Oh Land - "White Winter Hymnal" (FLEET FOXES COVER!!!)

[BlueGreenStuff]

@IKhantSpel I'm not some whiney-ass child who complains about single change Youtube makes. So unless you can't except change, you won't survive that long in life. Plus, go rant on something like this somewhere else. This is a video about Oh Land, not "Oh new youtube sucks omggg".

[MrLeeKnees]

sounded tacky as fuck

[OskarAwards]

what's that thing she using? it's awesome!

[AnthonyrCampos]

THIS IS HER VERSION FOR THOSE WHO LIKE WHAT SHE DOES, if you like better the FF version which is perfect to, go to their page.

[duckinggrain]

The song loses it's great natural organicism with the electronic stuff, I feel like the lack of acoustic elements and missing harmonies leave this version empty.

[flyingpostaldude]

i think she did a pretty good job

[grande0420]

started out good then I'm not sure what the hell happened lol

[peterkray]

Fleet foxes are piece of shit anyway

[TheBeandip13]

@peterkray go die they've proven to be one of the best bands to have come around

[hellosammo]

she ruined it.

[morningdifferentials]

Such a beautiful voice ruined by her choice of arrangements. I think she tried to make it "more indie". This version is just horrible.

[rundownwires]

@morningdifferentials Maybe she just tried to make it more her?

[morningdifferentials]

@rundownwires Neh, not at all. Her music is beautifully made pop, not this stuff. This cover sounds like they all learned the lyrics and chords a couple of minutes before the presentation. And what about that tempo change?

[jazlover02]

i think she changed it a little on purpose. No one doing a cover would accidently change up the words. she does it in every video where they cover this song. no, she should have stuck to the original lyrics, but its not a huge deal...calm yourselves.

[Twinkymiss]

@pichurri27

What kind of woman do you like...tell me please?!

[pichurri27]

She looks and sound stupid

[SERRAMAG]

@pichurri27 a JBieber, Lady GaGa fan, sure.

[Fatpandas2014]

she is very attractive!

[asoh123]

Someone tell me what is that she playing with......I think I need that so my mommy can play with her lubbaby....so we all can sleep peacefully....:) Seriously whats that....

[imitione]

@asoh123 omnichord

[AudySarah1]

where can i find earrings like hers in indonesia?

[DieHardDuque]

Simply amazing.

[jamjamday]

I really don't think her changing the lyrics is something to complain about on youtube. She has an amazing voice, and she's probably better than most of you haters out there, so just chill.

[MaidinRealta]

the snow turned into strawberries? I thought it was red as strawberries? nvm

[jennay246]

people, maybe she changed the lyrics to fit the beat she was going for or something, it still sounds beautiful <3

[strawberrymatador]

" i heard winter white hymnal"..haha she's so cute!

[bobboberan]

that was absolutely terrible you got the tune , melody , and just everything wrong !inotherwards what a frightening attempt at putting your own personality into something so perfect , you literally trashed the song and yourself 

[LoganBell99]

wow that was really pretty! you are an amazing singer, never forget it! Love, Logan Bell :p

[superfrog2980]

kids under 3 years should not be allowed to comment

[mugwamp4]

omg ,,she's fucking gorgeous ...she;s way off the mark trying to pull this song off..but maybe FF could sign her up as a backing singer,,,would be an extra reason to go and see them,,,,,,shhhEEEEEEEZ.

[afglazer]

this is shitty ass shit

[JeremyRobak]

If she wasn't so pretty, I would be kind of pissed off that she got the lyrics and the name of the song wrong.

[thejerk1126]

I want someone to run up and slap the snot out of her at about .2 seconds

[JJdorchguitar]

This is a really bad cover :p

[Oneill240Si]

Wtf are they playing?

[dalooloo28]

With Newtown Radio Swan 7

they make the same cover, except there it's A LOT more natural

and you can see what they were aiming at with the second half :)

i can't post the url, but look it up and you will find it on youtube

[dalooloo28]

They make the same cover with

Newtown Radio

Swan 7

there it's more natural

i really like that one (not the Billboard one, the Newtown Radio one)

and you can see what they were aiming at with the second half

Look it up on youtube cuz I'm not allowed to post the url

[sensenstein]

@rwmagbag, yes and that is the point of a cover song; however, I would expect the lyrics to remain the same as the original.

