This totally changes how I feel these lyrics now, and further exemplifies both how Foster the People mastered its irony as well as your own musical abilities. THANK YOU!
Your vocal distribution in the chorus is brilliant. The way you put the extra grit into "Outrun my gun" but finesse the line "faster than my bullet" is just such a great touch.
I searched Spotify for it today during my works beer league hockey games. We play warm ups, intermission and whistle music. I will be playing this song during one of the warmups this week even if just on here. It would really set the tone.
You did it! The "better run, better run" part, slowing down the music then getting it violent again was sick... Adding the breach birth riff was cool too! NICE!
It really does sound like something they would write. If I heard this without knowing it was a fan cover, I'd be fooled into thinking it was actually them. There's so much nuance to this cover.
This is how this song should’ve been performed in the first place. 100% could be a new song that Chevelle just dropped What a masterpiece The lines Better run better run outrun my gun Is such a Chevelle line and the way it’s delivered. Like this is actually a good song as a real song This dude is Uber Talented.
900 people in the comments said this exact same thing. Almost word for word. "Then proceeds to..." Are you all copy each other or do you all have the same exact thoughts independently? Genuine question with just a hint of feeling snarky and annoyed.
How does this dude not only nail the style and sound and feel, he also makes perfect arrangement changes and shifts in timing and tone to make these legitimately good songs. It's kind of bonkers the consistency.
@@macglockylike is an understatement, what you do with these songs is nothing short of amazing and I love every single one. You’re truly one talented individual Mac.
Nobody else quite hits like they do, do they? I usually listen to way heavier music than CheVelle now, but they still *feel* so heavy even with mostly clean vocals and fairly simple instrumentation. I don't know how they do it but I love it.
I would too. I got to have a meet and greet with them at x96 radio station in Utah. My mom won it so we could have a lasting memory to hang on to before “I hit puberty and started to think she wasn’t cool anymore.” We ate pizza with them, probably the most down to earth people. My mom isn’t around anymore, wish I could tell her how much I still cherish and talk about that memory with her. cheVelle will always hold a special place in my heart and I love these covers. Thanks Mac.
Whoever suggested this deserves as much kudos for seeing the perfect match you could create here! The result is dark, brooding and matching the lyrics so well.
Thanks! I’ve always was a fan of chevelle and I like pumped up kicks but have always wondered what the song would sound like in rock form and Mac absolutely delivered!
Holy Crap! You gave this song the angst ti was missing and amplified the psychosis of the person who this song was about. This song is so much more intense and believable. WOW
I never expected this song to fit so well with Chevelle but the lyrics really lend themselves to this genre! Chevelle was a perfect fit. Yeah man, you nailed it.
And that chorus comes in like a ton of bricks, this would absolutely get airplay! Edit: Just played it for my daughter and she said “THAT sounds like it should sound!”
When the video starts with a humble "I can try", you know it's going to be a hit. If ColdFusion wrote "The Impression That I Get" by the Mighty Mighty Bosstones
Love chevelle and while Pete's vocal range can be harder to emulate I think you nailed the style of the music and his singing method. Very nice work my friend
I need you to know that I can't stop listening to your covers, Mr. Glocky. You have 100% been the silver-lining to a very shitty couple of weeks. Thanks, man!
UA-cam is full of very talented people, but Mac you have something special. You are unbelievably talented! Its mind boggling every single time you make a video or even you're own original music you absolutely kill it!
I can’t get enough of this song, it’s amazing in every way, you are a legend sir. I’d love to see a video where you go over your gear you use that gets you that amazing sound!
If you want to hear a good Björk cover, a band called Down and Above covered Joga many years ago. The bassist from that band, Ian Allison, has gone on to have a decent session and social media career.
Not going to lie, i didnt know all the lyrics that song.... damn! I saw Mac and instantly clicked! You are out of this world! Talented as hell! I just keep binging the content, truly amazing! Thank you for bring joy in a tough time 💜😊
If the original had this tone I imagine more people would have realised the song's about a school shooting, which made for really awkward TV adverts back in the day.
"IT WASN'T ME" - Disturbed is streaming on Spotify and Apple Music :)
Already bought it. Thanks man. That song/version kicks @ss
Full version?
awesome!!!
Paused the video to go and find it on Spotify! Too excited to wait the end but I’m back now.
I need this song in my Spotify playlist
"i can try" he said...
my man... you didn't try... you fucking did it...
