Dear Garret,
You’ve been dead going on three years and I never met you. This spring I walked halfway across America in memory of my stepfather. Like you, he left us long before anyone was ready. I understand. My first 30 days I walked in silence. My best friend sent me this. “Whenever you can listen to music again”. I wept in the North Sonoran desert, abandoning the folded tent in my hands. Never before had I really heard the words of this song. The pain struck like lightning. The beauty stayed longer. Thank you.
Seeing you’d taken your life devastated me. So many I’ve loved or admired have done the same. I wish you were here to record one more record. Maybe we could’ve made something together.
When I want to die, I come here. I remind myself I might have a soul nearly as beautiful as this but, like you, just not be able to see it all the time.
Rest easy my friend. Thank you. Thank you.
You passed away... Just so that you know, when you were alive, you had the most stunning male vocals I've ever heard in my life. You left my face a waterfall. Rest on, you deserve all the peace. Stunning, stunning voice.
Please tell me you are not serious. Source, did he really?
Edit: Nevermind, found the answer... This is unbelievable
I just heard this beautiful version for the first time. Breaks my heart to find out he passed away! What happened to him?
How he die, how did you find out?

Here is an excerpt from his obituary:
"Genetic precursor, chemical imbalance, giving audience to and then embracing the lies of how he saw himself, insert-your-too-easily-explained-reason-here. Or pick another poison. His mental cancer was stage 4. It just wasn’t as visible. No balding, no weight loss, no throwing up, no gaunt physique."
That's about as close as you can get to indirectly indicating he committed suicide.
Omg this is my forever one of the beautiful piece created . Sad to hear this news when I returned to this song after covid days in 2024 . R.I.p
Garrett this is... I'm just speechless.
Lauren Babic ayeee it's Lauren ❤️
Rip GARRETT!!
@@torino.dinero
Wait, he died?
im with ya
Finding him and hearing this voice of a ghost is so beautiful haunting
Oh my lord, I didn’t even know about him until not even a week ago, and just to learn he’s gone away not even 2 days ago...damn...leaves me speechless. This cover makes me think of my young 5-ish year old days. Mom used to sing this to me everyday, to bring me to sleep, around the house, everywhere. Now I can’t go anywhere, and I’m stuck with fallen memories. RIP Garrett, you did this song an amazing justice. And to anyone reading this, thank you. Have a great day, afternoon, night, and life. Goodbye.
Holy shit dude, this is seriously maybe the best cover I have ever heard. You did this song justice... you deserve so much more publicity.
You look like a lawyer
My favorite cover of yours. Rest In Peace Garrett ♥️
He's dead
@@jeffmanson7982 yes
@@destinya7795 I haven't seen him in years
This was absolutely beautiful, I was already on the verge of tears and to find out through the comment section that Garrett took his own life pushed me over the edge.. So sorry that you didn't feel at home in this world Garrett. I hope you're at peace now.
Just recently found this cover and can’t stop listening. The single note he holds throughout is haunting. This is such and incredible version and performance. It makes me sad to watch this knowing he’s passed. Sorry to his family and friends.
Your voice is like satin wrapped in silk and covered in vasaline and smothered in honey! So smooth!! Your vocal control is impeccable, and you absolutely do this song justice! I instantly went and found you on Google Play Music to add this song to my library. I love your spin on her high note (2:57) I think if/when Imogen sees this, she'll be proud.
The algorithm totally screwed you. This needs more views
I feel & weight in my stomach knowing this talented beautiful person will never make more music, I'm sorry he couldn't stay. If there's anyone out there that reads this & is considering taking their own life I plead with you not to. I too struggle with depression & ptsd following the death of two of my children, it's a battle that has to be fought daily but I assure you there is a way to find peace here with the people who care about you. If you feel like there's nobody who cares for you I assure you there is, someone will always care I care, there is someone out there that loves you & will have a hole in their heart if you leave. There is also someone out there waiting for you, maybe someone you haven't met yet but everyone has a soul mate even if you don't believe in soul mates I promise you there is one for you. Please be strong even when you want to stop please don't, your life has meaning.
God bless you
Wow this is AMAZING Garret! 😍 How have I not seen this earlier..!!!
Garret has passed...
@@johandyck7115 ok..I erased a angry rant about how there is no god. It's the first time I've heard him and I'll remember him.
Amazing dude. I've been really frustrated the last few days with some struggles with my own music and feeling really down in the dumps. This video gave me my motivation back, thank you and this really does deserve so many more views
From all covers I've heard of this song, this one captures what I felt from the original the best. Great job!
