this is the equivalent of a listening to guy singing about his period. are you kidding me? there is a reason this was sung by a guy, because he never stood a fucking chance.
They're both very different from each other, and honestly I love both.
To me, Arcade Fire's version sounds more like a broken cry for help. Hence the reason it's so raw. It's one of the good things about the song in my opinion.
This cover is more of an inner, quiet, pain. It's much more composed, and gives off a romantic sort of sadness. It's also quite nice.
Basically, I find it silly to compare them as they are both sung in very different ways.
Four minutes and sixteen seconds. I covered this song. And I shot a video. Watch the video and tell me what you think. Thank you for acknowledging a lot of work.
@yourenotwrong First of all, I'm not a sir. I'm a 14 year old girl. And second of all, if you think that the original has passion or soul, that's because the singer seems to be dying while singing, because it makes me feel like I've been punched. And third of all, if I'm a "cretin" just because we have different opinions, you and everybody in the world are cretins. The world is made of different opinions, buddy. Don't judge me. ;)
@capetorial. That is so funny. I can barely control what I am typing here 'cause i'm shaking so hard from all the laughter. You should be a comedian man. With jokes like that you could make it big time. Or no wait, big time, then you would have to exercise. O_o.
Yeah I agree with snakestorm, it sounds really really good, but it doesn't hit me in the gut like the original. This song was written out of saddness and your pace and sound makes it almost sound kind of too happy.
This version sounds kind of like the singer has turned numb to me, whereas the other version sounds frustrated. I do prefer the other version although this is pretty to the ears it's not very satisfying.
This is going to sound bizarre I know, I think it's a beautiful song and a good cover but it lacks soul. In a similar way to Hallelujah by Alex Burke, the song is sung TOO well. The brokeness and brittleness of the voice is what gives it's soul and depth. Win Butler's voice struggles and strains with the notes and not only does that make it unique but gives it heart. Still a respectable cover. Peace.
@snakestorm123 So true. Win Butler may not be the best singer, but the feeling he puts into the songs is just incredible. Like here, or like in Antichrist Television Blues.
@snakestorm123 I agree totally.. couldn't have said it better myself. I never comment on Youtube videos but you hit the nail on the head for me on this one
wait.... i got here from the song any fun..... HOWW??? but i do like the song...
