Your cover is really good! But the original of the song is not from anna kendrick, it is from Lulu and the Lampshades. I really think they should get more credit for that.
It's my favorite cover of any song. They totally changed it. Alex Goot is great and is the that kept me watching Kurt (like the Coca-Cola comercial with Zendaya)
Kurt can do incredible concept videos as well. He once played a song on a bicycle. Not riding the bicycle, he played the song ON the bicycle while Kina Grannis sat on it singing.
I'm reading everyone here saying "no you're gay" or bi or whatever. But I'm also straight (yes, not gay, bi, or fluid or whatever people are doing now) and I loved to see all those girls and how they clothed, used makeup, styled their hair and their overall appearance. That's something normal, and let's be honest, anyone who's recording themselves to post on internet wants to be looked at and wants to look their best.
Like, I get the comments, and a lot of non-straight people do this before coming out, but it‘s not always about that. I’m ace and I do appreciate pretty girls as much as everyone. Aesthetic attraction is a thing. :)
It's the second (i think) time they featured Daft Punk by Pentatonix and the first time they cut right before that, on Harder Better Faster Stronger. I thought this time they would show it :'(
Yeah I've been watching alot of his videos recently because I like roomie but it seems he doesnt finish alot of songs or doesnt give them a fair shake like his country video he did
@@jakwolfe3025 it definitely didn't originate on TikTok. The song came out in 2012 and the challenge started shortly after. I'm pretty sure it started on UA-cam.
@@jordankendall2705 ik the trend likely didn't originate from tiktok never said it did. But still I'm pretty sure there's still at least a few that came from tiktok
@@ScoptOriginal you not catching it doesn't mean it isn't there lol. I didn't catch it much either, but I'm not a singer that pays attention those things. Just rewatch that part knowing what to listen for
Glee actually did have songs that sounded similar to those songs, but those were usually in more emotional episodes. A Glee club is a show choir, so the music mostly followed that.
Someone needs to show him some Glee songs that are actually good. Even glee fans don’t like the songs he’s reviewed. The music is sappy yes, but arranged and sung well, and dare I say it more interesting than the cover with the 3 girls here (which I had to fast forward through because it was so vanilla)
@@vantilate Yep a lot of these covers weren’t that special but glee still doesn’t do much to change the songs, at least that’s what I’ve seen so far from small clips.
I just realized that I've listened to Kurt Hugo Schneider's Beauty and the Beat way too much back in middle school, that I have absolutely no idea now what the original one sounds like xD
Inasmuch as I'm not a massive Goot/Chrissy fan, they sing it in a regular pop singer would. Bieber's seductive tone just isn't for me and feels like his tone only works when people like him besides the music
One thing that I don’t particularly enjoy with that cover in particular is that it is heavily auto tuned. It doesn’t let talent shine as much as it’s production, which is their stronger suit IMHO.
Be realistic, almost all of these are lip synced. It just isn’t feasible to get vocal takes as good as these while also moving enough to make the video interesting. For the same reason you mentioned, the volume would just vary too much. Also singing while playing is really difficult so they do it separate.
Yes it is, but Joel have said in various video that lipsync is totally fine. Everybody did it. I guess what threw him off was that the production/cutting isn't that good.
i think lipsync became (somewhat) a problem when the 'energy' level is clearly different, like in other video where joel comparing covers of that lewis capaldi song. dude sing like it's gonna kill himself but the energy in the voice is soft lol
It's disappointing that Joel didn't include Avi's cool lower part for Daft Punk but Pentatonix is so good anyway it was still so amazing. (Big Pentaholic here!)
this type of stuff is so overused. like yeah it glitches sometimes - so what? everyone's experienced it at some point. no hate tho, I just don't see the point of commenting this :)
@@carlycchapman but it's fine if someone chooses to utilise that. and most people have vision and preferences so what's wrong with enjoying the aesthetic of something? it's really not that sad lol.
I mean he tours and has 200k monthly listeners, he’s not doing BAD, I think as a solo artist he’s doing good enough to be content with it, he IS really good though. Idk about underrated or not, maybe just not a lot of peoples type of music.
