@yamaha4888 , well I don''t know if you noticed but every guitar sound here is made by the two other guitarrists back there, and he''s only doing figures that doesn''t sound nearly at all...
he''s an OK singer though, being live in character and all...it''s funny as hell to see him, but I can''t hear his guitar nowhere......
@yamaha4888 If you watch the commentary, the reason they hired him for this role was because of his musical talent. He can play guitar, drums, piano, and he's been singing for years. You can see in Chicago and step-brothers his other talents. He's definitely very talented.
What an immense well of talent he has! This song would've been a hit if it had been written by Cash or somebody. Many professional singers can't perform this good live. Keep walking hard John C. Rielly!
So they "acted" playing the instruments as well, did they? I mean, watching the film you can see that they are playing the right parts so I just don't understand why they didn't play the gigs too, would save the other guys trouble learning the songs.
John has been playing for years. He actually wrote that song for the movie. The other songs were wrote by numerous people. If you get a chance you should watch the movie & grab the full performances in the special features section as well. All the songs are great.
it is someone elses voice, if u check the credits u'll see its not him, but they chose someone with a voice similar to him, just so that the performence will be at its best
Doesn't he look like a fucking Elvis? I think he does big time !

You can tell he is singing this song. The dvd's special features has a focus on the songwriting and his singing.
