Meg & Dia - Foster The People "Pumped Up Kicks"

[iloveyouandmakeup]

:O I love this, but I think Mark Foster's acoustic version is still the BEST! Gosh, I love Mark and Foster the People;) sorry girls.

[imadethisforict]

[LaurymmaT09]

[nachodskymusic]

[lockedinsideurhsbox]

i think ive died and gone to heaven

[fromcity2coast]

Ugh I love these two so much.

[SuperGoodboy23]

the awkward moment when the song ends...

[MegaColby18]

@AndromechA Woah, woah, calm down, bro. It is good but not that good. That song is a classic.

[ItsRainingDonkeys]

i love this band. but not better than original.

this is too much

[LaurymmaT09]

Dia is awesome

[daisylabatch]

i like this better than the reagular verson

[katiecow3]

I can understand the words now.........

[LaurymmaT09]

@katiecow3 hell yeah

[LaurymmaT09]

Dia is soo awesome!!!!!

[JoseRafaelTorres1996]

awkward silence at the end xD

[DmbLuvz]

Are you kidding, the original is way better.

[efefrfrs]

Wow u just made this song a lot better keep up the good work

[bublegroban]

you guys should cover led zeppelin, like Going to California or What Is And What Should Never Be. That would be cool!

[krisbyeah]

@bublegroban Oh hell yes, marry me. I don't even care if you're not a dude.

[bublegroban]

@krisbyeah i m not a dude, fyi

[krisbyeah]

@bublegroban Then it'll be a civil union.

[forhours]

Beyond amazing

[XcoldhardsteeleX]

[mybestfriend46]

uploaded on my birthday <3

[Killinemkid]

LOL



[LadyDimples92]

oh my gosh! <3 this is love!

[bidhant]

MEG I <3 YOU

[mahmuchi1]

Foster the people's version is unbeatable, but in her voice it's a totally different song

[epinHAHA]

Dia has a unique voice that she can make the song different...<3 ur band..the best!!

[chiaLAdia]

His name's Carlo and yes he MATTERS! :P

[shaakirei]

she got the sparks when she sings

[indieglee261]

omg cannot believe they covered this! i luvs this song!

[meghan1006]

Interesting rendition, but I like the original better. There are just some songs some people should not mess with! But they are all talented.

[iSoFIyyy]

@bluerock1985

HAHA originals? listen to dia's band, meg & dia!!!! they're awesome!

[bluerock1985]

Dia has a way to make songs sound so differant and amazing!!!!!! Are there any Dia originals????

[StickySuperNova]

Better than the original <3

[ScenicShipwreckk]

Love Carlo forever.<3

[MelismaticMelody]

<3

[DmbLuvz]

She is really not much of what I hear all the time in LA... not bad... but .... nothing special.

[theroserette95]

this cover is amazing<3

[fivelazydogs]

@TheZhukster : Only the ones with good taste ;)

[TheZhukster]

People like this?

[Hawtpokkitz]

I'd love to be with any of the Frampton sisters, not just Meg or Dia.

[unicornkittypudding]

This is SOOOOOOOO good.

[DmbLuvz]

@unicornkittypudding Really? SO good? I think not. It's alright.

[caitlinkmurphy1]

Hey, guess what guys! I'm just listening to that one chick named Meg and that other chick named Dia and that other guy on the guitbox nobody seems to care about (who probably deserves to have a name) for the first time today.... and I'm just enjoying the music! Nobody cares about your petty little hipster arguments. Go stand in the corner, both of you.

[kcheng106]

@caitlinkmurphy1 the guy's name is Carlo Gimenez :)

[xxEyeDeeKayxx]

@caitlinkmurphy1 His name is Carlo . . . xD

[kawaii11313]

@caitlinkmurphy1 I know right? I just like the music, and so what if I only started liking them last summer, for all anybody ellse knows I'm a bigger fan than them. It doesn't matter how fucking long you like a song or band, it is still physically possible to like it.

