I've been binging Letterkenny for the past few days and I never thought that the same series that made me laugh at "Canada Goose" would choke me up with a somber song and a smiling Squirrely Dan
Letterkenny brought me here. This is a gorgeous version of Judee Sill’s amazing song. It took me down a Judee Sill rabbit hole! I came of age in the 70’s yet Judee’s brilliance evaded me then....only to be a gem, now newly discovered. Of all the covers, including Mama Cass!, this is my favorite and loved it in the show.
I saw Judee perform this live, twice, at the Troubadour in the early 70s, opening for Jimmy Webb. The second time, we went back just to see Judee. She was magically talented, funny and charismatic. Much later I found out we had practically been neighbors. She would have been a hoot to know.
Frida Hyvönen does an excellent, absolutely excellent, version of this wonderful Judee Sill song. Bravo for keeping Sill's stunning melody alive with such emotion.
This is straight up gold and amazing. I've heard it several times over the years but right now it is blasting me across all cosmic dimensions... Thank you Frida and Judee and everyone else involved.
100% agree with ya. Pell, Frida Hyvönen, Tune-Yards, Fake Shark Real Zombie, Seven Lions have all been Letterkenny discoveries. I'd say its been one of the most consistent shows for great music
This is so.....calming and peaceful. I had a super rough day, and this came on, and now I feel some peace...thank you..for singing my gloom away. Professor Dewey L.
Everyone is talking about Judee Sill. I'll be honest and say I never knew either of them till this episode. I will also say I heard Nirvanas Man Who Sold The World before David Bowie's. I prefer Nirvanas cover and I prefer this cover. Each to their own at the end of the day
Just heard this amazing song on the Minx last nite.. moved to tears by Sills voice and lyrics.. have to check out Letterkenny now.. amazing song.. how is it I never heard it before on my 70 years on this planet ...
first time I heard this sang by Cass Elliot then I listened to the writer of the song Judee Sill. What a fantastic melody to really cool lyrics. Just an outright soulful pretty song
In what world, the orchestration is so basic here and recording techniques strange and uncanny with double tracking coming in out of nowhere at the second verse. Tempo is painfully slow and they still insist on some rubato slowdowns. 3rd verse piano accompaniment does some ridiculous ragtime shit, and overall the mix is not as cohesive as the original. Further, the piano arrangement is more basic than what Judee Sill originally played. What a strange comment for you to make...
@taildragger51 That's a brilliant idea. Youre right, she has the ideal voice. Don't suppose she ever will though. I still think the best version is the original, Judee Sill. You can hear the emotion.
Never would have expected to hear a Judee Sill cover in Letterkenny, caught me off guard. Jared Keeso is a fucking indie music nerd. I still prefer the original song though.
wargrave232 is so right. i love frida's other stuff, but it's almost like she didn't take the time to figure out the song's real chords...judee used a lot of chords in inversion and things that are hard to work out by ear.
@@charleslsegal Doctor, we have found the problem! Your fun quote implies that you apparently are using your EYES to determine the increased “beauty” of this cover version, when what you should be using are your EARS! 🤣Just kidding. But seriously, when the comments and 👍 are 80% in favor OF THIS COVER VERSION, perhaps the 20% who behold a vastly outvoted opinion should reconsider their mistake. 🤷 Enjoy either version, they both are nice!
sorry, but this is musical butchery, the piano harmony is a really poor version of the rich and majestic harmonic setting of the original. Fine voice, but this is a completely different song, light years below the original.
You sings a good song, and that's what I appreciates abouts you
Is THAT what you appreciate about me?
Hard yes.
Let's take about 20% off over there Squirrely Dan
Lol for thia whole thread.
Well said!:)
Big shoutout to Letterkenny for introducing me to this...
Frida ferda!
Werd letterkennys music is really unique and they do a great job of picking the last thing youd expect to be used while it fits amazingly.
@@anonymous5909 I completely agree.
Chase Brooks I'm so happy... No one ever says yes when I ask them if they've seen letterkenny!
Can confirm.
Lets take about 5 to 10 percent off there, Squirrelly Dan
Oh yeah. Hey! Look at you ground. 😂
@Jane Nonymous fuck can he run.
That’s a Texas-sized 10-4, good buddy.
To be fair...
Truly one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard....and thats whats I appreciates abouts it
It was written in 1971 or 1972 by Judee Sill.
And The Kiss is even more beautiful
and thats what i appreciate about you, now give your a b*lls a tug and get after it
Oh is that what you appreciate about it?
@@thiswilldude Let's take about 15% off there BradDanyluk
Just binged Letterkenny. Watching and realized how beautiful this song is. Man they picked great music.
i didnt ever expect to tear up watching this show but damn
I've been binging Letterkenny for the past few days and I never thought that the same series that made me laugh at "Canada Goose" would choke me up with a somber song and a smiling Squirrely Dan
Those are fucking Canada Gooses... Those are Canada's fucking Gooses.
Majestic
*smashes beer bottle in rage*
Get after it, Squirrelly Dan.
Pitter patter....

