Kelly Clarkson Performs "Somebody That I Used to Know" [VIDEO]

The Rob — Fri, 24 Aug 2012 11:35:36 +0000

The parade of Kelly Clarkson covers continues! I’ve been enjoying the recent onslaught of cover songs from Kelly Clarkson concerts. First was Eminem’s “Lose Yourself,” as well as Carly Rae Jepson’s “Call Me Maybe” and others. This time while on Long Island, New York Kelly broke into Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used to Know.” [...]

The Rob — Tue, 14 Aug 2012 12:32:58 +0000

And it’s AWESOME!! Gotye’s official YouTube page has released an alternate version of the music video for “Somebody That I Used to Know.” What makes it even cooler is that the video is a montage of other YouTube versions of the song! Get a load of this video!

'Star Wars' I Used to Know Maybe Best Gotye Parody Yet [VIDEO]

Ryan O'Bryan — Wed, 27 Jun 2012 22:22:27 +0000

The Force is strong with this one (sorry, I couldn’t help it). The original trilogy is still some of my favorite all time movies. Even 30+ years after they debuted, they still stand the test of time with a great story and special effects that aren’t too terribly cheesy compared to today’s computer-generated fare. It’s been [...]

Karmin Covers 'Somebody That I Used To Know'

when I was on vacation last week in Alabama, I kept hearing this version of Gotye's 'Somebody That I used To Know' everywhere, and I was like who is this covering this song, and why do I like it so much? When I googled it, I found this gem, and realized why I like it so much, because it's Karmin, and if you know me, you know I love me some Karmin!

I saw this video and thought it was incredible. It is the band Fun. and Hayley Williams of Paramore covering "Somebody That I Used To Know from Gotye.

Dog And Cat Cover Gotye's 'Somebody That I Used To Know'

Melissa Awesome — Fri, 01 Jun 2012 23:23:56 +0000

so I'm beginning to think that Carly Rae Jepson's 'Call Me Maybe' and Gotye's 'Somebody That I Used To Know' might be two of the most covered, and parodied songs on the interwebz. But for good reason both are totally catchy. Now the group that proudly calls themselves 'Dogtye' is doing their own spin on 'Somebody That I Used To Know' This has to be one of my favorite covers though, mainly because it's so cute.

Check Out The New Single From Gotye

Big Boy — Wed, 23 May 2012 00:08:11 +0000

I will admit when I first heard Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used To Know” I was not that crazy about it. Over time I have grown to love it. I could listen to it over and over again. It is amazing. I am excited that he has a new single out. You can check it [...]

Cute Little Girls Take on Gotye's 'Somebody That I Used to Know' [VIDEO]

Ryan O'Bryan — Thu, 17 May 2012 22:30:08 +0000

It seems like Gotye has found a solid fan base in the youth of America. All it takes is one cute kid video becoming a viral hit to spawn a series of imitators. While this video isn’t as “polished” as the one I posted here a couple of weeks ago, it’s still pretty darn adorable. [...]

Speed Rapper Rewrites Gotye Hit

The Rob — Thu, 17 May 2012 16:31:22 +0000

You’ve got to see this kid to believe it! This video pleases me on three levels: -The lightning-like speed of this young man’s rap, including the ability for the listener to register what he’s saying. -It stresses the importance of grammar, which is one of my main pet peeves. -It uses the [...]

Young Brother and Sister Lip Sync 'Somebody That I Used to Know' By Gotye [VIDEO]

Ryan O'Bryan — Tue, 08 May 2012 20:54:57 +0000

Nearly everytime my family and I go somewhere and we're listening to the station, there's at least one song my kids (ages 7 and 5) will sing along with. My favorites are when they sing along with songs that have lyrics that may not necessarily be something a 7 and 5 year should sing, but there's something funny and innocent about a kid singing along to Rihanna's "S&M". I figure as long as my wife or I don't make a big deal about it, they'll never know, just let them have their fun.

Five People Play One Guitar And Cover of Gotye's 'Somebody That I Used To Know'

Melissa Awesome — Tue, 24 Apr 2012 21:26:46 +0000

Yeah, you read that right. Walk Off The Earth is a band from just outside Toronto Canada. What sets them apart from every other person on Youtube covering Gotye is that there's five people in this video playing one guitar. I could explain this to you, but it would be way too long and drawn out, you should just watch the video and see for yourself!

The Shields Brothers Cover Gotye 'Somebody That I Used To Know' [VIDEO]

Kat Mykals — Tue, 17 Apr 2012 13:14:58 +0000

It seems that Gotye’s Somebody That I Used To Know is THE song to cover right now. We’ve seen it on American Idol, The Voice, and Glee. And now, friends of The Rob’s Radio Show, The Shields Brothers have covered it too. The really great thing about this cover is that it’s very different from [...]

Glee Performs Gotye's Somebody That I Use To Know [VIDEO]

Kat Mykals — Wed, 11 Apr 2012 11:30:09 +0000

The first time that I heard Gotye's Somebody That I Use To Know, I had run across it as a viral video of 5 people playing one guitar, and singing. Although it was a cover of s song that I had never heard (at the time... Goty-who?), I was drawn not only to the "stupid human trick" of it all, but also to the song itself.

The Voice's Lindsey Pavao Performs Somebody That I Used to Know [VIDEO]

The Rob — Thu, 05 Apr 2012 12:34:58 +0000

Earlier in the week, while we reviewing The Voice with the Shields Brothers, The Rob mentioned that his favorite performance of the night was a really unique performance from Lindsay Pavao singing Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used to Know.” If you missed it, here is the performance from Monday night’s The Voice on NBC.

Glee Covers Gotye's 'Somebody That I Used To Know'

Melissa Awesome — Thu, 05 Apr 2012 06:20:39 +0000

Now I'll be honest, I never really got into the whole Glee thing. I think because sometimes their covers make me mad (I'm sorry, I mean I'll give them their credit a lot of the covers they do are incredible, but you just can't take on Queen's 'Bohemian Rhapsody' no matter who you are) haha But now that we've got that out of the way, Glee's Darren Criss, and Matt Bomer do a phenomenal job on Gotye's 'Somebody That I used to Know' And you've gotta check out the video below!
