  • Howie Mendel rocking the Unukalhai :)

  • Liked the Glee version so much better!!

  • i love him

  • That drummer is awesome!!

  • Ell Oh Ell !! A bunch of talentless couch potatoes with high expectancies, criticizing someone else's success. And really, they ain't so bad live. Get your head out of the fantasy, fake world of t.v.'s and cell phones.

  • oh this is soooooo bad!! :( i luv their song.. sucks big time on live! :( so so disappointing!!!

  • thumbs up if you hate advertisements

  • NICE SONG:D <3

  • Nice Song<3 :D

  • Oh, heck to the yes he is a singer AND an out of this world voice!!!

    and yes, he can perform

    ;)

  • He is not a singer but, he is a performer...

    If he make a concert, i will come to to see them...

    nice songs anyway...

  • he's a total spazz on stage!

  • They suck reeeaallly bad live!!

  • @sweJulgran Not that it was very good to begin with.

  • Wow, they are really bad live!

  • worst shit ever

  • @1337totte Yup, but actually i thought that their studio version sound worse.

  • Awesome :)

  • Oh my god, my ears are getting raped!

  • What is it with singers recording stuff they can't pull of properly live, these days!?

  • @Oxpost live performances aren't all about perfection. Sure, this isn't the greatest vocal performance ever, but touring does that to the voice. Just be glad he's not lip syncing or autotuning. I think today there's way too much pressure to make things as perfect as the cd. If you wanna hear the cd, go listen to it. a live performance is about the emotion, and show you put on. as far as album recordings go, there's sometimes a lot of time put into making thinks perfect.

  • @EthMan09 Is it really to much to ask for an artist to actually be able to pull of his/her/their stuff live? Look back in time to the 70's, 60's when more or less every single artist where brilliant live. It's not a question about perfection. It's a perfectly reasonable expectation!

  • wow

    

  • I love this

  • jadore

  • he can't reach some high notes. but still awesome ")

  • wow hes like actually rly old....

    by still rly awsome :)

  • Vocalist sounds great on acoustic.... Its hard to get that high for a guy, so excuse him for looking like a monkey. Funny comment but this is one of the greatest bands Ive heard in a while. Beats Justin Bieber and Kesha. x100. Lol.

  • 0:43 - 1:27 pretty good, after that...

  • no street corner symphony is waaaaaayyy better

  • QUIT CHUCKING MY WOOD!

  • the glee version is better do any of you have a glee bag i have one that says kiss my glee

  • ok, hate too say it but I like the Darren Criss Glee version MUCH better...

  • 4ever. DSJ&SLJ good for the Honeymoon. 

  • Everyone Type "Won" Before youtube.com

  • If this was on a morning show, it's really tough to sing early in the morning, and not every performance is going to be perfect. I love acoustic performances with all their imperfections more than perfect studio versions. Love the song. Best cover of this I think is by David Archuleta.

  • You no he dosn't have a bad voice.....but in this video it sounds like he blew out his voice like on tour or something so.....I'm going to give it a "thumbs up"!!

  • I've heard this song live plenty of times now and each time you can tell he's pushing the limits of his range. He should sing with an earpiece so he can hear himself sing and maybe that can help. They probably didn't anticipate this song being such a hit where he'd have to sing it constantly live. Studio recordings, as well as video editing has evolved to a point where they are really blurring what is real and what is artificial.

  • 98 people dont know true music

  • uck he SUCKS when he's live. I love the song, love the studio version, but he can't sing live.

  • dnt read this coz it works YOU WILL GET KISSED ON THE NEAREST POSSIBLE FRIDAY BY THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE. TOMORROW WILL BE THE BEST DAY OF YOUR LIFE. HOWEVER IF YOU DO NOT POST THIS COMMENT TO AT LEAST 3 VIDEOS YOU WILL DIE WITHIN 2 DAYS. NOW UV STARTED READING THIS SO DUNT STOP. THIS IS SO SCARY. PUT THIS ON AT LEAST 5 VIDEOS IN 143 MINUTES WHEN UR DONE PRESS F6 AND UR LOVERS NAME WILL APPEAR ON THE SCREEN IN BIG LETTERS. THIS IS SO SCARY CAUSE IT ACTUALLY WORKS

    Oh god they have to replace him!!!

  • Comment removed

  • san francisco? he must be gay...

