[12345dantemania]

really cool

[12345dantemania]

really cool

[matheuscmanoel]

Nice cover, loved her voice and the violin guy is awesome. But the answer to @LongWalksInDecember was not cool.

[haezoos]

i enjoy the girls voice, the rest could easily be re-created in any studio. She holds the artistic value of the song.

[TheScottski]

relax and enjoy!



[beJOYfulyo]

Anyone know the chords for the mandolin part? Thanks.

[pixiesinthehouse]

makes...me....fall....ZZZZZZZZ­ZZZZZZZZZZZZ

[grabbingpeelz]

why wear the animals heads? you're all a bunch of good looking people. flaunt it!

[MrXemiu]

I like this better than the original, good job!

[OoNBSoO]

great cover ...stupid hipster animal heads

[jackbmx21]

whats with the gay outfits, your not cool.

[andrewdouvros1]

Dude was going ham at the end!

[seanchenn]

@longwalksindecember don't worry bro I agree with you c

[TheLeslichu]

I actually really like this one. It reminds me a lot of Dawn Landes work on her Peter, Bjorn, and John cover. Good work

[Destrollify]

Your pretentiousness took out the magic of this song. Good job.

[JustAnotherJake7]

I have yet to find a good cover of "Sleepyhead" including this one. Your voice is good, but the instrumental is well, shit.

[702eburton]

I am a big fan of the Band and now a fan of you all as well. Long walks has recently been promoted to "cover cop" and has troll-like quailties.

[Chris13wat]

it annoys me how weird you are

[TripsyDisco]

OMG....DAT VIOLIN <3

[zoetherebel]

@TripsyDisco HNNNNNNGGGG I KNOW. It's why I love this cover so much.

[89strangelove]

you guys try too hard to be cool

[thamos34r]

her smile at 1:44 made me melt like a damn candle.

[raymondj920]

Christ you guys are great.

[NinthEuphoric]

Ah, I love those masks...

[TheM3rks]

This just made my day :D

[TheSamdem]

If runtotorun were a pancake it would be a good pancake

[Riftadeath]

Whoaw.. I love!

[TheVarpuli]

i like the cover, but this video i dont like...

[firefaerie25]

AHHH! How the heck did I forget about this band? <3

[Foals4Life]

Great cover! What Xylophone is that?

[AliceMacification]

Hipsters, much?

[youthXattack]

@AliceMacification douhebag, much?

[BoopMarilyn]

Extremely talented(:

[alysestewart]

soooooooooo beautiful



[DinoDNA12]

Fuckin Right!

[TheSmexyViet]

Great cover, but you guys kinda over did it with the costumes. 

[brondaa]

This is amazing 0____0

[slugabedmiz]

Her voice is sooo damn powerful, glad i refound this <3

[ivanatorx2]

Her voice Is beautiful!

[PogoZdarlight]

Awsome cover!!

cheers :D!

[Nyx1230]

Keep up the good work! It was a very creative video :)

[Mikeyteetv]

me and my friends are not this cool :(

[geps59]

Great song, excellent execution

[geps59]

Gear song, excellent execution

[LongWalksInDecember]

@NeonTheSalmon

Cool, I don't. 

[celenteri]

con un bosque de fondo habria sido perfecto el video

[LeonardoPolichuth]

fucking awesome

[ZombiePoetryClub]

No shoes!

[LongWalksInDecember]

i really love this song and this cover, but i feel like her voice just sounds so pretentious and out of character for the song it ruins it.

[runtotorunmusic]

@LongWalksInDecember says the youtuber who's named themself LongwalksinDecember.

[LongWalksInDecember]

@runtotorunmusic

yes, i admit that when i made the account name i wanted to name my band that because i was TWELVE, but you have to learn to take criticism. you have to understand that not everyone will enjoy your music or your singer. you guys are a talented group; i just don't think her voice did the cover justice.

y'all need to know that once you put yourself out there, not everyone is going to be all "omg! you guys are SO GREAT" and love you. some people might - get this - not like you.

[runtotorunmusic]

@LongWalksInDecember gotta take it if you're gonna dish it out ;) Big love

[LongWalksInDecember]

@runtotorunmusic

haha, yeah, but i'm admitting i was a pretentious little preteen who was in that "trying to be emo" or whatever phase. do what makes you happy, but not everyone is gonna love it. best of luck, though

(ps. uh, big love? sounds like a reversed bon iver song ;P)

[zoetherebel]

@runtotorunmusic

lol I love you guys for this reason. Gonna deal it? Gotta take it! C'est La Vie.

[WeAreMUForever]

@LongWalksInDecember you need to chill the fuck out brah

[myKNIFEyourLIFE]

@runtotorunmusic u tell him yeh :P

[DrMonmob]

@runtotorunmusic

Ignore haters without sould, This is an amazing song, video.

