[@JohanZero]

Absolutely wonderful💗👏👏👏 10 more of these and you got a new cover album...easy😅

[@mcaws]

thank you so much for the encouragement johan!

[@timmurray2692]

I’m so glad this is available to listen to and watch (on KZbin at least). I saw it on the Adam Schlesinger tribute and loved it immediately. I didn’t think I would ever get to listen to it/see it again. Thank you!

[@mcaws]

belated thank you so much tim! i'm so glad you enjoyed it!

[@jaredtetzlaff1590]

Can't wait to hear this live. The harmony possibilities are fantastic. I assume that's not Doug and Daniel on backing voc's. Your voices blend wonderfully. Great choice for a cover - never heard the original but first audit I was singing along. I anticipated every passing note and the root/ harmony notes I didn't guess, just blended right in. Just a really sweet and comforting piece. Doesn't quite have the writing depth of Caws lyrics but hey, not everyone can turn a swarm of insects into a meditation on existence in the course of four minutes

Fruit Fly... my fav from Nada Surf, for many reasons. And maybe the first time Matt uploaded a home video on KZbin?
