Talking Heads - Once in a Lifetime (Cover)

[MMM69969]

Many thanks! This a great cover. Plenty of credit to the original song musically and added some personal touches for lyrical connection for the visuals. --AND--- for a "home-made" is really good.

[bulletz4life]

yay no cheesy computerized water background

[patrimolly]

great cover congrats

[TheEmmycharlie]

Hey!! I love these videos - almost like watching home movies at your parents' house... creative back then and even more so now!!!

[couchpotatotheatre]

very good.

[robhartjr123]

Didnt know John Goodman was such a singer.

[Yamaguchi2Chris]

@robhartjr123 That's Tom Sizemore

"Look where my hand was."

[JasonBonitati]

Sorry, my wife's not fucking PLASTIC!

[navcrowds]

I salute you. By accident or design you have totaly got the whole "YouTube Cover" thing right. Not only covering the song (which is very well done btw) but also covering the Video !

Kudos x 10

[Davidbzm01]

good job dude 

[Ma965]

Great!

[hutter2006]

did really good on this song!

[freegance]

I like so much this video ...it's very representative of this world ...with Talking Heads song, the must !!!! ....Great work JericGarner !!!!

[SheWhoPlays]

Well done. Had my own dream goin there

[LION234567]

Hey Maverick (Eric),

I'm a 'Heads fan, and this is OK! I've seen the original quite a few times and the later version in Stop Making Sense, and yes it's a re-interpretation, without the dancing (choreographed by Toni Basil), but it's pretty good really.

At first I found it just amusing, but much like any decent Talking Heads recording, it grows on you.

Well done!

[bluestar66677]

same as it ever was lol

[DungeonStudio]

BP's new recovery ad sung by Tony Hayward himself! LOL

Nice job, but my God - what have you done? :)

[falconrain76]

I love this song and it is a great cover really really well done, i am impressed. Now let's see have you done "witchdoctor" yet? or maybe one that perhaps hasn't been done to death like witchdoctor has, perhaps the cheers theme song "where everybody knows your name." by, I think the guys name was, Gary Portnoy.

Well anyways great work old chap. blessed be.

[onlycheez]

I love it!! REMOVING REMOVING REMOVING !!

[bootsybug1]

now this rocks.

[ALFREDOHERNANDEZDIAZ]

EXCELLENT JOB DUDE !

[pwntonious]

this is awesome! :D

[TheNotanurse]

This is my favorite song of all times, and I have to say, it's an alright cover. Only suggestion is to not sound so robotic. Awesome editing though.

[amberlynn218]

Funny! He should have tried to dance more though. All and all not bad.

[Chessjock]

Not sure...but this could be my least favorite version of this song.

[stevensont53]

Best cover that I have seen of this popular song, Do u do all the editing yourself?

[dana44s]

Pretty good video mate

[dougiewhite778]

that was great i could hear all the lyrics more clearly when you sang this

[okstereohead]

Holy shit, is that a David Duchovny doll at 1:12? They made Twin Peaks dolls? And somebody bought them?

[jericgarner]

Actually, that was an original 1964 G.I. Joe doll that I dress up in Barbie clothes.

Thanks for the comment and for watching.

-maverick

[194jerry]

Hilarious. VERY excellent.

[Monnya]

good work.

[CouveTJ]

hahahah nice

[parksy010101]

Poor.

[JMEsLittleBro]

this is awesome

[andymcroon]

Totally loved it! :)

[Ragnemalm]

Very good, both audio and video!

[Geotal45]

this dudes a beast

[Fyuryun]

good work!

[NeoOneOrg]

Egonomics, great job

[JohnnyLovelyOfficial]

But you know what? Howcome when I cover Devo's "Jocko Homo" WMG removes it and when I get it put back up they remove it again and I get a copyright strike on my account? Seriously, this is NOT fair!

[jericgarner]

R U lip synching to their actual music track?

If so, then that's why.

This music video is entirely and completely produced and performed by me, which is a BIG difference.

[JohnnyLovelyOfficial]

Nope. I covered the song and I sang it and everything. But they took it down.

[JohnnyLovelyOfficial]

LOL WTF IS THIS?

[1jawsus1]

you did a very nice job on this, and your facial expressions were a great addition, (you have a face one won't forget)

and the singer was good too, maybe that was you too

[JBA7726]

Man you are a freak ...GREAT WORK !

[Cr8zyCanuck]

Better than the original.

[NavinJohnson90]

Haha this is fucking brilliant! David Byrne would be proud!

It's funny that you used a blackberry for "how do I work this thing" cause that's exactly what i thought of when I heard that in the song.

[seandeeify]

You may very well be one of the funniest people I have ever seen!!!!!! Great work!

[Emyrsaurus]

what a hateful shit version

[Frosty2211]

dont listen to idiots...very nice job

[bostonabakedbeaner]

you are really ugly

[Jaquafresh]

Sexcellent cover,

But I too am wondering where the original is, YouTube appears to be bereft.