Worth a subscribe (:

[NeonTheSalmon]

@LongWalksInDecember I like her voice, it suites the song very nicely

[MAXKORN1]

@LongWalksInDecember I don't think you can base if someone is pretentious off their voice, especially if they're singing someone else's lyrics.

[LongWalksInDecember]

@MAXKORN1 yes you can? pretentious is defined by trying to impress someone by doing over the top shit. i feel like her voice is out of character and doesn't sound natural. lots of people might like it, i don't. the band already went out of their way to try to "riddle me this" out of my opinion or whatever, but, it doesn't really change what i think, broseph.

[ABigToeforYou]

@LongWalksInDecember There wasn't anything particularly over-the-top about the way she sung it. Her voice was on key and she kept to just about the exact same tune that Angelakos sings. You can criticize someone on the nature of their voice, but that doesn't mean it's right to or that it makes any sense. Also realize that the band is made of actual, living people. After essentially dehumanizing the singer, I think they had good reason to retort, although it may not have been in the best taste.

[TripsyDisco]

@LongWalksInDecember personally i loved her voice but i can see where you're coming from.

[KeyOfAm]

@LongWalksInDecember

I agree

[upty5]

man im seeing bears playing guitar i need to get off the drugs

[Lazyworkr]

Killer rendition.

[Conker10382]

You guys really are talented...just don't try so hard. A song like this should keep close to it's original...that's what makes it great, after all. I hope you go far. As a band, like I said, you are all very talented. Good luck.

[LAKbffs]

I love this ((:

[CompanionlikesDMGs]

what the fuck portland?

[ceeejay1979]

[MrBratwurst97]

[OhhYvette]

I love the violin :D

[somcko0l]

i personally thought this video was really cute. great cover, too. (:

[AlbusDumblederp]

What the f#ck am I looking at?

[coinvolti]

[AcerAz115]

[johnnyjigball]

Great cover! lose the outfits, its embarrassing and mildly creepy

[ahemitsmex5]

[nelsonbig]

[Joshwood311]

[goldenfire204]

[trenton8521]

wow this is awesome. but in a diferent way to the original. it give me a different feeling.

[nuggz503]

love this cover the chick sounds angelic but the fucking OX head creeps the fuck out of me.

[BerniePwnsNoobs]

More Acoustic, less Ox head.

[SoparTheMage]

one word...boner..that was awesome

[MrRad08]

More acoustic recordings please. I love this cover so much more than the original. You have a beautiful voice. I dig the outfits. I was curious if there was a way to download this. I checked Itunes, but didn't see it posted.

.

[PrussiaSnailsham]

Very good voice!

[mimitsu333]

yea your right because all YOU GUYS'S music videos are much better. wait.......

[ROFLWAFFLICIOUS]

YOU SHALL NEVER BE VAMPIRE WEEKEND.

[TheGigapops]

Is it just a video with their cover or are they actually playing in the video?

[kellbellsbeauty]

[Edogmetalruler156]

Hipsters.



[xMeliMoonshinex]

[miazz2475]

[luniza]

[Lifeintakes]

I love your voice angle with the black wings; I'd love to know you.

[OoberIsAWord]

This is def the best cover of this song I have heard. You guys should do more passion pit.

[Plegodego]

Animal heads so awesome!



[isalovesjohnlennon]

you guys are great! :D

[WoHanNi]

[LILJESUSBOI]

MUTANT FEET GREEN MAN !!!!!!!!!!!!! MUTANT FEET!!!!!!!!!!!!

FREEEEEEEEEEEEAK!!!!

GO TO HELL MUTANT FEET GREEN MAN!!!

AND YOU HAVE DEVIL HEAD!!!

[wildboyz93]

This is good but that girl is trying too hard to be indy. The violin makes this AWESOME.

[ComplexImageBIZ]

@wildboyz93 Jealousy. your trying too hard to be cool

[NakedCreep]

@wildboyz93 I don't see it

[HeyitsHaaay]

Screw all these trolls. You guys are amazing! :]

[TheDramz3]

[DieselZero]

buen cover ;), pensé que escucharia otro mal cover, pero este tiene estilo

[dayuhanspace]

cutey

[BrutesBlogs]

Am I high?

[KevinKayotic]

@regnifalleb Lul listen to society and urban outfitters lululul next time try not to be a smart ass...

[Njmsmile]

i agree. your not good at being 'instrumental' or 'indie' if you want to be taken seriously, take off the animal masks, stop trying to look like a fairy, dont dub your voice and learn to play the glockenspiel....pricks

[jordyburke]

you guys are great

[LILJESUSBOI]

GREEN MAN HAS MUTANT FEET!!!

