That reaction would be priceless, first have someone listening to they entire cover album and then just show them Pepermint Creams or Everybody Shut Up.
This is the same band that wrote songs titled Dinosaur Laser Fight, Everybody Shut Up (I Have an Erection) and FYI I want to F your A. And here they are perfectly covering one of the most emotional and socially profound songs ever written.
Not sure if you guys will ever see this message but I really wanted to send it. I just listened to your cover of Wish You Were Here and I cried. My father was a huge fan of Pink Floyd and that song in particular was one of his favorites. He passed away when I was 17 last September and both last Christmas and this one have been hard but a friend sent me a link to your cover and having it out on Christmas day brought back so many memories. I love game grumps and NSP so much and I can't thank you enough behind tears for releasing this song today. I will always remember this year cause since meeting my girlfriend, also a huge fan of Game Grumps, my life has been getting so much better. My dad will always be a best friend to me and as big of an inspiration as you and all the Grumps are to me. Love you guys so so much and thank you again for the amazing song. Loving and devoted fan, Richard Jones
I'm sorry about your loss, friend. My condolences. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas, and all the best in the new year. Person from the internets, Greg :)
It's the hope of every parent that their child will grow up into someone wonderful. I think your father has a lot to be proud of. I am sorry for your loss. Keep being you. It's what you do best.
Jaydoggy531 Thank you. I'm currently working and paying for college to study film. I know it's dumb but I hope to one day make at least some small mark on UA-cam.
2 whole years later and this cover still gets me emotional. I saw NSP in concert a year ago and they performed this song towards the end. Before they played it, Danny gave the most beautiful, heart warming speech I have ever heard. He mentioned that we all have someone out there that is no longer with us, and that although life goes on, we still wish we had these people by our side. He dedicated this song to all of them, and I lost it. It was such an amazing set. I'm listening to it today because I just lost my great grandmother, and this song brings back amazing, happy memories to me... Jeez now I'm crying while typing this... For all those reading this, just know that life is precious, life is beautiful, and I'm glad you're all here
I like their slower songs best. It's so soulful, full of genuine talent and refined artistry, you get a chance to listen to Danny's sweet voice really work and let loose all at once... It's all just good stuff I'd love to see more.
Salty Pear if you want a whole album that's kinda like this with Danny look up the Northern Lights LP. It's an older band of his but has some great musicality and soul.
This morning i lost my dog who was my only friend for years and i couldn't cry. I was so hurt that not a single tear came to my eyes. Then i listened to this, first time in half a year and i cried like a baby. I repeated the song ten times and i just couldn't stop. I was so relieved. Game Grumps helped me cope with my depression since i first started watching and this song spoke to me in a way i tought nothing could. Thank you for making everybodys life a little better and never stop doing awesome things! Rest in peace buddy.
My girlfriend and I have a special connection to Pink Floyd, it was the first band I ever shared with her. There was a point in our relationship when we couldn't communicate clearly. Verbal communication has always been difficult for us. The original version of this song meant a lot to both of us, but on our two year anniversary I rented out this dance hall, lit candles and set up a playlist for us to slow dance to, it was my gift to her, let the music say what I couldn't. I chose this version of the song over the original, and to this day if either of us hears it we cry and thank god we found each other.
When I had my daughter, she got really sick and we were in the hospital for daaaays... she cried a lot and was very fussy. I tried finding songs to calm her and I stumbled onto this, it was the only thing to get her calm enough to sleep. It played on repeat for almost 3 days... that was 2 years ago and this is still my favorite cover of this song. I sometimes play it at night so she can sleep. I am forever grateful for this cover ❤️❤️❤️
It's refreshing to hear Danny without any multitrack layering so you get to hear his beautiful voice really clearly. SGB on the guitar were great, but Brian on the grand piano makes me hope they do an "unplugged" cover sometime with just Brian on an acoustic piano and Danny singing with no reverb or anything. Also, Dan in a ponytail, 10/10 Danny Wouldbang.
danny is like the serj tankian of comedy bands. his voice is so impeccably versatile, being both funny and operatic in such amazing ways, while maintaining a smooth voice. also, brian is such an amazing pianist. his performance in this song is off the freakin charts.
I feel sorry for you guys. mines not exactly dead. but he is to me. and my moms already dying. my brothers got suicidal thoughts. My other brother moved out. I'm really all alone. we all are sometimes.
As a rule, Pink Floyd covers are a no no for me. However, having just gotten into NSP, I take that back. This is just majestic, beautiful and just so filled with raw emotion.
Nearly every musician got their start trying to make their own personal cover of someone else's work because they were so inspired. I realize why Floyd is so important. But they aren't untouchable. No one should be considered as such. In the CD's notes, Danny said he felt inspired by his Granddad, a man who survived the holocaust and invented medical equipment. Not a bad tribute, if you ask me. Covering Pink Floyd is okay if he's so inspired by such a great person.
@@Jaydoggy531 i mean personally id feel honoured that someone has chosen your song to commemorate such a strong, influential person (dans grandfather).
