"Any beer in the Kitchen?" "Nah, just the brass section"

[@BoneBreakable]

Are you fucking kidding me?!?!? How can this have NOT Millions of views?! Like fuck, these Videos are PURE GOLD!

[@Semitotal]

I hear you, triangle!

[@alexrawlings541]

Covers of Punch Brothers songs are my spirit animal

[@adamkane4217]

At 1:46, when the backing vocals kick in.... chills.

YESS

[@LizBeth2778]

I want to cry a little...

[@mechtaphloba_]

I've watched this no joke probably 80 times and I just now noticed that delicate little bowl thing at 1:02 ❤

[@leonobles228]

OMG this is pure joy. Say what you will about this generation, if they can get on their iphones and coordinate to scrunch into a Brooklyn apartment and create THIS, then we of their parental generation can be proud as hell for bringing them into the world. This makes me proud to be a human being.

[@ApartmentSessions]

i keep re-reading this comment every month or so because it makes me smile. thank you -- luke

[@michaelsokolowski7143]

I've said virtually the same thing to so many people since discovering these videos.

[@curtturner5629]

I love the Bass in the Bathtub...

[@williambiggs2308]

bass need water so ... yeah, bathtub it is

[@paulflute]

wot you mean you don't have a bass in your bath tub..?? and a cellist on your loo.. weird.. ;9)

[@gemmaskate]

Just the technical aspect of recording everyone and having everyone hear the right stuff blows my mind

[@waywardmind]

This is what joy of music looks like. This is why people gladly suffer to create. You folks fucking nailed this -- to an untold and unquantifiable degree.

[@waywardmind]

How the fuck does this only have 25k views? This is extraordinary. I should parse that: Extra-Ordinary.

[@connierule3902]

You should watch all their other videos. They're just as good.

[@TrevorGomes]

This is insanely creative. It's almost repulsive how good the arrangement is.

[@talon6890]

What's repulsive is the sound mixing. But good on you for being able to 'preciate the simple things in life!

[@feel.s1304]

@@talon6890 They are recording in an apartment. It's not about sound quality, its about music quality, and the novelty aspect of a huge band recorded in an apartment.

[@kylereilly3259]

check this one out from the Stay Human band and Chris Thile. I think the arrangement in the above video is heavily based on the arrangement from SH: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fGOrqYtjgd90b5I

[@matthirn7858]

@@talon6890 while not world class, I've heard much worse recording efforts. That's a lot of musicians in a very small space.

[@DanielR367]

Yeah i was kinda mad too.

[@e.matthewmorris7469]

.....maybe Punch Brothers should produce a big band album with you all......

[@KurtQuinn]

I can't stop watching this over and over and over and over and over!

[@m2coy]

for 3 yrs now

[@OyeVato]

WHY AM I FINDING THIS 6 YEARS LATER?! This is an insanely creative way to display talent.

[@beenthere9770]

Wow, the new classical music, no patrons but patron, no concert hall but concentrated in the bathroom and the living room, a beautiful thing.

[@JBanchiere]

All that joy packed into such a small space!

[@timsippel8700]

This wins the internet today...and most days! So awesome! All of you are welcome to play in my kitchen, living room, bathroom anytime!

[@DaisyGraceA]

this is the greatest thing that has ever happened to me

[@waywardmind]

I can't help but agree. I only just saw this and was blown away.

That girls pure joy at the singing bowl... Seriously this is just great!

[@Michael.Dougherty]

I never thought anyone could give justice to the original- to me, it is a masterpiece, and one of my favorite pieces of all time... And three minutes in this cover had me crying. The chorus, build-ups, harmonies, and instruments all working together create the sense of wonder and celebration the original song brought to us. Instantly subscribed.

[@m2coy]

[@drewparrott9377]

This is mad respect to the punch brothers

[@beckyfagan9133]

This arrangement is so playful, and my 65-year-old self plays it for my 8-year-old self quite a lot!😊

[@kimberleerhodes774]

I broke down in literal tears listening to this! You guys are doing the Lord's work 🙌🏼

[@lemkmel]

UPDT

[@m2coy]

im 41. used to be in a band. since i was 14. wrote songs. got old. stopped playing the guitar. got bored with most music. but this... THIS... this is pure love.

