I can't stop listening to this, or even watching it. These two girls are beyond beautiful. You can feel everything, even if you don't know what it is you're feeling. Even the smile exchanges that they share make this song that much more beautiful. There's nothing like finding new music like this, you wonder how you went your whole life before without it. To think how lost you'd feel if someone were to just take it away tomorrow!I
I grew up in Peterborough. My wife and my father both went to PCVS. I hope you girls realize that most people go their whole lives and never make anything quite so beautiful as this. Makes me proud of where I come from.
I was napping in my new apartment, very far away from my own Canadian hometown. I was woken up by my neighbor, who was blasting this Neko Case song on the other side of the wall. It's so beautiful, I had my ear pressed against the wall hoping to catch a lyric, looked her up, and found this stunning cover--I'll thank my neighbor next time when I see him. Well done, ladies.
This is one of my favorite Neko songs and these 2 performed a beautiful rendition, each with their own respective styles. What an honor that Neko posted this to her facebook!!!!
Echoing other comments here--there occasionally are times when I discover something truly remarkable and this is on my all time short list. The skillful audio production conveys perfectly the depth of your stunning voices and the gorgeous tone Kate is pulling from that uke. The video adds real character to the performance as well. I was lucky enough to listen to this the first time with good headphones. Like jmsotak, I won`t soon forget that. Thank you for posting. Please continue to do so.
I first watched this about a year ago and still visit it every once in awhile to watch because I like it so much. I wish the girl on the left could tell us what she was trying to not giggle about the entire time, I love watching you fight it the entire time. both have great voices
PCVS is more than just a school. It is a place that welcomes and celebrates the range of ways that kids bring to discovering themselves Watching my own daughter come out of this building after classes for so many years, each time reminded me to celebrate the richness that there is within our society and how fortunate we are to be able to rejoice in that diversity. Long live PCVS!
Once in a while I stumble onto something really special here. What you both and the person who recorded this have done is inspiring: you captured something so pure and honest and beautiful. It gave me goosebumps and I will never forget listening to it the first time. The video adds such depth to the performance for me. The obvious bond you have makes the audio portion all the more genuine and endearing, Thanks to the 3 of you for taking an already beautiful Neko song to a higher place for me.
I can't stop listening. I really hope you record somethings and make it so I can buy them! Also, I hope Neko has heard this! I think she would be sooo impressed!
I'm so proud to have you go to my school! and the fact that this video has 14,000 views and counting is just proof of your amazing abilities! I hope you make it big because you really deserve it.
I graduated from a high school not unlike this one in Mississauga (C.P.S.S) and I can say that attending a high school with a regional arts program has changed and enriched my life. I spent grade 9 at another school and in comparison, I wish that everyone could have gone to a school like P.C.V.S. because the passion of the students and faculty make for an amazing learning environment that carries over into other non-arts subject areas as well. GOOD LUCK! I hope you can turn this thing around.
This is absolutely amazing. I truly hope that P.C.V.S. stays open for decades to come. I've found myself coming back to this video every few hours. Janelle your voice is insane, I can't get over it! Keep it up ladies you're doing great!
You girls sing exquisite harmonies, thank you . I don't know many contemporary musicians who do that very well except maybe The Low Anthem. I hope you save your school and continue to make beautiful music.
Wow...as a big Neko fan i must say you two blew the roof off this song. Keep up the fight for PCVS...good schools that inspire students should not be forclosed on!
Every time i think of my old high school i think of how many lives it has effected over the years. The memories made by every individual over decades, its overwhelming. Let P.C.V.S remain to play-out memories to come, and cherish memories past.
Having attended PCVS, transferring there after a not so enjoyable atmosphere at another high school in grade 9, I can say the sense of school community fostered at the school was unmatched by any school I've had experience with. I am proud to call it my high school. It is also an economic necessity for the downtown. City of Peterborough has spent the last 20 years trying to rejuvenate the downtown, and when I come to visit it surely has come a long way, without the student pop. it may die slowly
This is so wonderful! Beautiful voices. I have many, many fond memories of singing in the same stairwell. Being able to attend PCVS had such a great and positive impact on my life. There is so much artistic talent of all kinds coming out of Peterborough, and PCVS fosters creativity in every way. Keep it open!
your two of the most inspirational people ive ever watched and your canadian, watch this video with pride and know everyone is hoping the best for you...
I had never heard this song before I found this video, so I looked up the original and I made it about 30 seconds through and all I could think of was how I wished I was listening to this version :P Very well done!!!
Fantastic job ladies!!! You're both so talented! As a former Crestwood student I can still say that I always admired PCVS. I hope this really help draws attention to your cause.
I have watched hundreds of things on RUclips and this is my first ever comment on any of them just to let you know what a beautiful cover you both made of this song. I love this song so much. Hope your school survives.
So they've decided to close PCVS, where these incredibly talented women found their voices. Where I once found mine. The echo of the hundred-year old halls in this song will always remind me of what we have lost in Peterborough.
This is well done. It really does suck that you guys are closing. Keep strong though, and bring a part of your brilliant school to the community of other schools. That way, the spirit of the school can never really die.
I'm now watching/listening to this video for the fourth time after finding your link through fark. I absolutely love you both. You have profound talent. Get on itunes so I can support you and the cause.
Amazing job, ladies! As a PCVS graduate, it makes me so proud that talent like this resides in the walls of that amazing school. All the best in the fight to Save PCVS!
Amazing...just amazing...It is truly a shame that the school is closing. My thoughts are with you all as you put up the good fight for keeping arts in education!
@jaredraab Thanks for correcting me. I knew I botched it the minute I hit "post". This is a phenomenal recording, by the way. You captured lightning in a bottle, so to speak, and that takes immense skill.
we are also fans of singing in stairwells and we are super-fans of your version of this song +++++ BEAUTIFUL SINGING ++++++ lovely harmonies ++++++ so so sorry about your school closing xo
@ibeequeen11 i totally agree. i love the vibe in between them. a real friendship and blessing they have with each other. one to know each other, two to share such a beautiful gift of singing together. i have watched some of their other video's and some are even more endearing.
Awesome! We do NOT need to close down High Schools focused on the arts! We NEED MORE of them available to many young people that are talented and to those of who may not 'fit" the regular high school mold!! Gorgeous voices!
Probably one of the best covers ever.
I can't watch this without crying for the pure beauty of it.
can't ever get enough of this. Do these 2 still sing together?
I can't stop listening to this, or even watching it. These two girls are beyond beautiful. You can feel everything, even if you don't know what it is you're feeling.

