[Finkleburg45]

lovelovelovelovelove



[Treeman987]

woah! you lot are great

[bslz65]

girls who like animal collective exist?!?!? i have hope<3

[Okegr]

many times do i find myself listening to this instead of the original

[jsgregory27]

Hey nice cover... what chords are you playing?

[amazonriverporpoise]

boner

[cannedkitty]

very nice interpretation. keep up the good work :)

[HorchatasaurusRex]

you girls are great together

[BassBOY0GIRL]

Great job, but some critique:

Violin was too loud, kind of over powering

The chorus (pow, pow, now, now) is supposed to be loud, and emohasized on each beat.

[cannedkitty]

@BassBOY0GIRL they weren't cutting a fucking track, they are just having fun putting a song up on youtube. comments like yours annoy the fuck out of everyone.

[MrAnonymous21564]

The little folk element is the perfect touch to this song.

Vocals are amazing, the violinist and the pianist did an awesome job as well.

In other words, fuck yeah.

[adrenalinejunkiie3]

this is amazing.

[FolkaMealaMole]

LZ! Something happened recently where my youtube account wasn't working. I wasn't too bothered because commenting is usually nonsensical, negative or dumb. But I just found your songs (through the awesome Grass cover) and had to do that nuisance signing-up business all over again just to get on here to say I've been totally gobsmacked my all your videos and that you utterly rock and soothe and rise above the tripe-ish crop of homemade youtube music.Virtual hugs to you!

[wc3415]

violin was too loud even tho it was already so far away

[HaydenWinnett321]

I would honestly buy this on itunes.

[greenandwhite23]

Honestly amazing......

[yolarachel]

This is amazing! I searched cover of this song on YouTube not expecting to find anything because it's such a hard song to cover, but this completely blew my mind. Good work!

[alliant]

violins amazing. pulls your balls up.

[TMBAFA]

THIS MUST BE SHARED!

[whatareyoudoingbabs]

watch?v=KJ9QNq3qV5c

watch a vid for it (:

[thizdumm]

I watched this a few days ago and came back to watch it again. I liked it this time even more. Violin is a great addition and your voice is smooooooth. Wish you had more videos.

[AnimalShoah]

You're fucking amazing. I'll be seeing you tonight ... in my head movies!

[divineweinshine]

That was actually fucking awesome.

[rez6457]

[LateSunspots]

You have a beautiful voice. This is unique..I cant say ive seen something like this before. Awesome song to do a cover of.

[cappuccinolover17]

Beautifully done.

[lerrybobs]

... thank you

[TheTimeDad]

Uhh serious that was amazing... Nice that you had fun with it.

[EyeHeartSkateboard]

One of the hardest songs to cover. This is so awesome.

[GracelynnCrews]

i would love to learn this cover

[GracelynnCrews]

man i just started the video but the girl on guitar sounds fantastic!

[ItsGrrreat]

OMG please do more Animal Collective covers you are beastin it!

[JoelsTunes]

holy christ in a can

[inatticdelay]

this is officialy the best cover ever

[GeistWerk]

I agree with Ian2197 about the violin. other than that, awesome cover. I'm still waiting for a cover of that song with powerful POW POW POWs. :D

[smallpooll]

Pretty sure your the cutest thing alive.

you seriously should write your own music.

and badass cover.

[emericanskatermatt]

@lucidzirkus i think its fine without the pillows.. you should of done the pow! pow! now! now! part tho.

[jamss299]

my favourite animal collective cover

[Mattlethew]

That's very good compared to other animal collective's covers !!! (and great voice too).

[skatemore20]

i want to marry the guitar girl, sorry if thats creepy

[xLikeABossx]

i love your voice.

[drgonzo1103]

gotta echo the sentiments of some other posters here. great idea and pretty good execution, but the violin just comes in too strong. still, nicely done and a good choice of song to cover. cheers.

[hampsterbb]

haha wow that was really good xD aybe you could try using a violin mute or something or play softer but wow xD i love your voice :D this is a really good cover :D

[g0pi3]

very LOUD, but nice. very nice :)

[animalcollective4eve]

i love your voice!! this is sooo cool!!!!!

[theemurider]

This is the coolest thing I've seen all day. Keep it up.

