  • Awesome job guys

  • the Bflat in hey there delilah could have been 1 & 2 & a 3 & or something like that. needs better hand work

  • You're using french grip (guy) and that should only be used on Timpani. Good job arranging though :)

  • good job

    and idk bout eveyone else

    but i can tell ur not verry... experienced

    keep workin on it tho!

    prity good!

  • ALTERNATE STICKING URRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR­RRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

  • @jasmine33runescape Thats exactly what i was thinking

  • The guy really needs to use his left hand a lot more often...

  • Some people can't chew gum and walk, but apparently she can while playing marimba.

  • das kagummikauen macht es einwenig kaputt^^

  • Not bad, but more wrist for the chick. also you should get more into playing, use your whole body to portray the music your playing. the audience will get more into it as well =)

    Keep it up! I'm looking forward to seeing more

  • sounds good, but that's gonna be better ^^

  • I want that gum...

  • This is wayyy better than the original version of this song.

  • :D :D :D

  • Wow our band isn't this good no offense to us!!! You guys rock marimbas are for life for me :)

  • Would you be willing to share notes for these? I play marimba/percussion as well and I absolutely love this song!

  • the president of the wrigley gum corporation made sure to NEVER show anybody in a gum commercial to be seen chewing gum because it looks so disgusting!

    if you have to rely on chewing gum to keep time, I'd suggest a metronome instead

  • horrible technique with the mallets and why is she chewing gum ? thats a percussion no no lol

  • where did you get the music?

  • I wAnt the notes!!! Can u give em to me

  • GAH TERRIBLE TECHNIQUE. Sorry T.T that's all I noticed the entire time

  • chewing gum?? wtf???

  • the dude on the left double stcks and triple sticks all the freaking time

  • im sorry.....but i have to say.....this girl is sooooooooooo BEAUTIFUL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! <33333333333

  • Nice

  • Someone doesn't like using their left hand

  • A lot of people are saying she's chewing gum. Chewing gum helps you keep timing real good and also while singing it keeps you moist

  • Comment removed

  • @devinslevin no its doesn't your a fucking idiot

  • @Rlax1000 You're calling me an idiot because chewing gum helps me, and a lot of other musicians keep time...Yeah I see where you're getting at. Oh and by the way it's "you're" not "your." Learn grammar, you fucking moron troll.

  • Y U CHEW GUM WHILE PLAYING MARIMBA

  • YOU'RE CHEWING GUM

  • I would give 5 internets to here the complete version with singing. I like the sound of this on the Marimba, it's nice. Add some Xylophone too, would be really nice (for some harmony)

    You guys are good.

  • Could you mail me the notes you played?? Thanks!

  • Would have been cool if the main melody put in a bit of a bouce, almost a swing, let the melody weave through and take a different course other than the simple beat - to take that feeling away of it all being stuck together - of being a very homophinic sound. Its cute though, would totally play this with my Duet buddy any time.

  • Thumbs up for Tessa!

    ElCabritoFresco You did good too,

    Tessa just Looks Better!

  • i'm in love in that right girl.

  • Whe you were doing the singon part.. You just did straight on quarter notes.. Why didnt you use dotted 8thnote 16th note? Or others? It would have sounded more like the song... =]]

  • awesome

  • Hey there Delilah what's it like in your v*g*n*? I'm a thousand miles away but I'd like to get inside ya Yes I do No girl can f*** as well as you I swear its true. Hey there Delilah don't you worry bout protection I'm even harder when you're lonely, take a look at my erection Close your eyes I wanna get between your thighs 'Till I'm inside Oooh I wish you would do me Wish you would screw me
  • I'm thinkin I found a new fun solo....good job guys, very fun! Alternate sticking...and your wrists are your friends, you'll thank all of us with those comments in the long run.

  • Ngh I've been looking for sheet music and a tutorial for this song but I can't find anything!! Btw you guys are very good :]

  • omg deb from napoleon dynamite

  • okay, first, she's chewing gum, that's a no no in band, second, the guy doesn't use natural sticking, and third, they need to play more, becouse it was good xD

  • I liked it :P

  • You've been putting off grandma for too long, I think it's bout time you VISITED grandma.

  • i watched this video 3 times because this chick 1:09 for u baby! LOL

  • @Drd4all Agreed. XD

  • To guy on the... left!: You have 2 hands. Use the second.

  • Good job. Just try alternating between notes more.

  • This would sound great as a Marimba duet with two four mallet players.

  • Can I have the Score, please!?

  • maybe some enthousiasm?

