  • this is the only good cover ive ever seen!!! youre an amazing artist. and to top it off youre freaking gorgeous!

  • look guys. The bottom line is that it takes a lot of guts to put yourself out on youtube. Especially when people with a lot of talent still get shithead comments from fatties living in their mom's basement. You just can't win.

  • realllllllllly love this! 

  • I love this rendition.

  • oh my gosh! thats REALLY good. wicked pretty, & i love your song choice.

  • i like the almost kurt cobain feel to the way u played it. :) great voice too. :)

  • SO GOOD Kelsey : D

  • im in love

  • SUBLIME

  • you're too beautiful

    nice voice!

  • Hey Kelsey, I love your cover of this song and I've been trying to find tabs for it everywhere, but they all sound a bit off (or maybe it's my hearing). Could you tell me the chord progression and if you use a capo? Would be SO appreciated :) Keep playing!

  • great cover.. something different !

  • Wow, this is soooo good.

  • well, aren't you pretty!

  • i'm very impressed with your musical taste, in all of your covers. this is easily one of my favorite shins songs, and you pulled it off flawlessly. you should do turn a square or something of the sort, that would be just as fantastic, I'm sure!

  • perfect song. perfect rendition. perfect voice. well played, my friend.

  • possibly my favorite shins song

  • seems kinda hard to play this song so well and sing at the same time but u sound like ur t-pain'n it up... still very good though

  • you are actually like the best singer i've ever heard. it sounds so original, and your tremble is so cute. just wanted to let you know. :)

  • Good job, but cheer up dude.

  • Most of the covers you do, in my opinion, end up much better than the originals that I look up. Maybe I'm just biased... 8D

  • I love the shins, but holy hell, I love this so much more. it's always seemed like a song a girl should sing to me. xD kudoss.

  • this is amazing it is way better then the shins

  • i would have never thought someone could cover this.

    but you proved me wrong.  :)

  • hmm... im thinking i like this more than when the pilgrims sing it :)

  • love your hair, and of course, your singing =)

  • You don't need makeup. Your gorgeous without it.

  • dude....ive heard this like 123412345 times and cant get over it!!!

    all of your covers and originals are amazing <3

  • not bad not bad.

  • i have watched all of your covers, but for some reason i still think this one is my all-time fave!

    <3 youre so talented!!

  • you my dear, are amazing.

    i wouldn't mind your voice.

  • i love your shirt, and you did an amazing job with this song, its amazing :)

  • best cover ever, of all time

  • all of your videos are amazing! but this one and Boats and Birds are definitely my favourites :)

  • love the curls...and sweet voice...love the sped up to add a little flavor.

  • Absolutely one of the best covers on YouTube. Love your voice! Keep up the awesomeness.

  • i'm amased.. You're so awesome!

    and btw I think I just fell in love with "this raw product" :]

    keep up the work! <3

  • you rock the whole freakin' world !

    ××

  • would you get mad if a god eat you lap top? cuz if you sit there you would lol i had to go buy a new one today cuz my old one came out the wrong end of my dog lol i love how you had your own little boom to your song

    Your FanBoy Malomo

  • Ease on the vibrato girl, you have a gentle voice don't overdo it ;] - Try to use the voice vibrato on random places where the song lacks color. Else splendid

  • So glad my husband has a Young Pilgrims cover and your cover came up as a related video. You're songs... covers and originals and truely enjoyable. Everything about you is beautiful and you're only 16. You've got so much ahead of you. Good luck in everything... take everything as it comes and learn from it (and write us songs about it).

  • I think I like this version better then The Shins Version, Even though I am obsessed with The Shins....

  • So hella good!

  • Good reading.

  • LOL, I like your enthusiasm

  • @HeyKelsey don't worry, i'll eat that puke rght up so you don't get distracted from playing.

  • @ollyjuice26, how could you diss her? She's an amazing artist, and I would'nt doubt she has an amazing personality to go with it.

  • I like the way you changed it. bringin the crunchy jams!

  • You have a lovely voice. I appreciate the simplicity in your delicate tone. Stick with it!! As your confidence grows, resist the temptation to hide your vulnerability (it's a good thing).

  • wow you have an amazing voice! not to mention your gorgeous!

    Great Cover!

  • your voice is amazing it gives goose bumps.

  • woah, ur can sing and play guitar, and ur really pretty... shup im not hitting on u lol

  • best youtube version out there

    your voice is beautiful

    and i wish i could play the guitar like that.