[4thearth]

Best cover Ive ever heard of anything EVER

[heysatan8]

When it ended I felt like cheering. Woooooooh!!!

[Fixdal]

[pukeoncops123]

You girls rule.

[gatezi4583]

seeing this video is like witnessing a double rainbow. maybe even a triple rainbow

[Yankyal1]

That was really good!

[kcplease1]

you guys are nasty talented

[tortagirl]

THIS IS AWESOME

[RahReplicaGrrrl]

oh my god that was awesome, wish I couldnt have heard your voice a bit more, the violin kind of took it over. but serioulsy this was awesome.

[kkkboom]

[crazier]

[metaharmony]

[yankees12054]

[jamss299]

[luisdile02]

Dean loves you

[lionrevolt]

wow

[callmenickm22]

this is jammin'. violin is sweet as hell

[gotme8me]

wow. I really, really enjoyed this. I've seen a lot of bad animal collective cover videos--but this is easily the best one. It's refreshing to see actual talent.

[pookGai]

this made me smile, very well done!

[TheCrimper]

B+ for effort. Seriously though, good shit right hurr. The violin is a nice touch.

[lucidzirkus]

@TheCrimper B+ for your comment.

[TheCrimper]

@lucidzirkus You're too kind! Honestly, I AM FLATTERED xD

[diego898]

@TheCrimper D- for your B+ then seriously good shit right hurr? You're dumb I hate you...I hate youtbue comments and I hate life

[TheCrimper]

@diego898

only one thing to do then

[XebecOH]

This is magnificient! Your version of the chorus made me so happy.

[verbitent]

cute

"highland" came to mind. open coutnryside wilderness.

nice.

[composerdoh]

Indeed you lot are just precious.

;-)

What kind of school do you go to that you have to rearrange songs? (I wish I went to THAT high school...)

One thing- the violin drowns out the voice and makes it difficult to make out the words. I'm sure you noticed, but perhaps you could post the words for us?

[soulseeker300]

your voice is fucking cool lol.

[r3dk9]

I just wish the piano was a touch louder, but this is a pretty great cover.

[hemangiaggio]

Really good.

[RAIDIOFACE]

well don im dazzled

[kamalmanzukie]

the singer has that trumpet-like jazz tone going on in her voice. love it.

[almostorgasmic]

amazing.

[tkester7]

BAAAAHH! Holy shit. You guys are fuckin amazing. I'm a musician myself and I know animal collective is hard to cover. When I saw three girls i'm not going to lie, I didn't know what to expect. But you guys fuckin rock, I want to smke a bowl with all of you!!! Job well done!

[lucidzirkus]

@tkester7 let's do it!

[spinakerjones77]

Hands down the best Animal collective cover I've ever heard, it sounds nothing like them and its so amazing!!! If you haven't already sent this to Animal collective you really need to, I think they would really appreciate it, thank you for understanding animal collective.

[alliant]

agreed!

[itsxofact]

Wow that was really good! You're all really talented and I especially like your voice :)

[SpoonHysteria]

wow... that was actually extremely good........

[ImNotComfyInNautica]

This made me smile.

Most animal collective covers do not do that for me

[BrendanHottie]

you guys are awesome, but where's the POW POW POW NOW NOW POW

[toxigrafia]

Guau. Amazing.

[davemorphine]

another version will be great (of course better than Animal's one)

[SolidTurtle]

really awesome cover, you guys should just rerecord it and mix it a bit, fix the audio levels. then it would be PERFECT

[branderson88]

wow great cover. it doesnt even matter if there are minor differences thats what makes it fun and expressive. oh and not to sound like a creep but the vocalist is a cutie =]

[leadbelly39]

the tempo for this is perfect. and the way the violin flows through the staccato guitar is awesome

[uzd]

Melissa Brandt, marry me?

[mlpayne89]

I never say good things about animal collective covers because I am such a die hard animal collective fan but this is really really good.

[giovannimcfly]

Amazing!!!

the singer is very pretty

[giovannimcfly]

Amazing!!!!!! :D

I love Anima Collective and its a good cover

and the singer is very pretty

:D

[popoyt]

Very good ! Too bad the piano is too low in the mix (and the violin might be too high too). But overall i have nothing to say but congratulations to you three.

[FreakFolk391]

You've got a really gorgeous voice.

