Most people don't know the song. They wouldn't have had a chance to take in the lyrics as a live for the first. All they know is it's a talent show where some guys are pretending to be a conjoined twin.. It 100% sound like a comedy without prior perspective. I mean.. the main points they laughed at are basic sibling fight aspects, but with the added humor they are attached. "I wanna go ice scatting! " "ugh, we JUST did that!" two siblings yelling at the top of their lungs "WHY CAN'T WE JUST GET ALONG" . Have you ever seen duet with myself? It sounds like that, but, about twins. A song like this is EASILY misinterpreted when the haunting melody of the original voices can't be copied over to live.
@@tokki3357 true, it didnt have to be perfect it was a talent show and you could tell they really wanted to do it. I wish the audience wouldnt laugh at the sad parts :(
They said they made a song by Evelyn Evelyn, then changed the lyrics from "should I marry him" to "should I marry her" so it's gay anyway. 👏👏👏 it was an awesome cover though.
If you you guys didn’t read the description you need to know this is a cover of Evelyn Evelyn by the two conjoined twins Evelyn and Evelyn if you like these guys and have never listen to Evelyn Evelyn you have to now
@@katieh7927 According to the album's principal conceit, Lyn and Eva Neville are real people, with a real Twitter account, born in 1985 and sharing "three legs, two arms, two hearts, three lungs and a single liver".
Guys, the audience is not laughing at the sad parts. I mean, if you look at 5:20 - 5:26 it's obviously this they are finding funny. The aspect of twins arguing and then the comedic 'sorry Jonathan.', it's going to be funny if you don't know the song. And I can guarantee that 98% of the crowd has never heard the actual thing considering it's in 2010 where it hadn't completely blown up. And it's probably in a High School Talent Show... So, the lyrics are never going to be comprehensible the first time you hear the song. The audience isn't going to take it seriously, they are probably known by a lot of people and most likely known for joking around and doing dumb crap. The audience isn't being shitbags for no reason, they just might not understand the song at first.
Why are so many people saying that its a copy? They did a cover of the song so yeah its the same thing but they put their own spin on it so it within fair use and all.
CAN WE TALK ABOUT HOW UNBELIEVABLY HARD LEARNING HOW TO PLAY THAT WAS???!!!! THINK ABOUT IT , ONE HAD TO DO THE RIGHT HAND AND THE OTHER HAD TO DO THE LEFT.
The reason the audiences was laughing was probably because they were uncomfortable and with the subject matter, so yeah it was most likely nervous laughter
no, giles, se ríen porque hacen partes graciosas. en el vídeo que lo cantan Jason y Amanda también se ríe la audiencia porque a veces pretenden que se rían. solo buscáis criticar para sentiros superiores 🤦🏻♀️
That smack was hilarious, their cover was pretty good they made the arguing more realistic and that slap helped add comedy. They actually gave the audience a reason to laugh.
So I'm gonna guess that Evelyn is thier names put together and that they are twins or a group of twins if I'm including John and Nathan or johnathin So um guessing they are all twins the girls and then the boys are thier own twins and the girls thier own as well

