When a band covers a song it's not meant to surpass the original, but to put their own musical style on it. That's what people never understand about Cover Songs.
That annoys the bejesus out of me, Ian. A cover is a tribute, it's a musician saying they like an artist that you like, but you will always get muppets saying stuff like "You aren't X, don't try to be X!" It amazes me the will of instinct.
This remake saved my life. when I first heard it I was paralyzed and completely suicidal. I shattered the c4 in my neck in a wrestling accident. My upperbody was completely paralyzed. Had to relearn how to write and to use my hands... When it happened I was 190 lbs and dropped to 146 in 10 days... After a successful fusion and physical therapy im back to 100%. This song calmed me down on a night I didn't see any hope.... If it wasnt for Milky Chance covering this song and hearing it on the exact night I did. I may have made a permanent mistake for a temporary problem. Thank you Milky Chance/The pixes for the original. True artists never die. Thank you for your art.
You know how hard it can be to focuse on what you play for minutes? Especially when theres singing and other instruments AND a camera around you. And as a bassist, if you play wrong everyone plays wrong.
Didnt think this song could sound so romantic yet island like... I love this rendition. And that begining intro binaural sound recording is pure ear candy.
You know when your just browsing TH-cam for something, anything, but nothing in particular and you just stumble across the absolute perfect song you needed to hear in that moment and didn't even know you needed it until you heard it and smiled and realised everything is gonna be ok, everything is wonderful and life is beautiful.
I’m older than everyone on this thread and YES. Yes this is true. Lost the Job Lost the house Lost the wife Lost the family (have 50percent custody) Lost my debts Lost my possessions Found Freedom and Happiness.
An actual true remake that is hands down as great as the original. The Calypso and Reggae feel are very Marley-esque, yet uniquely your own (IMO). Hats off to you and very nicely done!! I love this version! Thank you for your creativity. Truly amazing!
Milky Chance, l love you!!! I can’t stop listening to your songs and watch your videos. Started when l was living in Malibu, California, heard you in the excellent radio KCRW and still do while now living in France! I’m never bored of listening to your amazing sounds and voice. I dream to be able to attend one of your concerts 🙏❤️🙏. Thank you for all the Love, the art, the great pleasure you share with us. 😘
One time when I was in high school I heard this song while I'd going through the corridors, then it stay in my head and one of my friends tells me that it was a pixies song so i looked for it and when I find it I lay down on my bed and just replay it 2737 times, it was describing exactly what I felt. This song help me and save me for real and what the hell that's make me sad and happy in the same time
They took the song, and changed it into something that's more theirs, and i think thats why i like it so much. They don't do the "I want to sound EXACTLY like ________" rout which i feel too many bands strive towards. They took the song and made it into their own. It reminds me a lot of Kurt Cobain's cover of "And i love her"
I am so thankful for this video for simultaneously introducing me to both the song "Where is My Mind" as well as what has become one of my favorite bands
LYRICS: With your feet on the air and your head on the ground Try this trick and spin it, yeah Your head will collapse But there's nothing in it And you'll ask yourself Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Ooh yeah Way out in the water See it swimmin' I was swimmin' in the Caribbean Animals were hiding behind the rock Except the little fish But they told me, he swears Tryin' to talk to me Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Ooh Way out in the water See it swimmin' Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Yeah Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Yeah Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Where is my mind?
eu simplesmente sou fã desse cara, é isso o que expressa o que sinto, ele é meu ídolo, eu apenas gosto muito de todas as músicas dele e posso por a playlist inteira a tocar durante a tarde até a noite
You really think this is a good solo? None of the bends is done clean and it seems like practised too many times. Not much emotion there. I can't say I can do it better (well maybe I can), but with this amount of skill, I'd never say, I want to play a solo in a song, that's probably reach millions! @Tobias It shouldn't be too hard to transcribe this one!
+Muhjestiic I saw them say that in an interview. :) and then they confirmed it themselves when I met them (twice) in one day! They said they might have an album out by the end of 2015 or the beginning of 2016!
+Larissa Snyder omg where did you meet them? You're so lucky! I'm literally saving up money now to go to the nearest city or country that they'll be touring this year. So excited!!!
Lyrics: Ooh, stop With your feet on the air and your head on the ground Try this trick and spin it, yeah Your head will collapse But there's nothing in it And you'll ask yourself Where is my mind?

Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Way out in the water See it swimmin' With your feet on the air and your head on the ground Try this trick and spin it, yeah Your head will collapse If there's nothing in it And you'll ask yourself Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Where is my mind? Way out in the water See it swimmin' Ooh With your feet on the air and your head on the ground Ooh Try this trick and spin it, yeah Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh (Um beijo na bunda!)

When a band covers a song it's not meant to surpass the original, but to put their own musical style on it. That's what people never understand about Cover Songs.
And they definitely gave their own Milky Chance taste to it.
+Ian Sims You can thank electronic music for that
love the pixies but dam, this version is awesome! !!!!
That annoys the bejesus out of me, Ian. A cover is a tribute, it's a musician saying they like an artist that you like, but you will always get muppets saying stuff like "You aren't X, don't try to be X!"
It amazes me the will of instinct.
Rob Fraser sure it's a tribute, I never said it was a bad cover. Just that bands should add their own touch.
The bass is absolutely fantastic!
Roberto Calzadilla hahaha
And it sounds even better live. You should have seen Running live, it was amazing.
Roberto Calzadilla could anybody tab this for me?
joel francis get it on Ultimate Guitar dude
YES I THOUGHT I WAS THE ONLY ONE THINKING THAT
One of my favorite bands doing a cover of one of my favorite bands... this is excellent!
Samee
I love the vibe of this cover. A solid rendition.
Same thoughts apply to my mind. Where is my mind?
Will they marry their own
Disregard ! I meant to say They made it their own.
I like this better than the original.
I tried three times to make a comment expressing how much I love this song, and I cannot.
The cover is what I am referring to.

Yeah I agree with you.
And what kind is that? Milky Chance is mainstream
Agreed. I think the specific genre they create is Indie. Indie-pop specifically.
