    This summer, they would play this song at one of our local swimming pools when it was closing time. This song reminds me of summer lol. Great cover!

    That amazing moment when my daughter and her best-friend go to a concert and sing to every word of the Alex goot songs & covers, it makes me feel like I`ve done the right thing!!

    Alex, I can't thank you enough for wearing my bracelets in this video. You have no idea how happy I was. It made my week. Probably even my life. You're the sweetest and most down to earth guy I've ever met. I love that you care about your fans this much. Thank you

    Nothing can be better than the original of any song... This cover was a great cover! i'm not going to lie, but the person who wrote the song will always preform the song the best.

      Eh... That's not always true, for instance rascal Flatts cover of life is a highway is miles better than the original.

    You two are so amazing, and it warms my heart to see music and art and ideas being shared so freely, without worries over property or profit or greed. It's moments like this that make me grateful for the internet, and the freedom it allows us all. Our generation is going to change the world, for better and for always, and this is one small part of that movement. Bravo.

    We played this in my schools performance of the play “she kills monsters” which is set in the 90’s and has a lot of older pop culture references. It was obviously the closing song and we did our bowes to it. Whenever I hear it I just remember the good times we had back in school

    Loads of people calling AUTOTUNE!! yeah no.... There using an old recording trick called vocal layering basically they recorded there voices singing parts twice one at a lower octave and one at a higher and then overlapped the two recordings...

  • @haraldhechler3557
    @haraldhechler3557 8 ปีที่แล้ว +19

    Another one of this professional "young plastic cover kids"- videos. Technically perfect but cheezy and softened 'til it hurts... Listen to the original - it's rough and powerful. This high-gloss-thingy here is (despite the pieces of fabric tape at the microphone) so aseptic and smoothed out that there is absolutely no soul left in this interpretation of that great song. Sorry, but they totally f***ed this song up.

  • @JackPillkinTon
    @JackPillkinTon 11 ปีที่แล้ว +28

    look, i'm a Music Tech and music student, i record on a weekly basis and i can tell you right now that the vocals are edited beyond belief, it takes away the power and soul that live peformances and less edited songs project, not saying these two aren't talented but with the amount of editing that goes into goots videos it just, for me ruins the songs.

  • @bijibadness
    @bijibadness 8 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    this is one of the very best songs from the 90's, but i've ALWAYS disliked the way that the Semisonic version goes for the *BIG, DISTORTED CHORUS GUITARS* that were SO eminently popular at the time (it was, after all, only several years since "Smells Like Teen Spirit"). this is the version of the song that, for me, does it the way it should have been.

    This song takes me back to the first time over a year ago that I first hung out with my ex boyfriend for the first time and watched "Friends With Benefits"... it's funny how a song can take you back to a memory you'd tried so hard to escape and yet, you still know exactly who you want to take you home. Good stuff. Awesome cover.
