Great cover. The Beatles (IMO) are credited for their writing capabilities more than their abillity to play their instruments, or sing. I can't stand their vocals, and the simple little lead line in this video is probably the absolute most difficult thing anyone in the beatles would/could ever learn to play.
@Ztys89 What an ignorant statement. The Beatles had a fuckton of great guitar solos that show off their respective talents, let alone all the other sometimes "weird" instruments they played. Paul McCartney alone shits all over The Gaslight Anthem in terms of musical proficiency. Listen to his solo on "Taxman" or his lead vocals on "Oh! Darling" - that's some mighty good guitar playing and singing right there.
Sorry you took my comment to the butt. I've played guitar the past 10 years, and that solo in Taxman takes very little skill. I like their music, and their adoration in the hearts of fans is well deserved, but in terms of the difficulty of their instrumental works...it's child's play.
@Ztys89 and that's the beauty of it, the beatles wrote music infinitely better than any of us ever will, and they didn't even have to make it difficult to make it great...
@Ztys89 The Beatles were know for their singing talent. I agree that most of their songs wouldn't give pros any problems, but "childs play" is a ridiculous thing to say. Anyone with 10 years or more of experience should know how long it takes until you can actually sit down and play most any song you want, especially if you're self taught. It takes a long time. Even once you have 2-3 years of experience (assuming you didn't spend every waking moment playing) you still aren't that good.
@IanGPx2 If you're listening to this and concerning yourself with whether his voice goes flat than you're missing the point. Tryouts for American Idol are on the next page. Just click and be gone.
Excellent cover, perfect vocals, total guitar symphony, and excellent sound. I dare to say a change of arrangement in this duo. Bridge high on the second guitar, creating a more dynamic duet, (High-String effect) I'am sending out our 1970's cover to this soon, otherwise check out out REO Speedwagon cover, "Riding the storm out cover shadowfax 1980" I'll send our "Junky lead version" of "Come Together" when I work out the visuals....
Murdered yet again another classic bunch a bum's and ya see comments saying its better than the beatles thats not possible your tone deaf if ya think so
@shaggy78922 Really? It's not even a bad cover. I love The Beatles but I really hate how some people think they are the best and all their songs have to remain untouched. It's just a cover, get over yourself.
i truly never thought a band could do a better job covering the beatles than the beatles themselves!!! fucking bad ass band my favorite band ever even if nobody where i live knows who this band even is
I always says "The original is the best" BUT out of all the crappie covers I've heard-This is the ONLY cover of Come Together that I've heard that sounds GREAT & deserves RESPECT-GREAT job!
@kardzfn21 if you love his voice (and have a 8track) get his vinyl with chuck ragan. his voice is insane. especially on the 8 track. it's really worth tenfold what i paid.
theres no name or release date yet, but when i saw them in october they said a new album would drop this year. last time i checked Brian was writing. SO PUMPED!
@CoheedHero i don't know, but his voice is always like that. other people sing rougher too (jay northington, churck ragan, dave grohl). i think they do it on purpose, but i would imagine they sacrafice their vocal cords doing it.
Some people may be ignorant, but it is not just kids and you cannont blame them. At the time this music came out people of older ages found it druggy and stupid just like the music now of days. I am not saying they're equal, but kids know what they're told, what is in - they're kids, they're supposed to be ignorant and have fun in life with the latest gadgets and culture and music and clothing (Record players, hippies, The Beatles, Bell Bottoms, Drugs, w/e).
@brickstroker Well, I'm 13, and think both The Beatles and Gaslight Anthem are great bands. Kids get a bad perception these days- we don't all take drugs and lose our virginity before it's legal. It's good to see that some people realise that :)
The Beatles didn't actually think there was 8 days in a week. It's hyperbole. As in, "I love you so much, I love you more than is logically possible". Like when an athlete says they're going to give 110% or someone says they've been working 25 hours a day.
I always loved how Gaslight always had such simple songs technically. The vocals and lyrics were always what stood out. They remind me of an older type of band, and it's just amazing.
The Gaslight Anthem are heavily influenced by punk music. Punk isn't about high technicality and difficult guitar work, it's the exact opposite. If its no the type of music you like then so be it, but you're not going to stop anyone of liking this band. This bands is amazing!
AlainBradette. I just wanted to inform you that you're an idiot. And an arrogant asshole. All in one shit fucking douchebag package. Are you even aware of the level of douchebaggery that you have achieved by leaving that comment? For one, you're probably 12 and think that you shred because you can cover iron man. I hate your kind. And FYI.. potential? They're already a signed band and are pretty popular. So eat my shit kthanx.
lol if you criticize Gaslight Anthem you are automatically wrong apparently. Wanna know how to play like Gaslight Anthem? Learn four chords and use a slightly different progression for each song. Ta-da!
yeah do u have a clue about music, its music its not all about guitar, tbh these guys Dont miss a beat on the guitar they are amazing, your sitting there dissing this music, can you sing as extraordinary as he does? i dont care, you might be an amazing shredder on a guitar, but these guys have tellent, they are just amazing musicians so think when u listen to Music that its Music not gutaring. if you want to listen to guitaring go satch it up or something but this isnt what this music is about
