Beg Steal or Borrow Ray LaMontagne cover-Derek Luttrell

[TheMattLeeK]

This deserves a 19 out of 10, dude. And I'm being serious. They should change the rules of that game, just for you.

[elaineelizabethhh]

Oh my goodness, this is absolutely perfect <33

You should cover some Sean Hayes. But anyways this is absolute perfection !

[jnfrvela]

I do believe sir, that I have fallen in love.

[bteieteie]

glorious!

[williamandersonedu]

Something about it just didn't flow right bud. I think it's too slow. Not saying that you ar a bad artist in any way. I am just saying that maybe something else by ready might suit your style a bit more. Burn maybe.

[dan121973]

Excellent! Makes me wanna pick up an acoustic!

[danielsson2]

you should consider turning off the noise reduction on your microphone

[danielsson2]

nice cover. you should check out mine on my page

[MrOzodrac]

buena interpretación! :)

[AlternateEnding88]

first of all, you are adorable. Secondly,  your voice is peeeerfect for this song. loved it. well done!

[TorreyJ]

You make this song worth it. I don't know what else to say. Speechless

[thetyleranasaurus]

good stuff man, wish I could sing like a wise old man. really.

[quelindache4]

This is an amazing cover! You made it unique, but still maintained a similar vibe.

And I love your glasses!

[shaggy4579]

Dude.......I can't begin to explain how much I'm diggin' this cover. Voice is remarkable. I dig Ray's version, but I'd rather listen to yours.

[fendersting]

awesome!

[Dreadnoughtcowboy]

what a great cover !!! chapeau bas ;o)

[soapboxvids]

Your voice is amazing. Absolutely wonderful. I'm addicted.

[Potatoclocks]

yeah..this makes me want to delete my version. nonetheless, your voice is refreshingly different and lovely!

[1x4x9]

Nicely done man. I dig it. Keep 'em comin'.

[HighNortherner]

Dude, whether you stole or borrowed this song doesn't matter...you took complete ownership of it. Awesome cover!!!

[NooGods]

Combination of Joe Cocker and Ray LaMontange! Nice cover ... tres cool.

[mflinsch]

Minnesota Love to you. See you at Harmony next year?

[mayganey]

One word, Amazing.

[DwelleProd]

you single? :) jp good work. You have an incredible voice

[arivox1]

Dude...very well done

[montezband]

really enjoyed this dude!

great voice and good vibe throughout.

You made a good remake that doesn't sound empty without the band parts :D

keep it up :D

[nobodyinpeticular]

Great job on the cover....dirty blues, tons of soul....

[ariving2late]

You did a Great job on this cover! That whiskey rasp voice is perfect for this tune. Do you sing any blues?

[iiwii66]

i love this! the arrangement is fantastic. i hate it when people try to sound like the original artist. ray is ray and he is awesome. this was great. your style is unique and different, well done!

[ninik06]

hummm that's too much slow ! and Ray had a unique vocal :) but good cover

[pclinn]

nice timbre in your voice. bluesy.

[twlund]

I think he is probably tuned down a half step and played in the D shape open chord.

[MrNutt22]

Love your version. Any chance you could do God Willing and the Creek Don't Rise by Ray?

[bobmuse40]

a little slow so it loses it's potency, but you got it bro :)

[Somnamblator]

Great job, but you really do need better recording equipment to capture that voice!

[givingitashot1]

Stunner of a cover!!!:)

[COSMOSUPPLY]

I will be in minne in a few weeks,, it would be so cool to have you play this song for my wife....she so loves this song and your version,,,emal me at bryanfield@msn.com...thanks B

[tashamon85]

I love it! Your voice is wonderful.

[AviatorAndyK]

not a fan of that guitar playing, probably sound better finger stlye, but holy hell, killer voice you've got there mate.

[6d43ph374]

I signed up to You Tube just to talk to you. Sometimes random things all line up perfectly. This is one of those times. LaMontagne will likely never perform this song as good as you have in this video. you will touch many hearts. Savor it.

[coreyswhite]

good cover man!!

[gambledcat]

This is such a great cover. your voice is perfect for it, and you sing it like you wrote it yourself. I actually like your version better than Ray's (ssshh!).

looks like you come to mpls often. i look forward to seeing you live at some point.

[LuttrellMusic]

@gambledcat Thank you so much! That means a lot. If you are interested, the release show for my first full length record is Sept 22 @ the Kitty Cat Klub in Minneapolis. It should be fun! Thanks again!

[zoso0987]

hey bud, you need yourself some quality equipment. your talent definitely deserves it.

[devendrabanhart25]

another awesome performance, and covering Ray is no easy thing.

[lzenke]

You have an amazing voice!! You definitely did Ray justice... Keep the vid's coming!

[Zootsuit43]

Raw, humbling, amazing! I aspire.....

[suzielee02]

This is absolutely wonderful. I'm a huge Ray fan and you do him justice with this cover. Kudos, my friend. Nice glasses, by the way.

[TheJto21]

Fantastic cover. Great voice for a Ray cover. I was wondering with these chords are you playing them all as bar chords? And using that muted sound? Or are you slapping the strings for percussion?

[JigglerOnTheRoof]

Good one bro,just learned this today it`s a doozy!

Nice bluesy version..all the best mate!

J

[emileech]

Your voice is great! Love this.

[AngieInVancouver]

LOVE IT! I cant get enough of this song -- and you sound great! Thanks!!

[milnth]

Capo s/b on 4th fret

[LuttrellMusic]

@milnth Yeah thats how ray recorded it, but it was more comfortable for me to sing it with the capo on the 3rd fret.

[milnth]

@LuttrellMusic very cool

[amberstar91890]

Holy Goodness your voice is so awesome! I love it! Obviously you are a Ray LaMontagne fan.... that means you know good music! I will definitely have to check out some of your original songs.

[NeilWatsonMusic]

Really great job dude! Lovely cover of this song and I'll definitely check out your other videos/music!!

N

[gablush]

Nice job!

[daschuck77]

Gotta ask you, what is the tuning for this song?  Thanks and great job!

[LuttrellMusic]

@daschuck77 Thank you :) I played it in standard tuning but I put a capo on the 3rd fret. Thanks again!

[brimcgi]

awesome job! what chords do you happen to be using?

[LuttrellMusic]

@brimcgi Thank you very much!

Im not sure if its all right, but these are the chords I used:

Capo 3

Verse: A G D

Chorus: E G D A E G D Em A

Bridge: Em A

[latinology]

@LuttrellMusic Great cover--try Cadd2 instead of Em in the chorus

[FitandEnergizedJenn]

@latinology let the artist do it how he wants, do your cover that way.

[iiwii66]

@FitandEnergizedJenn AGREED!!!!! why do people try to mimic the original artist!? it takes more creativity to make it your own!!!!!!

[latinology]

@FitandEnergizedJenn Just an idea, not an order.