m e l a n c h o l y i hate it two
This is the point of Evelyn Evelyn the album, they're circus beast. Peoples laught at them, because they don't know.
Teenagers are scary
The kid on the right (the pair's left) has a fantastic voice.
That was quite fun to watch.
Caillin McKay
I know
His voice was sooo good!!!!
The with the White tie right?
The one of the left has such good piano skills!!!!!
I hate how they all kept on laughing I just wanna - they are being so disrespectful
At the beginning you could hear someone squeal at the mention of Evelyn Evelyn.
I SENSE FANGIRLS!
Meghan the average person That would be me xD
the audience laughing ruined the whole thing smh
Yep
@@kel6505 hi kel lmao
Um... I think they laughed because the two boys purposely tried to add humour to the performance
I could hear them okay.
When your name is Evelyn, you were born in September, and you play ukelele....just listen to tragic vents of September....
I have and oh boy, that must've been weird for you when you first listened to the Tragic Events
Oop
My name is evelynn I was born in august (and the year the album was made) and I play ukulele and piano
My name is Evelyn! I was born the year the album came out, I play the ukulele and my family collects sideshow memorabilia. I’m concerned.
I hate the audience for laughing at the sad parts, it's really annoying
Same
IKR!
Jramon Acosta there laughing at the girls lol
They dont know its sad
I love how Nathan (And of Johnathan as he's also called) smacked John after they finished arguing. That was great.
This_weird_kid I AGREE ^ω^^ω^^ω^
Omg i love it the smaller boy has a wonderful voice
Why are they laughing!!!!!!!!????? 😡
So nice! The audience really detracts though.
Eritol? like eridan spinoff?
Akajjaiakaka
why the fuck is the audience laughing
SorbetSosara they don’t understand the song’s deeper lore
....Trying to watch a person who can sing and a person who can't sing at all harmonise is a lot more painful then I thought
Yeah.
I actually liked his voice it was a bit quite tho
I think it adds to the performance. Twins aren't always good at the same things. Plus his piano playing is really beautiful.
@@tokki3357 true, it didnt have to be perfect it was a talent show and you could tell they really wanted to do it. I wish the audience wouldnt laugh at the sad parts :(

I love this! But why were they laughing at the sad parts
That was so fun to watch! I bet Jason and Amanda love you guys!
Jason and Amanda are the twins, lol.
Katze Ja jason and amanda are the twins producers
Katze Ja oh, u were right. Just read the wiki article. And my heart is broken nw😢
They are the twins. Fictional twins.
Song: is fucking sad
Audience: COMEDY G O L D
Isn't it usually spelled Jonathan? Or is this meant to be a combination of John and Nathan?
Nicole Barajas it's supposed to ,yes.
Nicole Barajas yes, it is a combination of their names
Nicole Barajas
I think so
username no it was eve and Lynn
Cretis Andrew
Don’t even remember commenting this but guess 2 years ago I was wrong
If this is Johnathon Johnathon.... they change the Evelyn parts to Johnathon Johnathon?
Hara Aila yes
I wished
I love how hauntingly beautiful they sounded together
this is brilliant! *sends mad love and props to jonathan jonathan*
amanda just tweeted this!
Jason Webley just tweeted this. Awesome job, well done guys! It's clear that you put so much work into it.
What’s with the girls in the back?
Ladyredbone probably helping them get on stage and in the seat because it must be hard to move pretending to be conjoined.
Sunzie San They said they were pretending-
Sunzie San lmao 😂 it’s all good
That is so cool! I wish I had the balls to do this with my identical twin!
If you you guys didn’t read the description you need to know this is a cover of Evelyn Evelyn by the two conjoined twins Evelyn and Evelyn if you like these guys and have never listen to Evelyn Evelyn you have to now
Lazy Quackerz they aren’t actually conjoined
@@doingeverythingican9312 The actual Evelyn twins were conjoined
@@kami-nt5wh theyre fictional characters

It was in fact a high school talent show and actually quite a few in the audience were fans of Amanda and Jason.
5:18 The slap though XDDDDD
Why are so many people saying that its a copy? They did a cover of the song so yeah its the same thing but they put their own spin on it so it within fair use and all.
Wendy Schwartz yes it’s a copy that was given a thumbs up by both Amanda and Jason

