[Actress2be1213]

[182JeanJean182]

You are really good dude

[bloodyblace]

Really nice. I like it! :D

[laney147]

Sucky intro! not even playing the correct chords, sounds nothing like the original! Rest Pretty awesome

[Vinceeent1]

dude that sing is better than the official song ;o

[OfficialScrillmix]

Shades Inside. So Chill :)



[harmany281]

Hey, you're really really good. If you were to produce an album, i'll get it.

[jadee810]

[UnFaIrDeMoLiTiOn]

your good man but I don't think this is your genre. You have a good voice and I think it go awesome with country (Sorry if you don't like country) or some type of Alternative rock with more than you.

[MapleHack3r]

ripper778 orly you are good =)

keep it up man!

[Bigesuwa]

Awesome :D

[darksecret12345]

[Orangeman334]

You really have a vibe about you. I enjoyed wathcing this. Great cover

[ripper778]

Thanks a lot Orangeman334!

[tirithon147]

its funny that the ones that cant even play this in takt alwys have over 10000 views

[ripper778]

Not only views but also comments. People tend to stop & comment if they hate the video so they can tell the person how much they suck. I appreciate that you took the time to comment. Peace!

[Ketomontefori]

you ever tried for american idol you have a very good voice

[ripper778]

Thanks for your comment, I just sing for fun.

[Fazacsi]

[bugsm4216]

Thanks very much bugsm4216.

[Trenb]

OH MY GAWD!

OH MY GAWD!

OH MY GAWD!

Your voice isn't the best ever, but it's pretty dam good. Did you learn to sing that way or sorta just always could? I'm trying to practice harmonizing my voice like you would a guitar when you tune, and see if I get any better....Seems like I can sing with your video pretty good compared to the originals...maybe it's just me....another good job

[ripper778]

To me there is no greater compliment then someone telling me they were singing along with my video.

[Fiero383]

very nice!!

[ripper778]

Thanks-you kindly.

[mariahjeanclark]

Great job! By far the best cover of this song! =).

[ripper778]

Thank-you very much for your nice comment.

[sk8guitarest]

this song broke the 5 star it went past it it went up to a 10 star GRAT JOB !!!

[ripper778]

Thank-you. I really appreciate all the comments you left me.

[tuteenostandard]

not too sure about the fourth chord u use in the chorus cuz its different frm BFS's,but other than that, awesome singing,great guitar,5 star vid

[ripper778]

I played an F#m which is what BFS does in their acoustic version. Thanks very much for your generous comment & 5 star rating.

[jaythefisherman]

guitar poor to fair at the very best, voice,,10 stars, quit guitar and just be a lead singer you have the voice!

[ripper778]

I am a lead singer so I use the guitar to help me practice the voice. I never claimed to be an awesome guitarist.

Quit the guitar...NEVER, but thanks for your feedback.

[jin78493]

you just gave me wow

[ripper778]

Cool, thanks for your comment.

[WorldRecordBanjo]

Finnaly, I've seen a video where the guy can play the guitar and sing WELL. Great video. Great song. Great all around!

***** :D

[ripper778]

Thank-you! Your comment means a lot.

[bcrumpty]

Another "5 star" job man! Are you signed with anyone? if not...you should be! Keep em coming, I actually learn from watching your videos, I cant do the "Tab" thing, I just play by ear and watch guy's like you on Youtube!

[ripper778]

Thanks for your comment. No not signed, I play for fun.

Cheers,

Shane

In all of your covers I think you try to hard.

Just let naturality over take you. You'll do better and less up tight on video covers
