I love their eye contact game when singing together (mid mic) 2:14 First Emily tries to find Sarah's eyes, then Sara, then Emily... till they finally find each other and smile!!! Seen it like a million times, so cute... :)
I'm honestly probably at least a thousand of these views im sooo in love with this cover :) these two need to do more stuff together
that is the mightyest rockin uke solo ever
I sat in on a small set with Rivers singing this song acoustic and I got just as many shivers watching this... Kudos.
This is wicked !! Both your voices are magic
I love Weezer and I love this cover. Some people get too hyped up over stuff that has nothing to do with them. Covers are tributes to bands that you admire and this is a great tribute to Weezer.
+Shannon Ecco they are sitting laughing and smiling while singing these lyrics, kinda grosses me out
+Shannon Ecco I haven't been able to stand Weezer in years; I blame the radio for overplaying the shit out of the Sweater Song. But this is a great cover and a great tribute.
Brad Simpson I know right haha
+Brad Simpson this statement wouldn't be possible if you'd wake up and stop listening to commercial sheeple radio, I suppose you like a computer telling you what to listen to?
Dave Lee I suppose it's possible that you might not be old enough to remember the days before the Internet. In those days, we listened to the radio on the way to and from work, and popular songs got overplayed all the time. If you talk to any of us old dinosaurs, we'll all be able to tell you about a song or two that started out really good, but was absolutely ruined by being overplayed on the radio.
I've never heard a Uke hooked up to a distortion pedal. So happy right now.
Man, I have playlist that are just hours of WOTE/Sarah/Gianni and I still keep coming across songs I haven't heard/seen before!
Omg! I love you Sarah! Tearin it up on that electric ukulele.
Wow, all the opinions about singing with or without the right emotion... I just enjoy hearing them sing, watching them play good music, learning a new song (for me) and discovering the artist who wrote the song.
An electric distorted ukulele, woah! :)
I love the harmony of you two are singing together, it's glorious! :)
Sarah is pure talent! incredible walk of the earth! Beautiful musical fusion with your friend !!
I'm not really into the ukulele, but damn that was good! Especially with that fuzz!
My favorite part is when Emily repositions her glasses while singing "try to be cool" totally cool....I love her!
LOL, She did that with a freaking ukelele.
I discovered WOTE last Thursday. This weekend, a few old friends who all worked together with me on the crew for a band in the '80s got together at my place. We ended up in my studio watching WOTE videos for hours and hours! The word we all agreed on that best describes your music and videos is "mesmerizing" - the talent, the creativity, the performance, the instruments, and especially the voices. Of the covers, my faves are "I Knew You Were Trouble" and THIS one here. Sarah and Emily are simply adorable, and harmonize wickedly together. The fuzz on the uke was simply brilliant, too much fun! I have played this video at least a dozen times (today). Pulled out my acoustic bass and jammed right along with you ladies. I've always been pretty lazy about singing and playing bass, because it's difficult for me, singing while playing guitar is a lot easier. I think jamming with 2 beautiful musicians like Sarah and Emily just might be the kind of incentive this old dog needs to learn a new trick ;)
Show me anywhere else on TH-cam where you can find a cover of this solo on a distorted Ukulele
I know Im kinda off topic but does anybody know of a good site to watch new series online?
@Reuben Rex lately I have been using Flixzone. You can find it on google =)
@Idris Devon yea, been watching on Flixzone for months myself :)
@Idris Devon Definitely, been watching on FlixZone for months myself :)
@Idris Devon Thanks, signed up and it seems to work :) I appreciate it !!
I usualy don't get goosebumbs listening to a song but this... it's just wow!
beautiful cover ladies :D
Addicted to this video... just awesomeness in it's pride and glory!
2:45
i nearly fell off my chair. that was a nice surprise. did not expect that.
Sarah B and Emily B in a duet? Life = complete. I absolutely love this cover. Well done, ladies, well done.
That is a big cat.
Oh, and you make great covers too.
I need to edit this to say you make great MUSIC. Not just covers.
Edward Starsmith Do that by clicking the circle with the upside-down triangle on the far-right of your name in the comment you want to edit.
Gotta go with you on this though. Big ass cat :D And amazing music! Saw them live once. One of my favourite concerts so far!
Uhhh the cat says STI..... :/ poor kitty lol
Your voices are gifts to humanity! What a great rendition of this song.
There's so much hate comments! :c I thought was a lovely cover! ^ u ^ well done girls :D 💖
I litterly listen to Sarah Blackwood for hours LOVE HER .
Who is ready for a Bones and Blackwood tour?? I am.
