  • Serious credit a really good cover, I will keep tuned in on what you are up to! May I ask what software you use to add the reverb?

  • i want to be your best friend you seem cool.

  • :]

  • Amaga. Have I mentioned lately that you're amazing? :o

  • dont let stage fright ruin u i had it bad till i grew my hair out and just covered my eyes it made me feel better now i dont have to do that i just study my instument while im on stage that seems to work for me so get out their that was a very good cover u should wright origonals

  • @gratefuldank - thanks. I'm glad you found a way to get past it. I continue to hide behind a computer screen. :) As for originals, I am putting out an EP later this year. Stay tuned... visit me on the facebook to keep in the loop. :)

  • @thebrooke

    'Behind a computer screen' - no bad thing.

    You have total freedom in your music and choice.

    Brought Hope Sandoval to my family because of you. She deals with an audience in her own way.

    It's funny , the voice inside has so much to say but the fear of attention can destroy it. I want my children to express themselves but they can't if they don't see me doing it. It's painful because of my history but now and then I try. It won't be here for ever.. so.....

    Can't wait for your EP.

  • @Weenybean - extremely well said, and thanks. :)

  • @gratefuldank ok i checked u out on fbook come check us out it might not be your brand of music but u never know i gave u a like no gve us a like Hell-Freeze thanks and keep up the good work

    peace

  • lazy guiatr playing.

    

  • May you please do the cover of "The House of the Rising Sun" by The Animals, "In the Year 2525" by Zager and Evans, and last but not least "Sealed with a Kiss" by Bryan Hyland.

    I can only imagine how it would sound if you did them. It would be greatly appreciated ^_^

    Oh and possibly "House of Cards" by Radiohead and "Body Urge" by The Great Fiction, "Major Tom (Coming Home)" by Peter Schilling. -Thank You

  • @VelvetBeauty17 - Requests, noted! Thanks :)

  • outstanding!

  • sublime, increible, !

  • I came back. You are simply amazing........Oh btw, strumming it instead of plucking it works just fine. I didn't come here to listen to Thom, I came to listen to Brooke.

  • Ive listened to other covers of this song, by females too, and none of them can top this!! thats in my opinion though. your voice is truly beautiful and i hope when i die its what angels sound like in heaven.

  • Nice beautiful voice!!

  • Hey, nice cover. I have a question though, why not do the arpeggio style of the original version of this song?

  • I like how you strummed the chords. I thought I was the only one who wanted to strum these chords haha. Not bad not bad. And she's cute haha.

  • Thanks everybodies! :) For those asking about buying my songs, I'm trying to figure out how to do it, but licensing all these covers, even a few, is beyond my budget. Looking into some kind of direct exchange donation type model instead... contact me if you have any ideas. And everyone, please join me at my facebook page - "TheBrooke. TheBand." :)

  • I've been telling everyone "hey, you gotta check out this girls voice!" and everyone loves your sound and wants to download your music. Can't wait! :-) Your sound is very ghostly/angelic and would be great for soundtracks to movies & shows like The Grimm, Red Riding Hood, etc.

  • Are you touring? Do you have a website?

  • @Hillbillytrucker Not touring due to working-motherhood plus crippling stage fright, but I am getting set up to start recording again! and I did just make a proper facebook page. Youtube won't let me post the link, but just search "TheBrooke. TheBand." :)

  • You are absolutely wonderful. I listen to your videos all the time around the house...

  • I will get a heartattack when u upload your new video (:

  • The Brooke is AMAZING!!!! Who is this girl? Why can't I buy her cd??? I've looked everywhere! Seriously Brooke, I want to buy your music! How?

  • @furelise2798 - I'm in the process of licensing these covers so check back in a month or so and I'll have a link to where you can get them. Thanks fer asking! :)

  • Thank you. Thank you so much.

  • que voz linda ! parabéns querida :) você é maravilhosa .. Bjs

  • Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­ow!!!!!!!!!! wonderful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Nice taste

  • such unique "ambient" voice, keep it up!

  • hello!

    well done:)

    check out my version too...thx

    -Anja-

  • as if no one has commented on this for 3 years! mental! simply amazing xx

  • @benstan48 - that would be mental! but I just reopened these videos to comments last month, in preparation for my big comeback. :)

  • @thebrooke reckoner or nude from "in rainbows" would suit your voice for this triumph comeback :) xx

  • @benstan48 - I will put those on my list of requests!

  • Very nice.

