[@MrSandManGiveMeADream]

its always impressive to me seeing idioteque on different instruments

[@daniwind2598]

2007? Such a gem, people still searching for this

[@KarmaKazi666]

This is very impressive. You turned it into a traditional sounding song but kept all the weird angst. Very impressive. Thanks from 2021!

[@christianlesurfmusic]

I love listening to acoustic covers of Idioteque and this is the best cover of it, bar none!

[@paynesmith3008]

IDK, give Birds of Bellwoods cover a chance.

[@notoriousjm95]

You should have a studio recording of this. Fabulous cover.

[@chellecat247]

Love her voice! She's an angel, with great taste in music and knows how to jam on the piano!

[@siliconmonday]

I know I’m SUUUPER late, but this is honestly one of the greatest covers I’ve ever heard in my life. I wish KZbin didn’t nuke the audio quality, really wish I could’ve heard this back when it was first uploaded

[@aIexjI]

starts at 1:25

[@chanerk]

This is very, very tasteful. I'm glad I found it.

[@Q.Q.]

"Very, very tasteful"... Is it possible to dress up a lukewarm compliment?... Can you make beige exciting?...

[@chanerk]

Just so you know, I drive the wheels off of my beige Lincoln Continental. And I'm simply very critical of all Idioteque covers. The original is a masterpiece, and no one wants to see a masterpiece defiled. This cover however, as illustrated in my original comment, was not.

Chandler Kelly WORD

[@Queer_Gabe]

I love this cover so so much.

[@pin1271]

Best cover of this song totally agree !! 5 stars

[@TakesTwoToTango]

Stuff like this is where music really comes to life... Seriously, this is the greatest honor I can imagine in a creative sector, to have people make a good cover of a composition you made. I seriously hope I ever write a song this great.

[@TwistedJabberjays]

I'd really like to see just an album of all covers by Vienna.

[@Niphredyl]

I think the classical instruments have too much resonance for the song, but the singing was amazing. Really hit the style, perfect pitch. Backing vocals aswell. Overall great stuff

[@kellang8676]

She seems so chill

[@ooloncolluphid9975]

Beautiful cover !! Expected a little more of a percussive "oomph" on the "Ice age coming" part, but still, bravo.

[@alexbliss9353]

Oolon Colluphid If you thought any less of it cause you expected something nd it didn't happen, when you ruined it for yourself.

[@user-tj4pe6rr3v]

agree. drum thing at that moment would really do better

[@rdoebel]

Can't get enough of this intensity, this precision - and tenderness at the same time!

[@jens2049]

Love everything about this video

[@pixlpuk3]

Omfg you took my favorite song and made me love it more

[@ryyu18]

Would love to hear this in hq. Great cover!

[@TGSWARFARE1]

absolutely great, coming from a radiohead fan.

[@davidmelius7292]

Thank you! Amazing. I almost never find what I am looking for and I finally found MUSIC:

[@DwarfJesus]

..This.. is amazing. It made idioteque sound a lot warmer and a lot more tender... Thanks for posting this.

[@C70W11]

Incredibly beautiful performance😭❤️

[@azazelegion]

Note to Radiohead: anything with strings that requires a bow of felt hammer is going to get people on your level of creepy cool, but you already know that.

[@alliswinday8885]

at last, after 11 years..im here

[@DarrenEffle]

This being one of my favorite songs, I love this cover to no end. Great 3:10 n

[@Jonathancowden1]

Fucking excellent. My favorite cover.

[@bigollameo]

With all this talent, Vienna must constantly be thinking: "Damn it feels to good to be a gangsta!"

[@triviumatic17]

you blew my mind with that cover.

[@NoName-np8ko]

Just watching you made me straighten up my posture and now my back doesn't hurt so much. Thank you. Seriously!

[@luish3897]

Great cover. Even more eery than the original. Goosebumps!

[@viniciusallin]

Truly impressive

[@JonasKragt]

amazing

[@rtremblay87]

im speechless

[@chino0moreno]

Love the start with the drumer

[@justinorville]

Trust me you do about six months ago I ran into a song by them called "My Iron Lung" and now six months later I own all their albums and their my favorite band

[@MirellaBellido]

beautiful

[@BrittTheGirl]

Amazing! I didn't know what to expect as a big Radiohead fan. I thought I might not like it, but you did a really great job.

[@FadhilAsyrafi]

Golden cover... Been so long since uploaded, a new viewer like me still comes in.

[@lukepappas8790]

Thank you Bluecoats Drum and Bugle Corps for introducing me to Vienna Teng.

[@Jpetersson]

Wonderful! Really, really nice :-D Please do more Radiohead covers, I´d love to see covers of The Weepies, Coldplay and other great bands like that as well...

[@Calzas]

completamente apaixonada por essa versão

[@giapponerosso]

Wow. Speechless

[@optimisticdr888]

EXCELLENT cover!!!!!!!

[@bredlo]

Wonderful! A modern, jarring song interpreted by some obviously extremely talented classical musicians. What a neat result.

[@tvviewer4500]

very cool

[@tenkcalperpiece]

I really like this pianist! Vienna Teng . . .

[@nemmys]

This is one of the most beautiful tribute one could have ever made to Radiohead, this is amazing. You are amazing, thank you.

[@GetSumNutz]

Absolutely class!! Only change id make would be having him come in loud on the bass and snare for the "ice age" parts. I think the build up to that part and then it kicking in is pretty sweet. Still brilliant cover!

[@alexbliss9353]

GetSumNutz Well make a cover with those changes and we'll see if it's better than this. ;)

[@JaskierStark]

One of the best covers if ever seen. Just speechless

[@krissi2]

when I started watching the video I was like: ok.. this song is hard to cover... and when I reached 2:40 I was reduced to "WOW!" this was brilliant!

[@SplicedUp]

Definitely the best Idioteque cover I've seen/heard.

[@JoseWhon]

This is really amazing! mesmerizing.....

[@MindLessWiz]

Brilliant!!! I enjoyed this thoroughly. Such a cool take on this indescribable song.

[@CharlesBaudelaire11]

exactly what my friends and family said when i tried introducing them to radiohead!

[@PyrozPlayground]

Wow this is actually making me tear up a bit. Especially when it goes into 2:28... that's so beautiful. Such a serene cover. :*)

[@RPete100]

So much talent on earth. Lovely!

[@hesterjulia42]

Amazing cover of an amazing song - keep it up!

[@jaredsaltus]

[@Stargazer1990]

I actually like this cover better than the original--and that's saying something, because Idioteque is one of my favorite Radiohead songs!

[@dirkardostevergreen4827]

Very good!

[@averyellis]

thanks for the start time! 1:26

[@ufo_friend]

a-ma-zing, damn

[@fenomozo9108]

1:30

[@icq4ever]

wow. this is super nice!

[@40thCapeRifles]

Between the harmony vocals and the awesome use of the looper, this might be my favourite cover of this song. Hell, it might be better than the original. There's something alot more interesting with the energy here than in the original. Like it's not "quiet," per se, it's just...waiting. Just amazing stuff. I love it.

[@AudioCrossingVideos]

oh my god, this is fucking sick. talent.

[@thedamnbored]

very very good, passionate and intense :)

[@Grognax]

Holy shit...