I've probably commented this on this video before, but this is my favorite song that NSP covered. my dad passed away in 2014 when I was sixteen and Pink Floyd was one of his favorite bands, this was his favorite song by them. once, long before I was born, he and my mom were at a bar and he sang this on the karaoke stage with his back to the crowd because he couldn't look at them and sing- I wasn't told this until long after he passed away but it made this song a lot more special. I found the Grumps and subsequently NSP not long after my dad passed and they really helped me get through one of the worst times of my life- and continue to help me on a daily basis. when I saw NSP had covered Wish You Were Here, it felt... appropriate, for lack of a better word- it was even posted two days before the second anniversary of my dad's passing. Danny reminds me a lot of my dad in that they had a very similar personality and enjoyed the same bands (Rush was my dad's favorite, too) and I genuinely believe my dad would have loved the Grumps, especially Danny... he would have loved this cover, too. every time I listen to this song I get emotional, but when I listen to this cover I full out cry. I'm just grateful that it exists. yeah.
Pink Floyd is my favorite band. i own every album up until the final cut on vinyl, and the last few albums i have on CD. ive seen roger waters perform the wall live, and im pretty much into anything and everything Pink Floyd. with that being said , this is the best Pink Floyd cover ive ever heard. they definately do it justice.
stoodle bop Lucky, Pink Floyd is my favorite band as well, I saw the recent concert movie at Pompeii David Gilmour had, and after a song I almost clapped thinking I was there.
Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon is one of my favorite albums ever... Although this is not part of said album, it is still one of my favorite Pink Floyd songs. Thanks everyone at NSP and Merry Christmas!
I cannot find the words to express how much I love Danny. No matter what happens to me, how bad or painful it gets. All it takes is something from him to make it better. A song, or even hearing him tell a story. Danny is one of the most amazing people on this planet. Keep everything up man.
I've always been a fan of NSP, and I especially love the Under the Covers albums (I even own the signed physical copy of Vol. 2!), but this is the one song I skip, and the only video I haven't watched. It's not because I don't love it, because I do, but because this song makes me cry like a baby every single time I hear it for personal reasons. But today I'm gonna give it a shot, I'm gonna finally watch and listen to the entire video, because even if it brings some tears to the surface, it's worth it.
I know it's pointless to leave one comment in 7k on a vid that is years old, but this version holds more raw emotion than the original. It has more melancholy when the original provides a generous amount of emptiness in its tone. Both are fantastic, and this is exactly why covers exist, to give listeners a new take on something so perfect. Thanks you guys.
Ihram ybaR well said. So many people are caught up on deciding which is better, rather than praising the cover for what it is and in it's own right and as it's own, individual piece. Personally I do prefer this version, but that's only because I am not a Pink Floyd fan and not so fond of their sound, but I don't view this cover as a cover, per se. It's its own song, and I just happen to like this song more than another.
The emptiness certainly makes sense in the original Pink Floyd version, as this is a song about death. But this version's louder instruments and harmony really do bring a different take.
I have been a fan of Pink Floyd my whole life and I can honestly say this beautiful rendition moves me unlike any other version I have ever heard. Danny and Brian playing together at the end is spectacular. Super Guitar Brothers did a magnificent job as well
This song really struck home for me. I just recently lost my Grandma & Grandpa a few months ago. First my Grandpa & literally a few weeks later, my Grandma, both from cancer. So this will be the first Christmas we celebrate without them. Thanks NSP & Happy Holidays! :)
I had a relationship with someone that loved Pink Floyd and was the first to introduce their music to me. I loved their music for a long time. The ending of the relationship tore my whole world apart and did the same to anything I associated with it, including all the songs I loved by Pink Floyd. I put off listening to/watching this video for longer than I want to admit, as not to bring back bad memories.. but just now, hearing Dan sing this song.. it brought tears of joy, rather than sadness for the first time in years. Thank you for that, it means more than you guys will ever know.
First Name Last Name I think dinosaur laser fight could get a radio censored version and the world would be a better place. Fricken and gosh darn have to be on the radio by now right?
i know you guys probably wont see this but...i just found out my parents are splitting up and. this is one of my favorite songs and you guys just....made this a little bit easier. thank you.
I get Dan is goofing like The Lonely Islands with NSP but damn, I got goosebumps, I don't particularly like Pink Floyd covers because I love Pink Floyd so much that very few covers scratch the original but damn! I loved this
I am a very silent fan but this is the last song I ever sang with my grandmother that raised me and I am giving huge thumbs up for nailing the feeling of the song. Anyone can sing notes, but hitting that deep feel of this song is hard; and not gonna lie, it made me tear up. Way to hit me in the feels NSP.
Dan, you have a beautiful voice. Thank you for all that you do here on nsp, and game grumps. And thanks to everyone else who was a part of this, too. This is an amazing cover, and you've done this song a great justice. Love you guys
So, so you think you can tell Heaven from hell Blue skies from pain Can you tell a green field From a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil? Do you think you can tell? Did they get you to trade Your heroes for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change? Did you exchange A walk on part in the war For a lead role in a cage? How I wish, how I wish you were here We're just two lost souls Swimming in a fish bowl Year after year Running over the same old ground And how we found The same old fears Wish you were here
my dad passed away five years ago (coming this february in a couple weeks) and this was one of his favorite songs, as well as the parting song at his funeral. i avoided listening to the song for a while as it brought a lot of emotional pain with it, but i finally decided to listen to this cover and i think i needed this, a lot. it’s helped me with so much. thank you so much Danny and everyone else who made this video happen, i love you all.
