Eels - Beautiful Freak (Cover by Eelke)

Eels - Beautiful Freak - Acoustic cover by Eelke
I post new videos every Thursday and Sunday.

My name is Eelke. I'm a singer, songwriter and musician from The Netherlands. I play (acoustic) covers and my own original songs. Check out my videos and let me know what you think!

I recorded an acoustic cover of the title-track for one of my favourite albums from my childhood. Beautiful Freak by Eels, from 1996. I was 8 years old when it came out and it really sparked my imagination. Starting with the artwork, followed by the overal sound of the record. It's one of those albums that I can still listen to beginning to end without having to skip a track. Hope you like it!

Lyrics

You're such a beautiful freak
I wish there were more just like you
You're not like
All of the others

But that is why I love you
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak
That is why I love you
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak

Some people say
You have a problem
But that problem
Lies only with them
Just 'cause you are not like
The others

That is why I love you
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak
That is why I love you
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak

Too good for this world
But I hope you will stay
And I'll be there to see
That you don't fade away

You're such a beautiful freak
I bet you are flying inside
Dart down and then go for cover

You know that I
I love you
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak
Beautiful freak

No tienes idea cuánto amo está canción, gracias. Eres literal el único cover que encontré, es lindo encontrar a alguien al que también le guste este tipo de música.

Hé Eelke (20 jaar geleden) heb je geen normale muziek ;). (Nu) Lekker nummertje ;)

Thanks. Your taste in music is different than mine so your videos expose me to a lot of songs I’ve never heard before. I check the original artists version and I find I like yours better. Keep it up.
