Damn
Every time I find another Kiffness gem I am astounded at the raw talent.
This is seriously good.
Why aren't you more popular? Your talent is freaking outstanding.
Can't Agree more
Because he lives in south africa. He needs to .over to another country get popular their then move to another like pewdipiedid
@@MdVaDc Pewdiepie only moved to the UK because the broadband was better than Sweden.
This guy is very talented! He knows how to write, arrange, sing, harmonize and mix and make it look easy...my favorites are Yesterday and Quaranqueen.
Amazing...I wish I had half that skill.
This guy is great!! Not only is he clever and can sing, he’s just plain lovable!
This is probably the most unique parody that I have seen so far and follows the original song perfectly. Well done!
Really great Beautifully and well done
Rounds up to a nice 100 likes, lol.

@@johndoe7268 Brilliant - Hope you got out, Rgds from New Zealand.
@TJ Thunder
Forgive my bad English Mr. Thunder, this most certainly falls into the 'is' category; I myself was very inspired by this creative masterpiece and have rewritten a slayer cover and recorded my vocals over the top of an instrumental version I found on youtube, I called my song Banned from Devon (after their South of Heaven album). ...and thank you for an intelligent response; glad to see someone consider the structuring of English instead of using emojis. Good health to you mate.
Wow, these last two years has shown how many talented people there are out there. This was brilliant.
Your lyrics are very funny and so cleverly constructed, every next line is a surprise, nothing predictable.
Keeping some words from the original song or changing them just slightly in places where they are most familiar to our ears make this " remake" even more endearing.
Pretty much what I was trying to express. Less emphasis on making the lyrics fit & more in telling your story. Love it!
Luv the sincerity and straight face! Thanks Kiffness, this deserves an Academy Award.
When you're more afraid to inform your wife about undone laundry than your arrest. Haha.
I love most of your song parodys. You are very talented
@@ministerdebbie Mine? Or did you accidentally comment on my comment? O.o
Just one of the many reasons I'm happily divorced.
@@ministerdebbie If not a mistake, I appreciate that very much. I just don't get a lot of compliments. Thanks. 🙂
LOL!
Parody is an art form. You've got it down to perfection.
check out Al Doane 'The wreck of the Hillary Clinton'
Pretty much it's hiku a form of rhythmic poetry where words rhyme. Most music is like that, and I love reinventing songs.
Adam Schiff likes a good parody!
Sarcasm and parody is also a sign of high inteligence
I hope that you find the bridge over the troubled waters.
Very clever and insightful!
@@treesarae Hello, it is hard work. Being South Africa maybe there are diamonds on the soles of their shoes
😂😂😂
@@daylight5500 could you imagine if that were really true..take a walk and find diamonds on your shoes..that sounds like a good song content to me.
😉😊☺️ 👍
Revisiting my favorite lockdown parodies! Its been over a year, still makes me laugh!
EXCELLENT!!! , I wish my grade 7 class had practiced this version in 1971 ,...... Brings tears to my eyes .
I discovered the Kiffness last week and became an instant fan! Living in South Africa is amazing again thanks to your awesome talent.
Real..honest talent.
Genius!!! (as always!) even without cats, birds, doggos etc.
Greetings from Los Angeles! You have to send this to EVERY 'Late night' comedian (Jimmy Fallon, Jimmy Kimmel, Stephen Cobert and John Oliver) ...you are going to be an International sensation!! No pressure but...keep them coming!!!
@ concierge luxe,
They're are not any comedians on late night tv anymore.
Not to me.😵
@@Stevenowski agree, so i have no tv.
those aren't comedians,just poor substitutes
I love your kind of wacky! Grew up listening to Dr. Demento... I love your smart funny senses!
I would love to hear your version of "Day-O" with he change "daylight comes and I wanna leave home"
🤭👍me too
Hang in there
God bless all y'all
😆😆
This is fucking genius. Who can make such a legit quality parody cover of Simon n Garfunkel is a real talent
STEVIE RIKS
His voice really suits this one
The one dislike is from my wife.
Why though?
I have a feeling the laundry is still not done...
Its awesome bro, thanks
I pray to God for you to be safe and to walk the line😉
😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
You forgot to do the laundry
The loundry is still waiting
😂😁😂
Хороший канал. Очень интересный, добрый, напевный. Талантливы все. Все.