I've got the autographed CD and I listen to it at work every day. I work in manufacturing with older guys who listened to all these songs their entire life so I have given them a fresh perspective on some of their old familiar tunes. Thank you guys so much for this album, it has given me countless hours of enjoyment. Ninja Sex Party, Danny, Brian, thanks guys, on a personal level. I hope you have a wonderful Holiday surrounded by those you love, and you can share some memories of those we all wish were still here. - Caleb
Danny is the part of the reason I want to start doing music with my friend, we both like music like this, but also punk rock/pop punk, so we want to make a cover album of our favorite punk songs. But Danny has such an amazing voice, and an astounding confidence about him that it really made me feel like I could do stuff like this too. He's a huge inspiration, and I just hope I can also do what I love for a living, and that I can someday be successful
I know you’ll probably never see this but this cover got me through the worst break up of my life. In 2 years I went from this song feeling heart shattering to a comforting nostalgia. Every time I get sad about what happened I turn this on and remind myself to not trade my walk on part in a war for the lead role in a cage. Truly thank you for putting your heart into this.
I've always loved this song, it always brings a tear to my eye because it was played at the beginning of my Dad's funeral, this version is truly amazing.
I loved this cover album. This song in particular was very well done. Keep up the amazing work. And if you ever do any more classic rock covers, I'd love to hear some Led Zeppelin or Black Sabbath.
Pink Floyd was one of my dads favorite bands and this song was always a way for us to connect. He passed away in 2017 and this song still makes me cry. This is such a beautiful cover and I wish my dad could've gotten to hear it.
My dad loved this band, these songs, this was his music. Now it's my music, now it's something I listen to, and I think of him when I hear this music, now made for me. Thank you guys, for bringing this music to our generation on, because unlike our loved ones, memories and music never dies.
I'm a 54 year old man who grew up on Pink Floyd, here because my daughter is in love with someone she calls, "Danny Sex-Bang". I'm speechless. The song is about pain, loss, & grief. AND HE NAILED IT TO THE WALL WITH AN EXCLAMATION POINT!! Well done, well fu***ng done.
Katy Amsden personally I think shine on you crazy diamond is the best song on wish you were here followed closely by welcome to the machine and have a cigar. Wish you were here is amazing.. hell the entire album is God tier lol
I just meant the NSP 'Under the Covers' CD :) I haven't listened to a lot of Pink Floyd in general but considering how much I love this song, I'm definitely going to check out some more of their music!
I lost my mom to COVID-19 back in June after a 51-day battle. And every single day, I wish she was here. This song, your wonderful cover in particular, helps me be closer to her. Thank you.
Having just lost a pet bird, this song surely does help sooth the soul. Thank you Danny and Brian for helping a weary soul mend a wound in the soul that was thought to be irreversible. Just know you're both fantastic and I appreciate your work.
last christmas, we were given a reunion between jon and arin. and this year we have this masterpiece of a cover. it just goes to show that amazing people like the grumps exist in our life. merry christmas, to all the lovelies out there. ^_^
I am a guitarist (I play electric, but I have a hollowbody), and the minute my friend showed me this, my guitar was in my hands, playing and singing along. This song is a masterpiece. a classic. a LEGEND. Great work guys!
Pink Floyd is easily in my top 5 favorite bands, and Danny and Brian are easily in my top 10 favorite people, so this video is easily in my top favorite things ever. Also, Super Guitar Bros. Fuck yeah.
Guys, I saw a post on Instagram regarding this video that brought this to my mind. Wasn't everybody begging for this to come out and pushing them to get the rights for it? If so, why does it only have half a million views? That's the least any of their music videos have gotten, and that's sad. You pushed them so much to get this video out and then you didn't watch it. It deserves more views. Brian snoring has more views than this, and we need to change that, so tell everybody you know about this video. It needs to be remembered.
randomnesswithryan Dude, I'm a huge fan and own all their albums. I'm subbed to this channel and for some weird reason, I never got this in my subscription feed. This is literally my first time watching this.
Listening to this still, just about once a week. I've said it once and I'll say it again, NSP can turn already perfection into something even better. This may be the best cover ever.
I love that NSP has the power and influence to get 1M people to listen and enjoy some pink floyd in 2017.. and that goes with all of the covers they have been doing. Bringing the classics back to a new light. Incredible work.
Imagine this being your first NSP song, and then listening to their other albums after this.
Carl it was
Carl I actually am about to lmao
That reaction would be priceless, first have someone listening to they entire cover album and then just show them Pepermint Creams or Everybody Shut Up.
you called it this is my first song and my god it is beautiful
It was my first song...
These are the guys that talk about butts right?
EvenFlow406 And dicks, can't forget about dicks.
brian has a phd tho, never forget the phd.
PhD, STD.. he's still a ninja-dad. More than most can hope for.
Audrey's a lucky kid.
@sam chilton
STD? Sexualy transmited desease??? Wat? xD
This is the same band that wrote songs titled Dinosaur Laser Fight, Everybody Shut Up (I Have an Erection) and FYI I want to F your A. And here they are perfectly covering one of the most emotional and socially profound songs ever written.

Are these tears amusing to you, UA-cam?
I think UA-cam just can't take a band called 'ninja sex party' serious... I'm disappointed
Yes
😂😂😂
Aw. I know man. I know.
I call it a cryboner.