Wait? what was the subject matter?
pinche audiencia que se ríe :"V no me deja estar sad V":
Xd
Verdad que sí estos putos no saben que pasó de verdad Qué triste
Se están riendo de los partes tristes
no, giles, se ríen porque hacen partes graciosas. en el vídeo que lo cantan Jason y Amanda también se ríe la audiencia porque a veces pretenden que se rían. solo buscáis criticar para sentiros superiores 🤦🏻♀️
This is very smart. The Evelyn sisters are Eve and Lyn, and the Johnathan brothers are John and Nathan!
Great job, boys! VERY nice! Love Amanda Palmer too!
the world isn't ready for this
He smacked him omg
😭
This was so great! Fun to watch!
you guys are amazing, you just made my day! i think i see evelyn evelyn cover songs and vids for the rest of the album ♥
Lefty sounds just like the original!!
This is amazing! Fantastic performance boyos!
This is kinda a copy but I like it,it sounds like Evelyn Evelyn
Water Mellon it was a tribute to EvelynEvelyn. Amanda even tweeted how much she liked it.
Actually both Amanda and Jason tweeted it.
It’s a cover
They just said it was a parody by their "friends" evelyn evelyn which means it is not made by "Jonathan Jonathan"
Because it is. What kind of...Oml I won’t be rude
Nathan's voice is amazing
Oh god I just found this and I did not know these were Evelyn Evelyn fans I'm so happy!!!
Absolutely fantastic!
That smack was hilarious, their cover was pretty good they made the arguing more realistic and that slap helped add comedy. They actually gave the audience a reason to laugh.
The kid on the left is really good and this was really good!!! Aaahh!!!!
FUCK THEYRE SO GOOD
This is great!! When both of your voices combined it was perfect and gave me chills (in a good way). Good job and what a wonderful cover!!!

Johnathans: Why are we weeping?
Audience: That's the funniest shit I've ever heard
Damn "nathan" has an amazing voice
This the the cutest thing I can't
If only the audience knew
*implodes with delight*
Oml, this was so funny! I hope two people play this song when I graduate. That would be adorable.
They are so fucking cute
Agreed
evA AnD lYN NevILle
Sappy Ass Git what
Eve and lyn Neville
remember when youtube used to be good
Sarcasm Person
HOW DARE YOU
Sarcasm Person, Unfortunately not me
I hope that was sarcasm
The boy whit the white tie is an amazing singer. The other boy is also great, but the white tie boy has truly fantastic vocals.
well done lads! amanda palmer just tweeted this a few minutes ago:)
Has anyone made sheet music for this song?
Hanni G Evelyn Evelyn la original music
When one can sing, and one... Can't 😆
sooo sooo awesome! great cover!
I LOVE THIS... I wish the names were switched in the song for your version though but I get it's impossible to make it rhyme then x)
This popped up in my recommended and I’m glad it did
Holy shit I shed a tear, what a beautiful performance, props to the singers and for the originality
the slap got burning on the crowd
Fabulous performance! Loved it!
They’re so good! I loved it, they’re so talented!
Terrific job Jonathan Jonathan :)
Saw this from Amanda, this is brilliant.
Nathan's voice fantastic
Fantastic work guys! :D
This is fantastic the audience needs to hushh
Why cat the audience just sit and listen- I don’t understand what’s funny about the song-
The song is so sad and beautiful wha-
Perfect cossplay of the genderbend of the Evelyn Evelyn sisters! (They are real)
that is fab!!
I was expecting a slap fight xD.
Awesome. I applaude you (both?)
The mic only picked up the white tie
¿Por qué se reían en las partes tristes?
No tienen respeto alguno :/
Lovely
Great job!
Awesome job guys! :D
I love Evelin, Evelin! They did a good job
Who is the ONE PERSON who keeps LAUGHING😫
Amazing !!!
Stop complaining, the musical is supposed to be comedic. It’s a dark comedy.
Omggg
Awesome!!!
Damn, when he slapped him though.
why they do this, this is sad :[
Look up "Evelyn Evelyn" and listen really carefully to the whole album. it's a story..
Cause its pretty good xD
The guy with the white tie sang way better
The other- eesh
you did an absolutely amazing job!
Evelyn Evelyn
Omg el de corbata blanca canta hermoso es mi cruch lo amo😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍
So I'm gonna guess that Evelyn is thier names put together and that they are twins or a group of twins if I'm including John and Nathan or johnathin
So um guessing they are all twins the girls and then the boys are thier own twins and the girls thier own as well
*y e s*
*p a p a*
Why are they laughing??? It’s really distracting from the masterpiece that being unfolded to us right here...
It sounds funny out of context and when you don't know the backstory, give them a break
Me already knew their names were probably john and Nathan before playing the video
