    Probably one of the best covers ever.

    can't ever get enough of this. Do these 2 still sing together?

    I can't watch this without crying for the pure beauty of it.

    I can't stop listening to this, or even watching it. These two girls are beyond beautiful. You can feel everything, even if you don't know what it is you're feeling. Even the smile exchanges that they share make this song that much more beautiful. There's nothing like finding new music like this, you wonder how you went your whole life before without it. To think how lost you'd feel if someone were to just take it away tomorrow!I

    I grew up in Peterborough. My wife and my father both went to PCVS. I hope you girls realize that most people go their whole lives and never make anything quite so beautiful as this. Makes me proud of where I come from.

    This is one of my favorite Neko songs and these 2 performed a beautiful rendition, each with their own respective styles. What an honor that Neko posted this to her facebook!!!!

    I was napping in my new apartment, very far away from my own Canadian hometown. I was woken up by my neighbor, who was blasting this Neko Case song on the other side of the wall. It's so beautiful, I had my ear pressed against the wall hoping to catch a lyric, looked her up, and found this stunning cover--I'll thank my neighbor next time when I see him. Well done, ladies.

    Echoing other comments here--there occasionally are times when I discover something truly remarkable and this is on my all time short list. The skillful audio production conveys perfectly the depth of your stunning voices and the gorgeous tone Kate is pulling from that uke. The video adds real character to the performance as well. I was lucky enough to listen to this the first time with good headphones. Like jmsotak, I won`t soon forget that. Thank you for posting. Please continue to do so.

    @CabbageFarter 11 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    I first watched this about a year ago and still visit it every once in awhile to watch because I like it so much. I wish the girl on the left could tell us what she was trying to not giggle about the entire time, I love watching you fight it the entire time. both have great voices

    The girl on the right sings so effortlessly and she's amazing!

    PCVS is more than just a school. It is a place that welcomes and celebrates the range of ways that kids bring to discovering themselves
    Watching my own daughter come out of this building after classes for so many years, each time reminded me to celebrate the richness that there is within our society and how fortunate we are to be able to rejoice in that diversity.
    Long live PCVS!

    This is one of the best songs I have ever heard. This one. This version.

    1) Compile an EP
    2) Put it on iTunes so I can buy it
    3) You get money for real talent, I get audio heaven.
    You guys are killer.

    What a fantastic sound you ladies make. I thought no one could do a Neko song better than her, but this is pretty darn close. Beautiful.

  • @MrJpmcneil
    @MrJpmcneil 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I love Neko, and I love you! I'm always blown away by young talent and I hope you continue to share those beautiful voices with the world.

  • @mitchelpennell
    @mitchelpennell 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    This is absolutely amazing. I truly hope that P.C.V.S. stays open for decades to come. I've found myself coming back to this video every few hours. Janelle your voice is insane, I can't get over it! Keep it up ladies you're doing great!

  • @jmsotak
    @jmsotak 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Once in a while I stumble onto something really special here. What you both and the person who recorded this have done is inspiring: you captured something so pure and honest and beautiful. It gave me goosebumps and I will never forget listening to it the first time. The video adds such depth to the performance for me. The obvious bond you have makes the audio portion all the more genuine and endearing, Thanks to the 3 of you for taking an already beautiful Neko song to a higher place for me.

    My god.... I was raised on Neko Case and can't count how many times I've heard this song... This song, left me crying. And I'm a guy.

  • @nrthrnscpe
    @nrthrnscpe 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    Every time i think of my old high school i think of how many lives it has effected over the years. The memories made by every individual over decades, its overwhelming. Let P.C.V.S remain to play-out memories to come, and cherish memories past.

  • @melodydan22
    @melodydan22 13 ปีที่แล้ว

    I graduated from a high school not unlike this one in Mississauga (C.P.S.S) and I can say that attending a high school with a regional arts program has changed and enriched my life. I spent grade 9 at another school and in comparison, I wish that everyone could have gone to a school like P.C.V.S. because the passion of the students and faculty make for an amazing learning environment that carries over into other non-arts subject areas as well. GOOD LUCK! I hope you can turn this thing around.

  • @TheEasterparade

    @kittycar09 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I can't stop listening. I really hope you record somethings and make it so I can buy them! Also, I hope Neko has heard this! I think she would be sooo impressed!

  • @08hunnybunny80
    @08hunnybunny80 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I'm so proud to have you go to my school! and the fact that this video has 14,000 views and counting is just proof of your amazing abilities! I hope you make it big because you really deserve it.

  • @TheBenLyon
    @TheBenLyon 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Having attended PCVS, transferring there after a not so enjoyable atmosphere at another high school in grade 9, I can say the sense of school community fostered at the school was unmatched by any school I've had experience with. I am proud to call it my high school. It is also an economic necessity for the downtown. City of Peterborough has spent the last 20 years trying to rejuvenate the downtown, and when I come to visit it surely has come a long way, without the student pop. it may die slowly

    You girls sing exquisite harmonies, thank you . I don't know many contemporary musicians who do that very well except maybe The Low Anthem.

    This is so wonderful! Beautiful voices. I have many, many fond memories of singing in the same stairwell. Being able to attend PCVS had such a great and positive impact on my life. There is so much artistic talent of all kinds coming out of Peterborough, and PCVS fosters creativity in every way. Keep it open!

    This is well done. It really does suck that you guys are closing. Keep strong though, and bring a part of your brilliant school to the community of other schools. That way, the spirit of the school can never really die.

I watch "Ellen" on youtube a lot and was wondering if you guys had submitted your video to her show? I wanted to submit it myself, but it looks like the person who created it has to do it... I sure do hope you guys produce a cd of your own soon... I would buy it!!!
