  • I did not expect a voice like that to come out of you. But man, you NAILED it.

  • Wowww you are rlly good!

  • chords please?!?!?!?!

  • i would have "epic at 1:40" down as "a tad over-indulgent at 1:40"... a bit x-factor at that point, but very nicely done over all. i've been simon cowell... goodnight.

  • You have a great voice, and you played the acoustics very well!!!

  • awesome cover man! the strumming and your voice are amazing, keep it up for sure.

  • Chords sir?

  • Absolutely flawless! I really like how you seem to enjoy playing the music you do.. The way you get into the piece is amazing! It's something many actual big hit artists lack. Keep doing what you are doing! Best of luck to you!

  • Alex, everything I here from you I love. I don't play guitar & I can't sing to save my life but I don't need to to see the talent you have. I hope you get what you are looking for from what you do, you deserve it.

  • you're a fantastic guitarist.

    you inspire me.

  • this is great! i love your take on it. especially the voice.

  • This is great. You kind of sound like BNL :)

  • i wanna kick you in the balls. haha, i dont know why.

  • wow douche. You couldnt even kick the shit out of anybody. Come say that to my face bitch.

  • hahahahha! ex-army!! They kicked you out since your a pussy and were scared, you shouldnt have even tried the army. And martial arts wont help you any, martial arts only help people with balls to do anything. Your obviously a wuss if you left the army? your a coward.

  • If you were in martial arts you wouldn't be a douchebag. Martial arts teach self-control.

  • true,

    hmm, seems like youre the real faggot

    ex-army, who the fuck says ex-army you fucking cunt

    its called veteran bitch, bet you never saw any action you fuckin pussy,

  • This is awesome!

  • i love this, its like bit of a mix of the original by the postal service and a little bit of iron wines cover.

  • beautiful i lovelovelovelovelove your voice!

  • Yes this one was very great :)

  • i just love it!

    the song itself is my favourite as well

    but your cover is great..

    i'd love to play it like you do!

    like someone said down there..

    please make a tutorial for it!! :)

  • Beautiful.

    Better than my version. Haha.

    if you get a minute, check out my version :)

  • sounds good man! keep it up, sounds really like blues traveler to me! great job

  • GO BOY!

  • i wouldn't think that it was possible to a good cover of the postal service, but this is really good

  • this is one of the best covers for this song i have ever heard! amazing!

  • i agree for sure, best cover :)

  • you did this song amazingly!

    my favorite version so far!

    pleeeaasseeeee make a tutorial for it!!

    ???

  • :]

    i like it

  • Best cover (postal service version) so far!

  • i LOVE this song. Yet this made it better. Thank you SOOOOOOOOOO much.

  • dude, you rock, and i need those chords, lol

  • I'd estimate the Capo on the 6th fret - correct me if I'm wrong! The Verse is G D Am C G Bm7 Am C? And G D C G for the Chorus, plus some nice variations you'll have to figure out by yourself. Neat strumming by the way!

  • this is great, your voice sounds kind of like the guy from Bare Naked Ladies

  • get it recorded mate

  • wow dude, you have a ton of talent. I play a pretty mean rendition of this song but I have to say this is absolutely amazing. major props.

  • Can I get the chords for your version? I've tried to listen to it by ear, but I'm hearing more than just simple major and minor chords. If you could post them that would be great!

  • You remind me of the Barenaked Ladies if they covered this song! Great job man!

  • It's definitely BNL!!!

  • this is so amazing .

    one of the best covers ive heard in ages . (:

  • I really enjoyed this, which is strange, because I wouldn't think I would. You have quite a lot of control over your vocals, which is impressive... I will now check out your other videos, good job Alex!! (I guess that's your name)

    Cheers,

    Paul (singer/songwriter (haha!) from England)

  • Sounds like John Popper. Even has a Blues Trav feel. Very Good.

  • Impressive! Your voice is awesome dude.

  • Im impressed. This actually sounds good, and you got a beautiful voice. I would actually pay to see you perform live, so if you ever come to Sweden be sure to say so. ;)

  • nice job

  • YOU PWND that song, nice job mate.

  • Even after watching about 2 million of these Such Great Heights videos, but in my opinion, your's is still, by far, the best.

  • psh hardly. watch the one with the brown kid on the viola. it pwns this one easily. This one is just kinda whatever.

  • join the x factor!

  • btw what are the chords for this? if it's REAAAALLY hard, you don't have to tell me :P x

  • wow! makes me smile :D i must admit, i almost didn't click on this but wow! so good :D x

  • im sittin here at home, sulking bc i just got my wisdom teeth pulled out, but you put a smile on my face with this song.

    Thanks!!!!!!!

  • Love your smile :D Everyone should be this happy, wheter they are singing or not :D Great cover! unique voice.

  • That's right good!

    Lyrics aren't quite right, but it doesn't matter, great stuff!

    xx

  • oh my god... that voice... it's like so unique. you should totally start your own band... i can see as a big name, you know like Life Taxi for Ugly or something... haha, but it's awesome man

    great job!

  • Great version dude ;)

  • You are Inf*&kingcredible. true story. put this song up on your myspace.

  • this is pretty.

    nice voice.

  • Another cover that to me sounds alot better then the original. Awesome.

  • You are just the worst kind of person imaginable.

    The stupidest thing about your comment is your assumption that this man is the shit of society, what exactly are you basing this on? You cretin.

    Second, "acting out like a complete asshole"? How exactly? By posting a video of a cover of a song that he did? Which by the way, nobody is forcing you to watch.

    Nobody wants your bullshit opinion, take your prepubescent whining to a place where some like-minded moron might agree with you.

  • That should be "by posting a cover of a song" sorry.

    And by the way, I love this video, and the way you've done it, it keeps the tempo of The Postal Service but also the acoustic sound of Iron And Wine.

    Very good job, your voice fits it perfectly also.

  • you think this is boring? this is fucking good music. your vids, though, are shit and lame as hell just like you. get a life, fuckface.

  • Nice job!:p you sing very well

  • :]

    amazing.
