Local H - Wolf Like Me (Studio Version)

Local H
"Wolf Like Me"
(TV On The Radio Cover)
Just like with their grungey cover of "Toxic", Local H once again takes a song that isn't their own to a whole nother level. Don't forget to rate and comment! LOCAL H RULES!!!

[@vivalachewy]

My band got to open for Local H in 2004 at the Cleveland Music Festival. It was the night before my birthday I've been a Local H fan since the first album. After the show I talked to Scott and we did a bunch of shots together for my birthday..Thanks Scott..Local H rules..I first met Scott and Brian in 2001 after a show at Peabodys in Cleveland class act all the way..

This is the single best cover of one of the best rock songs in history. You’re legends!

[@stevefirth2013]

Tell Local H they would appreciate it.

i intend to see these two fellas perform again and I bet you will be there and we can chat about what i know about this song they cover! I agree with You! HOWLIN FOREVER! if ya dig in to the KZbin stuff on the interweb, You might find a cover of 25 or 6 to 4 by chicago...or...not sure You will find a recording of it...but...i am pretty sure there was an attempty at RUSH 2112. Successful attempt, no doubt. i have listened to tons of music and these two have BLOWN me away! Incredible lyrics for original compositions. AND...I think He is the best guitar player I have ever seen...and Ryan reminds me of Matt Abts who is the guy that those two fellas left the Allman Brothers to start that Gov't Mule thing. LOCAL H is the tightest band I have ever heard. and just because there are only two of them doesnt mean it is easy to keep it together like that! Exceptional!

best cover I've heard in a while I listen to it on repeat

[@acrossyourself]

The best cover of this song out there. We did a cover ourselves (you can find the vid on our channel) trying to emulate both TV's multiple layers of sound and the straightforward rock distortion of this one.

[@marvinshenk]

Wow, I've watched this like a thousand times. I love Local H.

Say, say, my playmate Won't you lay your hands on me? Mirror my malady Transfer my tragedy Got a curse I cannot lift Shines when the sunset shifts When the moon is round and full Gotta bust that box, gotta gut that fish My mind's aflame We could jet in a stolen car But I bet we wouldn't get too far 'Fore the transformation takes And bloodlust tanks and crave gets slaked My mind has changed My body's frame but God, I like it My heart's aflame My body's strained but God, I like it Charge me your day rate I'll turn you out in kind When the moon is round and full Gonna teach you tricks that'll blow your mongrel mind Baby doll, I'll recognize You're a hideous thing inside If ever there were a lucky kind It's you, you, you, you I know it's strange another way to get to know you You'll never know unless we go, so let me show you I know it's strange another way to get to know you We've got till noon, here comes the moon So let it show you, show you now Dream me, oh dreamer, down to the floor Open your arms and let them weave on yours Feel me, completer, down to my core Open your heart and let it bleed on yours Feeding on fever, down on all fours Show you what all that howl is for Hey, hey, my playmate Let me lay waste to thee Burned down their hanging trees It's hot here, hot here, hot here, hot here We're howling forever, oh, oh Got a curse we cannot lift Shines when the sunshine shifts We're howling forever, oh, oh There's a cure that comes with a kiss The bite that binds, the gift that gives We're howling forever, oh, oh Now that we got gone for good Writhing under your riding hood We're howling forever, oh, oh Tell your grandma and your mama too It's true, true, true We're howling forever, oh, oh (x3) We're howling forever (x5) We're howling (x8) We're howling forever (x2) We're howling We're howling forever (x3)

Local H is probably one of my favorite bands ever, but I'll admit that I like the original better. Like someone else said, the original just evokes more emotion. That being said, I wouldn't even know the original without Local H's cover.

@samurai5625 just a question... does jack white of the white stripes have bass pickups in his guitar? like in seven nation army?