  • I can't wait until you finish your album! your voice is hypnotizing and I would definitely buy your cd.

  • You've got an amazing voice BUT PLEASE don't play the guitar like that! :( Check out the tabs and learn how to pluck the song, I think it'll be great if you do. NO OFFENSE, really, just trying to make you better than best. =) The chords are right, just do the pluck-thing. Keep up with the good work ;)

  • she does know how, look at the about this video in the right hand corner. not being a smart ass, just letting you know.

  • @dinmammaosv - if you go back to my earliest videos... you'll see, I know how to play it correctly, just not how to play it correctly and sing it awesomely at the same time. I = not much of a multi-tasker. But no offense taken. :)

  • this is fantastic!

    would you like to share the chords you're using? I'd really love to learn to play it this way.

  • Thanks Symmanine (and everyone)!

    The chords are the same as the original, except strummed and using a capo (on the 3rd or 4th fret, I think)... Am + Em for verses and C, Em + Am for the chorus.

  • i a mexican boy my english not good ok but your music its a perfect song choice for night relax in the TJ beach its perfect ok thanks

    i download your music in my zune very good choice GO ON

  • good job on using the unbroken chords

  • Excellent cover, great voice and style, keep it up :D

    P.S : Way better than mine 0_0 lol ;P

  • what i call a proper cover - an impressionist, not an emulation.

  • Nice voice - nice cover :)

  • usually i think that radiohead should not be covered because people don't seem to understand that thom's voice is a very important element in the magic of their songs. i think that your voice agrees with radiohead. very nice.

  • je ne sait plus quoi dire...juste je t'aime...serieusemen tu est bien plus que talentueuse...marry me!

  • mais non! J'ai voire la femme premier! (mon francais est merde)

    alors, d'accord...que bella!

  • Opening reminded me of the old song "Sandman" by "America".

    You could cover that tune better than the original.

    (There's a karaoke track on youtube to practice the lyrics by if you get the impulse. Just resist the urge to change tempos midway, as they did in the original, which flaked up the song.)

    You've got an ethereal edge that is very compelling.

    Keep cooking!

    Can't wait for the platter. (AKA: CD)

  • you really are amazing

    and i dont say that lightly

    your voice is sublime

  • nice cover :)

  • this is one of my favorite recordings

    thanks brooke

  • This young lady has talent

    beautiful voice, also credit for Radiohead, they wrote the song.

  • Thanks very kindly, everyone.

  • @thebrooke  ILOVEYOU

  • Do you think you'll upload high&dry by radiohead someday?

    If you do so, I'd be very pleased.

  • It could happen. Not doing covers for awhile, but someday. :)

  • Damn, you're so f*cking good! Street spirit is my favourite song of all times. But you've substituted Thom Yorke by the Brooke in my (radio)head... I think, u don't realize how big u will be. Take care of yourself, good luck with your career!

  • You are very talented. Truely.

  • I really love your voice and the way you sing this song. It's like it was Feist's singer who was singing this this song, so pretty.

    J'adore ta voix et ta façon de chanter cette chanson. C'est un peu comme si j'entendais la chanteuse de Feist chanter ça, c'est charmant!

  • You

    are

    amazing.

  • superbe voix! j'adore!

  • The the reverb sounds so damn good with this song and your voice.

  • just beatiful amazing voice

  • your voice reminds of me of the cranberries. Just beautiful!

  • Can I be president of your fan club?

  • yes. yes you may.

  • You can be really big. Please stay true to what I have seen in your video's. Don't let them make you into something you are not.

  • beautiful! love your voice, in some parts the vocals are a bit quiet and getting drowned out. But still, amazing!

  • will you marry me?

  • will you sing me to sleep?

  • you tear this one up

  • amazing as usually :) kiss ^^

  • so beautiful. i may be forced to respond.

  • I think I'm in love with you. You ahve such an amazing voice. Do you have a CD or something?

  • Thanks Brit654... I don't have a CD yet but I'm working on one! stay tuned. :)

  • Did you happen to check out In Rainbows yet??

  • Thanks everyone for the sweet comments!

    gratefuldead76 -- I have not checked it out yet, no. It's weird. I keep forgetting. Soon though, I'm sure. You?

  • yea, i have it. it's amazing. possibly my favorite after kid a.

  • still great as every brooke :)

  • Your covers make me laugh

  • This is one of my favorite songs by Radiohead. You did it proud. Much obliged for your talent.