  • I enjoyed this... thanks for posting!

  • Tessa is so pretty. Had to watch it a second time cuz I couldn't pay attention

    Good job. Sounds great

  • @nerdman67 Teresa could be the guy for all you know. It's not an uncommon guy name.

  • the guy needs change his sticking 2 where hes inter changing hands it would look better and the notes would be stronger

  • NOW PLAY YAKETY SAX!

  • stop chewing gum

  • tessa's hot

    you guy's are pretty good ^^

  • to the guy on the left... listen to the song. you accent every note, you need to add some legato to a few notes. other than that, good job

  • I think would suck if they were in bed..."What your done? Its like only the first....." lol

  • i can pwn you at many other songs just not this one

  • Ok, yeah, she is pretty cute.

  • To the guy. Play alternating hands instead of like all right.

    To the girl. Play with 4 mallets with like 5ths intervals because that is the mist boring part I have ever seen

    I'm not trying to hate but give some pointers.

  • "thats like half of the song" lmfao!

    awesome tho

  • @atbranch123 MEEEE!

  • hmmmm sweet great job! one think though....don't downstroke!! lol thats my problem too don't worry....i get criticized 2 but yaaa and make sure your left and right hand are equal (specifically tessa)

  • sounds like a hand held game theme song..

  • can i haz Tessa?

  • omg stop chewing gum while your playing DX its so friggin distracting and unprofessional!!!

    not to be mean but im just saying -.-

  • Tessa's looking pretty damn bored.

  • shes to hot to play bannnnnd!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Chewing gum and playing at the same time tends to lead the musician astray tempo wise. Food for thought.

  • @dyingpens not if you chew in time :)

  • You guys are amazing. I'm a mallet player myself my favorite is the Vibes. But I'm so jealous you guys still have a chance to play I haven't been able to play in a year and I'm dying to get my hands on an instrument!!

  • HELL YEA

  • fyi..... That is NOT a Xylophone.... Its called a Marimba.......

  • nice like musiq box

  • nice!!!!!!!

  • Isn't that a marimba?

    This is really good though. Did you figure it out by ear?

  • the chicks hot

  • Score? :O

  • @Jogigun Do you really need a score? there a literally like 6 notes being played.. figure it out by ear dude

  • excuse me Tessa, i just wanna say the front of your face looks ridicalis

  • Is this Black River Highschool?

  • yu know thats disrespectful to say tht kind of stuff on the internert i best you guys are over 18

  • i'm not going to comment on technique or musicality, i believe all of these comments should be obvious. but yes tessa is kinda hot.

  • Tessa is hot!

  • Dont Double stick!!! ARGHH! make you look bad

  • @CurlyFry18 omg that is so true...its called alternating..

  • its great, but it boring to watch

  • hey their deliliah

  • It's a marimba for crying out loud. Anyway, the guy needs to use both hands, the girl needs to use her back three fingers, not just her index finger, and the guy needs to add the rythm. The song isn't played just in quarter notes. You guys obviously don't play, so for someone who has no idea how to play, you did really good!

  • Haha thats pro band geekss lol :P

  • I'd hit that

  • I search Marimba on Youtube, because I fucking feel like it. You have no right to say people who search marimba aren't normal. They have talent, unlike you, Roflverts. Asshole.

  • @rolfverts, did you know people can have a masters degeere in paying the marimba i searched it on you tube

  • no i have a life

  • @Hollyheart175 @Hollyheart175 There is no way a xylophone can have that register of notes. Xylophones go roughly down to a F3. That keyboard obviously has notes in a tenor/bass range.

  • she can play my maramba any day

  • @atbranch123 ya cant really see that well but yer i agree

  • @atbranch123 dude shes one of my best friends girlfriend

  • @atbranch123

    dont be so disrespectfull just because ur on the internet

  • @atbranch123 Anyone else think the guy who wrote this lacks brains?

  • @joseph2ne I've always called this "Hey there Delilah, I only know two chords on my guitar", and listening to Tessa's part confirms it.

  • @atbranch123 HELL YEA

  • @atbranch123 Perv

  • Wristsss! )':

    Bad technique

  • yep, definitely a marimba. a yamaha with the synthetic bars =] haha

  • Its a Xylophone! I've Been Playin Mallet Instruments for a long time! Trust me!

    I have that xylophone...

  • That's a marimba, if you've been playing any length of time you would know that

  • that there what you're playing is called a marimba....Not a xylophone

  • i think this is actually a marimba

  • boring

  • I would like to has Tessa pls !

