@Jackhayes123 he probably had a sore throat, there's another video where they sing 'Believe in Yourself' and at the beginning they say Charlie won't b lending us his vocals and then Charlie holds his throat:P by the way, sorry if this makes out that I'm an illiterate moron, I jus woke up:L
Tom's like a neon explosion; the bright pink beanie and the blue shirt and OMG the hair <3. I can't forget the blue shoelaces ;) <3 Huge Fan-girl... <3
@SaltyTestes I noticed that too! I think he might be a very interesting person to know but whenever he appears in Alex's videos for example he looks so serious or sad. That's weird! He's still brilliant in his own videos though.
@123Brieeee He had a sore throat. :( Don't worry, they would never let him (or anyone) just sit out of a song on purpose if there wasn't a reason. :) (from what I can tell from watching their videos, will they seem really cool and awesome and nice.)
I agree! These guys are good singers. I don't like the guy with blue hair, but it is a catchy song. I only heard of this song once I heard the studio version and then looked it up. But the studio version was so good I had thought they had written it! And yes singing live obvs won't ever sound the same.
@SuperQweertyuiop Not to burst your bubble, but I actually took the time to listen to your link, and that was a song that I really didn't like. It's just too mellow for me and I don't think it's catchy. So guess what! There is something called 'taste'... Besides which, is it really fair to compare a studio version song (which could have been tweaked like crazy) with this song which is a live version. Try listening to the studio version of this song and notice the differences.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I was hoping the first song I heard would be terrible as a joke. This one's shit too. Seriously, what's the appeal here, other than a bunch of off-key pseudo-hipsters singing songs with tacky lyrics and chord progressions so simple and overused that even a monkey could do it?
@SuperQweertyuiop You're being pathetic. Go find something better to do than criticize these guys for doing something that they enjoy. If you don't like it, don't listen - It's really that easy.
@sashafacefisted I saw these guys on the sidebar whilst listening to music. I clicked on it thinking 'Hey, I haven't heard of these guys before, maybe they'll be decent', listened to it, and hated it. Now you know how I got here. I'm entitled to my opinion, and I must say, in my opinion this is very disappointing 'music'. The comments section is for everyone - Not just for people who enjoy this stuff, but also for people who just happen across it.
@SuperQweertyuiop I understand that you are entitled to your opinions, but dropping unnecessary, rude comments about an artist is uncalled for. It would be one thing if you were providing constructive criticism, but comparing them to monkeys and calling them "off-key pseudo-hipsters" isn't constructive at all. It's just insulting. I could really care less about how you got here - it does not justify being blatantly rude and immature.
@sashafacefisted It was constructive criticism. If you read the subtext, you'd see that I constructively criticised them for trying so hard to be cool, and suggested they try to be more original.
@SuperQweertyuiop Using insulting names is not constructive, just offensive. Period. You obviously don't know anything about any of these guys otherwise you would know that these guys started this band as a hobby, not as a means of making themselves look cool. And frankly, before you go insulting their music-making prowess, I would love to see you try to do anything better.
@sashafacefisted That is such an immature response. Did I claim to be a professional musician? No. Am I making a ton of money off of mediocre music? No. These guys are. I fail to see what the appeal is; they aren't great technically, the rhythm isn't catchy and the singing falls flat. What is it you like about them so much?
@christinekuli7 News flash - The universal norm is that Justin Bieber is the best thing since sliced bread. Clearly, the universal norm has got it wrong.
@SuperQweertyuiop Sons of admiral isn't the univarsal norm by any stretch, so I'm failing to understand what point you're trying to make here. Even though Justin Bieber is mainstream, doesn't mean all mainstream music is bad though.
@christinekuli7 My point was that your comment assumed that your opinion is the universal norm. Regardless of weather or not that was your intention, that is how it came across.
@SuperQweertyuiop Lol, how can that be your point when I said: "your taste in music isn't the univarsal norm of what good music is". How did you manage to take that and assume I meant *my* personal opinion is the universal norm?
Everyone's saying how Charlie seems grumpy, and I mean, of course he would be. It's so frustrating to not be able to sing, especially so considering he's a musician and all
Next generation REM? Fantastic group, just proves people that the music of the 60s bears visiting over and over again. Many young folks are finding those treasures are just waiting to expose their talent as this group has. Great post.
@pbjellybeanful They're all still friends, though! Alex, Charlie, and Ed are in a band together called Chameleon Circuit along with two other cool people, and Tom and Ed still live together and make music with each other all the time :)
i love that they sound like they do in the music video, and i tunes version..............finally good singers who don't need autotune (:....and aw poor charlie he looks sad ):
