Man, I completely forgot about this song. The Iron Maiden lyrics in this song always hit home with me cuz I was a huge Maiden fan in high school and it definitely didn't win me any popularity contests.
As a HARDCORE metalhead whose a teenager rn....I've always been confused like wasn't heavy metal/hard rock considered extremly cool in 90s/80s? Like ur always seeing how axl rose/nikki sixx/lemmy used to get SOOOO laid?
@@sidmajumder5207 Well keep in mind those guys were rock stars. Big difference between some high school kid that digs Iron Maiden and the actual guys in Iron Maiden :D. Also, there was a fairly big distinction in social circles between the hair bands and bands like Iron Maiden back then. I guess 3-4 minute songs about getting high and laid attract different sorts of crowds than 13 minute long songs based on a poem from 1797. 🤷♂
This was a terrific choice for a song to cover. It literally fits everyone perfectly from vocals to the instruments. It had that original sound to it, but also felt a bit more full bodied, if that makes sense. It was a really good cover and I really do dig the nostalgia. I also think you guys could do something special doing a 'Savage Garden' cover.
I thought the original version of this song had a female vocalist singing it back when it came out. It wasn't until I saw Wheetus at a music festival that I was like "Wait. This song is sung by a dude?"
Your voice is one of the best voice I've ever heard. I can't even explain the feeling. This soft voice just relieves your brain and let you disappear in it. You are perfect, just keep singing. Let our ears have a party! Also the color of soloist's eyes astonishing.
Audra, you are clearly a superstar like Hayley Williams of Paramore. You have it all: Great vocal chops, accurate intonation, wide range, great dancer, great personality and smile, self-confidence and beauty. Your band knows all this and how fortunate they are to be working with you. Many offers will soon be coming your way. Steve S, producer and director.
Killer cover as always! I love to see how much fun you guys have while doing what you love. I tell everyone I can that they are missing something amazing in their life if they don't know who F211 is.
guitarist, bass player, drummer, singer everything is perfect. Very like it. You cover the song perfectly. I like the way you play music. greetings from Indonesia
Yall nailed the vocal style for this song, and the whole overall style is spot on to the original but still with your own twist. Great cover! That group harmony part was also awesome, nice to see the whole gang :)
I remember the first time I heard this song I wondered what it would sound like if a Female sang it. Thanks so much for covering this, one of my all time favourite songs!
Wenderson AllanBR Wenderson AllanBR I’d love to see a cover of that, or even Bittersweet Symphony, and/or The Drugs Don’t Work by The Verve...or even It’s Never Too Late by 3 Days Grace, or maybe Somebody Told Me by the Killers, or even a rock cover of a Take That song, either Shine or Greatest Day, since all those songs are ones I grew up hearing on the radio, well except for the 3 Days Grace song.
The record was due to be released about two weeks after Columbine happened. The label had them change it as thing were a little sensitive about then. Vice have a great documentary about this song (and a bunch of other one hit wonders)
I just found your channel the other day by hearing "Cooler Than Me" and I was amazed. I had never even heard of this song but I saw that you did a cover of it so I went and listened to the original, then yours. You guys really did an amazing job of recreating the feelings given from the song. This song was enough for me to subscribe. Keep up the great work!
It feels like they know what cover I want and then post it😂🔥💯 This isn't the best band in Erie this is just the best band period.🙏✌️ They just take a great song and kill it with Audra's voice and the guys crush it with the rest
Yes!! Ikr! I love it that they didn’t change the pronouns!! 💕🌈 Do you know of any other songs by this band or other artists that don’t change the pronouns?
@@willopeda8637 it might not be quite what you're looking for, but Mary Lambert also covered this song while keeping she/her pronouns for the love interest. Though, Lambert also changed the song to be more of a gorgeous acoustic ballad
I came here after watching that 1 scene from generation kill where ray, brad, trombly and the reporter start singing the song in the humvee and now its on the top of my playlist
I know this son is originally by a dude, but it really does encapsulate the feeling of being closeted in high school and in love w your straight best friend 😳
@@Petaurista13 its a bit different because if a lesbian has a crush on a straight girl then they just wonder what'd it be like if they were gay but if a girl is taken and straight then there's atleast a chance for u guys
Coming from an almost forty year old who grew up in the 90's, it's more than refreshing to see that there's young people who actually have good taste in music.
At one point when Wheatus wanted to start playing the song live again, they couldn't remember what they used to make the sample after the line "she rings my bell" and had to ask the internet for help
They have actually removed this from the original -> ua-cam.com/video/FC3y9llDXuM/v-deo.html. I suspect UA-cam would demonetized the video had they included it.
Love the stuff added to the bridge and end by Audra!
It make me always happy see that great bands appreciate each other! :)
awe thank you 🖤

@@FirstToEleven you guys have to do Make me wanna die - pretty reckless
Great band? Wheatus had this song and maybe one other that was alright. One hit wonder at best.