  • this is pretty good i give you guys props for knowing how to play the songs. uhmmm the dude, use both your hands man.! thats what they are there for. Try alternating between the two. ive been playing xylophones and such for 5-6 years and trust me your sound will improve when u alternate with your hands. :)

  • Playing for 5-6 years? Well then you should know that isn't a xylophone.

  • i do know that's not a xylophone and i never said it was, but in general ive been playing xylophones for that long. that is a marimba.

  • Thats cos no normal fukn persom searches marimba in youtube

  • well, to start with i'm not normal. and yess i garuntee you people do search marimba's and other musical preferences. Especially those who are interested in playing, or do play. Besides you wouldn't have came across this video unless you clicked on it or typed "marimba" in the search box. Nice try. So unless you have something nice to say, please don't say anything at all. Thnxx :]

  • well actually i searched xylophone skills and followed related videos and i came across this

  • then don't tell me im not normal for searching marimba. i was interested in looking at what people can do.

  • call it truce

  • @Roflverts I suppose. fiiiine.

  • Comment removed

  • @mcconaughy26 LMAO!!

  • Hey man, you've got TWO hands !!!

  • can i fuck TESSA

  • Tessa is a mad hottie!!! :)

  • Okay, me and

    bettaluvthamusic down there really DO play marimba,

    and I couldn't care less that they aren't using their wrists.

    This is CUTE and they have mad skills for knowing how to play it.

    We're gonna learn it. (:

  • haha im not gonna tell you what you already know from everyone else's comments.

    buuuut. i scared my mom when I read

    Hey there Delilah on the Xylophone

    and i went "oh my God!" hahaha cant wait to learn it. that was legit haha :]

  • sorry to tell you, but that's a marimba.

  • ...that's a marimba

  • you could tell how much fun there having by the looks on their face

  • @wy2kool4u

    its determination

  • LOL

  • hi i would just like to say that you guys were playing on a marimba and not a xylophone. if you play anything. try getting the name of the instrument right

  • Can't you tell that they don't know how to play it anyways, the unorthodox fingerings and the way they don't really use their wrist. They probably just know how to play piano or some other stupid wind instrument.

  • according to what you have said sch00lw012k, you say the piano is a wind instrument. You have said "other" which means the piano is in the same class as wind instrumets? Im sorry, this just made me laugh.

  • Oops, lol. I made a mistake

  • that was rude and uncalled for, they're just messing around!

  • faggotz

  • Bass octaves, nice work, only real suggestion would be to use larger, softer mallets. They'll bring out the tone with a less percussive sound and make the song sound much smoother.

    Overall, nice job, guys :D Good idea, and I think if you did it right, the marimba would be the right choice of instruments to put that on! Keep up the good work!

  • Hm. Cool idea, but could be made better.

    MELODY: -- There's no expression in the melody :P Commit what you're playing to muscle memory and relax, the expression will follow. The song didn't become a radio hit by remaining at the same dynamic level. And while your notes were accurate (and I'm totally jealous :) ) Your rhythms were just 8th notes, man. Once more, the song didn't become a radio hit by singing in 8th notes. At additional texture through the appropriate rhythms.

  • thats a huge xyophone

  • isnt this a marimba? unless this is a 4half octave xylophone using marimbar blocks and strings

  • xylo?. really. :|

  • I could've sworn this was a marimba

  • just a little constructive criticism use alternate sticking and work on your techinique some but other than that very good

  • great song, great on xylophone

  • notes?

  • I thought all xylophone songs made me feel like a child again. (Search for "arky cedarmont" and listen.)

    If this song made me feel a certain age, I think it would be somewhere in my teens.

    If anyone knows of a kid's song with xylophones, please tell me the keywords because that's what I'm REALLY looking for!

  • both of them dont use very good technique

  • isn't it 'neither'?

  • thats not very good technique either

  • 0.o wow..... that's awesome and she's cute too!

  • nice job, and you keep proper rhythm, so great work!

  • awesome :)

    want more!

  • tessa is my favorite :)

  • it kind of bugs me that he doesnt switch hands very often..... but other wise i really liked it. good job

  • ahh, that bothers me too!

  • She's purttyyy <3 <3

  • can you email me the notes or something i can but the rest together i just need the notes for both sides

  • the guy has better technique then the girl the girl is using more arm then wrist but all in all really good

  • idk i think he would look better if he used both hands :/

  • awesome i joined percusion in middle school today so want to be really musically talented

  • gum chewing helps keep tempo? nice

  • wow my teachers get pissed when percussionists chew gum during class