Danny is literally one of the coolest people on the planet. I wanna be able to tell him that in person some day
Fangirl Armada agreed.
go to a pax that will have him and the grumps like pax west
James Chapman why'd they change it from pax prime?
It's not even just his attitude, it's his approach to life. He's so chill and takes such joy in it. It's an inspiration.
will be be at vidcon?
Not sure if you guys will ever see this message but I really wanted to send it.
I just listened to your cover of Wish You Were Here and I cried. My father was a huge fan of Pink Floyd and that song in particular was one of his favorites. He passed away when I was 17 last September and both last Christmas and this one have been hard but a friend sent me a link to your cover and having it out on Christmas day brought back so many memories.

I'm sorry about your loss, friend. My condolences. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas, and all the best in the new year.
Person from the internets,
Greg :)
It's the hope of every parent that their child will grow up into someone wonderful.
I think your father has a lot to be proud of. I am sorry for your loss. Keep being you. It's what you do best.
Jaydoggy531 Thank you. I'm currently working and paying for college to study film. I know it's dumb but I hope to one day make at least some small mark on UA-cam.
You will. And when you do, I shall look out for you. Will it be on the account you are commenting with?
Dude, same story here, same age and everything!
I still can't believe that these are the same guys that wrote a song about having sex with furniture
Crystal Von Vanity comedians can pull off the saddest songs. Look up Axis of Awesome, and look at their cover of "Transgender Dysphoria Blues".
Crystal Von Vanity i love that they can show how talented and diverse they are with the material they put out. It's fantastic.
Crystal Von Vanity this was a cover, though
Алекс Кет Bo Burnham?
Nin10Boy 6464 BO BURNHAM
These guys should cover, like, every single song that has ever existed.
Ronald Reagan's Bastard child I'd sign that petition
Song, okay, so no Justin Bieber or Kanye, cause I personally refuse to call that music.
Could you imagine Danny covering Queen? Hell yeah.
Okay, but like. . .Danny covering Starbomb.
especially cupcakke's entire career history
This song shows just how great of a singer Danny really is.
Dragonmaster 1835 yeah... I love his voice so much
Misunderstanding is even better. I _so_ want a video of that.
Floris Bordewijk
I don't think Danny's voice is appropriate for this song. Too feathery.
Alex Ehler maybe it doesn't quite fit this song, but that doesn't make it any less pleasant to listen to
if you haven't listened to Skyhill, I thoroughly recommend it
It's so good that NSP can go from comedic music to covers like this and take on me and perform it flawlessly. I have goosebumps
You mean gooseGRUMPS
*Tears roll down your freinds face*
"Who covered this song?"
Me: "Ninja Sex Party"
Freind: "wait what?"
That's the reaction I got from people too.
That's funny
Half the reason i love them so much
"oh, uh.. haven't heard of them.." is what I usually get lol
its either that or
"......oh?"
2 whole years later and this cover still gets me emotional. I saw NSP in concert a year ago and they performed this song towards the end. Before they played it, Danny gave the most beautiful, heart warming speech I have ever heard. He mentioned that we all have someone out there that is no longer with us, and that although life goes on, we still wish we had these people by our side.

For all those reading this, just know that life is precious, life is beautiful, and I'm glad you're all here
Such an underrated comment, made me cry.
Im so glad you're here ❤
What? A ponytail? But Dan, I thought nothing could contain the beastly Judaism that lies within.
*REECHHECHEHRHGHEFHEHTHHFEH* _bagels_

Alexia's Shado It's not their song.
Alexia's Shado yeah... that's Pink Floyd... you know...
No, it's their cover. It IS their song choice, voices, stylings, etc.
Alexia's Shado that's not how it works.
Does it matter though?That's the real question- the meaning of Alexia's Shado's Comment was clear, pedantry often doesn't further discussion.
The perfect Christmas present from my favourite duo, Brian and Not Brian
Well, you're not wrong.
Brian and the Jew
Brian and not so Brian
Happy birthday Jesus
Brian and the funky bunch
Is that Brian from game grumps on the piano? He's really good, he should join the band. I'd almost say he's better than Ninja Brian.
JackBluebee y'know Brian does have a PhD
...which we all know makes you automatically good at playing music.
I really hope all of you know that Brian from the Game Grumps is Ninja Brian
JackBluebee ninja Brian is Brian wecht from game grumps

This is a cover of a song. By Pink Floyd
Salty Pear if you want a whole album that's kinda like this with Danny look up the Northern Lights LP. It's an older band of his but has some great musicality and soul.
Should not talk for all of us.
the album under the covers is good for covers like this
This morning i lost my dog who was my only friend for years and i couldn't cry. I was so hurt that not a single tear came to my eyes. Then i listened to this, first time in half a year and i cried like a baby. I repeated the song ten times and i just couldn't stop. I was so relieved.

Andris Pethő I love my doggo 😢 sorry for your loss
Andris Pethő doggo don did got fucked up
Wow. This is so heartbreaking and warming at the same time. Though it’s 8 months later, so sorry for your loss. Hope everything’s doing well.
I survived the video without tears, but this comment sent me over the edge.
Your buddy is hopping about cloudy fields now
My girlfriend and I have a special connection to Pink Floyd, it was the first band I ever shared with her. There was a point in our relationship when we couldn't communicate clearly.