  • I have already posted on two of your other videos and rated them 5s...I just can't get over how awesome you are. Favorite musical artist list: 1.Radiohead 2.thebrooke(!)

  • i'm pretty sure i'm deeply in love with you.

  • hmm i like less this one cuz you were lazy and don't play the piking version its not that hard to learn. do it and the song will pwn^^

  • actually shes got another video of this song just an instrumental with the pickin n no singing. so obviously she already knows how to do it but felt a strummin version would be different and fitting, as it is most definitely fitting and awsome

  • Please put out an album. Do I need to eat a bug or something? Just do it- please!! I'm eating the bug...right now...choke..gulch.. Ok- it's done- now make an album- PLEASE :)

  • am i hearing bjork ??!  very nice job !

  • You never cease to amaze me! I am absolutely memorized by your voice. No matter how stressful the day, I can always come and play one of your covers and just melt into a pool of relaxed goo!!! lol

    <----begging for you to put out an album

    Larry

  • You have a very haunting voice. Beautiful. Matches the song's theme.

  • im sorry you HAVE to arpeggiate the chord or the song loses its feeling, you do have a good voice though

  • do u go 2 my school???

  • I am so glad I found you. I love your music, your spirit comes through beautifully. you sing with such emotion! :)

  • FANTASTIC!!!

  • As of yet i've noticed that you sign better than the bands you cover lol, all the best in your obvious future fame

  • you are beautiful... regards... hermosa...  chula..

  • achingly beautiful

  • umm... what?? absolutely chilling. I have a strong attachment to this song, and you interpreted it beautifully. WOW! i'm sure i've fallin in love with you as well:). you're cover of "Landslide" and "Fade Into You", cathartic. keep it up.

  • Astronomically great.

  • I'm in love with you :S

  • I think this is the best cover of Street Spirit I've ever seen. Street Spirit is possibly my favorite song of all time, and if not, it's pretty close, and you did it justice. You are amazing.

  • Thanks everybodies!

  • you did a radiohead cover that sounds good.

    you'v just earn a fan.

  • wow

  • Your voice is amazing and resonates nicely. Is like a Sarah McClachlan, Norah Jones hybrid sound

  • i really like your voice! really beutifull!

  • wow, i didn't expect that

    you could ease on the echo/reverb or whatever, but your voice and sound is fab! now, i'm going to check out your other stuff!

  • That was one of the most amazing things I have ever seen

  • I love love love it! Bravo!

  • Your voice combined with Radiohead sounds great. I really liked it. :) Melle

  • beautiful voice, great song, amazing cover! congratulations!

  • you have a beautiful voice,and I love this song.nice job.you should do another radiohead cover.

  • Great stuff :) You should cover some Shin songs from chutes too narrow, or some more Beck that'd be cool !

  • Wow!!!

    Damn you're good...

    This is one of my favorite songs :)

  • Man I wish i could play like that :)

  • (...slightly less than 24hrs later)

    k. think i got the chords down, now. Hope you don't mind if i jam along with you this time through, B. Throw in a bit of harmony, maybe? Perhaps just a little unobtrusive eggshaker action to start? i'll follow you....

    ...2...3...4...

  • Like your metronomically swaying pendants behind you, i was gently moved by this one, B.

    Your sound is oh so on.

    Not unlike your shining :)

  • This one melts my heart. I'm excited by the fact that this isn't a carbon-copy cover. Your voice is very soft and sweet.

    I'm going to keep an eye on your myspace page for originals!

  • i think a cover of Portishead or maybe really Pink Floyd would be cool. I really enjoyed listening to all your Covers instead of buying myself a new Pack of Cigarettes.. need more of your Music or i'll start smoking again ;).

  • you have a beautiful voice

  • AWSOME, also please don't loose your mind working on album:P

  • You rock!

  • Very nice! One thing, though.. Maybe I wouldn't notice the great amount of strumming as much, if your voice was more at the front of the mix. (I assumed you wanted some critique/feedback.) Other than that I found your playing really good, and it's definitely your version. Good luck with your album! BTW: "Apple Blossom" by The White Stripes is probably way too easy for you. ;P

  • God, you guys. Too nice. Thanks :)

    Originals aren't to a point where I would perform them live.. I'm just reclusively working away at my album little by little. If I don't lose my mind first, I hope it will be worth the wait.

  • Let me know when you release your album, I'm pretty sure I can listen to that all the time.

