  • fucking marry me

  • One day, can you sing again? :(

  • I also downloaded this song in June of 07. Ever since then it has become one of my favorite go-to songs over the years. Ive listened to it hundreds and hundreds of times. It is still so beautiful to me and never gets old.

  • According to my MP3 library, I downloaded this song is June 2007. So I guess I found it shortly after you uploaded it. Here I am, four years later, I found the song, listened to it and remembered how beautiful it was. Since I didn't tell you in June 2007: nice job dude. The singing, playing and arrangement are all lovely.

  • i just cant get enough of this cover

  • There were parts where you sounded kinda like Ben. Bravo man, bravo.

  • Awesome and beautiful, what more can i say!..

  • Truly amazing, I love the fact you've covered a song using an uncommon instrument. I also like the fact your voice just suits the harp very well. This is my first time seeing a guy play the harp, and I've got to say, it's pretty rad. :)

  • I am wondering why you don't share your talent with us anymore..

  • ♥♥ fuckin beautiful♥♥

  • i'll marry you

  • @erincruse But I'm supposed to die alone in a dilapidated old house full of cats. :( Marrying you and being happy would screw all of that up.

  • @sosogood

    Hurray! There's more people out there who want to end up being old and having lots of cats :3

    I first watched this vid like, 2 years ago, it makes me feel so old and nostalgic. You really have a talent, you really do.

  • i'm going to marry you.

  • this is so beautiful :') can you do some new harp covers?

  • awesome. Your voice with Harp is amazing. good choice for instrument to accompany your wonderful voice =) I'm learning Harp at the moment and i can't say i've ever been so happy to play such an instrument.

  • @lonaldness I understand 100%. I wish I could put into words how euphoric the first year of learning was. It was painful, and a lot of times infuriating... I remember all those blisters, with the occasional "pop!", where I'd look over to see red splattered and running down the strings. But honestly, I've never been so happy to learn something new, not before or since. Wish I could go back and do it all over again.

  • @sosogood HA! so true. I haven't quite yet experienced bleeding fingers. I did, however, have the blisters to show. I suppose Harp is the perfect instrument to learn. You may become so infuriated with it, but it doesn't take very long before you start to play again and zone into it's sound. That's what I love. I can never stay angry for long. The sound is just too beautiful. How long have you played for?

  • @lonaldness (1/2) Shit! 4 months later and I'm just now seeing your comment? Apologies... Well, when I recorded this (2007) I'd been playing for two years, but had only taken one year of lessons.

    After I made this video, I pretty much stopped playing harp altogether. Three years passed without me ever really touching it. But, just a couple months ago, I caved. I couldn't put it away forever, haha. It's now sitting right across from me here in my bedroom, with a set of new strings.

  • @lonaldness (2/2) You're dead-on, though. There's no way you can stay mad at the thing for long. It's too damn beautiful. : P And "zone into its sound" is true to life, too.. so easy to get lost in it. How long have you played?

  • I clicked it because I thought, "Harp cover?!? You gotta be kidding me. This will be hilariously awful." Boy, was I wrong! I'm truly shocked by how much I love this. Your voice is very hypnotic. Keep singing, k! The harp is pretty impressive as well.

  • This is too good.

  • 7 people missed the liked button

  • Amazing

  • so good

  • i never comment but jesus christ. this is heavenly

  • you are god.

  • @SuperSwift72 If I'm god, humanity's fucked.

  • I hope you know that I listen to your cover of this song every day on my ipod. :)

  • I love you and your voice :D

  • also, i put my finger on it. at times you've got a will oldham thing going on, sometimes you break through into maynard james keenan, other times... other stuff.

  • Hahah, well I do love me some Maynard Keenan. I'd like to do a harp cover of Orestes or The Hollow sometime before I die, or really just anything off Mer de Noms. Thanks for the feedback!

  • i really like the way you pronounce your words. it isn't the way ben gibbard says his words, but it's also unique like his is. it's very pleasant and goes very well with your reharmonization of the tune.

  • @spatz0r Thank you! I usually get shoved into the Gibbard-sphere, so I'm glad you recognize a distinction there. I appreciate the feedback.

  • Wow- I really like your style. Great cover.

  • this is amazing.

  • The best cover of this song I've seen on YouTube. Well done, sir.

  • Your songs' been marked inside my heart and even my life, it can't be easily erased for good=] Since last time I heard your cover of Duvet, I thought that you have got a long way to go for advances and today you have finished part of it. Congratulations, hope you'll be a professional and wait for your new covers again, I'll come regularly xd

  • I think I just fell in love with you.