I was listening to this song with my pals the other dayy

lucky fella.
I envy you twice!
amazing!
She was totally a hoot to know! And I think she would have liked you.
A men
Frida...ferda!!
Wheel, snipe, celly!
Fell in absolute love with this song thanks to Letter Kenny.
Moved to tears by Sqirrelly Dan's face and this song on Letterkenny!?!?! "What sorta backward fuckin' pageantry is that????"
Yeah I cried too
Yep.
same here.
Me too! 💖😊😌
I never knews this song but I'm glad I founds it
You were out chorin' the other day when this song came on you see...
I like this stripped down version. It sounds more yearning and vulnerable. She has a gorgeous voice!
The original by Judee Sill was stripped down !
Someone make Amazon music or Spotify add this song now!!!!!!
No
To Be Faaaaair, LetterKenny Brought me here! Awesome Show Awesome Song
My favorite version of this song. So beautiful. ❤
That's what I appreciates about yous miss Katies
Frida Hyvönen does an excellent, absolutely excellent, version of this wonderful Judee Sill song.
Bravo for keeping Sill's stunning melody alive with such emotion.
Indeed, Judee Sill flies low like a silver angel, and they say that we Scandinavians lacks Spirituality...
@@erikwesterberg7220 - Not with Frida on your side. Wonderful vocalist.
This is straight up gold and amazing. I've heard it several times over the years but right now it is blasting me across all cosmic dimensions... Thank you Frida and Judee and everyone else involved.
I love the fact all the comments are letterkenny related
I'm really rootin for ya dan, but go ahead and summit mt what's yer point
I'm a huge Judee fan, and I love this version. Makes me want to sing along
They had this song playing in end credits of Dyck’s Slip Out, a good way to tease the song
I've been looking for this forever, I love this version most
1 of the most beautiful sounds I've ever heard! All glory to The King I call my only Father
Simply amazing :) Beautiful Frida.
Letterkenny introduced me to this. Not sure who lines up the tunes for the show? But well done. On my way to itunes to search Frida Hyvönen
Letterkenny played the hollies version of the song on he show.
100% agree with ya. Pell, Frida Hyvönen, Tune-Yards, Fake Shark Real Zombie, Seven Lions have all been Letterkenny discoveries. I'd say its been one of the most consistent shows for great music
@@stonesfan1989 Air Ball, they played Frida.
@@NarykXD don’t forget Joel Plaskett Emergency, Deadly Snakes, Chains of Love and Harmonium. They do play some excellent music on LK.
@@stonesfan1989 airball
This is way better than I thought it was going to be when I clicked on it. Quite nice!
gorgeous rendering....by far my favorite version of the song.......
pure beauty ! Thank you Frida xxx
Wow what a cover! Such a beautiful powerful voice
I really appreciate the original. Yet this version and her voice do not only a stellar job but total justice to the original. 🎉
Excellent, excellent arrangement. Beautiful.
Thanks to letterkenny for showing me this
Heartbreakingly beautiful, like the original.
This is a Judee Sill song, a flawlessly beautiful artist.
Thank you Jared Keeso. And Letterkenny.
not an easy song to cover. I love the original but Frida has given me so many epic moments too. Viva la Sverige !!
This is so.....calming and peaceful. I had a super rough day, and this came on, and now I feel some peace...thank you..for singing my gloom away. Professor Dewey L.
Why is this not on Spotify?
Yeah, You're looking for a couple of puck-heads driving a Tonka truck.
I think you posted to the wrong video.
KuptisOriginal I think you posted to the wrong video.
Has anyone seen our little Dicks?
Ya it doesn't get any better than this does it folk's . God bless all of ya
man frida should've been bigger, she has one of the most powerful voices out there...
Everyone is talking about Judee Sill. I'll be honest and say I never knew either of them till this episode. I will also say I heard Nirvanas Man Who Sold The World before David Bowie's. I prefer Nirvanas cover and I prefer this cover. Each to their own at the end of the day
Favorite episode of Letterkenney. An homage to handmaid’s tale! And with J Rock, too!
Cannot believe did not spot the J-Rock. Crossover episode!!!! The best. Knew there was something lovable and mischievous about that pious man :)
whiskey and this song makes me cry...
Stunning cover
Just heard this amazing song on the Minx last nite.. moved to tears by Sills voice and lyrics.. have to check out Letterkenny now.. amazing song.. how is it I never heard it before on my 70 years on this planet ...
This is not Sills original, but I feel its even deeper.
first time I heard this sang by Cass Elliot then I listened to the writer of the song Judee Sill. What a fantastic melody to really cool lyrics. Just an outright soulful pretty song
Beautiful
Judee Sill RIP beautiful soul ❤️🙏✝️
LETTERKENNY FANS UNITE!

This song was good to me and my community, once
Beautiful cover my dear
so beautiful
Interesting version of the Judee Sill song. Rest in peace Judee xxx
Cass Elliot did an amazing cover of this song.
i don't know if its because of Letterkenny but i like the slower tempo better than the original by Judee Sill ..
Ya'll fellow Letterkenny lovers..make sure you check out the OG version. This one is superior but it's worth a listen.
Great one
Brilliant
YEW!
Letter Kenny!!
Who else is here because of a couple missing Dycks?
wondrous
Check out mama Cass Elliott's version it's on TH-cam.
So much better than the original.
Agree

Thanks Griffin
I first heard this by The Hollies. I'll do some research and see what it actually means.
a touch of Joni Mitchell in her voice.
To what do I owe the pleasure of being double Dycked?
Miss Lovenas Dycks
Why on earth you were given negative feedback for that comment escapes me, you're right.
Tic toc ....
Why don't they ever follow up with Lavina and Squirrely Dan's romance???❤😢
Love you Judee
Fuck can they run
We can all agree that Jesus wasn’t a cross maker right?

Dirty fuckin" dangels boys!!!
Sorry, this version lacks the magic of the original by the late Judee Sill. Mama Cass version not that greateither.
Were you going through all the versions too? hahaha.
Don't agree at all. I find Judees version a bit boresome
Not even close … this version is better in pretty much every way.
@@allucht6664 beauty is in the eye of the beholder…..

Judee would puke on it
I've never WANTED autotune on a song before this.

Boring
bothersome mannerist singing. abuse, no respect
So clueless. This version is sung with much more sorrow then flips the script with uplifting, ethereal notes yearning for heaven.