Luciana Zogbi is actually so good. I found her on this random ad for cover songs, and was surprised it was as good as it was. I'm guessing a lot of other people had the same experience. It's not even that crazy, there's just a really nice soothing vocal quality that really connects emotionally for me.
@@christabela.b9256 yes! Same here. I don't really know what people see in the original (unpopular opinion?), I feel like they way Haley sings it is how the song is supposed to sound like
@@stijnvth not dissing you but I think Joel means that high notes just for the sake of high notes are not really impressive but they can be awesome if they have a purpose in the song/piece they’re in.
I LOVE seeing people react to Creep with Haley. I haven't seen a single person to hate it, and their reaction is always so full of excitement. It makes me so happy to see
Greyson Chance video shows how much is important to have good publicity. Those kids don't recognize how talented the boy is, but if he had someone famous saying he was "it" they would be ecstatic.
It is so interesting how you can pick apart a song, like WOW that tune, that harmonize, they're lip syncing etc. I can never pick up on it, and it amazes me.
Still waiting to see Christina Grimmie’s cover of Titanium in one of these videos bc it’s so so good. Plus I just don’t want her forgotten bc she was truly the best girl cover singer of all time when she was here. Still miss her everyday.
Or her iconic cover of Just a Dream with Sam Tsui! Christina has so so many fantastic covers, anything she's ever covered she made it her own and added to its charm. Her original songs are great too! I haven't listened to many yet but I really love Advice!
Haley Reinhart was great when she was a contestant on American Idol. She and this guy named Casey (I think) had real chemistry on that season and both had very interrestins sounds. Her version of "Benny and The Jets" was fantastic.
Soooo good. House of the Rising Sun was also crazy. World wasn't ready for her I guess. I think Post Modern Jukebox suits her though. Glad the pop God's didn't get their claws in her and ruin her.
Her version of House of the Rising Sum was amazing! I'm dismayed that we skipped over her scatting in Creep. If I recall, she was sick AND did this in one take.
I thought the same. I know this video was about covers and not just about ptx but he cut way too early there. He could've cut some moments at the beginning and get to the "harder better faster stronger" and "television rules the nation" parts when avi totally crushes those low notes.
Damn, seeing Alex Goot and Chrissy Costanza (Against the Current) here brought me back. They were definitely a big part of my childhood, and this cover of Beauty and a Beat was definitely one of the songs I used to replay a lot. I wish Roomie would review more of Alex and Chrissy's covers because they rock.
I don't think I've ever seen Joel react with so much raw emotion to a voice as him listening to Haley Reinhart w/ Postmodern Jukebox. His goosebumps gave my goosebumps goosebumps!
Remember the OGs when UA-cam cover music was on its peak? KHS, Alex Goot, Tyler Ward, Tiffany Alvord, Max, Megan Nicole, Sam Tsui, Alex G, Dave Days, Against the Current, Chester See, Madilyn Bailey, Andy Case... 2011-2013: Those were the days 💜
the Daft Punk medley by Pentatonix won a Grammy. Absolutely well deserved. One of the sickest covers I've ever watched / heard. BUT I can't believe you cut it right before Avi's amazing "television rules the nation" that's probably one of the best parts in the whole cover.
Was really hoping to see some Mike Tompkins in this, he was around in Kurt Schneider/Alex Goot days. He’s still making music and I think you’d love his beatboxing Joel! 😃
@@ClareNovell absolutely!!! I bought all his music on iTunes like a collection haha! And I love that one! It's always funny with his crying over Brittany impression XD
Everybody commenting about Pentatonix one... Theyre great for sure but fck, ive been obsesed with the creep cover, its my favourite cover all time not even close
@@asafcohen8796 well I'm not really out either. I'm out to my friends but not to my family. they just never see my pfp so I'm fine with having it there :D
Peter Hollens needs to show up in of those videos, he's an absolute legend when it comes to covers. Also Home Free or Voiceplay would show up, they are awesome.