    :)

  • o m f g

    ilu - in a non gay way :o

  • excellent excellent excellent

  • I really like this, a lot.

    And usually I stick to the original songs.

    But, really good job. (=

  • I liked that!

  • hahaha i rock back and forth when i play too lol nothing to be ashamed of

  • i agree with jonhimself, you have to put your own style into a song, or else your not a musician with your own style your just a copycat, i think she did a great job even though u think her tempo was "off" LOL

  • your voice is so emotional. i really like this cover!

  • another amazing cover! keep 'em coming!

  • Coming from someone who's played for six years...I definitely disagree. Covers are not suppose to be like the creator. If they were, I wouldn't listen to anyone but the Shins Version...because there'd be no point. I think the Shins might look at this song and be like...hey...lets try this tempo...she might be onto something.

  • exactly!

  • u r sooo right dude^.^

  • @JonHimself I agree a hundred percent with you, Jon. I love how she change the vocal melody slightly and the tempo, and the strumming pattern. I think this is a great cover. I like it equally as much as the original. It's got a mellower style. And the vocals are perfect. :)

  • your playing is wonderful both on the instrument and in your vocals however NEVER practice without a metronome. the shins do it at about 120. i say this because your tempos aren't entirely solid. i will get tons of shit for this comment because narrow minded retards can't recognize constructive criticism and advice. even if it comes from a professional musician...keep at it girl you rock my world !

  • Who cares if the shins do it at 120. She's doing her own version and can speed up parts if she feels like it. Playing an emotional song like a metronome is about as narrow minded as it gets. It's called feel dude.

  • she explained in her discrip that she speeded up the strumming a bit... if u read it or not...

  • That was a delicious treat. Thank you.

  • oh wow, this was really amazing.

    your voice is beautiful.

    i love that song, and i love the way you covered it.

    nice job :]

  • i wish i sang as well as you did.

  • Female vocals totally change this great song, its still great though!

  • just woke up? your hair looks perfecttt

    lol, this sounds great! i love the song, too

  • haha you're seeing the side I didnt sleep on!

    thanks :o]

  • god i love this song now

  • A great cover of a great song.

  • i love this... your voice sounds so fragile. but strong at the same time ^^

  • you look good without makeup :] great job on this :O

  • very nice:D

    i love the shins and i love this song!

    you should do kissing the lipless

  • this really bothers me...she's pretty good and i love the song but she sounds a little shaky

  • hot singer, hot voice, hot song

    very great, i want a studio quality verison! lol

  • your an amazing singer and guitar player!! its aaamaazzziinnngg!!!!

  • shed still get it..

  • move to much.. please its all about feeling the music and thats what that is XD lol great job.

  • Well done.

  • and what about the mess in your room? :P

  • Haha, that's alll legit.

    Though It's actually my mom's sculpting studio :o] She's a wonderful artist

  • oh really? Ok ok ok that's a good enough excuse for me :P btw, happy new year :)

  • WAY TOOO much vibrato. for real, cool it, dont force it so much, cuz there is real talent behind those fake un-natural vibratos

    WAY TOO REBAish imo

    4/5 still

  • that's what makes her voice unique

    and amazing.

    and she doesnt sound anything like reba.

    =]

  • The vibrato in my voice is completely natural, it's all just a package deal. I don't usually force it, it just comes with the way I sing :] I've always had a shaky fragility in my voice.. It shows

    Thanks though :p

  • i need you to make a cd. pllleaase!

  • Ooooo. I like this one.

    I like the naturalness of it.

    =]

  • This is my favorite Kelc=]

    I love you.

    OH.

  • Amazing [L]

  • awesome job!!!! I just heard this song the other day. You are young and talented best of luck in everything you do!!!!

  • Wow.

  • You're sooo good. I love the guitar, and voice. Make a cd PLEASE!

  • Wow you definately do this song justice. You really do have an awesome voice.

  • You still sooooo darn good, nice cover!

  • i'm still loving your voice, very nice done...

  • I like how you move way too much too, it shows you're really playing the guitar and not faking.

    Seriously hoping you post an original song soon. I'm excited to hear something that was created in your heart.

  • wow that was fucking really good love your vioce

  • A charming song.

    You did delightfully.

  • awesome work. wonderful song and fantastic voice!

  • I'm sure the Shins would be overly proud. This is a great cover, and your voice is lovely as always. I like the way you strum the song. It's very nice. It does that song justice. Keep it up. Looking forward to more songs. Perhaps even an original maybe?

  • again, wonderful! id still love to hear your original works!
