There's no contest they are right. It's fresh. You can tell a hard working band, and you can't just pull this one off. Love the cryptic soul crew Len album. Live in Manhattan but Brooklyn bound to see these guys. Few bands have talent these days, what a breath of fresh air.
Actually, the voice of Tommy Pickles is E.G. Daily and she is an "amateur" singer. She did the theme song for the late 80s movie Better Off Dead and more recently was on the Voice.
I've been listening to AV CLub covers on and off for a few years now and wow, this is the first one that has ever immediately blown me away, without having to quantify it to something. This mix is just so perfect. I had never heard of this band before, but they nailed it more than any other known quantity that has ever passed the bill. Congrats.
I love this song and love this video even more, Charly you rule, you managed to make a candy pop song even more candy( I love it), and love the Guitar too. Candy pop n distorted guitars awesome.
the best thing about going to a charly bliss show is not the great tunes..not their amazing energy...its watching eva's face. i just smile the whole show
Charly Bliss killed it doing a whole set of Josie and the Pussycats songs in Brooklyn back in 2017. They are great band and I never thought I'd be slammin to Pretend to be Nice cover from that film.
You know, at first I found the singer's voice a bit grating, but for some reason I just kept coming back. Now I'm completely in love with this rendition. Even better than the original.
At times I hear echoes of Kathleen Hanna from Bikini Kill or Kim Deal from the Pixies in her vocals, and those are the moments that save the vocals for me. I love the conversion from pop to power pop, though, from a musical standpoint, and the energy of the band... so it's too bad the vocals are so challenging.
HEY AV CLUB!!! Why are most of your past/older AV Undercover videos gone??? They were some of my favorite songs to listen to but I can't find any of them... Why delete your old videos?? :/ PS, I love this cover. this is fucking awesome.
Man a lot of haters on here! I saw these guys live back in DC as an opener for another band. I saw Eva outside and thought she was just somebody waiting for the show. After I saw them perform I was hey there's that girl that was out at the curb earlier! totally blown away. I love her voice. And these guys rock. Haters can go kiss off.
I think with the rock/electric guitar arrangements, it feels quite relentless, and doesn't lend to much dynamic range. BUT I just bought their Guppy album today, and it's been one of my best purchases of 2018 (and perhaps even 2017). Their songs are so tight, and there are no wasted chords or bars.
Lyric ~ Len - Steal my Sunshine I was lying on the grass on Sunday morning of last week Indulging in my self defeat My mind was thugged all laced and bugged all twisted wrong and beat A comfortable three feet deep Now the fuzzy stare from not being there on a confusing morning weak Impaired my tribal lunar speak And of course you can't become if you only say what you would have done So I missed a million miles of fun I know it's up for me If you steal my sunshine Making sure I'm not in too deep If you steal my sunshine Keeping versed and on my feet Check, c'mere c'mere, c'mere Wow, look at her I know I've never seen Sharon look so bad before I did once before, but this is pretty bad Yeah, what do you think she got up to last night? Ha ha ha Well, I, Karen I love you I was lying on the bench slide in the park across the street L-a-t-e-are that week My sticky paws were in to making straws out of big fat slurpy treats An incredible eight foot heap Now the funny glare to pay a gleaming tare in a staring under heat Involved an under usual feet And I'm not only among but I invite who I want to come So I missed a million miles of fun I know it's up for me If you steal my sunshine Making sure I'm not in too deep If you steal my sunshine Keeping versed and on my feet I know it's done for me If you steal my sunshine Not as some and hard to see If you steal my sunshine Keeping dumb and built to beat If you steal my sunshine My sunshine If you steal my sunshine
Soooo....why are the older av undercover playlists be made private? I really love the cymbals eat cursive "hey jealousy" cover and now I can't find it...