[tzone92]

The original was here about a year ago, but it got taken down since then.

[Snowbiker]

So briliant !!!!

[ilikegreeneggs2006]

look where my hand was

[Baywolf]

Well Done.

[vibeman45036]

I think that you did an awesome job creating this and it really made my day,(actually it's very late at night!). Just reminiscing some of the old songs I loved. Very good!

[bryanmarquardt]

it's amazing what can be doen with photoshop.

[xDannyScene]

thats awesome man I loved that made my day lol well night hehe

[vaslittlecrow]

Is this cover available as a commercial or promo MP3? I totally need a copy.

[darshan70]

Bravissimo !!!! veramente fatto bene complimenti !!!

[moonmanvic]

i really like this version of the song.

[texashawgss]

where's the real video?

[superspudgun]

Nicely done.

[sidnoi]

I really liked this. You put a lot of effort into the video production. Ignore all the nasty comments, some of them downright disgusting and filth.  Why call someone a sick paedo because he does something he likes and for fun and is not hurting anyone. Really..the person who posted this comment should be ashamed of yourself. And to think you kiss your mum with that mouth!! Vocals were on time although they were not in the same key. Still a good video though.

[asianwannabeamerican]

I don't know if this was bad or good but I liked it. HAHAHA

[dhblank]

Very nice update of the original. I enjoyed it just as much!

[klebold22]

u suck paedo

[JohnHenryReaves]

Gee ... now I understand that this song is really about a dead guy, who must have drowned or was buried at sea ... remembering his life, and thinking about his currant situation.

Huh, I watched the real video all of those times and never understood that...

[ALONE777777]

Creepy shit... lol

[lizclegg]

I like your version

[jmm53087]

Very funny dude! Well produced also.

[cootmaster]

the water begaing is great and 6 versions of you

[jeepster73]

very good. even the use of blue/green sceen was good. it's not easy to get it right. love it.

[pectwita]

That was damn good

[tatsuko1]

great stuff, good on you

[Brucelee41126]

I gotta admit man, that was a good job at singing this whole song and making this video, i give you a 5 for pure effort. nice work

[kent787]

Keyboards sound better than Talking Heads version. Byrne's vocal delivery has more passion. Video's a bit cheesy. Not bad. Enjoyed it! Byrne is better looking and has more stage presence.

[JacobRuefer]

Solid.

[namnoiz]

It looks and sounds like you put alot of hours in making your video. Excellent job done !!!!!

[tynieboyz]

YOUR A FECKIN' WEIRDO.

[hutter2006]

not a bad version of this great song!

[penrril13]

sucks

[jazzbojudas]

pretty cool

[onemangang2008]

LOL!!! GREAT REMAKE!!!

[kevstario]

U are a joke, a really bad and not in the slightest bit funny joke.... please fall off a cliff, a large one, and hit some rocks on the way down

[laughingandlying]

oh my god there are so many negative cunts on youtube. if you cant say anything nice shut the fuck up. why are you even watching this. you waste of fucking space

[kevstario]

well the world is made of posittves and negatives....but i'm sure u know this or are u that thick hahaha, also there is a reason for a comments page ..... so people can comment hahaha cocksmoker

[64mung]

PRETTY DAMN GOOD!!!

I love it!

5 stars

64m >:-)

[fastmclaren71]

Better Video than the origonal, because of the evolution of technology. And a clever Witty Bloke. Nice one Mate.

[keacat07]

Does anyone know where I can find the original music video by Talking Heads on youtube?

[UndergroundWorlds]

well done

[whatever1234145]

HAH! This is awesome, there's no other way to describe it.

[shengins9]

[iman5497]

[pardonme12]

[bordelon1111]

OMG....This is so awesome. Please sir, it will be an honor for you to sleep with my wife. If you dont desire that option, ill be more than happy to give you a blowjob, to show my appreciation for this video that you created.

[tauro2]

[dominoize]

Looks like you were doing sit-ups and breathing hard at the start of the video, lol.

[MoOnBaBy05]

Lolz I like it!

[FelizJesusbirth]

This is infinitely better than the version by "The Exies".

[dasoxfan88]

[PforParis]

Very funny! :)

[lyndonbaldwin]

Sounds good man!!

[NiCroq]

[DrLocust]

Nice job! I'm glad Warner Music Group hasn't bugged you yet. This video needs to stay up. Great stuff.

[jericgarner]

thanks for the comment.

Yeah, I do not think they will make me take it down since its my cover of the real song, but not the actual real song, right?

Besides, David Byrne told me he liked it.

[taiwan1895]

Good job. This was fun to watch!

[mrkranen]

I stumbled upon this looking for the original, which keeps getting deleted. Great job buddy.  Very entertaining, and well done.

[JoeJuve2k7]

[ohyo]

Of all the Talking Heads covers on Youtube this one wins the award. You are officially the world's coolest Dad!

[chardinej]

Brilliant, funny, well done.
