Sometimes we love Flight of the Conchords so much, we decided to do a cover of them. This is a video of us covering Jenny at our school talent show back in November of 2007.
This is my favorite cover of this song. Great job. I'm embarrassed for anyone who expended any time or effort to say something negative about a school talent show. performance.
Oh, no! I love that best of all! Ah well, there are some other things that are new which are great too, so... it's still an incredibly good version, considering the age of the performers.
i’m gonna be honest, I’ve been back to this video a few times in the past few years and I’m starting to think it’s actually better than the original just on the basis of how good the audience is how much they’re genuinely enjoying it and laughing
My favorite is the FotC live with Jermaine in the blue tshirt and Brett in the black hoodie (you know the one), but this is definitely a close second haha. I love how they add their own flair and make it completely their own here! Jenna's delivery of "it was daytime..." is so good LOL
So, my old friend, "Jenna," introduced me to this song many years ago. Additionally, my name is "Matt!" XD Now, here I find this video as a suggested video from RU-vid, with "Matt" and "Jenna" performing "Jenny," from "The Flight Of The Concords!!!" Such a great performance, you two! :D ~Matt
Really, really good cover. I don't understand some of the criticism from a handful of people in the comments. It's like they wanted to hear the original and not a cover, why didn't they just go and watch the original? The whole point of a cover is that it doesn't have to be exactly like the original, you can put your own spin on it. You BOTH did a great job and the added lyrics were good too.
i think bret n jamaine were talking about you guys when they mentioned "like of the concords" - a cover band that does they're songs in a slightly more popular way.... very good !
Thank you.....so much. I have been looking for a good version of this to do as a male/female duet. Thank you thank you thank you!!!! Americanized? Yes. But perfectly and in thee most amazing way possible. You guys rock!!!!
It is not necessarily the performer's fault about proper credit in a school talent show. They are not in charge of the program, and I have seen, multiple times, errors in the program, because someone wrote down the wrong thing. We mentioned it was a cover in the description of the video anyway, so FotC has been given they're credit.
well done mate! I cant only imagine the fatigue, lactic acid build up and the disorientation of having to sing at the same time! you sir are awesome! Plus the chord sequence is not what i would call easy
Both of you are really great and talented, especially the lady. You should really send this to Bret and Jemaine... Congrats for that and I hope you won as well.
