Yeah, this is actually pretty damn good. It keeps the emotional resonance of the original that other covers (like that bland Dashboard Confessional one) lack.
I like that you kept the going up a note part in that last 'When I was down'-part, which the Weezer original didn't have, but the Weezer acoustic version did (which, by the way, is one of the best versions of any song, by any band, ever, acoustic or otherwise).
The smiling at 1:46 - 1:52 was sweet. I could sense how special the performance was becoming. By the bridge, I was all about this song and singing along.
Also, the bongo player KILLED in this song. Y'all pretty much nailed it. Kudos!
Gonna check out "Only In Dreams" now. Keep rockin'.
P.S. "Red Album" sucks? Man, harsh! I'm just sayin' that it was OK album, and after "Make Believe". . . hell, I'll take "Red" anyday! "Make Believe" was SOOOOOOO terrible. . .
@gringo11111 the smiling at that part was because he thought he didn't hit the right note (i didnt actually hear anything wrong), and he was laughing and shaking his head because he thought he screwed up. i've been there many times.... lol.
A few hot guys, some instruments, and potential. You've got something here. But, maybe I can recommend a girl to sing with you guys? I think some feminine vocals would go great. Or not. Whatever floats your boat. ~
Anywho, great cover, love the lamp in the middle thingery. Gives off a nice vibe. Hahaa, and how can I not say this - amazing song choice. :D
it's so funny you say that - we actually have a permanent female vocalist now too named amy. she's in a couple of videos on the channel already, check out "birds and ships" and "your control" and thank you for your great comment
keep ut the good work!^_^ nice work! i love your work! nice song and nice voice! when i watching first of all I want to see if they are energetic! as you are! nice job!
This is an amazing cover but man the Red Album is amazing.All their albums are amazing. MY favorite weezer albums are probally Pinkerton/Maladroit. My least favorite is probally make believe but their all awesome.

Methinks you did Weezer proud.
