I emailed Jeffrey asking if he ever got sugar in his tea, and this is what he replied: "Hi Daniel! Thanks for the pix! Geez, I don't remember whether I had sugar in my tea that time, I usually don't so the answer was PROBABLY no, but sometimes, maybe just like a couple times a year, I'll do it with sugar, so there's a chance I might have said yes. Hi from NYC! Jeffrey"
+Mette Lauridsen I take that as a huge compliment xD but really its jeff whos awesome for daning to answer such a silly question. He's also signed really nice hand drawn potraits and stuff my girlfriend took to a show. one time we offered him acid at UC Irvine as a joke lmao
Absolutely classic !!! One of coolest story’s I ever heard Daniel !! Laura Marling is brilliant also . I got turned on to her music from this song also
I scrolled down here to say that - it just popped up on my YT shuffle and I thought it was a Jeffrey song I hadn't heard before until it hit the chorus. They share the same sense of dark humor, although in different directions.
I love that Jeff can see the beauty and the art in rap music even though he's a big anti-folk prodigy. I hate it when people don't listen to rap music say that there's no art in it, but I hate it when people only listen to rap music as well. My philosophy is that you should consume as much art and expressive media as you can. Some of my favorite artists are Foxy Shazam, Jeffrey Lewis, Busta Rhymes, Miles Davis, One Direction, Meat Loaf, Edith Piaf and Franz Liszt. Just listen. Understand.
pretty amazing video, does anyone please know the chords jeff's playing?? and if there is a capo involved??? quite sure theres not but you never know this would help millions of people accross the world thankyou
Wow, I mean Jeffrey Lewis AND Laura Marling!? Who thought of that!? =D Tbh though I much prefer Jeff, there is something about Laura I am unsure of. I like some of her songs but, I'm not sure, to me she seemed like she wanted to get outta there ^ ... Just my thoughts; It was a good listen :)
For some odd reason, I've always felt a similarity between Jeff and Eminem. Never could pinpoint it, but it seemed right in a wrong way, haha. I'm sleepy.
I can agree with that, it is nice she takes it seriously. I wouldn't want her to do things to please the audience, but maybe connect with us a little more.
I see you're point, I had noticed that previously, I wonder how she is with NATW nowadays. That is also a good point, it is nice she doesn't put it on, I would just have thought she would be happier; she obviously has a passion for her music, but maybe she is indeed concentrating. Well I'll start listening to more of her songs; I mean you cant really know what someones personality is without knowing them, its also nice she has sensible fans that can have a mature debate; which I appreciate!
can someone tell me what he means when he says he screwed up the chord in the middle? I couldn't hear anything that sounded like a screw up. This is brilliant btw.
I find it hard to explain but having listened to some more of her songs, I find them so likeable, but yet I find laura the opposite. I mean I have been watching alot of her live shows, and she doesnt really seem to smile on any of them when playing. It's just a kinda vibe I get, maybe it's snobbery? I am not sure. I mean no offense to Laura and her fans, I happen to be one of them, I just find it hard to like music by an artist I feel that maybe isnt nice in personality. Hope this helps? :)
I have the huge crush on Laura Marling & I think Jeffrey does too thats also why I felt like he was nervous singing with her . She is beautiful & her music is brilliant 💯
Okay two things: one, when I saw that Jeffrey Lewis and Laura Marling were covering Eminem, I thought it was going to be way more hilarious. Two, I love Laura Marling, but she looks and sounds bored as hell.
Oh hahaha. She still didn't sound very enthused, but if she doesn't really know the song, it'd be hard to give a fully emotive performance for a song that you don't even have memorized.
What a lost opportunity! She is terrible. Sorry, but she is just reading words. Jeff is a natural performer. She is talented, but in this case she really doesn't understand what she is doing. On a dare? Reluctant? They could do another take with a different conspirator.
I emailed Jeffrey asking if he ever got sugar in his tea, and this is what he replied:

Hi from NYC!