Dang I'm so happy! I've been eagerly looking forward to watching Roomie review Postmodern Jukebox. I would love to see a dedicated video of him reacting to their songs, or doing a vs video with them against another cover band!
Who else hadn't heard of Boyce Avenue until Joel's last cover video? Also that girl in the Creep cover was on American Idol! She was the girl who sang Lady Gaga's song before it was released
Can't wait to see him react to other PMJ covers. The voices their singers have are always so unique, the arrangements make even a lame song sound great. I need a dedicated video of Joel having goosebumps for 30 minutes straight :D
Yeah. That moment where he had goosebumps, I was in tears and I've heard that version many times. Hailey has such an amazing voice. I could listen to her forever.
I was just listening to Postmodern Jukebox, all covers by Haley, and then I thought "omg what would Roomie say about HER?" So I'm happy this video exists and even more happy that Roomie obviously loves her voice as much as I do 🥰 sharing something with Roomie! Spectacular ❤️
Joel’s ability to call out lip singing at first glance is impressive
tbh that one's lip syncing was relatively obvious, but overall yeah he's got a good eye for it

I can't think of Daft Punk as just a cover, it's well-arranged and seamless as it is the combination of different Daft Punk songs.
Hell, most of daft punk's musical arrangements were made from the most complex and obscure samplings ever. So really, it's like remixing remixes.

I wish Roomie would review more of Alex and Chrissy's covers because they rock.
Goosebumps at 15:48 damn that's literally dope knowing how the original song sounded like. Thanks Joel for this wonderful content :D
I love Haley Reinheart! She's from American idol. I still can't believe how she didn't win
Well her performance here and before definitely weren't on par
I'm a very simple person. I see Pentatonix on the thumbnail, I click :')
Joel: *keeps bashing glee*
Also Joel: *has only seen the WORST glee covers from the show 🙃
What he says aint wrong
@@monkeytoes1155 does it change that he is only talking about the worst covers and from only that later seasons?
@@StrmgrXL im not sure how you think my comment could change a youtube video. Weird
The whole show was cringe 9000 until the spidery brune offed himself, which thankfully killed off the show.
@@InservioLetum we are really being happy about someone's death? thats what we are doing here because its edgy?
So glad creep was in there! It’s one of my favourite covers. Hayley Reinhart is a beast, so damn talented.
I don't think I've ever seen Joel react with so much raw emotion to a voice as him listening to Haley Reinhart w/ Postmodern Jukebox. His goosebumps gave my goosebumps goosebumps!
Remember the OGs when UA-cam cover music was on its peak?
KHS, Alex Goot, Tyler Ward, Tiffany Alvord, Max, Megan Nicole, Sam Tsui, Alex G, Dave Days, Against the Current, Chester See, Madilyn Bailey, Andy Case...
2011-2013: Those were the days 💜
Greyson chance actually has other songs now and he’s like 20 something now haha. You should react to more of his song!
Haley is AN ICON! And this is exactly her style! Jazzy old style music. She was on one of the first American Idols ❤
Next: Singers' most popular songs vs singers' most critically acclaimed songs
yes please
the Daft Punk medley by Pentatonix won a Grammy. Absolutely well deserved. One of the sickest covers I've ever watched / heard. BUT I can't believe you cut it right before Avi's amazing "television rules the nation" that's probably one of the best parts in the whole cover.
17:15 ah yes, that's Haley Reinhart for you
More of it!!!
Those years just brought so many outstanding covers and it's great to remember listening to them again that way. ❤
Nobody
Absolutely nobody:
Joel: I lOvE hOw hE SoUndS liKE HeS abOuT tO Be sTrAnglEd👀
in a good way
Sometimes I forget Joel can sing, and then he sings and I'm like 👁👄👁
Everytime he says "this is what glee should've been" I get so sad that he's pretty much only seen bad songs from glee. There is good stuff from glee!!
Exactly!!!
Yes!! I really hope he reacts to their better songs.
Theirs really not
@@chimpypimpy8245 Uhm, Smooth Criminal? Don't Rain On My Parade? Back to Black? Valerie?
