"What's Up?" 25 years and my life is still Tryin' to get up that great big hill of hope For a destination I realized quickly when I knew I should That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man For whatever that means And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed Just to get it all out what's in my head And I, I am feeling a little peculiar And so I wake in the morning and I step outside And I take a deep breath and I get real high And I scream from the top of my lungs "What's going on?" And I say, hey-ey-ey Hey-ey-ey I said "Hey, a-what's going on?" And I say, hey-ey-ey Hey-ey-ey I said "Hey, a-what's going on?" Ooh, ooh Ooh Ooh, uh huh Ooh, ooh Ooh Ooh, uh huh And I try Oh my God, do I try I try all the time In this institution And I pray Oh my God, do I pray I pray every single day For revolution And so I cry sometimes when I'm lying in bed Just to get it all out, what's in my head And I, I am feeling a little peculiar And so I wake in the morning and I step outside And I take a deep breath and I get real high And I scream from the top of my lungs "What's going on?" And I say, hey-ey-ey Hey-ey-ey I said "Hey, what's going on?" And I say, hey-ey-ey Hey-ey-ey I said "Hey, a-what's going on?" And I say, hey-ey-ey (Wake in the morning and step outside) Hey-ey-ey (Take a deep breath and I get real high) (And I scream) I said "Hey, a-what's going on?" And I say, hey-ey-ey (Wake in the morning and step outside) Hey-ey, yeah yeah yeah (Take a deep breath and I get real high) (And I scream) I said "Hey, a-what's going on?" Ooh, ooh Ooh Ooh, uh huh 25 years and my life is still Tryin' to get up that great big hill of hope For a destination, mmm

[@Agnst]

holy, when did Audra get this good. her singing in this one is insane, definitely demonstrates her vocal ability very well.

[@djbslectures]

Big +1

[@teebes2009]

She's been good for quite a while, and has been getting better along with the rest of the band. They've become one of goto's along with several of their collaboration buddies.

[@Agnst]

​@@teebes2009 true!

[@FirstToEleven]

we can’t let you know we’re *too* good… have to keep you guessing so we don’t set the bar too high 😉 haha thanks everyone!

[@julioversolato6728]

Does she use autotune tho?

[@gabs2264]

Audra's singing has really improved this year. Y'all are all very talented. This one's my favorite.

[@fkim312]

Improved is an understatement, it's almost like a completely different singer, more confident and delivering more punch and drive to her performance. I used to think she was the weakest link of the band before, now I'm super impressed.

[@legendaryTMNICO]

Ann Wilson of Heart should also do a cover of What’s Up.

[@jessehiatt9225]

Best cover of this son Ive ever heard. She has the perfect voice for this song.

[@DenDave_]

Audra's range of styles is actually ridicilous. How does she make every genre sound amazing and just right

[@teebes2009]

Like her collab with Violet Orlandi and Addie from Halocene singing the Wellerman acapella.

[@jonataseliel]

Amazing!!!!!! this band is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G !!!

[@psipsipsi1621]

This call autotune

[@Ownz1982]

Haha u wish

[@Nerfzisback]

@@psipsipsi1621 yeah she uses it but she can also sing very good

[@The_Green_Knight_8888]

I've heard this song a thousand times, but I've never felt it till now.

[@FirstToEleven]

love this.

[@paultinwell5557]

Finally! Finally a tune which really demonstrates the incredible talent of this group. Every time you publish something new it seems to raise the bar. Keep it up!!

[@cesardelcastilloyurrita9344]

The first time I heard this Cover, I remember thinking "oh my gosh, if Audra starts singing that high pitched, I don't think she'll be able to climax the highest treble..." But she did it. Now, a year later, I celebrate it with amazement.

[@tylerts97]

This acoustic EP really is great. Also, happy birthday Matt!

[@TheKreepykritter]

This song is basically purpose built for Audra's vocals. Nicely done.

[@heaththompson6034]

Audra, just outstanding performance!! I've been a fan of Audra's singing - and the entire band - for a couple of years now. I think what's missing in a lot of songs is Audra just letting loose on the vocals - because she definitely can. This is a great example of when she does. Audra, you have an AMAZING talent; please keep letting it free like you did here. As always, you guys as a band rock!!!

[@TimothyOHaver]

My sentiments exactly! I’ve thought this for a long time. Let that vocal beast loose Audra, you are phenomenal!

[@trinity95624]

Seems that her confidence is growing to match her talent. They all strike me as excellent.

[@stanleyhornbeck1625]

Audra I could listen to you for hours!

[@denniswebb341]

She doesn't let loose because she can't. Her voice is nice but she doesn't have power. Mayve a few more years and it will get stronger.

[@stevenwells5670]

She is like a dual threat quarterback. Power and presentation. Don't have to be the best at both but the combination will carry the day. She and the band are incredible.

[@Bart91127]

I've seen and heard pro singers slip off in the tricky,angular intervals of this song,this girl totally nails the rendition with her perfect-pitched, angelical voice..simply BRAVO!!!

[@billyhill2488]

This one was really smooth and easy on the ears. Good job y'all. And also nostalgic as all get out.

[@chrisso1985]

That little bit of gravel in Audra's voice, it really makes this song. This song really shows off her range and talent too. The musical arrangement is spot on too. Great work all round guys

[@aurums92]

Cover of the month, I suppose? Love it, totally fits autumnal mood 🧡

That was simply amazing! The acoustics were unbelievable and Audra’s vocals were fabulous! Saw you the first time at the TriC High School Rock Off and knew from that day that you were all something special. Have listened ever since both the covers and your own original stuff as Concrete Castles! Keep the jams coming. Great Job F211!

[@justinsmith413]

I just found your channel and I've been binge watching your videos. When I saw this song I thought....uh oh, she's covering Linda Perry? That's pretty risky cuz Linda's voice is incredible, having said that you killed this vocally. It's pretty awesome to see you guys do any genre and do it well.

[@TimothyOHaver]

Wow! Definitely one of your best performances! What a great song to show your true vocal range and potential. The falsetto and that high range rasp! I’m definitely more a fan today than I was before but have always been a fan! Keep pushing yourself, you’re killing it.

[@horaciomaidana1055]
