Tom's Diner (Suzanne Vega) - A CAPPELLA cover by Cookiepine (Trudbol & Kartiv2)

[jamoreno88]

C-Van just talk in English to me and I would be happy

[jamoreno88]

Are you singing that accent C-Van, because if you are wow that's amazing.

[BeauIXI]

Do you guys not have PayPal??

[pinpouek]

Raaaaaaah... Ever since I've heard this cover, it's been humming around in my head... All the time... It's great!

[CookiePine]

@pinpouek Thanks!

It's actually one of my favorites too :)

* C-van

[andreisabe]

omg, i love both voices, but hers makes me feel the song, gorgeous

[andreisabe]

Added to my playlist, this version is just better than the original... and i mean like 100 times. Hope to hear some more of this

[Jatomaru]

>_>

<_<

Am ithe only one that thinks they shouldve written this song themselves? Its almost better than the original.

[pielord33321]

Restoring my confidence that good a Capella does still exist.

[poetman123]

Wow. Just. Wow. You guys are supremely wonderful artists. I can not imagine the hours of hard work you've taken to take your talent and hone it into a craft. Exquisite. Truly a gift to hear your music.

[ConstanceParty]

J'aime beaucoup cette reprise de Suzanne Vega, elle est entêtante dans le bon sens du terme. Je l'ai eu en tête tout le long de mon examen de droit du travail, et c'était bien...

[trudbol]

@ConstanceParty Trop yes ! ;-)

[Johnny573159]

i'm afraid that i have to say that trudbol's first verse starts about 0,2 seconds too early

but who cares?? this is just awesome :DDD

[andreisabe]

i liked this song so mucht i cant stop rewinding and lstening again and again

[Johnny573159]

i want to have such a powerful deep voice :(

[bunnycats]

you guys are our favorite duo on youtube

[trudbol]

@bunnycats Thanks! Show your friends one of our videos, we're always appreciative of your support! ;-)

[rhopen]

Hi Cookie Pine, I always liked this Suzanne Vega song and I love what you did with it. Have a great 2012. -Ron

[trudbol]

@rhopen Thanks Ron! Cheers ;-)

[KikeYopo]

Cool :)

[trudbol]

@KikeYopo Thank you! ;-)

[Psychovers]

Everytime I see this video, I'm totally hypnotised.. kartiv2 is absolutely beautiful =)

[singingmissionary]

Do "Sing a Song" by Earth Wind and Fire. :) it would be fantastic. Thumbs up if you think so!

[stufish4040]

Great song, adorable cover :]

[conversekitty20]

this is better than the original! I'm addicted!

[quincythe42]

Have you ever considered doing The Piano Man?

[MissOmGf]

Do " Let it be " by the Beatles! The song was the song I heard when I realized my crush was seeing someone else and I got over it! Hopefully you see this!

[mikel9292]

6 people are fucking stupid

[trudbol]

@mikel9292 It's fine not to like our video, no need to hate.

[mikel9292]

@trudbol but i like your video a lot!

[trudbol]

@mikel9292 Thanks. I meant hating those who don't like our videos.

It's totally fine by me that some people don't enjoy my videos, and it's important we let these people feel free to do so and express it. I for instance miss not getting much constructive negative feedback from them, in part because of this kind of bashing. You know what I mean?

[mikel9292]

@trudbol yep

[GuitarAndMore]

This video needs a "love" button.

[trudbol]

@GuitarAndMore There's a "share" button, that would be great! We always appreciate support. ;-)

[Ant0Messi]

Vraiment pas mal :)

[trudbol]

@Ant0Messi Merci. ;-)

[Ajace1000]

Do a cappella version of "I Am the Walrus" by the Beatles.

[marcioals87]

Hey! Pretty Awesom! I was wondering how many hours each of you took to make this video!

[trudbol]

@marcioals87 I'd say this video took around 15 hours to make, but it's hard to measure because we live in 2 different countries and never really work "together". In fact, C-Van and I have never met in person. ;-)

[danielsquella]

Thanks!!! i love your music!!!!

