  • Can I just say Lexx that I adore your cover - I don't normally comment on videos like this, but I just came from the Scrubs finale and I feel like your version really relates the emotions in that episode to people our age.

    I think I may propose to my girlfriend by singing this to her, anyway :)

    Thanks for a beautiful version of a beautiful song x

  • Lovely

  • I've never heard this song before, so I went to listen to the two other versions of it, and HOLY CRAP YOURS IS WAAAY BETTER THAN THE OTHERS. The other versions (the original and the peter gabriel version) are just too ... depressing. But the lyrics aren't that sad. You give it this upbeat undertone to it. It's happy.

  • I can't stop listening to this, it's beautiful

  • No download link? D: D: D:

  • I only just seen this :s But dear lex, this is bloody lovely. I can only come to the gathering for a little bit m'dear. But that little bit will be the best little bit in the world i promise x

  • Cracking cover, really was, but now im going to be 'that guy', The Book of Love is my The Magnetic Fields, Peter Gabriel just covered it

  • @p1e2t3e4r5j6o7n8e9s yep, which is why I called it a 'cover cover'. nobody reads the titles or descriptions these days, gosh darn it, YouTube's gone to the dogs, back in my day Pluto was a planet!

  • @tyrannosauruslexxx yep, my bad, sorry sorry. Did anyone ever read the descriptions?

  • @p1e2t3e4r5j6o7n8e9s haha, probably not :)

  • @tyrannosauruslexxx I always read the descriptions in full. My time isn't valuable.

  • @tyrannosauruslexxx Though you out to give Magnetic Fields a little credit beyond the courtesy word "cover"

  • @thilosavage I'm a doing a cover of Peter Gabriel's interpretation of the song. that's what this is entirely based on. so ... no.

  • Oh, Lex, every bone in my body hopes you likes Scrubs because honestly, this cover makes me just as emotional as that short montage at the end of the series. I just want to steal even 1-10th of your voice, place it in a jar and when I'm about to fall asleep, open up the jar and peacefully listen. MY EMOTIONS ARE EVERYWHERE.