  • amazing im struck with awe!!!!! ^______^ cuute and talented

  • You and your music are very beautiful :)

  • Sosogood is Soooo Soooo GOOD!!

  • i first listened to your cover over a year ago, and continue to be overwhelmed by it every time i listen. stunningly beautiful. thank you so much for creating this!

  • omg i've never seen anything like this.

    amazing.

  • This is the best cover I've seen on a harp.

    You should perhaps concern cover "Rabbit Heart"by Florence and the Machine. I would love you for that!

  • Hey I've had this on my iPod for ages now and I just wanted to let you know that its my most played song. I completely love this cover to bits, its just genius.

  • that was awesome man!

  • I won't let go I won't let go .... of this version ever! thank you! I love harp melodies and this song...to have combined the 2 would've never occured to me. extremely creative and such a beautiful voice you have (-:

  • dude, awesome

  • its just simpley beautiful.

  • though i've had a youtube account for years, i've never left a comment on someone's video before.

    this song is one of my favorites [even though it's kinda old], and seeing a harp cover piqued my interest, so i checked out the video. i really liked the chords you used for the vocal sections, and i equally liked the melodies you plucked in between verses. as a pianist, i know it's hard to sing while playing an instrument. i just like this cover a lot as a whole. amazing!

    good job! :)

  • Thanks a lot!

    Yeah, it's really hard for me to play full-on melodies with my right hand while I'm singing... Left hand's no problem for me, but with my right I can only do basic little patterns while I'm singing, nothing dynamic or unique. Guess it just takes practice? Funny thing is I'm right-handed, so I dunno what's up with that.

    Thanks again for your comment, though. Glad you posted! I appreciate it.

  • you are really amazing. Well done and they are right you should record it!

    More please

  • really excellent.

  • Tu es vraiment Doué ;)

    Continue sur ta lancée :)

  • This is beautiful. Great job.

    :)

  • I heard you play this over a year ago and I still love listening to it. :] Your cover always cheers me up, thank so much for being a great musician and singer.

    Ashtyn

  • Hey, I remember you. Thanks a lot for your comments! Much appreciated, really.

  • This is actually very beautiful!

  • That's actually amazing...

    You should record it...I'd so buy that xD

  • n yer technique is okeh for not playing for a year nd stuff :D

  • where did ye get the notes from? id like to play this one too.

  • My goodness, this is beautiful.

    Well done, mate!

  • congrats mate love the cover. really liked the way you play the harp..

  • Have you learnt Tomb Raider for the harp? I mean - you made the sheet music, after all.

  • either the image is backwards or the harp is on the wrong shoulder

  • Haha, the image is backwards; I was shooting through a wall mirror.

  • omg . . . . Your amazing. . and your voice.

  • amazing

    i always come back to this video

    you are a hero

    ~Joel

  • brilliant.

  • actually brilliant

  • Psh. Fuck the traditional guitar cover. This is amazing. :D

    Wonderful voice, too. You do Ben Gibbard right.

  • very talented, I would love to hear you play some of the resident evil themes on the harp. you would master it no problem.

  • Let me have your children, pleaseeeee. I want them to sing this well.

  • i cant stop listening to this

  • the comments about your voice being bad arent true its awesome man

  • Truly beautifully done.

    I love it!

    x

  • amazing...please do more songs with your harp :)

  • wow.

  • ;o; You're so amazing~!!!

  • You're very talented. I'm impressed :)

  • I love your voice, style(harp/piano), and the way you say things! I just love it all! PLZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ make more!!! I want more!! lol Really, dude, your amazing, and your voice is so addicting! You should really make more covers or even do some original. You have a fan in me!

  • seriously, amazing.

  • This is beautiful. I love this. You should do some recording with Piano and Harp.  And yeah, sing more. You've got a great voice. You should definitely cover more songs with Harp. This is awesome.

  • I like this better than the original.

  • This is marvelous. I've never seen a vocal cover with a harp accompaniment before. Very cool.

  • seriously one of the best covers ive seen on youtube!!

  • Pick up your harp and give us some pink floyd wish you were here or somethingfrom the wall please?

  • I really hope you record yourself playing more  beautiful music on the piano and harp.

  • amazing :]

  • I love how you covered this with a harp. Uncannily fantastic. Good job. :)

  • Beautiful singing.

  • Thank you so very much for letting others download this beautiful piece of art for free. I love you

  • Absolutely. I'm all for sharing. God curse the day we put a price on all art. Thanks for your comment!

  • That says a lot about your character and I completely agree with that line of thinking. Too often art is viewed only for it's monetary value rather than it's intristic value.

