When I saw skegss in Leeds last year I asked Jono why they haven't done a Like a Virgin and he just replied with "were too shit for live radio" aha didn't expect it to be this great after he said that
Considering I grew up in the 80's as a teenager & watched as the Pixies took the world over with their incredible music? You guys killed this cover!!! You should be very proud, as you kept it in the taste of the Pixies but made it completely your very own version!! Cheers from Pennsylvania!
The velvet underground intro was fucking awesome! Great cover and as someone whose adored the pixies since i was a kid and doesnt take covering them lightly i can say you guys managed to hold a candle.
I never heard of Skeggs and Pixies are my favorite band so I was skeptical. This is dope! One of the best Pixies covers I’ve ever heard. So glad I found these guys.
seeing comments from people who’ve never heard skegss before, make me so happy. now y’all can enjoy them with us! I’m American, tryna get more of my fellow Americans on these guys. God bless Australia. 🇺🇸 🇦🇺
Met Ben on Friday night in London after there gig at the dome. What a decent bloke ! Wish they had more exposure over here in England they are awesome !!
You can listen to Skegss 'Here Comes Your Man' on Spotify spoti.fi/2UpMDcU and Apple Music apple.co/2NMJ7Y4
I love your video!can i post your video on BiliBili?not for business use,and i will link your youtube adress on that INFO
what about Lou Reed s "I'm waiting for my man" ? where do I listen ?
What a beat
lovely little Velvet Underground nod at the start!
They need to cover that whole song right now , benny does a great luo Reed
Little Lou homage never hurt anyone
Did ben and liam know who it was?
Its perfect because Pixies were hugely inspired by the Velvet Underground as well. The lyrics even sound like something Lou Reed would write.
love that
When you smirk while playing, you know what your playing sounds good and you’re really feeling it
Sometimes it just happens because of how you hit a note and hold it
Heroin does that too.
Sometimes when you f up and get away with it
Never heard of Skeggs but this was awesome and makes me want to hear more of them
I agree
Skegss
they are cool
they are truly awesome
Yeah this won me over too
God bless Australia
Cole Kornele 🙏🏻
Australia’s having a music revival. Amyl and the sniffers are one of my fave groups right now
You should check out Neighborhood void
For real. Australia has always produced so many great bands.
God bless the pixies
Man, those drums sound nice and thick. Whoever does the mixing on these is awesome!
sthenx0r thicc*
Simon Krelle too funny
Yeah and you can hear the bass properly as well
The mixing is always great.
It's a well-tuned drum kit

Lmao
"like a virgin"
Like a Virgin?
@Chimes Funkster I know, but how does it relate to the skeggs?
I saw them in Leeds this year!!!!
Such a fun Like A Version. Been waiting for so long for a decent Pixies one.
so long so longggg
Nathan Wilson lolz
I personally loved how Milky Chance did their cover on Where Is My Mind.
So great hearing this song again! and the Velvet Underground nod too. Thank you! Excellent work there Skegss!

To the person who did the sound mixing for this..
You are awesome!

Milky Chance does a great cover of Where is My Mind.
Finally a rock band at Like A Version... It had been ages since the last one
agreed dude
just a pity violent sohos like a version is not great
There's been a few
They hired Phil Selway
royal blood
The Velvet Underground reference at the top was a nice touch
i clicked so fast when i read the title
Stopped yet?
Not many could do The Pixies justice like this. Bravo 👏
man, u have no idea how long i waited for this
FP Pereira me too
Holy shit it took me two days to get the joke
Chris Griffin grew up and became a killer bassist.
Mean
Egrin chris griffin actually grew up to be tones and i
Lol I love this band but that’s just funny
I guess the guitarist and bassist had enough hair for the whole band...
Hahaha Zinga!
PRetty sure it's illegal for drummers to have hair.
one of them had to look like black francis
@@mikeprice25 What about hockey dad!?
@@mikeprice25 Except for pearl Jam
This actually sounds like it could be an original skegss song from like 50 push ups for a dollar
Well they better play this at there up coming aussie shows
Maxi Hilli 17 I’m seeing them in Toronto, CA and I’m hype as fuck if they do cover it live
Feel it in my bones
saw them at vanfest a couple of days ago, can confirm it was in their set list
@@joshualexander legend
How great was it when they actually did, dude surfing the crowd on an actual surf board and shit
The main competition to Triple J’s like a version is Buff Correll
Oh man... the feels of hearing this in such a fresh sound. Great job!
Drums, guitars, vocals: perfect. A brilliant cover.
Love it downloaded it checking out their band now wow like a verison is a great platform on RUclips for artists.
soooo good!!!! Everything that Skegss release is actually faultless. Plus The Velevet Underground and The Pixies are the greatest of all time :) :)
This makes me smile still so much. Perfect cover xx Thankyou for doing this x
One of my favourite ever songs and this is now my favourite version 😊. x
The first ten seconds I was like: the tittle must be wrong, this is the Velvet Underground, not the Pixies. It was a nice detail. Very cool.
Haha me too
seeing comments from people who’ve never heard skegss before, make me so happy. now y’all can enjoy them with us! I’m American, tryna get more of my fellow Americans on these guys. God bless Australia. 🇺🇸 🇦🇺
Great song choice, great cover! I'm glad I found this band a few months ago. Great vibes 🤙
Nick Nick if you like them, give ‘hockey dad’ a listen too
@@OhhHoola I love Hockey Dad!
Just when I thought that kind of a sound would disappear forever. Well done gentlemen!
I absolutely love this version, bang on, from start to finish. Fantastic job guy's.

No one else has noticed yet? He even took the tuning machine out.
Killer! I knew they’d cover Pixies
Great cover, one day the Pixies will get the credit they're due! Seriously why they're not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame I don't know.
My prayers have been answered I have waited so long

So nice of Black Francis to fill in on the drums
My friend showed me a vid of this from the other night in Brisbane... ahhhhhhhh!
That guitar tone 🤌
they did such a good job
is it even legal to be this good????? i can't deal with skegss honestly
They are so talented and even better live
Skeggs are a mood
Bassist is missing his g string lmao
very punk rock of him
His names toby two strings because originally only played with 2 strings and he’s moved up to 3
even removed the tuner