I love it when people who are actually talented play and sing. I for one am not skilled vocally or with instruments, so I stay away from doing it myself! You guys are awesome keep the music coming!!!
I don't think there is anything wrong with the ukulele but I do believe they are way too happy for the mood of the song
It's a cover. They can do what ever they want with it
+Gabriel N who are you to say freedom of creativity and expression isn't right ?
+Jackie QB because it's almost insulting to the band and the person who went through the experience that is outlined in the song. Don't get me wrong, they have beautiful voices but it just isn't right.
+Gabriel N If you don't like it you don't have to watch it.
+Jackie QB how was I supposed to know that I wouldn't like it before I watched it?
I'm a fan of this cover, and I'm a fan of both Emily Bones and Sarah Blackwood. they are both very talented singers and musicians
Dottie.
It's my bro's cat.
Well loved. Like our furry chubbers. Indoor cats is sposed to be fatses.
Two of the cutest girls in music, and Sarah rocked that uke like none other!
Hey Sarah (which btw is the best name on the planet ever.), whats the chance you can do an instrumental of "Say It Ain't So" with Emily Bone? I would very much like to see one! Also, can you do a "Happy Christmas" cover this year? You can just make that my gift. (; lol Thanks!
Can't. Stop. Listening. To. The. Beautiful. Music.
This song is about an uncle's abusive habit of alcohol... and the lyrics are mournful as hell... Why do you guys look so happy singing this?
It's a good cover just the intent of the song never got through in this
like a someboody
It's about rivers thinking her parents were gonna divorce, hence the first like because his dad HAD an alcohol addiction so he thought it was gonna come back
Well, as you can see, they're just having fun
They look happy because they like the song. I play an instrument (the drums) and the feeling I get from the pounding of bass drum, or the sound of the snare is absolutely fantastic. I don't know if you play an instrument, but when you play a song that you like it feels wonderful. Of course they look happy, music is awesome.
Emily reminds me of Lisa Loab. :) OMG, I am in LOVE with this version!
that distortion tho.
Ikr XD
SHAYWARDS BROUGHT ME HERE. Boy when Shay said Sarah Blackwood was talented he wasn't kidding! This was absolutely amazing! Really made me smile:D
I'll make a delicious sandwich... AND EAT IT. *dramatic bite*
HOLLYYYYYYY SHHIIIIIII-----
I've always loved Sarah's voice, but Emily's voice is just as awesome! Time to check out the Anti-Queens.
I hate these fucking Ukulele covers where the cover artists don't understand anything about the song or the simple fact that it is not a happy song, at all.
It comes across as extremely ignorant and insensitive when you're taking such a dark and personal subject that Rivers writes the song about and then have these two take the song and go through it smiling and laughing with each other.
I don't get.
First of all, where's your cover? Why are you hating on the ukulele?
Also, this wouldn't have been recorded and reproduced if the owner of the copyright to the song didn't approve it. So, next time you decide to bitch about something and only know half the story, perhaps you should contact the owner of the song and ask them instead of typing up a long spiel on TH-cam with so much hatred.
And on a side note, it's apparent you've never had the joy of "jamming" or playing music with anyone other than your MP3 player. They are smiling because they enjoy the music and laughing most likely because there are people in the background and might be slightly distracting causing them to laugh.
WOTE is a great cover band and they also write their own material. They are artists. You're just a critic.
Michael Stanton It's just my opinion don't be mad.
Coffeey I'm not mad. Just stating my opinion with some fact as well. Nothing more.
U Str8 Jelly bro
Thanks coffeey - I was just about to write the same!
SARAH great voice!! Emily even! INCREDIBLE HARMONY BETWEEN YOU TWO...i'd like so much to find someone to sing with so well...YOU'RE LOVELY. i'm gonna follow you on your channel
why people hating?
If I were to guess, it's cause this isn't quite the portrayal on this song that they were looking for, originally with this song being about Rivers worried about what drinking would do to his family, because his real Dad left him around the time he started drinking and now his step father is drinking, so it scared him, so the song sounded dark, depressed and angered, as this one kinda changes the meaning I guess? (not really sure how), and it's a lot more up beat and uplifting then the original.
cause peopple answer haters soo they get more vewers and more likes hahahaah human stupidity has no limits
Hey Sarah and Emily, That sounded so great, loved the change to power ukulele and back to the smooth pickin', The change to the shared mike was a great sound also. Perfect harmony with your voices. Best to you in life, Texasroper
interesting take on a great song. I'm all for experimentation and making the song sound your own, but the cheery mood seems to take out the serious and touching feel the song is supposed to have. but meh 7.5/10
I would not have guessed that i would like a distorted uke that much...one of my favorite weezer songs and a totally rad cover...
you forgot the intro
i could listen to this all day every day...
