The original song uses a Vocoder which is an easier way of doing what you did. Now, let me tell you this is by far the best cover of this song I've ever heard, you did a great job!
@@dbnois3 Please read the description again and check on youtube to see what a vocoder is. He layered different audio tracks with robot effect on each one, the vocoder does all of that live at the moment.
So many mediocre and subpar covers of this song... but dude, you nailed it! Love your voice, love your rendition, love the fact that you didnt screw the pooch during the 'whatcha say' part. So many people drop the ball there. You didn't hit the high "tears" but damn man that sounded great anyways... loved it. And the power right after... man, you 'get it' with this song.
Right on right on! It always thrills me when I meet a metal head who's just as much into other genres as he or she is the more aggressive stuff. I'll definitely be posting some metal vocal stuff as well in the future. Most likely playthrough videos of my bands Rest Among Ruins and Ordinance. Anyway thanks so much for watching and thanks for the sub :D
Imogen Heap created that "robot-like" effect using a vocoder, but seeing how very close your sound is to the original, it's incredible that you were able to achieve this using "just" Melodyne (without a vocoder). Big thumbs up. :)
Such a dedicated work with a lot of passion and respect for the original artist. Every detail is well interpreted and beautifully and gently put together.
Mike, you are the first one I've heard that actually hits the "breathy" parts correctly. Your voice is perfect for this, and you did a fantastic job. Make the hair on my arms stand up, I loved it man!
really good, even if its a vocoder, it shines through that your pitch is spot on. Gave me goosebumbs. What ever happened to the florence and the machine-cover?
Holy chills. I can't even describe. Just listened to the entire Disclosure album, and then this amazingly passionate cover. Mr. Semesky, you have talent - and so does your entire band members.
I KNOW! Can't get through this tune without misty eyes. It's just magical. Then when you have someone so talented doing it, and you've really got something special.
I just spent the last couple hours listening to what must have been 30 different versions of this song, and this is by far the best cover I've heard. GREAT JOB!
Beautiful, probably one of the best covers of this songs; it captures the majority of the harmonies and tonalities of the original to preserve the haunting loveliness that Imogen Heap meant this song to be. Well done sir.
So it's two in the morning and I'm supposed to be up at six. But I just heard this for the first time and I'm not gonna ignore how beautiful it is. Your voice is so soothing and something about it makes me feel like I'm being comforted. There are parts where I just wish I wasn't alone so I could be listening to this with someone else and have them be excited with me This song makes me feel the way that these hours do. Where it's between being the night and the morning. Depending on if you look at the clock or at the sky. But also reliant on how awake you feel. This song makes me just... Idk... It makes me feel something. To just feel anything is a beauty. But to feel something so pleasant that you can't name it... That's beautiful
I saw this come up on TH-cam and I thought to myself, "yeah, right, what guy can cover this song?". Boy was I surprised. You blew this song away and it sounded incredible. Nice job!
Ridiculously amazing. This needs to have more views. Bravo. It's amazing how harmonics strangely generate camaraderie and poignancy in humans, evidenced by all the comments.
I was not expecting this but damn. I adore Imogen Heap. Was not expecting this kind of awesome in my sub box. Please continue making aural goodness Mr Semesky.
Playing this and the original at the same time will give you a guaranteed eargasm.
That's genius.
it was amazing

Over a year later its still pure bliss 😭😭😭😭😍😍😍😍😍

he didn't use a vocoder? that's a wow
He did use a vocoder... it’s very obvious to hear that he did.
@@ChrisLaupama Please read the description. He went a different route cause he didn't know what she used.
Abd El Rahman Makram the description actually says that he did use a vocoder
@@dbnois3 Please read the description again and check on youtube to see what a vocoder is. He layered different audio tracks with robot effect on each one, the vocoder does all of that live at the moment.
I launched this version and the original w/ lyrics..
The combination is beautiful..
Thanks, just tried it
my god both synced are just amazing o.o
Rhapsody3991
omg gave me the chills
Genius
how did you do it?
Thank you so much for sharing that. It means so much :) And yes, my buddy Greg Macklin did such an amazing job mixing the audio!
WTF indeed. Sync the original with this one and it's even better O_o
Omgggggggg.
Omg
Kevin D Experience the glory: soundcloud.com/micsaunders/hide-and-seek-imogen-heap-mike-semensky
Kevin D Such a good recommendation. They sound beautiful together.
THIS IS F-ING UNBELIEVABLE