[trudbol]

@danielsquella Thanks! Tell your friends, we always appreciate the support! ;-)

[bestpumpers]

I love that beat boxing

[trudbol]

@bestpumpers Thanks! I really got a kick out of doing the beatbox on this one. ;-)

[mystorydud]

awesome video guys i loved it

[trudbol]

@mystorydud Thanks! Share the video with friends if you can! ;-)

[juergen541]

This is so beyond good!

[trudbol]

@juergen541 Thanks! Tell your friends to come check out our channels, we'd appreciate the support! ;-)

[Blumenkatze]

i love for this song! 

[grafonolafavorite]

Always loved this song.

[t0yo]

I LOVE YOU :) Keep on the amazing work kari! It's a pity your channel doesn't have enough publicity! I share your videos frequently on facebook and like it everytime I can :) <3 you

[trudbol]

@t0yo Thank you very much for your support! ;-)

[MyFunDays]

I love your version of this beautiful song.

[MrJoshmeboy]

i think that you should do baby its cold outside. that would beperfect!

[siemen26]

i wish it was january 1st :)

[CookiePine]

@siemen26 it's coming my friend ;)

[mje2221]

Just got a heads up to this channel from a friend, amazing stuff :). Have you guys thought of doing "This Night" or "The Longest Time" by Billy Joel?

[CookiePine]

@mje2221 Alright!

Say hi and thanks to your friend... and welcome aboard!

New vid every 1st of a month ;)

[ThePatrickinator]

Could you guys do Where in The World is Carmen Sandiego by Rocapella with a new tag, please?

[juergen541]

Wow, this is sooo gooood! :)

[wienerbear]

so glad, you decided to put the audio track of c-van a little louder, cause her voice is so gentle. Most of the time it repressed by the rythm track

[cal50cartridge]

5 people were born after 1992

[CookiePine]

@cal50cartridge lol :P

[Pashuul]

@cal50cartridge I was born after 1992 and I like this haha

[andreisabe]

@cal50cartridge no, im pretty sure they have parkinson

[noviodedaniela]

you should do "Our love is here to stay" :) thumbs up if you agree!!

[trudbol]

@noviodedaniela I really like that one, but I'm not sure it's in C-Van's tastes. She's more into upbeat modern songs. ;-)

[polletto]

I just discovered your channel and already love you!

[trudbol]

@polletto ;-)

[OneDanBandUK]

I really like this guys....thumbs up for Julien's beatboxing also! Best wishes :)

[trudbol]

@OneDanBandUK Thanks buddy! ;-)

[genius7247]

Kartiv2! your voice remind me lily allen's voice! i love you, marry me! please?

[jwrathall]

"hey jude" beatles cover? this would be amazing

[trudbol]

@jwrathall Yeah I thought that would be a nice one, but C-Van's not into it. Though I'm sure we'll find lots of Beatles' songs to agree on!

[jwrathall]

@trudbol ok, then a trudbol multitrack? i can arrange a midi? haha

[trudbol]

@jwrathall If you can arrange for male voices, I'd be happy to have a look at your arrangement. Be aware if you're not used to this, that it's not easy: you have to keep all voices (if possible) within a 2 octave range from low F2 to high G4, while keeping each voice easy to memorize and sing. It's not easy to arrange tight harmonies. Anyhow, let me know. ;-)

[jwrathall]

ok. just discovered cookiepine... now the beginning of every month has meaning!! love you guys!

[trudbol]

@jwrathall Thanks! ;-)

[andyandeloda]

LOVE IT!



[hesperaurnis]

nice one!

[wendys120]

You sound really good! I never did care for this song, though.

[trudbol]

@dogsandcats65 !!!!!!!!!!!!!

