That’s a bold statement. It’s really good, but “Hallelujah” covered by Jeff Buckley and “All Along the Watchtower” covered by Jimi Hendrix would like to disagree
I’ve heard at least a hundred covers on TH-cam if I’m to be real . Spent days surfing beautiful renditions of Radiohead by the infamous regulars and I can say with 100% certainty that this is the best vocal performance from a cover I’ve ever heard ❤
This was wigging me out so much until I figured out he dropped the G down. He does that on jigsaw too! Why do other ppl post stuff in regular tuning and pretend it sounds anything like the song? Ugh. Great job as usual!
Joe, hands down, the greatest Radiohead reproductions on the internet consistently...truly remarkable...has anyone from the band or their team reached out to you? you truly deserve their recognition. Cheers!
glennc100 thank you! Not exactly! But I did meet Ed (Still, I didn’t tell him about this channel haha) and I have chatted with a couple closer degrees of separation! While it would be a pinch myself moment for sure, I’m just as happy playing and getting closer with these songs, and with all the people out there like me on whom they’ve made an impact!
You cover lesser known Radiohead songs, that are so good, that when I played one for my friend he couldn't tell the difference until he saw what video was playing. Never stop what you, unless you have to when run out of Radiohead tracks I guess
What impresses me most about this, aside from everything, is the amazing production and mixing. Sounds as clean as any studio album; you’ve got some serious fuckin chops man.
It's brillant. Never saw someone who can play each instrument and sing like this. Si je ferme les yeux, j'ai l'impression que c'est Thom Yorke qui chante. Beaucoup de talent ici, un grand bravo. J'aimerai voir '' Street Spirit '' joué ici un jour. Bonne continuation 👍
So there's a lot of dispute about the best version of lift. Be it the official 2017 version, the pinkpop version, the minidisk (hacks) version.... but this has to be in the conversation. Amazing.
I do believe Radiohead when they say that were this released back in the 90s, it would have been an instant mainstream hit, maybe even more than Creep.
Joe, I hope it makes you happy to hear that you & Taka are the only TH-camrs on this godforsaken site that make me smile when I see an upload notification from you. When I saw it was "Lift", I questioned whether it was gonna be the MD125 version or not. Thanks.
i honestly never took this song seriously(coz it was not realized on ok cumputer itself) but this cover changed my view about it, liked, subscribed and added to bookmarks! simply amazing, greetings from iran
What? This feels like listening to the original recording :D Must have been really difficult to get the tone of the instruments so much simillar, not even talking about the singing itself... Perfect cover.
I actually find it hard to believe you haven't just lifted the original song and placed it over footage of yourself. If this is real - bravo, sir. Bravo!
Joe Edelmann you picked everything up perfectly like, this is seamless dude thanks for the cover they always make songs hit the same again after ive replayed them hundreds of times
I stepped away from immersing myself in Radiohead the way I did when I had to battle some dark stuff in my life years ago. I’ve only recently reacquainted my self with a more expanded catalog and am hearing this song in a way I never experienced before- allows me introspection that doesn’t send me spiraling since I’ve firmly owned the most regrettable parts of my past. It’s almost like when I give this song a listen now, it feels like I’ve never even heard it before. My new appreciation brought me here tonight- seeking live or cover versions- and I was blown away by the subtle way you covered this song in a slightly warmer tone than the studio version- true to form yet not a mechanical and cold, rigid copy. Just as engaging as the band. Brilliant work.
Probably my favorite phase of Radiohead. Catchy guitar-driven alt rock (which is what I love), but written by dudes who wanted to bend the rules a bit. 😉 Amazing cover as always!
The worst mistake that your mom made was that she didn't have you as quintuplets
he compensated just fine, I'd say!
From the moment I heard "This is the place..." I know it was going to be good.
i like the part where it goes "EEEEEEEEEEEEEED"
Your voice makes the hairs on arms stand up! Such a faithful cover
Oh man this is stunning, it’s an honor to be mentioned here Joe. This is truely beautiful, I loved it so much! Love from your friend in Brasil!
Eeeeeeeeeed
Melhor cover do youtube
Melhor canal de cover de RadioHead sem discussão
I thought you were dead.
I thought this was because you died 😂
I think this is the best cover ive ever heard of any song
That’s a bold statement. It’s really good, but “Hallelujah” covered by Jeff Buckley and “All Along the Watchtower” covered by Jimi Hendrix would like to disagree
The only thing that could have possibly made this better is if you were wearing a yellow rain coat. Brilliant as always.
A sand colored Stutterheim to be precise.
my fav song 💙
I’ve heard at least a hundred covers on TH-cam if I’m to be real . Spent days surfing beautiful renditions of Radiohead by the infamous regulars and I can say with 100% certainty that this is the best vocal performance from a cover I’ve ever heard ❤
I was singing along and I swear I forgot it was a cover for a good moment
i still listen to it
The minidisc version!! such a great cover Joe!!
I really love the fact that you chose the early band version
the best version imo❤
This was wigging me out so much until I figured out he dropped the G down. He does that on jigsaw too! Why do other ppl post stuff in regular tuning and pretend it sounds anything like the song? Ugh. Great job as usual!

