Holland 1945 (Neutral Milk Hotel cover)

[lukerr87]

Amazing cover of a fucking awesome song. I'm trying my best not to write a Anne Frank joke though.

[ruggedfiLth]

am i the only one who clicked on this kuz they thought it was anne frank covering neutural milk lololol?

[imgaston]

There should be a parody of this, and like right in the middle of it they should have the SS burst in and seize her

[RockDoLL18]

Tumblr brought me here. lol at those anne frank comments. :)

[DrButler]

He wrote this song about you.

[ttomdorrej]

Anne, shouldn't you be in a basement or something? The Gestapo are everywhere.

[Jpants26]

that was pretty awesome. imma learn this one after KoCF

[Radiohead17321]

Great cover dont listen to the haters

[vinnysayshey713]

wanna have sex?

[Manuel542]

You should remake this in a studio because the quality is very bad here. Good cover!

[LeMightySabre]

Fuck you Hitler, Anne Frank is one hot jew.

[deathspasm9]

album version: 3 minutes 13 seconds

this video: 2 minutes 29 seconds

SLOW DOWN GIRL!

[RollercoasterWater]

hey anne

[cheesefeast]

All this guitar playing may just alert the SS.

[Theblizzardking]

She's back!

[SkittleStorm]

You're amazing, wish i could play/sing like that <3

[NachoNacho19]

beautiful

[charlotte07071]

Oh God I feel really bad but when I saw those Anne Frank comments I laughed SO much!

[mlsku]

I'm not going to make an Anne Frank joke but I will say:

I think this tempo was too fast for you. It sounded good and had great energy but the speed got you louder and we couldn't hear the vocals clearly. Other than that it was great!

[Fanchus]

ANNE FRANK!!!! D:

[lloplop]

I never forgot this cover. I come back here to see it occasionally. This is one of the strangest videos on youtube I have ever seen. You really freak me out. There is something about you. I feel like your facial expressions might remind me of someone from my past. I feel like I need to protect you from something. your face from 00:16-00:31 scares me. you're great. slow the fuck down.

[papatia]

hurray a girl who doesn't try and sound like beyonce

[Fanchus]

ANNE FRANK!

[Robbo5412]

Great :)

[RAZALAS92e]

awesome cover :D Great job.

[walkonearth]

[coolkidballsinyomout]

[GrlWitRosesInHerEyes]

You're so beautiful! :D

[loveSc7]

wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooooow you ROCK!

[kokil]

Yeah! I mean you do look like Anne Frank and since the whole album is about her you should do...the whole album, haha. But really!

[mosafat47]

Hide and seek world champion 1945-2010!

[Jonmad17]

Anne Frank singing Neutral Milk Hotel? How meta!

Joking aside, you should cover the entire album. I enjoy your performances.

[adstoneable]

Jeff mangum would approve of anne frank singing his song about anne frank. Bravo! Bravo! It is good

[treysfull]

Could someone please tell me what the strum pattern is?

[PriorityNapkin]

@treysfull DOWN DOWN UP UP DOWN UP

[KyleHopeless]

Jeff magnum would love this sooo much. Anne frank singing his song about herself.

[ThrobMarley]

Please tune

[Ninja339]

Anne Frank singing Holland 1945? Am I on drugs?

[Jutesoup]

[LepyThedino]

OMGOGMOGMOGMGOMGOWDWSFMN.SDMLS­DIOAGNFGB ITS ANNE FRANK HOLY JESES OMG AAAAHHHH

[Utentagen]

OH GAWD JEZIS DIS IS BE ANNE FRINK

[crimboski]

Amazing, once again. This cover makes me feel guilty, for some reason. I think the whole album does to be honest. Jeff Mangum is amazing. Excellent cover yo, much appeciated...

[johnbbolton]

they're both super cute too ( ;

[elvisml2]

Well done.

[f4ke666]

You're great.

[hinessa]

i like it. i bet the thumbsdowners couldn't do half as good

[fetustron]

wow, props

[bonesat]

Thumbs up for Anne Frank

[TheOneWhoSings1]

Good angle and nice cover... I can learn this just by looking at you do it... good work.