[fantasticfish96]

what, musicians cant be interesting or unique until their famous? never heard anyone call MGMT or lady gaga pretentious.

[zillaboop]

guy in greens arms do it for me. hubba hubba.

[soccerwod]

i liked it, but it could've done without the animal masks

[melissagrace23]

GOBBLE GOBBLE is all i can think. Covers good wish there was a little more precusion to fill out the verse and keep it flowing.

[Meltedsnake4]

It's so indie! Haha what a voice! Great mandolin playing too!

[WHATEPIEP]

Awsome ;D

[macfanboi1]

this was amazing.. you have a beautiful voice.

[opieprzona]

yeach, this video just sucks, I agree. But who cares? They' re making a nice piece of good music...

[NeonTheSalmon]

I love the cover but the video is so pretentious it's embarassing

[colesy]

@NeonTheSalmon In what way is this video pretentious? If this video is pretentious then every other music video ever made is pretentious too. Great cover and a nice video to go with it.

[BJZoods]

LATFH.

[physcobeepx3]

MANDOLINNNNNN

[ming57]

Why can none of you spell?

[thefiercemissd]

actually...they're really good technically. the video is weird, but I like them otherwise.

[lovebug20136]

paigy ur a retard she sings the right lyrics and no one carse u like owls lest see if u can sing it oh wait u probly sing worse than that geek who sung shoulove said no!!!!

[thelegomaster10]

dang that gurl can sing but she must learn to sing without reading words

[PaigeyLikesOwls]

UH MA GUD.

SHES READIN THE LYRICS.

UH MA GUD.

WUT?

[omglmaololjk]

i masterbate to this

[Matashi911]

Lol I like them its cool how they made it into their own... Epic Violin was not expecting Vocals were good and the "get up" was great, it seems they had fun doing this... so Kudos to you!

[Oh4werd]

this song is dooooope as hell. check out my dubstep rap remix to Passion Pit's Sleepyhead!! all feedback appreciated. def gettin some positive feedback and jus posted it a week ago...

[iJake1996]

Wow you sounded kick ass you'd be famous if you werent trying to stand out so much be you not an ox, bear or fairy thing. still great but people will be freaked to take you...cool name too

[MegaTyop]

The ox kicked ass

[SNoss7]

Pretentious- making claim to or creating an appearance of (often undeserved) importance or distinction....

Costumes- making claim to or creating an appearance of (often undeserved) importance or distinction....?

[Oh4werd]

check out my dubstep rap remix to Passion Pit's Sleepyhead, all feedback appreciated. i recently got put on to their music and its doooope

[missnollie]

well, I think you guys fuckin' rock.

[ibullman]

i liked the ox..

[trestl]

Great cover!

Side Note: It's not pretentious to make a strange video. It is pretentious to criticize a band for "trying too hard" or doing something you might not like.

[facelessfan777]

@trestl Agreed.

[bowman9523]

@trestl STFU shit dick neon iz right

[juniwilliams]

@trestl no mate, the video is the definition of pretentious. Some songs desire simplicity to draw attention to the real talent possessed. The cover itself is great though

[murr990]

Perhaps they like wearing masks. Everyone for their own.

[TheMothBalls]

why is everyone giving you guys crap? i loved it.

[xXGhilliedxSamuraiXx]

^ Like KevinKayotic said, you really are trying too hard to be Indie. The music should be enough to make you indie. The weird costumes are just way too much.

The cover is just okay, but I found the violin to be really amazing.

[scotty900000]

yall got skillz!!

[kolona45]

well i liked it :)

[glassjaw442]

This is a an amazing cover.

[Luk1C]

I agree with pretty much everyone else... the cover is pretty lovely and your voice is amazing but... what the hecks up with the image and video? not needed... too far.

[Hew91]

I quite love this cover.....but you are all so hipster it hurts

But music wise, my mind = blown

[Kennedyinc3]

Cut out all the deliberate hipster vibes

You guys are talented enough to just rely on your music

[jdreese92]

The music is great! but its tough to watch :x

[Pearse192]

amazing they rock ^_^ that whole band was amazing no fancy recording studio just them and they were brilliant

[Velourium]

are you guys trying for a hyundai commercial?

[Taviiztheename]

@Velourium LMAOOOO!!!!!!!

[keffo09]

this video is fucking screaming hipster

[Caliskaterboy213]

I live her voice :D

[FishsticksFilms]

@Caliskaterboy213 its good on video. im sure that she edited a shit load.

[weezerjr955]

all is i see is that hot ass baby Jasmine Guitar he or she has to the left (:::

[thebassman6880]

my hipster meter just exploded.....tnx for that

[themackiavelli]

this is deliciously fun and i'm guessing that was the intention. not sure why a few of the commenters are over-analyzing