[@rustyp69]

I think that's the first time I've ever heard Punch Brothers cover that I liked! That was splendid!

[@dannygoodman5185]

coming back to this 6 years later to fill up my bucket. just beyond words amazing

[@ms.muffin7592]

For whatever reason, this song makes me think of the phrase... "We are greater than our differences"

[@KilianSchindler]

What pervert disliked this? This is why I love music.

[@susananater8221]

This makes my heart full. It keeps the spirit of the original and adds a new level of joy and collaboration. Just perfect.

[@SeaMower]

Joy and talent visible from space!

[@goatlovesllama]

DANG! There are so few people who could really do a good Punch Brothers cover, but I think it just takes THIS many people to make it work! This is SO GOOD! :o

[@dearly1961]

As a 20 year instrumental music teacher in the LA schools-elementary middle and high school-and a huge Punch Brothers fan I love love love love this! Absolute genius arrangement! Great parts for everyone wonderful vocals-even a tasty bassoon solo! The instrumental Interlude before the last chorus was absolutely fantastic! Bravo to everyone and to your music teachers!

[@bilge4254]

My oh my, what a wonderful cover. Are you guys for real? This is one of the best things I've ever seen. The joy, the passion, the music, everyone, thank you.

[@joshhintze2708]

Ugh! I hate that stuff like this is happening without me!

[@RickyFicarelli]

You guys need to create some social media accounts for this project. Keep this brilliant content coming please!

[@TheSlicingSword]

this is the social media account

[@eduardocavalcanti]

wow! i'm a huge punch brothers fan and couldnt be more amazed.

[@yourmanb2310]

Adam Neely got me here Im in love. Also the tuba at 2:18 is delicious.

[@t.w.daniels6406]

Upon review, this might be one of the best songs ever writtern..

[@bobbystreets2653]

Very beautiful my friends, 1luv 🧡

[@marianodiaz5273]

Hi there, I dont know if I told you. Your work, this music, this version, help me survive pandemics and the worst time of my life. I was just singing it with you again a few minutes ago and gives me life, light and joy. Thanks.

[@LizBeth2778]

Making me cry it's so damn beautiful.

[@andrewgalloway7344]

What a force !

[@ianschmidt3464]

233,000 views, I take credit for 33,000 of those 😂 Every time I listen I hear a new part I hadn’t previously. Beautiful.

[@DeepForestRex]

I need to show this to my band teacher! XD

[@jameschalfant7567]

Well done folks ! BRAVO ! Thank you !

[@ktharms3562]

i cry every time i watch this video

[@wazawoo]

All those instruments but no mandolin? Haha, I'm not complaining, amazing video.

[@thescowlingschnauzer]

Dang, that Bill Monroe riff sounds good on a bassoon.

[@Hobojoemama]

Possibly my favorite cover of any song ever. Love the variety of instruments. You guys remind me of Snarky Puppy I love it

[@stevemckenna9667]

this is off the joy spectrum. THANK YOU

[@chriskohanek]

Still amazing four years later.

[@AdamHallacher]

0:44 the low brass blast... AWESOME

[@user-cv5ji1wo7t]

Sweet, ing seoul. thank you

[@TimothyraThomas]

The cut away to the bathtub made me lose it.

[@CANADIANBELLS]

This is all goosebump inducing. Wow. The 3 minute mark really SLAAAAPSSSS

[@hiroprotagonitis]

I'd bet a sufjan stevens track would sound really great for this, especially given what you guys have managed to do here. Phenomenal work!!

[@jacklandismusic]

Wow! It’s insane to me that this arrangement somehow manages to be entirely unique and rad in and of itself, while also maintaining the energy and feel of the original. Outstanding job, y’all!

[@Lamadesbois]

Loving the fact that the bassoon gets his time to shine at 1:29 & 4:12. Great playing from Lauren Yu Ziemba. What a piece of arrangement :)

[@ClassicalCrysis]

The double bassist is reading music off the shower wall!!! LoL! Very creative 👍😊!!