[Justfilloutthe111111]

Long version:

Best "Holland 1945" cover on YouTube

Best "thericedotted" video on YouTube

Best cover on YouTube

Short Version:

♥

[OhhItsOnlyEmily]

Nice cover, very enthusiastic! Oh & the fact that you kind of look like Anne Frank, as pointed out by others as well, is also quite a funny conincidence.

[HippyWeasel]

" (I swear he has a gigantic air tank directly connected to his respiratory system) "

~Great quote

~Great cover

[Goochap]

>My face when she looks like Anne Frank

[TheOneWhoSings1]

Standard tuning?

[CityOfHolly]

Guitar=impressive.

[jumblequeen]

brava. your pep is endearing. made me think of the lemonheads cover of mrs. robinson.

ever heard of john fahey? i bet you'd do some interesting things with this stuff.

[brandnewhate01]

i dont mind the upbeatness. Its a nice intervention when you watch all the other acoustic covers

[rock5j]

yes a lil creepy id say slow down maybe

[mlsku]

Here's an ehh rating

"EHH"

[GranCarta]

this song it wonderful, love your cover... I tried to cover In the aeroplane over the sea by NMH, check it! :)

[palmeiraguitar2010]

She is very good,congragulations!!! :D

[KalVasTENKI]

Great cover and beautiful voice ! : ]

I enjoy all your covers of NMH. Spot on

Don't stop playing!

[thewasteofpaint]

great job girly!! I am a fan [=

[sleslie23]

Damn girl, slow down. It ain't a race.

[thewasteofpaint]

@sleslie23 have you heard the orgiginal??? its played fast =p

[Vaynor]

Yeah it's still a tad fast but regardless, it's a cover not the actual song. It's a pretty fast song in the first place, this isn't that dramatically faster.

[LittleMissMoose]

You know what, this isn't that bad... your playing is legit... you just... are kinda creepy. LMAO i love the end too... not bad at all miss.

[kirakirastudio]

I can definitely tell you had fun doing it, and I think I can say that I had just as much fun listening. You put so much energy into this, it's fantastic!!! Amazing job :)

[shaiinar]

dear god...

[nikiyadig]

i dont even know what to say to this.

[Flamingo121]

LOL, solid but slow the fuck down ahahhaah

this instantly reminded me of my friend who once attempted to play a show high (he's the drummer)

he started playing so fast bandmates were like O-o the fuck are you doing..

[bicpenusa]

@Flamingo121 WOW! Somebody actually tried that!? you must be cool to know him

[deathspasm9]

one of the strangest things i have ever watched

[lloplop]

dude you have no idea how hard your comment made me laugh

[hoferstofer]

woah. this isn't guitar hero here...slow down and put some of your own feling into it

you look uncomfortable...enjoy it

[MelancholyDane]

4chan's /mu/ is watching awful covers of songs we like right now, but I have to say I really enjoyed this. Thumbs up. :]

[NaziJesus]

>implying this is good

[sexyshoes99]

dude, rule # 1 and 2.

[johnes]

Anne Frank is alive.

[ThePenguinMan1]

"Anne Frank is alive", holy shit thats funny

[FarmerChords23]

the fact a girl your age likes NMH makes it good

[xsvmaster]

I liked it when I was in Eighth Grade, and apparently, a high school crafted a play around it.

Younger and younger the listeners grow.

[gnrev]

ooo....not good.

[torroxceles]

That was...fast. Holy crap lol.

[Urasawa92]

I liked it

[walkonearth]

LOOOOOL SO INTENSE

[nirdier]

holy shit, she's on speeeeeeeeeeed!

[boyinthelibrary]

i love youtube covers.

[EsaEsLaChica]

Extremely bizarre (which is not a bad thing).

[EltBerserker]

are you anne frank?

[furchterregendX]

@EltBerserker They look identical.

