emma (alkaline trio acoustic cover)

[MrWeak1212]

after 40 seconds i was sure that he is german...cause i m german too and i m ashamed, cause our accent is horrible :D  anyway, good cover!!

[tomilivesey]

@MrWeak1212  haha love it :P

[cr0ssica]

Sounds like Blue In The Face with Emma lyrics...strange.

[cr0ssica]

@cr0ssica am I the first person to think this? What the heck.

[Phil0ph0bic]

..Lol. Good one.

[crouchycostello]

Simply class!

[fatchuckyd]

well done cover 

[chrissie2127]

Haha, love the end chord x'D

Great cover though! :D

[ShartimusPrime]

Great stuff man, sounded really dope!

[roydagger]

This song, for me, brings back memories of rainy nights in 2006,

Drinking at Simons-before I had my own computer.

I really dug this version.

Guess I still do.

[fenixkid626]

I like Dan's voice for this song. This guy just doesn't have the sound for an Alkaline trio song sorry man but nice try

[LittleMissFuckingEmo]

I love this song

[BVisionProductions]

...it's a very Irish-sounding take on the song. Great though!

[TolaczekJP]

hahaha :)) good ;]

[dbreck]

tools. sorry, rules. hats off to you.

[thunderboltphil]

Not bad at all, bit slow and personally I think you could speed up the vocals a bit, but other than that spot on!

[xXCRY1NGintheRAINXx]

your wonderful,and im sad to say but i love your version way more then the original

[Madseason3]

personally, i like this better than the origional. Not saying i didn't love the orgional.

[deathjesters87]

I think a lot of people with negative comments are coming at this thinking you are going for the exact sound of Alk3. Regardless, good shit guys. Keep em coming. ;)

...........see what i did there? haha

[Wikipunani]

Someone shoot me a note with a good acoustic cover of Time to Waste pls. One with talent AND clear English :D

[itsOK2useTongues]

never, EVER, delete this video!

[SaraSykesDotCom]

for real..i agree with them, please dont delete this ever! its in my favorites haha :)

[mihai311]

Alkaline Trio is one of the greatest bands that ever walked on earth and this cover is really good!

[itsOK2useTongues]

[alkalinetriobabe]

Wicked cover of such a gorgeous song!

[LordElend]

[Burntoastfilms]

[redashea1]

this video is better than the original imo

[bane44]

...not ;)

[kranshor]

I have to agree, this is many times better than the original.. This is better than the original and AK's acoustic version, tbh ;)

[ironnica]

irish by any chance? haha

[PatrickTheHattrick92]

awesomeness

[daassoon]

BEST EVER!

[synergy1080]

this is honestly the best trio cover out there

[gennygyra18]

was this song dedicated to Emma Watson?

[Alkalinetime]

Phillip

[quetzacle]

awesome arrangement.. but sounds lot like pop shit, work on hard

[commanderjrk]

This is really great guys. Much props for a cover the captures the feeling of a great song.

[Laurenownsyourface]

[RedBlocks]

good, good, good :)

[54spiritedwill54]

Great video. Loved it.

[EmmaSouthard]

wow i luv this song. mostly because my name is emma, but i like it because it's poetic in a way.

[zombiecag]

Singer looks a bit like Christian Bale.. spooky.

[bane44]

thats the best comment i received in recent times! :D

[rollinwiththepunches]

you should invest in some vocal pitching software

[irishfantastic]

Nice job, the higher tempo version is better tho, but this a good wedding song!!

[SharkUte]

A little bit too slow but in fact it's really good, I love it ;).

[Rockstar8633]

REAL GOOD!!!

[Cre4tecrate]

You guys rock :')

[punkyr0o]

[gregsreallycool]

[Oskimon]

[wristwatchrecords]

I would pay you to kill yourself, you are simply the worst kind of person.

[serher]

-mr. skiba

[misshallwang]

just cool! can you tell me? why are the best bands from sweden!!?? :) do you have something like a creativity medicine up there, or what? :))

[jontemx]

beautiful!!!

a bit of constructive critisism: work on your english. this sounds very swedish ;)

[xkatxbunnyx]

thier english is perfect what are you on about?

[0feelings]

nice work but you need a pop filter in front of your mic

[jrodd321]

Great video. Loved it.

Check out my cover of it!

[vandivaart]

Sehr gut gemacht respekt aus hamburg

[EmmaWBiggestFan]

[xsystemofadown23x]

[DKAR1234]

Hey Emma!!! I hope we can meet someday! ;D

[blubber714]

hey! XD

[mickneverreallydied]

pretty good, i like the changes but i think it sounds better in 4/4 time signature.

[AustinAndMe]

A barely ever leave comments on videos, but wow... Truly amazing.