This was so not what I expected. Amazing. 4700 views is a crime and I'll do what I can to push that number up. Well done!
Hi,
Some days ago I was searching the internet for a tutorial/preset to get this "Hide and Seek Vocoder" and couldn't find anything helpful.
By now I could get two pretty close results myself and as I'm not a dick I want to share these options with you in the hope, that you'll will have as much fun as I had with the vocoder and not waste your time searching:
1. Option: Vocal Synth 2 (paid)
Use "Polyvox" in MIDI mode (not a preset but one of the five options)
Your dont have to change much there. What I did additionally: A maj key pitch correction, Distortion, Chorus, Delay and eventually put the mix to 70% so you still have your voice in there.
2. Option: Ableton Vocoder (included in Ableton Live Standard)
This option was surprisingly good. And as I prefer to have a more raw setup and dont really want to pay for the Vocal Synth 2 plugin it was great.
Just set up Abletons integrated vocoder as shown in many tutorials online. Then I used "Fashion Keys" Synth out of the "Chop and Swing" Pack from Ableton as the vocoder carrier. I found the sound really pleasing. Ofcourse if you own a wavable synth u could get an even closer result by taking some really raw synth preset and tweaking it. In the vocoder effect itself I changed also the bands to 32, activated the "enhance carrier" button and put the Dry/Wet to 65%.
Also you probably want to put a basic vocal FX rack in fron of the vocoder in both options and maybe use a pitch corrector for the second option (great free plugin is "MAuto Pitch" by MeldaProduction)
I hope I can help some of the people who are in the same situation as I was.
PS: Chords for Hide and seek can be found easily of course. I would recommend to play an octave of the root note of the chord with your left hand and make inversions to put the chords closer together. Have fun!
You are brilliant sir, thank you.
If nostalgia had a sound, it would be your voice
There's no better way to put it, Sasha R! I caught myself drifting back as I was listening. I don't do the whole hashtag thing, but I'll make an exception here:
#Ifnostalgiahadasound
YES
I know you passed away, and I wish I had found this before you did so I could have told you how fucking breathtaking this cover is. Its the best I've found; I hope you find peace and wherever you are you're happy. ❤ You have a beautiful voice and it's a shame we won't be able to hear it more...RIP Garrett
I didn’t know he died do you know how?
@@Thedinkman247 I'm not sure, if I remember correctly he had depression and other mental health problems; so my best guess is suicide. But that's just a guess.
How do you know he died ?
@@lightasmr6623 Because....he did? I'm not sure how you want me to answer that. His closest friends said he did
I freaking cried at the end... how could you...
I keep coming back to this cover every few months just to remember the beauty in your voice. It truly is an amazing piece of work and it brings me nothing but joy. This is truly amazing.
Prefacing this comment with the fact that I do not know this young man and now sadly never will have the chance to. That said, I wanted to share this because it affected me so deeply reading it, and it might help someone:
Garrett Lawrence Garfield
Garrett Lawrence Garfield
Feb 7, 1992 - Nov 19, 2020
Garrett Lawrence Garfield was born on 7 Feb 1992 at American Fork hospital in Utah. He spent his entire childhood in Orem. He played most every sport throughout his youth, excelling in all of them but most notably golf and baseball, both of which he played in High School. This despite a tendency to not quite get the cleat laces cinched tight before games. He climbed trees and goofed around in the fields behind his house with his neighborhood buddies. As a toddler, he took walks in the stroller with his folks to see the nearby horses and feed them apples, then went home to happily pound down some disgusting-looking strained green swill baby food before watching ‘The Snowman’ for the umpteenth time.
He loved/tolerated/ignored/adored his three younger brothers and at times drove them nuts with his domineering demands of my way or MY WAY. Ditto for his folks. He made fun and funny noises and imitations as a kid that he amplified in more inventive ways into adulthood. He was a gifted artist. He shared his dad’s love of the Denver Broncos and accompanied him to an every-now-and-then game. He swore up a storm (not always under his breath), and/or had commentary surrounding nearly every play when their games were televised. He struggled to take the trash out. His mom describes him as perfect and hilarious, loving, real, argumentative, anti-authoritarian, fierce, explosive, vibrant, authentic. Yep.
