Right how much fire is that! Paul McCartney's favorite memory of the song "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" is Paul watching Jimmy Hendricks play it live at a club down the street from his house just a week after the record was released!
@@cmoneystudios4813 He's literally stating that the singer decided to sing the higher note and not tune down like the original song, this has absolutely nothing to do with knowing guitar chords
ashton neil it has everything to with that. You just said he kept the guitar in standard. Meaning guitar chords. You just contradicted yourself in one sentence. Nice
@@cmoneystudios4813 Standard has nothing to do with chords, it's literally what the guitar is tuned to, it's the key of the song, not the chords played. The key is higher is what he's stating in the original comment, The G# is the note the singer usually doesn't have to hit because the guitar isn't in standard tuning, but in this cover it is in standard meaning, he has to hit a higher note than the original song, meaning G#
I'd like to hear this with a good audio, because I love Weezer and it sounds really good even though everything is like muted when the drums play loudly.
Blah blah blah. Everyone is suddenly a music critic. Who cares? Maybe they just enjoy each others music and what a cool bonus to get to watch and hear the 2 bands covering ieach others songs.
Fellow fans of FTP might note that Weezer did a cover of Pumped Up Kicks as the song was taking off. I find it ironic and satisfying to find this treasure. Thanks for posting it!
Rod Vargas I got a Squier Affinity Telecaster and it sounded amazing! I was going to switch the pick ups but it's honestly perfectly fine cx I might put some humbuckers in there but that's later
Caylo321 Tread carefully on squier lines. My Bridge pickup is too trebly but it mixes suuper nicely with the neck pickup. I suggest upgrading a squier. cx
I love his voice more than almost every singer ever. Its really unique. I noticed it on the old tv show craig kilborn, when they played pumped up kicks.
davefan16 If your in a band that doesn't have a roadie and 7 extra guitars laying around then most likely your guitar is tuned to E. Its not like the audience will just chill while you tune down a half step.
Brad Madison are you tying to say that foster the people does not have a roadie of any kind? either way, that shouldnt be an issue, i think they tuned it at E just because it fits his voice better
It was me. I've seen FTP a bunch before they hit the big time (same with Grouplove and Young the Giant, actually), so it's kind of weird to me how popular they are now. I remember fangirling with Mark over Little Dragon and them loading their own equipment at SXSW. Those were the days...
Thats one bunch of guys that love music. He played the shit out of that cover. Do you know how HOT it is North of Houston in August? He was sweating balls.LOL
I was also brought here because of weezer playing pumped up kicks. Mark mastered this song way before he got famous. Weezer was his favorite band in his teens. Mark did a awesome job on this. Way better than weezer in Costa Mesa, doing Pumped Up Kicks.
If your using your phone in recording you will notice the sound pops when too much noise, try recording app for audio to set for de-noiser setting to prevent the sound bropping..nice gig..
funny how when weezer played pumped up kicks they had to read the lyrics off of a paper... just goes to show that say it aint so was a much more legendary song
So you're telling me that rivers couldn't memorize the lyrics to the song he was supposed to perform because "pumped up kicks isn't as legendary as say it ain't so"? Then how did mark memorize it? How did his band memorize it? How did the millions of people who have listened to the song memorize it? And obviously say it ain't so is a more well known song, it came out in 1994, over 20 years ago! Pumped up kicks was released only 4 years ago. Your argument is based in bias and raw emotion for a band whom I also find amazing. I LOVE WEEZER, and say it ain't so is one of my favorite songs of all time, don't get me wrong. You just sound like an idiot when you don't acknowledge the fact that he was reading lyrics off of a paper because he was ill prepared, not because one song was "more legendary" than the other, or whatever your idiotic phrasing was.
Impuhlz the reason i said say it aint so was a more legendary song was because it was the only legandary song that has been mentioned here... pumped up kicks sucks. i just checked it out because i heard weezer perform it. im not the kind of "tuff guy" thats gonna call people names over the safety of the internet, but you can just metaphorically shove your opinions of me up your ass.
I like how both these bands cover each other.
JOY RIDE YESSSS
Like when Weezer covered "Teenage Dirtbag" by Whetus and Wheatus covered "My Name Is Jonas"
I'm still waiting for radiohead to cover cant stop partying
@@julialuanna 🤣🤣
S’dont need the word “both”
Brought here because of Weezer playing Pumped Up Kicks.
saaaame!!!
Same!
I hate mongoloids
Close2thEdge And they did it just 8 days apart.
