It's the 2020s. I'm listening to a recording made in the 2000s of a song from the 1990s made on 1980s equipment. The video for the song is of a TV show from the 1970s that was set in the 1950s. Also the lyrics to the song refer to a person from the 1960s and a person from the 1950s. This is nostalgia overload.
An 11 year old video of Weezer’s Buddy Holly decided to be recommended to me, this sounds great too! I heard many say this is Virgincore music, but I’ll figure it out later.
@VoltDenatsu i mean, that _is_ a thing people say about weezer, so i'm pretty sure he's talking about weezer but who knows edit: don't know why i wrote this, it was clearly a joke

This cover is insane......this is the best sound I have ever heard the Commodore 64 produce, including the audio demo PRG on 5.25" floppy I have where you press spacebar and actually get a full line with the proper speech of the song 'kung fu fighting'. I have hundreds of Commodore 64 games and the old girl still works perfectly but I never heard any of the game soundtracks sound this good! It's so full and 'alive' - love it!!
For the uninitiated - the Commodore 64 had a 6581 audio chip which was a pretty decent 3-voice programable analogue synthesizer invented in the late 1970s. This song was arranged for 6 voices - a second 6581 being a common upgrade in the retro scene

I can’t believe the C64 had more than one sound channel, this sounds gorgeous. I’ll have to look more into it’s sound hardware
It had a sid card that could play three voices, and an expansion that added six.
The 6581 SID can even play 4-bit samples on a 4th channel if you use the volume register
the SID chip sure has a special sound to it
the C64's SID chip was insanely far ahead of anything of it's time in my opinion
I'd watch The 8-bit guy's video on old sound.
I see I'm currently 11 years late to the party, but damn this slaps!

Same!!
12 years next week...

True to the original, but takes it somewhere new. Still my favorite chip cover after years.

Blame schlatt

Welcome back
this will be weezer in 2010
the algorithm brought me to this awesome cover
cant believe Weezer made a whole song based on this video
Took almost 12 years but this gem was finally uncovered for the world to enjoy properly
this is the best cover of this song

I thought this was just part of some meme because I keep seeing this song on UA-cam in various forms but this video is eleven years old 😭
Weezer has been a meme since 2008
I love how everyone is suddenly getting recommended this
CRAZY how this is even possible, and it sounds so good like it's genuinely great!
On today's episode of hidden gems UA-cam has recommended me.
this sounds like credits music for a really upbeat rpg
12 years later and i can finally weeze in peace
HERE BEFORE IT REACHES 12 YEARS IN EIGHT DAYS. this is great man.
Y'all are awesome! Much love to ya!
I don’t care what they say about us anyway
No man YOU are awesome
this video's boutta be 14 years old at the end of the month, yet this sounds like something modern composers would do on the SID
Ive seen a lot of shitposts about buddy holly with similar titles to this one lately, this is leagues better than that mate, this sounds really fucking good.
This sounds like the ending credits for a TV show set in the 80s and this is like a chiptune remix of the opening theme.
Perfect

You did a really good job keeping the vocal melody accurate. I love the SID chip.
bend was a little soft tho :/
I wonder if I could make good version with just 3 channels(regular C64 SID)
I needed to hear this today. Thank You.

Freakin' flawless.. my favourite little detail? Arps for the stripped 0:46 part
I love that we can see the most replayed part in the video, and of fucking course it's the riff
I might be 11 years late, but I still have to say that this sounds incredible for such an old machine.
I'm glad for these weezer videos finally tickling down to me
This video is ahead of its time
This happened to my buddy Holly once
Thanks UA-cam algorithm, I needed this
This SLAPPS .
It took me 11 years, but i finally found this treasure. This slaps. 1+ subscriber
12 years later, still amazing
You were about 11 years ahead of your time, but I'm glad we've found you now!
I didn't expect for an commodore version.
It sounded like an ending for a game or something
holy chips and dip this is beautiful
Probably my favorite track from Rock Band: commodore. So much fun playing it back then
really gorgeous.
This is cool. They managed to make a Weezer song appeal to virgins even more
Algorithmic punch!
How does this only have 22k views??? It deserves millions
why couldn't i discover this 12 years ago
wow this sound surprisingly close to the sega genesis ym2612! C64 was a little before my time so this is super neat to me!
I make my yearly viewing of this video again. It is a timeless classic
this goes crazy!!!
not sure why this was recommended but cool, now I kind of want to hear the actual song
seeing this today makes me so happy
UA-cam, took you awhile to recommend this gem. Good job Kevin.
I see the algorithm has brought us cultured folk together once more
Hard to believe Commodore actually got the rights to include a copy of Buddy Holly with every C64 sold in the US! Very Cool!
11 years late but still here
what the fuck this goes so hard??? i had no idea the C64 had so many unique sounds available to it!!!!
this is the second recreation of this song that is over 10 years old that was recommended to me today, first in mario paint, now this
This is surprisingly accurate for the C64. Great job!

Thank you, UA-cam algorithm, for this generous gift!
The SID64 never lets anyone down
This just appeared on my feed and I'm glad it did. Awesome job.
You did this, this makes you a better musician than most actual musicians, what the fuck is my excuse
The C64 makes this song's bridge sound like something that would loop endlessly on a level in Commando or something. Nice work on the arrangement
I guess you won the algorithm lottery. Love the C64 sound.

Just got the weirdest flashback to playing driller on the C64 and the Windows 95 installation CD
this got reccomended to me and wow? it actually sounds rlly good. such great sounds from an old machine. i cant believe my ears
I guess the algorithm decided to bring me here near this video's 12 anniversary, and I'm glad it did. Something about C64 music is great to listen to.
without a doubt, this is about to blow up lol
C64 will forever be my favorite computer!
Great rendition. SID makes everything sound better!
Sounds very epic! And why did it take 12 years to recommend this to me????????????
I didn't expect it to sound this good
This is a really good recreation!
Note-for-note perfect. Thanks, algorithm!
Ok this goes hard
This is incredible! Please make more music, your incredibly talented.