[AustinAndMe]

I barely ever*

[alkalinextrioxconz]

beautiful song. beautiful cover, too.

[bebop845]

Emma is my name and this song haunts me. creepy. >.>

[bertality]

sounds like some shitty irish folk cover of it. creeps me ou, dont like it.sry guys :P

[ninjarichie]

guys im not sure if this is better than Alk3's version.

brilliant - i look forward to more

[aine1039]

wow, that was excellent

[noisebleed1980]

This is one of my favorite songs! Thanks for the kick ass cover!

[bowlingfornoodles]

fairplay im a big alkaline trio fan and that was a great cover

[Phaseonegraph]

DUDE!!!! I didn't know Josh Groban was and Alkaline Trio Fan!!!!

[ansgarfalke]

better than the original

[Keeger75]

That was crazy good...loved it.

Where you from? Sound irish or english...

[bane44]

german, actually :D but i take that as a compliment.

[mAttthhheaLy]

that's a pretty brilliant cover... my only advice would be to try and vary the vocal rhythms... there are notes that feel they're held on too long, but aside from that... amazing :D

[xxxjaviercitoxxx]

OOOOOOH its so great cover , it makes me cry :(

[lawrencetrio]

a great great cover

[Ryzic]

I really thought the change in time signature was interesting. Everyone mentions the pop filters, and that is a good suggestion, although the pops aren't terribly intrusive. I've been becoming a fan of some of trio's slower stuff, and this is an interesting take on one of my favorite songs. Good show!

[kittenspedro]

Well done! A good take on one of my favourite songs!

[siriusb22]

A lovely version of a lovely song

[danthemjfan23]

you guys should get a pop filter for your microphones.

other than that, i thought it was really good. i like when covers sound like the original song, but have their own style at the same time. this definitely did both.

[jrodfitz]

too slow ... too poppy ... fantastic guitars ... but not alkaline-ish at all ... more like oasis?

[kittenspedro]

That's the difference between a cover, and "playing someone else's song"... if you want it to sound exactly like Alkaline Trio, why not just listen to the original?

[Keeger75]

Do you even listin to alkaline trio?

How the hell does this sound like them? Maybe this has the same sound as like...the song good fucking bye, but that is just Matt Skiba, it isnt even alkaline trio .

This is nothing like Alkaline trio

[skitnerdig]

"emma (alkaline trio acoustic COVER)"

[wouterke3003]

Can we download it somewhere?

It would be lovely...

[uberhippie666]

whoooooo im emma this is well good!

[drunkened0emo0asain]

nice man. i liked it. guitar sounds pretty sweet.

[alk3girl666]

great cover! trio would be proud.

nice shirr=t btw! : P

[GrishaX]

great cover!

[Imsocool1004]

great job

[LawrenceArms]

The lead in the beginning sounds like good fucking bye

[jadda9181]

Wow very good, i dont usually like covers but this is goood! welldone! :D

[Shakeandbakejake07]

loved this so much. My friend is engaged to someone named Emma.

[WalkingDisaster56]

my friend was called Emma but she died a couple years ago :(

[pooriagirl]

loved it...

[nrlsky]

I like this version better than alkaline trio's acoustic live version. The guitar sounds much better in my opinion.

[mikeymon87]

nice cover

[randomrachael]

i want to be called emma dammit :/

[lizhull]

Alkaline Trio happens to be my favorite band, and incidentally this is my favorite song. I would naturally be overly critical of the song because of that, however, I thought this version was very beautiful. Very well done.

[kodosatdi]

sounds like weird all with the original lyrics

[erikone10]

Now this one I can actually play.... and more importantly follow the lyrics

[emomarius]

gefällt mir sehr gut!

was für equipment hast du benutzt?

[bane44]

mittelklasse stage mic..sennheiser soundso, ne takamine eg 530, nen computer und n paar kabel. und noch irgendein billiges keyboard.

[ItWasChaos]

awesome, loved the whole thing

[denbrechtinator]

Damn i really like this!!!!

[piggyakaben]

Very good, very different from A3 version too. The only thing I would say is your singing is a bit off key at the start. Otherwise, very good!

[emma0686]

i love it... i'm emma too... really nice videoooo woww

[drummerfreak909]

very good. i like how you added your own twist to the song. :)

[kranshor]

Mate could you do me a favour and post me the tab for this please? My band love this song and would like to play it as a warm up thing :) I can't get hold of a good tab so far, thanks if you can :)

[alxs72]

totalmente gay

[bane44]

thank all of you guys so much. the pure fact that people actually listen to our crap yet means a lot to us. and being lauded for that shitty singing is something we never expected, really a big THANK YOU!

[jt1337]

Beautiful cover, does this great song justice.

