[Kidorid]

This is the ultimate feel-good song! I've woken up to this song for 4 months now, and i'm not sick of it yet. It makes my day, and it's better than the original!

[Iservejusticenoob]

Isaac in 1080p!!!!!

[inferedlovee]

[JayDelaCruz3]

[maolieksvids]

Holy crap, it's good.

[MikeMcMikeable]

The original is a piece of shit compared to this!

[JakeSmithTelevision]

You are incredibly talented. I can't wait to see you as a huge star! Every song you make is fresh and unique. Keep it up!

[lambhunter0]

I subscribed to you when i was already subscribed, so that i can watch your videos while im watching them, because youre that awesome

[SimonsIsaac]

@lambhunter0 Your redundancy is the greatest flattery. Your redundancy is the greatest flattery.

Thathanknk yyoouu.

[EpicLiquidNinjaMcD]

This guy blows me away!

[souzaisaac14]

WOW!

[123puta3]

PREVIŠE KREŠTI FRAER!

[JakeTheFakeReal]

This should be the Futurama theme. He says New New York.

[CukeStain]

You can't just be singing 'bout new york. Get you're ass down here bro. You're seriously one of the most talented people I've ever heard.

[MrLOLVideo]

Dear jesus......that blew me away

How do you not have a record deal?!

If you don't get one soon this world has problems...

[SimonsIsaac]

@MrLOLVideo It took this to let you know that the world has problems? ...and yes. it does. hehe

[xtremegamer4696]

@SimonsIsaac So have you just not been discovered or are you trying to stay unsigned?

[13ulldogs]

Anyone know where i can get an album of all his covers?

[SimonsIsaac]

@13ulldogs Bandcamp . com , homie. Rock out.

[Torpedo1986]

@SimonsIsaac *checks it out because he wants the same album*

Nice music, all the way from Portugal, keep it going! :D

[rbann5]

Fuck Kassem G and his big ass nose, this is way better

[TheDarthFuhrer]

Subscribed that was kickass bro

[lilxmiget]

OMG is it me or is he gorgeous :O

[SimonsIsaac]

@lilxmiget No- it's just you.

[srhdel14]

Much better than the original one. I hope someday Jay z & Alicia Keys hears this and it blows their minds.

[SimonsIsaac]

@srhdel14 That would be quite badass.

[poitra10]

@1:24 Holy crap, How's you get Vin Diesel in your vid- oh shit... That's you.

P.S.

You're welcome.

[illestdesimc]

ewd

[zZMtnDogZz]

Good Job

[hewittdj1]

OMG, i though this was your original song. wow, you do it so much better. wow. wow.

[SimonsIsaac]

@hewittdj1 Jay-Z ripped me off, really.

[Jilljill506]

I was scared to watch this cover because I wasn't a fan of the original song. I'm glad I finally watched it. I loved it <3 :)

[SimonsIsaac]

@Jilljill506 Glad you took that leap of faith there. ;)

[srhdel14]

This version is way better than the first one :)



[cimark]

SUBBED!

[SimonsIsaac]

@cimark Hell yeah! Welcome aboard!

[tarhealfriend14]

@SimonsIsaac oh awesome. my bad i guess i should watch all the vids before asking you to do one. lol

[ZanyZakman]

I'm digging the ginger on the drums.

[CatoTheMatteMatikker]

70 819 views.. Why is it only showing my views?

[relle219]

though its sounds great, fucking excellent, some things just shouldn't be changed

[safclol]

you can only go from strength to strength isaac keep it up man!

[Crouchez]

I ACTUALLY UNDERSTAND THE LYRICS!

...yeah I know.

[SimonsIsaac]

@Crouchez Happy to be your interpreter.

[XxOSIRISCOMPLEXxX]

you made this song have meaning for me i mean yeah i can skate poorly and bike poorly and im not good at my course but some are made to make it and im gonna try harder and get places and thank you as one of the people that inpired me to get there

[SimonsIsaac]

@XxOSIRISCOMPLEXxX Go get it, dude.

[akk1028]

Dude,.... Dude. You're awesome! Don't you want to come over here to Portugal and sing a few tunes?

[SimonsIsaac]

@akk1028 Yes. Yes I do very much.

[dorianali1]

ur awsome dude and its really cool that u actually talk 2 ur fans ur very talented.

[SimonsIsaac]

@dorianali1 Many thanks!!

[penhockey101]

did you ever try out for american idol?

[SimonsIsaac]

@penhockey101 nope.

[shredtheuke]

you should check out my channel. I make ukulele and guitar videos. I have 1 video, but I'm planning on making a lot more

[olegario39]

you made this sound more like a early 1990s hit! and its better than the original

[freetaught]

Ok--the video totally sucked. I wasn't feeling any of it. Your New New York looks like a big national park or something. But the song was really cool. I totally dug the lyrics and the lead singer's voice (would've liked the "New Yorks" to be a bit more like the original though). Big ups for the excellent delivery of a well written cover song. I enjoyed this very much.

[SimonsIsaac]

@freetaught Thanks man. haha- looking back, I totally agree. It was one of the first vids we shot.

[AClikesicecream]

Sub-d. Really loving your music! Keep it up.

[Deniskurudimov]

this is seriously better than the original !!! GOOD LUCK MAN! i'll stick with u till famous day's :) dont forget "us" :)

[SimonsIsaac]

@Deniskurudimov I won't forget any of you, DennisPlural. Promise.

