Iron and Wine - Such Great Heights

[calbobbball]

absolutely one of the best covers I've ever heard

[SamWiseGamgee42]

Best. Cover. Ever.....

[GetThisThingCrunk]

songs like this and Hurt covered by Johnny Cash just show that covers can be better than the original, if not A LOT better.

[Saruhh93]

My favorite version of this song.

[SouhaaMusic]

this is pretty :)

[TheDazzalicious]

@zikolatesla That's amazing!

[beethewalrus]

I played this song at my wedding!

[rdk2828]

just recently made a cover of this cover, and I would love to hear some feedback :) you can find it on my channel!

[doulx92]

@rdk2828 if u check our out =]

[Official53X]

I made a version of this song mixed with the rainy mood. come check out my channel. it's the most recent video.

[HereticTakesFlight]

I like it for that the one by the postal service

[mdr316love]

Slightly peeved at this cover, nowhere near as good as the original by The Postal Service.

[Beforeyouandme]

I once broke my weiner at a metal show now I'm a pussy, still listen to metal.

Oh boy metal must be fantastic.

[Markthebeastbeasley]

gay as fuck sorry but i think this cover sucks hate me if you want but the confide cover is so much better

[Monumentos]

Finally got around to recording a version of this cover on my youtube. With pro audio!

[JENJEN69ify]

love his voice<333

[rdk2828]

Just posted my version of an acoustic cover of this song! Feel free to check it out, I would love some feedback :)

[pRiMeValNeRd]

Oh god this song made Misfits unbearable, I was crying my eyes out re-watching season 1.

[elementjrm]

so soothing and beautiful....Flightless Bird by Iron and Wine is beautiful too:)

[Newyorklove234]

who wrote this song?

[ekserdjigan]

@Newyorklove234 The original is by The Postal Service

[lonnielong13]

Dia Frampton's version is better. :)

[PapaChocsDaBurr]

This world is truly beautiful....

[Nathanvogele]

279 Heavy Metal listeners saw this and were shamed.

[AndersCules]

@Nathanvogele Everyone else saw your post, and were appalled at the shallow and judgmental undertones.

A lot of people listen to a lot of different music. It's ignorant to think people that listen to metal don't listen to anything else.

[Nathanvogele]

@AndersCules *I personally disagree with you.* Have you ever heard Metal? It's so loud and mind numbing that you ear's want to bleed.

anyone who would stand up for that Junk also has a Tin Ear.

[AndersCules]

@Nathanvogele Wow, really? Your ignorance baffles me. I have been listening to metal my entire life. Pantera made me fall in love with music, and I try to listen to as much as I can. I love metal. Thrash, melodic, death, some black, I even broke my foot at a hardcore-concert once. I listen to a lot of different music, and that's my point. I love Iron and Wine too, and I feel sorry for people who can only listen to one type of music. You're missing out on so much.

[Nathanvogele]

@AndersCules I will feel very sorry for you in about 10 years when you are deaf and your falling into the deepest depression imaginable.

How can you like music that's whole point is to make you feel sad? It is just a bunch of people complaining about things they could make better if they'd just put forth some actual effort and become an upstanding human being. Anybody who likes Any music as stupid as that is a sad excuse for a person.

[Nathanvogele]

@AndersCules I must also point out that it was in fact YOU! who started this. I simply said I really enjoyed this video!

[pinkyamanbagirl]

@AndersCules I applaud you. Some of my favorite bands are Death Metal, and some of my favorite bands are Indie. Then I love reggeton! Classical, Electronic, House! I love it all. And a true music lover knows how to appreciate the beautiful diversity that IS music! At least AndersCules and I will go deaf happy and sated! (:

[ivanyantis]

Weird combination but acid and this song are a good combination

[SmellaMuerte]

@ivanyantis good call buddy

[BrendanProverbium]

proverbium.tumblr.com

[ActingGeek13]

I love this song,

But I am now obsessed with this cover...

<3

[LiarMD]

There's a girl I like very much. And this song now reminds me of her.