Even if you don't like the band and it singer, which I personally do. You should appreciate how much fun they have performing! They seem like they'd be so much fun to see perform!
haters gonna hate...they can suck off.....but as far as seeing charly bliss...yeah....going to my 7th and 8th show in the next two months....they are the best live band out there and super nice kids. always talk to their fans. they are easily my fave band and i go to a lot of shows...11 in the next three months....prolly 30 so far this year. fuck the haters man...i dont get it....you dont like it just go away...who cares about your negative comments...fucking hate them.
miked4309 I totally agree! I saw them in October and I cried a little they’re amazing! I sent a picture of my artwork I did of them and they said It was really awesome, totally nice people
If you averaged together the brother and sister from Len you would probably end up with this girl's voice lol. Probably painful as hell to sing like that for too long. I dig it.
charly bliss is exploding....i saw them 2 years ago and they had 6k monthly listeners on spotify...they now have over 60k...im going to shows 7 and 8 in the next month and a half. i love this band so much.

I missed this cover when they took down all the old videos. I'm glad it's back!
This was my first introduction to Charly Bliss
Mine too they rule
Mine, too.
Mine too, and quickly found out THEY ROCK!
I hope av club keeps this on youtube forever
Outstanding.
Love this song and your version is flames!
I hated this when I first heard it. Now I’m kind of in love with it.
Yeah it was kind of a douchy song back then
i never watched all the way to the end but that last little run friggin goes
Obsessed with this cover. Love it!
I kind of hate how much I love this cover. Getting embarrassed about humming Len everywhere I go.
I came across this purely by chance. I'm in love with it.
when it came up i turned it into a mp3 and listened to it on my ipod for a week straight. charly bliss is my favorite band by far.
Ditto it’s hauntingly good
There's no contest they are right. It's fresh. You can tell a hard working band, and you can't just pull this one off. Love the cryptic soul crew Len album. Live in Manhattan but Brooklyn bound to see these guys. Few bands have talent these days, what a breath of fresh air.
I hate people who think music should be wrapped in a pretty gift. This is great.
This just makes everything tingle, doesn't it?
It actually does!
Been listening to CB for 5 years now, they’re still the best! Awesome cover! They should do more!
So this is what it would sound like if Tommy Pickles sang for Weezer? I dig it.
Taxi DriverAppleChapel it's the Rug-Rap!
They should get Mark Mothersbaugh on here.
Actually, the voice of Tommy Pickles is E.G. Daily and she is an "amateur" singer. She did the theme song for the late 80s movie Better Off Dead and more recently was on the Voice.
I like this band, but every time I hear them now I think of your comment and crack up. It's the perfect 1-2 line review.
the guy in the blue shirt did the voice of the bad guy(kid) from "The Incredibles"
I've been listening to AV CLub covers on and off for a few years now and wow, this is the first one that has ever immediately blown me away, without having to quantify it to something. This mix is just so perfect. I had never heard of this band before, but they nailed it more than any other known quantity that has ever passed the bill. Congrats.
go see them live if you can. they instantly became my favorite band when i first saw them open for veruca salt. they are so good. and so fun.
I saw them a few weeks ago here in Chicago. They're fantastic and should definitely been seen live.
I agree, it’s so crisp, the drums low key incredible, the whole mix is just epic!
Great snare sound!
Great drummer!
This is the video I saw of Charly Bliss. I then searched for more finding Ruby and after that I was a fan, bought the CD Guppy became of huge fan.
That was like a year ago by the way.
@@mmiddleton871 Three years ago.
I love this song and love this video even more, Charly you rule, you managed to make a candy pop song even more candy( I love it), and love the Guitar too. Candy pop n distorted guitars awesome.
Honestly, I just keep watching this for the band's weird ass facial expressions. But watch it enough times and you really start to enjoy it.
They have always reminded me of what would happen if someone started a band and the only pop culture they had consumed was Empire Records.
what a great cover! Love u Charly Bliss
the best thing about going to a charly bliss show is not the great tunes..not their amazing energy...its watching eva's face. i just smile the whole show
Now every time youtube tries to throw the Len version at me I have to jump over to this one, it's so good.
OMG. This is just stellar.
benrausch stellar as in sucks balls?
Young Paul Rudd on backup vocals low key killing it
TheMattmatic omg hahaha that's the comment of the day right there!
Weird to see him on guitar and not slappin da bass
It's ither paul rudd or tom hanks lol
I literally could not guess who you think looks like Paul Rudd or Tom Hanks for that matter, but rock on
That’s actually the voice of Dash from The Incredibles, no joke
Well done!