This is very well done!

Kudos

[VcookiemonsterV]

violin is great just too overbearring. yougins

[AnnaElena]

you guys. this is amazing.

[cdogz101]

great singer

[Dsoup]

yeah can you do it without the violin. no offense to the player, but not good.

[HamSandwich09]

Nah, the violin goes well, it was just too loud.

[oohlalovelove]

I love this a lot.

[AdDeOWN]

This is really good!

I love this alot, but the violin overvoiced the vocalist alot :/.

[mnwalke]

nice!

[fmayan27]

This is, in a word, lovely.

Well done guys! I'd love to hear more of your stuff (though it might be difficult considering you're all at different schools now)

[provokatie]

Amazing!!!! I need this mp3!

[maeiraldi]

A cover of AC that actually does their music justice! Awesome job doods!!!

[HelloSundayMorning]

this is absolutely incredible, I've been blown away.

[KenKowwwrb]

how old are you guys?!

[NotArthurCurry]

good job guys

[FarCryss]

Great cover guys! The violin is a bit harsh but other than that I liked it a lot.

[aesrp]

sweet.

[superflywhiteboys94]

Dayum!

[alk6b]

so nice! amazing, all three of you :) love the violin

[danielc1620]

wowowowow this is great! It's like the only AC cover I like.... Great job.

[HamSandwich09]

This is inexplicably amazing.

[ashleylennan]

the violin made me tear at one point, in a good way :D

[PatrickCederberg]

levels could be adjusted a wee bit

but fantastic nonetheless, kudos ladies

[dustin15rockz]

pretty sick, but u sing it like if it was some old pop song.. besides that its pretty sick

and ur pianist is pretty bomb:)

[lucidzirkus]

Animal Collective is 'pop'

and this song is 'old'

[cookieplz]

@lucidzirkus since when was AC pop?

[9cain]

@lucidzirkus lets get one thing straight animal collective is not pop. None of their songs fall into the crap genre called pop.

[heine21]

Good job - I wish the mix was different, though. Tone the violin down and bump your voice and the piano up and this would be TIGHT. You gals rule nonetheless...

[intheflesh01]

this is making me smile so big!!

[0AcrossAmerica0]

Excellent.

[hanzecercheek]

Such a rad cover.

[Kodama28]

WHERES THE SCREAMIN

[schmitty3]

i love when you really get into it for a sec at 1:53

[dianeticstu]

great job! lovely voice. only cringe was the violen on the powpownownow's

[doober1818]

Wow. So awesome. Very innovative singing in a few parts too, it was great

[SmokinBabies]

[FreshLizette]

I absolutely love this cover. It is so amazing. I wish I could put it in my iPod, and listen to it on the go!

A+ job.

[vagrantone0]

[zacginhere]

awesome work.

makes me smile every time.

[LiftYourSkinnyFists]

[lucidzirkus]

that means a load

i'll change that

[LiftYourSkinnyFists]

[hanzecercheek]

Vry nice.

[kevinm4435]

[JollieOllie18]

This is fantastic. How old are you all? I'm so impressed.

[McElasmosaurus]

This cover is done very well.

Singer has a nice, pleasant voice.

However, the violin is a little too loud.

[brrnay]

i subbed so dissapoint, put out s'more animal covers

[nicksemail93]

I honestly logged on to favorite this and beg you to continue to pursue music and possibly make more covers. The composition you made was absolutely fantastic. The singer's voice is absolutely beautiful to hear. Please continue singing!

[JesseJarvis]

PLEASE do an accoustic only version of this song PLEAAAAAAAASE, i'm begging you. your voice is perfect.

[LiftYourSkinnyFists]

it would be perfect if you just made the violin a little quieter some how. good job.

[ninobh92]

You're brilliant and not many people can actually figure out how to do one of their songs. Amazing, please come up with more.

[PompousLummox]

I love you.

[brrnay]

i think leaf house would be a good one for you guys to cover.

[brrnay]

wow, this is absolutely great. love the singers voice too wish she woulda went crazy with the pow now....

[daughters1]

please cover more animal collective!!!!! if i may make a request id love to see you do banshee beat !

[stario84]

[umraan]

[KillerBeeEnt]

This is a fantastic rearrangement! charmingly preformed : )

[burbinski]
