  • fucking great song by a great band, yeah i got my feet in the air and my head on the ground, , spin it, the special pixies

  • It's not a cover people. They're just performing the song.

  • @Oallright I thought that counted as a cover?

  • @thagrammarnazi I wouldn't count it. I'm not trying to be a dick. They're my favorite band, and Pixies aren't far behind, but Ryan Adams' "Wonderwall", Jeff Buckley's "Hallelujah", Jimi's "All Along the Watchtower" and The White Stripes "Death Letter" are covers. The band needs to show creation on their part too. Then it becomes a whole new song. You know?

  • @Oallright Well no-one's trying to be EXACTLY the same when they're covering a song, but i get what you mean though, it's like a, re-imagining, right?

  • @thagrammarnazi Yeah. Sometimes songwriters take more from a song than most people can. But hey, we can call this a cover. It's not like they slapped it on a b-side or anything.

  • @Oallright you fucking kidding me, right? have you ever heard of Pixies? Oh boy, here we go...

  • @TheDantonable Yes.

  • Pixies are the only ones who should do this track sorry KOL but average attempt

  • good cover!!!

  • ... "Where is my mind, and there's NOTHING!! in it and you'll ASK!!! yourself.." It's like he kept falling asleep before the end of each sentence and then waking up abruptly.

  • mannn! stop giving the kings of leon beef for covering a song!

  • the only straight rock band left

  • Kings of Leon= way more famous than the pixies BUT thats what makes the pixies great...you have to go out and find them, they arent jammed down your throat on the radio and TV

  • @liamlynch5 kings of leon are what you call mainstream

  • @THERDWON3 i'm 15 and i know my fucking music dammit. i've been singing to the pixies since i was 2..

  • I don't recognize them without birds shitting on them

  • wtf is wrong with everyone.. both the pixies and the song are extremely famous.. obviously kings of leon aint taking credit... just a cover of the song.. if u seen local band at a bar play the song youd be on theyre dick so chill out.. we get it your like 15 and think no one else knows about music

  • i think this kinda sounds like a kings of leon song but no one will ever outplay the pixies

  • There not stealing you fucking twat, there making a cover, uneducated fuck.

  • @ATLcameron "they're" not "there".....

  • @Kira531193 LOL

  • In the parlance of our times-- Epic Fail.

  • fuck u kings of leon, don't steal from REAL people who make music

  • The Pixies ROCK!!!

    

  • Though really bad, not as bad as the James Blunt cover.

  • Haters of the Kings Of Leon really wind me up.. Yeah their new stuff is mainstream and not the best, but overall they're an awesome band. I mean listen to 'Because of the Times' for God's sake!! They are one of the only remaining mainstream bands with talent left! Because their talent is undeniable. So you know.. Shut up.

  • Why are people blaming KoL as the reason why viewers think they wrote the song, it says COVER in the title. its the viewers own damn fault that theyre stupid and dont know that already/cant read the title. and nobody is saying Kings played it better (because they didnt) but its still a good cover. plus they never said it was their song at the show to begin with - i was there. they just played and thought people would recognize it. geez.

  • Shite! :)

  • Drummer owns cellphone

  • what a cocksucker band

  • KOF please make YOUR OWN music

  • @bkrman did it ever occur to you that they actually like the Pixies themselves and thats why they wanted to play the song? theyre not trying to rip off a song, its called a cover.

  • @bkrman KOF? Who's that? They must really suck. Good thing KoL have five albums, a few EPs, and countless B-Sides and just enjoyed covering a song they liked. Whew, I sure would hate it if they didn't make their own music. I'd like to know who KOF are if you have the chance to tell me though.

  • @hangsambo12 well yea this is just a cover of the song but alot of people i know think the kings wrote this shit.the pixies wrote this song and they sounded like 200000 times better then the kings no direspect to the kings but i dont want them taking credit for this awsome song, the pixies deserve recognition

  • @NathanSalzmanSkates Kings aren't taking credit for the song...some of there fans are just stupid and thats not something they can really prevent

  • FUCKING HELL, PIXIES DIDNT MAKE THE TOP 1000 SONGS OF ALL TIME ON MAX!!!! I AM SO PISSED!! MAX IS SHITHOUSE ANYWAY, SO ARE ALL MUSIC HANNELS, BUT STILL, THEY SHOULD SHOW A LITTLE GOOD MUSIC EVERY NOW AND THEN, AT LEAST NIRVANA MADE IT,

  • never like pixies! lack of soul

  • Nothing compares to u Pixies my love!