I bet they'd kill "Sugar High" from Empire Records :)
Charly Bliss killed it doing a whole set of Josie and the Pussycats songs in Brooklyn back in 2017. They are great band and I never thought I'd be slammin to Pretend to be Nice cover from that film.
This is PERFECTION!
Love this song. Tasty drums. Nice switch for the ending.
This is how I got into CB. Go out and get their record, one of my favorites of the last 10 years.
Damn she rocks that song, I love her energy
Camera work in this is awesome
Well, does he like butter tarts?
😆
🤣
Sharon! I love you!
XD
Well, maybe we should cheer him up then?😂
God damn these guys killed it with this cover, man! Great job.
This might be early, but all I want for Christmas is to know why in the h**** I'm so obsessed with this damn cover.
This is so awesome. Love it.
Never has someone enunciated words so clearly, while also being impossible to understand. Brava!
Wow, and I almost turned away until I gave it a chance, and now I really do like her unique voice. Love it!
she is one of the nicest people in person. actually sam, spencer and dan are all super nice. i love charly bliss. they deserve the big time.
This is SOOOOO FRICKIN GOOD!!!!!!
The camera trucking in and out over and over gets old right off the rip but this is one of the best covers AV Undercover has ever recorded
That was awesome, love this band!
Sooo good!
Said no one ever.....
I want to see this live so fucking badly!!
I love this version. YAY!!! 🎤🎸♥️🤘
amazing amazing cover. i love how they really get into it the final way around
You know, at first I found the singer's voice a bit grating, but for some reason I just kept coming back. Now I'm completely in love with this rendition. Even better than the original.
This is precisely my experience.
At times I hear echoes of Kathleen Hanna from Bikini Kill or Kim Deal from the Pixies in her vocals, and those are the moments that save the vocals for me. I love the conversion from pop to power pop, though, from a musical standpoint, and the energy of the band... so it's too bad the vocals are so challenging.
Same here.
I would've bailed in the first 30 seconds but for your comment. Glad I didn't and your advice was spot on.
This was totally my experience with Screaming Females episode of Undercover
the vocals totally sound like joey lauren adams singing in chasing amy, i dig it
Chasing Amy?... Maybe, Empire Records? i agree
nevrmind renee zellwiger DUUUUHHH.
I thought she sounded like Tara Strong (Aka Bubbles/Timmy Turner/Raven...)
30 seconds into this I was thinking, "Oh hell no!" 3 minutes later I was buying Guppy on Amazon. Mmmm, Fender Mustang AND Fender Jaguar!
2:45 out is amazing....that guitar whooosh and then vox...just awesome.
I thought I hated this at first but I keep coming back.
HEY AV CLUB!!! Why are most of your past/older AV Undercover videos gone??? They were some of my favorite songs to listen to but I can't find any of them... Why delete your old videos?? :/
PS, I love this cover. this is fucking awesome.
That outfit'll get her a free chick-fil-a sandwich
Man a lot of haters on here! I saw these guys live back in DC as an opener for another band. I saw Eva outside and thought she was just somebody waiting for the show. After I saw them perform I was hey there's that girl that was out at the curb earlier! totally blown away. I love her voice. And these guys rock. Haters can go kiss off.

I saw Eva last year, go a picture with after her set she was jamming out with the crowd to Japanese Breakfast!
Lyric ~ Len - Steal my Sunshine
I was lying on the grass on Sunday morning of last week
Indulging in my self defeat
My mind was thugged all laced and bugged all twisted wrong and beat
A comfortable three feet deep
Now the fuzzy stare from not being there on a confusing morning weak
Impaired my tribal lunar speak
And of course you can't become if you only say what you would have done
So I missed a million miles of fun
I know it's up for me
If you steal my sunshine
Making sure I'm not in too deep
If you steal my sunshine
Keeping versed and on my feet
Check, c'mere c'mere, c'mere
Wow, look at her
I know
I've never seen Sharon look so bad before
I did once before, but this is pretty bad
Yeah, what do you think she got up to last night?
