Clap Your Hands Say Yeah (Acoustic) - Upon This Tidal Wave

[Thoreau2381]

What a great Violent Femmes cover band!

[herrnenne]

I think this song is the one that makes me have to get a youtube downloader... crap..

[rainydaysphotogroup]

awesome.



[TheGuidesJob]

brilliant



[1991evanc]

im pretty sure since alec wrote and sung the song he should get to decide what to call it.

[mshollymolly1]

WOW !!! amazing !

[MrJONESY412]

Love this! A good sunshine song

[MrJONESY412]

Love this! A good sunshine song

[IHateYouCauseYouSuck]

he changed the melody. if he wanted to sing a different song then he should have changed the fucking title. this is why i hate lives.

[Masmak]

@IHateYouCauseYouSuck  If you wanted to hear exactly the same version of the song then you should've listened to the fucking record.

[Manwithcam]

@IHateYouCauseYouSuck God dude, calm down. Life will continue. Go listen to the record.

[ArcadeFire5]

@IHateYouCauseYouSuck Or music is a constant flowing state of change and growth. I think it's lovely.

[rossmclean88]

@IHateYouCauseYouSuck music is meant to be live.. simple as that

[dolcevespa1]

if you can take 4 chords and make it into genius then there is no argument...he does that in the same way as Jeff Magnum. It's a beautiful piece and it's his...no one elses...that's hard to do.

[tolla02]

I dont know why but i love his voice... XD

[ModuloRam]

Los amoooo!!!!! me encanta despertar con esta música!

[egcm21]

muy bn

[jeffreyhulswit]

I like the people who bother to comment on CYHSY. It is certain none of them have heard either of their albums and have no musical scence whatsoever. piss off and have fun listening to the new Kelis album!

[papatia]

@jeffreyhulswit hell yeah! that new kelis album was the jam!

[astroboirap]

wtf with that other guys huge toxic crusader goonies guy forehead?!

[itakeatest]

this song sounds better acoustic

clap your hands and say yeah rock

and this song rocks too

[Mien87]

this is even better than the cd version =)

great band

[DorisWonderful]

awesome version

[joe818]

if your gonna diss Alec's voice dont fucking comment.

i actually love his voice.

[dudleycunningham]

Thanks, one of best songs of last decade; just listen to the words. Might even prefer this slowed-down version to the studio.

[mattengland85]

fucking garbage

[itakeatest]

@mattengland85 your fckin garbage this song rocks

i think you should get your brain check i think it has past its expirary date i think you should get a knew one and make sure the new one acualy works okay

[daxmiller35]

good guitar player, but my god, he really does sound like he's passing a kidney stone every other word he sings. It's not innovative, it's just terrible singing.

[xxSchrutedItxx]

u know he is playing like 4 chords in this song right (G C D Em)?

[tableface0157]

@xxSchrutedItxx u know nobody cares right? doesnt have to be complex to be good

[xxSchrutedItxx]

@tableface0157 no one is saying playing 4 chords doesn't make a good song. I wouldn't be here if I didn't like the song. what I am saying is that playing what he's playing doesn't necessarily make him a good guitar player. I'm sure he's a great musician. IMO, if you're going to commend guitar players, go watch Clapton or something.

[MrWyattAP]

@xxSchrutedItxx hah... or Pat Metheny. Rock musicianship is shit.

[JayAreGoBOOM]

@xxSchrutedItxx you're a musical fucking GENIUS

[xxSchrutedItxx]

@JayAreGoBOOM I try.

[easyfriend71]

It really sounds so much like Loudon Wainwright, actually.

[harison92]

sounds like bob dylan.

[neobob187]

@harison92 Lol plz don't compare this to Bob Dylan.

[dropgod26]

@neobob187 lol, it totally sounds like bob dylan, haha

[dropgod26]

@dropgod26 the music makes up for his voice though, hehe

[harison92]

it made me think of Bob Dylan's style, im not comparing.

[vidooch]

great video!

[illidanwashere772]

CHILD STAR :D

[Maylias]

wow, i realy love this version. They are always great <3

[cocacolalemon01]

Incrível,voz muito boa, a beira do desafinado mas com classe!

[mbpaschoal]

genious!

[GunsOnRoof]

I don't know if im being ignorant or not, please correct me... Is CYHSY indie or alternative or both what, because i always thought they were alternative.

[vcshort1]

i think their musicians.

[jamiswallis]

@vcshort1 Notice from the grammar police. It's they're as in they are, not their.

[sucramnormark]

Does it even matter?

[mattbrown12345]

YOU"RE AWESOME

[Aladinane86]

haha you're a lolcat!

[livesayallen]

they are grundge.

[Haigkng]

this is post hardcore rap, clearly.

does their genre really change anything?

[mattbrown12345]

no one knows for sure

you were so brave for asking

\

[GunsOnRoof]

Ha, thanks. I was just asking and i'm getting abuse and thumbs down. To be honest it was only to give them a genre on my I-pod.

[greengiant123]

That's the stupidest question I've ever heard.

[Jimm0In0Space]

I'd say indie.

[PeterYorkProduction]

just a bit....

[HempForPresident]

awesome version. what a great song.

[cameron734]

i love this song sooooooo much

[aiikedo]

my favorite is Over and Over Again (Lost and Found) :)

[kdaly100]

As a CYHSY fan it is great to see one of the best niche indie bands play excellent music unplugged as well. Alec Ounsworth puts music on a different (not better) plane that makes listeners actually listen and discerne lyrics.

[AndreaJordan]

Fantastic.

[aiikedo]

haha, his voice is funny to listen to. i just discovered CYHSY and theyre really good.

[guitarbum37]

what was your breakthrough song? mine was skin of my yellow country teeth.

[earthstrum]

Mine was Is This Love? :p

[Lindyhops17]

mine is Heavy Metal. I've heard better since, but that song dragged me into their loveliness.

[greengiant123]

ooh now lets whack each other off to Satan said dance. But only if you're a member of the fan club,; normal people aren't aloud.

[Jaiv74]

Sometinhg new! Thanks

[bruninja]

i like it, but they seems so ...drunks!!lol

[pedrodedios]

[tdottim]

Fucking Wow.

[iHeartVX]

[lapuntadelfin]

[Schepf]
