“This is another great song from a great new band (as far as I know). I can't believe it's still free for now...”

“Living proof that you can, indeed, get more than you pay for. Great sound, great energy, and great feeling of "I really LIKE this stuff".”

“indie piano combined with a delicious voice to recreate Crazy. The vocal harmonies, cello, and tom-heavy drumming create the necessary textures to make this song sweet!”

“An excellent cover. The strings and sparse arrangement allow the underlying strain of being "Crazy," soulfully ;understated in the original version to come to the surface. The only drawback is the talking at the end (this is part of a live recording).”

“one of the better covers i've heard of this song -- the strings add a nice touch that you don't hear very often in indie rock these days”

“You just wait. You just wait for that bass to kick in. You thought it was going good, with the piano, and all. A beautiful rendition of a previously "kinda harsh" debut. But after the rock of the bass line sets in, about halfway through, you get strings. Not only do we have violins, but we have cellos. And vibrato. And REALLY making these instruments sing. All along, accompanied by bittersweet soulful lyrics, with confidence bursting from behind his teeth. It was good. :)”

“Wakey! Wakey! is so awesome, I hope more people get it for free... And then I hope everyone realizes that the crazy cool sounds are worth inviting more people to Amie street in order to get more credit to buy this!!!”