Seriously this has to be one of the most talented people on UA-cam and he's quite humble
Sounds much better than the original.
Oh and he fuckin nailed it!!
One of the sickest covers I have heard in a while!!!
Awesome
This totally changes how I feel these lyrics now, and further exemplifies both how Foster the People mastered its irony as well as your own musical abilities.
THANK YOU!
I honestly like this version better than the original. Anyone else feeling the same way?
Me too. Another good version of Pumped Up Kicks I'd recommend is by a band called 3Teeth.
Absolutely!
Hard to say. Lol they both so good
Dude I feel the same, this slaps hard
Hell ya!
You single-handedly got me on a Chevelle Binge. Jars is an incredible song that I didn't know existed till yesterday.
I think that song dropped when I was 14. Turning 30 tomorrow and it really hasn't left my playlist
Sci-fi crimes is a great album. My favorite of theirs honestly.
LOVE me some Jars
You should check out "i get it" or "self-destructor" if u havent
@@jonathanrowland9963 I've been listening to Stray Arrows: A Collection of Favorites and all of these are on there. It's all so good.
Your vocal distribution in the chorus is brilliant. The way you put the extra grit into "Outrun my gun" but finesse the line "faster than my bullet" is just such a great touch.
"I can try" proceeds to make one of the best songs I ever heard in my life
Dude. Seriously! 🤣🤣
Word!
To be fair, this guitar hook is literally Breach Birth by CheVelle just in a different key
Wife: “How many times are you going to listen to that song?”
Me: *turns it up even louder*
If Sleep Token wrote “How You Remind Me” by Nickelback
Oooo... yes.
Upvote
Y U P
Yoooo.. this
Ooo I like it!
The way you nail the little nuances of Pete’s vocals is mesmerizing!
If Korn wrote Whip It by Devo
Head's band Love and Death has done this. Sure, it's not Korn, but kinda.
"If Korn wrote Whip It by Devo" yeah this basically already exists! ua-cam.com/video/AqIN6nvkxCs/v-deo.htmlsi=ewKlY72i2ALR6qk7
This!
I love this version better. This needs to be on Spotify too
I searched Spotify for it today during my works beer league hockey games. We play warm ups, intermission and whistle music. I will be playing this song during one of the warmups this week even if just on here. It would really set the tone.
Agreed
Some of his songs are impressive / funny to see the smash up of styles, but this song is so good!
Also Amazon music! I listen to this daily at the moment
Not on UA-cam music yet
You did it! The "better run, better run" part, slowing down the music then getting it violent again was sick... Adding the breach birth riff was cool too! NICE!
Awesome, a prequel to 'Take out the Gunman"
underrated comment
I was thinking the same good catch 🤘
Haha!
Goddamn that song fuckin rules
This was my thoughts exactly
Please add this on Spotify my guy. It's a damn banger that I'd love to add to my Playlist
It bothers me that i cant add it to my playlist on spotify -.-
Same.
I went to my Spotify to find it and was so disappointed it wasn't there!😢 It's so good!
This feels genuinely organic, like there is a world where Chevelle writes exactly this. Another excellent cover, my friend. You have a gift.
It really does sound like something they would write. If I heard this without knowing it was a fan cover, I'd be fooled into thinking it was actually them. There's so much nuance to this cover.
The sound is dead on, but lyrically the song doesn’t fit Chevelle. They don’t usually write with such apparent themes
Agreed, lyrically wouldn't be something they'd write, as for matching the style, that is super dead on, hahaha.
This is how this song should’ve been performed in the first place. 100% could be a new song that Chevelle just dropped What a masterpiece The lines Better run better run outrun my gun Is such a Chevelle line and the way it’s delivered. Like this is actually a good song as a real song This dude is Uber Talented.
Mac: "Umm...I...I'll...I can try." Then proceeds to absolutely destroy it! Well done!
Godlike
Epic.
I think he wants a break from the Chevelle covers
Seriously. Idk guys I'll give it a shot.... then spits out another masterpiece.

Bro how the hell you make this masterpiece so freaking fast?!?! And thank you for this.
Glad you like! Good suggestion 🤘

@@macglockylike is an understatement, what you do with these songs is nothing short of amazing and I love every single one. You’re truly one talented individual Mac.
@@ChrisTopherBunnell by P!ATD because the more cursed probably the better
@@stegwisethat honestly sounds so tough to create. Haha
wow the lyrics with this style it’s awesome we need this on spotify
This is a whole new song, seriously. The vibe matches the lyrics and it just makes it so bone chillingly dark. Kudos man, what another epic.