[lockedknees]

@EltBerserker

hahah thats what i thought from the thumbnail. but girl, you need to ditch the classical training you got in vocal lessons. it does not work for this type of song.

[DiggyNBA]

@EltBerserker

LOL

She is really good.

[lolimtrippingballs]

This video cured me of my hatred of women. Thanks!

[ashrawi]

Hey, Bob Dylan is the worst singer in the world and he is also the definition of awesome. I just watched a clip of all of Picasso's greatest paintings and the previous commenter said he should get painting lessons. Nuff said. You rock. My favorite goose bump song, by the way.

[kmcseveney]

before you sing again please get leasons

[lolimtrippingballs]

You spelt it wrong fag. It's "lesions". You're welcome.

[kmcseveney]

you spelled it wrong too dumbass its "lessons"

[PuddzyBuddzy]

lol

[MrRazzah]

One amazing performance. I plan an doing my acoustic cover in a similar style.

[sh1mz0r]

I enjoyed your cover, although it was a bit fast. I would LOVE to hear you play a slow version of this. I bet it would sound amazing. :)

[kolaoncoke]

holland is a tough song to cover, stating that, you did a good job!

[saragurl45]

Hun slow down ^^ i know its a fast song but i'd like to hear you play and sing at a more natural pace overall it was good tho :D

[ri10fk]

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOL i was too busy laughing at your facial expressions to listen to your music

[chasethevdevil]

ahahahahahahahahahahahah i was thinking the exact same thing.

[zynesthesia]

you kinda look like anne. :-)

[Vader12Tater12]

good attempt, you shouldn't be so up tight (maybe it's just me, but you look a little freaked out)

just chill and let it come out, magnum doesn't sing that well (in a t, so don't worry about

[brightmatt2]

magnum sings amazin his voice is so incredible controlled for the notes he hits, try singin aeroplane and ull understand

[Vader12Tater12]

i can sing it.... but in a traditional sense (which is what the brackets would have said if my mouse pad wasn't stupid) he isn't good

cause he has a whiny voice. I like his voice, but if he went to america's got talent (or someother stupid tv show) he wouldn't get far because of that fact.

it's just stupid, imo. I was just trying to tell her to loosen up, "loosey goosey" - jack black "cause THIS IS ROCK!!!"

[EMPOWERDARFUR]

I love your hands, when I play guitar it's hard for me to keep from touching the other strings, but you make sure that you're playing the chord perfectly.

[westimer93]

Nice job. Definitely one of my favorite songs by neutral milk hotel.

[LucasLeorato]

trash...so annoying

[Sopalitico]

VERY NICE!!

[yayitsmangakasami]

i like it. good job capturing the energy ofthe song. i think one of the reasons NMH covers never seem quite perfect is becuse the way jeff mangum uses his voice. it's pretty hard to imatate, and you sorta made it fit your own voice :) sounds lovely dear

[toddod87]

Not bad.

[dreDREb13]

Holland, 1945 is the best song of the album. Every single instrument compliments another, and nothing is left unheard. It's so beautiful and powerful.

It's just hard to hear the song without everything else. A good cover, regardless, though.

[bigmac364]

goddamn i lost my capo

[lizzeh776]

pencil & elastic band man. best makeshift capo in the world. it's what I use.

[TheFifteenthStep]

This is an impossible song for one person to cover, so much energy in the original recording, impossible to to capture without full instrumentation and big energetic vocals.

[brandnewhate01]

:DD

[PAT095]

awesomely done! have more fun with it though. i know its prolly nerve racking with all these ass holes to put people down, but thats what nmh is all about, like a train about to fly off the tracks!!

[maddingo]

not bad at all

[d0rischiav0ne]

not bad, 4 stars. (:

[starkweather444]

this is better than the original.

[PantsRocket]

are you serious?

[Cougan86]

I think jeff mangum would be proud.

[PandaOnIce]

wow, not bad! I liked it.

[Idolhands7007]

great job. i know how hard it is to do this song.

[LovingMyMonster]

3/5

Guitar was decent, your vocals are a little shakey.

