Yeah! Oh, Yeah!- Magnetic Fields (feat. krabbers)(I mean "vs")

[smdb1980]

The best cover song! The funny and the furious... I love it! ^^

[mctrmt]

@smdb1980

Thanks- I'm glad krabbers agreed to do this with me; he's so great.

[basillisks]

Love that you are doing a little video editing too. The cover is perfect, the vid is the icing on the cake!!!

[mctrmt]

@basillisks

Ha! The editing is all krabbers' doing. Glad you like it!

[Marchofdapigz]

i love it!

[Israe5l]

I don't know what to say to this one. I liked your singing. Soft and tempting. But this guy...I know he wrote the song and all, but it seems so abrupt.

[bellydweller]

the kitty on the couch is clearly spared of the hideous human condition. I can't even rest that peacefully.

[thestylophonecouncil]

O h YEAH

[chloeBENSONyoooo]

Love this.

Soooo pretty.

I love all of your covers, though.

Very beautiful singing voice.

And I love your uke.

[mctrmt]

@chloeBENSONyoooo

Thanks, thanks, thanks, thanks, thank you!!

[franksm2001]

Absolutely fantastic ! That was more than okay :-)

[mctrmt]

@franksm2001

Oh, thank you.

[idrnoel]

There are times one will just randomly browse uke videos and suddenly stumble upon something really amazing. This is one of those precious moments.

[mctrmt]

@idrnoel

Wow; thanks very much!

[MrLoomboy]

will you marry me

I am in love...truly

[mctrmt]

Aw, thanks!

But, no.

[Joe9017]

Loved that, thank you.

[gamerman123456789]

that was'nt just okay , that was awesome!...loved it.

[57kristof57]

Really cool Video end Yours voice, Thanx Lady ! :-)

[mbrakey]

There is something very powerful about this song and I love how you guys tackle it. Magnific.

[mctrmt]

Why thank you!

[ukeshale]

aaaah, i still love this :)

[mctrmt]

Thanks, Shane.

[marcopirescom]

You are greeeeat! I remembered Claudia from MF the first time i heard a cover from you... it was Sonne Statt Reagan... so funny! I also love your sleepy cat, I wish i could also stand on the sofa and hear your songs!

[mctrmt]

Thanks!

I wish my cat was always that sleepy. He wouldn't get into so much trouble.

[pearldan]

i just adore this vid of urs!!

[mctrmt]

Thanks- krabbers did a really good job.

[teepeeok]

Merrit & the Uke can't be beat- check my vids let's collab!

[mctrmt]

Thank you! Let me know if you have something in mind.

[JorgWobblington]

This is great, but I think it would be even greater if krabbers was dressed as a tree.

[mctrmt]

lol- I think he almost was.

[leobloomvideo]

excellent!

[mctrmt]

Thanks very much!

[Trace9924]

Wow, That was awesome. I was already a sub to mctrmt, but at one to krabbers after that. Thanks for introducing him to me.

[mctrmt]

You will not regret it!

[StephinMerritt]

real nice

[mctrmt]

thanks :)

[PGEILBO]

This is just the best thing. I'm poleaxed. I've never heard the original, but I doubt it would make me cry at work.

[mctrmt]

Thanks very much! Sorry about the axing.

[mugambismonkey]

Hilarious! I LOVE Krabber's extremely enthusiastic "Yeah, oh yeah" spurts at the beginning. *rofl* Apart from that the song is great. Just wonderful!

[mctrmt]

Krabbers is great. Thanks for the comment!

[grizzvolga]

This is easily my favourite Magnetic Fields song, ad I must say that this sounds better than the original. The girl's voice is beautiful, and the guy's harmonies add the perfect counterpoint. Congratulations!

[mctrmt]

*blush*

[krabbers]

thanks for the comment

[michaelmikelmicc]

this is one of my favorite songs. thanks for the nice cover

[krabbers]

cheers

[Superhelter]

This is truly beautiful!

[mctrmt]

Thanks, It's all in the reverb that krabbers added.

[Superhelter]

Nonsense! Its down to the both of you. You have a really nice voice.

[krabbers]

reverb rules

[ukeshale]

wow. this was really stunning

[mctrmt]

Thanks!

[iamthetigerr]

this is SO beautiful

:)

amazing cover, dear!

[mctrmt]

Thanks very much!

[SailQwest]

Awesome! What a great song, and you did a fabulous job with it!

[mctrmt]

Thanks, SailQuest. I was glad krabbers agreed to it.

[nikkimo66]

what program are you using for that sweet mix-sound?

