I KNEW IT ALL ALONG - Beard Guy is omnipotent, seeing through our eyes as well as his own, the eagles' eyes as well as the bears' the eyes of our ancestors & the eyes of our descendants 🤔🤔👏👏
@walkofftheearth you guys are extremely talented. I had been listening to one of your covers (one from Gotye songs) Somebody I Used To Know awesome work. RIP Mike Taylor “BeardedGuy”...
This is the first WOTE cover I have absolutely no frame of reference for.. But I am pissed off that they lip synced this video, unlike most previous cover videos. This was so inorganic I automatically like it less than any other cover. But I am sure I am in a very small minority who feel this way.
Agronox DT to be fair tho, it is still their voices produced in the studio...im assuming they just wanted to account for the sped up parts near the end
totally NO ... the whole thing about WOTE is that they can play in the moment ... each one of them can PLAY any instrument at ANY time !!! WOTE are Musicians and Singers and a band which INCLUDES their techs ( YAY WOTE Techs)
I love how they make anything and everything into an instrument. If you listen closely with both head phones you can hear each stroke of the paint brush against the canvass. Simply soothing and beautiful.
Just ridiculous how much better this is than the original. For a relatively recent song, this takes me back to teenaged summers for some reason. Hooky, melancholy, awesome.
i love you all, but it's always a treat when Sarah's part kicks in. i love band that transition between male/female and different pitch voices as always, much love from jersey! =))
DrawnSteelHero I'm not a fan of most of these songs originally, but they bring something different to them. they make me like the originals a little more than I would.
DevinAK49 Sometimes, they actually make me like the originals *less*. Happy is a good example: I love the original, but after hearing WotE and Parachute cover it, the Pharell version seems somewhat... lacking.
Ok I just love you PERIOD. Gianni I know you can feel all the italian feeling coming from here 😂 however you guys are so great and do such creative things like never before and I'm like oh gosh I want their music with me every time, so thank you. You really improve people's lives
Recently became a fan of this band. I love their creativity and sense of fun. Very talented and since I am a new fan, I must say, my condolences for the loss of Mike Taylor. He was definitely a unique human. Never stop doing what you guys do. Because there is no one like you.
Okay, so, the thing that is so wonderful about you guys is that 1) you make great music while 2) producing something that is visually creative and 3) always holds my interest. I like your originals and covers about equally, because you always bring something new to the cover.
Yo, dudes in the comments, you absolutely HAVE TO try this. You're gonna love it: 1) Open in another tab UA-cam and search for the original of this song 2) Pause the original song exactly after the guy says: "Hey" 3) Play the cover and go to the other tab. 4) Wait until the Cover Song say "Hey" and click play on the original song 5) Let them be synchronized 6)??? 7) Profit
Hi, I read your comment and tried it out. It's pretty cool, but found it pretty annoying to try sync. So I went ahead and synced both songs in audacity, the whole thing (incl & after 2nd verse). Sorry if it's a bit jumpy and cuts, I've never done anything like this before. But here's the song: clyp.it/bdmi3m22 ( Soundcloud deleted for copyright sorry )
I got lucky and had a perfect sync on my 2nd try. Sounds incredible - even the de-synch at the second verse just creates a nice layering effect!!!! More people should try
I think they shot this at a higher frame rate, changed most of it to around 24 fps post processing then even lower during the parts of the Kazoo? since it still matches the music.. I dunno tho, just an idea lol. Wanna know too!
It is most likely done through motion stop photography. Sort of like a time lapse that acts more like a picture book. Separate the sound from the actual video, put the pictures in place of the 60 fps video, overlay the sound from the original video, and ta da.
8 years after this video was posted, I realised that the chorus looks off because it’s sped up; ah well! Another successful day of listening to the old WOTE and finding something new to obsess over
This isn't even a song that I can just play in the background because I keep wanting to look at their amazing performance. LOVE WOTE and their harmonizing and their beautiful version of this song.

That kazoo-trumpet thing that Beard Guy did at the end is about as close to his voice as we've ever gotten in a music video.
Party Rock Anthem.
Watch material girl
The Lord Char In Material Girl, I think you're talking about the didgeridoo at the end, but I don't think didgeridoos require voice.
DrawnSteelHero Oh, my gosh! I've seen that one before, but I didn't notice he was singing harmony in the background! WOAH! Thanks!!!

i just realized who you are. YOU made all the way, space is cool, drunk frat boy and the just do it song thing. You are super cool

i'm absolutely stunned by the number of songs that are BETTER when covered by WOTE. and not a little better.. A LOT BETTER. incredible.
This is the first WOTE cover I have absolutely no frame of reference for.. But I am pissed off that they lip synced this video, unlike most previous cover videos. This was so inorganic I automatically like it less than any other cover. But I am sure I am in a very small minority who feel this way.

Do u have a list of those songs that're actually better as WOTE covers? I wanna listen to them ^_^
I find the same with a lot of Postmodern Jukebox...

R.I.P Mike =((
You're always the best
Can’t watch this without getting choked up. Miss you Beard Guy. I hope you’re singing with the angels.
The fact that this was filmed in halftime and sped up is beyond amazing. Well done!
Nobody else's videos look or sound like yours. This is what the VMAs should be about.
4 years later, and this is still super creative and a bop.
I think this is one of the cover songs that is better than the original.. I love this : )
Honestly, I think the *majority* of their covers are better than the originals.

That's the way it goes with WOTE...their covers make the best of most songs.
2021 and still loving it. RIP Bearded Guy.
walk off the Earth always do better covers than the originals. I watched them live with my boyfriend a few years ago, they were incredible!
Hi beautiful Eva. How are you doing today??
I know I'm old(er) but that song has a real Tracy Chapman (Fast Car) feel to it.
yeah! I can see where you get that. It has the same story telling quality and its basically just the dance version of that song? kinda? lol
Didn't think of that but now you mention it totally!
I can see it! very true!!
After reading that my brain just went "OOHHHHHH". Good call!
Andrew Fenn :)
Do they sing 'somebody I used to know'? If not it kinda reminds me of them.
yes they did that cover ^^
On one guitar
Did they sing Somebody That I Used To Know you ask? Isn't that basically the cover that made them go viral and famous?
Ohhhhhhhh yea right! My bad. I just remembered😂😂
They've done a lot of music that's great. Check 'em out.

great cover you are best :-)

Just story his name is Mike Taylor a member of the music group Walk Off The Earth. He is the one with facial hair.
What is your first language?
it took me almost a month to realize that Joel and Sarah are wearing the same shirt
oh my gosh! they are. i didnt see it either, you aint alone
she's wearing a dress though.
oh! well cool.
Sarah is actually pretty short so what is a (men's) shirt on Joel is a dress on Sarah
oh! of course! hahaha thanks for clearing that up

"Excellent use of kazoo!" - something I never thought I'd say
I luv how he's painting RIH he will always live on through these music videos as a legend
what's the video editing effect called when they play the kazoos?
My guess would be they change the pitch in editing...
I think they shot this at a higher frame rate, changed most of it to around 24 fps post processing then even lower during the parts of the Kazoo? since it still matches the music.. I dunno tho, just an idea lol. Wanna know too!
they probably played it 4 times slower at that point and then sped it up
For music videos like these it looks cool. Dance videos it looks cheap.
It is most likely done through motion stop photography. Sort of like a time lapse that acts more like a picture book. Separate the sound from the actual video, put the pictures in place of the 60 fps video, overlay the sound from the original video, and ta da.

yes I know - he is the coolest guy :)
no he has talent, did you not see the paint brush hes painting and he also plays instruments
yes! he did it in MS Paint :)