[Deniskurudimov]

@SimonsIsaac haha ok tnx :) i was sittin in church and singin ur version in my head the whole time :) FUN u have a great voice :) U DA BOSS!! :)

[CuriTheOrc]

Very good man, loving the music, I love what Kassem G does but I think you both should be getting his amount of views i really wish i could meet both of you one day to bad i'm way up in Canada

[SimonsIsaac]

@CuriTheOrc Canada ain't all that far... You never know...

[XpertCode]

Bro, U R EPIC :D Srsly man, you gotta start touring around the GLOBE :D and you kill on Ask Kassem ;)

[SimonsIsaac]

@XpertCode As soon as that jet I ordered arrived, I'll start my globe-trotting.

[BellaStarFly]

First time visiting your channel and I must say I'm glad I did. Your voice is amazing, can't wait to listen to some more!

[alexwoods12345]

do you know what I like about Isaac? He replies to viewer comments. Shows he cares about his fans.

[SimonsIsaac]

@alexwoods12345 I do care!! :)

[MrIbbe]

@SimonsIsaac IS there a chance you can do Tupac - Changes? :P

[NeLieLsCrazy]

Oh God! This was so unexpected ! I really love this cover. You're so talented.

(By the Way, Kassem brought me here :D )

[Mesxandxyous]

[CatoTheMatteMatikker]

Keep up the good work ;)

[SenorCosmo]

Jessi J reaches 2nd in the UK top 40 charts, yet this guy only has 50K views on youtube. That's why I hate mainstream music. Keep up the work bro and I'll keep trying to get as many as my friends to listen to your music as possible.

[SimonsIsaac]

@SenorCosmo So cool of you! Glad you're digging the music- numbers aren't everything if peeps like you are still finding my music somehow, eh?

[Moxon414]

@SenorCosmo eurhg mainstream mainstream mainstream shut it fag. great music though

[SenorCosmo]

@Moxon414 Wow, thanks for replying to my comment 1 month later with some hate. Ahh well, At least I get linked back to this epic song.

Much love Moron - oh sorry, Moxon*

[TINMAN9611]

GRAET SONG I LIKE THE WAY YOU DO THE VIDEO HOW DID YOU DO IT AND HOW LONG DID IT TAKE YOU TO DO IT I LIKED IT THANKS

[TindallAndrew]

Very good video, lip singing a bit out of time and a really different version of the song but over all i really like it

[trickshotchamps]

Love this song

[LJSomerville]

It should be Jay Z Covering this version! This version is so much better than Jay Z's, as all he does is say" Uh Huh, Uh Huh" In every Freaking song! Keep it up man and you should have his Record Label, Not him!

[annspade]

Nicccce! I dig the vibe. Video is fabulous. :)

[dasvid06]

OMG YOU'RE AN GOOD SINGER, BUT YOU FUCKED UP THE SONG SO BAD YOU SHOULD TAKE IT OFF!!!!!!!!

[DiamondValleyMusic]

@dasvid06 Dude its a different thing you dont hear all the time... dont hate... you aint no real critic or anything like it... Isaac KEEP IT UP... i liked it a lot bro...

THUMBS UP TO YOU FROM PUERTO RICO...

[vidwatchjo]

THUUUUUMBS up for a great cover of a great song

i just miss a female voice in there would be a nice addition (and i have to admit I love Alicia Keys` voice so my oppinion is defenetily biassed)

thumbs up and keep up the good work

[PetetheSweety]

Nice one, like the way you record, not that blurred sound the big Companies do in the studios.

[wazcro]

<3 the song. btw, what shoes are those?? (the red ones) thx!

[gord4tw]

i rarely sub or even comment but jesus christ, if id never heard of jay-z's version i would of thougth this is how this song was ment to be! Awesome cover

[kit2ng219]

[MrPatgchc]

[TeamProvoKD]

69 people do not have a taste in music !

[MarioTran12]

Can you make a downloadable version. Free or not ill do anything to get this song and i bet anyone else will do the same.

[SimonsIsaac]

@MarioTran12 It's on Bandcamp and iTunes right this very minute all lonely and waiting for you...

[KokoBananaMan]

I remember clicking this video a long time ago randomnly, but didn't feel like watching it. Now months later I find it again, actually watch it, love it, and subscribe to you lol Keep it up

[SimonsIsaac]

@KokoBananaMan Wow- that's crazy... Glad I caught you the second time around!

Great job man, Hope you get ur sponsor, and start producing ur own songs (Y)

[melissahergt]

sounds really good xD

[melissahergt]

The people in Germany love you =D

So, why aren't you here???

love♥ Melissa

[SimonsIsaac]

@melissahergt Thanks Melissa! Seems like I can only be at one place at one time (stupid physics), but if I had a clone, and he had a plane ticket, I'd send him on over- pronto. ...Actually, I take that back. I'd totally take the ticket for myself and leave him here to clean my apartment while we partied in Germany. Sound good?

[sk8rsurfermatt1995]

man your bass player is the most stylish guy. 2:09 he just looks like ths coolest guy. ur pretty cool to simon (Y). love your music.

[sk8rsurfermatt1995]

[blendless]

nice boxer, I'm glad that nobody decided going "Hand Me A Scalpel" on his cute little floppy ears

[truebit]

Wow, this is really amazing. does Isaac have an album ?

[SmootchiSmootchiMo]

To tell you the truth when jay-z came out with this song i hated it, i turned the radio off everytime i heard it, i dig the meaning but i think it sounded awful, but i really like your cover, to me its much better than jay-z

[stanescul1]

[stanescul1]
