[sharapova4eva]

Oh wow wow! What a beautiful cover! You have a really great voice, I really enjoyed this. Why this doesn't have more views I will never know! :(

[tjd2142]

awesome rendition! any way you can post a piano tutorial?

[billeyrock]

Thanks for the comment tjd2142..... I don't know exactly what I played to post a tutorial. When I play piano I think in chords not specific notes and just let my fingers go where it sounds good. Thanks again :)

[kfals]

Very beautiful rendition. This is why I love youtube: finding unreal talent out there that can do wonders on a great song with just some ivory and a nice voice. Keep it up! 5 stars

[elisaflisalisa]

This was really good. Thank you so much! :)

[itsmeamyann]

ur amazing.. nice tattoo by the way...

[billeyrock]

Thanks :) you can't see the whole tattoo, but it's a treble cleff with a banner around it.....the banner says "Music is What Feelings Sound Like"............it's a little saying I like.....it's also on my youtube home page banner :)

Thanks again and I'll see what I can do about the message you sent me :)

Cheers!

[mikaella63]

you amaze me.

[abc1237693]

do you think you could tell me the chords?

great job

[billeyrock]

Sure..this version is in "G" where as the original is in "C".....here are the chords for my piano version.....

Verses: G G/B C

Chorus: Em G C

Cheers :)

[hgraxirena]

my friend...this is GREAT! I was doing this song in C, then I went down to B and now to G and its so much mellow and easy. Gonna do this tomorrow night with my band. What you do for the reverb? Any tips would be greatly appreciate it.

[billeyrock]

Thanks for watching :) I decided to drop it to G for this video because it does have that more mellow feel for a piano version. When I play it with my band we do it in C....just like the original....with the full band (which I play guitar) it sounds better in my higher register.

As for reverb...I just use a simple hall reverb with a little bit of compression. This vid was recorded into a microphone which is just off camera...it was a condenser mic....which helps a lot.

[elenadhooge]

I love it!

[jodyb29]

As I searched for "I'd come for you, Nickelback" today I gave your video a listen... I loved it! So I started listening to all of your songs, when I found this one it really touched me... I sat here crying, thinking of my struggles (single parent, full time student) I wanted you to know that you are really amazing, so talented! Your music is beautiful :)

[billeyrock]

Thanks for the kind words. My heart truly goes out to you and I truly hope you find peace in your life. This may sound cheezy, but I'm a believer that music does heal the soul. I see from your profile that your Canadian. That means you must be a great person.

Cheers and God Bless :)

[jodyb29]

Thank you :) Take care... and yes Canadians are fab!

[SJBuckley92]

this is absolutely amazing, you've really got a fantastic voice! the best thing about you is your song choices every song you upload is really good :) please could you do a version of 3 Doors Down - Here Without You, thanks =]

[matthewjordanmusic]

Thanks for the comment buddy! I subscribed to your channel :)

Anyway, really like your take on this song. You've got an awesome voice! Keep it up and I'll check out more of your stuff later.

[Kmouse82]

I love that you changed it up and played the piano a little. By the time you show all your instrument talents you will be able to do a full show!

Sounded amazing and I love the hat.

[billeyrock]

Thanks Kmouse.....

I decided on the hat because in my last video I had several comments about my hair :)

[Kmouse82]

Your hair?! That's just crazy.

[billeyrock]

Yeah....that's what they were saying !!

Funny.....

[angelsworking]

Shayne, thanks so much for doing this for me. You are an awesome person. This slower version is so sweet and touching. I watched the original video, by the original artist. I did not really like it. But your remake is beautiful. Thanks again, Debbie