Same here
only 8 days after Weezer covered Pumped Up Kicks. This is a sweet way of saying "I heard that you covered my song and it means a lot to me".
they "get" each others songs , and this sounds great too
Right how much fire is that! Paul McCartney's favorite memory of the song "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" is Paul watching Jimmy Hendricks play it live at a club down the street from his house just a week after the record was released!
I love how they both cover each other live.
I know hahah!
Agreed and there both amazing so thats awesome
I know I thought that as I was clicking on this, it's so cute
+pluckernil And these guys learned the lyrics!!
You could tell he LOVED singing that absolute classic!
Foster the People - Say It Ain't So [BASS BOOSTED]
The audio made me think my headphones were broken.
lmao i thought wtf i dont remember commenting on this video
@@kristupas8667 lol
kristu19 lol
Same
I love how anywhere this gets sung by any band....everyone knows the lyrics. This is one of my favorite songs to karaoke to.
This song will never be complete without rivers and that lightning strap
Wow, and weezer plays pumped up kicks. This is a great rendition.
Every time the bass drum hits, the rest of the sound drowns out. What?
Because it's cool cool
Ian White technical audio reasons. basically the microphone can't record it, because it's probably from a phone
I would've liked this, but the audio sucks, so I'm leaving a dislike instead.
Ikr it makes me feel like my head is pounding
In production that's called side chaining. But it's usually done intentionally
lol they didn't want to tune down so the singer just took the g#s and hit em like a champ
danny provolone shut the fuck up, quit trying to flex because you know basic guitar chords
@@cmoneystudios4813 How's this a flex lol
@@cmoneystudios4813 He's literally stating that the singer decided to sing the higher note and not tune down like the original song, this has absolutely nothing to do with knowing guitar chords

this was done 5-6 days after weezer covered pumped up kicks
i feel like it was a dick measuring contest
Imagine If They get a more Alt. Rock sound for their 3rd album!
Ya Ik I really want them to become an alternative rock band
Ned wawrzyn I want to but not at all, I mean they can keep their piano a electronic songs but They should add more guitars!
that didnt happen haha, they turned in to pop band :(
João Rupp Mark said he has been listening to a lot of punk rock so the next album could be punk kind of more like lotus eater lol
Haha. Rip that dream.
I'd like to hear this with a good audio, because I love Weezer and it sounds really good even though everything is like muted when the drums play loudly.
Foster the people you love with love.
Show them the way that you feel.
I love how they cover eachother's songs x)
Both EPIC and my favorite bands.
when somebody plays a solo : FILM IT
is it so hard to understand?
i think he has the same guitar of brian
Lena Gotti I didn't get why they ignored that either. Must've been caught up in listening.
They must have thought the solo was coming from the red tele 😂😂
Not impressive either way.
They played my favorite song on my 11th. Birthday hahaha
Your birthday is one day after mine lol
11th? Jesus.... I heard the original premier on the radio when I was close to 11....
DAMN THIS WAS AWSOME..LOVE U MARK FOSTER
I cant be the only one who loves watching bands covering other bands out of respect
Blah blah blah. Everyone is suddenly a music critic. Who cares? Maybe they just enjoy each others music and what a cool bonus to get to watch and hear the 2 bands covering ieach others songs.
That Weezer dude taught Foster this song years ago. They are friends and I think both groups do a fine job on this tune. Rock On!
his little dance is contagious no every time i hear this song or any song of i end up doing the whole little shrug dance thingy. :)
just fell in love with them all over again!!
OG HIPSTERS WEEZER
this guy reminds me of Liam McPoyle from Always sunny ))
Fellow fans of FTP might note that Weezer did a cover of Pumped Up Kicks as the song was taking off. I find it ironic and satisfying to find this treasure. Thanks for posting it!
Omg im obsessed with this band right now & im obsessed with this song...so perfect!!!
One of my favorite bands covering one of my other favorite bands!!! Nice work People!
Awesome cover. Never heard of this band before, this is my introduction.
this is actually a decent cover
yes it is
But need that matt sharp high pitch 😂
The like count is exactly 69
Not just decent, but pure good
It's cool because Weezer covered "Pumped Up Kicks" the same year 6 days before this
It's awesome how both bands covered each other
heaven yeah! I should cover Foster the People Next
wow the bass drum has a cool sounding effect because of the shit camcorder quality. I LIKE IT
me too ;p
And this is why i'm getting a Telecaster
It's a great guitar, I have a Squier fender telecaster and it sounds beautiful
Rod Vargas I got a Squier Affinity Telecaster and it sounded amazing! I was going to switch the pick ups but it's honestly perfectly fine cx I might put some humbuckers in there but that's later
Awesome guitar. I have an Ibanez RG but looking into getting a telecaster. They're pretty nice.
