saw this show too! planned my vacation around their appearance in Florida so I could watch them and spring training. Hootie rules and as someone said earlier get no where near the credit they deserve. If you haven't seen them live and you like music do yourself a favor and see them!

[schoolsterz123]

I agree....you need to see them in person. They are so much fun. I go to lots of concerts, but always have so much FUN at Hootie & the Blowfish. People should give them more respect and attention, they are unique. It you haven't heard their CD "Looking for Lucky" you might want to give it a listen!

[Bogeyjohnson]

What show is this? Is it Norfolk?

[schoolsterz123]

This is from a show in Plant City Florida. Awesome!

[schoolsterz123]

Thanks for posting this.....I was at this show and I love when Darius does this REM song. (Dare I say I like his version better!) He does not get the recognition he deserves; he has an amazing voice and he's easy on the eyes too! Can't get enough of Darius!

[iamdede]

yeah darius miles. and the dude can dunk like crazy!

[13Mo2]

Great cover of this REM song! Man I wish they would come to Vancouver again!

[genesisofpain]

man now these guys are old schoolin. It's been DAMN long time since I've heard of these guys.

[888mayumi888]

i love this band, awesome, thanks for posting this.

[joeandrocky]

this band is crap crap crap

[JereRowe]

you may not like them but to say that they are crap only shows your lack of music appreciation

[fathead3381]

wow joe what in depth reasoning. you are an idiot. They are a pop/rock band, that writes catchy tunes and put on a good live song. And cover a good REM song, if u dont like them fine....but just blasting them by calling them crap shows your lack of intelligence.

[rimofab]

agreed seje

[MRMATTX2]

great job with a classic song, DR is such a talent the man could sing anything and it would sound awesome.

[loudoggiedogg]

Thanx SOOO much for posting this! =0)

(and thx, trev, for clearing that up for the ppl who didn't already know that...good chit)

[betonico]

the best one

[trevthesparky]

on a critical note to mariesgold his name is darius rucker theres no one in the band called hootie but WHAT A GREAT COVER by one of the best bands around

[mariesgold]

Hootie is still sexy and can sing any cover tune like it he owns IT!! Love you Hootie!!

[njstock]

what a superb version

GO HOOTIE

[lara327]

i love this band

[SuperSoupy]

yeeeaaaaaa. great!