[@TriumphT140]

@samurai5625 When I listen to the radio and they play 90s music I often find myself at a loss. I love NIN, Tool, and Pearl Jam. And then you get the Nirvana fans. But how often do you hear Local H? Or Stabbing Westward, Filter, Sponge, Faith No More, Our Lady Peace... or any of the other really great bands that seem to have been forgotten in such a short time?

[@MrBigrob420247]

[@adamrutkowski807]

The punk band wolf face does the best version of this song.

[@DeathPunk4Life]

Better than the original!

[@kargath101]

@samurai5625 its not that they are overlooked and underrated, they are just a band that stays true to their roots. rather than get mad famous and sell out enourmous stadiums, they would rather to cheap and free shows around the local chicago area because they stay true to their fans. they dont sell-out for the money. they do it for the experience and for the bands. a true band that embraces the real meaning of music. not something you see nowadays. local h is the best band ever for that.

[@valentindegen]

GOD FUCKING YESSSSSSS

[@derangedsynthesizer7598]

According to wikipedia, the single: Wolf Like Me was released by TVOTR in 2006. This youtube post predates that by several years. Just curious if anyone has a solid breakdown of the timeline.

[@dankyboi6483]

Number one, this was released 2009. Number two, KZbin went online in 2005 which is one year before tvotr's release, not several so what the hell are you talking about?

[@Th3CrimsnChin]

@rally240 No, TV On The Radio is the original. You can just look these things up.

[@tsukishiro70]

i love this song, no matter the singer. or the accompanying video. (look for Gnomechewer's Gilnean like me on KZbin. )

[@cliquehop]

probably the best cover i've heard of this....now cover "Condition Oakland" by Jawbreaker, and I'll be fucking impressed.

[@icopioni5398]

The Holbein Hoax version is better than this, but the original one remains the best ever

[@bigfatamishbob6935]

this is my favorite cheese weasel

[@PaulApanowicz]

Cool COVER, but IMO nobody can tear this song up like TVOTR. Seriously, this is awesome and still like half as good as original. I need to see these guys live though!!!!

[@PaulApanowicz]

Fine, I +1 it mahself!

[@jessestuckman6008]

Local H best band to come out of the last 25 years and will never get the credit they really deserve for the years of great music. Scott is the coolest 'rock star' I've ever seen and the coolest you could ever meet but he is a real music fan and covers a wide range of songs from any time or genre better than anyone somehow. But you can never do a song quite like the person who wrote or created it, some case paid to sing

[@LCash-ro5kp]

local h fuggin sucked 20 years ago. & they suck now. suprised to even find out this dick made music after 1997. only here cuz i wanted to see how bad the original was bastardized. this is a straight cover, worse than the original. the dummer BLOWS.

[@revolutionday1]

[@gopro2027]

Anyone who says "fuggin" wasn't around 20 years ago. The band isn't shit because you think it is, everyone has different taste.

[@X1xone]

I like Local H better as a band then TV on the Radio, but I must say I like the original a lot better. This just feels tame in comparison....less feeling.

[@ItsNotMeitsYouTu8e]

Same same. The original is a more complex/layered production too. Like this one too tho.

[@r8dj]

yea 6 people vs. 2 people tool

[@TylerZomboiLee]

the original has a whole layer of guitar that local H lacks because they're only two people

[@davidgoldman86]

Who's the dude at 4:39?

[@Sagebigly7]

Local H is the shit!

[@AnonsCrossfader]

This is far from better than the original.

[@TheBriggs13]

I agree but one thing going for them is it it is a 2 man band doing the work of many even live

[@badbeans69]

Nice. Better then the original

[@ACadaver]

That guitar at around 0:54 is fucking awesome. I remember having those little green stickers with the angry faces all over the telephone in my kitchen years ago. ESP is a great company. The Tossers rock. Local H is awesome. I love that guitar so fucking much, I'd have sex with it.... Oh, this cover is really good too. I prefer it to the original, but I heard it first, so ah well.

@me0on0utube I don't know, maybe there's something wrong with your speakers?
