The Rocket Summer covering Maps by the Yeah Yeah Yeahs

[ZYOE]

came here to talk shit, well.. with a predisposed opinion. but, this is actually decent.

[savvyandskye]

Bryce, you rocked it! :)

[fulishfu12]

@mollyforever37 well based off of your angst filled rant, you like this cover and that in itself would be a judgment. and i wasn't aware that everything i said had to benefit me in some way. i'll keep on freely expressing my opinions and you can go on doing the same

[fulishfu12]

@mollyforever37 youre judging him on the internet as well. only difference is our judgments differ

[yoghurtlowfat]

great cover so far :D

[fulishfu12]

i don't believe him when he sings 'i'm straight'

[eleanorrigbyism]

@fulishfu12 I do...and you should...know why? Because he's married....annd to a woman...as expected...I found out and was severely disappointed. Because he's wicked. So hush :)

[Indy7861PunkGrundge]

WRONG!!!!!!!!! DOSENT EVEN SOUND LIKE IT FAG!!!!

[agess3191]

@Indy7861PunkGrundge

The idea of a cover isn't to sound like the original. It is about making it your own, which he did.

[ZagsElite]

its 1.5 steps downtuned in key of E, someone figure out the chord variations he's using:

youtube.com/watch?v=Wo87Sp7tv1­k&feature=related

[ZagsElite]

is he tuned 1.5 steps down.. or is it a non standard tuning completely

[ScottDuh]

I love you Bryce.... i really do <3 You are soo good. its unbelievable!!

[Rebekkabakken]

This is way better than the orginial! I could listen to bryce's voice all day long.

[imsimonify]

awww i like this version better than the original to be totally honest. the yeah yeah yeahs are awesome, but this...i dunno, this one kills :)

[jewels390]

guysssssssssss what's the chords?

[xabbbby]

every time i watch this it gets even more perfect <3

[mtotheHo]

Where can I download this version? I downloaded the Hello Somebody album but that version is really over-produced. And this one is just raw & beautiful.

[TheBre93]

hey, does any one know the chords he plays???

[thelittlemnm]

his voice, gives me the chills. :)

[emiliecool321]

woah wait he's a right handed, but he's playing left handed... that's awesome !

[erinole]

@emiliecool321 he's playing right-handed...the entire video is just mirrored. you can see the poster in the background is backwards too.

[emiliecool321]

@erinole

ohh lol, that's good to know.

[souljabarb]

Bryce never ceases to amaze me.

[karolinesofiehennum]

You are amazing.

[kaydee713]

love it :D

[hairspray199]

Dear Bryce Avery,

You are an amazing guy with real talent.

God Bless

[plumgummistar]

his voice is so beautiful.<3

[rzrback434]

AWESOME

[ykjunebug]

SUPER psyched that he decided to record it and release it :D

[hannahbueller]

i love youuuu bryce avary. :)

[MiniGilbert0]

this version is way better than the original....by far

[mucalic]

[hungry4dorama]

His voice is so beautiful.

[katiejrod]

this is one of my favorite things. i ripped the cover and it has a HUGE play count on my iPod. great job Bryce. i absolutely love what you're doing.

[TheVeronlynne]

Karen and Bryce voices are great. Love em' both <33

[BleedingGumsJazz]

Great cover!! This is going to my favourites =)

[WAWISITO360]

[x0toarly0x]

your beauty as a singer, musician and human being is unmatched.

[LadyLeviticus427]

one of my favorite songs!! yeah yeah yeahs...

maaaaapss wait they don't love you like i love you...

[linhsters]

can this be downloaded??

[Hollie1818]

They dont love you like I love you. <3 hahahaa. see you in 5 days.

[shoreline0918]

Bryce/The Rocket Summer [true] followers don't expect anyone to understand him, his music, the way he makes us feel or what his talent does for our souls and hearts. Stop hating.

[willy8550]

poor

[hellogoodfrieend]

Bryce > life

[somethingcorp93]

hey... @kidmanifesto, get off bryce's jock. if you think he ruined the song, then you're just plain stupid.

[DeadJ0ker27]

Now i know how it would have sounded had the backstreet boys wrote it.

[NeverShoutAlex1]

:):):):):):):):):):):):)

[saakuradruid]

Does anyone have the tabs bryce is playing? cuz it isnt the way the yeah yeah yeah's do it and i like bryces way and want to play it. would greatly appreciate and help.