I have lost count of how many times I've watched this.
years later... still so damn good... love this!

The girl on the right sings so effortlessly and she's amazing!
I think this is such an incredibly beautiful rendition of this song. I keep playing it over and over. Thank you for sharing your wonderful gifts.
This is one of the best songs I have ever heard. This one. This version.
I saw neko case playing a festival in san francisco as the fiery sun set behind her flaming red hair. This was just as beautiful.
I love Neko, and I love you! I'm always blown away by young talent and I hope you continue to share those beautiful voices with the world.

What a fantastic sound you ladies make. I thought no one could do a Neko song better than her, but this is pretty darn close. Beautiful.
My god.... I was raised on Neko Case and can't count how many times I've heard this song... This song, left me crying. And I'm a guy.
I love this! What a fantastic version of one of my favorite Neko Case songs.
I can't stop listening. I really hope you record somethings and make it so I can buy them! Also, I hope Neko has heard this! I think she would be sooo impressed!

I randomly stumbled upon this on a friend's facebook feed. It is so entirely delicious. Thank you. Brightened my day. Y'all are fabulous.
This is absolutely amazing. I truly hope that P.C.V.S. stays open for decades to come. I've found myself coming back to this video every few hours. Janelle your voice is insane, I can't get over it! Keep it up ladies you're doing great!
i keep watching this! what would the world be without music like this. !?!? this video makes my month for sure
can't stop listening, love this version and love your voices together!
You girls sing exquisite harmonies, thank you . I don't know many contemporary musicians who do that very well except maybe The Low Anthem.
I hope you save your school and continue to make beautiful music.
Wow...as a big Neko fan i must say you two blew the roof off this song. Keep up the fight for PCVS...good schools that inspire students should not be forclosed on!
1) Compile an EP
2) Put it on iTunes so I can buy it
3) You get money for real talent, I get audio heaven.
You guys are killer.
Every time i think of my old high school i think of how many lives it has effected over the years. The memories made by every individual over decades, its overwhelming. Let P.C.V.S remain to play-out memories to come, and cherish memories past.
That was the absolute most goddamn beautiful thing I've heard all year. For the love of whatever God you worship, save that school!
this recording ought to be sold on itunes with all proceeds going to the school. really, really lovely. its been on repeat all day.

