  • can you PLEASE make this available for download? Hell, I'll buy it. I love this song and you guys sound amazing!

  • @teddygeigerstoohott message me.

  • I am amazed that this is a high school. The only cover i've heard of this is On The Rocks. This is great!

  • @arrowood13 The MadHatters do a good cover also. But these guys rock at it too!

  • @arrowood13 Thanks!

  • Dear Ow!,

    Finally, a recording of this song that doesn't suck.

    Sincerely,

    An A Cappella Sound Engineer

  • Is there anyway I can get my hands on the sheet music for this. This is a beautiful arrangement and I would love to perform it with my buds at school someday.

  • is there sheet music for this arrangement?

  • Mate, I would love to get an mp3 of this. Can you post one somewhere? I would happily buy on iTunes.

  • amazinggg!! :)

  • is this in F rather than G?

  • Absolutely love this!

  • This is so good! I come back to it at least once a week to listen to it. :] Great job!

  • I swear ,after 7 times of hitting replay, Im still not tired of it :), awestruck...amazing

  • The men of Green High's vocal ensemble and I did this last year, and I have never been able to get this out of my head since. This is probably one of the best songs and recordings I've ever heard in my entire life, and I've heard a lot, and I like most artists out there nowadays. Seriously, this right here, is true music, and the two ppl that disliked it are probably going to hell, disliking this song should be a sin.

  • @KKev16 yes

  • damn are you guys fantastic!!

  • TONAY!!!

  • This is the most beautiful version I've heard. I cannot believe you guys are in high school! These harmonies are incredible, I get chills every time I listen.

  • Personally, I think you guys can make a living off this, you guys are the best acapella group I have seen in a while.

  • Seriously release an MP3

  • In the nearly two years I've been listening to a capella groups, I've heard more versions of this song than you can shake a stick at: colleges, professionals, etc. but this is far and away still the best. Awesome.

  • this is beautiful and i'm so inspired! look out for choreography to this soon! =)

    love love love!

  • I only wanted to hear the Glenbrook version of this song---I fell in love when the group from 2001 or so did it. You guys are better than Straight No Chaser!

  • GBN, good work boys!

  • who couldnt like this?

  • And also, I love the bass part from 1:09-1:24, very original.

  • I love this version it's so amazing, and thyre just in high school. Where can I get sheet music for this?

  • not to be a hater, cause i like it, but i can hear all the vocal affecting youre doing in this studio version, so the people who say its amazing kinda bug me cause its not entirely real

  • This is the most amazing version of this song and the recording is fantastic.....I would really like to do this song with a few of my friends someday. AWESOME job!

  • This is crazy awesome! First heard it when the a cappella group in my school sang it, but this is amazing! Can you message me when the mp3 is out?

  • the vocal skills are impeccable <3

  • it sounds like a higher version of straight no chaser

  • God damn guys. Excellent arrangement. I absolutely love it. I love the bridge part starting at 2:07. Friggen beautiful.

  • wow! you guys are AMAZING!

  • dam they killed this

  • our college acappella group this!!! they were sooo good!! you guys r awsome like better than them hahah!!! !

  • I'm a sophomore, and I'm going to do this song, but I doubt it'll sound as amazing as this!! And you guys are a higschool group? By what it sounds like, you guys need a recording label!!

  • amazing! i've listened to this so much!

  • Wow this is one of the best versions i have heard. I really want to do this for my High School Ensemble but i don't have the skills to write sheet music for it. is there any way i can get it from you guys?

  • Ben is so incredible!

  • This is fantastic, one of the best renditions of this song I've heard.

  • hey i think you guys are right here near lombard, right?  i loved SNCs insomniac but yours is just as good!

  • yeah they r kinda. I mean they r both in the chicago land area... their from Glenbrook North High School, located in Northbrook. They just came out with this years cd, sounds great but i still think insomniac is there best.

  • really great cover!!! Compares to my favorite rendition by UVM Top Cats.

  • this is the best cover ive heard on youtube. its tied with SNC id say

  • Amazing Sound. This is on par if not better than Straight No Chaser's version of this. Good job!

  • u guys rock!

  • nice song, and nice blending.. you totally rock it.. the balance no one is loud and soft you can actually every voice, the harmony of it is the best! keep it

  • i go to school with these guys and they do insomniac better this year. and its only 7 guys ... it was 6 last year.

  • wow that was good, did you come up with that 6 part harmony? because it was originally done with only 2 guys from Billy Pilgrim and in a couple parts Emily Saliers.

  • unreal....great job

  • wow this is great!

    i love it :)

  • I`m looking for volunteers to send me this mp3 please...much obliged. Answers on a postcard to me if you please! :o)

    Seriously though, if anyone has it, i`d be keen...

  • amazing! i can't stop listening to this!

  • will you guys be berforming at the glennbrook north HS choir concert on may 14???? (in illinois, right?) cuz then im going!!!!

  • Hey I'm in this year's Ow!. We're not performing on may 14th, but June 6th is our year's end concert.

  • This is really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really really good

  • you guys are excellent is this Glenbrook north Illinois?? but seriously keep it up if u pump out tracks like this you guys got a future and i like same of the harmonies that are not in the original version that you threw in very nice

  • Chord at 3:10 is so amazing. I'm in love with this groups version, and would love to hear how they sound live on it.

  • Wow, these guys are absolutely phenomenal for high schoolers! This is better than most college groups' renditions of this song.

  • good job tony!

  • you know, after listening to alot of the college versions on youtube, i gotta give these guys credit. they are very good for highschool. still not the best i've heard, but i hope they stay together cause they will be very good.

  • what was the best that you heard?

  • i've heard a few amazing college groups cover it. these guys are really good for high school tho.

  • everything sounds pretty good, but the soloist could be a little stronger. if these guys keep singing together, they can been fantastic though.

  • <3<3<3

  • AHHHHHH I LOVE IT!!! GORGEOUS!!!

  • fantastic i have the cd from school

  • Do you have sheet music from this? This is one of the best recordings I've heard of Insomniac.

  • Thank you, and actually I am working on arranging it. Unfortunately I am very busy with school, so it is taking me some time.. I will let you know when I am done. Keep watching for new vids!

  • @tony41610 dude can i get updated on that? did u make that arrangement?

  • @CWalsh0923 haha, Chris, is this you? I was listening to this and was reading the comments and this was here.

    -jafar

  • Insomniac is my favorite acapella song and you guys version rates right up there.  Very strong version, fairly basic, but right on!

  • Tony, and OW! Outstanding sound!! Do you guys have a CD out or an MP3 of "Taken Up"? You guys are GOOD - fame & fortune awaits!

  • This is awesome.. is there anywhere where I can download this as an mp3? Also, who did you use to produce you guys? It sounds really professional.

  • I am working on uploading an mp3, and I will let you know when that is available.

    Our producer actually was in the group with us a few years ago. He is now the singer in a band 'South Jordan'. Check them out on youtube.

    I will try to message you when the mp3 is ready
