Wish I had money for this

[@TormentoOscuro]

Damn, 90 bucks. That's like... while DoorDash order. Can I starve for a few days? ...Life says yes.

[@matthewbaer7871]

What about the little raspy guy

[@moshibass]

@matthewbaer7871 the little white face was taken off of an "Otamatone Melody Z".

[@elipsis1273]

PLEASE MAKE MORE OF THESE, THIS WAS AMAZING

[@SoraZ2112]

I freaking LOST it at 2:03 with the Otamatone angry whisper. This is so good. 😂💀

[@jchavez789]

omg SAME!!!!! I open and watch that clip at least once a day now.

[@seansamurai1981]

Me and you both. Proper spat my coffee out at that bit

[@troodon1096]

Appropriately enough, there was nothing inside.

[@IzayoiArwena]

Yes and Im worried that its a damaged one, cut head from its body

[@roselover411]

And it kept getting closer to the camera XDD

[@Karishma_Unspecified]

I don't know what's worse: the fact I know exactly what words each of those otamatones are supposed to be saying, or that they are so close to the original that I can believe they are saying them. Great work!!

[@moistnugget4147]

I was also singing along in my head

[@Aiken47]

And the words they miss

[@JamesR624]

Considering you can actually hear some of the consinents that otamatones are not capable of making (take a look at TheRealSullyG for what one ACTUALLY sounds like), it's pretty obvious a talkbox is being used.

[@moshibass]

@JamesR624 no talkbox! I'm recording with a mic and opening and closing the mouth a lot to change the sound. Sully records by plugging his directly with the "line out" so that's why this sounds different 🙂

[@eDrumsInANutshell]

I got my Otamatone yesterday on my 44th birthday....yeahhhheee.. My wife and kids are going to leave me. 😂 That's so cool. ... the Otamatone... Not being alone. And no, these vowels are changed when pressing the cheeks of the Otamatone. Recording via line out makes no sense. Would be like recording vocals with a piezo sticked to your throat... Anyway, a talk box uses the fact that many changes of the human voice is changed with the volumes and geometry of the skull. That's why you sound different with a bad sinusitis. Sound comes from a synth and your head is forming the vowels. Is that right? Ok, I have to calibrate my otamatone.

[@robertborland5083]

I enjoy the music, but I want to express how much love how dramatic this video. The flair! The panache! That carries the video from being a solid cover to being absolutely incredible.

[@moshibass]

Thank you so much!!

[@dansbigfanguitarist]

You literally can’t explain it better than this, I completely and wholeheartedly agree… freaking hilarious and musically nailed it

[@silvialimeme3706]

I saw an instagram reel of this and didn't want it to end, today the full version blessed my yt feed. It's glorious.

[@moshibass]

So glad the full version found you!!

[@NeilDavis10]

Same thing happened to me

[@flabort]

It pops up in my imgur scrolling from time to time, it always cuts off after about 50 seconds. Full version is great!

[@Rama1996ss4]

The lyrics are so clear. This song is an emotion

[@neodarlek]

Yeah, it took me right back

[@TheShaanHaider]

2:48 to 2:58 was the peak of awesomeness 😂

[@ImTopin]

Using the white one for the screamo bits killed me. This is amazing

[@vixen_lovee]

I CHOKED ON AIR LMFAO

[@rebecca-rosesantamaria254]

Funniest thing I’ve watched in my entire life, my stomach hurts, I’m so glad I’m not in public. I lost it when the 3rd one joined but I think I broke the sound barrier at the little white one. I could hear every lyric. I haven’t laughed that hard in a long time. Thank you for blessing our ears with this absolute masterpiece

[@niklreagz]

I came to comment the same thing!! I almost fell out my bed 😂 Laughing so hard I’m crying. I needed this today😂😊

[@waaarum]

i didnt had to laugh at all, i just thought it sounds beautiful :D

[@0110101011101010101]

i let my guard down and the little white one got me good

[@shannonmcguire1313]

This deserves to win both a Grammy and an Oscar.

[@Not_An_EV]

*THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE BANGER!* Like no joke this is an insanely good cover and an excellent example of how the brain can fill in recognisable sound bites for the lyrics as long as you have the previous knowledge of how it should sound! So it's like you can hear the lyrics even though they are not there! Bravo! This is a masterpiece!

[@moshibass]

Thank you!

