Dream Theater - The Count Of Tuscany (Indie/Folk Version)

[MrMrEFE]

the singer sounds like Portnoy XD

[REvenwood]

I understand whole point, it shouldn't be taken serious, OK. Now my opinion: The music is very good, trumpet is sometime out of tune a little, by me myself play, and i now it's hard to keep wright tone. Violin, and guitar are very good, but vocals are crapy, find someone else to sing because this song is well played , and it should be sang better :)

[UnforgivingCritic]

i thought they gonna sing that "dumm dumm" song.. can't remember the title. xD

[adrianoddr2]

The lyrics was made for THIS version, for sure!

[CNorrisBiggestFan]

I like this version of the song. The other one? Too mainstream.

[TheHollowGermany]

A Johnny Cash-like voice would also fit perfectly

A really cool version nevertheless ^^

[Makearight139]

i love how portnoy has a trumpet nailed to him

[J0000OOOO]

Not bad.

[pyrohead37]

I forgot how good and funny this is. I laughed at every improvisation, and especially at the "YOHOHOHOHO" at the end. Great job!

[MaximumPayne12]

This is an aberration and a disgrace... Fail

[7The7Wanderer7]

im sure some stupid hipster out there thinks this is an improvement to the song...stupid fucking hipsters

[shlomiya]

WHAT THE FUCK HAHAHHAHAHAHHAHA!!!!!

[legatoshred]

they almost just took the lyrics. its fun but stupid

[nofxfan7]

even though it's a joke I actually enjoy this. nice and mellow

[LinoleumKnife79]

Neutral Milk Theater

[Icedmetal57]

Wow, it's such a different song when played like this. Reminds me of The Animals.

[147pablox]

This is really fucking good.. I think you took the DT inspiration in a different way that the progressive one, and that's just Dream Theater's philosophy about..

[TheMetalofilia]

who the fuck is singing?

[Gareththedrummer]

I think this shows how awesome this song is that it can be made into so many different versions, I mean, you couldn't make an indie song into a prog song! ...right?

[EestiLynx]

sound like they're 80 years older, in a pub, after a barrel of beer, making a jam with a drunk mariachi playin the trumpet

nice work Proggo, funny! =D

[v535gamer]

Hahaha! Send this to Jordan, he would love it!

[HylianPirate278]

You know, besides your voice, this actually sounded pretty good! Yeah, I know this was supposed to be a joke, but I actually kinda liked this! =D

[MarcusAndTomTuesdays]

Axis of Awesome reference there!

[EmpyreOfTHUGa]

Can I please have a tab for this?? I want to learn how to play this :D

[Proggo]

@EmpyreOfTHUGa intro and verse chords are C-G-Am-F. prebridge is an E. bridge is Am-C-F-E-Am-C-F-G. chorus is Dm-Am-G-C-G/B-Am-F-C-G

[noconfig]

Portnoy with trumpet is hilarious :-

[Thrasherist]

good version :)

[ko51ya]

Fanny! Send it to John Petrucci!

[fingerboy18]

I like some of your melodies haha!

[Lucas89x]

I'm sorry... i'm not usually the flaming type but you get my number 1 favorite band, get the most popular song off their newest album and make this fucking indie halfwit who cannot sing for shit ( i honestley sing better in the shower...) and made a mock of the song.

this song is shit, pathetic, mockery and a fucking joke.

anyone agree?

[TwoHugeDudes]

@Lucas89x you sure do like video games and prog metal

[prannock]

UUUUH He's making me uptight. This is no accident.

He is definitely doing this on purpose

Mr. Count of Tuscany, could you please ask him to stop?

I LOL'D hard

[petrosonrocking]

oddly i feel in peace listen to this

[Quikquik98]

"Hey, come and have a taste of this wine

It's really, really, really, really, really, really good" I lol'd.

I think the singer sounds a lot like Joel Hodgson (from MST3K).

[PreyingMantisMan]

This is a very good joke, so thank you for a good joke.

[DreamTheater336]

The original song is one of the best songs from DT! this just is a fuck

[julio13wrathchild]

Sounds like Mariachi.

[DavidL1432]

way to butcher it.

[pmacFTO]

Bit too long for a joke version but it's like Pogues meets Green Day and DT :p You really should sing it in an Irish accent...

[PreyingMantisMan]

@pmacFTO Or rather, outsource the singing to someone who can sing... and have THEM sing in an irish accent.

[JoolsGuitar]

this is a cool way of getting unbored and y enjoy it... thanks buddy

[ltgrenier]

The ending is epic.

[mlepore13]

a magical musical experience. i love it.