  • love this song

  • lol hhis dance moves look like he needs to poop haha

  • hey! singers have both good and bad days. As a singer your range can significantly vary depending on how much rest you've been getting, how well you've been taking care of your vocals either by training or avoiding certain drinks... (so many factors)

    so don't judge this guy just because he had some little pitch problems on one performance. no singer can be perfect everyday. in fact this song is a pretty difficult song to sing at the key he chose to sing it.

  • @senfastek not to mention.... the fact that he went off a few times shows he doesn't auto-tune. auto-tuning is like..... air guitar.

  • isn't it Hey San Fransico?

  • all us girls love this group!

  • you wanna hear a bunch of winey retards listen to my chemical romance live.. i aint gonna lie i was a big fan til i heard them live.. sounded like a bunch of dieing somethings... but after this i still like train =)

  • I know there are scandals with lip syncing sometimes. But please in this instance I would actually prefer it.

  • Good thing that studios have technology to make him sound like he does on the album. Whew

  • oh my god! he sucks.. delusion!! i spent all my summer listening to this ???? :D i suppose he himself puked after this performance also thanks to his drunkness:D

  • Comment removed

  • this guy really cant sing all that well. its all computers helpin him on his singles

  • hey sounds like shit

    but i dont like them anyway

  • howie mandel plays the uke?

  • you guys are all saying that is not easy for a male to sing that high, but he was the one who wanted to sing like that.. he's problem.

  • ^ ^ ^ scarred me for life .

  • lol howie mandel plays the ukelele? O_o

  • hey thats not howie mandel

    he is just a dude that looks exactly like him but not really

  • @TheMysteryStain hey thats not howie mandel

    thats just a dude that looks like him 

  • What's this song about?

  • i knew a girl that gave my life direction but she never liked me

  • beautiful

  • hahaha ursäkta men han ser fan ut som bög

  • its very good its one of my fave songs

  • canta mal pra krl

  • Nice to be so critical. This is one of the few bands I have seen live and acoustical that can actually sing. If this version isn't perfect enough for ya I'm sure there is a studio (aka millie vanille) video of Brittany Spears on you tube.

  • @TheRhinolight Seems to me he is always straining to sing when he is live unless . He sounds good on the radio.

  • @Kagaines Obviously, you've never heard of Auto-Tune.

  • @SamuelWelshans No I havent.

  • @TheRhinolight  What. The. Fuck did you mean with ''that can actually sing''?

  • @TheRhinolight Actually he sings out of key...

  • Get a haircut hippy! 

  • I hate it when they do stuff like this , it makes it look like the first song made is perfect and every other one sang sucks!

  • His singing is a bit off

  • 0:00

  • look at his hair

  • Train is timeless!

  • THIS SUCKS! lol

  • I like the way this sounds.

  • I DISLIKE THIS GAY FAGOT SHIT! LOL! FUCK! lol

  • @negativefuckhead You do? And he always speaks so well of you!! But I won't. Eat shit die asshole and be quick about it!

  • @desertpolar

    Your anger Amuses ME! LOL! FUCKER! lol

  • yah he must be intoxicateed or something i mean look at him

  • @op0126 music is intoxicateing i mean shit i look like michel j fox playing guitar music just makes u move

  • Muito Bom (Y)

  • 0:1

    

  • Hey usually is much better than this. I think he is strung out or something..Check out train soundstage performances 2006 or his ellen degeneres hey soul sister live performance.Its much better. Also check live ramble on cover at the X lounge

  • Huh, never knew Howie Mandel could play ukulele like that.

  • @HanMan3000 Goddammit you beat me to it.

  • @Pissankle Hahaha! Great minds think alike ;)

  • should have taken it down a couple steps, to sing perfectly on this key is hard.

  • LOL. he looks drunk. xD

  • wtf. this is a pretty damn good live performance. lol. especially singing in this style, AND because this song is just a pretty hard song to sing. people need to realize studio versions are comprised of 108192859128512095 takes. his voice is pretty unique. gotta love it.

  • Thumbs up for Howie Mandel.

  • HATES ADVERTISEMENTS

  • beautiful song : ]

  • Wait!! I'm waiting for some troll to say "Fake!"

  • I honestly don't think hes that bad live.. definattly not as good and some flat notes but not bad! I guess its just me :P

  • he's really ugly, old and raggedy...gross. Plus he's just awful. Shower once please? I'll stick to listening to this on my ipod so I can't see him and the sound is altered

  • way out of toon

  • @koala4dictator Its tune. LOL im so ctitical!