+Daniel Safety Renegade i'm so happy people like you exist!
+Mette Lauridsen I take that as a huge compliment xD but really its jeff whos awesome for daning to answer such a silly question. He's also signed really nice hand drawn potraits and stuff my girlfriend took to a show. one time we offered him acid at UC Irvine as a joke lmao
He is a damn fine example of what a human being can be.
Absolutely classic !!! One of coolest story’s I ever heard Daniel !! Laura Marling is brilliant also . I got turned on to her music from this song also
Mette Lauridsen me too I told Daniel that was one of the coolest stories I ever heard !
My dad has this cover on a random cd and I always thought it was the original
your dad's pretty cool, tbh
True your dad is deff legit to listen to this song ! 🤙🏽
Your dad sounds awesome lol
Good for you lol
this totally sounds like something Jeffrey would write too, perfect song to cover
I scrolled down here to say that - it just popped up on my YT shuffle and I thought it was a Jeffrey song I hadn't heard before until it hit the chorus. They share the same sense of dark humor, although in different directions.
It sounds so punky performed like this.
I never thought Eminem would sound so beautiful. Jeffrey has got to be one of the most talented musicians out there.
Reminds me of the Mouldy Peaches!
Did you ever check the bundles stuff he did with kimya and crew?
@Dustin Rogers so are the rest of the letters if you don't care who you are talking about.
Caught Jeffrey lewis playing with someone from the moldy peaches on drums this year
These are my two favorite artists. EVER. This is now my new favorite song. EVER.
I LOVE THESE GUYS! THIS IS MY SONG .STORY OF LIFE ! THANX ALWAYS CHEERS ME UP. LOVE .PEACE AND UNITY .MAX. LIVERPOOL. ENGLAND.. EARTH
I have hugest crush on Laura Marling 💟 she’s just brilliant & beautiful , I’d love to meet a girl like her someday

Me too , Laura & Jeffrey are just brilliant 💟💯
This is Godly I am sooo glad i bumped on this !! Excellent job guys
How on Earth did this pair come to be in a room together? Love it.
I love the way she sings "Mr Lewis, the fun and games are over."
incredible Jeffrey Lewis.
Still listening in 2023! 😁
This could legitimately be a Jeff song.
would never have guessed this was eminem!? no way! this is an excellent cover, totally changes everything.
:O Laura is amazing, whose this other guy?!?!? hes pretty awesome too!
I love that Jeff can see the beauty and the art in rap music even though he's a big anti-folk prodigy. I hate it when people don't listen to rap music say that there's no art in it, but I hate it when people only listen to rap music as well.

Some of my favorite artists are Foxy Shazam, Jeffrey Lewis, Busta Rhymes, Miles Davis, One Direction, Meat Loaf, Edith Piaf and Franz Liszt. Just listen. Understand.
I enjoy all those artist as well , but my busta Rymes days have ended just doesn’t stimulate my senses anymore
I so like your comment, I couldn't resist to answer to add Bach, Magma, Elvis, Jacques Brel, Tom Waits :)
It's been a while since I heard Jeffrey Lewis.. sighs! So long! So long! How did TH-cam know?

OMG VERY WELL DONE LOVE IT
Haha the tea! That's so english, i miss that country so much...

and if there is a capo involved??? quite sure theres not but you never know

lol "Shut up Mum!"
Wow, I mean Jeffrey Lewis AND Laura Marling!? Who thought of that!? =D
Tbh though I much prefer Jeff, there is something about Laura I am unsure of. I like some of her songs but, I'm not sure, to me she seemed like she wanted to get outta there ^
... Just my thoughts; It was a good listen :)
Holy bleep that's diverse! Awesome!
DAMN. that time you find the best video on the internet
For some odd reason, I've always felt a similarity between Jeff and Eminem. Never could pinpoint it, but it seemed right in a wrong way, haha. I'm sleepy.
This is perfect, as if they can actually make an eminem song good!
I can agree with that, it is nice she takes it seriously. I wouldn't want her to do things to please the audience, but maybe connect with us a little more.
Oh no, Ill never know if Jeff has sugar in his tea!
I see you're point, I had noticed that previously, I wonder how she is with NATW nowadays.
That is also a good point, it is nice she doesn't put it on, I would just have thought she would be happier; she obviously has a passion for her music, but maybe she is indeed concentrating.