The song is a quick paced song, but you can still be relaxed, it helps.

[pkinasevych]

jeff mangum''s vocals were a little shakey. it works.

[luckydonis]

great job!!! thanx now i know hot to play it!!

[ndbull]

wow, she DOES look like Ms. Anne Frank. funny. but cool!

[jdundee]

First thing I thought was Wow, you look like Anne Frank. Nice cover, lots of energy!

[krebdj]

ehhh. jk you're awesome! 5/5.

[samuraiallen]

damn girl you strummin that guitar at the speed of light

haha

im suprised you can still have the breath to sing

[tiarnan17]

awesome job

[candyjunkie101]

great vid good singing. the part where you said 1234 sounded stupid. but good work!

[GlamorousGlue]

:'( Why?

[entropy1049]

Listen Girl- The ultimate compliment: This is one of my favorite songs, and instead of hating you for destroying it, I was head bopping and singing along-Good Friggin Work.

[mbehrmann1]

i love neutral milk hotel!

[platinumpenetrator]

Liked the drumming on the guitar at the beginning. You're right about the energy part; a lot of Mangum's songs need the trumpets and horns and whatnot to give them their "punch". This is a good cover, though.

[JA1492]

5 stars just for the info to the clip. very witty girl.

[brokenimages]

i cant stand keven devine so your in luck ..

;) rock on

[lloplop]

who the fuck is kevin devine?????

[drgonzos71]

Nice couch!

[cpriortips]

bitch, give up

[jebeebus]

ehh

[omniscientamnesiac]

lol ehh

[LeperAffinity]

lol

[supachazman89]

good effort cutie

[butlerKNOWSall]

awkward comment, creepy.

[LipanConjures]

5 stars

[pkinasevych]

best NMH cover I've ever heard

[tomvdveer]

You look like Anne Frank pretty cool

[sleepyat2am]

first thought into my head, lol

[justinruns]

looooooove this song, personal NMH favorite.

[neiladri]

That was some strong guitar action there too.

[braincontained]

Wonderful. Watching your videos (I only just started tonight) has been very emotional for me. It's a combination of hearing strong renditions of great NMH songs, nostalgia for my teenage years, and the fact that you remind me of one of my little sisters (she's in high school). That's all besides the point..anyways your covers are brilliant smile-makers. Thank you.

[jacobmrley]

impressive.  most impressive.

[thenewbabyjesus]

Yes! Finally justice!

[LittleFishChan]

I really love this song, and your cover of it is really impressive. I'm sure I'll be listening to it more in the future. Thanks for posting it; you clearly have talent. :)

[AIBasileus]

I won't say that you "captured the essence" of the song, but I think it's unrealistic to expect anyone but Jeff Mangum to do that. You put a unique, personal touch to it, and that's more than a lot of people can do.

[letiziamarie]

WOW!

[spiritprint]

enjoyed it. nice strummin

[freakespionage]

I liked this! :D

[kokeshidoll28]

You kind of look like Anne Frank with your hair curly, Did you do it like that on purpose? I have noticed your hair is straight in most videos. Its lovely:)

[kentd512]

so true...

[kokeshidoll28]

WOW This was amazing!

[reginaldoramjet]

wow nice job

[Accipiter22]

it's hard to tell if a cover of this song is good or not, because it was intentionally recorded fuzzy. I THINK this is a good cover, but it's hard to tell.

[ZalynStarr]

... i think your in the wrong key.... yeah... not being mean just saying so >_>

[stefanlytwyn]

ya exactly what you said, hard song to cover, but this is nice. right on ya

[Vincentehautesavoie]

you're hot

sorry but the cover is shitty

utube comunity do not cover these songs please

[HAILPLOTS]

I declare this win

[lazurviking]

what fret did you capo?

[ilovebrynmawr]

The third.

[pen549352042]

i agree with the info, most of the covers of this song are below par. you did a good job though, i don't know if you are supposed to have a capo on this song at all, though. i may be wrong, but i personally think it sounds better without the capo. but that is just me. kudos to you