I have no words to tell you how much I appreciate this. Beautiful and new. Thank you.
beautiful. i got chills with your melodies..... if talent like this is ruined due to the school closing... then i might cry.
This is so wonderful! Beautiful voices. I have many, many fond memories of singing in the same stairwell. Being able to attend PCVS had such a great and positive impact on my life. There is so much artistic talent of all kinds coming out of Peterborough, and PCVS fosters creativity in every way. Keep it open!
your two of the most inspirational people ive ever watched and your canadian, watch this video with pride and know everyone is hoping the best for you...
This actually made me cry. It hurts to keep playing it, but I can't stop. It's so beautiful.
Kate and Janelle, never stop singing
I had never heard this song before I found this video, so I looked up the original and I made it about 30 seconds through and all I could think of was how I wished I was listening to this version :P
Very well done!!!
holy crap -- such naturally amazing voices - they make it look effortless but they're so good!
Fantastic job ladies!!! You're both so talented! As a former Crestwood student I can still say that I always admired PCVS. I hope this really help draws attention to your cause.
I have watched hundreds of things on RUclips and this is my first ever comment on any of them just to let you know what a beautiful cover you both made of this song. I love this song so much. Hope your school survives.
Beautifully done, ladies. As a faculty member of another arts high school, I know how hard it has been lately. We stand with you in solidarity.
You make me SO proud to be a PCVS alumni. Carry on, girls, you are amazing.
still so amazing
So they've decided to close PCVS, where these incredibly talented women found their voices. Where I once found mine. The echo of the hundred-year old halls in this song will always remind me of what we have lost in Peterborough.
wow...brought tears to my eyes. one of my fav songs that I only sing out loud in the car to. Bravo ladies! Great harmony!
Girls you're awesome. Brought tears to my eyes. Hope you are still singing.
Oh my gosh, your voices are GORGEOUS and soulful and perfect for this song, and for stairwells in general. Keep it up gals! Don't stop!
This is well done. It really does suck that you guys are closing. Keep strong though, and bring a part of your brilliant school to the community of other schools. That way, the spirit of the school can never really die.
This is incredible! So emotional and beautiful ....Made my eyes water... I love the part around 2:40 when they're smiling at each other
The original is amazing, but there's something truly special about the blending of your voices!
Just the sounds made me cry....amazing...make them record another
you guys are special. pure music, plain and simple. dont ever give up, and dont let the 'biz' try to change you!! you got it.
I'm now watching/listening to this video for the fourth time after finding your link through fark. I absolutely love you both. You have profound talent. Get on itunes so I can support you and the cause.
this is pure perfection. i keep listening to it over and over. i looked for it on itunes too, but it's not there----yet?
I've watched this many times since it was first posted. Just wonderful!
I may get addicted to this
you ladies sound like angels, seriously wow!
Just beautiful. Added to my favourites.
I just keep replaying it. You both are so beautiful!
You guys rock. Peterborough needs PCVS. Perfect example of the cultured, intelligent and talented artists that PC both produces and promotes.
Amazing job, ladies! As a PCVS graduate, it makes me so proud that talent like this resides in the walls of that amazing school. All the best in the fight to Save PCVS!
I just can't believe this. I already listened to it 4 times, just today and ............I think I'm going to watch it again...
Thank you girls

What a great message and a great fight, you ladies have amazing voices. Keep on being incredible.
Love this! Both women have great voices, but the one on the right has a magical sound! I love the way she sings!
Amazing...just amazing...It is truly a shame that the school is closing. My thoughts are with you all as you put up the good fight for keeping arts in education!
@jaredraab Thanks for correcting me. I knew I botched it the minute I hit "post". This is a phenomenal recording, by the way. You captured lightning in a bottle, so to speak, and that takes immense skill.
Beautiful and inspired - please make more videos! You make me proud to be from Ptbo!
Please make more of these and show what we're losing if we lose this school. So powerful.
Just lovely and so clean!!! Went down like butter!
Beautiful. RIP P.C.V.S. Had a few good times passing through
Neko was right when she shouted out to you in Kingston - that was very, very beautiful. Great job, and best of luck.
I watch this video all the time. Absolutely love it. Fantastic. Keep it up & do some more videos!
All of my children went to this fabulous school. I get chills listening to these two. Save PCVS!
holy shit. Two melty voices. oh man. this is good.
I am proud of people like these.
This made me cry. I've never heard this song. I've seen these people in the hallway, I've had them in my classes. I never knew
an amazing cover, so proud to come from a school that encourages and nurtures talent like this. save pcvs!
Singin' in the school stairwell! How cool is that? Great musicianship!
An amazing cover of an amazing song! I mean, wow. Just wow.
Beautiful Ladies with beautiful voices!!! ♫ Thank you so much for sharing ♪
Best I have ever heard! Please do more!
This is probably my favorite song that exists and you sing it beautifully.
I am blown away. That was beautiful.
Your voices and harmonies are sick, I love this so much. I want more!
Wow. I love Neko Case but... um this is BETTER. Your voices are just lovely. Gorgeous!
I wish they'd do more. This is so lovely.
This is amazing! As a Trent student I had no idea this existed until now! I don't want them to close this program :(
we are also fans of singing in stairwells and we are super-fans of your version of this song +++++ BEAUTIFUL SINGING ++++++ lovely harmonies ++++++ so so sorry about your school closing xo

To beautiful songbirds. This was incredibly moving and haunting.