That's beautiful man
Beautiful. Keep working on talking to her, man.
Bro, you should marry her. 😭💫
Music is a wonderful force, my friend. Keep on rockin on!
so fucking beautiful
I don't normally like covers, but you guys did this song justice. I teared up a little listening to it.
You ever listen to 21 Pilots' cover of Cancer?
The Mad Hatter isn't that all of their songs
uhm...no
Devin Van Harken go to there channel and scrole to the bottom... then start scrolling up again...
Helix you should listen to the Circa Survive version of this song man their singer Anthony green is amazing
Brian has eyes that look oddly familiar... I just cant place my shuriken on it
I GOT IT! DICK ELDER #3!
He was probably one of the extras killed in one of the earlier vids by Ninja Brian.
Sharon Hocutt The Dick elders are only dead in the future
Oh he was Ninja Jim
NOOO NOT ARINNN

I hope she had a good third birthday
Happy birthday to your daughter
Perfect song to end this year

This has to be my favorite song from their cover album.
Lord Cosby This and Subdivisions are my favorites :)

Okay dude, Dan's voice is decent, but he isn't even comparable to Serj Tankian. Let's be real, man.
Nice way to end of Christmas Day this is
joe clark Yoda you are
MMMMMMMMMMMM
FUNNYYYYYYYYYY JOKE!
joe clark But our Savior is here
man this is hands down the best song by The Beatles, shame to think what happened to Jim Morrison after this though.
pooinsky A+
pooinsky this physically hurts.
That wasn't Jim Morrison. You're thinking of John Bonham. You're thinking of him right now. Admit it!
you're now breathing manually so it is very important you don't forget to breath
is this comment supposed to be ironic? god I hope it's ironic
This came out on the tenth Christmas without my dad. This is beautiful
GrannyGumJobs 708 sorry to hear about my man. I'm sure he's looking over you proud.
2nd christmas without mine. i've watched this video every day since it's been released, and it makes me sob every time.
read this comment and thought "oh my gosh thats so horrible i can't even imagine how that must feel-" then i realized my dad's been dead for six years
came out on the first christmas without mine
I feel sorry for you guys. mines not exactly dead. but he is to me. and my moms already dying. my brothers got suicidal thoughts. My other brother moved out. I'm really all alone. we all are sometimes.
As a rule, Pink Floyd covers are a no no for me. However, having just gotten into NSP, I take that back. This is just majestic, beautiful and just so filled with raw emotion.
This album should be entirely covered by NSP, I'm a big fan of Pink Floyd and I think they'd do great.
Nearly every musician got their start trying to make their own personal cover of someone else's work because they were so inspired. I realize why Floyd is so important. But they aren't untouchable. No one should be considered as such. In the CD's notes, Danny said he felt inspired by his Granddad, a man who survived the holocaust and invented medical equipment. Not a bad tribute, if you ask me. Covering Pink Floyd is okay if he's so inspired by such a great person.
@@Jaydoggy531 i mean personally id feel honoured that someone has chosen your song to commemorate such a strong, influential person (dans grandfather).
They way they cover this reminds me of the 1994 Eagles self-cover of Hotel California.
Mega_Bird700 as much as NSP is good, no one in the universe can cover Shine On You Crazy Diamond. It's simply impossible
no im not crying what are you talking about
Gen C IM NOT CRYING!! ...... YOUR CRYING!! lol
Gen C Somebody just put tears on my pillow
That's what I'm really mad about
Dead xD
Gen C I'm bloody crying
Ponytail Danny. Be still, my heart. And other portions of my anatomy through which blood courses.
And just like that, in the middle of a thunderstorm, a tense atmosphere in my home, and an upset baby, everything settled down. This huge relief hit
I've probably commented this on this video before, but this is my favorite song that NSP covered. my dad passed away in 2014 when I was sixteen and Pink Floyd was one of his favorite bands, this was his favorite song by them. once, long before I was born, he and my mom were at a bar and he sang this on the karaoke stage with his back to the crowd because he couldn't look at them and sing- I wasn't told this until long after he passed away but it made this song a lot more special.
I found the Grumps and subsequently NSP not long after my dad passed and they really helped me get through one of the worst times of my life- and continue to help me on a daily basis. when I saw NSP had covered Wish You Were Here, it felt... appropriate, for lack of a better word- it was even posted two days before the second anniversary of my dad's passing. Danny reminds me a lot of my dad in that they had a very similar personality and enjoyed the same bands (Rush was my dad's favorite, too) and I genuinely believe my dad would have loved the Grumps, especially Danny... he would have loved this cover, too.
every time I listen to this song I get emotional, but when I listen to this cover I full out cry. I'm just grateful that it exists. yeah.
This made my eyes (and pants) moist
Same
Who doesn't?
I have such a hard on for Danny's voice. Which is especially astounding because I'm female.
The UnorthodoxDream right on
Dude, its Danny Sexbang. Why AREN'T all girls in love with him? Guys a living chick magnet!
Everybody shut up, she has an erection!
😉😀😀
Anything is possible if you believe.
Pink Floyd is my favorite band. i own every album up until the final cut on vinyl, and the last few albums i have on CD. ive seen roger waters perform the wall live, and im pretty much into anything and everything Pink Floyd.
with that being said , this is the best Pink Floyd cover ive ever heard. they definately do it justice.
stoodle bop Lucky, Pink Floyd is my favorite band as well, I saw the recent concert movie at Pompeii David Gilmour had, and after a song I almost clapped thinking I was there.