[00mel11]

@caitlinkmurphy1 his name is Carlo

[00mel11]

@caitlinkmurphy1 oh fyi his the guitarist for meg & dia

[BeauDaFo]

@caitlinkmurphy1 His name is Carlo. :D

[imamylee93]

@caitlinkmurphy1 carlo

[Cheyenneezy]

@caitlinkmurphy1 That's Carlos!

[klchmhpe]

who is that guy that plays the guitar for them? he is cute

[staygoldnman]

I think Fueled by Ramen would really benefit from having them signed to their label. The Meg and Dia Band have honestly been one of the greatest bands i've ever listened to. Doghouse Records and Warner Bros. Records were both really stupid to drop them from their labels. I can't wait to hear their new material, Meg's sweet guitar licks and Dia's pure voice are the next big thing.

[jaimesrobles]

@staygoldnman Couldn't agree more!

[hadiez12345]

@staygoldnman I'm pretty much positive you haven't been listening to them for that long. This post sounds like someone who recently discovered them. Meg and Dia aren't currently signed to a label. Dia Frampton is signed to Universal Republic BY HERSELF

[mheiy005]

i hope, they make an album again, with meg and the band. :(

[hadiez12345]

@mheiy005 The next album is just Dia. It's coming out in December

[staygoldnman]

@hadiez12345 how could an album be just Dia when its the Meg and Dia BAND, genius. plus, they havent ever said anything like that. Dia sings, Meg plays guitar and sings too. without the band, Dia would only be a voice. But Dia's voice has developed with the band, that sound you hear is from them being a whole. so, you might wanna get your facts straight. just sayin

[hadiez12345]

@staygoldnman "Just wrapped up the album.Yay!Wrote about 70 songs since The Voice ended, and picked the top 12 to make it! You'll be able to hear the first single, "The Broken ones" in mid November and expect the album in December! Worked with some inspiring artists & producers, like Isabella Summers from Florence & the machine, Foster the people, David Harris (guitar for John Mayor), Meg Frampton, Greg Wells, Greg Kurstin, list goes on and on. Can't wait for ya'll to hear!" Dia Frampton

[hadiez12345]

@staygoldnman Since you call them the Meg and Dia band, I'm guessing I've been listening to them a lot longer than you have. Due to her success on the voice, Dia is doing a solo album. Labeled as DIA FRAMPTON. Not Meg and Dia. Learn your shit before acting smart about a subject, GENIUS!

[staygoldnman]

@hadiez12345 Actually, I guarantee you i've listened to them a lot longer, going on 5 years. So seriously, suck my fucking balls asshole. i referred to them as the band vs. Meg&Dia because commonly, thats what they've been known as when they joined warner bros. records, when they started getting a bit more popular. Try not to act like a holier than thou asshole. Again, it can't be a SOLO album if her fucking sister is a part of it, smart ass. Next time try not to be a douche.

[hadiez12345]

@staygoldnman You called them "The Meg and Dia Band". The only people I've seen that call them that are usually new to the band. Have you ever listened to an album that is just one artist? They have songs that say Ft. whatever other artist. That's what hers is going to say. There is going to be MAYBE 20 or 3 dongs with Meg and it will be FEATURING Meg Frampton. "and Dia BAND, genius." "so, you might wanna get your facts straight. just sayin" You acted like a dick before I did.

[hadiez12345]

@staygoldnman :O New album has been released. Have you seen the cover? Oh yeah, it says DIA FRAMPTON.

[mheiy005]

@hadiez12345 im excited about dia's album is it out now?..

[hadiez12345]

@mheiy005 It's amazing if you haven't heard it, and it was released the 6th.

[AndromechA]

This is better than the fucking original.

[pinksynth]

@AndromechA Ordinarily I'd say something sarcastic here but let's face it. As much as we all love Meg and Dia, you can't possibly say that three people sitting down to their guitars one day covering this song is even remotely tantamount to the hours of blood, sweat, and tears Foster the People probably put in at the studio. Recording music is an extremely hard thing to do. This is definitely not on par with the original.