And there ain't a damned thing wrong with Ukulele.
God speed sir.
I'm just shouting "ANOTHER!!!" and throwing my empty glass (recently filled with beer) on the floor!
i like your interpretation of the song. I'd like to give you both a compliment with a music quote of one of my favorite artist:
"Now who'd have thought that after all,
something as simple as rock 'n' roll would save us all."
Better than the original IMHO.
I could fall in love for the love of music!
Beautiful cover. You guys look like you're having a good time playing. Maybe a little too smiley for a song that is about alcoholism destroying a family. Just sayin.
I love listening to this song on the the radio, thanks so much for presenting it to youtube in your own angelic version ♥
Best example of a remake being better than the original since Johnny Cash did Hurt.
hahahahah
Hahahahahaaa
LOL NAH
Wouldn't call it better. Still good though!
ahaha, aren't you adorable :D
I got chills throughout the whole song... awesome
To me this just sounded like two friends messing around, trying to make everything sound as pretty as possible. That's fine and all, but I couldn't get any emotion from the cover because of it. Probably just me being a grouch lol.
I totally agree. Say it ain't so is a really deep song with undertones of depression and anger. How in the world these two chicks managed to make it sound poppy and lovey-dovey is beyond me. It's almost like they just memorized the lyrics and didn't actually understand them.
Likewise.But who am I to criticize an artist. Just their portrayal of the song I guess. I'm gonna go listen to the original now...
Colette Le Bienvenu I actually find the original to sound fairly upbeat and whimsical considering the subject material. It certainly doesn't sound angry or depressed. This is actually really common in music. Pumped Up Kicks comes to mind but that is just one other example.
This song ALWAYS gets stuck in my head all day when I listen to it. LOVE IT!!!!
This is just not how the song's meant to be. It's about Rivers' struggle with having not one but TWO alcoholic father figures and major abandonment issues. A ukulele and a couple of hipsters just can't get the emotions of that across.
Jay Hard Music is expressed differently by each person, it means something different to them. Appreciate variety or leave planet Earth.
Ashton Ellis I would very gladly accept option 2.
Jay Hard Sweet, which planet are you thinking of occupying?
Mars. I will take an independent voyage, and claim much of the planet forcing those government turdheads the most undesirable of land.
Ashton Ellis This comment could have pwned had it said appreciate variety or walk off the earth.
So much talent. Tears to the eyes.
Earphones on. Chillin. thanks ladies. by the way Im 50. still works for me. Awsome solo
Man, she can't wait. She's pregnant, she's got craaaaavings! Also, singing like angels tends to make you hungry.
Why am I just now discovering this!!!???!? amazing duet amazing cover
To everyone saying they changed the mood of the song - the video makes me feel that way because they're smiling at each other and obviously enjoying playing together...but if I'm listening without watching the video, their vocals sound incredibly melancholy.
Wonderful job ladies, I can tell you put so much thought into the harmonies. It's flawless.
They are both great singers!!!!! And GREAT on instruments!!!
This just became my new favorite cover of this song!
played this song for my BTEC and GCSE (did both cause I could) and Good Distinction/A for both playing this love the song and Good to see Sarah Playing Music with other artists.
AH THEIR VOICES SOUND LIKE BUTTERFLIES DANCING TOGETHER ♥ ♥ ♥
Loves is sarah sung along the whole time. One of my favorite songs
You OWN Your Instrument Sarah ! Totally Wicked !!! Woooooooooooo
I can play this song. When my band covers it, and I go into the solo at the end, or the single bends in the 2nd and 3rd chorus, I look to my band mates and smile. Because those parts are bad ass and we nailed it. The fact they covered it and know how to play that song (even the solo on a uke) is dope af. That shows way more respect and fandom then you knowing the back story of it. Blah, I love it. Props ladies, you kicked ass. Never heard a distorted uke before haha sick.
Great song, great voices, you girls are awesome!
I love walk off the earth so do my children always such amazing vibe from the song's and never fail to put me and the kid's into great moods :-) x
you make me want to cry your so amazing sarah blakwood!
Found Walk Off the Earth and Sarah's different TH-cam channels last week. Totally helping me with some late night work! So creative! This is one of my favs - great Weezer mash.

This is why i Love Sarah nobody ROCKS the ukelele quite like she does! Who rocks weezer on the uke with distortion? Love it!
Love Emily and the Anti-Queens!