It's nice to hear Dan without the multiple vocal harmony he usually does.
he does have a beautiful voice even without the audio layering, but the layering makes for a very unique sound thats very nice.
I fucking LIVE for the layering tbh
yeah boiiiiiii IT'S GORGEOUS OH MY GOD
@@handanhan same here. Straight up sounds like a god when it's layered. What's better than dans voice? Dans voice 3 times 😏
@@wiggl3s_821 you're so undeniably correct
When I was this early Dan was still in The Northern Hues
bridget griffin same
bridget griffin last time I was this early
...oh wait...
last time i was this early this comment trend was still alive
bridget griffin HAHAHAHAHA
Pink Floyd Dark Side of the Moon is one of my favorite albums ever... Although this is not part of said album, it is still one of my favorite Pink Floyd songs. Thanks everyone at NSP and Merry Christmas!
I cannot find the words to express how much I love Danny. No matter what happens to me, how bad or painful it gets. All it takes is something from him to make it better. A song, or even hearing him tell a story. Danny is one of the most amazing people on this planet. Keep everything up man.
I've always been a fan of NSP, and I especially love the Under the Covers albums (I even own the signed physical copy of Vol. 2!), but this is the one song I skip, and the only video I haven't watched. It's not because I don't love it, because I do, but because this song makes me cry like a baby every single time I hear it for personal reasons. But today I'm gonna give it a shot, I'm gonna finally watch and listen to the entire video, because even if it brings some tears to the surface, it's worth it.
What did you think? :)
Did you survive cuz I sure didn't
DAMMIT NINJA BRIAN STOP CUTTING ONIONS NEAR MY FACE
Retr0Active Shhhh. Don't give him any ideas. He'll sell out the whole produce section if we're not careful.
I know it's pointless to leave one comment in 7k on a vid that is years old, but this version holds more raw emotion than the original. It has more melancholy when the original provides a generous amount of emptiness in its tone. Both are fantastic, and this is exactly why covers exist, to give listeners a new take on something so perfect. Thanks you guys.
Ihram ybaR well said. So many people are caught up on deciding which is better, rather than praising the cover for what it is and in it's own right and as it's own, individual piece. Personally I do prefer this version, but that's only because I am not a Pink Floyd fan and not so fond of their sound, but I don't view this cover as a cover, per se. It's its own song, and I just happen to like this song more than another.
Get it girl!!
The emptiness certainly makes sense in the original Pink Floyd version, as this is a song about death. But this version's louder instruments and harmony really do bring a different take.

No worries dude
I'm not crying, somebody just put TEARS ON MY PILLOW!

xXTheWTFPandaFTWXx I remember that 😂
xXTheWTFPandaFTWXx i'm FINE
xXTheWTFPandaFTWXx IM NOT MAD
I have been a fan of Pink Floyd my whole life and I can honestly say this beautiful rendition moves me unlike any other version I have ever heard. Danny and Brian playing together at the end is spectacular. Super Guitar Brothers did a magnificent job as well
bruh if nsp does a cover of any queen, bowie, or devo song i might just die of happiness
and could you imagine dan sinning toto's africa?
Arsi Pantsu This needs to happen.
Andrew Pether ikr
I think I saw you in the comment section for the last NSP vid.
Bro I'd die of happiness if they ever covered a Bowie song, he's my favorite music artist.
This song really struck home for me. I just recently lost my Grandma & Grandpa a few months ago. First my Grandpa & literally a few weeks later, my Grandma, both from cancer. So this will be the first Christmas we celebrate without them. Thanks NSP & Happy Holidays! :)
Not that I don't love the NSP originals, but I'm glad Dan's voice gets to flourish in the cover albums.
I had a relationship with someone that loved Pink Floyd and was the first to introduce their music to me. I loved their music for a long time. The ending of the relationship tore my whole world apart and did the same to anything I associated with it, including all the songs I loved by Pink Floyd. I put off listening to/watching this video for longer than I want to admit, as not to bring back bad memories.. but just now, hearing Dan sing this song.. it brought tears of joy, rather than sadness for the first time in years. Thank you for that, it means more than you guys will ever know.
brb gonna request this to my local radio station, because yknow, this is the only NSP song that you can play on the radio
First Name Last Name or any of the other covers ya know...
First Name Last Name I think dinosaur laser fight could get a radio censored version and the world would be a better place. Fricken and gosh darn have to be on the radio by now right?
Even being a cover, this is the first song that has given me goosebumps in a while. Right fuckin on NSP!
roadkill55446 Agree.
Still holding out for Who Wants to Live Forever by Queen.
Maybe on Under the Covers 2?
or You're My Best Friend by Queen
MrSmilingDeath I'd love a Queen song but I think he said that they're out of his range.
billnyethemathguy Only if he doesn't believe.
MrSmilingDeath or bohemian rhapsody by queen
Only one word can describe Dan's singing voice.
Orgasmic
i know you guys probably wont see this but...i just found out my parents are splitting up and. this is one of my favorite songs and you guys just....made this a little bit easier. thank you.
one of the songs played at my fathers' funeral, one of my favourite songs ever, absolutely beautiful rendition of an absolutely beautiful song.