If A Perfect Circle wrote “everybody wants to go to heaven “ by Glenn Yarborough & The Limeliters. Keep it up, this is amazing!
If A Perfect Circle wrote Imagine by John Lennon… oh wait 🤔⭕️
The vibe here matches the lyrics much better than the original. Most excellent.
The original seemed like they might be trying to disguise the lyrics enough to get airplay
Exactly
That's the best thing about the original though, its this stupidly catchy pop song...then you actually listen to the lyrics.
Hell yeah!!
The vibes from the original Pumped Up Kicks was entirely intentional. That was kind of the entire point of it. That said, this bangs.
“I can try” proceeds to create an absolutely incredible cover of this song, I’d argue better than the original. Subscribed. Amazing.
Way fucking better.
Bout to say the same… “I can try”
Immediately rips my face off
I would pay for more chevelle covers. I crave their sound. Their already vast discography is not enough for me. I NEED MORE!!
💯
Nobody else quite hits like they do, do they? I usually listen to way heavier music than CheVelle now, but they still *feel* so heavy even with mostly clean vocals and fairly simple instrumentation. I don't know how they do it but I love it.

Thanks Mac.
I've seen them a few times now and they are legitimately one of my favorite live acts.
@@iamsospicy3309❤❤❤
the "better run faster than my gun" line is such a Chevelle line
Probably because of take out the gunman
I think that’s what makes it, because it sounds straight out of a chevelle song
That's the part that sounds most like Chevelle
No no no, I got it, my dude. If Metallica wrote “Photograph” by Nickleback.
Yessssss this would be awesome
Whoever suggested this deserves as much kudos for seeing the perfect match you could create here! The result is dark, brooding and matching the lyrics so well.
Thanks! I’ve always was a fan of chevelle and I like pumped up kicks but have always wondered what the song would sound like in rock form and Mac absolutely delivered!
This is by far My favorite cover you have done.
Island in the sun in the style of system of a down
@@InfectiousBeef Oh, yes, please! I love both of those bands!
You nailed it, both musically and vocally. Sounds like Breach Birth meets Pumped up Kicks. Huge Chevelle fan so I actually dig this over the original.
This actually made me fall back in love with Chevelle. They used to be heavy in my playlist in high school. Dude, you nailed it.
They're still heavy.
He meant they were in his playlist a lot
If Breaking Benjamin wrote Strife by Trivium.
Excellent cover!
How about if Deftones wrote Iris by Goo Goo Dolls?
No
@@kchannel9464yes
Yes
Hell yeah I asked the same thing
Yes
This was so damn good! Thank you for bringing this version into existence!
Holy Crap! You gave this song the angst ti was missing and amplified the psychosis of the person who this song was about. This song is so much more intense and believable. WOW
Chevelle just has a smooth yet hard sound. Not many rock bands can pull that off. Deftones is definitely king of it.
That tone just reminds me of vena sera that’s so good dude 🤘🤘
My fav album of theirs 😅
@@macglocky haha cool. Same.
…my vote’s for a SOAD v. of Brainiac or The Fad if you’re down 🙏
The melodies on that album are just not human
Vena Sera is the goat
Oh absolutely has that Vena Sera sound
This is the best thing I’ve heard all year. Thanks, from some random dude in Alabama
I never expected this song to fit so well with Chevelle but the lyrics really lend themselves to this genre! Chevelle was a perfect fit. Yeah man, you nailed it.
I've listened to Chevelle since I was 12. Now 33.
The little breaths, grunts, etc... You NAILED it
Stayed til the end just to hear him rip “faster than my bullet!” Cheers!
And that chorus comes in like a ton of bricks, this would absolutely get airplay!
Edit: Just played it for my daughter and she said “THAT sounds like it should sound!”
It really does! Just played it for my mother and she got goosebumps everywhere
Chevelle needs to cover this immediately
If this song just appeared in my playlist, I would have thought Chevelle released a new album 😂
Gotta get this one to Spotify! I can’t get enough of it!
I got legit goosebumps! Well done!
When the video starts with a humble "I can try", you know it's going to be a hit.
If ColdFusion wrote "The Impression That I Get" by the Mighty Mighty Bosstones
I’ve learned when this man says he’s going to try, he means he’s gonna try to blow my speakers!