[@arthurguimaraesfranca8121]

my oh my, this dude can sing!

[@pique-nique]

Brilliant!

[@deagalore]

Y’all sound good as hell.

[@kathleenr2230]

this is by far my favorite thing on youtube. nothing beats how happy everyone looks. it's just a room full of people making something beautiful.

[@ericgilmore9734]

biggest thumbs up to a song I have ever seen

[@white_cloud_]

Im from UPDT nice music! ¡Vengo de UPDT genial música! Edit:Wow 9 likes!! O.o

[@traceydelfs2657]

Im at a loss for words to describe how much this moves me emotionally. Sheer human magic every time. Such a beautiful thing to have in this world.

[@jarihaiston7347]

This. All. Of. It.

[@MrStrangeSensation]

This is fucking incredible 😭😭😭 to not only do justice to the original, but actually elevate it and add somethin to an already near-perfect composition... just wow. Goosebumps.

[@mattslazik]

This is what music is all about; pure and spontaneous joy and creativity. Beautiful.

[@davidthiergartner908]

Excellent

[@jonathanldent]

so doooope

[@arielhernandez8216]

Beautiful

[@rudolfbenner4802]

Bathtub Bass? Love it.

[@luvbugerin]

RAD! This gives me goosebumps. 🥰 Also, with the Covid19 situation our world is in right now, I would love to see the "social distancing" compilation version of this song!

[@sdfasdfasdfsdfasdfsadf977]

So great. This might be my new favorite youtube channel.

[@theredlogician4743]

wow

[@greysautumn398]

This arrangement is so damn good. I find myself coming back to it so often

[@kmckinnonable]

Can't stop listening- I've had this on repeat all day. So good!

[@jonathanchaney5896]

Every time I watch this, I notice something new. The build to that final chorus is beautiful and then the voices layered. Amazing piece of arrangement!

[@TrevorLeaSmith]

Holy shit. That was captivating.

The original is already an awesome song as it is, but this is a really wonderful alternative interpretation and arrangement I wouldn’t want to be without. 👍🔥

[@jacobsale6939]

CHILLS.

[@thepatriotfarmer3580]

That was so Cool!

[@laurab3273]

I am so glad this video introduced me to this channel. Keep on being awesome, guys- we're out here, loving every minute.

[@Tony-lc7op]

love the lead singer

[@firstnameisthename1552]

why doesn’t this have more views?! absolutely masterful work

[@tommythornton4889]

The prop bong in the apartment really sells the set. Lol

[@roosterbeachrecords3813]

Great stuff, Love the sound and If the lead singer would sing like he did at the beginning at the end it would be stellar.

[@ryanbulmann7560]

Wow... So cool... One of my favorite songs done in a completely brilliant way... Love love love it!!!!!!

[@bluegrasstooth4026]

Man. This is good.

[@ShapiroMichael]

Sweet Christmas! This is one of the most incredible things I ever seen! I was there the night that the Punch Brothers performed this song for the first time for a live audience at a concert venue! You did it beyond justice! They should be very proud!!!!!

[@CARLOS-cn3of]

OMG this Chanel needs more than 1M subscribers

[@lucyfoster4082]

I haven’t been here in a while and was hoping to come back to find that this had garnered the twenty million views that it deserves.

[@GreatEgret]

I love this song and this version is amazing. The best part is when the beat box dude motions with his hand what his voice is doing.

[@evanseymour4172]

You guys absolutely kill it with this song 💪💥⚡️💯

[@10kscoedsk]

That dudes voice is spectacular!

[@noslemx6319]

wow this is other level up!!

[@stankyslayer]

When I saw it was a punch brothers cover I was prepared to not like it.... holy cow. This is incredible musicianship. One of my favorite videos on KZbin, behind keyboard cat of course.

[@MrFrankvomit]

oh my god that was incredible!i need to live in this apartment!

[@TonyWinston]

Can you guys keep it down? I'm trying to take a nap.
