I really love this but it really irritated me that Barrie often sounded like he didnt knew for sure how to sing it. Maybe it was changed on purpose but it irritated me^^!
@chaos850 My friend Brett actually can sing this song amazingly..he has sent a voice recording...is just too afraid to post videos. Look him up on facebook. His name is Mr Mac
HAHAHA oh the irony!!!!!!!! a 1st year in a high school where i live oddly brought a WWI hand grenade into his school today for a history project so the bomb squad was called and the school was evacuated! and now ther is a facebook groups saying "the wee boy in first year that took Bruno Mars' song Grenade too far"LOL
At first I was uncertain if I wanted to click on this video. To me, this is one of those songs that if not performed to immaculate conditions it is utterly ruined. Praise the lord that I was unwarranted for my concerns! You guys did an outstanding job with the vocals, percussion, guitar and piano! Much better than my feeble attempts at it :D
Thank you for blessing us with your unbound talents ortoPilot and Barrie!
I really like the original song and in my opinion no one can make it better.. - I thought until now... But now I'm not sure anymore.. your version of this songs is amazing, I like it a lot. I enjoy to hear to your voice and your version. :-) thumps up!
First of all i want to say thank you for the great work you do.
I'm looking forward to every new video of yours, and I get never disappointed.
Just had to create an account to follow you.
Every single cover you make has its own ortostyle, and each time for me your style adds the missing piece to most songs I woulnd't hear more often in the original way. Through your talent you are creating something new without losing the song. Just amazing (Barrie, too=). Please keep on. Thanks
Ortopilot and Barrie Walker, my god you men are fantastic! My boyfriend linked this to me on monday, it actually is one of the most beautiful covers I have ever heard, and in my opinion, much better than the original. Keep up the good work :) xxx<3
Hey, I know you definitely get a lot of requests for songs to cover so I have a solution to that, you should set up your moderator module and maybe cover the top rated request each month. Just an idea, Thumbs up so he would maybe actually do this?
If I didn't have to compare with original, I would say this cover is simply amazing. Now back to the reality: compared with original,.. I still like this version more :-) Possibly because it's different, not trying to copy & even technically perfect. Great voices & music, awesome quality and arangement.
There might be just one thing I would change for this specific cover : (Cover by Barrie Walker ft. ortoPilot) :-)
It's a real pleasure to hear both Matt&Barrie in one great song!!
I absolutely adore your newer videos like this one - the production value is really high, you can tell you have put a lot of time and effort in, particularly the lighting effect on the guitar solo. It makes it not only a great song to listen to, but also enjoyable to watch. :-)
Im sorry, but I already klicked "Like" after the first 5 seconds of the video, because I couldnt wait longer... I hope thats okay ;) Keep being so awesome
i really really enjoyed this one, i like the original but i prefer this versioin, to be honest i would like to see it covered with just you as well maybe not feat anyone else. I really like this one =]
Nobody seems to be able to cover this song well, in my experience. I've heard several artists that I hold in high regard who consistently produce amazing content, but I've yet to hear a rendition of Grenade better than the original. That's not to say these guys suck; on the contrary, they are awesome, Bruno is just better (for this song, at least).
@chaos850 cheers for the comment :) totally agree with ya. for the record i've never aimed to make a song better than the original. i just like puttin my own spin on them
@ortoPilot I've just found you on youtube about an hour ago and personally i like this better than the original ,and thats because i hate just hate when people do covers of any band i love all originals, but you sing amazing there is something about your voice and the way the music is played that makes this song so calm
Your version is...I don't know...better? I don't even think comparing them is the point, like you mentioned, but your version FEELS better to me....a lot. It's more organic, both the way the voices interpret the melody as well as the fact that you're using acoustic instruments and this really does feel like a LIVE performance with the right emotion. Great job!
@chaos850 Have you heard the version that A Lion Named Roar did? It's posted here on Youtube. Might not really be better either but it's definitely pretty darn solid. :D
@olepotti see, the thing is that all these artists don't seem to convey the same amount of emotion that Bruno shows in his rendition. they are singing well, but that's it, they're just singing.
@chaos850 the link I put in my comment.. that Asian guy.. that is even a bigger amount of emotions.. but i bet you will stick by your statement since you are a supercilious wanker. there is no way you can tell that boy does not cover that song well.. stfu and you are already changing your words man.. show some integrity and stick with your statements or not even bother to come with that crap at all..
@olepotti I disagree. I suppose it could all be chalked up to subjectiveness, though. So if I stick by my statement, I'm a wanker, but if I change my words I have no integrity? And I didn't say the song wasn't covered well, I was merely commenting that I preferred Bruno's original to these covers.
@chaos850 take a look back to your first sentence in the comment above... you did say that no one seemed to be able to cover this song well.. well you were wrong.. and yes you did matter of fact change your opinions during the next comments so stfu wth
@olepotti Well, will you look at that. My mistake. I apologize. I made the comment 3 months ago, and wasn't able to recall all the details. My main point was that none of these covers seem to be able to do better than Bruno and I stand by that.
You are so good. You have changed and add so many new dimensions to a simple song. Starting from the singing to the instruments then the video. This is just amazing and very enjoyable to watch.
ok. 2 years ago orto blew me away with his don't look back in anger cover. today, orto blows me away with the professionalism of this. it's unreal. supreme kudos
This cover is pretty sweet, kind of chilled out. The bass lines are fantastic. The vocals are good and clean. AND, mmm, the guitar solo is so smooth. I like it.
Check out A Lion Named Roar's cover. They do a good one also just a little bit more aggressive.