Ha ha ha
Well, I, Karen I love you
I was lying on the bench slide in the park across the street
L-a-t-e-are that week
My sticky paws were in to making straws out of big fat slurpy treats
An incredible eight foot heap
Now the funny glare to pay a gleaming tare in a staring under heat
Involved an under usual feet
And I'm not only among but I invite who I want to come
So I missed a million miles of fun
I know it's up for me
If you steal my sunshine
Making sure I'm not in too deep
If you steal my sunshine
Keeping versed and on my feet
I know it's done for me
If you steal my sunshine
Not as some and hard to see
If you steal my sunshine
Keeping dumb and built to beat
If you steal my sunshine
My sunshine
If you steal my sunshine
I have no idea why, but I'm addicted to this.
i wanted to hate this the first time i saw it but am on my 6th view. im now a fan of Charly Bliss and am gonna find more of their music
Awesomeness
Makes you wonder if they put this in their set list from time to time.
Yesssss, so happy! This is great
I'm pretty sure I'm at least a third of these views
I loved this.
Oh my, Loving this.
Soooo....why are the older av undercover playlists be made private? I really love the cymbals eat cursive "hey jealousy" cover and now I can't find it...
Even if you don't like the band and it singer, which I personally do. You should appreciate how much fun they have performing! They seem like they'd be so much fun to see perform!

miked4309 I totally agree! I saw them in October and I cried a little they’re amazing! I sent a picture of my artwork I did of them and they said It was really awesome, totally nice people
her voice reminds me of vanellope from wreck it ralph (in a good way)
If you averaged together the brother and sister from Len you would probably end up with this girl's voice lol. Probably painful as hell to sing like that for too long. I dig it.
i need them to release this. 🤤🤤🤤
this is perfect!! well done. it gives me cavities though
WO! This is amazing!!!!!!
Saw them last month in BK and they played this! It was rad
i love every part of this
So much potential in this band. I love these guys.
As someone who actually bought the LEN album Can't Stop The Bumrush at the same time as getting into punk bands like Lit and A...I fucking love this!!
This slaps!!
2:45 onwards is so fucking great. Love their energy. I honestly think this is better than the original
totally agree. me and my buds cover songs all the time and when in doubt, on the final chorus, 'punk it up'.. always sounds good
True, plus they didn't even have to steal the More, More, More, Andrea True Connection sample!
Honestly 2:10 onwards
Oh my God. I can die now happy.
I like the vocals.
The original of this song has always been a bit of a guilty pleasure and I absolutely love this version.
This is great.
I go to this before the original now . XO
Its growing on me. My initial thought was instant hate but actually? Kinda digging it
The drummer!
Damn, it's been a while since I heard this song.
BEST ONE IN THIS SEASON BY FUCKEN MILLES OMFG ARGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
Santiago Muedano I still think the Xiu Xiu cover was better but this is a lot of fun
charly bliss is exploding....i saw them 2 years ago and they had 6k monthly listeners on spotify...they now have over 60k...im going to shows 7 and 8 in the next month and a half. i love this band so much.
Best AV Club Cover, Best album of 2017 so far (although I am loving that Randy Newman). They are on fire.
Best by... a million miles of fun?
i dig 1:27.. that's what's bringing me back.
Very very good. the bass and drums are on fuckin' point.
I selected this cover on a whim and found my new favorite band.
Dude I LOVE this girl's voice ❤❤❤❤
oh HELL yes when the drummer hits the beat at 1:48--I forgot how much that ride bell made the song
well done CB!
REALLY good! Would love to hear them jam with Len.
Yusss. This is what the channel was made for! Great cover!
I was lying on the grass

Dressed like Pebbles Flintstone but bam bam job on the cover lady.
Sooo good I played it twice.. homeboy in the army green shirt is fine as hell
Soo gooooood !
So proud of these kids.
MedicalMarcom
Go, Charley!
That guitar tone is awesome. Muff I figure, what else?
Guitarist voiced Dash in the first Incredibles, Google it if you don't believe me 😂😂😂
an awesome cover. Totally reinvented the song in a very good way!
Yes. So much yes.