[AndromechA]

@pinksynth I have nothing against the original, Foster The People wrote a great song to cover to, it's just I like this rendition of this particular song better than the original. singing covers of songs is different than actually writing the actual song. anyone can cover a song in their own style.

[LOLpalentina]

0:00 i made myself A FREE REPLAY BUTTON!! :D (I BROKE MY OTHER ONE...)

[XxLittleMonster13xX]

This just made the song even better... poor foster the people :/

[vampireweekendsnl]

If some1 could tell me the chords meg is playing that would be greatly appreciated haaha.

[ILOSTmyTooTH]

@vampireweekendsnl Two of my favoritest things in life summed up in your screenname. I would kiss you, but chords would suffice haha You can find anything and almost errthang at ultimate-guitar . com

[veniceb112]

i've always loved you guys, the song "Cardigan weather" still see's play on my ipod :D and like how the album "cocoon" showed great maturity in your songwriting skills.

[themusicollaboration]

SO GOOD, im jealous haha me and my friend just covered this song but its not even close to touching this one, we would be so honnored if you check out ours and gave us feedback:)

[wtf28]

i hear the original one at work all the time but it has nothing. like no substance. your guys' on the other hand is soooo freakin rad. it has so much feeling. :)

[puun14]

woah..

foster the people version is 'cool'

meg&Dia version make the song 'pretty' to hear.. :D

[ashleyfan894]

When I open the dictionary to "unique", I see a picture of Dia

[garyrodriguez3]

awesome great activity coming from a great band \m/ keep it up : )

[ronlover143]

I love!



[lilarticfox]

What does covers monday mean??(:

[confism]

@lilarticfox probably a band called Monday? :-)

[layzie508]

@lilarticfox they put out a cover every week.

[layzie508]

@lilarticfox they put out a cover every week.

[Robbery9548]

It'd be bomb diggidy if you could do a cover of "Cough Syrup" by Young the Giant!

[ghandtz]

better then the original (:

[sikksm93]

Why are people saying cover mondays "will be"? They already "have been" and "still are"

[PiggyRainbows]

Oh.

My.

God.

ILU.

[SebastianAndMilo]

Maybe "cover mondays" will be something Dia does but they just happen to be accompanying her on this one.

[HeyThereImTy]

Anybody else have to replay 1:25 - 1:30?

So good <3

[suspendedOak]

I hate to be the odd one out, but I didn't find this incredible.

Part of the greatness of the original song is that it's sung joyful, which adds insanity to the feel of the song, which is about a kid shooting someone.

This for me came across as aggressive. I love meg and dia, but this wasn't their best cover for me.

[Nathanial317]

Not really too nif of a fan of this song....but this was ok. I liked the rest of Dia's cover mondays better.

[ghandtz]

Way better then the original (:

[randomlauffer54321]

Dia, I absolutely love ur voice.. all 3 of u are really talented:)

[larrycampos1]

DONT GIVE A SHIT WHAT ANYONE HAS EVER SAID ABOUT Y'ALL. You guys have talent and have fun at what you do , and I love what you do. keep doing it.

[pizzacorp]

6 people wear pumped up sandals

[HelloYellowSky]

@pizzacorp seriously? you're gonna bring that comment garbage onto this video? leave that for other videos. Not theirs.

[pizzacorp]

@HelloYellowSky HI-5 Mate!!! Pretty sure you were one of the dislikers

[hobomoneygiver]

ahhhh meg and dia i love you guysssss! smilesmile happyhappy

[cladue07]

I seriously hate this song, but Meg & Dia made me hate it a little less! Love you guys! <3

[zenith0000006]

FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!

[xEmoShockx]

So much better than the orignial

[xEmoShockx]

Finally!

[JoshaLuke]

So excited to see another cover finally. Dia will always be The Voice to me.

[C0unterfeitHero]

This day was just horrible but hearing dia's voice made it a pretty good day.

