good to see a girl group playn some good music, the 7 people who dislike it are jelous, i play guitar,bass ang drums myself so no the hard work in getting things to sound rite, well done all of ya especialy the violinist u realy stood out, sure keep me updated im a fan , love that end solo
Bit of a geek moment: The violinist looks remarkably like Freema Agyeman, who played Martha Jones on Doctor Who.
Back on topic, this cover is wonderful, though you may want to vary the vocal harmonies a bit. Try to have each singer make better use of their ranges, and you may get a fuller sound. Also, just for the coolness factor, find someone who plays upright bass. It is my personal belief that there aren't nearly enough upright basses in today's music.
Awesome you guys.. I started learning the violin a few weeks ago and i was trying to figure out the notes by ear all day.. it helped listening to this!

i agree that the vocals are lacking a little bit. but that doesn't mean you are guys aren't great! maybe if you got someone to sing without having to worry about playing at the same time. or, one of you could just practice playing and singing at the same time so it comes more naturally. some of the rhythms of the lyrics just get choppy sometimes, prob cuz you guys are singing and playing at the same time. again, you guys are great! can't wait to watch more!
WOW!!! this is really great!!! Thank you Nothing for a While, I think I'm one of your fans now. I've been listening to this great cover for a couple of hours now. By the way, great violin at 4:17
It's great that you got a violin. Nice touch. However, the vocals are pretty weak and juvenile. You also don't do enough with dynamics and contrasting with the rhythm instruments. A nice effort, but the overall effect is amateurish.
It was meant as an honest critique, not an attack. The author of this video seemed to appreciate critique from someone else, actually, so I thought I'd contribute another opinion from a purely musical point of view.
I wouldn't have bothered commenting at all if this video didn't show the group's potential. With some tweaking, this cover could be better than it already is.
People that really suck, I just laugh at from afar. That also is the truth.
Just need like, a drummer, a bassist, someone to run around with a tom drum and a couple of horn instruments and it would be epic to the max. It's pretty good rendition none the less. Got the feel down just right.
For real I am involuntarily adding my own bass. BOOMBOOMBOOMBOOM(Lies! Lies!) Give me a call the next time you play this song. It would give me great pleasure to run around the stage beating a drum.
I guess it'd be difficult to cover this song sucsessfully as there are so many instruments. I do like your version, but I prefer the original, if you don;t mind me saying.
Haha well there was a hint of sarcasm there, but honestly we didn't and don't expect to live up to arcade fire. That's not to say we weren't proud of our video though.
Haha This video was amazing! Oreon10 is a dumbass, I thought the singing and the vioin was great. Especially that sick ass solo at the end.....crazyyy =]
Hey violinist, that was awesome at the end. You captured the song perfectly. :)