[THATxTALLxGUYxLARS]

wow. i have never seen someone cover alkaline trio better than you guys. nice job

[Emilestar]

I love this cover... made all the better by the fact that my name is Emma! x

[xXXxeyecandyxXXx]

ha ha im emma 2

=]

[lizhull]

I think this is a beautiful cover, and Alk3 is my most favorite band, ever.

[kranshor]

This is so awesome. Well done! 11 / 10..

FAVOURITEDEDz0rz

[ToothPicksInMyEyes]

An Amazing cover, nice one.

[satanreigns]

some people are sooo damn stupid. this is excellent. the 6/8 feel is cooler than 4/4 imo, and great voices, nailed the vocal harmony. good stuff!

[emericask8xx]

to slow haha but good job

[terdlog04]

its a cover who cares it sounds good

[ProfessionalKnifeMan]

well that was kinda....beutiful. Love from your now british friends x

[HappyLittleSquirrel6]

What's your band name?

[wombportals]

that was good

[mycodenameisstu]

MRDRB you are the dipshit.

[nonnynay]

i think its intended (i don't know i think before any arse tries to tell me i don't know) to be 6/8 time. you can hear the guitar playing 123, but, having tried, it is possible to count 6/8 in 4/4, i like it though, good to see you've put your own minds in

[lokn45]

at first i didnt really like it, and just thought it would sound a lot better in the right time. but i dont know.. by the end i was really liking it slower. especially the chorus. good job for making me change my mind, haha. :)

[diadoraz10]

Hey where in Germany you from? I live in Stuttgart, trying to find a place to jam out and write some stuff.

[bane44]

uhm, stuttgart...thats quite far away from my residence.

[wizdumb]

Alkaline Trio covers, I mean

[wizdumb]

cool make som more

[Domebuddy]

Win

[bane44]

actually the vocals are far from being amazing (but im very grateful anyway :D ) and unfortunately we dont have any own tunes. also since my fellow "band"member resides in auckland nz (which is quite far away from good ol germany) its unlikely that there will be songs at any time soon.

[johnnyrubba]

Beautiful. Can we have more please? This is fantastic.

[fishguts69]

hmmm good job guys, you for sure mastered acoustic, made it sound really good

[ArbitraryImposition]

I enjoyed this lots :)

[theAVERY]

wrong time signature. you're playing it in 6/8 and the song is in 4/4, but you did a good job tying it into 6/8, so no problem! overall good job!

[MRDRB]

its still in 4/4  jus played slower nice job but i prefere it faster love the chorus

[dogger6253]

Song is not in 4/4... check your tempo... 1-2-3 1-2-3

[MRDRB]

its in 4/4 1--2--3--4  count it slower dip shit

[dogger6253]

In that theory you can count practically any song in 4/4...or in 6/8 if you count faster. It's about finding rhythm. The original is in 4/4. This one is in 6/8. That explains why this song sounds so fresh.

[kranshor]

Agreed.

[notdoc]

Nice =D

[alkalinextrioxconz]

you did that pretty good. i think that you oculd try it faster though, as it's a bit faster opn the album. anyways, keep up the good work!!!

XD

[Yannick2007]

Yeah, great song!!

A L K A L I N E T R I O

[sumek182]

Respect Boys :D

[Alkalinegirl1991]

I really like this. Good job, boys!

[eoint02]

thats great, u neglected to tell us who u are though.

u sound irish too, am i right?

[alkalinemuse]

Love the harmonies. You actually made this song sound sound Irish. *thumbs up*

[BeachDewd]

would you mind posting tabs for the added solo parts? I Love what you guys did and would really love to learn that part of your cover.

[victol]

really really good :D

[LawrenceArms]

Dude...in some parts the way you played sounded slightly like 97...cool though

[LawrenceArms]

Speed her up, bro.

[skatephaseii]

wow, its not that poppy, good attempt, but idk add some scratch and grunge to your voice plz

[bane44]

theres no need to deteriorate the vocals...they can´t get worse anyway (but maybe we could cover up some insufficiency in singing skills, good point)

[rparungao]

I really liked it

[luckysmokerings]

this is good! :D

[tomangel321]

awsome dude i am from australia in a band called flight for 66 urse guy are awsome

[FagNasty]

damn good cover, guys. the video was kinda gay at parts. would have made me much more happier if it would have stayed like the intro to it. what with the creepiness and all. but great job on the actual song.

[bane44]

the video was kinda gay at parts.

- you´re kinda right at parts.

[heathg2012]

I thought ya'll were playing Blue in the Face at first.

Don't try and play perhaps the best song off of Good Mourning for a first time either. Not bad still though.

[redflux]

you have big shoes to fill trying to cover a song like this.

[karpuzsaci]

not a bad cover..

it could be a nice clip if you wouldn't made it like "we are such cute emokids"

[bane44]

uhm...emokids? i dunno... satire?