@billodditty C, Am, F, G, without capo. or other chords if you play with capo... dunno why that would matter either way tho..
I love the title of the video :D
can someone tell me what he means when he says he screwed up the chord in the middle? I couldn't hear anything that sounded like a screw up. This is brilliant btw.
It is brilliant I agree 💯
I'm so glad I found this
i LOVE laura marling. but JLL writes some of the best songs i've ever heard.
adorei
Can relate
this is awesome
RATED
This is fucking beautiful
did that guy at the end ask if he wanted sugar in his tea? you brits!...adorable
What have you done to this brilliant song... can't stop hating it!
Amazing! HAHA
Laura Marling I love you
This is absolutely hilarious. I can't stop laughing at this.
i came thats how good it is
my favourite part is the Frankenstein reference :)
I find it hard to explain but having listened to some more of her songs, I find them so likeable, but yet I find laura the opposite. I mean I have been watching alot of her live shows, and she doesnt really seem to smile on any of them when playing. It's just a kinda vibe I get, maybe it's snobbery? I am not sure.
I mean no offense to Laura and her fans, I happen to be one of them, I just find it hard to like music by an artist I feel that maybe isnt nice in personality. Hope this helps? :)
Not to put a finer point on it say I'm the only bee in your bonnet.....
laura marling is so damn beautiful
I think the sand in his raspy voice gives it an unmanufactured, rootsy touch.. like it was made by real individuals and not producers.
This would have been perfect had they not censored it. Dx
Is that Charlie Fink's voice at the end?
Lmao 😂 very clever observation
I love Laura, I love Eminem, GOSH I LOVE THIS.
but honestly, i think the melody sounds too funny and cheerful to these sad lyrics...
That’s kind of typical with JL
This is so weird :L Did they ever actually release it?
WAIT
WHEN
WAHT
AEHHHHHHHHHHHHH
*jizz*
Nothing is better tahn this/ n othing
@daryl3965 Yes it does.
does anyone know what chords he's using ? x
+Christie Gardner (it's cool i worked it out-- for anyone that wants it's C Am F and G) xo
@@noseywintonian lol cool
She says "What's the matter?", so posh.
I have the huge crush on Laura Marling & I think Jeffrey does too thats also why I felt like he was nervous singing with her . She is beautiful & her music is brilliant 💯
See, the lyrcis of this song are actually quite good, but you can't really appreciate it through eminem. Laura marling makes everything better.
Does Jeff have sugar in his tea?!?!
anyone know the chords for this?
lovely cover but the ethos of the original i do feel is missing
Fuck this, I need to know if he takes sugar in his tea!!!!!
gangsta
ledgend
anyone happen to know the chords he uses? :)
CM - am - CM - am - CM - am - FM - GM for the whole song. He uses B as a passing tone between C and a almost every time descending as well.
Who cares. She's concentrating on her music. She's more of a serious musician rather than an entertainer.
Mom scares
EVERYTHING ELISE PAGE SAYS!
It's not great but I still really enjoy it
Okay two things: one, when I saw that Jeffrey Lewis and Laura Marling were covering Eminem, I thought it was going to be way more hilarious. Two, I love Laura Marling, but she looks and sounds bored as hell.
+Matthew Fodell I thought she looked bored and then I realised she's looking down at lyrics!
Oh hahaha. She still didn't sound very enthused, but if she doesn't really know the song, it'd be hard to give a fully emotive performance for a song that you don't even have memorized.
Does he take sugar in his tea or not!?
does he like sugar in his tea or not?
What! Lmao!!!!!!!!
no that would be horrible keep playing and writing jeff
Better than Eminems version this is melodic, i'm not a fan of rap :)
DOES HE TAKE SUGAR OR NOT??!!
why would you do that :[
this isnt juno!
Then I bet you'd be one of the bullies, wouldn't you? ;)
Peel Session?
10 dislikes/?SEEK HELP QUICK YOUVE LOST YOUR SOULS!!!
Hipsters, God I hate them.
What a lost opportunity! She is terrible. Sorry, but she is just reading words. Jeff is a natural performer. She is talented, but in this case she really doesn't understand what she is doing. On a dare? Reluctant? They could do another take with a different conspirator.
if you're gonna do eminem, why censor it? couldn't even say corny looking white boy?
Laura beasts it!!!
The bloke ... Um..
That’s jeffereys voice
hahaha I love Laura Marling but this is shit, they both sound like those "text to speak" voices online :L
its supposed to be shite isn't it? that's why its good
No offense... This is one of most soulless song I've ever heard
Can't Jeffery make his voice a bit smoother? it's so contrast to Laura's :/