[@TheRealCreeper]

i've never heard the song before

[@Not_An_EV]

@TheRealCreeper then, as a test, go listen to the original, then come back and see if you are capable of hearing the lyrics even though none are present. It's a phenomenon that affects some of the human race but not all. QI, a British show did a bit on it once and it was quite fascinating, to be honest!

[@dannynysus]

​@@Not_An_EVSo..... ...how's life under the bridge? 🚐

[@ZexalDSJAsh]

I have heard some decent Otamatones before, but this ACTUALLY sounded like skilled playing, and I swear I could hear them saying "Bring me" whenever you played. This has no right being as good as it is, but here it is. Brought by an amazing KZbinr, and skilled musician, no less, using Otamatones. I wasnt sure to expect coming into this, and I am completely blown away by it. Im on mobile, so it shows a comment someone made. "I want this played at my funeral." I thought that was an exxaggeration, but... no. No this was so damn good that i would honestly want this played at mine too. Man. Now I gotta hear more of your stuff. Really well done. Keep up the good work, okay? 🎉

[@moshibass]

Thank you so so much!!

[@ZexalDSJAsh]

@@moshibass no problemo. Please keep up the good work. ^^

[@janharley13]

Was waiting for that pre-bridge part where he’s whispering “i’ve been living a lie”.. i must say i wasn’t disappointed 😂😂😂 and even the harmonies are on point.. You just made my day man! 😂😂😂

[@moshibass]

Thanks 😄 I had to experiment a bit to figure out a good whisper sound

Honestly so impressed how much you nailed the tuning, as well as the tonality and vibrato to the point it almost sounds like a voice. Best thing I've seen in a while!

[@leandroagonzalez3]

You do this with your voice when you don't know the lyrics. It's not hard

[@auroradannells1331]

The harmonies! I’ve sang this song millions of times but I didn’t realize how integral the harmonies on the chorus and the bridge are! Amazing 😭😭

[@Vevemusic]

That fucking orange one kills me. Very flavorful that you had one to do screams with just noise and no notes. People often forget those specifics, backing vocals and such. Well done 💯🫵

[@chrisl5246]

Gudetama is a whole mood ❤

[@Bentfrombeyond]

I believe it's an egg 😂

[@zaraheart]

If ya gone forgot to add that then they can’t hear very well lol. Those parts make the song just as much as the main vocals

[@TehButterflyEffect]

Why must you ruin your comment with foul language?

[@wingnutmcspazatron3957]

Moo moo, moo, moooo

[@st0lf]

Can we just appreciate how much work went into this? Holy shit! Like it's not just playing the song with these goofy guys, it's making an impression of evanescence with them. This is not just hilarious but also really impressive

[@marmaladecorgi]

The poetic weight of the lyrics that go "My spirit's sleeping somewhere cold Until you find it there and lead it back home.... MWAMWAMWA (MWAMWA) MWAMWAMWA (MWAMWA)" Hits hard every time.

[@RyokoYM]

I can hear your comment in my head, HAHAHA and i lost it everytime

[@aaronazrael902]

I just watched this at first for the lolz but then I was actually very impressed. It takes a lot of talent and effort to create a masterpiece like this!

[@JDredwind]

This gave me absolute chills. How did you pack this with so much emotion?

[@treiz01]

It's the vibrato. Being able to adjust tone on the fly like this makes it sound more like a voice

[@Chumaru1004]

the hand movements is what make this song emotional

[@lewisparrin3467]

looooooooooooool

[@Ragnar0xx0rz]

Yep, that head-bobbing really drives it home.

[@jessArcade]

Everybody else is wrong. It's because Evanescence wrote such a banger that the emotion comes through no matter the medium.

[@lagmuncher]

It sounds like the best trio of deaf vocalists you could assemble got together and somehow learned how to recreate this beautiful arrangement

[@2nd3rd1st]

Today's youth with their jazz trios and 16th century overtures on loop just don't understand what real music like this is anymore. I remember my first Otamascence concert as if it was two days ago and it shaped my character and my future like no other music!

[@mimiquoi7380]

Seriously.. why this is so GOOD !? And so.. FUNNY at the same time. The choice of Kirby is perfect XD

[@zachofragnarok3067]

So help me if this doesn't blow up on KZbin. This was legitimately such a great and creative cover. Thank you for doing this man, I've been sharing it around to all my friends.