I'm a die hard Radiohead fan and all I can say is that was simply perfect.
4 years late to the party.... but you nailed the voice sir.
your voice is incredible! so similar to Thom's yet putting your own spin on the track. amazing stuff
Jesus Christ, I used to look up Radiohead covers for my whole life. Haven’t in a couple years and come back to this. Wow
You cover lesser known Radiohead songs, that are so good, that when I played one for my friend he couldn't tell the difference until he saw what video was playing. Never stop what you, unless you have to when run out of Radiohead tracks I guess
I started and played the orginal version simultaneously, and hardly even noticed the difference... Joe, you"re a ... talent...
What impresses me most about this, aside from everything, is the amazing production and mixing. Sounds as clean as any studio album; you’ve got some serious fuckin chops man.
Nothing short of spectacular
THAT WAS AMAZING DUDE!
最近ハマっちゃってます
dam... radiohead is a hard band to cover, you killed it
the mini disc version, WOW, truly amazing ! I'm Glad I found your work
extremely talented, wish you the best good sir
Impeccable!
The second I heard the minidisc version I hoped your cover was of it
Thankfully it was
Honestly, this one has to be your best cover
This has that '96 version vibe in it.
Love that synth strings tone like pinkpop live ver. In minidisc ver, jonny probably wrote the score for acoustic strings.
It's brillant. Never saw someone who can play each instrument and sing like this.
Si je ferme les yeux, j'ai l'impression que c'est Thom Yorke qui chante. Beaucoup de talent ici, un grand bravo.
J'aimerai voir '' Street Spirit '' joué ici un jour. Bonne continuation 👍
Check band called Unkindness (he hasn't done anything new lately, but he plays multiple instruments also: th-cam.com/video/b37Q97xooio/w-d-xo.html ).
looooovvveee the intro on this one
absolutely the best track from the minidiscs
So there's a lot of dispute about the best version of lift. Be it the official 2017 version, the pinkpop version, the minidisk (hacks) version.... but this has to be in the conversation. Amazing.
Damn bro! You sound exactly like Thom from that era!
Really cool! 🎉 Really lifts!
I prefer this version to an original one.
I've listened to this version way more than the original lmao
The pinkpop 1996 version. Great job!!
That intro was awesome
I do believe Radiohead when they say that were this released back in the 90s, it would have been an instant mainstream hit, maybe even more than Creep.
心が癒されました
This is just perfect. You even did the thom yorke head bobble.
dude you fucking killed it!!! sounds identical man, really good cover bro, mad props
You're save now
Wow, this song sounds perfect with your voice 😍
Great work
Awesome man. You NAILED the vocals.
This song is too beautiful
Holy shit that was great
this is awesome man.
damn this is sick
Well done. Really nailed the pink pop vibe on this one.
Joe, I hope it makes you happy to hear that you & Taka are the only TH-camrs on this godforsaken site that make me smile when I see an upload notification from you. When I saw it was "Lift", I questioned whether it was gonna be the MD125 version or not. Thanks.
I don't know how I didn't see this before, it's incredible, you are incredible.
i honestly never took this song seriously(coz it was not realized on ok cumputer itself)
but this cover changed my view about it, liked, subscribed and added to bookmarks!
simply amazing, greetings from iran

The production value of these videos is remarkable! Love it
Joe - a - 1 MAN - Radiohead - cover band ! BRAVO ! JOE - You are the BmAND! 😉
I love that intro so much, it really sets the song's feel and atmosphere
This is one of my favorite non-album songs by anyone ever, and you covered it beautifully. Fantastic job!
Man what a damn beautiful cover. Those vocals. I have goosebumps frkn everywhere. Jeeesus.
Bravo man!
Este cover te quedó magistral!
Phenomenal cover, absolutely smashed every part mate
I actually find it hard to believe you haven't just lifted the original song and placed it over footage of yourself. If this is real - bravo, sir. Bravo!
Lee Hyde ☺️ it’s me, I promise! Thanks!
Joe Edelmann you picked everything up perfectly like, this is seamless dude thanks for the cover they always make songs hit the same again after ive replayed them hundreds of times
"you haven't just *lifted* the original song"
I see what you did there, you cheeky bastard 😂
Your covers are so amazing Joe. I would kill to have half the musical talent you have.

I was waiting for you to be holding shopping bags at the end. Man, you are always spot on.
William Lecorchick 😆thanks as always for the support!
Heck yeah, mini disk version! Thanks for the new upload, I’ve enjoyed binging them.
Probably my favorite phase of Radiohead. Catchy guitar-driven alt rock (which is what I love), but written by dudes who wanted to bend the rules a bit. 😉
Amazing cover as always!
This is mind blowing. I cant stop playing this. infact this is the only song I've heard today.. like 30 times
i just want to say that ive been listening to your cover regularly. good stuff.
Wow…no words. I instantly subscribed and hit notifications. Incredible all around.
Lovely voice and performance! Really, great job! Grettings from Colombia
perfect.
Sweet Lord!!!
Can't believe I'm only just finding this cover. It sounds so good! You are a very talented individual and I hope you keep up these amazing covers!
Wow! Never heard anyone sound so much like young Thom like this. Great job :D
The best "Lift' cover i've ever seen :D
His covers are far more amazing than most of the covers I've ever heard. Excellent work, man.
3:03 i like this part bro, what a great cover🔥🔥
wtf this is insanely good
your cover is currently the song that i listen to when i wake up, eat, chill, and sleep. fantastic job!
Again... I listen every day... Congrats for this version!
Speechless....
This is not only great musicianship in every respect, it's also the best recording of this song ever.
Fantastic. Utter perfection.
This is beautiful Joe!
hell yeah, the disk 15 ver! good stuff dude
this is the best cover i have ever heard
Incredible cover!
Very very good man ! 😮
You're a frickin magician and this is frickin magical
Finally someone did cover of this amazing version ! I think this one is much better than one on the album. Great job man !!
Spot on brother
you are the man joe. i come back to your covers every oncein a while
You sound just like Thom
he sounds like every member
he nailed it
The resemblance is uncanny