[mctrmt]

You'll have to ask krabbers- he did the final mix-down.

[terrytruhart]

Great chorus effect. I love the complement of the "man in the woods" Thank you for making something beautiful.

[mctrmt]

You are ever so welcome.

[phreddcatt]

Excellent.  Love it.

[mctrmt]

thanks; it's a fun one to sing

[nikkimo66]

i love this!! awesome!

[mctrmt]

thank you very much

[seeso]

Holy shit, this is great!! :D

[mctrmt]

Thank you Seeso!

[subwo]

Mary-Anne, great! You and Krabbers sing well as a duet. I recommend you both do Ukulele Lady, that old 1925 song. Stumbled on your vids with Major Tom and had to watch them all in one sitting.

[mctrmt]

Thanks very much; glad you like the videos!

[mctrmt]

Thanks very much, Adelle.

[hoosierhiver]

I love this vid!

[mctrmt]

Thanks, hoosier.

[deach69]

Can't get enough of this.

[mctrmt]

Thanks, deach.

[KenMiddletonUkulele]

This is wonderful, Mary-Anne. The intro and backing sounds like something from "Pet Sounds" (the greatest album of all time). And the singing from both of you works so well.

KEN

[mctrmt]

Thank you so much, Ken.

[Sammyboy72]

Love, love, love it! I love the Magnetic Fields! Do Book of Love for me? Please?

[mctrmt]

I'll see what I can do...

[Sammyboy72]

I would be forever thankful. It's my absolute favourite Magnetic Fields song, and it would be PERFECT with your voice. Perfect.

[uke5417]

Love this

[mctrmt]

Thank you.

[speedyfingers99]

Brilliant. That's a great song. Love the contrast between you and the woods man. Do you play any shows?

[mctrmt]

Thanks!

I play as part of an art/folk duo, but haven't done anything solo in public in quite some time. Maybe it's time to hit the open stage again.

[chriscarlonemusic]

what a fantastic duet!!!!

[mctrmt]

Thanks. I'm very happy with it.

[GrumpyCoyoteTunes]

Brilliant. Tucker is not moving though - which is always disconcerting. I always assume that like a shark, he has to keep moving.

Just a spectacularly dark and wonderful number and a simply perfect version. Loved it. A new favorite for me.

[mctrmt]

Tucker is either running like a fiend, or in a recuperative coma. Luckily for me it was the latter this time.

I'm glad you like the song- it is one of me favorites.

[jimbeaubjj]

That was just awesome!!!! Great collab....

[mctrmt]

thanks!

[worschd21]

lovely tune, guys,

great collaboration, didnt know this song before, its awesome!

[nubbs]

that was great. i love that song (even if it's a little macabre)

[mctrmt]

I love it *because* it's a little macabre.

[treismac]

Very cool duet (vs. battle)!

[mctrmt]

Usually it's just me vs the cat. It was nice to involve a fellow human.

[krabbers]

you voice is perfect for this song and it was real pleasure to this with you, thanks

[krabbers]

ooh yeah

thanks for the tip

[krabbers]

whoa whos that handsome chap in the woods

[BenTheWriter]

Fantastic! Krabbers is awesome, and I'm pretty sure I'm going to devote my life to building a robot that can synthesize your voice, mctrmt.

[mctrmt]

Give it plenty of mayo and mercury-laden albacore tuna and it will run just fine.

[FiveDollarGuitar]

and this is why i like youtube so very much!!

added to favs 5*****

[mctrmt]

Yay! Thank you!

[BaronK69]

This is great! Your voice is absolutely beautiful and work so well with krabbers' manly growl. Great job Mary-Anne and Krabbers!

[mctrmt]

it's the reverb.

[UnluckyMum]

This is a brilliant collab- one of the best i have ever seen, by 2 of the bestest i have ever heard :)

[mctrmt]

Thank you, Mum!

[russbuss415]

a great collab M-A and krabbers. well produced!

[mctrmt]

Thanks, Russ. I knew it would be good if krabbers participated.

[kitrinospiti]

I love Magnetic field!! Oh I can't believe I'm still up...! I shoud go work and then to sleep but I'm stuck here watching video's! (but they worth it!) I even consider starting ukulele but I don't know if I'll find a teacher here in Greece!!

[mctrmt]

Thanks very much! I hope the videos were worth any lost productivity.

[Sammyboy72]

You really don't need a teacher. If you can play any other instrument, you'll find it easy, and even if not, there are plenty of resources on the net. You'll do fine - give it a try.
