New band member announcement when

Once the drums are removed , it really shows how INSANE their drummer is. The drummer wrote such a perfect part as not to overwhelm the song, rather blend right in.

This is amazing… never fails to amaze me the skill within Polyphia

Such a deep dive into little intricacies that went unnoticed and have come forward. And that piano is Sick. And i cant even play human.

That was awesome. They just keep giving us fans these little love letters. 😍 Much respect and love from Flint, Michigan!!

Okay so KZread, you know I like Polyphia, I've listened to playing god like 50 times, I've even watched tonnes of covers by other people... yet you never in the last YEAR thought to show me the OFFICIAL acoustic cover that is on the actual official Polyphia channel? What kind of stupid algorithm do you have running there?

the paino parts sound gorgeous

This is so different than the original with what I'm presuming is an upright bass instead of an electric bass + effects. I love both! This doesn't drop as hard but allows more detail to be hard. Well done!

loving these different renditions. Acoustic and beat versions are thumbs up! Keep them coming boys!

This version of Playing God is amazing and the artwork is so beautiful! I can't wait for the album 🖤🔥

I woke up in the middle of the night because of a lightning storm, decided to hop onto yt for some reason and found this compilation had been uploaded less than 5 minutes prior to that (I've been playing the 3 tracks on repeat ever since). Even god knows what's up, lmao

This is insane, please make an acoustic album😭🙏🏻

I ABSOLUTElY love this version of the song but I really wish the piano was louder because it's such a beautiful addition to this song. It would sparkle more imo. But still what an amazing rendition! ♥♥

Love the piano This just might be my favorite Polyphia Track

went to the chicago show and it was a sick loved the interaction they gave the crowd cant wait to go on another future tour.

Beautiful, god tier

Three gifts in the form of uploads from Polyphia. It’s a good day.

What I needed, thanks a lot

The mix, the master is a masterpiece! Sounds go out on my monitors like crystals

Piano makes a huge difference!!! 🔥 🔥

Awesome! The piano is a masterpiece with the guitar

New polyphia slaps Great cover, you guys have potential. Thanks for the great show in New York! Flawless playing

the piano is lit🔥

Ana-Log-cabin-syrup-simmered in sol Estas of def-thomes echos. The taste is full; The sound profound.

Such a beautiful piece

This is my favorite version! As a recent music discovery for me I am late to the game but OMFG this is brilliant!! I NEVER say this but, I can listen to this on loop, ALL DAMN DAY!! It sticks in my head, and I smile!

Polyphia being Epic as usual. Keep being amazing, nothing but good things are in your futures. \m/\m/

Very brilliant and fresh stuff, love it, we need more music like this :)

Love both, but the beauty details really shine. Love the visual. Oh yes reminded me of Paco, Al and John on steroids. Elegant gypsy influenced but top shelf 30 years later. Innovative guitar techniques with very tasty chords with virtuosic flares. Spiced with piano runs and voicings adding to the heavenly image.

i was on my spotify when polyphia G.O.A.T played through my random songs. i grabbed my phone immediately to click favorites so i can search up this band soon as i get home from work. Ive been a fan ever since i discovered polyphia. you guys are going to be big and its happening already. :)

Absolutely amazing.

This is beautiful

Its brings me happy sadness and joyful tears. Truly amazing.

How is this even better....I love it so much.

This is the most peaceful violence I’ve ever encountered.

Can't wait for the instrumental version!

The drums and bass of this song 🤩

This is AMAZING!

Wee want more of this, this polyphia's acoustic version is the best !!!!!

Love the piano

Wow!!!! Giving me goosebumps. Amazing! You guys keep pushing the boundaries. And I thought the original was amazing. Tim, how the hell do you continually compose such unique sounds with incredible technique? Built different much!!! And as a band, everyone is so technically sound and tight....Melting again!!!!

Love it ☺️

Thanks for the 2 extra songs at the end if the chicago concert!

Omg I like this version the best. The piano 😍😍😍

Doesn’t matter how many times I hear this track I always have one thought… Tim Henson was made in a lab he’s that good

ok but somehow, literally everything about this video is beautiful

The perfect combination of beauty and technicality.

This is the most beautiful sounding thing I’ve heard

Okay well now I need to learn the piano part 😍

This is fire if you wear headphones while listening

I just can’t wait for the album and this song is definitely bomb. 😭

Sounds majestic, amazing

I honestly think this version is my all time favorite

Visuals are so mesmerizing

Love it! I was imagining an orchestra

didn’t know i needed this

i really love this song and its art, very encouraging

Lol i was waiting for the drop but i suddenly forgot it's the acoustic version😆😆 And btw the piano is so fuxkin awsm

ooooo i like this version too. nice work, y'all!