  • WOW, what a nice Voice. And you're doing very well with the Guitar ! I wish i would be as good as you. Realy like your Version ! You definitely rock ! :).

    Maybe someone checks out my Vids.. ? :).

  • did u opt to mumble the words out or where u too shy to sing a bit louder?it s almost perfect anyway

  • i want to marry a musical artist that would be so cool to listen to this everyday.. ur great brooke!!!!!

  • That was fantastic - *****.. I think it sounds cool strummed. But with your voice you can kind of do whatever you want.

  • LMFAO@ scratch n sniff lotto tickets....Brooke...can you post some of your original stuff? would love to hear it!!

  • you are great,love it

  • woW~! it sounds difrent but really good!

    i just luv it!.

    can u do paranoid android??

  • Wow...that gave me chills girl..or it could be these darn wife beater Ts I got on...very good nonetheless. We got 2 brooke covers in one week? I'm gonna go buy a scratch and sniff lotto ticket.

  • You know, an absolutely great (and hard to cover) Radiohead is Exit Music (for a Film). There is also a fantastic and well-edited music video on here for it that takes the original idea for the song and adds to it. That is something I would love to hear you cover...PPPPPPPPPlease!! (Roger Rabbit squeals...)

  • OMG!!! I have a favorite song now! and your my favorite singer!! Thanks alot Brooke for all your great songs,your amazing to watch and you have one of those original voices like Hope Sandoval. Where can i get a CD of you?

  • Hi,

    I have listened to many versions of my favourite Radiohead song and would rate yours highest. You have captured the mood which essentially this song is all about. I am going to be posting a version of No Surpises soon. Radiohead always make me drift. Keep on keeping on.

  • Aaaaaah, it's so great!!!!!!!

  • OMG that's so sweet...

  • adoroooo

    você é linda... linda=beautiful

    voz= voice

    voz linda!

    Sou brasileiro (I'm brazilian)

    biejos= kisses

  • Great performance, great rendition, imho. Certainly true to the spirit of the song. Yay!

  • I agree with the other comments though: I wish you could do a fingerpicking version...hard as it is. I know you know how, since you put out the "how to play" version. Anyway, this has always been a favorite of mine to play. I'd love to show you my version, but I presently have no webcam...

  • Thanks y'all. :) btw, I opted to strum this only because I wanted to do it differently (and yes, it is easier while singing). But if you must see me finger-pick it, go watch the 2nd video I ever posted here (there's no singing - I wasn't brave enough to sing yet). It's just a short demo, not the full song, and

    you might be blinded by the simultaneous contrast of my shirt, but there it is.

  • Yeah, those needly little notes are almost impossible to hit right every time. I normally just do the chord version of this song too, but I wish I were good enough to do it with just those haunting individual notes.  I think that is why I almost have never seen Thom Yorke play this by himself. Johnny Greenwood always backs him up. I think you did an absolutely excellent job covering it vocally and moving it up a bit.

  • what a great song. so glad to see you again around here. i thought you were gonna play it fingerpicking, what tab did you use?

    Excellent work, and yes, hair is quite irrelevant :D

  • Hey you again!

    always good to cover this one,but indeed a little to early with the strumming.you gotta build this song up toward its climax

  • Bah ... Picking would be much beter then strumming ...

    but it still a good cover :) keep the videos coming

  • bah... shutting up and enjoying would be MUCH better then complaining...^^

    but still a nice try to add a meaningful comment ;) keep trying

  • o.O LoL

  • hey brooke

    and again you hit the right spot !

    awesome as ever

    and btw: i like your haircut,

    i´m not worried about anything you may get sewn on *G*

  • Thanks everybody! it's good to be back :)

  • Cashcrandle - thanks for the first part of your comment. As to the rest, my hair is pretty irrelevant don't you think? no need to be so crude either.. geez.. b'sides, my hair's super long, it's just pulled back and the camera angle is weird. simmer down.

  • c'mon haven't you realized america is about looks and not talent these days

  • damn, my Canadian heritage foils me again.. I need to get with the times. er.. the place.

  • ótimo, adoro você garota...

    beijos na bunda.

  • nice

  • dope

  • i love this song. you did it super like mark duper.

  • wow... well done! i luv ur voice! and i'm jealous of ur guitar skills too! ;)

  • dude. wowowowow.. i wonder if thom will ever see this.

  • ahh. i'm in love.

  • love it, your great(thanks)

  • nice job

  • this is one of my fav radiohead songs, and u did it very well. VERY VERY well.
