youtube covers

Cheap entertainments on a break at work sometimes includes surfing youtube. My favorite thing to do is pick a favorite song and see who has tried to cover it and put it up on youtube.

The results in search are usually hilarious. Sometimes there will be a overly intoxicated girl singing a karaoke version, but usually it is an 8th grade boy with his guitar in his bedroom.

I've been listening to this song all week driving around because it feels so summery, and I felt the need to revive my old Weezer music from 10 years ago, and here I found a guy with a pretty good voice. And it has all the classic youtube musts: you and your 90 lbs roommate, sitting on a twin sized bed in a cramped dorm room, next to a plastic garbage can, and the lighting too dark and half your guitar not in the frame.