Danwrite92 hit it in his video! Also a very good cover
fooloof wanna bet? :o

And on top of that, what he did was probably a lot more painstaking, doing each track individually.
I couldn't help but sing along and for some reason I started crying. I don't know what it is, but damn, what a cover.
same , I like listening to this when I'm just alone and something bad happens.
It's a pretty emotionally intense song. Made my eyes wet too.
I watched this the whole way through just so i could hear the ex vocalist of intervals sing "hmm whacha say" and it was worth
So is there anything this dude can't sing? Lorde? Imogen Heap? Dude can even do AMAZING death metal growls!
Such a dedicated work with a lot of passion and respect for the original artist.
Every detail is well interpreted and beautifully and gently put together.
Resident evol ?
Love how you stayed so close to the original while still added a touch of your own! Beautiful!
You sir deserve my subscription. Best Cover, I hope more people begin to appreciate your work.
This is the most beautiful version of Imogen's song that I have ever heard.
Mike, you are the first one I've heard that actually hits the "breathy" parts correctly. Your voice is perfect for this, and you did a fantastic job. Make the hair on my arms stand up, I loved it man!
really good, even if its a vocoder, it shines through that your pitch is spot on. Gave me goosebumbs. What ever happened to the florence and the machine-cover?
Mike, You Beautiful Creature... Well Done. It is a pleasure to listen to.
You are most welcome to Ever Forthright sir.........I cant wait to hear it .
I love this song and this is the ONLY cover that does it justice. Props man!
Mate the fact I could sync this song with original is stunning. You've done a fantastic job champion.
I want this cover in my music library. I prefer this to the original.
seriously, man, I had chills the whole way through this. Bravo.
Holy f***! you are sooo good! I really get chills listening to this version. you are amazing! :D
I'm so glad you found your way into Intervals...brings a tear to me eye. Your cleans are right up there with Daniel Tompkins.
Loved this cover! Love this song from Imogen Heap!
wow amazing cover
2:53 my favorite moment
unbelievably beautiful
Marissa shooting Trey. Ahhhh, yes... I do remember The O.C.
Great cover, sir. Amazing voice.
I love the oc!!!
Holy chills. I can't even describe. Just listened to the entire Disclosure album, and then this amazingly passionate cover. Mr. Semesky, you have talent - and so does your entire band members.
oh dear god this is perfect. this is ansolute.
I KNOW! Can't get through this tune without misty eyes. It's just magical. Then when you have someone so talented doing it, and you've really got something special.
Beautiful! You've done the cover so freakin well! ♡
that thump at the end has a hidden sound in it that makes me hit the repeat button over and over.
God I love this cover, is too beautiful, how did you get that efect with the voice? Is autotune or something like that?
too bad you can't read
The software is called melodyne
Melodye is sort of autotune, its a programm to check and correct the pitch to absolute perfection and create some effects
I really can't get enough of this. Absolutely flawless.
perfect. love your shirt too, dude.
Getting chills right from the start of this man, perfect job.
I absolutely love this!!! :D :D this is amazing!!!
I just spent the last couple hours listening to what must have been 30 different versions of this song, and this is by far the best cover I've heard. GREAT JOB!
I have heard the voice of a god
Hikaru Kimaru He's not Morgan Freeman...
Um Morgan Freeman isn't a god, he's so much more than a god.
Hikaru Kimaru Maybe that was his plan all along. God works in mysterious ways :p
and its teling me to see 02:53
+Hikaru Kimaru No, sorry that was just the auto tune. but I t still sounded good. You should hear Imogen Heap sing that :D
How did I just find this in my entire quarter century of a lifetime???????? this is just out of this world
that was pretty fuckin cool
Replayed this so many times. So obsessed, better than the original and better than any cover I've heard. New favourite song. Ever.
2:53 best part :')
Beautiful, probably one of the best covers of this songs; it captures the majority of the harmonies and tonalities of the original to preserve the haunting loveliness that Imogen Heap meant this song to be. Well done sir.
Cam someone make a duet of mike semesky and imogen heap's hide and seek together? I can't find it on soundcloud :(
Still watching this 9 years later. You killed it man. Goosebumps everytime

Ridiculously amazing. This needs to have more views. Bravo. It's amazing how harmonics strangely generate camaraderie and poignancy in humans, evidenced by all the comments.
SEVERELY underrated. You sir, have talent.
One of the best covers of this I've ever seen!
Flawless man. In one of my favourite bands on earth and a fan of my favourite solo artists ever.
best way to listen to listen. start it like... half a second after the original imogen heap song.
so trippy, and echo-y, and awesome.
