Just to let everyone know that Faux Pas is actually in Gotye's band so the guy obviously has talent. He's trying to do something different with the song and i think it should be appreciated. Give the dude some props.

I appreciate this for being completely different to any other version of the song I've heard. Originality shouldn't be so hated.

The like to dislike ratio: perfectly balanced; as all things should be.

There are clearly 2 sides of audience. One modern one classical. 2 years later still 1k from each side. Balanced

This aged well

Definitely really good as a stand-alone remix. When compared to the original, obviously it's extremely different. This is more so based on sampling than actually covering the song. Come on, guys. Gotye posted it here for a reason.

Can we just take a second to appreciate how amazing this remix is?

best remix i've ever heard!

It's different in a good way. NOW I HAVE TWO SONGS TO LOVE, THANKS GOTYE AND FAUX PAS!

this song reminds me so much of Chicago house music from the 80s and 90s

Another excellent description of what it reminds me of. Well said. Ty 😉👍

It gives the feeling of old American "chill techno" meets the "cha-cha-cha" genre of Cuban music. Okay. Okay. This is my official second favorite remix of the original version of this song. Of course, the original is still my favorite. 😉 Tysm, Gotye. 🤗🤩

My first reaction was to hate it, but I gave it a chance, and it's a very good remix. completely different, but very good.

Why does this have so many dislikes!? Honestly, amazing remix.

For me, as I'm not a listener to remixes in general, this is awesome. It's minimalistic and totally changing the feeling of that song. It's less remix more a new born song.

Beautiful!!

Aaah no!!! I didn't even make it a minute into this!! The original is SOOOOOOOOO good don't change it!!!

Really love this song. Any concerts?

Remixs are as good as the song especially when they have a lot of details like this one!

This is gooood bro !

This is Gotye's song! It's called the Faux pas remix for a reason. Faux pas "is a violation of accepted social norms" according to wikipedia. He's done this on purpose people.

Well i don't like it but some people do.

everything about Gotye is...AWESOME!

i walked all around campus today singing in my head SOMEBA! du du du du du

It's an interesting take - I like it

when the masterpiece is done it's OK to experiment and make some versions:-) sounds way different but still interesting. p.s. and congratulations for double #1 in ARIA charts this week!

the beginning reminds me of the skins theme song lol. i love this!!!

i love the original killed with a rusty knife with this one

The Best out there.

first minute or so i'm not really into, but after that i can really get into it. starting at 1:13 the beat is solid

Thank You for Support Gotye 👍

Cool remix

Enjoyed. Approved.

awesome

Everyone who hates this song and who made it, check who made it! Gotye! So shut yo mouth! Continue making epic videos Gotye!

I like this a lot more than the actual song.

Damn. I thought after the first bit some very loud, almost dubstep WAH WAH WEEEEEEE WEEEEEE WEEERBFERJBGFJERIBF would happen. xD This is a quite chilled remix.

This is amazing! y you disliked this?

I love the beat but mixing it with this song makes it sounds disjointed.

Killer remix... the original's pretty nice, really like this too.

Cool. Funky. Dark. Like it.

Wow, guys. It really isn't that bad. It's quite good actually.

i find it funny how people are like "why did you ruin a good song you should die" and all this crap when its actually on gotye's album

Go to Google and type in "Faux Pas" Read the description you find... you understand now??

damn i was wondering where they got the acapella from-duh uploaded by gotye music

It is supposed to be this way! To show how much better songs like STIUTN is so much better than all the pop and rap out there.

this version dope

Amazing, I can’t believe how there are people in this world who have the incredible talent and ear for music that they can take an amazing song and turn it into something that is painful to listen too. EPIC FAIL

Heh, Faux Pas is the name of the producer who did this remix. He has a couple of albums and is the keyboardist in the Gotye live band.

I, I support you :D

Some song can't be remix. Original "Somebody used to know" is THE best.

Esta musica tem uma letra muito interessante

@iamfauxpas The original has just become such a big hit that everyone is being precious about it. It doesn't matter how good of a remix it is, people are still going to have a cry about it. Don't be disheartened by narrow minded people.

Look how they massacred my boy....

Nah, not for me...

Everybody is defending the song and explaining "Faux Pas" but I don't see any comments sounding like they don't like it and don't know what "faux pas" means... WHO ARE YOU PEOPLE TALKING TO?

So cooooooooool

I was about to fight for this but I realized that nothing I say is going to change anyones mind

I love the original so much, I naturally almost flagged this as inappropriate. The irony is lost on me, I wanted a tune to tap my feet to.

Omg I just wish I could sit down with guy and probe his mind, he's a genius!

Esta musica e muito

Yes a kind of sadness is what I’ve lived with all my life. 😢

This is one of those songs where if you don't like the original you'll like the remix and vice-versa. I'm in the former camp. I don't see why people are ragin' so hard

IKR

WTF?! Ready is a Somebody That I Used To Know?

I like the effects after 1:05

@effyblaine Yes it can. It's Gotye's song, gotye does what gotye wants

@JackoPlane lol the stupidest complaint some one can make about a remix is to say it's not "the same" in some way. It's not suppose to feel or sound the same or whatever, if it did, what would even be the point of remixing it? I like it, it's just a cool song that features samples from another cool song.

For the first 23 secs, I thought it was interesting. Between :24 and :59, I listened only out of curiosity. However, starting at 1:00, IT GETS REALLY GOOD. Kind of reminds me of The Art of Noise and Enigma when they first came out. Give this remix a chance!!

Okay thanks! :)

Why didn't you upload 4frnts remix?

What is the meaning of faux pas ??

Good

cool :)

not that fond of it...but hey, when you're song is remixed, it usually means people like it a lot, so it's a compliment :-)

somebody I used to know by Walk Off The Earth. Check it out. KZread won't let me post the link

I think alot of people in here don't know what Faux Pas means.

@iamfauxpas I liked it dawg - thanks.

@koalajs I didn't mean to insult the original version, that one is part of my daily breakfast, lunch, and/or diner ;-). My comment was only meant for this uhm....oh yes, 'remix' is the word.

i know what faux pas means, and i also guessed that's why he name this remix as such. but faux pas also means "a social blunder, and/or also a tactless act." all i'm saying is that the remix name does not necessarily have anything to do with the song. oh and sorry i'm not as high a level as your kind. geez

Now this is an angsty piece of bollocs if ever i saw one *_•

@GemaMurphy Try listening to to the original. This is the Faux Pas remix.

Somebody... Together? Also you should have named it "Certain Kind of Sadness."

Very special, but good.

Seems very SBTRKT inspired :]

There should only ever be one set of brackets after a songs title as a general rule.

I don't know why this song is very beautify

I dig it but I was a bit more "breaky" than I normally like. That cushioned bass is nice, but I could've been happier with a bit more straight 4X4... but don't listen to me keep doing good stuff. More + than - for sure. thumbs up.

it's not that bad i like the original better, but i'd still download this too

I was here

Why all the dislikes I mean the regular song is better but it wasn't bad

i wuv you gotye! wooooooo waaaaaaaa

Relax, it's the faux pas remix. He did it on purpose, it's the point of it.

have you listened to this version?

It was decent but the original will still be my favourite song EVER!

LOL, When started the song, I thought it was the Zangief's Theme of Street Fighter xP

Yes Sombody I Me use to know!!!!

There is a fine line between enhancing something and defacing it.

The word you are looking for is 'shit' :3

is a good remix too many haters -.-*

hmm thats why its on Gotyes album

this song could have been good but now it's just... bad

wtf they neutered the damn song in this remix
