[iamthemodest]

Modest Mouse is my favorite band. Definitely. I love this cover dude. It makes my eeears smile. I'm not sure if anybody said it before but your voice reminds me of Gary Lightbody of Snow Patrol. I'll definitely have to learn this on the banjo. Kudos dude.

Why aren't you on my radio????? and my tv????? and everywhere else????? I swear i'm unquiting guitar. You are proof that being patient and practicing is sooooo worth it in the end. hope i get half as good as you.......

[TheAbtinAnvari]

If I did not hear this, I would not have started playing guitar again,

which got me to love music more

which inspired me to make my own music.

which led to me getting a call last week saying that THE Baby bash may have my album, and i might be working with him. Im still not amazing with guitar, but im okay. i play the mandolin now to, Every day is better now with music, i have better relationships with everyone and im generally more happy.

thank you.

[minimalgrooming]

[ELH255]

You're really good man keep it up !

[chasjens]

Your voice is amazeballs, but you should really clean up around the house.

[MrJuggernautStudios]

You need to be a band... I mean, I was like "Pff another bad cover of a song? Whatevs" *Click* *Waits* *:OOOOOOOOO*

[eatin505]

Dude I been listening to this cover ever sense you put it up and I can't listen to other float on covers cuse you blow them out of the park. Keep doing modest mouse covers man.

[MrSpacley103]

My phone really did viberate!! lol

[AcousticHustler]

Dude, you are like my fucking hero. You have the perfect acoustic voice, and you play so well. Amazing cover.

[meghanroxx]

[king0stuffz]

1:35 the solo for guitar 1 was pretty off but I know you were playing rhythm so wutevz

[IMwGIxGaming]

[X3vcpX]

[JuliaBellaShow]

I love how you just start luaghing randomly. Nice.

[Stea1thPrawn]

@JuliaBellaShow

He laughed cause he made a boo boo. I think it adds to the cover, personally.

[watchtheflash]

ahh..one of the very few great covers of this song. well done:)

[asub3292]

i dont know if im more jealous of your voice, or your beard haha

im working on both with marginal success :P

[coldfood10]

you play it differently than i do, but you're awesome man, great guitar playing and awesome vocals!

[PAA1992]

Your voice would be good for songs by Five for Fighting

[steppsteph]

I can't believe this hasn't gotten more views.

[DannySan626]

LOL Random Ass Laugh XD

[northernman2319]

there are some other covers of this song on youtube but yours is probably the best. good work lad. how do you you play the solo parts? or if you know of a link that would be awesome. additionally, your voice parallels dave matthews voice. you should also try to fool around with some of his stuff.

[Rashy3000]

I just love that laugh xD

[ScrubbyJJ]

man ur awsome

[graffbx]

thumbs up if this made u shake ur butt n you're a guy looooool

[alagiglia29]

Seriously just listening to this once makes my whole day seem so much better. I keep coming back to this video over and over! You are amazing man. Keep at it!

[jjwenzie1]

29 peoples raft popped so they cant go and float on any further.

[JW4BS]

That laugh you did made the song so much better.

[farmer5123]

I love the original, and I love this. I didn't think that it was possible to cover something as perfect as Modest Mouse, but you did a very good job.

[goalieman420]

Stifler!!!

[quangofexeter10]

not even 1 million. how does youtube work?

[kingdktgrv]

Dude this rocks!!!!

[TheSweatBand]

Check our cover please.

[sammymcsamsonsam]

I swear I have contributed to half of the views. I prefer this then the original. Please record and put on iTunes!

[sr200179]

okay WHY aren't you famous yet! you my dear rock!!!

[MonkeyMCmacmac]

power to your weird voice man  you rock

[wushock1991]

a request, save tonight, eagle eye cherry. would much appreciate

[alagiglia29]

This is the best cover I have heard so far! It's almost like James Blunt meets Modest Mouse, except this guy is way better. Great work! Keep it up man!

