    I never say this, but I will make an acceptation. This song is amazing and for a cover to make me feel as though I'm listening to the song for the first time all over again shows how talented you are. By the way, the little glockenspiel is awesome.

    Ok great cover, but above all I have to say how amazingly refreshing is to see a band in youtube with their videos sounding like this. I'm so tired of how overproduced youtube bands tend to sound on their videos. As muddy (and at times lofi) as this sounds it gave me a sense o livelliness that I don't see very often in youtubeland. And judging by your mike placement (I don't see any close miking being done) I'm guessing you wanted it that way. Great choice! I adored the sound of this video!

      Thanks for those kind words - we wanted to capture things more how they sound live in a room instead of trying to make it sound like a record. It means a ton to hear that it came across!

      Couldn't agree more it was amazing how you could pick out every instrument no matter what point in the song! I've listened to you guys for maybe 15 mins now and I'm going to be introducing this band to everyone I know.

    This entire performance is tremendous, but WOW when the pace of the guitar picks up just before the 3 minute mark you guys just take it to a whole different level. Love this.

    Amazing cover. It is a very rare occasion when a cover can even compare to the original. Hauntingly Beautiful - another rare feet to accomplish in any song, let alone a cover.
