This cover was sent in to us and I thought they did a pretty damn good job.

Needs to turn down the fuzziness on everything like fuck.

Also they didn't exactly do much with it. I mean, it's a tight cover, but it's, well, the same. Not missing anything by sticking to the original.

It's good! But Holiday just feels empty without the harmonies and the "HEY!"s

This sounds exactly like the original and is quite boring.

I liked it. Sounds really good in my opinion.

It was ok but it just sounded off.

I think he did a pretty good job considering he decided to do the original version and not his own. It's a shame the quality wasn't very high.

It's a decent cover but, like everyone else is saying, they did nothing with it. No original spin or anything. If anything, it will go against them as it sounds like they are trying for Green Days sound instead of their own. Of course it's a cover and all, but I'd like to see them take another crack it by putting an original spin on it.

It's the cymbals, they mess the mix up quite a bit.
I agree, it's a really tight cover, but nothign more. Oh well.

Ugh. Every time we post a cover comments are bitching how it's unoriginal, or how it's unlike the original.

Unfortunately you can't please everyone and it's a shame when they're usually very talented people.

I've yet to see one be unlike the original, which is what I've seen most people be bothered by as well as myself. It's cool that they did i so well and close to the original, but if it's being done to promote their sound than it won't help too much. I'd have much rather seen them try to put some interesting twist on it or at least sing it a bit differently, it's pretty much spot on to the original.

to help, maybe I'm working on one that I think changes the song quite a bit, so I'll upload it when done and maybe that'll help show what I'm saying. I want something different, like how the Broadway Cast Recording changed those songs so much but they're still the same songs at the core. Just not some dubstep remix or anything.

I think GDA might have posted this cover one time, which is a little different than the original. As well as this acoustic cover that fookin rulz

I actually enjoyed it. The missing 'Heys' make it seem empty somehow but overall its good!

The bass needs to be more thumping and powerful.

I've seen the florence ones and they're neat. I never saw the acoustic one posted. Those are examples of covers that do their own thing with the songs ,wheras this one just keeps it the same. I'm not much of a fan of the latter.

You guys know it says "demo" in the title, right? It's really not surprising they didn't go any farther than recreating the original.

[Edit:] Also just heard the solo. It's really cool that they didn't use a second guitar to do it. Makes think Green Day should have done it like that, I liked it.

I liked the one they recorded in his kitchen a lot better :/

2:24, that drummer is Daniel Craig.

I really like the sound! It's a very good cover.

Only a few drum beats sounded a little bit off, and the bass could use some more groove, but other than that I enjoyed it. :)
