      Hahaha, when i clicked the link i said something similar, "Damn, someone trying to cover Frank." Pleasantly surprised. I think that the beauty of this series is when artists go out of their genre and make it their own hybrid sound.

  • @aliamcbride
    @aliamcbride 6 років тому +45

    Very different to Frank's original. But it's very personal and emotional. It's very pretty and I think it's not even comparable to the original because they really made it their own

  • @BigSeth9123

  • @fredgilliatt2011
    @fredgilliatt2011 6 років тому +15

    Thundas always express the most authentic emotion. I reckon Frank would be fucking stoked, they did not bite his style or his take on lyricism, they used the original to channel a separate - but paralleled - vibe whilst stayin true to themselves. Love it

    • @busa156

    @stephenwalsh7977 6 років тому +5

    Ev Jones is THE business. Brother has an angelic voice. Thundamentals need to incorporate him into ALL their tunes much like The Herd and Urthboy do with Jane Tyrell. Perfect matches.

    My favorite covers on LAV are usually the awkward ones. Something about having the balls to take a good song and disassemble what made it popular "Just for fun" works for me. I dig it

    Didn’t quite match the vocals of Frank. But I feel that wasn’t the point. It was telling a beautiful story of relationship and loss. Perfect form from the boys this one is a banger.

    • @rajivc7254

Just appreciate the music and feel something you animals, i gurantee you they werent out here to top Frank, they love the song and they got a chance to do there own version. Keep up the amazing work Thundas !

    Why'd they change "start of nothing" to "start of something"? The song is about heartbreak. Weird choice.

    • @LB-uw5cy
      @LB-uw5cy 6 років тому +20

      It's a cover. Not a copy, they did that on purpose since its about personal relationships they've had and they made the song about those and changed the lyrics accordingly.

    • @stephenwalsh7977
      @stephenwalsh7977 6 років тому +2

      Luke Brown71 ditto

    • @rkeratiloe1
      @rkeratiloe1 6 років тому +2

      +Luke Brown71 yeah but that renders the parts of the song they did keep moot.
      It's one thing to adapt a song's lyrics to better suit your singing style but when your cover is in direct opposition to the original in meaning - in addition to altering tone, harmony, sound/feel, lyrics, tempo, etc - you're straying past the margins of cover concept. Just do an original song and sample.

    @rkeratiloe1 6 років тому

    I feel like I just watched a Thundamentals song inspired by Frank Ocean's Ivy that is way too mediocre to stand on its own feet so they called it a cover.
    There's having your own unique take on another artist's song and then there's this. Is it still a cover if you change every single category of changes possible for covers? Including the meaning & key theme of the song?

    • @veecee101
      @veecee101 6 років тому

      Big Donnie Brumpf Dude, i don't think ABC is going to screen each artist's performance and do a checklist of what constitutes a cover - they just bring guests on and let them do their own thing.
      It's "Like a Version" not "Cover Idol".