I get Dan is goofing like The Lonely Islands with NSP but damn, I got goosebumps, I don't particularly like Pink Floyd covers because I love Pink Floyd so much that very few covers scratch the original but damn! I loved this
I am a very silent fan but this is the last song I ever sang with my grandmother that raised me and I am giving huge thumbs up for nailing the feeling of the song. Anyone can sing notes, but hitting that deep feel of this song is hard; and not gonna lie, it made me tear up. Way to hit me in the feels NSP.
Dan, you have a beautiful voice. Thank you for all that you do here on nsp, and game grumps. And thanks to everyone else who was a part of this, too. This is an amazing cover, and you've done this song a great justice. Love you guys
That moment when you realize that Danny is 100x more attractive than you will ever be.
and 100x more professional than you will ever be
*dies alot on the inside*
Nicerockinkid he made a song about space laser dinosaurs, maybe not that one.
STIA3 and in his fourties! I am 34 and I look like a chewed gummy bear. Fffukh.
he's 38
And how he's single! How!? He would be an ideal boyfriend!
So, so you think you can tell
Heaven from hell
Blue skies from pain
Can you tell a green field
From a cold steel rail?
A smile from a veil?
Do you think you can tell?
Did they get you to trade
Your heroes for ghosts?
Hot ashes for trees?
Hot air for a cool breeze?
Cold comfort for change?
Did you exchange
A walk on part in the war
For a lead role in a cage?
How I wish, how I wish you were here
We're just two lost souls
Swimming in a fish bowl
Year after year
Running over the same old ground
And how we found
The same old fears
Wish you were here
Maskalaska Essade Such beautiful lyrics
Roger Waters the brains Behind Floyd
🙇♂ thank you 🙏
my dad passed away five years ago (coming this february in a couple weeks) and this was one of his favorite songs, as well as the parting song at his funeral. i avoided listening to the song for a while as it brought a lot of emotional pain with it, but i finally decided to listen to this cover and i think i needed this, a lot. it’s helped me with so much. thank you so much Danny and everyone else who made this video happen, i love you all.
I've got the autographed CD and I listen to it at work every day. I work in manufacturing with older guys who listened to all these songs their entire life so I have given them a fresh perspective on some of their old familiar tunes. Thank you guys so much for this album, it has given me countless hours of enjoyment. Ninja Sex Party, Danny, Brian, thanks guys, on a personal level. I hope you have a wonderful Holiday surrounded by those you love, and you can share some memories of those we all wish were still here.
- Caleb
thank you for making this video we played this song at my uncle's funeral. you guys are just so cool and cherish your friends for as long as you can
this comment will probably be deleted. I have a theory that Brian is actually ninja Brian.
Wilectric Spread this like fire before we all get killed and this gets deleted
Wilectric reported.
yeah he meant it as a joke xd
are you stupid
this comment was obviously a joke
I’m on a binge through the NSP playlist. Had to stop here, imma cry
Danny is the part of the reason I want to start doing music with my friend, we both like music like this, but also punk rock/pop punk, so we want to make a cover album of our favorite punk songs. But Danny has such an amazing voice, and an astounding confidence about him that it really made me feel like I could do stuff like this too. He's a huge inspiration, and I just hope I can also do what I love for a living, and that I can someday be successful
Its just so beautiful when NSP does a cover...i love all their songs but its just so magical and majestic when they do a cover. :]
I know you’ll probably never see this but this cover got me through the worst break up of my life.
In 2 years I went from this song feeling heart shattering to a comforting nostalgia. Every time I get sad about what happened I turn this on and remind myself to not trade my walk on part in a war for the lead role in a cage.
Truly thank you for putting your heart into this.
I've always loved this song, it always brings a tear to my eye because it was played at the beginning of my Dad's funeral, this version is truly amazing.
I loved this cover album. This song in particular was very well done. Keep up the amazing work. And if you ever do any more classic rock covers, I'd love to hear some Led Zeppelin or Black Sabbath.
GANONdork123 holy shit, now that you mention it, they could totally do Paranoid.
Damn right! A song I'd really love to hear them play is Down By the Seaside by Zeppelin.
Immigrant Song. That's all I want in life.
oh fuck i love immigrant song I'd love to hear dan sing it
I want to see them do a rendition of through fire through flames by Dragon Force
Thank you Danny and Brian and all of the guys who helped put this out. This is an amazing gift.
thought they couldn't post this for copyright reasons, but I'm glad its up anyway
Brendan Custer Check the description. They got permission.
yea i saw. I meant I'm glad it worked out :D
Pink Floyd was one of my dads favorite bands and this song was always a way for us to connect. He passed away in 2017 and this song still makes me cry. This is such a beautiful cover and I wish my dad could've gotten to hear it.
My dad loved this band, these songs, this was his music. Now it's my music, now it's something I listen to, and I think of him when I hear this music, now made for me. Thank you guys, for bringing this music to our generation on, because unlike our loved ones, memories and music never dies.
Not going to lie. Danny's humor and music have saved my life on multiple occasions.
It started storming as I was listening to this. Goddamn.