He was feared by fish. He developed that love as a kid from his Grandpa Don and Grandpa Larry. He made it his own and pursued and caught everything from crappie to trout to bigger-than-him sturgeon. He was really good at it and it was an area for him of laser focus. Likely having its roots in his hours-long quests to find lizards at scout camps. Oh, and he was an Eagle Scout. I’m not even kidding. His project consisted of creating activity kits for those with Alzheimer’s, influenced by the agony of that disease he saw first-hand through his grandma Leanne.
His arc toward music began early. He did a sick cover of Nsync’s ‘Bye Bye Bye’ one year for his dad’s Father’s Day gift. He sought out guitar lessons from a talented neighbor. His folks knew he was serious when they watched him perform Augustana’s ‘Boston’ at a junior high talent show. He captured the crowd. Everybody loves a front man. He got many car rides, pre-license, to friends’ homes to rehearse, record, and refine his craft. And probably hit on a young cutie or two. His first real band, Just For The Record, began in high school and performed at the local music clubs. Who knew a coordinated spit take during the Cade-inspired, nonsensically titled song ‘Phanny Packs Are Coming Back!’ would yield such a boisterous crowd response? But it did. Heady stuff for anyone, let alone a high school kid. Garrett was hooked.
After graduating from Mountain View High School in 2010, he bumped around letting jobs like call center rep and struggling addict facility staffer help pay the bills as he pushed his career as a musician. He saw more states by his early twenties than most RVers do by their seventies, hitting small clubs and venues throughout the country with various iterations of his bands and ever-morphing genres. This was punctuated by a long, crushing, solo bus ride home from Vegas, mid-tour, after a rock-n-roll bio-pic worthy, um, ‘disagreement’ that would make Spinal Tap or Oasis blush.
Many who looked on from afar, and probably some who saw it up close, may have thought he was merely chasing fame. Or wasn’t serious about it. They didn’t see the sweat equity that he drenched into his songwriting. Attested in part by the countless cell phone audio clip exchanges between him and various bandmates, as he’d produce his perfect version of lyric combos to a riff he’d been shared. Or his hours-long recording sessions to come up with one verse, sometimes Frankenstein-ing together takes A through X with various inflection and emphasis and tone so he could then complete the run and satisfy his desire for his voice to sound perfect to the mood, instrumentals, and message of the song.
His music, whether solo or band aided, reflected who he was, how he thought, sometimes warts-and-all, and sometimes his best self. But it was his true self. It meant a lot to him. It meant EVERYTHING to him. And he worked painstakingly hard to share it with those who would listen, and to make an occupation out of it. A crafted life.
He landed a gig with Metro Music Club. This wasn’t just some schmoozy wedding band. They are a top-tier act, known throughout the Rocky Mountain region, doing gigs from Vegas to Minneapolis. Garrett grabbed the moment when their paths crossed. He wasn’t looking to be in a cover band. But it helped springboard his ability to pursue his own stuff. Plus, his silky high baritone, and artistry at belting out ‘Sweet Caroline’ just as easily as ‘September’ or ‘Fireball’ (he HATED that song), and own the crowd, cemented his fit with MMC. He was so fun to watch with them. Grandmas adored him. Young hotties swooned. Dudes wished they had the talent and huevos to BE him. Except for the stage makeup. Which Garrett also loved. Along with the always-ready snakeskin jacket, no shirt, dangly earring, and lime green pants. A style all his own.
And yet there were his demons. Genetic precursor, chemical imbalance, giving audience to and then embracing the lies of how he saw himself, insert-your-too-easily-explained-reason-here. Or pick another poison. His mental cancer was stage 4. It just wasn’t as visible. No balding, no weight loss, no throwing up, no gaunt physique. The kid could go yard twice (hit 2 home runs) in his softball league game and possibly walk off the field convinced, somewhere in the reaches of his cerebellum, that he was a complete screw-up. And always had been. And always would be. THAT’S the pain he dealt with. The pain that, at its worst, he convinced himself he couldn’t overcome. The pain that he wanted to end at the expense of everything else.
We’re crushed beyond words that he’s gone on ahead. We’re glad that he’s safe. We know he’s at peace. But man, oh man, the void. Left in his wake are a grandma, cousins, uncles, aunts, friends, the occasional softball opponent he was so good at needling, fellow musicians, fans, a groupie or two, and finally, his fiancé, his brothers, and his dad and mom. All now cripplingly understanding what it means to be broken-hearted.
