    This is not a song that should be covered. It's absolutely perfect. Don't touch it

    Judging on everybody reaction I am reaffirmed in my decision to not listen to this, but I will say if want a good cover of this long look no further then the accapella version sang in bio shock infinite. It's incredible and I've listened to long after playing the game.

    Before listening—as a huge Beach Boys fan—I couldn't imagine this cover being anything but disappointing. Wasn't prepared for it being as bad as it is, though.

    As a huge BB fan too.. I think they did a pretty decent (and respectful) job covering "God Only Knows". I'd kill for an instrumental version of this.. yeh not fan of AV7 vocals :eh:

    Oh, they ruined it? I thought the song was a hit and most people liked it. I think it's a great cover and his voice is really good in it.

    A lot of people like it. Just a personal preference of mine that I don't. Sound Of Silence is also one of my favorite songs so maybe that's why

    Didn't they also ruin a Simon & Garfunkel song? Or am I thinking of someone else?

    I don't know what's worse. The song, or the YouTube comments not realising this is a cover.