That sounds so perfect :O
Same
Sam Houser Somehow, same
lol my phone just said I'm under a tornado watch right now so I guess same? Hahaha
Either you or the weather have good dramatic timing
I'm a 54 year old man who grew up on Pink Floyd, here because my daughter is in love with someone she calls, "Danny Sex-Bang". I'm speechless. The song is about pain, loss, & grief. AND HE NAILED IT TO THE WALL WITH AN EXCLAMATION POINT!! Well done, well fu***ng done.
you're a cool day 🤘
Welcome to 2017 my dudes.
Thank you Danny, Brian and everyone else who worked on this song. Here's too a good year!
Favourite song from the entire album
Mine as well. Released on Christmas too!
Yeah, best Christmas present ever!
Katy Amsden personally I think shine on you crazy diamond is the best song on wish you were here followed closely by welcome to the machine and have a cigar.
Wish you were here is amazing.. hell the entire album is God tier lol
I just meant the NSP 'Under the Covers' CD :) I haven't listened to a lot of Pink Floyd in general but considering how much I love this song, I'm definitely going to check out some more of their music!
Katy Amsden The album this song is from is a good place to start. The whole Discography, really. Much like NSP.
HOLY SHIT. This is quite the Christmas present you guys...
I love this song, never knew NSP wrote it
What??? Pink Floyd wrote it
@@only4playlist649 No NSP did pink floyd just did a cover
@@garbo3919 are you nuts? This was written in the 70s and pink Floyd release it.
@@garbo3919 I mean this is one great cover but it's Floyd who wrote it
@@only4playlist649 I hope you know that they’re being sarcastic, right??
I lost my mom to COVID-19 back in June after a 51-day battle. And every single day, I wish she was here.
This song, your wonderful cover in particular, helps me be closer to her. Thank you.
*hug* I am so sorry; that's a wound time doesn't quite heal. May you have comfort.
Requiescat in pace. I feel your pain.

Having just lost a pet bird, this song surely does help sooth the soul. Thank you Danny and Brian for helping a weary soul mend a wound in the soul that was thought to be irreversible. Just know you're both fantastic and I appreciate your work.
>Sees title
"Wait, you mean the one by Pink Floyd? OH MAN PLEASE BE PINK FLOYD-"
>Clicks video
"FUCK YEEEAAAAAH"
I'd love to see Danny sing a Radiohead song, preferably either "Street Spirit" or "Creep"
Caity _floydfan oh my god, if danny sung "creep" i would fucking nut
Karma Police!
I would be so happy if they did Creep
Meh... creep is overrated
Videotape would be majestic
I certainly was not expecting a Jewish person to give me one of the best presents this year.
Nintato I'll see you at the top of the comments
Alright, and up I goooooo...
Nintato It is the second day of Hanukkah, so...
Actually, this is the first day of Hanukkah. The second night is tonight.
*****
Could we not? It's Christmas/Hanukkah.
last christmas, we were given a reunion between jon and arin. and this year we have this masterpiece of a cover. it just goes to show that amazing people like the grumps exist in our life. merry christmas, to all the lovelies out there. ^_^
Desperately praying this is not the last time NSP and SGB collaborate...
They're covering Elton john for the next cover album!
I think they said it was going to be Rocket Man. I could be wrong though.
Yeah, I'm pretty sure it's Rocket Man. I'm so excited.
I am a guitarist (I play electric, but I have a hollowbody), and the minute my friend showed me this, my guitar was in my hands, playing and singing along. This song is a masterpiece. a classic. a LEGEND. Great work guys!
Wow I love this. I like the Game Grumps but I had no idea that Ninja Sex Party was so good. You just earned yourself a new subscriber today! :D
Pink Floyd is easily in my top 5 favorite bands, and Danny and Brian are easily in my top 10 favorite people, so this video is easily in my top favorite things ever.
Also, Super Guitar Bros. Fuck yeah.
Guys, I saw a post on Instagram regarding this video that brought this to my mind. Wasn't everybody begging for this to come out and pushing them to get the rights for it? If so, why does it only have half a million views? That's the least any of their music videos have gotten, and that's sad. You pushed them so much to get this video out and then you didn't watch it. It deserves more views. Brian snoring has more views than this, and we need to change that, so tell everybody you know about this video. It needs to be remembered.
Agreed, saw the same post
randomnesswithryan The important thing about it is the other videos are much older.
Gramps and Mates That, and they also exist on Spotify
randomnesswithryan Dude, I'm a huge fan and own all their albums. I'm subbed to this channel and for some weird reason, I never got this in my subscription feed.
This is literally my first time watching this.
Thing is I like many other people bought the song. meaning I've listened to it at least 200+ times and it's not counted here. That may be part of it.
Listening to this still, just about once a week. I've said it once and I'll say it again, NSP can turn already perfection into something even better. This may be the best cover ever.
After hearing Arin screaming at random Christmas games, this is a very nice, calming change.
This song never fails to make me cry. And on Christmas? Oh goodness the tears
Thank you guys for this. Happy Chanukah to you two
OMG. It is a great Christmas. This is my favorite NSP song on that album. I'm so happy to finally see this video!
um it's not an NSP song
You think I don't know it's not their song? It is a "cover" album. They covered it so, it's theirs. Quit being a hater.
lol
I love that NSP has the power and influence to get 1M people to listen and enjoy some pink floyd in 2017.. and that goes with all of the covers they have been doing. Bringing the classics back to a new light. Incredible work.
