[@297fihsy]

Just the fact that these girls are covering Animal Collective is so encouraging, and the cover itself is fantastic too

[@unnlucky333]

i still listen to this cover 10 years later

[@TallinnCav]

One of the hardest songs to cover. This is so awesome.

[@maeiraldi]

A cover of AC that actually does their music justice! Awesome job doods!!!

[@cooltigermusic]

That's very good compared to other animal collective's covers !!! (and great voice too).

[@aeschill]

Wow, a beautiful rendition of one of my all time favorites.

[@HamSandwich09]

This is inexplicably amazing.

[@x-rayvision3802]

Such an underrated cover !! Just as underrated as the original. You girls killed it! I come back to this video every now and then. Hope you all are doing okay.

[@MagicTurtle643]

Wow. This performance blew me away. Your singer seems to have perfect pitch... jealous.

[@fmayan27]

This is, in a word, lovely. Well done guys! I'd love to hear more of your stuff (though it might be difficult considering you're all at different schools now)

[@jesusitox12]

[@dudeman4450]

the violin here emphasizes how amazing the melody of this song really is

[@nicksemail93]

I honestly logged on to favorite this and beg you to continue to pursue music and possibly make more covers. The composition you made was absolutely fantastic. The singer's voice is absolutely beautiful to hear. Please continue singing!

[@Re8eccAlice]

Holly balls, that was great! I was kind of excited to see you try screaming demonically like Avey, but what you did with the violin was super creative!

[@Retro_Naut]

this made me so happy i love you all

[@FreakFolk391]

You've got a really gorgeous voice. This is very well done! Kudos

[@twiggles1217]

I first heard this cover a couple years ago when I first heard of Animal Collective, and since then this has stayed as one of my favorite covers, not just of this song, but covers in general. Now that I actually know what I'm doing musically, I find it kind of silly to be so intrigued by what is just a guitarist and pianist hitting chords to a simple rhythm with a violinist covering a vocal melody, but I'm still so enthralled by the groove that the vocalist gets into, as well as how well the

[@Bubiizdabest]

This is amazing. I wish I could play this song/sing it

[@CharlotteLoseth]

this is absolutely incredible, I've been blown away.

[@ImNotComfyInNautica]

This made me smile. Most animal collective covers do not do that for me

[@Yankyal1]

That was really good!

[@ashleylennan]

the violin made me tear at one point, in a good way :D

[@AnnaElena]

[@ItsGrrreat]

[@porkfriedrice1530]

This is gorgeous

[@twiggles1217]

as well as how well the feel of the original song was captured. Kudos to you guys, keep it up.

[@oohlalovelove]

I love this a lot.

[@kamalmanzukie]

the singer has that trumpet-like jazz tone going on in her voice. love it.

[@adrenalinejunkiie3]

[@ShredSledWoodPush]

This has been my favorite song for 11 years, and you guys did a phenomenal version of it. If you had a studio to record in it would be beyond incredible. Keep on killing it ladies

[@KillerBeeEnt]

This is a fantastic rearrangement! charmingly preformed : )

[@brrnay]

i think leaf house would be a good one for you guys to cover.

[@MajoraMasks66]

I like the way the vocals were sped and paused.

[@Treeman987]

woah! you lot are great

[@ninotchkabh]

You're brilliant and not many people can actually figure out how to do one of their songs. Amazing, please come up with more.

[@FolkaMealaMole]

LZ! Something happened recently where my youtube account wasn't working. I wasn't too bothered because commenting is usually nonsensical, negative or dumb. But I just found your songs (through the awesome Grass cover) and had to do that nuisance signing-up business all over again just to get on here to say I've been totally gobsmacked my all your videos and that you utterly rock and soothe and rise above the tripe-ish crop of homemade youtube music.Virtual hugs to you!

[@brrnay]

wow, this is absolutely great. love the singers voice too wish she woulda went crazy with the pow now....

[@FixdalOK]

[@dyland5847]

wow holy fuck this is really fantastic..

[@pandasticus]

man that violin is perfect

[@lucidzirkus]

That's Arju Nishimura on the violin. 8 years later and finally getting the love it deserves. Arju was ahead of her time.

[@pandasticus]

Are you girls still doing music? Why not do some more covers together?

[@alliant]

agreed!

[@SolidTurtle]

really awesome cover, you guys should just rerecord it and mix it a bit, fix the audio levels. then it would be PERFECT

[@PatrickCederberg]

levels could be adjusted a wee bit but fantastic nonetheless, kudos ladies

[@sergios8277]

10/10

[@ShakeMeDown]

Genial!!!

[@lionrevolt]

wow

[@branderson88]

wow great cover. it doesnt even matter if there are minor differences thats what makes it fun and expressive. oh and not to sound like a creep but the vocalist is a cutie =]

[@emericanskatermatt]

@lucidzirkus i think its fine without the pillows.. you should of done the pow! pow! now! now! part tho.

[@composerdoh]

Indeed you lot are just precious. ;-) What kind of school do you go to that you have to rearrange songs? (I wish I went to THAT high school...) One thing- the violin drowns out the voice and makes it difficult to make out the words. I'm sure you noticed, but perhaps you could post the words for us?

[@thepurplebottle6]

LOVE THE VIOLIN. would you be so kind as to sending me the guitar chords for this ???

[@hampsterbb]

haha wow that was really good xD aybe you could try using a violin mute or something or play softer but wow xD i love your voice :D this is a really good cover :D

[@RAIDIOFACE]

well don im dazzled

[@quezacotl72]

please tell me you guys have a band...I would buy a ticket!

[@237productions]

lovely cover

[@aylanismello]

wow it's like a whole new dimension of that song was exposed to me in this version. props y'all are talented are you on soundcloud or anything like that?

[@CompyCore]

Constructive critiquing never hurts anyone. Seeing such a hostile comment on such a beautiful piece is much more an eyesore than a bit of advice.

[@giovannimcfly]

Amazing!!!!!! :D I love Anima Collective and its a good cover and the singer is very pretty :D

[@cookieplz]

@lucidzirkus since when was AC pop?

[@AdDeOWN]

This is really good! I love this alot, but the violin overvoiced the vocalist alot :/.

[@randomdude189]

AdDeOWN the vocals suck
