I wish people would stop acting like their opinion is fact. News flash! Just because You don't like the song doesn't mean it's bad. dumb-asses, Furthermore, who the hell are you people to say someone can't sing?
Cover resembling what the meaning of cover is. Good cover is good. Haters hating just because they either can't do better or they don't know actual music let alone the meaning of what doing a cover of a song is. This video just about has everything XD.
I give them credit for putting a different spin on this song and not trying to copy the original like so many cover songs seem to do. The original is still the best but this version is interesting and still good.
This guy was on "Don't Forget the Lyrics". I said this guy can't sing and it's funny, then I realized who he was. Needs too much work behind the scenes to sound ok. All their songs sound the same and they ruined this one. I don't know how you can possibly ruin this song, but he did. Seems like a nice guy, though.
@tprime95 Sense? Really? Since sense and since are both valid words in the spellchecker. (Read automatedautolazydictionary) and since you did not have the sense to check your words with a spellchecker AND a human spellchecker, I am forced to call INTERNETFAIL!!! Please do not be too terribly incensed, since you seem to lack the sense to use a dictionary. Please notice my intentional misspellings. Twice...
WOWOWOWOW. I just found an awesome version of this song done by the young band CASTLECOMER. I advise any lovers of Irish musicians who can sing harmony to take a look.
I'm pretty sure that he's basically been friend-zoned, therefore making him like a brother to her, while he's dreaming of being more than that, an impossible dream.
I think it's more like he used to be such a jerk to his sister, and now he wishes things were different. I can understand this feeling. Forget about the lyrics to the song, it's more the overall message of the song, Brown Eyed Girl. His sister had brown eyes, and he misses her. How difficult is it to get it?
i think its like how he remembers that him and his sister used to be really close, and now they arent at all connected, and he misses spending time with her. All of you who think incest are sick fucks:)
Does it matter who she is? Shes got a hot ass, thats all that matters. Honestly I think Everclear just wanted to make something a bit vague up for interpretation for a song that is quite straightforward. Attempting their own spin on it.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
More proof why everclear should never be allowed near musical instruments. This song is a "remake" only in same sense that rappers "remake" the music they "sample" for their songs. If they had really wanted to "remake" it and "update the song they would've used the Brown Skinned Girl title and lyrics as it was originally written before racist record company execs forced the change.
I would like to get some feedback on a song I made the other day, I know this is not the correct place to do this, but youtube deleted all the "groups" and we've been screwed ever since XD . I hope you guys could check out this song and leave your feedback. I'll help me a lot.
Indeed, partially. She was too caught up in "what she wants" vs. "what will be" to understand that no one is perfect, so while one should settle for less, all people must understand that we are all human. They love one another. She had hours into her banner, and he spent 2 seconds ruining it, only to feel truly bad about it. I would bet that with a bit of forgiveness on both sides, they would be great. This would be even better if applied to most people...
@saxman1019 this is not incest, only a brother who cares about his sister and longs for "the old days" you are blind if you cant see that. (or perhaps an only child who never got any affection. watch it again knowing that he is her brother.. i promise you will see afecttion rather then obsession. (that is, if have have a brain that can contemplate such a thing.
@shezw00 I agree with you.... the video is awesome but it doesn't with the lyrics.... "Making love on the green grass, behind the stadium with you"..... Personally i would still like the song even if the video was incest...
No what I think is he is the big brother and he is trying to watch out for her because he loves her a lot and doesn't want anything bad to happen to her and at the end when the guy proposes he realizes she ok now and he doesn't have to watch out for her!
@joelyfisher no i think he is just like a normal brother who is looking out for his sister and all brothers never really like the guy your sister is dating
hahaha i get it! he's just tryin to watch her back! i read the comments while the video was loading and i thought she was gonna get raped or some shit at the end but now it's all better
Oh Art how I love thee! LOL~! PLEEEEAAAASSSSEEEE come back to Montana and play for us! I saw you all once my daughter and I need to see you all again! Sincerely, Your two most obsessed brown eyed girl fans in MT *wink wink* LOL!!!
@sdbodyboarder Yeah they were still in the band you are correct. They were also in the band for the next two albums - Songs from An American Movie pt 2 and Slow Motion Daydream.
@thedoctorsfeziscool the whole time it was his sister. he was just a protective brother who knows he's going to have to let his sister be all on her own.
