I just came here after watching an interview with Justin Hawkins, He said this is a fantastic cover version and i have to agree. Just brilliant. Thanks for sharing
Beat me to it. Incredible cover. Morgan Wallen’s cover of Jason Is bell’s song called Cover You Up is the absolute number one greatest cover song of all time. Hands down.
Brilliant, just brilliant. I love cover versions of ANY song, but to cover a Darkness song in this way, genius!!. I could easily hear this on a romcom soundtrack.
Best cover ever!! I found this 5 years ago and through of it again today wow i cant find anything new from these guys but i hope they are still making music
This is my favourite song ever. I like a bit of country but nothing like rock n roll. But this... This is a nice different. Really nice to listen to and an interesting approach. Not my kind of music, but I respect it very much. Well done.
Man. 7 years goes by fast as hell, I remember listening to this wayyy back in the day. Spent years trying to remember it and just today it popped up in my recommendations.
I think I watch this video at least once a week. This is the best cover of this song I have heard. I would love to be their neighbor. Just sit out back, drink, and listen to them sing.
Now I'm a forever lover of the original and I believed that there is no possible band to make and cover in comparison to the amazing of the original however this cover is a variety of it's own and in fact amazing in it's own way. Awesome cover!!
Je suis totalement accro à votre version... mais franchement c'est trop court!!!! On a vraiment envie que çà continue encore et encore et encore... Je suis obligée de mettre en boucle!
No idea what ya guys want from them... They did great job covering great song! It's easy to play song the exact same way! Still they gave this song second life and I like it!
Here after seeing it on Justins channel will say anyone can take a song and cover it but to make it in your own style thats what makes it awesome and this is awesome.
This is what a cover should be. I never understand people who watch song covers and get mad when they aren't exactly like the original. Just freakin watch the original! A cover like this doesn't take anything away from the original song. If you don't like the genre then fine.. But it doesn't mean it's bad. Some people have very little understanding of artistic expression. But hey I was the same way when I was 12. Maybe they'll grow up and broaden their horizons someday.
This cover was adorable. Healthy people don't compare or expect perfection and genius. These humans are creating beauty in their own unique way. Yes, it breaks my heart how mean and cruel people can be with their criticisms rather than being able to respect and appreciate all artists and self expression in general. Sickening the meanness in this world. And in reality, most people who bash others express less talent than those whom they are attacking. Sadly we live in a world full of mentally ill haters. Bummer.
I understand what your saying and agree somewhat but I just cannot enjoy this cover. The original was filled with a energetic rock and this just saps out all of the strength and makes it sound like a generic hipster acoustic song. The highlight of the original song to me and probably many others was the powerful vocals and these two people can't hold a candle to it. The lyrics, rhythm, and melody were there but the spirit of the original song itself wasn't. A better cover in my opinion would be PostmodernJukebox's. Their singer was still able to deliver on the vocals with a soulful sound to her and gave the song a more classy feel. It was a different sound but I still felt what the original song tried to make me feel when I listened to it. Again, I agree that people shouldn't hate on this too much, but in my opinion it's not that great of a cover.
Funny how opinions work. Nobody is ever "right"...Just listened to the cover from "PostmodernJukebox" and found it unenjoyable. A cover is an interpretation of the original and there are endless ways to do it. No way is right. There are on the other hand bad covers by people who either cant sing or cant play well. This band has talent. Its not a "bad" cover, you just don't care for it.
