The song itself is beautiful and its beauty is only intensified with the way the video is filmed. The way half your face is in shadow and how your shadow is cast on the wall. The simplicity is astoundingly alluring. This is wonderful it rivals the original video but I'm not going to compare the two because they are both amazing within themselves.
I really like this song, and the original is excellent, but the acoustic version is so much more raw and honest. I've seen the word "haunting" down in the comments several times, and I couldn't have said it better myself. Fantastic song, Edd. Absolutely fantastic.
Your lyrics are phenomenal! I am thoroughly jealous of your talent in that arena. I would love to hear you sing some songs in a lower key. You don't tend to use a lower key but your voice really suits it. Keep up the fabulous work, Edd!
I'm so throroughly impressed by your singing, your voice is so strong and balanced and over all impressive. I've been thinking about it for some imte and wanted to tell you :) I hope you get far with your music :)
@mAXtAXIbOY Cm, Bbmaj, G#maj, Gmaj then in this bridge thing it changes to Ebmaj:) in this version he's got the Capo on the 3rd fret so he's playing Am, C, F, Emaj
You know I was just procrastinating doing dishes because my place is a mess, and I found your channel, your songs are really touching... It's actually almost disturbing how hard it hits right now, and to be honest I don't actually say that sort of thing because it sounds silly but I feel it is necessary :)
The use of shadows in this is actually very effective, I never noticed it the first few times i watched this :D Was it done intentionally? Like with the shadow of you singing when the shot is on Tom playing piano, because it looks really nice :)
wow... I was just browsing through you videos and this came up, it was crazy cause my boy friend and I were basically talking about the very thing this song is talking about..
Also this is brilliant! I really like the original so having an acoustic to is lovely. The song is great either way, and I can't decide which I like better..
@eddplant ah ok. I guess i used the wrong words. from the middle on the song sounds totally different then hurts but i remember a video of them where you can see the singers face at the beginning and the instruments and how you sing seem similar (only at the beginning) sry if I offended you with the first comment ^-^'
@natschkal000 I'm sorry if I gave the impression I was offended! I was just responding with a fact. That is interesting that there are parallels but I really don't know much about Hurts AT ALL.
@ashman3600 he does a lot of that on this thing called Explorers 6, I don't think he's feeling stifled or anything but I will check with him when he gets back from America.
this is so beautiful. this made me even more emotional than the album version, and i love that. i just love the softness of your voice, and the way the filming is so beautiful, and not gimicky like it so could have been. this is beautiful, you deserve somuch more recognition than what you have. <3
I believe that the first one shows the emotions that are in the lyrics, while this one is too soft to really capture that emotion. But great work still.
I love how the beginning is paralleled at the end with the same camera angle on your face and a repeat of the very first line. I love things that do the coming full circle thing, it's really wonderful (: this song is absolutely gorgeous, too! Excellent work! :D
Literally found this the day after breaking things off with the man I love because he wasn't looking for the same things I was... For some reason I can't stop watching/listening to this version. It's so emotional, perfect. Love it!
Oh no! It says that the video has been removed! I take it that other people haven't been having this problem, or there would be comments about it, but is there any other way for me to see/hear it?
Untitled is my favourite song of yours. This acoustic version is absolutely beautiful. I just love it, and the video angles and lighting worked well with the atmosphere of the song.
the fact that this song even have a dislike button makes me a bit upset. its just so fantastic and you have the most amazing voice! moves me to tears every time i listen to it... ahhh, i rally cant find the words to tell you how much i like it, and on top of that my english really sucks^^
I have to say... I've been searching for word some time now. I havn't been able to find them. And then this song comes along and says it all just the way it needs to be. Cheers mates, you're doing great as always.
I like this one much better than the album version, and I like how this one is a little more depressed and longing while the album one is more angry. Love it, nice job!
i love the difference in the style of this and the original, this almost seems sitting in a car looking out thoughts where as the original was upright in public screaming at people with your anger :)
So in all honesty the original version of this song is probably not one of my favorites but this version...this version is simply beautiful!! I can not WAIT to get my hands on Quietly Confident.
I really like the acoustic version more than the one I have. This is fantastic.