[ykjunebug]

Is he playing left handed...or is the camera flipping the image?

[kidmanifesto]

this song has been repeatedly stabbed by way of this horrific cover.

way to ruin a great song crapbag.

[superjonster]

@kidmanifesto lol dude do you not know who bryan avary is? do you not know his style of music? youre a douche for saying that he ruined it. everyone has their own style and you cant say shit like that, you narrowminded idiot. appreciate the differences dont compare. you are the cancer of the world.

[breakroombrawl]

@superjonster

While I agree for the most part with what you were saying, I thought I'd point out that the man's name is Bryce Avary, not Bryan. Just sayin'...

[custardODP1989]

@superjonster his name isn't bryan. Check yourself before you wreck yourself.

[breakroombrawl]

@kidmanifesto

Hey here's an idea! Don't leave comments on videos you don't like, just rate it and move on with your life. The Hell is the matter with people these days?

[htmlshotgunx]

I love everything about this.

[Saakuradruid4]

wow amazing! i lthink Bryce's version is way better than the original

[xxPorcupine]

i love how he puts all this emotion and effort in to his songs, even though they're not his own.

[foreverluckky]

so great! so glad I saw him sing this live :)

[KatieSings89]

his voice is true heaven! )

[DanceDance911]

omg! wow! Bryce you always seem to blow me away =] ur sooo amazin'!<3

[sokatiesaid]

it doesn't matter how he moves, and how his faces look. his voice is purely amazing.

[righthurboi]

Bryce is such a cutie[:

[ruderocker101890]

I watch this movie once a day or more. No lie haha

[m3lanch0l1c]

i love the rendition. but the way he moves his body as he sings makes me laugh. silly :P

[secondfromfalling]

@m3lanch0l1c most people do that man when they sing

[kayninphotophreak]

femaniane:: I made the same exact ringtone like 2 days ago on that site!! :DD I LOVE IT!!!

This song, just by him, freakin amazes me. WAY better than the original song. CC:

[KisssTheCurb]

ohh Orange :)

[viperx68]

this made me like the song more than I thought I did haha. awesome job

[LucyyyxD]

B, you said you were coming to England in the autumn... dude, it's December! ;)

[Kingpinz0r]

good tune. creepy video lol

[TheABCJ]

yes i noticed how creepy his faces are..... i saw him perform this in concert and he always looks like he's in pain :p lmao... but his voice is great

[Kingpinz0r]

@TheABCJ oh definately, his music is pretty amazing for the most part. but he's just to close to the screen in this video hahah.

no offense though bryce, you're dope

and i pretty much listen to this version just as much as the yeah yeah yeah's. so yeah, haha, it's a very good arrangement

[secondfromfalling]

@Kingpinz0r  everyone does that jerks

[Kingpinz0r]

@secondfromfalling i'm confused, did you just call me a jerk?

if so i'd have to say i'm really confused as i'm full of nothing but good vibes for TRS

[BallaHQ]

how can i download this?

[shainalove]

I saw you last night!!!

I really don't have any words to explain how amazing this song was.

I love you!

[JohnnyXcash415]

omg thank you so much!

[JohnnyXcash415]

thank you sooooo frigging much!! :]

oh and if by chance do you know if

he is in a band of himself?

[JohnnyXcash415]

i know! he was in the back which sucked cause I was all the way in the front and I couldn't see him! :[

umm and do you know the name of the bassist that was playing with him?

[goodbiggles]

dude,, lots of your official music videos aren't avalabe in my country due copyrights what's up with that??

other then that, you definetly held up to my expectations, you did awsome!

[odondietcokes]

loooooove

[BlueShark1415]

[odondietcokes]

<3 love love love

[ohferrealthatsneat]

sang perfectly. i saw him perform this yesterday in Pittsburgh in the crowd of everyone. I have the video uploaded. Gosh he's so amazing.

[XcaliforniaXdreaminX]

just saw him play this live last night. it was so amazing, i almost cried <3

[TRSjulie]

lucccccccccccccccccccccccccccc­cky.

[lemon311]

Oh gosh just lost my load

[brounpowerranger218]

Killer vocals Bryce!

[dahicaro15]

your cover is so much better than the original!

HOW CAN WE GET THIS VERSION?

