I've seen a few covers of chems songs on YT that I don't ever recall seeing here. I thought I'd post them, see if I get positive or negative reaction.

Midlake doing Pills. Cut short but nice acousticy version

Flaming lips doing golden path. not the EMVA version from a few years back

I'd like to see the Klaxons playing All rights reversed. So far (seen em 3 times) they didn't do it.

There's a live versionof Close your eyes performed by the Magic Numbers.

Also I have an unplugged version of Setting Sun by Noel Galhager

do the brothers play pills live.? that'd be so sweet...

love that Flamming lips one. I gotta see them live again...

P.S. I would be totally stolked to see more future work with them.

The acoustic setting sun is awesome. I have that too. They could release that, without problem. It's actually a pretty nice song when done acoustically.

Anyone got a link to the acoustic setting sun video?

found it. Noel doing Setting Sun live. WOndering if he would ever do Let Forever Be live?

God, their all chill inducing. They all have the Chem's spirit sung through a different voice, if that makes any sense. It's really awesome! Any other covers people are aware of out there?

I like this one better, even though it's not Noel.

^ that's a great one. Although I'm not sure if he knows the words (or he has some kind of disorder)

(or he's foreign).

There was actually a great cover of Galvanize that was floating around youtube. It was posted here and I'm too lazy and time is too short on my lunch break to go searching. It was an amateur rock band doing a live cover at what looked like one of those battle of the bands type affairs. And though that's not my style music-wise, it was pretty damn good and the crowd were really into it.

Yup, this guy was good. He looks a bit Spanish, doesn't he? Some comments suggest he's not a native speaker.

Here's another cover which is aweful imo as well as their Galvanize cover. Did you mean this band, whirly?

I think this one has been posted here already here in the deep mail forest but, oh well...

Looking for chems covers is actually fun:

Very witty:

What do you think of the last comment there?

Hey Csar, here's that Galvanize cover I was talking about earlier. Like I said, it's not my type of music - the vocals border on cookie monster black metal garble in some parts - but for an amateur rock band I think they did a really good job and I love how the crowd gets all riled up during the "world... the time has come to... push the button" bits. I also think the song done in this style says something about Galvanize's versatility (ie it's pushes beyond just being a typical 'dace' song).

I don't know. It's all just opinions at the end of the day. I dig it. :lol: Much respect to a rock band taking the risk of incorporating their own style and covering a song dong by electronic artists.

The Magic Numerds released their "Close your eyes" live version on the I see you, you see me single

Noel Gallagher used to play Setting Sun in the acoustic part of Oasis concert during the 1998 tour.

Buenos Aires, Luna Park : http://youtube.com/watch?v=k01pzrClW1M

Tokyo, Budokan is the link posted above.

I think it could be sung a tiny bit faster. Anyways, I'm loving the sitar sounds. Sitar is such a great instrument.

@Csar

That BRB bass cover is probably one of the best chems covers on youtube. The same guy also does "Lost In The K-Hole". http://www.youtube.c...h?v=lz3za3j4zFg

Yup, that one's classic. I think it's been around here too somewhere.

Found this interesting video. Not a cover actually but nicely done imo:
