  • You're cute, but the tempo is wack, youre too quiet and overall just wasn't that good .

    you have potential but meh.

  • this song is extremely sad. the lyrics, the whole feeling of it. ben gibbard sings with such emotion. i dont get emotion from you. you play well, but you need to immerse yourself into the emotion and feeling of the song. you need to imagine that you are the narrator, that the love of your life is dying. come on! feel it! in your "i will follow you into the dark" and "passenger seat" covers, i didnt get emotion, either. i'm sure it's there, but it is not translating to me. make it so!

  • I know this was done in 2007 but I still come back to this... great work.

  • Nice. please cover a Nada Surf song. :)

  • Your voice is perfect for this song, and your piano playing is great, but you're going just a tad too fast. Slow it down and it would be perfect.

  • great job =]

  • you're voice is wonderful, you play so well, you are very pretty and best of all i'm in love with your living room.. so spacious!

  • I think it was a bit faster than the original, but a great cover - this is the first piano cover I've ever seen on Youtube, if only the rest of them will be half as good I won't be disappointed. And congratulations, too !

  • Very Nice!!!

  • Oh my goodness... I remember watching this video like 2 years ago. It still amazes me...(:

    Tara

  • Amazing job!!!! Such a beautiful song :)

  • you're going too fast, but still great job, and you're so cute..........

  • this is great!

  • yeah, if you slowed it down abit, it would have emphasized the feeling of the song. but still very very beautiful!!

  • this is an awesome cover but its a tiny bit fast, maybe 20 bpm higher than the recording, but u have beautiful voice and nice playing ^_^

  • you have a great voice and played the piano very well! keep up the good work(:

  • Slow down.

  • The bassline goes FGAE for the first part. Just looking out for you.

  • @theempiremelts FGAC*

  • @INSigotem No, you're ears are just tricking you because the bassline (descending at that point) causes one to perceive the pitch to drop even lower than the actual note and C and E are a major 3rd apart, (which is very common harmonically). So it may sound like it goes all the way down to C, but it is definitely an E. Kudos for caring enough to be skeptical and test me though.

    FGAE***

  • @INSigotem But mostly you probably hear C because it's a Cmaj7 chord in first inversion (E in bass). There's your DCFC theory lesson for the day.

  • metronome, don't rush it.

  • it was a little fast, but it was great.

    amazing voice, and you're soo pretty! lol, i can see those comments down there from guys, haha. This is great!! Get signed?

    my fave death cab song, and i am proud to say that IHeldYouCloser did a cover! (:

  • i still think you should marry me... <3

  • @101lol Oh, I would my friend, but I just got married. ha ha

  • @IHeldYouCloser congrats! How was year 0?

  • @IHeldYouCloser Ever seen the shows on tv with multiple wives? Reverse it. 

  • Very good job! I would slow it down just a smidge though... really get the full emotion. :)

    Good job.

  • wow u just killed a great song bitch

  • wow that was really good, i just think it would have been better if you were a little louder. incredible playing though! ;)

  • Agree with other poeple about the pace but your voice is amazing,really suited to a death cab song.

  • Slow down. Where the hell are you going at a thousand miles an hour? Also, try to calm down. You look so nervous. :)

  • awesome!!!

  • this is awesome, i envy you! lotta greets from germany!

  • wow,,, a little fast but ,,, just,,, amazing,,,,

  • slow down!!! sing out!

  • you are beautiful and have a lovely voice.

    i think you are playing it a bit too fast though

  • hey she plays it the way she wants too . go away haters.  well done

  • Really Good!

  • Really good, but its F, G, A then down to E, like

    vinchenzison said.

  • Sounds great, but try walking the bass up the notes, so, F, G, A then down to E

  • Very nice, but too fast!

  • she´s beautiful!!

  • awe, thanks ;)

    Great vid.

    Very fast though. I'd like to see it slower. With louder singing. Otherwise... fantastic. <3

  • sry i mean Seether did the cover of Careless Whisper

  • I finally remembered my login for you tube so now i can comment this!!!

    This is an amazing cover!

    Ur voice is so beautiful Kemari!!

    and yea the tempo is up but w/e thats the point of a cover!! Making it your own!

    If Staind can cover careless whisper and replace a saxophone with an electric guitar then u can increase ur tempo dammit!

    Mahblo!

    Great cover Kemmy!=]

  • Beautifully played - shame about the tempo! Come down a bit :)

  • a bit fast as others have said. maybe sing a bit louder also? wonderful wonderful voice though

  • do you have sheets for this??

    if so, please please please tell me where they are :D

    thanks soo much

  • Awesome! Your voice is beautiful! I wish I could sing like that.

    I love this song so much.

  • u should cover Brand New's- fork and knife pretty voice

  • Beautiful.... If you could please redo this, a tad bit slower. You seemed rushed. If you could sing any louder, and slow it down, I'll gladly post an MP3 of this, since you're so amazing at singing and piano. It's simply beautiful. I congratulate you.

  • hey girl, your voice sounds good, i like the changes you made. but play it a little slower. ;)

  • where did you get the chords?

  • sound it out bro. Everyone else did.

  • you are really pretty [=

  • if you slowed it down a bit it would of been perfect, but you did an amazing job :)

  • good call

  • perfect

  • you are gorgeous...beautifull cover :)

  • that was awesome, you have a great voice! :D

  • I love this cover!  :)

  • very good u just gotta relax tho, slow down let it flow

  • your awsome and pretty:) nice job

  • your playing a bit fast, slow it down a little and it will be alot better :D (not saying its not good now :D)

  • haha ^^ I want one of you as a pet, ur so adorable, like a puppy!

  • adorable!

  • You're great!

    Piano was amazing. You went a little fast, but understandable. You voice was good for multitasking, but you seemed dull, quiet, and nasally. Sing more with your throat than your nasal passages, breath with your diaphragm for projection, and feel what you're singing. Put more emotion behind it, this is a very emotional song.

  • It was really beautiful

  • anybody else want to give her the vote for cutest girl to ever sing this song?

  • awe, so sweet :)

  • @GimpyCano3 I vote yes on that one!

  • lol...you need a new vid cam

  • please... marry me... :[

  • mmmm...ok :) How's tomorrow look?

  • a little too fast but still a good job. and also alex ist schwul

  • WIN!

  • i can play this on the piano, almost everyone who can play the piano can play this song. but not everyone can sing it ;]

  • wow

    this is amazing

    ur really talented

    good job.

    xx

  • that was excellent piano and singing talent, i love this song for what its trying to say. As you've probably heard, you were going a little fast (the actual song is 6 minutes long) but that was impressive, you should post a video of transatlanticism, or boston by agustana, that would cool for your talents. two thumbs up!

  • It's a 6 minute song, but 3 minutes of that is just instrumental. Either way, that was pretty awesome and can't wait to see more!

  • verry nice! i love it

  • I wish I could play like that, that is so cool!

  • you do good but you rush a wee bit

  • great!

  • omg i like your house XD lol. that was really good! i wish i had that piano talent >_>

  • your voice is absolutely amazing(: good job!! :D

  • I LOVE IT

    <3

  • Just a taste of irony. I was an idiot and figured "What the hell? Can't hurt to try, right?"

    I pasted this to three other videos. It's Friday now, and my girlfriend just dumped me. These chain messages make me giggle a little now...

  • going tooo fast,, but that was good!!!

  • wow, nice vioce, you should put up the sheet music too

  • sorry :( Its played by ear. No sheet music to give you or I would :)

  • you have a really good musical ear :D

  • they can all shhhh... you did it perfectly, no need to be slower, you did it just right.

  • beautiful, both song and player :D

  • ur voice is beautiful i wish u had a mic tho! good job

  • Play it slower, please! Then it should be a whole lot better. Did you get your username from We Looked LIke Giants, by the way?

  • yep "and I held you closer than anyone would ever get" or is it guess?

  • Your voice is beautiful [:

  • wow i wish i would of started playing piano when i was young so i would be that good

  • You can give me lessons anytime ;) amazing!

  • you're beautiful, and amazing!

  • Wow. You are amazing :)

  • You are an extraordinary talent. Don't let haters drag you down.

    All great people have haters, because haters are petty and small. And you remind them that they are not great.

  • wow REALLY good!!!!

  • Play it slower and it should be better.

  • this is pretty good. slow it down though.

    and you did well with the piano tabs (:

  • great =)

  • Need to play a wee bit slower, but nice job.

  • Amazing, your voice et this beautiful song. Just like it :D

  • You should work on your vocals. Slow down on the song a little. Your piano skills are amazing though.

  • It's too fast. As you already know. But really you should try to project more. Your piano skills are amazing but I can't hear your voice as well. It's pretty but I can't hear you.

  • Nice job.

    My only comment is meant to move you toward further greatness: Slow down. Savor each note. Make people wait for and anticipate each upcoming phrase. Dread the end of the song and play like you never want it to come.

    And always remember--the music is found BETWEEN the notes!

  • Like to see u even play the Piano like her ;\ Stop being mean. Theres no need for it.

  • I'm just saying...play it slower.

  • lol I got voted down like hell x[) I don't even remember what I said (?) wtf

  • you probably work the corners a lot better everyone else too but i didnt hear you braggin about that..

  • now i love it :·)

  • You are amazing!

    Kiss from France! :)

  • your pretty and you have a freakin amazing voice

  • AmAzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzI­NG

  • its just a litttttle bit too fast.

    slow down a little, and itll be loads better.

    you have an amazing voice ! :D

  • it's weird (In a positive way :)) and really great how your voice sounds so much older than you look... that always amazes me ..

    you sound really great (although maybe the piano is a tad too fast..)

  • Great song. Really moving. It's obvious that you really love this song x

  • you are amazing good luck

  • amazing, but weird quality on the camera.

  • I play this song too on piano and this sounds awesome. One suggestion is take it slower, it gives the song more emotion :-)