  • Great cover man, that was beautiful. Does the song amazing justice. All I could do afterwords was click on your "more from:sosogood" looking for more harp covers. MAKE MORE GIBBARD HARP COVERS!

  • omg!!!! i love it! ♥ awesome

    well done

  • Is that a Lyon & Healy Prelude you've got there?

    I have the same harp.

    Nicely done. Let's be pals or something.

  • holy shit, that was beautiful.

  • I am in love with you.

  • Sweet. Love rocks.

  • this is an amazing cover.

    thank you soo much!

  • please play a joanna newsom song!

  • Ohh, nice proposal. I've always been a fan of "Sprout and the Bean." The harp strings are broken right now, but maybe once I get them fixed...

  • AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING

    I play the harp too (not as near as good as you though) because I've only just recently started really trying to play since I was in elementary school lol. But yeah. I love this...check out my channel if you get the chance[:

  • Oh my, I came here just to listen to what your Lyon & Healy harp sounded like (I'm on the outlook for a new harp, see), and what do I get? My absolute new favorite song, that's what. I'm going to disregard all the previous comments with proposals, because really, you're marrying me. There's nothing more to it. You're somehow going make up for all the tears I've got streaming down my face right now.

    Thanks for posting this. I'm in awe.

  • ha fools i go to school with this person and we are like best friends.

  • BFFs 4evar

    <333

  • omg this is amazing! I think I jsut fell in love!

  • this is such a fun song to sing

    and you sound pretty much exactly like ben gibbard!

    great job :D

  • stunning!

  • I'm a guy and I'm pretty damn sure I'm gay now because of this playing.

    Fuck you for making such beautiful music.

    WE NEED MORE.

  • Congratulations! You now enjoy getting sexed in the butt.

    But really, thanks. I would do more, but I think I'm kinda stumped on what to do next.. So, suggestions would be pretty cool if you have any.

  • I actually do have a suggestion. If you could play A Blank Page Empire or I Am by Further Seems Forever, that'd be spiffy.

    If you want to talk to me on AIM, my screen name is FlyOnIcarus

  • you've mezmerized so many people with this, I still melt at 2:10

    by any chance, do you have the sheet music transcribed for this?

  • Haha, thanks. 2:10 was such a BS part of the song, I had no idea what I was doing (which might be obvious from the way I ended it). I'm glad you liked it, though.

    Unfortunately, I don't have sheet music for this.. A lot of people have asked, though, so one of these days I might sit down and try to write it all out. If I do, I'll let you know.

  • is that harp from you? i don't so.. because the harp is on your wrong shoulder and it's standing too far away from you..

    i like your playing ;)

  • Look in the description box: "*The reason it looks like it's on the wrong shoulder is because I was filming this through a giant wall-mirror."

    Anyway, thanks.

  • the harp does look a little too small for you though

    D:

  • Well, it IS a smaller harp. That and the harp bench was set kind of high (I hate sitting low to the ground :\ )

  • Excellent. Simply excellent. You should really put up some more harp videos. You've got a great voice and if you can play harp you definitely have a lot of talent.

  • <3

    EXTRA ! J'aime.

  • this should be featured without question

  • uhm

    HELLO

    WILL YOU MARRY ME?

    :]

    nice L&H!!!!!!

  • too late! He's so mine! :) JK. but sweet playing!

  • Marry you? Alright sure, I'll be there in a sec, just give me like 15 minutes. :P

    haha yes, semi-grand. omggg i'm getting my grand petite in um like 5 days!!!!!!!!!!!!

    T.T

    you should try playing some playradioplay! on harp :D that would be pretty kick butt.

  • I heard this and i just had to get the song immediately, and you know what? i like your cover better than the original, i really really admire you, you're sosogood!

  • That was an EXCELLENT rendition of the Dntel song. In fact, it's one of the best cover versions I have ever heard. I'm not exaggerating.

    You are a very talented young man. :)

  • Hah, thanks! I was kind of apprehensive about posting this vid at first, but now I'm thankful I did. Glad you liked it.

  • My jaw drops, amazing.

  • woooow very great

    xp

    I hate you

    you are so good playing instruments

    what song are you playing?

  • Don't worry, there's probably like a Sosogood Haters Club out there that you could join or something. I bet they have really cool jackets. :\

    But yeah, thanks! The song I'm playing? It's "This is the Dream of Evan and Chan" by Dntel.

  • This is good

  • sosogood?

  • I loved this

    Very good voice

    And you play the harp really well

    You're gorgeous too.. :)