[MrAi47]

i was taking a girl home the other day...i asked her if she ever heard of iron and wine...she said no...and i played this song about a minute into it she just started crying.

[xduckyfeetx]

@MrAi47 my bf played this for me last night and i started tearing up. i didnt wanna cry :L

[Misscork17]

I like sitting in the dark and listening to this.

[droopycupid101]

MISFITS <3

[firehazzard2112]

Go to google, type in "rainy mood" and then click the first link, while that is playing in the background, click back on this song, press play, and enjoy

[ThelmaHarrelson]

@firehazzard2112 GREAT TIP...........SO RELAXING THX

[legzandherpiano]

@firehazzard2112 Perfection.. <33

[partychick6464]

@firehazzard2112  you are a genius!! :)

[federicodzn]

@firehazzard2112 thanks mate, nice tip. Have a nice year!!!

[xAlehxGoesxRawrx]

@firehazzard2112 I have really bad insomnia, usually never get more than half an hour of sleep. I followed what you said and it put me out for nearly three hours. (: thank you!

[rideswind44]

@firehazzard2112 thank you, thats awesome

[winters0123]

@firehazzard2112 Or, if you live in the UK, just open the window. :)

[ukelivia]

proves that sometimes it takes two completely different perspectives to make one great song. The postal service's lyrics with this voice and tenderness of this version create one of my favorite songs :)

[TheLeFair]

RIP Cam. We miss you.

[DoctorZzo]

Holy shit, I first heard the Postal Service one, which came first? This is great though!

[MicaylaBussieres]

@DoctorZzo the postal service one was first.

[jumaaana]

@MicaylaBussieres But the version of Iron & Wine is definitly better! :)

[MicaylaBussieres]

@jumaaana i defffinitely do not think so. I love the postal service's original version, because it's actually happy, and Ben Gibbard's voice is much nicer.

[jumaaana]

@MicaylaBussieres I like both of them. But I prefer the version of 'Iron & Wine' .. To each his own :)

[jeremyatemyface]

@MicaylaBussieres No freaking way, this version is so soft and gentle, Iron and Wine's voice is definitely nicer than ben gibbard's!

[prestonn77]

@DoctorZzo The Postal Service made the original song, this is only a cover; But still amazing (:

[leftwithoutadoubt]

if a guy sang this to me, i swear, i'd marry him ♥

[eduardoaffini85]

@leftwithoutadoubt i just did it for a girl a fall deep in love, but she just walk away, left me alone whit my guitar.

[leftwithoutadoubt]

@eduardoaffini85 then i just don't understand this world.

[TheBassPlayersCat]

@leftwithoutadoubt yea this just is what music should be and i mean it really hits home

[evandb42]

Reminds me of how much I miss my ex

[unfluster]

WAY too sensitive...CREEPY!!!

[MrJackiisan]

Meh, good but confide did it way better imo

[nevertextnever]

@MrJackiisan he is the one that wrote this song. so your opinion is irrelevant.

[HeadBangar1030]

@nevertextnever It's originally by The Postal Service.

[HeadBangar1030]

@MrJackiisan Confide is scientifically bad music.

[MrJackiisan]

@HeadBangar1030 No shit, it's better then this though.

[HeadBangar1030]

@MrJackiisan Um, no.

[Sayuridesu]

Sweet but boring version of the song, I think. :(

[gears00011]

amaziiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiing!!!! :D

[willwelive]

best song .....ever.

[DanseurJamais]

Listen to this really loud with headphones. Eyes automatically close.

[JJMooN311]

My boyfriend sent this to me, i havent seen in since he got arrested...i cry all the time to this..because its so perfect for our love

[juanmablaine]

I CAN'T FAVOURITE THIS!!!

[usedfuzzbox]

Balls to all these negative comments, press play, close your eyes, and just go somewhere else for a few minutes. Simple.

[trisha6darque]

That M&M's commercial from yearsssssss ago brought me here. :P I've been trying to figure out what the damn song was called...and I finally found it!<3

[Mattnumbers]

I like the original better but this is definitely a very good cover. Not too similar to the original and with it's own sort of style. More of a different song with identical lyrics than anything.

