:O <--my mouth was legit hanging open when I heard him singing this. first thought: THE PROCLAIMERS! second thought: HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER! :D third thought: OMG HE'S SINGING ONE OF MY FAVORITE SONGS! AHHHH <3 LOVEEE IT!
AHHH!!!!!!!!!! I heard this song a million times, and I happened to be a new fan of his, I swear to god I just had a heart attack because he wrote this song <3
wow i love vocaloids and i heard miku sing this first then i feel in love with alexander rybak and when i saw this i almost died of happiness. its so much easier to understand what he is saying then it was with miku.
I was stoked when i saw this. I thought he might've done a Hooters covers, but then i was disappointed. Then i listened to this a few times and it's pretty good after all :D
Niemand ist es würdig dieses lied zu covern... NIEMAND ! Wäre diese version als Titelsong zu dem fantastischen Film "Benny und Joon" benutzt worden hätte Johnny Depp sich erschossen. Und jetzt kommen 5000 12 jährige Mädchen und heulen über diesen Kommentar und erzählen mir wie süß diese die überbeaugenbraute version des zac efron doch ist...
@Sierra7137 Leave the poor kid alone asshat... I could fuck his ass and choke his throat by overpowering him to but you don't see me threatening over the interweb, so go walk 500 miles and suck dem nuts.
Have Some decentcy!!! didnt u say that u were only in the ninth grade!? If I were ur parents id beat ya till u couldnt walk geez there could be some younger eyes on this sight!
@Dandush82 I would ride my bike 5000KMs for THAT Girl, THE RIGHT GIRL, the girl that would make me go beyond material life, into spiritual, making me immortal.
@commodore256 with "still legal" I meant that no one has to get worked up over the fact that this is not an original song by him, and I must say the legal ramifications are rather interesting
I love Rybak but this is not by him it's by the proclaimers he made it seem as if it was him who had wrote it... Ah who cares! Whooooo it sounds great!
When I saw the title I was like... no chance... it's not the song from the Proclaimers... it's NOT... and than I'm listening to it... aha... it's the Proclaimers song XD
This song just made folding my laundry more bearable :) I wish there was an automatic replay button.

@notpointed Covers have always been legal, you just have to get permission to do them.
Often times, the copyright holders say "sure, you can do a cover, just give us some money and sign a contract".
You don't agree to the copyright holder's rules, it's not legal.