  • @koala4dictator You mean like! Cartoon? Or Tune? Idiot!

  • dammit, this song is so cute!

  • @scorpgdss realy? Cute? OMG! Cat's are cute... wtf please explain?

  • Wow, tough crowd! but you don't win Grammy's if you suck! He definately blew out his voice, but the show must go on! Check out his performance on livefromdarryl'shouse.com with Darryl hall from Hall & Oates and his great band!

  • he kinda sucks in person

  • they guy is definately gay

  • Was that Howie Mandell playing the Ukalele?

  • i like it better live. considering what the song is about, it makes it sound alot more real.

  • I must say I think he did ok when hitting the higher notes, at least in the beginning. The rest sounds like crap. I like Train and their music, I just think they suck live. But its ok, we have the power ok technology!

  • @blondieseventeen i like the song but i have to agree, i think this song sounded better on the radio lol

  • It's really great already for a man to sing that high of notes~! Whenever i sing this song, I almost got chocked because Im sucks :(

  • I LHJKRHGB,KRT G,JHRTGBRJGHR....BBJGNHG GETJWGM  WWWJHOETGJYRTJNGTHJGKEHJHGEJH.­....EEMHGJHGJHGJHGJEHJRHTGJKHG­JRHTJHKJHEKJHEJGHGKJREGHGRGBHG­NJJKHGJREHKWERBNBERHGJBHGTKHJW­JEHJHJERJJJJJJERTKJJJJRKHJHRJH­GERBJRTGHBHJGRBERBFHJFDJHWGHJR­GERGJHTGEHJGJHGRHJJERGHJGEGJKH­ERGUHRHKWBJRGKWKJHRHEHGJRGHRTG­RJHGWJHGRGBHRGHRIWRBJEHERHWKRG

  • Everyone's a critic I suppose. He's doing fine and he's not extraordinarily off. If anything his issue is he's jumping around way too much for such a demanding vocal performance (for someone with his only mediocre range).

  • my problem has never been him hitting the notes live... but him hitting the WRONG notes... being flat, etc...

    Doing this song live, is not easy by any means, but the number one complaint is that he simply can't do it live.

  • Wow they aren't too great live. Gotta give em' props tho.

  • FYI to those criticizing his voice, he had been sick for about 2 months previous to this to the point where they had canceled a few shows and he was having trouble with his voice. you can hear it that it was clearly bothering him on this day. normally his voice is very clear and sounds beautiful and he has no trouble hitting his notes.

  • @IrishSwtAngel seriously? wow i didn't know that that makes sense

  • @mixedfan309 yeah, i've been a fan for years so i follow them on twitter and they had announced that Pat was having issues w/ his voice. i went to see them around the time this was filmed and he did amazingly well but there were certain notes he apologized for cuz he just couldn't hit them that night.

  • @IrishSwtAngel oh okay thx

  • @IrishSwtAngel Exactly. When they were on Howard Stern years ago, they covered some Led Zeppelin songs and he hit every note. Those songs aren't the easiest to sing live.

  • he must be eiither sore or nervous they must work  wonders at the studio but it those seem like his throut is sore

  • it aint easy for any male to sing that high

  • i don't think he's that bad.... it's a fucking hard song to sing

  • i dont get why every1 says hes horrible. pretty good live in my opinion. ive heard better, ive heard worse. this isnt hard on the ears at all tho

  • Hey!....a #1 song you get to see for free......be thankful to get to see this top act on tV

  • He sounds like he woke up with a sore throat or a cold or something.

  • @Antonio865 this is how he sounds live

  • Try to sing for hours every night for months and see if your voice doesn't get a little rough on the high notes. Studios are different because they typically aren't going right into the studio right after a tour. Some bands will change the key to make it easier on the performer to do 6 shows a week without hurting their voice.

  • wow he is not actually that bad i was reading the comments during the commercial and it is pretty good

  • blessed you must never see live musicians this is how they are before studios get them now

    and as they go he is great

  • blessed you must never see live musicians this is how they are before studios get them now

  • 0:01

  • HE DID GOOD:)

  • Comment removed

  • He's missing notes left and right. Probably sick, stoned, or drunk. Regardless, missed notes are not impressive.

  • hes really not that bad, first off its live second its his style, hes not gonna go up there and try to sing it like justin bieber would, this is a totally different type of singing

  • Well they don't have the voice enhancers necessary to make their voices sound like professionals. Not everyone has a real voice to sing

  • he looks so drunk!