[OhkaTai18]

@FissionNonStop Hipsters such a dreadful word.

[FissionNonStop]

this is the bullshit hipster version

[BaldingPorcupine]

Misfits(TV Show) led me here. Look it up ;)

[PhonicsJunkie]

@BaldingPorcupine should have known it before a TV show guided you

[TheCocopuff1]

@PhonicsJunkie It should not matter when and how you found it. The important is that it's found :D

[666shakenbake]

very cute.<3 idc who made this originally,, this is my favorite..

[sweetlittlemissie37]

@666shakenbake it is originally by the Postal Service

[Akaliii1]

this song + listening to the rain = ♥

[irishballa10]

this is nirvana

[gitarrojoe]

exact same chord sequence and even the picking is close to trapeze swinger

[thecottingleyfairy]

this is better than the original.

[loveforxtina2]

I love this song <3

I wish there was a version slower than the postal service's and fast than iron and wine's to walk down the aisle to. sigh...my search continues.

[MrTRmorse]

@loveforxtina2 You can always dance to this one :)

[solangi224]

When you say thats so retarded do you realize what you've started?

[XXDeathTherapyXX]

this is great but i like the confide version better. only because i'm more into music like that

[j3sslov3su14]

I love thiss<3.

[killorbekilled100]

Listen to this with sounds of nature in the background, it's like they were made for each other

[megsx9xcute]

these are the nice quiet moments i have when i'm alone,

and when i finally get to listen to music i enjoy.

feel bad for me,

all four of my best friends are smitten for 103.5.

you can only imagine my face while we're in the car..

[nicoleyoungtv]

@megsx9xcute i can tell you live near chicago cause of the radio station:]

[megsx9xcute]

@nicoleyoungtv

hahaha! i didnt even think of that, as dumb as it sounds i forgot that radio stations change for different places!!!!

[lilwebbaba]

@megsx9xcute Lmao xD

[gReAtHiTs]

is this the original first before Postal Service? or Postal's one is the original?

[MiscellaneousMush]

@gReAtHiTs i think postal's is original

[babyblustarz]

This is me and my sweetheart's song.. <3

[TheMord]

postal service ftw. I prefer the original. It's too sloppy

.

[ndirish14310]

this is a cover to Postal Service's song. The Postal Service came out with this song in 2003 and Iron and Wine came out with this cover in 2006

[TheMegasuperginger]

This is incredibly beautiful. It makes me have hope in love

[StoverTV]

Wait, wait. Such Great Heights? Are they covering The Postal Service or vice-versa?

[miikurubeam]

@StoverTV You got it. 

[baggytights1991]

@StoverTV it's a postal service original

[FrostFox9]

@baggytights1991

Not really.

/watch?v=rmXslBjoffs

This is the original.

[thedudleman]

@FrostFox9 If you look at the description, it says the song's by The Postal Service.

[danpoo14]

@FrostFox9 Postal service is the original. Check the album fuzzbox by the section quartet. Its a cover.

[123koolrox]

Man, I don't know which one's better. This is a softer tune, and Postalservice is so happy and brightning.. I love them both. They're both equally amazingg. <3

[SevenThirtyFive]

Huh, so this is a cover. See, I never thought that it was because it's so much better than the Postal Service's rendition. So much better.

[MrTaylorator]

holy shit

[Jacksragingbileduct4]

@JerkyRonson Thanks for the input but no one cares what you think bud. Get a life.

[sonofpigmeat]

Probably the best song ever to remember a heart-breaking one night stand.

I love you Heather, I miss you, and I always will.

[miikurubeam]

@sonofpigmeat Your comment broke my heart.

[ehtikhet]

This sounds like heartbreak.



[VideoJunky]

Garden State.

[StripedStockings759]

My sister danced to this at her wedding. ♡

[tararob16]

@StripedStockings759 mine too!