[FlyingMonkeysWii]

Neutral Milk Hotel WAT

[Ronnrein]

Anyone who thinks this is disrespectful need to get a sense of humour!

[machinehead912]

unsettling, yes, but creative

[nikooxmaster]

Nice ;D

[TommyLuptak]

lol  Nice work! :)

[AdamTL7]

I actually love the vocals haha

[kokletxoxoxo]

gowno to warte

[lehmanpolarbear70]

I am ashamed that I almost like it.

[theori93]

I love that Portnoy is on trumpet

[grape43soda]

lmfao!!!

this was pretty awesome!! haha

I think DT would really enjoy this haha

[joachimveceradlo]

Hahahah, this is quite funny. In a positive manner, I mean. The only thing worse then being covered is not being covered. I think DT would be glad.

[JohnPetrucci251]

lmfao

[squirttilithurts]

omg... vocals please remove!

[thefoosa72]

LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

[immortalsoloist]

LOL....hahahaha



[Silfrgluggr]

why is it catchy O.o

[monkeylemur]

You know, the lyrics really fit as an "indie/folk" category XD

[MrTanookiMario]

It's soooooo long... I mean, in the actual song that's no problem, but this is just ridiculous! XD It was pretty funny though, but I doubt I could ever force myself to go through the whole thing ever again. XP

[eclipseml]

wow this sounds nothing like it lol.

[xuten]

take an indie/folk song , turn it into metal = Nice!

take a metal song and turn it into indie/folk= .. wait what?

take a DT SONG and turn it into indie/folk= BURN HIM ALIVE NOW!!!!

[furiouscake]

it's funniest because of the chord progression. fucking awesome, man.

[ultra888]

That sucks dick.

[LIRRJC]

you suck

[senecadawg2]

@LIRRJC i doubt you could do half as good.

[LIRRJC]

you suck

[speedingfish]

Holy shit, that piano came in and I wet myself in awe.

[RikkudoSennin]

Lmao - dude. What a great tribute to the band. I actually thoroughly enjoyed this. ;D Kudos man!

[Joselo1693]

This is really cool =D and funny.... Great video!!!

[oblisk94xxx]

**** YEAH Portnoy on trumpet!

[tatfr0guy]

portnoy is so beast he can chords with only one trumpet!

[dunnigan1982]

Wow, holy shit, this is pretty good.

OP is Jeff Mangum.

[nekezajebancije]

Portnoy is good at the trumpet.

[Vinocaful]

q medo cara!

[GuitarFosse]

5:30 and out = epic

[euan247]

singing leaves alot to be desired..

[yuyinyu]

Good job man, this is great!!!

[Izlude8482]

Wut

[coltonbunch16]

LMFAO this was pretty cool actually, for some reason I started cracking up when he sang "I met the Count of Tuscany"

[willyrobinson]

Cheers - good job with this. Lots of fun!

:)

[DreamsPambo]

muahahahahahahahhhahahahahahah­aa

[joedestroy46]

thats great!!!

[Arthemesic]

Hahahah this cover is excellent while being terrible!

It's funny as hell, almost genius, but still so awful :DD

I'mma thumb this one up

[sandovalaragao]

hey man, could u send me the tabs of this version? I REALLY WANNA IT. Please send me a message to share it!

[sbowman128675]

this epic!

[jimmeeboy13]

Ha Ha Ha

[Guyverhoeven]

Portnoy on thrumpet? HAHAHAHAHA

[StakerSen]

Sounds good but damn those are some compression problems. Mix everything down, man!

[starbearry]

I think this is from the cd "Black Chutes and Silver Ladders"

[Lopo27]

@starbearry HAHAHAHAHHAHA I FUCKING LOL'D

[Sduibek]

Haha that was enjoyable. Dragged on a bit at times, but hey it's a parody so I can't really complain :P Horns remind me of Cake. Some other parts of the song definitely remind me of A Mighty Wind, and a couple short moments I was reminded of Arlo Guthrie. Not sure if that was intensional or my ears are just crazy again.

[rushlimbang]

why no 16th notes from the horns?  This is not DT.

[EdgetheSquirrel]

Amazing. Why is Jordan using a banjo though? Because of the banjo that he played to mike dancing in the making of black clouds and silver linings?

[ericssonro]

lol^^

[zakkwyldeverehrer]

it's not a VERSION, it's any song with the TCOT lyrics. simple thing. It would be very cool if you played this song in this style...

[psyshock918]

a little too lighthearted for my taste, but great effort!

[gdrv02]

HILARIOUS!!! especially 6:30 jajajajajajajaja

[agueloinc]

OMG this is SO EPIC!