I wonder how long till a stacys mom cover from them
DEMONDRIFTER you’re good. Maybe too good....
Yes!
That'd be incredible. . And quite amusing with Audra singing it too, haha. . But, ya know, gotta stay progressive and with the times 😁
That one would be so much fun 🤣
OMG YES! That would be my favorite F2Eleven cover ever!
Loved the original and it’s really stood the test of time. This is absolutely the best cover of it I’ve heard.
After listening to this song I feel like you guys should sing "I'm just a kid" if you haven't. Thats a good song.
Oh yes plsssss...
Would be good!
@CarolineConic i was gonna say the same. simple plan would be dope
That’s the most perfect recommendation! I hope they see this comment
I 7th this! I'd love to hear their take on any SP song. I grew up on them.
Holy moley, those octave harmonies in the vocals gave me CHILLS 🤯

It's almost as if you read my mind - I've been listening to this song for a week now and I'm obsessed.
Lovely cover, I like it!
we feel like you guys can read our minds!! you keep guessing our covers hahah!
Killer cover as always! I love to see how much fun you guys have while doing what you love. I tell everyone I can that they are missing something amazing in their life if they don't know who F211 is.
I agree, I think the same thing!
This song was a guilty pleasure of mine in the 90’s. Love this cover; Audra’s voice is always 🔥
it was released in 2000:)
Shes a baddie what a heck of a band i went crazy for this one of my jams Excellent I love them will keep tuning in
Yess this is a good cover to listen too in these quarantine times
perfect time to release covers right?! hope you enjoy & stay safe! 🖤
@@FirstToEleven yess it really is, you guys stay safe too!
First To Eleven Are you going to release it on Spotify?
Pleasee!
You bring so much joy in these difficult times. Thanks and God bless you all!
Oh man, you just brought back so many memories. I love how good music does that and can take you to another place.
Thanks for the awesome cover!
Тому кто занимается сведением звука у вас отдельное спасибо. И опять солистке за улыбку.
Audra singing it brings a fresh perspective to the song. Nicely done!
"Listen to Iron Maiden baby with me" this line takes me somewhere out of this world.. ❤❤❤ and her smile ❤
Was not expecting a Wheatus cover but it is appreciated
God I miss the early 2000s...this cover took me back there so much. Ya'll did awesome.
Welcome back
can you take me back with you? im just 31
One of my favorite one-hit wonders on the 90s. Awesome performance, guys!
guitarist, bass player, drummer, singer
everything is perfect. Very like it.
You cover the song perfectly. I like the way you play music. greetings from Indonesia
Great cover. Same song, different voice style, different voice performance, great feeling!
I CANNOT stop listening to this!!!! This is the best cover I've ever heard!!
I really need the rock version of castle on the hill with audra's voice
By ed Sheeran ?
We need the rock version of castle of glass by Linkin Park
@First To Eleven ^^^^^^^^^
this is literally the best cover ive ever seen

and Every You Every Me by Placebo!

Oh almost forgot about that one! What about freshmen by the verve pipe?

quarantine is easier to survive by enjoying your music, guys!
such a great cover
one of the BEST covers of this song i love it so much sheer PERFECTION
also has such an edgy lesbian love story vibe that i am HERE FOR
Even covering the "he brings a gun to school" with that record scratch was really faithful to the original. Fantastic cover!
That wasn't the original, the record label made them do that.
@@epia125 It's on the official master, so I would consider that the original ;)

First time hiring the song. I'm in love with it. Takes me back to when I was in middle school. Way to go.
This is a damn good cover of wheatus! You guy's nailed it!
Nothing feels more 2000 than listening to this song.
This is the best cover I've heard of this song!! ❤️
First to eleven rocks! Audra's voice is incredible!
"... He brings a gun to school.." 1:13 Sing it the way it was written

Three Days Grace - Never Too Late

Bit of a stupid question but what's the name of the song playing faintly in the outro at 3:50?
I know this son is originally by a dude, but it really does encapsulate the feeling of being closeted in high school and in love w your straight best friend 😳

My favorite cover of this song omg- I’ve been listening to it on repeat

This is the best cover of Teenage Dirtbag out there, hands down. I've watched so many of your videos since discovering this cover. I'm a fan.
Waiting for "Three days Grace - I hate everything about you" cover 🥰🥰

You all look like you're having a great time...This puts me in a great mood thanks F211
If you guys/gal ever find your own identity,the right choice of riffs/lyrics and catchy notes your group can definitely go places in the industry.
Oh, so good minus the censored part.