[noviodedaniela]

you should do The lady is a tramp, thumbs up if you agree

[lamilanesade]

you would totally rock somebody to love by queen

[trudbol]

@lamilanesade There are many Queen songs I'd love to do, but I don't think they fit our voices (I'm a baritone-bass and C-Van is an alto) and comparison with Freddie Mercury isn't something I really envy. Choosing a song is difficult, one really needs to take the singers into account, their voices, tastes, etc. ;-)

[lamilanesade]

@trudbol I guess you're right on that ... I did not see how their voices do not match Freddie's voice :-)

I'd really like to see some challenging song, a song that makes me say yeah they are above the level

Really do not know much about music and with your deep voice I do not know which artist you would be comfortable with.

I really don't know anything about music and with your low voice don't know wich artist would match with yours

[trudbol]

@lamilanesade It's not so much a problem that we have low voices (I can also sing high), but Queen songs are EXTREMELY high, even for people who have a high voice. These songs also require voices. Our best bet is to go for classic songs with "normal" vocals (Beatles songs for instance are great)

[lamilanesade]

the beatbox face of Trudbol was hilarious

[trudbol]

@lamilanesade ;-)

[hugocormerais]

i don't like Kartiv2 voice

[MrKongssund]

incroyable!

[trudbol]

@MrKongssund Thanks buddy! ;-)

[dushka2001]

to my taste, the best cookie ever. so cool, so elegant...

thank you, guyz!

[trudbol]

@dushka2001 Thanks my friend. Still ready to try something creative with you. ;-)

[Kiioko]

I've loved this song for YEARS. It's so lovely to hear you two singing it.

[trudbol]

@Kiioko Thanks Lisa! Singing it I realized it had also been a favorite of mine as well. ;-)

[Deuscuidarademim]

Very nice! :)

[trudbol]

@Deuscuidarademim Thanks! ;-)

[mrosebro]

awesome cover guys... i forgot about this song, you two did a great job with it :)

[trudbol]

@mrosebro Thank you! ;-)

[PoisonLolita4]

Marvellous!! ^______ ^

[trudbol]

@PoisonLolita4 Thank you! Do repost the video on your Facebook if you enjoyed it, your support is appreciated! ;-)

[sgtsonny]

Hahahaha so you're beatboxing now? Sounds great man!!

[trudbol]

@sgtsonny Yeah, why not? It's really, really basic beatboxing and I need to learn how to to give it that ""umph" bass sound that Mike Tompkins has. But it's a lot of fun to do!

How's your fire going? ;-p

[surktom]

you should do: ''hit the road jack'' by ray charles, thumbs up if you agree

[trudbol]

@surktom That's a good idea! I'll see if C-Van's into it (not sure though), but definitely a timeless classic.

[Trisonardo]

awesome!!!



[trudbol]

@Trisonardo Thank you! ;-)

[At0mium]

Wow, pretty good! This is one of the bests you've done!! Congratulation!

[trudbol]

@At0mium Merci l'ami ! ;-)

[TheLionsDenNews]

Love you two, awesome work as always :).

[bober19952005]

i like this better then the original song =)

[trudbol]

@bober19952005 Wow, thanks! ;-)

[Mrspruitt86]

I LOVE this song lol takes me back a min LOL

[robdebekker]

it echoes a bit, but nice vid again :P

[dav7777777E]

Bravo!!!!!!!!

[trudbol]

@dav7777777E Thank you! ;-)

[dav7777777E]

@trudbol

Great Job trudbol.. i likes your works...greetings from Germany...davE

[BeelzebubsSeraphim]

who would dislike this?!

[MiguelGomes95]

i guess this compensates for youtube going crazy

[Opuskrokus]

I love Trudbols "pop vocals" approach here! I sounds great, but please don't take it any further or you'll lose your sonic personality, which we all love!

[trudbol]

@Opuskrokus Thanks! This isn't my style of singing to be honest (close to the microphone and a bit talky), but it's an interesting change. I'm more focused on the singing on Trudbol, it's closer to my personal tastes. ;-)

[precisi0n84]

Love the unexpected beatbox. Definetely do more stuff with beatbox!

[trudbol]

@precisi0n84 Thanks! We probably will, I honestly didn't think I could do an OK job on the beatboxing. ;-)

[precisi0n84]

@trudbol Quick question on recording. How much reverb do you use, and is it added on after recording vocals or do you use reverb during recording?

