I can't believe I just discovered this amazing cover in 2019. Gosh! I was under a rock all this time, huh? Great work!!! Looking forward for your new acapella covers!
I know this is a bit old, but he won't be making any more. He's apparently famous now the last video he uploaded was him going on tour. I'm just glad he finally made it. And not doing acapellas with a towel on his head.
@@FloppyCheeks. Oh really??? Woooooow!!! I didn't know him much, but it's good that he's going on tour and showing his talent everywhere. Naa it's cool. Even if it's old, happy news is still happy, right? ^-^ Thanks for sharing the good news, my friend. Plus, I got to watch this amazing cover again thanks to your reply haha
@@Katthecateringcat you guys are so sweet. I really appreciate the support, but I can assure you im not famous now 😂 I stopped doing acapella covers because UA-cam threatened me with copyright infringement legal action, and that's what shut me down. Makes no sense to me because lots of people seem to do it but....yeah.... No more from me I'm afraid.
@@matthiasharris Yikes!! I'm sorry to hear that! It's sad that you received copyright strikes instead of appreciation from those companies/artists. I personally don't understand about copyright law, but yeah everyone's making acapella cover alright. One of my favorit acapella artist is SmoothMcgroove and he didn't seem to receive any sort of strikes. I love acapella art and I think it really is a unique musical talent. Not everyone can sing AND doing acapella. =( Well, let's just hope that one day the internet will become a better place for small creators. Good luck for you,my friend. And even though you said you're not famous, you already made a few acapella covers that nobody will forget!! ^-^ How cool is that? 😁
@@Katthecateringcat oh yeah, make no mistake, I'll be forever humbled by the amount of people who have listened to this cover and given their time to comment and share it. It's certainly not anything that I expected. It was definitely a shame to feel like I was shut down, but I also understand that copywrite is complicated and messy these days. But it was a bit hard to understand since artists like gotye were getting in touch with me to share that they enjoy my work and wanted to support it. But yeah, im not really doing music anymore unfortunately. Just enjoying the memories now.
I remember when my music teacher played this for us in class... and i was just blown away. You should definitely put more music up on youtube. You are definitely very talented.
Aw man, i came to listen to this masterpiece again but also see what you've been doing lately. Nothing for the past 8 years? That's of course perfectly fine it's your life. But you sure as hell have a talent I could only dream of
Mathias Harris's a cappella version of Gotye and Kimbra's 2012 Grammy award-winning song, "Somebody That I Used to Know," is total genius. His one-man-band approach is musicianship of the highest caliber. It is mesmerizing to see and hear Mathias Harris perform this song brilliantly. He's a force to be reckoned with.
Now and then I think of when we were together Like when you said you felt so happy you could die Told myself that you were right for me But felt so lonely in your company But that was love and it's an ache I still remember You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness Like resignation to the end Always the end So when we found that we could not make sense Well you said that we would still be friends But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over But you didn't have to cut me off Make out like it never happened And that we were nothing And I don't even need your love But you treat me like a stranger And that feels so rough You didn't have to stoop so low Have your friends collect your records And then change your number I guess that I don't need that though Now you're just somebody that I used to know Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over But had me believing it was always something that I'd done And I don't wanna live that way Reading into every word you say You said that you could let it go And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know... But you didn't have to cut me off Make out like it never happened And that we were nothing And I don't even need your love But you treat me like a stranger And that feels so rough You didn't have to stoop so low Have your friends collect your records And then change your number I guess that I don't need that though Now you're just somebody that I used to know I used to know That I used to know Somebody...
Multi tracking when done is seriously impressive....this is certainly that sir. Hard to play live however with just yourself, does add new meaning to 'playing with yourself' however!

The thing that makes this so amazing is how he knows and controls his various 'parts'. If you really watch, there are various portions where he is silent, because the key he's in doesn't accommodate a particular role. He has each of his "characters" specifically embodied in a particular note, and if "he" doesn't fit it, he remains silent. Clearly this took a ton of work recording each "member" and then editing it together to form the cohesive result. How can you not recognize and acknowledge the work put in? Love Him.
I'm going to start with, i'm slightly overwhelmed. His voice has a true hurt, like he felt it.The face, the attitude, clothes, hair, makes this, in my opinion, a very great Acapella . Now either he has been hurt like that, and truly understands Gotyes words, or is just a really great actor. I love it.
Outstanding!! It must've taken a lot of time to record all of these different, intricate parts of this song. You obviously also have an excellent ear and a true gift for music - well done!!!
This was so freaking cool. That was awesome, dude. I'm always a little jealous and always impressed when people do A Capella songs and made music and back beats with their voice.

I absolutely love this. I was in a band 2 years ago and we did things like this. So inspirational that I might just have them do this again.
Friend: what music do you hear?
Me:its...complicated
😂
So far the best acapella, because there is brilliance in it not found in other acapella versions. The chorus is such as to instantly lift your mood.
Everything else is insulting.
I'VE PLAYED THIS VERSION ALL THE TIME AND I'M NOT TIRED OF IT NGL, THIS IS A MASTERPIECE ᥬ🥺᭄ᥬ🥺᭄ᥬ😭᭄

Matthias Harris Could not you have to give your guitar podpisschiku?) Play like a chance to buy at the moment, even the cheapest)
Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
Told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember
You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Like resignation to the end
Always the end
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be friends
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened
And that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger
And that feels so rough
You didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records
And then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
And I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know...
But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened
And that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger
And that feels so rough
You didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records
And then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
I used to know
That I used to know
Somebody...
He has a awesome voice
I don’t think ppl appreciate your work here. Incredible job. And I’ve played for 35 years.
Finally a cover with a singer that has a simliar edgyness to his voice like Gotye, awesome work...
(And yeah, I‘m quite late to the party😂)
thank you :-)

thats not A Capella, your using a instrument

well, its a egg shaker but A Capella is no instruments so..

I wasn't saying that...

Kelly Nagle nicely done good sir
Simply said...amazing and very talented!!

Outstanding!! It must've taken a lot of time to record all of these different, intricate parts of this song. You obviously also have an excellent ear and a true gift for music - well done!!!
Yes I'm wondering how long it took to sing each part of the song and put them in at the right time it's amazing
You are one of the most amazing people i've heard sing. Your amazing. My music teacher even used your music for an example for the best accapellas.
Absolutely AMAZING! 😍😍
I love this track and i love your version of it...props
Totally worth watching! Great talent!

It's easy to check in on comments when you basically haven't made another video in 8 years 👍
