thank you for making this video, ive only been able to one other cover of this song with vocals, yours were not bad, i guess i liket the originals better, but the chorus u sung was pretty good, but apart from the vocals, i was suprised to see all this other stuff u did, bongo's ect. over all i thought it sounded awesome.
@sophiekilo obviously his singing was nothing like the vocalist from devotchka, but that's what made it different. thats what made it his own. his voice is great, in a totally different way that the vocalist from devotchkas is great. plus, you can hear the feeling in his voice. if i hear no soul in the music, in my opinions, it isn't even worth listening to.
hey, man, great job! That's like something I'd do alone in my apartment haha... in fact I'm planning on recording my own cover, however, your equipment is far more supperior : ) Thank you for this! Cheers!
your a great singer im suscribing >.> damn loved the piano playing too. If you can; can you tell me where you found out how to play the song on piano. plz :D and thx for vid
pero que maravilla....te puedo pedir un super favor...es que me muero por tener esas partituras y poder montarlas en piano o en violin...me puedes ayudar enviandomelas....o diciendome donde las encuentro?
Wow, this is really great! I'll definately watch your other videos too. I just uploaded my own version of this song, a few minutes ago, check it out if you want :)
Good job on this cover, but just as a preference, I think I liked the original one so much just because of the elaboration of words and the few notes, they both worked together to make it a sad song, this one seems a little too energetic, and upbeat, kinda like the music's sincerety doesn't match the words'. Not that that's bad or anything, still good job, I'm just letting you know my opinion.
i agree completely.........this isnt something I spent much time on....sort of a im bored lets make a cover in an hour kind of thing..the original is brilliant and has an energy i couldnt recreate .
I'm grateful that Gears of War used this in their latest trailor, I never would have heard it otherwise.. or at least really paid attention as I am now. Good music is good music regardless of how it is publicized.
People may think its bad that Gears of War are using this song but because of it its getting attention it well deserves.The last one they used in Gears of war 1 was Gary jules's version of mad world and that went number one for something like 2 weeks i think
Incredible!!I love this song..I love all your video,and many of your favorites are mine too- LaBlogotheque,Sufjan and Cat Stev,Matthew Santos...Great music!
i really like the percussion on the actual track.....you should listen to the original....unfortunately i only have a djembe instead of a full drum set.
Hey Jim, congratulations to you and your wife firstly, and secondly for such a delightful tune. I really liked this one. I'm very impressed by the many different angles in the video too, obvious amounts of work here.
Hey, not so bad thanks.. Job's going ok, though I'm ready to move on already. It's not really stimulating enough for me and it's far too much traveling too. Been kinda worn out with trying to keep the yt thing going in the evenings.. I dunno, I'm sure it'll come good.. I'm gonna go apply for some jobs now.
Good man...just working alot. Also Me and the wife are expecting and everything is going good on that front. I hate that the jobs not workin out as planned hope something else comes through for ya man.
Oh my gawd! congratulations man! that's absolutely splendid news! fantabulous! Well, I'll send good vibes to your wife's tum! Have a grand weekend mate :)
yeah just the first verse cause my cheap multi-track uses a memory card and when using this many tracks it fills up quickly. I need a bigger card or some new gear....one of the two.
goooooooooooooood job!!!!