By name: his grandma Jennie Mae (Jan) Rasmussen Wentz, his cousins Nick, Whitney, Allie, Marshall, Mitchell, Mattie, Ali, Jake, Katie, Diedre, and Mary. Aunts Keri (Rod) and Kami (Rusty), uncles Brad (Heather), Jim (Danita), and Tony. Death And All His Friends bandmates River and Danny. MMC musicians Joslyn and Craig, Hush, Joe, Adam, Brady, Chris, Evan and David. Many former mates and collaborators. His absolutely beloved fiancé Hailey Arnold. His brothers Ethan, Terrell, and Casey. And his loving parents Adam and Julie.
Preceded in death by his grandpa Don, for whom Garrett selflessly cared during his final days (and wrote a very raw and poignant post about that experience), his grandpa Larry, and his grandma Leanne, with whom Garrett often spent time during her last few weeks.

I drive uber and lyft and play your music while I drive people about haha you gotta get more of this out
Found this gem on the Spotify weekly list one time. Bravo,
Most stunning performance- all that emotion dripping- beautiful talent Garret. RIP. 💔😔
Wait, what? He passed?
@@youwillbemissed3287 yes he passed last month
This is fantastic, and I am glad the algorithm eventually recommended it. Easily one of the best covers of the original I've heard. Lots of love for this!
Rest in Peace Garrett! Your voice will ring in the hearts of others forever!!!
Garret I’ve been listening to your rendition since you made it and it never gets old you are truly talented my dude!
I love that it is true to the original - (in some ways) in that sense, that the vocoder/harmonies are present; yet your vocals, expression and arrangement remains in the forefront :)
This cover is beyond describable. Pure transcendence. Pure emotion. Pure state of mind. Just gonna sit there and let the music consume me ❤️
How the hell this got only 66K views, I would have missed this if I didnt search for covers of this song and Im glad I finally found this ❤️
Hide and Seek is my all time favourite song, i've had it be a constant go-to in my life for the past 10 years or so, and this is my favourite cover so far ;-; Its really beautiful.
Miss your voice all the time. You are truly missed. Rest easy angel.
I literally just discovered this artist, and to discover that he passed away... What a talent.
Your voice is so incredible, Garrett. Keep doing what you're doing, because it's beautiful.
Funny
Holy hell man. Best cover of this song I’ve heard. A bit much on the reverb but I’ll go with it. Well done. Love it.
Such a phenomenal cover of an extraordinary song. Amazing voice and a pleasure to listen to. Rest in peace. Thank you for sharing your talent with the world.
He was so special.. I love you so much Garrett. It still feels like a dream..
I just found and heard Garrett today at work. All I wanted to do was come home…Listen to everything he has done. The soul was present, also magnetic. He is the keeper. Rest easy please, brings joy and tears to my heart.
SUCH a clever, well thought out cover. And really affecting and beautiful but also just so many smart little twists to the original. V much enjoyed!!
Lost my mum a month ago and came across this. Heart so heavy. Thanks Garrett for sharing your voice with us 🙏🏾🕊️
I just found this and its incredible, only to find out hes no longer with us :(
Such a shame, what a talent.
I thought this would be pretty good when I clicked on it, but I was wrong.
It's amazing. Keep up the good work :)
Your vibrato is excellent. It reminds me of Mark Hollis of Talk Talk, in that it has more of a tremolo character. I'd love to hear you tackle a track from Spirit of Eden or Laughing Stock!
SO in love with this. Broke the replay button.
You brought me to tears Garrett ;w;
So much feeling and expression
Holy shit i decided to search for covers of this song and had no idea you had covered it! Incredible job.
I truly thought this was a song that just could not be covered but what you did, I have no words. It wasn't even a cover, you completely made it your own.
Got this from my recommended! How does this only have 36k views? Ahh!!
Do you post more singing on your Instagram? Going to give you a follow!
Beautiful, sounds like a 21st century requiem.
Your spin on highnote in 2.57 to 3.05 is bring me to earthrealm ambience
THIS is what i was looking for the last hour searching for a perfect cover. Transcendent vocal performance Garrett you have touched me
It’s been years since I’ve been so moved by a song that I actually cried... this cover did it! Absolutely incredible
This is am old video but I just found it and I am so amazed I sent it to all my friends. I got chills.
This is absolutely beautiful and I can't understand why it doesn't have more views! It truly deserves them. A wonderful treat for the ears and a cover that manages to do the original justice.
so glad you're still doing you, keep going bro. still a big fan.