@@taylormomsenssidehoe So basically Santana
Yes, the piano guy in the PMJ song is Scott Bradlee, founder of Postmodern Jukebox. He’s absolutely amazing. ♥️
hey Joel! thanks for making your fans smile throughout these times :)
The first one kinda sounds like she is super bored haha. Like “fine I’ll sing I guess” kinda vibe over her voice hahah
Was really hoping to see some Mike Tompkins in this, he was around in Kurt Schneider/Alex Goot days. He’s still making music and I think you’d love his beatboxing Joel! 😃
Yes! Both Mike Tompkins and Peter Hollens! They were my first UA-cam loves haha
@@SpyroShurtagul Thought it was just me! I used to be obsessed with his Fireflies cover 😍
@@ClareNovell absolutely!!! I bought all his music on iTunes like a collection haha! And I love that one! It's always funny with his crying over Brittany impression XD
He should check out Brian Hull, who does covers of popular songs using character impressions.
Mike Tompkins. KHS. Corey Vidal. Andrew Huang. Nick Petera. Those were THE og faves.
It was covers like Beauty and a Beat that got me into ATC and made them one of my favorite bands. Loooove Chrissy's voice
that creep cover is on another level.. the best youtube cover i've ever seen hands down
Everybody commenting about Pentatonix one... Theyre great for sure but fck, ive been obsesed with the creep cover, its my favourite cover all time not even close
Uses Conor Maynard in the thumbnail but didn’t show any of his covers
So dissapointeeed 😭
Yeah im so confused
Pretty sure it's just a recycled thumbnail.
I think he was on the video but then UA-cam shi.. you know..
yeah maybe he forgot to add
Producer: How much better do you want your cover to be from the original?
Pentatonix: YES
I would love to see you react to more Pentatonix and maybe give their originals a listen
He definitely need to react to Pentatonix or Acapella band as a whole
Joel should do a cover of “You’re Still the One”
Joel: *puts pentatonix in the thumbnail*
Me: *immediately internal and external screaming*
Bi rights!
@@asafcohen8796 hell yes (:
honestly me. and yes bi rights!
@@helmi9003 man am I the only bi person to not have a bi flag in my pfp? Not complaining I love it just not out :(
@@asafcohen8796 well I'm not really out either. I'm out to my friends but not to my family. they just never see my pfp so I'm fine with having it there :D
Peter Hollens needs to show up in of those videos, he's an absolute legend when it comes to covers.
Also Home Free or Voiceplay would show up, they are awesome.
ikr, he really needs to watch home free
Yes, im with you! Home Free!
Dang I'm so happy! I've been eagerly looking forward to watching Roomie review Postmodern Jukebox. I would love to see a dedicated video of him reacting to their songs, or doing a vs video with them against another cover band!
I was hoping this time PMJ will get included and i'm not disappointed. One of their best cover ever.
i really loved when harry styles covered "You're Still The One" with Kacey Musgraves. its so good
God I love that pentatonix mix.
Its has been my ringtone for a couple of years already, and i still cant get enough of it!
Who else hadn't heard of Boyce Avenue until Joel's last cover video?
Also that girl in the Creep cover was on American Idol!
She was the girl who sang Lady Gaga's song before it was released
I feel like Boyce Avenue is so much about connecting with the music and I love that!
17:21 Looks like Joel finally found a real happiness moment in his life.
Understandable, Haley Reinhardt will do that to anyone.
Postmodern jukebox, fantastic as always
Can't wait to see him react to other PMJ covers. The voices their singers have are always so unique, the arrangements make even a lame song sound great. I need a dedicated video of Joel having goosebumps for 30 minutes straight :D
Yeah. That moment where he had goosebumps, I was in tears and I've heard that version many times. Hailey has such an amazing voice. I could listen to her forever.
Weirdest thing to watch without sound lmao
I was just listening to Postmodern Jukebox, all covers by Haley, and then I thought "omg what would Roomie say about HER?" So I'm happy this video exists and even more happy that Roomie obviously loves her voice as much as I do 🥰 sharing something with Roomie! Spectacular ❤️