Jail vs an angry wife and undone chores. No contest. Say hi to the warden for us. 😏
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
😂👏👏👏
Unhappy wife Unhappy life! LOL
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Austria is in fourth wave lockdown right now and again it's you who saves the rest of my sanity. Thanks for your great work. 💕
А я спасалась и сейчас, когда на душе -- дерьмо, спасаюсь тирольскими напевами!!! ❤️🎶👏💐 Но это парень тоже замечательный!!!! 😍🎶
Legend has it that to this day, the laundry still has not been done
@JoshuaHuddleston The Mystery of the LAUNDRY LEGEND will endure for generations to come 🧺🚔
You nailed it!
I love this song so much that I chose to listen to your version even though I have the original on tape, CD, video (unless my kids recorded cartoons over it), and on the very phone that I'm watching you on as I type this! Your lyrics and your voice... perfection!
People, let's get this one over the first 100 K.
Love your poetic lyrics " My excuses, like silent raindrops fell". We've all been there.
Greetings from South Australia
BRAVO! You & others doing this art deserve a SPECIAL CATEGORY at SUNDANCE & CANNES FILM FESTIVAL. I KID YOU NOT. 🧺🤩🎵🙏🏾 You're an INCREDIBLE singer, songwriter, arranger, videographer.
I cannot tell you how many times I laughed during this song.. is it the stress?.. I think in part.. I also felt like crying.. maybe I'm hysterical.. but regardless of my state.. (because of the situation we're going through ).. this man is really so talented.. can you believe how good he sings and really how clever he is.. I'm ignoring how handsome he is because he's married..
...yea..he is brilliant...something to cheer us up a bit...if not a lot.!!!
Yes!! Agreed! But she can think "lucky me"!! Ha ha 😊
I started crying watching it. 😢💔
You're married to 30 people and never knew! I loved this version, just couldn't laugh because it's the sad truth.
I agree...and he is rather pleasing to the eyes!!!
I must admitt, I absolute adore your songs. They gave me and still give me such bright smiles over the lockdowns here and the still difficult time I experience. Thank you so much for your contributions. May whoever you believe in watch every step you make.
You are excellent in so many ways... voice, writing, humor, etc. etc. Thank you from the Appalachian mountains in North Carolina!
Karen T hubby’s going to Asheville next week for work. Safe safe, from a Raleigh.
Beautifully sung and compiled,, luv the relationship,,, often revisit the Simon and Art Garfunkel,,,
Boy, you are only buying time. Your wife will find out during the trial that you were lollygagging & laundry is not done. You are screwed. Whatever sentence you get it amounts to life without parole. TgT
We are in lockdown in Montagu, Western Cape. Police patrol here often, sirens blaring. We love watching the Kiffness songs and then try make up our own lyrics. Going to have fun with this one!
That's great!
Hello From Durban South Africa 😎
probably the best parody have ever had the pleasure of watching. Sung faultlessly with well fitting lyrics. Quite emotionally draining in parts but also very funny....well done , outstanding
This was absolutely brilliant!
Great parody...good humor and sad😕
I am from Italy. I took the lockdown seriously and I didn't go out except when necessary but didn't experience stress or anxiety or cabin fever. However when I heard ambulance sirens, I was reminded of how things were going out there
You did it again! Loved it. There's so much the US and South Africa have in common. One guy jaywalks and 20 cops show up! You're bringing us together . . . aparty.
The best I have seen! I am a huge Simon and Garfunkel fan and I saw this and thought, "This will be stupid, but what the heck." I loved it. You made my day!
Well Done Sweetheart...You are a Gift from Our Heavenly Father with much Talent....Keep Going! Much Love to You💕
Bless your heart
👍well done
Ich bin begeistert. Nicht nur die Musik ist dicht am Original, sondern auch der Text. Hut ab!!!!!
Love your parodies! Such an artist
I’m really impressed by the way he can sing. I love his voice so much.
This is the anthem of my nights, walking trackways, towpaths and across a moor, all the time keeping an eye out for the bat flu stasi (I was smuggling non-essential easter eggs across town lines, but that market has dried up recently🤫).
"The Bat Flu Stasi", wow, that's a good one for a parody. 😆 I'm sure there's a song out there that'll fit that. 😄👍🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Hilarious comment !
I played the original of this song, on repeat, during my pregnancy in 1998.
So had a good laugh to hear your version.
Some people are born with such talented ambition I’m so glad I listen to Mr.Kiffness talent, I love his voice…….keep the songs going, and thank you for sharing your love of music.