You're single handedly getting me back into Chevelle
Nice Breach Birth style on the main riff, Vitamin R vibe in the chorus, and Well Enough Alone rhythm in the bridge.
Holy Shit! That was actually written like a masterpiece. I was just mesmerized the whole time!
Waiting on the full version!!!
S-Their! This has taken my #1 spot of your covers.
Nothing beats his Disturbed cover
My favorite cover he's done is actually another Chevelle cover but of Billie Eilish lol
@@FluffyBunny9002 That one is such a banger.
"Umm, I can try"
Proceeds to absolutely crush it.
If... Type O Negative wrote M.I.A.'s "Paper Planes".
PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE
This dude is extremely talented, but he's not gonna be able to pull off Peter Steele.
This version brings the gravity of the lyrics into the light.
Sounds good...just like Chevelle man. More Chevelle covers plz!
Agreed.
Another absolute BOP you have graced us with. Thank you!!
This man does it all.
Have been listening to this on repeat for an hour. Ive liked shared and followed you on UA-cam and every other media i use. So good man.
MR GLOCKY PUT THIS ON SPOTIFY AND MY LIFE IS YOURS
I need this in my playlist! Your Chevelle covers are top notch!
This is excellent! Guitar tone is a little bit of Point #1 vibes
Absolutely insane, as usual.
This is absolutely amazing dude. I wish this was on Spotify
I love how like it's a mix of, vitamin R and Emotional drought. while remaining unique at the same time, buddy, Great Job
Can you just stop making me have to say i have a new favorite with every release Mac... its exhausting 😩😅🫠🤘🏻
Why would you want the man to slow down? Let the creative juices flow at whatever pace he wants.
Sheesh, it's a joke.@@MatthewReid-ww6qt
@@MatthewReid-ww6qt me when i take stuff seriously
Dude, another BANGER! This is an absolute gift to the world. I keep repeating it.
It's crazy how you can always match the voices of the bands you cover! Awesome mix, as always!!!
Love chevelle and while Pete's vocal range can be harder to emulate I think you nailed the style of the music and his singing method. Very nice work my friend
If Disturbed wrote Bootylicious by Destiny’s Child
💀
You're insane
omg
YESSSSSSSS
Send this one to the top, we need it in this timeline!
This guy should have a music contract. He sounds amazing.
Yo this is once again fucking incredible if you made a Spotify/Souncloud playlist of all your remakes you would get infinite play
Some are on spotify already!
And the Disturbed cover for "It wasn't me" just launched on Spotify so eyyy
Literally every rendition is flawless.
Dude this is whole another level. This is straight up just great.
I need you to know that I can't stop listening to your covers, Mr. Glocky. You have 100% been the silver-lining to a very shitty couple of weeks.

Dude if all of these covers were on Spotify I would be so stoked!!
Could you do "Venus as a boy" by Björk in Deftones style?
Now that would kick ass
If you want to hear a good Björk cover, a band called Down and Above covered Joga many years ago. The bassist from that band, Ian Allison, has gone on to have a decent session and social media career.
This is one of my favorite covers of yours if this goes on Spotify I am downloading it IMMEDIATELY
Not going to lie, i didnt know all the lyrics that song.... damn! I saw Mac and instantly clicked! You are out of this world! Talented as hell! I just keep binging the content, truly amazing! Thank you for bring joy in a tough time 💜😊
You took a song that i dont like and made something ive listened to 6 times since the start of my shift. Good shit.
This version seriously made those lyrics so much more intense! That song seriously just gave me chills
I can't wait for this to be on spotify.
Banger after banger after banger. Please don’t stop❤
This is so incredibly spot-on dude. I love it.
Why. Why are you so good at this?
Outrageously good. I swear every one of your remakes would be a rock top 40 radio hit.
Knocking it out of the park as usual man, bravo! 👏
Making Mid tier jams, into pure fucking gold . . . and while wearing the CKY shirt. Mac GLocky, where you been my whole life. . .
I can hear a bit of Gavin Rossdale in your voice on this song. You should do some Bush.
ahh good, knew there had to be someone else hearing Gav
This is by far the COOLEST "If They Wrote This" that you have ever ever done imo.........
Holy shit! You are a GENIUS! This cover is astounding!
Wooow he took the assignment way farther than i expected
On point as ALWAYS 👍
I keep playing this on repeat. I think you did a really good job with this
I found this on Reels.
You fuckin nailed it man. I love this. I've had it on repeat.