Caylo321 Tread carefully on squier lines. My Bridge pickup is too trebly but it mixes suuper nicely with the neck pickup. I suggest upgrading a squier. cx
i have a tele but prefur Mustangs, Jaguiars, and strats, but tele is the blusey sound weezer has
wow, great song! Thank God for America!!
one of the best songs ever covered by the best band ever!
Really awesome cover! Foster the People NEVER dissapoint me!
I was at Outsidelands that year and missed Foster just to watch another set! FML
I like this cover a whole lot
Im sure now, having seeing them back then, and now knowing there fame, It must feel like you discovered them. Thats really cool
Got damn! Awesome cover!!!!!
They have to make a Studio version for this cover!!
these guys are talented. very good cover.
he's an angel, beautiful
im sorry but..... i love foster the people and thats never going to change!!!!!!
lol someone in the beginning is all like "is that a new song? never heard this before" XD
All I could think was "OH BALLS!!!!!!!".......
I love his voice more than almost every singer ever. Its really unique. I noticed it on the old tv show craig kilborn, when they played pumped up kicks.
Best version ever;)
That was amazing.
This is actually super great !!!
I love this
Nice ...very good.
Say it aint so in E?
e flat
Yeah, song is supposed to be half step down, sounds weird like this.
davefan16 If your in a band that doesn't have a roadie and 7 extra guitars laying around then most likely your guitar is tuned to E. Its not like the audience will just chill while you tune down a half step.
Brad Madison are you tying to say that foster the people does not have a roadie of any kind?
either way, that shouldnt be an issue, i think they tuned it at E just because it fits his voice better
Alexai Kun Yep. Ultimately Eb, E, who gives a shit?
I LOVE THIS COVER! :D The best song covered by the best band!
besides blowing out my speakers, this vid is awesome!
Never thought I needed this
It was me. I've seen FTP a bunch before they hit the big time (same with Grouplove and Young the Giant, actually), so it's kind of weird to me how popular they are now. I remember fangirling with Mark over Little Dragon and them loading their own equipment at SXSW. Those were the days...
You know what's awesome? Old weezer is my favorite band and Foster The People who are my second, are covering them!
omfg i so wish i could have gone to outside lands this year
Thats one bunch of guys that love music. He played the shit out of that cover. Do you know how HOT it is North of Houston in August? He was sweating balls.LOL
I never knew I needed this
Ahhh what a Great band!
Which sounded pretty good!
Really good cover!
they covered... each other. wow. that's amazing.
FUCKIN LOVE THIS SONG. HAVE FOR YEARS AND YEARS BRO. :)
What a gem!
just goosebumps...
This was an amazing record.
What are the frickin odds that my favorite band plays one of my most favorite songs of all time??!!
This is good stuff. I want them for Christmas.
Never knew one couldn't have personal preferences... regardless of which version you prefer, this was a well done cover :)
This is awesome
I heard a story that Rivers thought Mark this song in a party when Mark was 13.
Amazing how it goes full circle.
my favorite bands cover each other
Saw them last week for the third time at Firefly
I love this! It's freaking awesome!!
such a good cover love it ;)
Nothings ever better than the original. :3
For a long time, I thought that say it ain't so was in C# minor. so now, I get to hear how it would've really sounded if it were in C# minor
AHHH I LOVVE WEEZER AND FTP!!! IT WAS AN AWESOME COVER
I love this dude's voice, its a little high and shaky but it just fits this song so perfectly
Soo good.
AMAZING!!!!!!!!!!!
this is so much better than all the covers.
wow this was really good!
I liked this before watching
i swear i have veiwed this more than 1,099 times...
I was also brought here because of weezer playing pumped up kicks. Mark mastered this song way before he got famous. Weezer was his favorite band in his teens. Mark did a awesome job on this. Way better than weezer in Costa Mesa, doing Pumped Up Kicks.
I love it!
Rivers has to read the lyrics to "Pumped up Kicks" but Mark memorizes "Say it Ain't So". lol
XD
Well that and this song was 17 years old at the time of recording so he had a lot more time to memorize it
It was also written in the 90s dude. They’ve been playing that cover for 20 years.
Weezer is a bigger band. Would not be surprised if Mark has covered this song for years.
Because this song has been a classic for awhile
I love how Weezer covered their song about 3 or 4 months before this, so it's only fair that they return the favor! :D
I like how weezer covered pumped up kicks and foster the people covered say it ain’t so, I think that’s really cool
hermoso
Pretty good!!!
