Final Fantasy's over. Final Fantasy XIII came out. The final one. I guess there's nothing else to commit to.

[RaitoKun33]

Amazing

[BamPete]

this is amazing. truly amazing <3

[ericgirlrh]

This cover is perfection. End of story.

[Eddemer]

this is really good :)

i'm guessing you're using some sort of complex dealy to keep the parts going...unless you have a band hidden somewhere

[GuitarHero]

loop pedal, my dear.

[Eddemer]

aren't those expensive?

[GuitarHero]

pretty sure. i'm not a super-music tech, but they probably cost a kidney or two.

[strangemartin]

basic one is about £100, but the more flexibility, the more you pay. For a pro musician it's not a huge expense, it's no more than a lot of other equipment that's considered vital.

[StickyRix]

Damn good Mate!

[robbiehibs]

Can u buy this anywhere? I cant find it.

[RenzokukenODC]

You named your band Final Fantasy? ...Seriously? ....

[armadillo01]

Lots of bands named after video games: Crystal Castles is another. What's hr big deal?

[nowthatsasnappytune]

my favorite song!!

[iwanttotubereallybad]

THIS WAS ON MY BIRTHDAY!!

[f0lke]

[Difusion88]

[Jada918]

[worlddropsdead]

I've been watching this over and over since I stumbled across it the other day.

Owen Pallett, you are heavenly.

[chrissnh]

[cheapxchampagne]

Absolutely beautiful.

[dylanisdeath]

class song-class singer-class instrumental  CLASSSSSSSS

p.s. hey calum

[calumisdead]

Hello!

[NotWorthReading]

helllll yessssss

[calumisdead]

That is so very cool. It must be ridiciously hard to play!

[NoStarsMusic]

It's actually really easy on guitar, so I can't imagine it would be too hard on violin :L

[Wonderboy8090]

this guy has a great voice and completely pulled of the song. simply top notch work.

[indisaac1]

wtf!?!?! it´s just him with a delay pedal?? woow!

[DJrouRmo]

I'd like to point out that this is not a bloc party cover. Bloc party covers Final Fantasy.

[DJrouRmo]

No. I'm wrong. I'm an idiot.

[jibz88]

What the hell are you talking about? It's a BLOC PARTY cover. Written and composed by BLOC PARTY.

[GILPI17]

easy tiger....he did correct himself! O_O people on youtube these days! :'(

[ZombiesRPeoplesToo]

coooool

[dizzinicol]

[kitschli]

He's MAGIC!!!!! I saw him summer 2006 and I was completely charmed all the way through his performance!!!!

[LukeLABYRINTH]

That is awesome man

one of my favourite bloc party songs of all time and you did it justice

love it

x

[scapeus]

kinda wierd idea,but it's interesting 2 hear.

[NuRaveMaarten]

you are brilliant

[tomasdelonge182]

how on earth did he use those loops?? does he step on one pedal ??

[accidentemergency]

who cares if he is gay :| geez

Hes amazing at what he does

[TheOreoMan]

I find it funny that smoosh and final fantasy toured with Bloc Party and both do this cover.

Very good cover, love the mad looping skillz.

[Kagomemiko247]

this is such a great cover I want it for myself so badly...

[kriswashere]

final fantasy does such cute covers. they always do a great job at making songs their own.

[lazysundae]

yes, he is queer. they made that clear in the ny times 2 years ago. so what???

[lacstar]

It's funny. :]

[lacstar]

This man is very talented.

I love his version of Bloc Party, it's very nice to see a different cover and his own style put into it.

Oh btw, I just read on Wikipedia,

He is queer.

Oh well, still great music.

[harrymaynard]

say hello to the most talented man on earth

[tccham182]

Love it, so nice to hear a cover which is a bit different to the original.

[itsjonduhh]

the painful screaming kinda ruined it for me...

[skypekai]

he should learn the lyrics

[Jayzanski]

abominable - it's called a pedal.

you record, touch the pedal and keep adding on. several pedals for several sounds/riffs, for layering purposes on stage.

[abominable37]

What I dont understand (and don't yell at me for being a noob) but how does he not play but there's like playing in the background? Mainly while he sings...

[crosswalkernie]

It's a totally legit question. He uses loops, so that things he plays previously can be played while he plays something else. It's a bit of a cheat, but considering he's virtually doing it himself - the drummer it's pretty amazing.

[jammedyourradar881]

Lol how is it a cheat? It's so hard to do live looping it takes an extreme amount of concentration. This guy does it on a violin. How sick can you be? Wow. Owen Pallett is the MAN!

[Corporea]

King

[Ssultann]

Wow! That was cool! Very original...

[fionnjapan]

that is fantastic

[DaBrainiac]

Awesome!

[dazz1020]

mental

[SpencaB]

I saw this guy open for Bloc Party, he was really good, but he didn't play this song. :-(

[danne54]

wtf this is fucking awesome do u have myspace?

[miau123211]

cute!!

[ok4mymemory]

genius

[casablancko]

wow wow wow!!! once that violin comes in, im in love. that was awesomeee! at the beginning though, i didnt see what was the big deal..but that violin!! and when he yells!

[manikd52]

in case you're aware... the whole thing is made with the freakin violin

[MondeTriste]

Manikd52. Kill it with the limp-dick sarcasm. Thank you.

[venusNmars]

very good

[accidentemergency]

wow...

[dragonflysappear]

I like this cover way more than the real song.

[FranzFerdinand55]

how the hell does he loop it?

[manikd52]

it's called... a loop pedal... technology YAY!

[FranzFerdinand55]

well. no shit. BUT HOW? he doesnt press anything. where does the sound go into? wheres it coming from? yeah, thanks.

[manikd52]

it's called a foot... you use it to press the pedal

[FranzFerdinand55]

it called ur face. answer the other questions u dick.

[manikd52]

wow...

[FranzFerdinand55]

ur pretty cool.

[livliv]

it basically records what he plays and goes into a big box and then he just loops it (plays it over and over again) and using the pedals he can either play the parts or stop them.

[FranzFerdinand55]

sir or ma'am, i love u. thank you for a clear and thoughtful and mature explanation. not like a douche bag. thanks.

[manikd52]

google it or something... its not my job to eliminate ignorance

[FranzFerdinand55]

why dont u and explain in to me u arrogant bastard. a question is not ignorance u fucktard. not knowing the answer is. queer fuck.

[NoStarsMusic]

Try to type like an semi-intelligent person, please.

Other than that, I like this cover :D

Apart from maybe the "Jump left" bit :L

[FranzFerdinand55]

i always do. and not only semi, but completely intelligent.

and wtf was that a comment to?

make no sense dipshit.

[FancyUnicorn]

but what's it called?

[NakedSalad]

Owen!! I love you!

I met him! And got his autograph.. and I have a photo taken with him. I look so bad in it but still! XD

He is really nice! He talked to me for ages and said I was pretty. It was the best day ever, as you'd imagine.

[midoria]

that's a really great cover

[pod4811]

Very Impressed. Best cover i've seen of any Bloc Party song ever. Keep up the good work :)

[jaboll]

no words. i love this men

[AngryAlpaka]

pretty cool!

[meowmixx]

gives me goosebumps!!!

[VJUCLANY44]

Same, Paddy. OWEN is the shit for two reason...one he played bloc party and two cause of violin/viola and magical pedals.lol

[sugicy]

Agreed! :D Owen's ability to loop his violin - i'm in awe.

[Paddydude]

THIS

IS

SO

COOL.

[sugicy]

Yes! Final Fantasy is amazing! Cheers!