Rest In Peace brother. I remember Kyle showing me this before it was about to drop. I was so blown away by your talent. Praying for your family
Oh no he died? :( what happened?
So sorry to hear this.
@@yearnpill November, 21 2020, he lost battle to fight his depression
Such emotion and passion in this version. RIP buddy, so sorry those demons took over.
This is possibly the most beautiful thing I’ve ever heard. Thank you for this, Garrett ❤️
why this doesn’t have more views tf
The original by Imogen Heap is even a fairly unrecognized masterpiece
@@patrickn8355 That or it was the *MEMES!*
PHEW! Oh, man! That was MARVELOUS! Absolutely LOVE this cover!
Your cover truly moved me in a way no other cover has , I know U can’t see this but thank u for making this , You are at peace now brother , REST EASY GARRET
Amazing cover. Sad to hear about him passing.
I hope you found happiness, Garrett.
It's in my recommendations and it's only 34k views, are you kidding me??? This is absolutely AWESOME!!!
This song reminds me so much of what it was like to be a kid. The words are not inherently meaningful, or rather I do not know them, but there is a meaning behind them which I know, but cannot explain.
HOW IS THIS NOT MORE TALKED ABOUT!? It's absolutely incredible
After 2 years I still get goosebumps
Literally closed my eyes while listening to this. I went to another place. Cold chills took over my body. Im literally speechless.
Imma beginner in singing myself... And i totally wished i had ur voice and ur talent bruh.... You've blown me away. First imogen heap, then u... Absolutely loved u
this is absolutely amazing. I'm forever grateful that youtube recomended this for me to see. Keep up the good work, I'll check out the rest of you channel after this. As a fellow singer I can really say that this moved me.
first cover i've heard that captures the feel of the original while making it your own. great job.
I know this was 2 years ago but I get chills everytime I listen to it.
There are no words for this...only tears
Damn he passed away..just found you and already missing you. RIP
Great music for riding motorcycle and thinking, amazing voice, big hug from Argentina
recently discovered this and yourself, and your death. What a beautiful voice. You can hear some pain in it here. So sad. RIP
Rest in peace brother. This is incredible.
i really love this cover. your voice is magic
Your voice melts my heart 😻
I cannot remember having seen a cover which is better than the original. This is definitely the case here. Well done Garrett!
10 secs in and I'm Already Digging The Vocals. Love Your Work Bro. ❤🙌
Great cover! Feels so passionate!
The ending and the vocalizing is breathtaking. I wish there was more. Started sweating.
Woooooooow!!!!!! I LOVE this version!!! Epic!!!!!
Holy crop circles in the carpet, this is amazing.
Wow, best thing I have seen on UA-cam in a very very long time, such a powerful piece.
You are truly amazing! I'm a huge fan! Cheers!
This is so beautiful well done omg I love it very few songs or covers can make me cry cause of the emotion behind it this one had me crying
Holy crap. Just... wow. Just wow. Brought me straight to tears. 🙏 Not sure how any cover of this song could possibly capture the feelings the original gave/gives me but this one truly just blew my mind. That voice... 🤯
P.s. RIP! 😔 TOO MANY BEAUTIFUL SOULS LOST IN THE LAST COUPLE YEARS. Breaks my heart... we all need to be there for eachother more and help eachother through this mess of a world we're living in. Tell the people in your life that you love them and make sure they know they're not alone. You never know where they are in their journey and you never know which day might be your last to tell them you love them. No time to waste!
not sure how im just now finding this but holy shit this is inSANE. literally jaw. on the floor. so good. thank you.
Impressingly beautiful! Congratiolations to your work...to that greater version of a great song! Regards Peter
This is insane man. This most definitely deserves more views than what it has received.
I love it!!!
Such a beautiful voice. rest in peace man. I love this so much
It’s a tremendously beautiful song
Outstanding cover. you should be very proud man!
yoooo. 3:35 - Deaf Havana much???? great voice.
if anyone's wondering what I'm on about, listen to "Ritual" or "Saint" by Deaf Havana... real similarities in the voice.
rip. this was so beautiful
bro i had this on repeat for like 15 mins. insane fucking talent u got
Wow love this. You got other goods songs covered too like Drown from BMTH. Love it.
This is one of very few covers I have seen on UA-cam, that I actually loved as much as the original. Exceptionally well done! ☺️ thank you for sharing this! ☺️
This is the best cover out there and it's not even close. I'm shocked how low the view count is!
you sing with so much emotion, and the acoustics are beautiful
