Such a fun cover. Hope you enjoy...though as you'll notice, a word is missing at the end of each phrase during the verses...Postal Service fans know what i'm talking about! Plus, i've just recently realized i've screwed up the lyrics a tad. Please forgive me!
Jammed out to this as a 17 year old kid, still jamming to it at 30
Same. Time flies.
As I live and breathe.
This and the girl and her brother who covered Misfits Saturday Night a long time ago... crazy how long these have been in my life.
heard this when i was 30 and now im 44! time fliessss
Who's still watching during quarantine 2020 ?
This guy is!
sup
I remember when I found this cover. I was a kid. I'm 19 now and still loving it. U guys are the shit
Been listening to this cover for years. Still the best.
Still love this cover seven years on!
I love how the violinists just pops in during this intro.
God, I love this song, and this is the best cover of it I've seen.
I will never not tired of to look and to listen this video
Why doesn't this have a mil+ views? It is the best cover of this song out there!
I think this is the best cover of Such Great Heights I've ever heard. And believe me, I've heard too many. Absolutely fantastic.
this was absolutely AMAZING!! Holy crap. I've never heard a better version!
13 years ago, i found this video. i still come back to it from time to time. THANK YOU SINCERELY for this AWESOME COVER!!!
Wow! You capture the feeling of the slow version with the energy of the original. Amazing!
That was seriously amazing; this is one of the best covers of any song I've seen on RUclips. Just, wow. Thanks for making it!
Timeless performance. Best cover and performance of this song for more than a decade!
I love how upbeat this cover is, and the violin is such a nice complement to the guitar :)
the way that violin was played was completely sweet. It all sounded so nice together... that was awesome.
Har it really soon been 4 yrs?
I keep comming back to this!
Probably my all time favourite on youtube!
Words can't describe how much I love it!
i love how violinman is just chilling doing his thing on the violin. Excellent rendition of the song.
you guys blew me awayyyyyy.
I thought, since The Postal Service is pretty much synthetics, that people who cover it with instruments would take away the quality and how special and unique the song is but you guys did a great job, you all put it into a whole different level, it's different but amazing.
You know what, I think this is my favourite version I've heard of this song! Well done, great talent.
this ranks as one of my favorite covers of all time!
best cover ever!! not only can u guys play and sing but u can tell you love this song which makes all the difference!!
keep up the great work! :D
Good job! Honestly, I almost clicked it away in the beginning... But it sounds so great when the violin started playing. That fits perfectly, one of the best covers of this song!
after watching this over and over for almost 2 years, it just doesnt get old, it is the most amazing thing I've listened on youtube. :]
I love the addition of the violin. Just amazing.
I still love this video 3 years later xx
this is love at first sight.. to much passion... to much energy... pureness and feeling is what I see... you two combined are heaven ^^
For me music is not only about technical quality and "soul", but also about originality and joy. On these last two this cover excels. It´s good, fresh and funny. Thanks for this.
Same here. I've been watching this over and over. Such a friggin sweet cover.
this is really good. I love the violin part in this version, especially during the chorus. Great Job!
this is so freakin beautiful.
you guys are an amazing duo.
if you guys don't get an album soon, then tons of people who don't own youtube accounts will be missing out.
Honestly, one of the best cover i'v ever seen on youtube
...congratz guys it's original and so amazing!
This is by far the most brilliant cover EVER. Me and my sister have allready learned you guys parts....BRILLIANT!
Signs you have a fantastic RUclips video: The Likes out number the Dislikes 43 to 1, and over 3 years later you're still getting comments on a weekly basis. Super Awesome job. Love it. Makes me smile every time.
December 15 2018, still makes me smile. 👍
RUclips has changed a lot over the years, I’m glad I still have this saved in a playlist.
See you again soon.
i just can't get enough of this version!!!
I love how its just guitar at the start, and it remains to look like its going to be that all the way through, then the violin pops on. Fantastic.
It gets better and better everytime I hear it!
It's really the most perfect one I've heard so far.
Hahah I love how the violinist just smoothly slides in with a smile as soon as his role begins. Way cute rendition, fun to listen to when both guitar and violin interacts.
I'm not going to lie. My first impression was "oh god this is going to be terrible." because of the intro. But once you added harmonics to the guitar, and the violin came in... you proved me wrong, greatly.
AMAZING cover, man. Great job.
i love how the violinist just pops in on the screen out of nowwhere.
beautiful.
I swear the more often I hear this the more I like it more than the original. Good stuff blokes!
BEST cover of this song anywhere. awesome
this is probably the coolest video on youtube. it's so happy. it epitomizes what youtube should be. great work.
This was uploaded on my birthday, and surprisingly it's the best SGH cover all around, always cheers me up in the worste moments. Thanks Alain, really.

I just love talented people!
the violinist came out of nowhere.. i didnt expect a cover as good as this so i feel like i have to comment
When I got accepted into nursing school I turned off my phone, opened a beer, and played this loudly.
I don't understand where people get the idea that Iron & Wine did the original version of this song. It was the Postal Service, look up the official music video of it on RUclips. It debuted on the CD Give Up in 2003. Here is a quote from Wikipedia... "The album's most well-known single was "Such Great Heights", which was featured in advertisements for UPS and Kaiser Permanente. The song was later covered by Ben Folds, Brack Cantrell, and Iron and Wine."
I love the violin addition!! it sounds awesome! great job guys!! :)
absolutely amazing
