Damn, it must be weird reacting to and hearing a completely different interpretation of a song you wrote. Prefer the original though. Would of been more interesting hearing a version of Keep Your Hands Off Of My Woman! 🤣

@LetsChillPage 6 месяцев назад

Hello from South France *Kustin,* Two quick things in passing: The first, a guy who reacts to songs on his YT channel has a voice tone very similar to yours (Luke Sutcliffe). Well, he has a bit of a tendency to overplay his reactions, but when he normally deigns to speak, it's very similar. The second (I don't know if you already knew this) *Jack Conte* the second sinthé (the bearded one) is an American musician and co-founder and CEO of Patreon. He's one half of the band *Pomplamoose,* along with his wife *Nataly Dawn* (this band plays many French songs' covers), co-leader of the band *Scary Pockets,* and leader of *the band Magaziine.* Peace, folks. 😋☮

@Nopaants 4 месяца назад

Thanks for bringing up my pet peeve. First, let me get this out of the way. Due to the new digital karaoke age, there should be a distinct difference between recording karaoke and actually performing a cover. Unless the musician is professionally (making money) performing a song, it should not be considered a cover. It should be should be considered karaoke. As for what you were saying about adding their own version, that is the definition of a cover song. If the song is performed exactly as the original, that is called a tribute. Unfortunately it all gets clumped under a cover.

Overdrive is pretty much the opposite of what you think. It's to drop the revs for more comfortable high speed cruising. Never mind. The lyric still works. Hope your Dad kept the MG.

@EoinJones 7 месяцев назад

Yeah - what he described was turbo.

@mattthomas6734 6 месяцев назад

Yep, I had an MG with the switch. 4th gear is 1:1, where the wheel revs match the engine revs. Gears 1 to 3 are geared down so the wheels turn slower than the engine. Overdrive was the precursor to 5th gear, and basically a whole other gearbox to gear UP so the wheels spin faster than the engine. Less power but faster to speed. @mowogfpv7582 explanation fine, but couldn’t resist the opportunity to comment. I’m a musical idiot (lacking both education and talent) so hoping to absorb a little by osmosis in a comforting bath in the darkness.

I think some of the melody is a bit obscured sometimes in this cover but they still did great and they are super tight.

@MashaT22 7 месяцев назад

I agree. I’ve heard much better covers. It has nothing to do with the fact that it’s not my thing. It’s trying too hard to do its own thing and it’s not working. The original song is simple and this is way too overdone and makes it look like they’re trying too hard to be impressive. The musicians and singer are great, but the arrangement and stylistic decisions are really not appropriate or appealing for this song. The arrangement reminds me of songs from the broadway show Rent. I also don’t like the lyric changes. I commend them for trying something different for an amazing song, but you really have to bring it AND choose a suitable song that works for poshing it up if you’re going to drastically depart from a simple and incredible classic hit as much as this does.

Also, not that it really matters but "overdrive" in that context is referring to the gear ratio in the transmission. In lower gears like 1st, the power gear is smaller than the drive gear, and as you shift you work your way up to a 1:1 ratio. Overdrive, if your car has it, is when you go beyond 1:1 ratio.

@mirador1987 7 месяцев назад

I'm torn. On the one hand they're obviously incredible musicians doing a really complex and talented cover of this song. On the other hand the beauty of this song was always the simplicity. It hits the chords you expect. It hits the high notes you expect. It's got the predictable classic guitar solo you expect. (I say all this with genuine appreciation that it does that). When you take away some of those things that arguably make the song what it was (is?) then I'm not sure it hits the same. That said, Scary Pockets are awesome and definitely go check out other stuff they've done, also check out 'Stories' - comes from the same wider pool of people (that effectively all stem from Pomplamoose and Jack Conte, lets be honest) but focuses more on acoustic versions of songs, and is *chefs kiss*.

Overdrive, for what it's worth, is like having an additional (higher) gear in the transmission. Turn it on and the engine will run a bit slower for the same road speed. In an MGB, it probably actually lowers the top speed, but it makes the engine less busy and perhaps a bit more economical.

It’s really interesting how the way that the singer in the scary pockets version does two things (as far as I have gotten in the song) that I also do that were identified as being different from the original: “on" overdrive as opposed to “in," and the run present in the “touching youuu-u-u-u” pre chorus bit.

On old land rovers 'overdrive' was an extra half a gear. It turned 4 gears into 8 (plus with the low ratio it turned 8 gears into 16!) Not sure if that goes for the MG also.

Ahh I'm so glad you reacted to this! No disrespect to Justin or the scary pockets guys, but I'd love to hear Brooke sing the original arrangement with the guitar solos and all the rest of it. Do I need to sacrifice a goat to the rock gods to make that happen...or whatever the vegan equivalent is...maybe a large butternut squash? ❤

I think every other cover I've heard has been better than this

She maybe can sing but I would hope to never hear this version ever again! The Original maybe a simpler arrangement etc, but that works far better as this is just a cluttered cacophony to me...

oh what a treat! a day with a justin hawkins video is never a bad day. and then those beloved musicians covering his ode to love! what can still go wrong on an otherwise utterly dreary day?

I loved enjoying this song when you guys first released it. I loved enjoying the cover when Scary Pockets put it together. I loved watching you enjoy Scary Pockets' brilliant cover of your brilliant song.
