  • dude this is the best cover i've heard of the song period. they get all the chords perfectly. she has some really weird dis anent chords and they get all of them. and singing her style is so hard to do. i don't really like girls like boys but i give them props. i like this almost as much as i like imogen heaps version.

  • Wow BOYS LIKE GIRLS WAS IN OTTAWA, EVEN BETTER MAVERICKS?! That is amazing, I saw M.Trench at Mavericks. It's kinda pissing me off that Boys Like Girls only have one Canadian date, like do they not know they have tons of Canadian fans, and that we all can't get to Toronto to see them!!

  • did that fool say im gonna go get some air fuck this lol?

  • haha that makes sense... i always thought he said 'frou frou's a bear... fuck this' lmao now i have no idea why i thought that : P

  • wtf is wrong with u? y the fuck would u think that

  • awsome video an brill song cover xx

  • so let go, let go, jumping ♥

  • a static lullaby does it better.. ):

  • in Ottawa?

  • yep

  • yahhh...ummm 11pistolpete11.....idk who ur talkin to but u need to shut the fuck up cuz u know wtf im talkin bout...mmmmkay?

  • i didnt think his voice sounded that bad. the epitomy of the "pretty boy who has his voice edited in the sudio but sucks live" is Pete Yorn, minus the pretty boy.

  • sounds a bit like elmo

  • yeah...um no haha wt are you talkin about you fag

  • they totally didnt kill it! the vicously murdered it

  • haha people are so angry here. I personally love this cover and I think it did the original justice. For all those out there drinking haterade, you can't judge a live version against Frou Frou's recorded, well you can but that's not fair. And just because Boys Like Girls appeals to teenage girls doesn't make their music any less impressive

  • boys like girls sell their image not their music. they're a bunch of pretty boys who have their voices heavily edited on their studio songs and can't sing live for their live's sake

  • well aside from the lead singer I wouldn't be able to pick any of them out from a crowd, and don't buy into the "image" thing, I like them for the music they write and perform. Have you seen them live? Just out of curiousity, because I saw them last night and thought they were very good! Maybe they just had an off day when you saw them

  • thats true.

    martin uses autotune.

  • if thats true, that makes me angry. Where did you hear that?

  • ive heard it through a bunch of different people who are pretty connected to the music scene (promoters, radio show hosts) and there are videos of him singing where he didnt use autotune, and he can't sing to save his life.

    now, dont get me wrong, i adore this song and i love the cover they did of it, but when i heard martin uses autotune and found out that it was true, i lost all respect for them.

  • damnit. i feel cheated!

  • shut the fuck up about "oh no they killed it" they liked the song so they wanted to do their own version and if you dont like it then just listen to the frou frou version and theres nothin wrong with that just dont post comments like that just trashing the song

  • i like the version by boys like girls! :/

  • LEAVE THIS SONG TO IMOGEN HEAP.

    Every cover I've ever heard screws it up horribly.

    She originally sang it as part of Frou Frou, its her song, no one can give out goose bumps and spine shivers like she can.

  • But,they can still try.

  • trying and succeeding are two completely separate things

  • wow a lot of negativity going on here.

  • i like boys like girls but this cover of this song sucks!

  • it sucks live

  • SUCK

  • Yeah, sorry to say, but this version is just horrible...there is no emotion and his voice just comes off as whiny. But my sister likes version if that means anything, but I guess that's too be expected since she's 15, and BLG is a music staple for most girls that age ...

  • fuck you boys like girls

    stop fucking screaming you dumbass fans

    you killed a great song D:<

  • oh no. nonononono!!!! they killed it :(

  • totally killed it D:

  • Wow, I had no idea such a clueless crappy band could know about true musical talent (such as Imogen Heap). They raped it too. Disgusting.

  • haha :D

    no. Boys Like Girls did a great job.

    Martin is AMAZING!

    His vocals are different from frou frou & Imogen Heap but theyr still gr8

    Different doesnt mean its bad...

  • Of course different dosen't mean better, or worse. I like Kinna Granis' version almost as much as the original. The only time this dudes voice sounds good is when it's been warped and twisted behind a studio sound board. Every single live performance, which is where true creativity and talent shine, i've seen of them has been awful (such as this one). I mean, just so you know.

  • sometimes martin can sound a little bad, he doesnt sound the greatest know, but he is a REALLY good singer if you catch him on a good day

  • lol :D

    yeah. his voice can sound strained live sometimes...he should drink more water & less liquor pahaha :D

  • for their summer tour i got tickets to chicago, the first date. so his voice should be fresh and clean=]

    last time i saw them live hes voice was a little strained

  • omg! this is a bunch of crap...stop killing the song!!! for example 0:55..that voice was horrible..and the singer stretches his voice into different ranges and sounds as opposed to Imogen Heap whose voice is just simple but amazing... i never really likes this band anyway...

  • wow. this video makes me sad. what a bunch of crap.

  • i just wannna point out that frou frou's version has alot of electronics added to the sound to make it sound nice whereas the boys like girls version is acoustic, and pretty damn good. don't get me wrong; i absolutely ADORE frou frou's version. but i don't think people should compare the two versions when one is with electronics and the other is acoustic. OBVIOUSLY they will sound different.

  • Nice try, pussyfucks, but you sound like shit compared to Imogen Heap.

  • daaamn. stop screaming and talking and singing, that's just so anoying o___O

  • laughing out loudz

  • the first time i heard this song by them was at their concert. :) ...it took me a while to figure out WHAT WAS THAT NEW SONG THEY PLAYED?! i looked forevers until i found it. :]]

    he told everyone what it was before they played it, but...

    me and my friend were talking.

    IM SOWWY MARTIN!

    :'(

    :P

  • I loooove this cover.

  • MARTIN JOHNSON IS MY REAL IDOL XD!!!

    His voice is a real orgasm for our ears loll

  • i love his VOICE!

  • wow i didn't notice until now but a few seconds in you can hear some guy saying 'fuck this frou frou is a bear' wtf? and also i can hear my friend right before that saying 'ohmygod frou frou!'

  • It sounds like two cars full of cats got into a head-on collision.

  • Ambitious...but it didn't really work out.

  • meh maybe studio version is better dont like the sound he cant try to sound like her id rather he put his own style to it..

  • lol goddamn stop argueing u cant say a band sucks its all about preference and the rude comments r completely unnecessary cause there not gonna stop making music just cause a few dip shits dont like them..so quite being assholes and dont watch videos of bands u dont like just so u can start an arguement its annoying so please dont watch boys like girls videos if u dont like it cause clearly nobody cares what u have to say about there favourite band or w.e so get a life and get out

  • frou frou??????????

  • you are wrong actually boys like girls is a terrible band and this the best song they have ever done because their lyrics blow. Frou frou is a bear.

  • a bear??

  • Okay, I like Boys Like Girls for the most part, but the original is so much better.

    You just can't redo a Frou Frou song and expect it to sound good.

  • Frou Frou fucked up her own song...Boys Like Girls just made it better...lol.

  • hell yeah.

  • you can't say that when imogen Heap has suzh an amazing voice even when she sings this in acoustic. Look her up, bottom line is that boys like girls also liked this song enough to do a cover of it.....

  • just to let you know... frou frou originally sang this song, not imogen heap but yeah, imogen heap is really good too <3

  • or are they the same person.... omg i just realized that lol. i feel stupid now... sorry lol

  • ohhh...it's so amazing <3

  • This is cool!!!!!<3

  • ahhh i loveee boys like girls.

    they are amazing.

    =) <3

  • They rock <3 :)

  • wow.. i freaking love blg.
