    Lyrics
    The Chainsmokers- Closer
    Hey, I was doing just fine before I met you
    I drink too much and that's an issue but I'm okay
    Hey, you tell your friends it was nice to meet them
    But I hope I never see them again
    I know it breaks your heart
    Moved to the city in a broke down car
    And four years, no calls
    Now you're looking pretty in a hotel bar
    And I can't stop
    No, I can't stop
    So baby pull me closer in the backseat of your Rover
    That I know you can't afford
    Bite that tattoo on your shoulder
    Pull the sheets right off the corner
    Of the mattress that you stole
    From your roommate back in Boulder
    We ain't ever getting older
    We ain't ever getting older
    We ain't ever getting older
    You look as good as the day I met you
    I forget just why I left you, I was insane
    Stay and play that Blink-182 song
    That we beat to death in Tucson, okay
    I know it breaks your heart
    Moved to the city in a broke down car
    And four years, no call
    Now I'm looking pretty in a hotel bar
    And I can't stop
    No, I can't stop
    So baby pull me closer in the backseat of your Rover
    That I know you can't afford
    Bite that tattoo on your shoulder
    Pull the sheets right off the corner
    Of the mattress that you stole
    From your roommate back in Boulder
    We ain't ever getting older
    We ain't ever getting older
    We ain't ever getting older
    So baby pull me closer in the backseat of your Rover
    That I know you can't afford
    Bite that tattoo on your shoulder
    Pull the sheets right off the corner
    Of the mattress that you stole
    From your roommate back in Boulder
    We ain't ever getting older
    We ain't ever getting older (we ain't ever getting older)
    We ain't ever getting older (we ain't ever getting older)
    We ain't ever getting older (we ain't ever getting older)
    We ain't ever getting older
    We ain't ever getting older
    No we ain't ever getting older

      @agronoxdt 8 років тому +3

      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.

    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 )

      @MuzicDreamer7x 7 років тому +7

      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.
