Hard to imagine this was recorded outside on a street corner with traffic going by. Kudos to the band and the recording engineer/sound editor. Amazing. Too many YT music videos are of great musicians but terrible sound quality in live club or stage performances, so it is amazing this sounds so good. This is a real treat. What fun.
That's how you do it! Recording/performing, all the same thing. Rehearsed until it's done, probably got this in one take! Liked & Subscribed, you guys are amazing.
Wow! That singer reminds me a lot of the first time I remember seeing Eddie Vedder - holy shit I just got some serious goosebumps. These guys are living in the music like no one I've seen.
Well I"m impressed. As someone with a rather deep voice I was rather surprised that the same lad who began the chorus with a low "Take on ..." was the same person who could finish with that falsetto at the end of the chorus. Very entertaining. Thanks for sharing all your musical talents! - Reg
Love this. It reminds me of Punch Brothers' take on the Cars' "Just What I Needed" and "Poor Places" by Wilco. Great bluegrass instrumentation take on pop/rock songs.
Fantastic arrangement. I love the mandolin (?) playing the keyboard part and the vocalist nailed a really tough song to sing. His facial controtions reminded me of John Lennon hitting the high notes when singing "This Boy" on The Ed Sullivan show.
Any man who can nail that high note even for a couple of seconds deserves a like.
1 mic, 1 shot. These guys killed it!!! No auto tune, no engineering. Pure talent. I am impressed.
I gotta say, if I see you guys performing this on the streets, I will gladly throw my entire wallet into any sort of hat that you guys have.
Same!
This
Casper Willekens A-ha...good job!
BeefyLightnin me too
agreed
“I messed it up” …no you sure did not this is fantastic 👏👏
Accoustic but with the vibe from the original! Most covers of Take on me are like "sad versions". Your cover is AMAZING!!!!
The "in a day or two" expression thou... It's like he's about to faint. LOL
yep
If you look closely, he's looking up while singing that line, probably praying not to faint
Lmao he looks like he's gonna pass out lol. He's such a cutie.
"or twoooo" his spirit left momentarily
That high note though. +1
I love your choice of instruments.
I can never understand how anyone can hit those two high notes.
Very entertaining. Thanks ever so much.

How to feel good on a Saturday night! Never gets old!

Damn, you guys killed it. Lot of covers lose the upbeat energy of the original, but you guys pull it off and then some. Kudos.
what in the world did i stumble onto?? im really blown away by the talent here!
After watching all of the videos on RUclips I can now say this is the best.
His voice is SO good! Honestly hit every single note perfectly!
I know, took me 7 years to get here.😊 i will enjoy my stay. TY.
This. Is. Magnificent. And I say this as someone who was already an adult when the original came out.
This is one of the most Iconic songs from the 1980's & you guys hit a Grand Slam with this version. Well Done!!
As a HUGE fan of A-ha, I can say that this is probably one of the BEST covers of this song I have ever had the privilege of hearing! Thank you!
Cantan hermoso
Maravilloso
You guys are living my dream …
Wow, beste Cover aller Zeiten 😊
Jeden Tag höre ich euer Cover vor dem einschlafen ❤
Ich danke euch für diesen tollen Sound 😊
Best cover of this song I've heard
have you heard the NSP cover?
def one of the very best!
How could anyone NOT like this??? A group of real musicians jamming on a corner, knocking it out of the park. I thought it was great!
Genios,!!!que admiración me dio verlos!!!
You can't tell those guys nothing they got the song nailed. Awesome cover🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱🐱
Have you guys noticed that the grey car behind the bassist at 2:38 actually lowered their window to hear these guys? I'd do the same
How many times did you watch the video before you spotted this? xD
Egh, about like, 10 or 20 times lol.
Great performance, looks like you're having fun! That singer-guitarist is awesome too!
it's an amzing a ha cover by amazing talented young men
Harmony is explosive - Bravo! ❤
This is absolutely amazing! Love your spin on this 80's classic. You gentlemen are incredible
This was so pure, so amazing can't even find the words to say how much I loved it. Really talented guys. Awesome.
So glad I happened upon this! Great job!
Such a hard song to cover especially in the vocal department! Incredible!
really good backup 'take on me' too!
I have always imagined this song in a bluegrass style. You just made a 64 year old banjo player very happy.
Is very good! I love it!!!!!!!!
that was incredible . harmonies were tight! keep doing what your doing
There’s a million covers of this song on you tube and I keep coming back to this one. Great job.
That's how you do it! Recording/performing, all the same thing. Rehearsed until it's done, probably got this in one take! Liked & Subscribed, you guys are amazing.
Absolutely the coolest cover ever. Thank you. And props to guitarist/vocalist for totally nailing that E6 in the chorus, every time.
Wow! That singer reminds me a lot of the first time I remember seeing Eddie Vedder - holy shit I just got some serious goosebumps. These guys are living in the music like no one I've seen.
Dude this deserves more recognition!
Thumbs up and a high five to you guys. This is awesome.
i love it! And I came of age when this song came out. I have to say I particularly enjoyed watching the bass player.
Simply...P-E-R-F-E-C-T !! Congrats!
Just wow. Great job fellas, hope you are all still making music.
Love this cover version and it seems to breathe new life into a old classic.
We need more people like these guys and MOMS. :')
Fabulous , will last for eternity. You are a special group of guys that I
hope are still playing together.
Gentleman,this is amazing 🤩
This is what music is about - thanks loved it.
I really enjoyed this cover. After listening to it a dozen times, today I noticed the bass player is crushing it! Well done guys!
This music sparks joy.
Amazing, amazing, amazing.. God Bless you guys..
This is awesome! Cant wait to see you guys May 30th!!!
In a day or... D'OOOOHHHHH ❤ You guys rock: live, 1 take, punchy, delightful, keep it up!
Wow! Maravilhosos!
Xoxo de Manaus - Amazonas - Brasil!!
I LOVE THIS VERSION!
Gotta love street busking. Kudos guys.
Awesome cover, very impressive!
Great! Love it
The best live session I have seen so far. You remind me of those guys on the Titanic. The last song of my life.
Well I"m impressed. As someone with a rather deep voice I was rather surprised that the same lad who began the chorus with a low "Take on ..." was the same person who could finish with that falsetto at the end of the chorus.
Very entertaining. Thanks for sharing all your musical talents!

Amazing arrangement. Well done!
instant fan. blown away. thank u sooo much. i almost forgot people could create anything good in the world.
Amazing performance!!
Fantastic arrangement. I love the mandolin (?) playing the keyboard part and the vocalist nailed a really tough song to sing. His facial controtions reminded me of John Lennon hitting the high notes when singing "This Boy" on The Ed Sullivan show.
Oh man this is crazy. I love it.
damn nice cover....always love your guys twists on familiar tunes! Great job as always :)
Acoustic, classic and folk instruments. So nice and sweet cover guys.