[havi0003]

i never knew labrie was a fan of neutral milk hotel..interesting cover

[michaelvrnqn]

Muy buena version!!! Awesome!

[RevBlood]

Hilarious! Seriously!! xD You absolutely brought this masterpiece down! :D

[Kit9243]

lmao i love this!

[FULLMETALPROCHANNEL]

oh no!!! lol!!! you killed DT!!! hahahah

[greggles12345]

lol!

[dnieldt]

this is fucking great man!!

[simonsoviknes0]

but if jordan playing the banjo, than who plays the piano?

[peujapiassureis]

awasome!

[TriangularDuck]

this owns

[neoctopusos]

Who is the author of this folk version?

[Proggo]

@neoctopusos I am the author of this folk version!

[neoctopusos]

That was great!!! I need a MP3 copy, please. How can I obtain it?

[Lucas89x]

@Proggo if your the real author of this song do yourself a BIG favor and stick to your indie shit, no matter how hard you try you cannot EVER turn any dream theater masterpiece indie, it just doesn't happen...

indie is like "hey i cant sing for shit and i can only play c major / blues scales, oh and i dye my hair black woo?"

don't mean to flame ya but this song is a JOKE :p

[firelegendmushroom]

@Lucas89x I think its meant to be a joke XD

[Proggo]

@Lucas89x Why don't you read the description before you post?

[hotguitar81]

Funny!Funny!Funny!Funny!Funny!­

[panicoddr]

kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk­k

[nicg908]

Loving the neutral milk hotel shirt lmao!!!

[superbonk]

LOOOOOL at the ending lyrics... now the lyrics make sense with the music, congratulations :D

[12340012340]

haha thats great!

[Balu027]

Well, it has a special atmosphere, and it's pretty funny, but sorry, I don't really like it:)

[quesefodam10vezes]

well you say its supposed to be taken as a joke, and I get that, but damn dude, its a pretty bad joke :\

[Kimhojung43200115]

Good cover. Would you cover in the presence of enemies too?

[Sduibek]

@Kimhojung43200115 HA! Totally, I wanna see that. "Ohhhhhhhh darkmaster... you are so very powerful, I wish to seeeerve you for ever and ever... I sinned and sold my soul, and that really sucks, but you're a cool dude so i'm really ok" or something

[mandback]

PUAJ!

[imoeng]

dear lord! this is awesome! great job dude. funny as.

[hydana1]

haha i liked! xD

[LordJimmy]

I love Dream Theater, and I have never been all that thrilled by Indie Rock.

But oh god, my lungs.

[Tanax13]

This was disgraceful to Dream Theater.

I liked the piano in the end though. That was the only good thing in this song.

[Proggo]

@Tanax13 Haha, I would have said the exact same thing 5 years ago.

[chaveznieves]

@Tanax13 its not disgraceful at all.

i guarantee if the members of DT saw this they'd laugh

[thefranzfrom1991]

jeje

[fahim113]

Freakin awesome dude!! How about trying the same thing on a few other DT songs?! Pull me under springs to mind...

[DonKupalesco]

Hahaha I lol'd hard :D

Great respect for your efforts...

And espacially for the ending lyrics!

[iloveafter]

i like your slur on "brother"

[OLord2]

lol! wtfuck

[VSUDEL]

:O lol!

[Zophixan]

I thought the singing was quite good :-s

[Tanax13]

Are you fucking kidding? The singing sounds like rust in my ears. He isn't even in tune, lol.

[HollowZim]

as a concept its kinda cool, the instruments were true to folk songs (i.e played badly) but my god do the vocals feel like a cheesegrater on my delicate earsies. Don't quit your day job

[progreviews]

AWESOME!!!

[halterman666]

all i can say... AWESOME AND FUNNY

[Kisamefan2]

Lol!

[Nollie87]

This is very unsettling.

[MRCAB]

This would be cool if the singer wasn't so monotone.

[chaveznieves]

no. just...no

[doidiz89]

haha

[nunyensenat]

sorry dude but you suck big time !!!!!

is not liberties you only try to make a joke but as a comedian man you are a awesome banjo player .

[nominein]

hahaha, hilarious! :D

[oarseman]

I did, but didn't save the joke

[McCheko]

i like it (:

[oarseman]

¿Some liberties?

This has nothing to do with the real song, it would have been funny if it had any relation besides the lyrics, but it doesn't,

this could be any song, sorry but you suck at being funny

[Proggo]

I guess you didn't listen to the end.

[enrealidad]

hhehe pretty funny, but pretty nice