[bosland321]

I think it better than original <3

:D

[lamariaesmumala]

An angel singing, ^_^ i like very much.

[EthanStrickland]

Yeah, it was alright. But you're playing it wrong!

[SxyBeast767]

ok be honest. did any expect his voice to be that soothing and inspirational! lol

[mrdoublev691]

wow holy crap didnt expect that! <3



[firesandflames123]

amazing voice

[greedbrigand]

Yeah man. you need to find a way to get the audio off this vid and convert it into mp3 format. and upload it somewhere..

And who the heck would thumbs down this? Randomnesss

[yaldonwatcher]

@greedbrigand There ya go bud! This site is great works with any vid... just copy and paste the HTML into the bar there and you can download the mp3 cheers!

[Mari2890]

can you put this song on itunes of you singing it! I really dig it! =)

[lawlzzatsarah]

AMAZING COVERR

[Relax4aDay]

I love the way he sings "We'll all float on" and that he recovers from laughing. Great cover man keep it up

[ThirteenPeeps]

Aren't you supposed to capo at fret 5 or 6?

[MikolaJ0wNs23]

Pretty gnarly dude

[Soronga123]

Exelent cover :D

[M3iscool]

This is about the 5th time I've seen this. I hate to say it but it might be close to matching the skill and quality of the original. Its pretty much the best cover for this song, by a landslide.

[probstanator]

new favorite cover of any song!!

[l3yanki]

unbelievable singing. very well done.

[heartx3jess]

I'm in love with your voice. Great job :)

[SaladGremlins]

I love the classical guitar :)

[doragzzzz]

this is TIT'S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[soonerxii]

holy crap this guy is good...nice that you worked in the riffs to the guitar part as well

[kke2star]

skillz!

[Omircoid]

c'est impressionnant

[LuckyLutgen]

Great work man. This video has been on my favorites for a while now. I like your version better than the actually band. I learned the guitar line from watching this video too, so thanks.

[dinkydodgem93]

this is stoning tune..

[insanelyxhyper00]

This was just absolutely amazing !

[AskingAA]

thumbs up if you thought your phone vibrated

[danielhassixstrings]

@AskingAA @ 0:12 it did vibrate, but i'd already started the song...

[kingdomheartsheart]

YOU ARE FUCKING AWESOME!!!!!!!! LOVE IT!!!!!

[unvme601]

i have a question for everyone.... am i musically retarded if i cant strum this song and sing it at the same time...? ive been playing for like a year and working on this song like a week and a half and i still cant maintain the same strumming pattern while singing.... i dont have this problem on most songs but sometimes its just so hard....? for real or is there something i can do so that i can sign and strum this shit out?

[VirginWithAProblem]

Wow. Hey man, great job. And I think my favorite part is actually where you screw up the lyrics at the end. Made it more...yours? I like that you didn't try to sing it like Isaac Brock, just made it your own. Very nice cover.

[crossmyheart1996]

please, dear god, take this man and replace justin bieber, lady gaga, miley cyrus, kesha... etc with him! pllease!

[bustedballbags]

jesus some voice

[iloveBNs]

wow. unbelieavable voice. :)

[eswooshLTD]

wow! brilliant! keep up the good work!

[looneyrz]

i definitely think u should record some of ur songs even if they are covers. by far the best cover of any song ever "covered" (in my opinion). if u ever record this as a mp3 file i would love to get a copy so i can drive around listening to this song.

[bloody126]

please man, i beg you, sing "working on leavin the livin". I beg you man. Fucking incredible version

[danielhassixstrings]

@bloody126 not sure how that would translate to acoustic guitar, but i might fool around with it. i definitely can't argue with anyone who is tired of living on this planet.

[loganriscool]

Looks like Ed Templeton, to whomever may know who that is.

[sarah7907]

This gave me chills. He's really an amazing singer.