[AudySarah1]

what is the instrument she plays here???

[henleyrocker]

@AudySarah1 It's called and Omnichord :)

[AudySarah1]

@henleyrocker ooh!thank you! :)

[vickylovesgreenday]

they really shouldnt have covered this. no me gusta

[Silvanaska]

Does somebody knov where can i download them ?? i love their songs and this song ,too.

[JeffHuggins38]

I feel like she didn't understand what the song was about... Lyrically it's not very a happy song but she sings it as if it was.

[Elleira92]

doesn't really suit oh land...

[miniFriis]

it started out really good...but from around 2:00 it was just like all over the place. s:

[MEGAINDIEROCK]

To all those comments about the wrong lyrics & sound tempo, ever think it was deliberately done.

[hanthewoman8]

What is the instrument she is using? I can't believe she didn't get the lyrics right...

[twink0073]

How can you cover a song without knowing the lyrics?! AAAAHHHH!

[twink0073]

How can you cover a song without knowing the lyrics?! AAAAHHHH!

[nickfromCO]

nope...not feeling it

[MinniSota4]

wow. so horrible. these people make money?

[MinniSota4]

wow. so horrible. these people make money?

[KyrielleBlue]

Way to ruin a great song. Ugh.

[xXfalken16Xx]

nah i don't dig it

[JoelsTunes]

too pretentious

[EzraZarazua]

different version but I like it!

[lovesthegaga]

i love oh land so much, but not the version of this song.

[hitman212121]

I respect her love of the song but why the need to cover it in this fashion? If she loves the song why did she want to change it so much in term of tempo and not having backing singers to harmonisde it and make it a "round" like it was intended to be? She took out what made it special. Her voice is great, it's her other decisions i have a problem with

[lekristajojo]

Rhythm, drums, singing was out and all over the place near the end of the song. Could have been better if she sped up and caught up with the drums and vice versa.

Nice vocal.

[teemell19]

Her voice is very nice 1:26 to 1:40

[littlemusic4x]

what is that instrument. sounds nice but i've never seen it before.

[theratfarmer]

this is redicoris. did i just say redicoris?  yes. "billboard" used to stand for something, now....its redicoris.

[punkonthis]

Sorry, not digging it. Too uneven and she screws up the lyrics. She should learn the lyrics and practice more.

[o0Mathiesen0o]

what is she playing at?? 

[IKhantSpel]

Remember when you go to your youtube page and there wasn't an advertisement at the top of the page?

Remember when music videos were uploaded by users and not VEVO

Remember when there wasn't advertisements that never go away?

Remember you couldn't have a limit to favorites?

Remember the famous yellow subscribe button?

WE MISS THE OLD YOUTUBE!

Post this in every video and lets start a youtube riot!

Thumbs up to keep this at top of the page

[loganenorris]

This is a terrible cover...i'll stick with the way it was written

[ilovemycloudpony]

no one can sing this song as good as fleet foxes

[distantking]

<3 <3 <3 pure voice....

[sangReality]

you'd think billboard would spring for a decent compressor for her voice... mzrbl

[lukep96]

take a look at m profile comments!

[tomatosoupmusic1]

Marry me lady. please?

[sensenstein]

Its pretty good its just too bad some of the lyrics are wrong. Its actually "...scarves of red TIED round their throats" which isn't a big deal, but "...fall and turn the white snow RED AS STRAWBERRIES IN summer time" is a bit more important. The lyrics she sings kinda don't make sense. They also throw the meter off. Whatever, I'm just a nerd.

[rwmagbag]

@sensenstein, she's just making her own version of it.

[henleyrocker]

@sensenstein Lol x]

[superfrog2980]

@sensenstein wow ur so smart, tell us more

[leoniddead]

@sensenstein hhaaha.. turn the white snow into strawberries in the summertime.. :D I think it's kinda sweet what she sings

[scarletcutt]

@leoniddead yea! I actually like the idea of turning white snow into strawberries! :D

[DKNY1994]

@sensenstein It's annoying!

[MissDreamzer]