Very talented musician and signer. And so very funny. I LOL'ed many times during the recording! And the visual expressions!
This song has always meant something special to me it's such a spot in my heart but now it's completely touched another spot in my heart to wear its happiness and I had laughed so hard I was almost ROFLMAO. I understand why you didn't call was because you know what they say unhappy wife unhappy life LOL. I love how you spliced the two videos together and synchronize them. Please keep these coming.
The lyrics are so in sync with the original. Great voices and lyrics. Thank you.
The BEST of all the parodies I’ve heard! Absolutely delightful!
it's a little to fast to match the original tempo
Sniff sniff...sad story... I just discovered this wonderful channel and now I'm in ! I'm a new member.
I'm enjoying all your parodies, but I think this is my favorite so far! So clever. I second the vote for a 'Day-O' parody!
This.Was.Brilliant! I grew up listening to Simon and Garfunkel. Your parody captured the sound and feel of the original perfectly.
Notice they tell you what symptoms come with the virus but none about the isolation : restlessness, insomnia, irritability, indigestion, desperation, hopelessness, anger, panic, claustrophobia, manic depression, ..etc
Mary Broderick So true... I think the desperate depression resulting from the isolation will have more long lasting ramifications than the virus itself in many ways......
why are you lol..are you becoming hysterical also?
Drgnfli It's easy to speak that way if you've never suffered clinical depression. And isolation makes depression so much worse.
This crisis is already causing murders and suicides. That's nothing to laugh about. Mental health is no joke.
@Drgnfli Absolutely!

Great. A year after it was written and
I still listen to it regularly. Bloody well done
You're a real genius, Kiff. You bet l'll be going over the lyrics over and over again! Art Garfunkel will be proud! Keep up the good work. Love, from "also Semi Lockdown Malaysia".
"The right to remain silent" part is genious!
Wonderful job!!! Not only on the lyrics; but the vocals/harmonies were excellent in their own right as well!👍👍
I watch this all the time. First time i saw The Kiff and am huge fan since epidemic started. Congratulations on your beautiful wife and son ❤
Fantastic, thanks for this. Keep it coming. All the best from Switzerland and stay healthy
Excellent! Tells the story! During lock-down, I am a rock! God bless, Dave
Bloody brilliant! The best part of this lockdown is seeing so many awesome parodies coming out! Made my day (even though I have no idea what day it actually is anymore...) 😂😍
It is highlight of the parodys .I have cracked up so much to Kiffness. Stay safe and well All.
All he had to tell the cops was "I didn't know what time it was"...they may have let him off :-)
Someone did I want to know what day it is a parody of I want to know what love is.
What day🤔🤔 what month🤔🤔 what week 🤔🤔what year🤔🤔🤔 who knows where am. I who. Am I have I lost the plot🤔🤔🤔🤔 hmmmm🤔🤔🤔🤔
Cherry Lane right? I think we all have! 😂
Brilliant comment on what most of us are thinking. Some of us are so talented.
OMH, I laid back in bed, thinking this would be a beautiful, calming song. All I did was laugh, thank you, needed the laugh more ❤️
You're Incredible, so much talent in one person, wowww, you r out of this world !!!!!
U make this lockdown just a little bit better for me man
I am listening to this in the beginning of November, at the corona capital of the moment, Belgium. This really made my day. Pure genius. Thank you so much.
Great 😉 you forgot to do the Laundry ha ha !! Thanks for putting a huge smile on my face today 😍 Cathy nashville TN

Oh my! Laughing so hard....now go get that laundry done! Thanks so much!

You have a beautiful voice. I’ve listened to this at least 15 times now and can’t get enough.
This is SO GOOD!! Excellent voice. Lyrics well done. Fun escape, sir. 👍
I just had to listen to this again today.. this person is really so clever and really sings so good.. if there was some sort of an award for Corona crooning.. I just made that up!.. he would get the trophy
I have been watching all your videos in my playlist. I love all your songs, but this one makes me laugh out load. ! You are a genius!
I want to thank you from the bottom of my quarantined heart, for adding some laughter to this prison sentence!😁
It’s funny yet haunting because it’s happening and probably much much worse. You’re a clever man!! Beautiful voice!
Lol! The part about the laundry was too much! Thanks for once again making a stressful work week better. You are just awesome!
Probably the best paradoy iv herd yet on covid