  • caleb has a hell of a voice of course this was gonna be good

  • I like the real pixies one more, but this was good... Everyone saying "It sucks" should shut the fuck up, Like you could do better.. Its called a cover, Which means kings of leon like this band and are covering their good music... Rock n roll is about having a good time not about being dicks

  • awful just awful. please stop playing other bands' great music and makin it SUCK ! 

  • @NuttersForFraggle bloody brilliant mate!

  • Comment removed

  • This is a great song and is simple as hell to play. I taught my girlfriend who had never picked up a guitar in her life the bass part in one sitting (all 4 notes of it) because she can sing the high pitched "woo-oo" part. That and the fact that every band on the face does a cover of this song pretty much prove what geniuses The Pixies are.

  • I'll never forget this show.

  • @laziogoalie6 Is from Pixies, this band inspired the sound of Nirvana in the Nevermind (watch "7 ages of rock")

  • Don't blame bands for selling out - its no fun being a starving artist. These guys however, are hacks. Im only on this vid because i was listening to the pixies version.

  • I wish I had never heard this, once was too many. :(

  • @laziogoalie6 Stop acting stupid

  • by far the only good new band....these days new musicians are all about fucking money and fame therefore they suck balls!! Lady gaga can kiss mi culo!

  • @toyomore i would have to disagree, if these guys were really about the music they wouldn't of walked off stage in St. Louis MO because of a little bird shit

  • @toyomore , u kinding me , kings of leon , have majorly sold out , they even have a clothing line

  • @laziogoalie6 this was origionally a pixies song

  • this cover is definitely makes the band not suck as much.

  • FUCK...there is not a dislike button!!!

    kings of SUCK

  • @uglycoyote13 uhm its by the like button....... under neath the pause button

  • @MW2Junkee uhm...clever guy...try hitting the dislike button...

  • @uglycoyote13 fuck. i guess your right dude hahaha wasnt payin attention

  • Good cover, but no one does it better than the bloody PIXIES!

  • @British0Pixie -> search for petethebox he does it better

  • @British0Pixie - Calm down everyone - they are paying homage to the Pixies by covering this great song. Listen to Surfer Rosa. Doolittle is also great :)

  • KINGS OF GAYON SUCK!!!

  • i love how people think this is kings of leons song when its actually by this band called the pixies back in the 80 s

  • @NathanSalzmanSkates I love how people don't know the pixies and especially this song when this is such a beatifull creation

  • @NathanSalzmanSkates oh i love that.

  • @NathanSalzmanSkates is it really by this band called the pixies from the 80's?i think you're a genius.

  • @NathanSalzmanSkates nobody thinks that, it says cover in the title you plebian

  • @NathanSalzmanSkates nobody thinks that :P

  • @fruitconor yeah who thinks that, ive never heard any1 think that aha :)

  • @NathanSalzmanSkates no one thinks this is a kings of leon song. 

  • This is much better than I expected.

  • puuuuuta!!! amo a los kings!!! no sabia ke habian hecho este cover

    Genial :D

  • IM SO FUCKING JEALOUS!! I love this song and am so happy they covered it! i was at four of their shows this summer and they didnt play it at any of them :( oh well I love these guys to death! I love this video!! thanks for posting!!

  • Always said that if where to cover some else's songs this should be one of the first ones.

  • @FerrariP4 that if where to cover some else's songs? hahaa

  • damn it.... they didnt play this when I saw them.....and is it me or has their setlist gotten shorter....they used to play 22/23 songs.....only about 19/20 a show now.

  • @emotive07 ya know? my friend that i went to a few shows with also noticed that the set list had gotten shorter this year. I hadnt really noticed but it's funny that you mention it. Lol.

  • i was there and pretty stoked to here this. You were pretty close too... nice video!