[kartiv2]

@precisi0n84 after recording :)

I used around 30% "Roomworks - Hall Cathedral" (it's a cubase plug)

[TheLaura1023]

Why don't you sing "something stupid by Frank Sinatra and Nancy Sinatra"?

[trudbol]

@TheLaura1023 I think it's a nice idea. Dunno if C-Van's so much into oldies, but I'll try to convince her. ;-)

[TheLaura1023]

@trudbol ok.... jejej i hopè you can convince her!

[eveecooper]

Ooo I enjoyed this! Kinda mysterious! I love the harmonies!

[trudbol]

@eveecooper Thanks! ;-)

[TanteA]

Very well done cover and excellent video!

Nice greetings from Anette

[trudbol]

@TanteA Danke schön Anette! ;-)

[Smokingbird100]

Love it! Each month there is always a awesome quantum leap!

[trudbol]

@Smokingbird100 Thanks! ;-)

[dandarion]

beatbox, cool!

[trudbol]

@dandarion ;-)

[GHACKSTER]

Beautiful. You two are a great combination. Love it.

[trudbol]

@GHACKSTER Thanks! :)

[falandoatoa]

that's beautiful =')

[trudbol]

@falandoatoa Thanks! :)

[dushka2001]

sophisticated and mega cool. great job, guyz!

[trudbol]

@dushka2001 Thank you! ;-)

[BasicSoul666]

THIS IS EPIC MAN♥!!

[trudbol]

@BasicSoul666 Thanks! ;-)

[therealEmpyre]

I like your taste in music. It feels weird to think of this song as an oldie, though.

[faireset]

Hé bien vous pouvez vous vanter de m'avoir donné des frissons ! et ça faisait longtemps que ça ne m'étais pas arrivé !

J'ADORE !!

[kartiv2]

@faireset Des frissons ftw!

Thanks M.magicien

[trudbol]

@faireset Toujours heureux de te divertir ! ;-)

[EmmaInCandyland]

[010munky010]

Great Job!

[trudbol]

@010munky010 Thanks! ;)

[MethosUSMC]

amazing

[trudbol]

@MethosUSMC Thanks! ;)

[TheTubaMonkey]

I love how much character Julien's voice has in what is a very neutral baritone range for most people. So smooth! Great jobs you two. Both of you combined makes for a very unique sound.

[trudbol]

@TheTubaMonkey Thanks! We really wanted to make this a soothing and dreamy cover, glad you enjoyed it. ;-)

PS: My melody line is more bass than baritone actually (bass is lower than baritone).

[kartiv2]

@TheTubaMonkey I love Julien's voice in this range too!! I always like to test how low he can get and still sound awesome ;)

[BenStanleyVlog]

Very, very nice! The underscoring harmonies are so smooth and eerie; the video editing is interesting as well, and the animations add very nicely. Great job!

[trudbol]

@BenStanleyVlog Thank you! ;-)

[kartiv2]

@BenStanleyVlog Thanks man :)

Oron400 did the animation.. you should visit his channel too..

He got some awesome stuff..

[SerothTalon1]

@BenStanleyVlog check their FAQ videos

[musicalnomad8]

I love the fact that you picked this song. We had a week of lectures on song writing at this school I was at and they played this song as an exsample of a hook. My friends and I had this song stuck in our heads for two weeks to the point that when ever we saw each other we had converstions using this melody. Good times. :-D

[kartiv2]

@musicalnomad8 I know.. the lyrics of this song is freakin GENIUS!!

Suzanne Vega rocks :)

[musicalnomad8]

@kartiv2 I totally agree. It's one of those songs that is a great example of good song writing.

[CrazyInsane22]

hey trudbol you rock. and kartiv, i <3 you.

[trudbol]

@CrazyInsane22 Thank you! ;)

[pokefan772]

i have absolutly no words for haw amazing that was. i cant' say enough how wonderful you two are for doing these videos. and again thanks.

[NCISfreak123]

I think you guys should do some of the Portal Music :D