[thecottingleyfairy]

gorgeous

[KylieIshBeast]

Very chill. <3

[SerasxAlucard]

I heard this song first from a Fry and Leela video that I don't think is on here anymore but I fell in love with it and cried~

[hazeej]

@ethorner1 Postal Service did it first, but when they released the single, it included Iron and Wine's cover--a decent two-fer.

[DanNetting]

This makes me wantr to cry when i have no reason whatsoever

[ConvictedArsonist]

Everyone who keeps replying to JerkyRonson: Stop responding to him, he's trolling you.

[coolbluemidnite]

@JerkyRonson so it makes total sense to come to the video you hate to leave a hate comment when your going to get bad crap said back to you -.-

[RawDinosaurMeat]

This and Streetlight Manifesto's version are my absolute favorite ♥

[ferki1234567]

@JerkyRonson you're an idiot.



[moldyweed420]

i want this to be played at my funeral

[CosmicVitamins]

@moldyweed420 I want this played at my birth! (again)

[pengfui]

@moldyweed420 you have the entire life to listen this song, stop talking about funeral =)

[rit3ousk155]

@moldyweed420 This comment made me laugh out loud! lol

[ethorner1]

what version of this came first? postal service or iron and wine's? i first heard it by postal service.

[drewgair]

@ethorner1 postal service was first

[AimeeViolette]

Parenthood.

[missdailybailey]

@AimeeViolette loved tonight's episode!!!! loved the song choice for the birth scene!!!

[HypnoticGuitar]

Oh, and Streetlight Manifesto.

[HypnoticGuitar]

There's not one version of this song which I don't like. This is great, confide is great, and the original is great. Each in their own way.

[beJOYfulyo]

@JerkyRonson The song has no whining whatsoever. Get your brain straightened out, mate.

[Chantalallen]

Everybody, just shut up an listen.

[beanerzisdumb]

@JerkyRonson

Ladies and gentleman, a quite fine example of what one might call a 'douchebag.'

[StrawberryGiraffes]

I love this.

[prisionnerofsociety]

Oh my god! It should be against law to make such a monotone cover! This version is even worse that the Confide one.

Now José González, that guy makes good covers, not like this peace of crap.

[J0ELSTJ0HN]

If you get a sec, click on my channel...hope you don't hate it! Cheers!!

[perry842]

misfits :D

[AdGarUK]

@perry842 Don't remember this song on misfits :\

Which episode was it on?

[perry842]

@AdGarUK I think it was the last episode of the 1st season.

[AdGarUK]

@perry842 Thanks, man :)

[vinhElementhouse]

@JerkyRonson Calm down tough guy, you whining about this whiny shit is both retarded and redundant. Go listen to something with auto-tune in it.

[TheMessybessy]

@vinhElementhouse lol, you sure told him.

[YasuKikyo]

I can't help but like this more than the original. It's more soulful and heartfelt.

[sk8er4ever0101]

lets compare apples and peanuts! both versions have their place...

[Valkodu]

@sk8er4ever0101 Apples are better than peanuts. Peanuts are too salty. Apples are nice and juicy.

[sk8er4ever0101]

@Valkodu who eats apples while drinking?!

[sferlisi1]

@k8lynAlv95 that ended up being so amazing! Thanks for the tip! I can't stop listening to the two together XD



[karaisamazing1995]

Sucha good song!! I like this version better then Postal Service's.

[itsLieef]

wish I could open 2 tabs on my iPhone so I could listen to the rainy mood en this beautiful song while going off to never land <3 :(

[hersh94]

Im seeing him OCT 15!!!! CANT WAIT!

[AngelDiegoJ]

so who made this first postal service or iron and wine

[mewibewi]

@AngelDiegoJ postal service

[Blakkrose666]

@AngelDiegoJ

Postal Service.

[ElliotBrookshaw1]

one of the greatest remixes of another artists work i've heard in my life. absolutely love this song.

[hotjizzsoup]

@ElliotBrookshaw1 also known as a cover

[Mila897]

Again! And the rainy mood thing? Way good idea!