[TRSjulie]

listen 2 youtube . com,

that's what I use hah

[dahicaro15]

wow... I won't carry my laptop everywhere I go just to listen to the song! I'd rather having the song on my phone (:

[TRSjulie]

that's why you take the file and put into an mp3, using that website and then put it on your ipod or whatever you have.

[Casmen62]

can you download this version anywhere?

[ana2]

how can i get his version???????????????????

[cocoapuffs625]

I think you are awesome.

And i like this version way better then the original!!! :D

[trauermusik]

i love your room

[xxjackiee909]

i love the original, but this is pretty good too.

he gaves a different feel to the song.

[xoxCarlyx7]

absolutely beautiful as usual, but dude...when's the new album coming out already!?

[TRSjulie]

It's been pushed back til 2010 ):

But he says he'll probably be putting an EP out.

Or at least that's what I heard.

[x0setfree0x]

its true =]

[CrossCountry00]

I want this on my iPod! So wonderful!

[igolian]

Great F'ing cover. He made it his own. Best version I have heard.

[Annafishy322]

Bryce's version is a trillion times better. No one can ever top him! He is absolutely amazing in every way.

[marywinsatlife]

ray of sunshine avary.

[rachelface5589]

his voice is not really my taste, i definitely prefer yyys version, but this guy certainly kicks ass at freakin guitar! nice job!!

[sportzchick2211]

i like the original, but i like bryce's version too. i think the point of doing a cover is to do it your way. The way he sings it is ALL bryce.

[PunkyBritt]

my god his arms are epic... his voice blows my mind... yummeh beautiful man

[Christianrkchk89]

i cannot stand the "yeah yeah yeahs" so bryce makes this song sound amazingggggggggg :D great job!

[LucyyyxD]

I loved this song before Bryce covered it but i love it just that much more now <3

[SheenaKC]

i don't know what it is

but you make everything sound happy.

and it makes me happy :)

[MahoganyMarmalade]

It is a very good cover, I do like it, but I don't see how anyone could say it's better than the original. The original of everything is always best, and without the original, theres no covers :]

[15flask15]

Just because its the original doesnt make it better. It just comes down to preference. What you prefer. How can one prove one song is better than another? You cant. Im sure lots of people like this cover a lot more than the original and the other way around as well. It just comes down to what appeals to you.

[TRSjulie]

The way he does it kicks certain people's taste more than the others. There are people who are completely in love with Bryce's music and his voice. I personally love this song more. His voice and way of preforming just does something to make this ever better(:

[htmlshotgunx]

This is so incredible!!

[ellieexgrace]

hah, i love the studio beard.

i think its a great cover.

i like it better than the original, to be honest.

can't wait for the album!(:

[TRSjulie]

he's keeping the beard!

:O

[ciwwafroxx]

i looove thiss.

hes extremely talented.

[taylorbsstt]

This is different.

I am not sure I like it more

than the original, but it's

not bad. It's pretty good.

[TheLowercasejames]

AWESOME!!!

[LaurieStyle1]

Beautiful.

[niabl94]

i think i love him :')

[williamshouldmarryme]

Absolutely fabulous! :]

[nobody908]

i'd really like to learn how to play this... if anyone can figure it out?

[deucewku71]

agreed....this is so much better than the original.

[SuperMusiic]

Best version ever....better than the original.

[amyisseriousbizz]

HELLO BEARD.

[JocyLatina]

I can't wait until you start on your next label.. :)

Your voice is amazing!

I swear i can fall asleep with you singing this song and a smile on my face :)

[cabooseistheshiz]

I don't care what anyone else says, this is one of the best covers I've ever heard.

[johnopig]

you're my hero!

[xChesskitty]

this is so weird lol... I love TRS & Bryce's voice is beautiful but I'm not sure about this cover, it doesn't work too well. He seems to be absolutely lovin' it though so good for him!

& when did he get so muscular?!

[veronica1268]

he's always been muscular, lol.

he goes to a gym <3

[AshxAdalia]

HOLY CRAP I LOVE THIS SONG. Like a lot. Not my favorite cover of it, but I love Rocket Summer so who cares right? :]

[32hoopsdude]

haha "jodiefoster" whatta punk. i think its just as awesome as the rest of your songs, even though its a cover. good job at being able to play a butload of instruments.

[sweetkiss951]

[nogopromo]

Bryce is amazing live. I'd only been a fan 3 weeks when I saw him last year in Leeds, UK. Incredible. Such an intense little gig