[MJbeez33]

anybody know the chords to this song??

[amywmy]

@MJbeez33 they altered the chords but the basic chords are Em,G,D & A. You can use those 4 chords with capo on the 1st fret and it would sound like the original!

[houstonjly77]

@MJbeez33 looks like Em G D A, solo just using the Em blues scale starting around the 9th fret.

[crabmeat08]

@MJbeez33 E G D A7 wth capo on the 7th fret.. That's not how they played it tho. :)

[MJbeez33]

@crabmeat08 thanks!! I'll go try it out now! \ooo/

[crabmeat08]

@MJbeez33 actually it starts with Eminor, G, D, A7. Have fun! :) and dont forget the capo on the 7th fret

[lowrenwrecks]

I can't wait for Dia's album! I'm so happy Meg is contributing, too :)

[techfreak47]

@lowrenwrecks did she get a record deal ?? i really hope so...

[marioleon12345678910]

her voice is so amazing

[xCRYSTYLEx]

Her voice is perfect for this song !

[MsBrookeisme]

Sad Dia sisn't win the voice=( she was so awesome!

[MyNeighborisaPERV]

this is the greatest thing ive heard all week.

[ElectricRonin]

Mobile!!!!!!!!

[AZASN8SHUN]

Keep doin it Dia. :)

[polkadotjesss]

liked and favourited before i watched. love meg and dia AND foster the people <3

[bIewjob]

Bogoshipuh -3

[hancyliu05]

nice cover, and cute ending :)

[aimitomori]

i like Dia when i started watching "The Voice" but this cover ..i'm not impressed with her..she's like YELLING on the chorus...too bad...

[amcr420williams]

not Dia's best. in my opinion, sounds almost like she is trying to yell the chorus to overpower meg. and loganwgum is right should be called Meg & Dia Cover, not just Dia frampton.....NOT FAIR!

[twinkii04]

OMG. This is the best version EVER.

[shatteredxsean]

Didn't like this song until just now.

[ashleyfan894]

My favourite cover of this song!

[grandpoobaah]

Another great cover. Love the guitars and vocals. Beautiful

[amywmy]

simply lovely! :)

[gin012]

She looks like a doll! :3

[valereeCp15]

I missed the energy between all three of them! The explosion of energy at 0:46 makes me happy :3

[bobbysch1]

dia i love your music hope you go far hope blake shelton helps you on your record i cant wail for it :)

[crumpify]

what are the chords?

[Dollartute]

What happened at the end? lol

[MyNameIsJonnyLe]

Dia. Your hot.

[imkcruz]

Good to see Meg and Carlo again :3

[noct567]

Their voices are perfect for this song XD

[JustSmile417]

ahh there so gooood! i freaked when i saw they had a video up

[UlquiorraAvarice]

Awesome song and cover!! Although I agree with most, this should be called Meg & Dia.

[MelendezTelevision]

those 2 people suck

[argusfilks]

The long-awaited return of epic!Meg on guitar. And of course Carlo. Brilliant, as always. I'm just glad to see the M&D gang together again. <3

[vindicatedxxx]

I want to be that girl who says that this SHOULD be called "Meg AND Dia with Carlo Gimenez cover"! I hope this solo career doesn't override the band. I miss them so much.

[Sincitysqt702]

I'm so uber happy to see Meg joining in on the covers. Great cover.

[asianator101]

i wanna cum when u sing the chorus

[richboihawj]

Someone with a studio please get them into a recording session of this song!

[bronzekitty26]

I haven't heard your voice in so long! Oh gosh I needed that.

[ssimx5]

Always look forward to listening and watching new stuff by you guys. Dia, you rock! Please come to the DC area soon.

[StandingSnow]

i love the way she sang this, very amazing as usual.

[Dylanastasia]

Wait Is Dia from The Voice? Shit. How did i miss that?

[BrianJayDesign]

Please let us know when you have your new album out Dia Frampton! I will buy it on iTunes! :)
