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.
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
+dombledawe You sir, see past their sorcery...with your own sorcery! Sinister bastard is planning something...also, how did I get here, I fucking hate this song
What a freaking coincidence! I was just jammin this song on my 4 string guitar (2 broke) and still managed to killed it! Thought of looking for the cover on TH-cam and found this! This is really good! But not as good as my 4 string one, hahaha. Anyway have a lovely day guys :-)
i just cried. this song brings back so many memories of junior high age. it was always my favorite they played at dances and 4-h camp. and now you and Chad sing it. what is air?
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...
Wyatt Chappell SOMEONE WHO KNOWS WHAT THEIR TALKING ABOUT! I do recordings for vocals and this is the best effect you can use to get the perfect sound.
Yes, there is auto tune. No, there isn't any auto tune. I frankly don't give a shit and I seriously hate it when I see people posting it all over you tube comment sections. (this is just my rage opinion though)
I just sicked in my mouth a little bit.... way to take a really nice song and turn it into everything that sucks about music these days guys. If you had done this live, with feeling, it may have been a different story.
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.
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.
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.
This song has been a fave of mine ever since I was...like 6 but I could never find the name, I am so happy you made a cover of it, you are better then the band.
finally ever since I heard this song on Friends with benefits I've been trying to find a decent version of this!!! HERE IT IS!! Love it as always, BRB, gotta go to itunes!
i didn't know this guy, i was in ottawa and he was right next to me and people was like going crazy and i was wondering who is this alex good, after checking him on the internet, now i'd be one of those fans going crazy for this guy, thumbs up ! you rock!
Fun story, I didn't know about you guys until Kurt posted one of your videos. Just looking through some of my favourite songs from this period and here I stumble across this and Save Tonight also. Stunning.
Check out ALL my original music, right here! ---> th-cam.com/video/K7gcwyBA9pY/w-d-xo.html
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!

Vaocal harminization + Instrumental skills + practice = Amazing.

Eh... That's not always true, for instance rascal Flatts cover of life is a highway is miles better than the original.
Bob Dylan wrote some of the greatest songs ever, but they were better when performed by others
The thing about arts intrinsic value most musicians and people know when a song is bigger than them
I love you two when you sing together!
"I thought it was 3 eye blind" :) love this cover, love this song, and love the movie Friends With Benefits!
OMG I HAVEN'T HEARD THIS SONG IN FOREVER!
This is one of my favorite songs, and you just reinforced my love!
Are u alive
My jaw dropped....I'm in total awe right now. Absolutely amazing -3
Totally awesome!!!
Madi :)
I can't believe they covered this song!!! I have loved this song for years and I was afraid it was fading away. A beautiful cover.
This song won't be fading away any time soon
i always think of the movie Friends With Benefits when i hear this song
same haha mad good movie
***** lesson learned from that movie "if theres a chance she could be it, you fix it" haha love that movie
sameeddttt
samee
I think of "the office"
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.

These guys have such good control over their voices
their perfect blending in the chorus is so lovely to the ears.
time to go back to my classic goot music 🙂
Just finished watching Friends with Benefits. This song is classic yet AWESOME. ☺
One of my favorite songs...and this is an awesome cover :)
Great job guys ! Really nice voices, excellent harmony & you really committed your energy.
I don't know if you guys feel like this, but when i just listen to this song it just puts me in a good mood and makes my problems disappear
I never heard that song before, and once I heard it I did not care for it, but that song means it's time to go home. Now, it's my favorite song.
i thought of this when they were singing this on the office episode - perfect timing :)
Man...The mood is just the best listening to your songs. In New York too? When I go, I'm definitely listening to this song.
This entire song makes you dread that it has to end.
You guys are SO AMAZING. Your voices are so soft and wonderful together.
I am Goot

so whos playing the drums?what trickery is this
+Pat Naidoo No trickery. SORCERY!
By the sounds of it, it's a Cajon and a tambourine so my conclusion is that a 3 armed invisible man is doing the percussion
+dombledawe

WHY THE FUCK DOES IT MATTER
Thatdude122100 no. Its called harmonizing. Pretty much all bands do it
Wyatt Chappell SOMEONE WHO KNOWS WHAT THEIR TALKING ABOUT! I do recordings for vocals and this is the best effect you can use to get the perfect sound.
Thanks for telling everybody 😁😁
you both have the most incredible sounding voices. so relaxed. SO easy to listen to.
Yes, there is auto tune. No, there isn't any auto tune. I frankly don't give a shit and I seriously hate it when I see people posting it all over you tube comment sections. (this is just my rage opinion though)
you are too cute to be angry :)
I know you won't give a shit about this but this in fact has been Auto-Tuned.
Scott Brady Alright -_- I guess I just like auto tune then ;p
Michael Wilson How would you know if it's auto-tuned, I can't hear it, seems natural to me.
I love this song! Beautiful voices. Wow.
Im hearing on 2021
By far my favorite version of this song and my favorite from you! Love it so much, and you two sound great together

Edit:only true office fans will understand why I commented this on this song.
You could have only seen one episode of the Office and understood your comment.
discovered you in 2006 and your music/skills just gets better and better. you are the man Alex Goot
I thought by now most people understood this song wasn't about a bar closing. I guess autotune can't fix everything.
100% about a bar closing
Have you read the lyrics?
Poplicola08 It says (100% life lesson)
Youre right. Its about his daughter being born. Most people don't know that though lol
Great thanks guys...my favorite song and two of my top 5 TH-camrs in one video...my computer with crash with how many times I replay this...
I just sicked in my mouth a little bit.... way to take a really nice song and turn it into everything that sucks about music these days guys. If you had done this live, with feeling, it may have been a different story.
Man, thank you for this little time travel! Even the B-Roll felt like a time i really miss
this is a cover... it shouldn't be on the list
this guy is brilliant. since i discovered him early this year i only listen to his covers on my ipod.

This is one of my new favorite songs and my absolute favorite cover!!

4me wat ruins the songR these 2flamers murdering a semisonic cover...horribly
This song is so meaning full and I loved this.
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 is wank.
Bijinius Cross
My favorite cover by Mr Goot and Mr Sugg hands down
This one makes the original seem "off" somehow.
It feels a lot gentler than the original, which I honestly kinda like more.
wtf is this????
This is my absolute favourite song of all time. You have brought something different to it that is still pretty great. I love it.
ugh that chorus sounds so overproduced and awful
i am not crying i just got dust in my eyes beautiful! alex goot!
It's semi sonic... But gayer...
exactly
Pfrizzle 101 bluntly but more chiller... I think.
Oliver Lee that means you're gay
I'd say more hipster.
Semifaggot*
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.
CLosing Time Gay Version
Someone had to say it. It's just a terrible cover. Go do yellowcard or some other emo cover.
byspanky
How is it gay .-.?
No friggin way; this is the ish.
😂😂😂😂
HAHAHAHAHA
I love this song !
Chad Sugg and Alex Goot make an awesome duo !
Too unnatural. Less auto tune please