[findanewgoddd]

this is...perfect. nice job man, seriously go somewhere with this

[afro20man]

Sounds like james blunt

[tmandudeguy]

Dude your voice is AMAZING! I play the song the way you do on a steel string but I feel the classical really goes well with your awesome voice! Dude how did you train your voice like that? Its very unique, Im a beginner singer and Im having trouble finding my "own voice"

[littlebigfis]

Nice job, vocals like maroon five!

[gretemeyer18]

i just had an orgasm in my ear

[EKSvideos]

Hey you got a better voice than Isaac from modest mouse. Wait a minute anybody has a better voice than Isaac. I have to admit that was really good though.

[ilikeworldofwow]

that was awesome, keep it up

[eukav]

that was the best cover ever

[BloodCandy92]

awesomee you sound alot like dave matthews

[waiting4thenight]

Great job man. Keep it up. ^^

[emekajohnson]

HE LOOKS LIKE TED FROM HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER!!!

[halo3master155]

awesome job dude, youve got awesome playing ability, a great voice, and some serious talent to cover it like this. keep up the good work.

[xSUMMERx23]

I LOVE YOUUUUUUUU!!! YOUR AMAZINGGGGG

[timerunnerproduction]

i usually have pros and cons on my comments

pros : everything

cons: NOTHING!

this is one of the best covers i've heard (the best cover on this song)

[theoncologist2]

Are you a professional musician? If not, you should be. You're 1000x better than most of the immature pop artists today who don't give a crap about real music.

[PHIFlyers10]

Dude. Great voice. It's very unique.

[jgonzales35]

This was awesome. Good job.

[drinkyellowsnow]

Granted, this is one of my favorite songs... but this has to be one of the greatest covers I've ever heard. STILL love it.

[LarryGunshow1]

His beard was like the sweet choclate cherry coved topping on a cold vanilla flavored icy voice. Respect.

[dinkydodgem93]

i guess you come from another planet where you are a fuckin superstar coz that was an AMAZING cover my freind

[IAmNotGino]

sounds like you'd be perfect for singing marroon 5

[drinkyellowsnow]

@IAmNotGino I agree....

[kristakinkle]

amazing:)

[LEDZEPPELIN7171]

amazing

[misscourtneyjade2]

wow this is really good. (:

[rosj5]

Wow. You have a freaking AWESOME voice:)

[esquirevancoleburge]

im guna be honest when i clicked on this video i thought it was guna suck. then i watched and i was like wwwwwwoooooooooow!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[dammm12323]

It's funny where you laugh at 2:40. Not because you "messed up" as some people would say, but this song just makes you so happy that you just start involuntarily have to express it. Best cover I've seen in a while

[pacingzebras]

you stole my heart when you started laughing.

[IamSpacePilot]

awsome! +1

[schnikeys]

very metrosexual

[yomedley]

this guy is a better singer than a lot af finalists on american idol, thumbs up if you agree.

[MrSunsfan24]

@yomedley its all politics

[modestpocahontas]

you look like ben sheets

[acosarba]

I seriously listen to this when I have a bad day. You're the man dude.

[DarkEnigma02]

Jealous of your voice. I want to cover some Modest so bad but I can't sing their style for the life of me.

[kyleisah303]

Literally, the best cover I have ever heard.

[TurboPowaaa]

Do you have nylon strings on that guitar or metallic ones?

[idae432]

@TurboPowaaa sounds like nylons

[damon1811]

great voice

[choiboy1514]

You should go to American idol!! Ur voice is incredible!

[tvcrunkfool]

@choiboy1514 your a dick

[eedgaradriann]

wooaaoo i like your voice man !

[browneyedgrrl256]

wicked good voice man.

my only suggestion would be to slow down the tempo. great cover though!

[mozfreak84]

I have to say this cover is better than the original. Good job!

[OriginalBrizzle]

I love this :) I want this on my ipod. Send me the MP3? :D

[ch0m3c0]

how come every says that his voice is way better i think its all right nothing special

[theARBITER243]

Nice voice lol :D

[DesertedAcorn]

[EvaValenti]

I like your voice more than the original. :)

[clamourings]
