Open Your Eyes (acoustic cover) by Snow Patrol

[reksub10]

awesome lads i loved the lead in the solo ,1st ive seen on a you tube cover of this song ,cheers for that ..you totaly nailed it .,and nice vocals aswell brilliant

[Tombomb7]

great job guys! really enjoyed learning this song from you I love the fact that you've got a few snow patrol song lessons up! I'm just wondering if you had any idea how to play the part at about 4.10 if you are playing one your own? Would love to hear any ideas!

[carlycatoptric]

i like the guitar.

[aushandsomealvin]

Thanks

[roketman09]

not bad lads,,but ma cuzin sang it 10times better on the karioki last nite!no shit!!!ahahah

[aushandsomealvin]

Cool, tell me where the Youtube video is and I'll check it out

[EllieJohnston93]

Best cover ive seen on youtube of this song so far :) i love the acoustic & your voice together sounds real nice :)

Well done; just got yourself a subscriber :D <3 xx

[aushandsomealvin]

Thankyou very much for the awesome comment, we really appreciate it!!!!

[guitarplaya601]

beautiful cover lads

keep it up :)

[aushandsomealvin]

Thanks and will do

[ricksey]

Good cover guys, are you slightly muting the verse at the start?

[aushandsomealvin]

No not really a mute more just playing quitely to try and acheive that quite part at the start of the song. Also just focusing on the top strings mostly

[cshape]

it wasn't too bad, but you gotta put some more balls into it.

[aushandsomealvin]

Thanks for the feedback.

[Umar20005]

more balls? hmm

[Saunders91]

nice vocals but the rythm in the guitar is bizar, and the strumming is to heard i guess...:) i like it however

[aushandsomealvin]

Thanks, we had to change this one quite a bit to get it to sound any good on just acoustic guitar and this is what we came up with. If you do exactly what they do in the song it sounds a bit to empty so we thought we would change it a bit!!!

[lukeee0001]

nice, nicee. chek out our cover of open your eyes by snow patrol n tel us watchu think =]. well dun agen!

[aushandsomealvin]

Thanks heaps, I checked out your version and it's great well done!!!

[LittleWogBoi]

great job guys :)

[aushandsomealvin]

Thanks, you can also see we changed this one from the original also due to us using acoustic guitars.

[LittleWogBoi]

[aushandsomealvin]

Don't know what that means but thanks if it is a complement and if it's not then we try our best. Click on the video response for a lesson on how we play the song.

[renanludy]

[scubapod]

Great tune really enjoyed it nice and haunting - I dont know if youve been asked but do you have the tab for the instrumental at the end please- (some great tunes on your site as well.)

[aushandsomealvin]

Thanks for the comment, glad you enjoyed the song, if you would like the tab just send us a private message with an email address and I can send the tab as a word file.

[joeakapins]

nice dude

[aushandsomealvin]

Thanks, glad you enjoyed!!

[jakkalage]

:) Yay, I also meant Homophonic :P I always get those mixed up! (Y) Good luck aswell btw!

[jakkalage]

Really good........but I have some constructive critisism.......sorry........a­wsome vocals.......maybe speed up the strokes what the flowery dude plays....harmonise with chorus.....and during chorus its to blocky and monophonic with you playing the same thing possibally appegiatte the chords or palm mute I'm not to up with my guitar terms being a pianist sorry just thought I'd help a great cover get better ;) yours Jak.

[aushandsomealvin]

Thanks for the comment, constructive is the best kind of critism. I definately agree with the harmony in the chorus, we have been meaning to work on that when we get some time. Appegios in the chorus would not work that well 'cause the chorus builds up (hence the 2 guitars playing) but it might work in the verse which is a lot quieter, palm mute would probably also work. We will give it a try and see how it goes!!!

[Brainboxxx]

Hey Guys, that is very very good.

And i think that shirt is hot ;-)

[aushandsomealvin]

Thanks for the comment and glad you like the shirt, I can tell you have good taste.

[greenbelter123]

[aushandsomealvin]

I have been told that occasionally (well every time I wear it actually) but I like it. THanks for listening, hope you enjoyed, check out some of our other videos if you would like to see some of my more normal wardrobe.

maybe will see you guys again at the club this friday for the contiki party....

[aushandsomealvin]

Thanks, we really enjoyed the gig. I will see what we can do for your requests. We will be at the club again this Friday for a function for one of the Uni club fundraisers, we are welcome to come and say hello if you are there and hopefully there will be another guy that we sometimes gig with there who can do Hotel California really well.

[kanzascityshuffle]

Nice job! I love this song... Thanks for commenting on my video!

[BrantWebb]

Nailed it guys. Looking forward to more posts.

[wabr6]

Pretty Good!! Pretty Damn Good!!

[aushandsomealvin]

Thanks heaps we appreciate the comment. We are in the process of finalising some gigs so we will be able to play to people other than all you guys out there in cyberspace, not that it will help you, us being in Brisbane and all!!!

[thecosmicpuppet]

You've changed man! Now that you're famous on Youtube, it's like I don't know you anymore.

[enprojectathotmail]

Like the intro and logo! Obviously you haven't taken my advice on a haircut - shame. Maybe you can style it like your logo and really look cool. I don't know what type of surgery is needed to get your eyes to look like hearts tho, but I'm sure it would be painful. Oh yeah, nice song.

[aushandsomealvin]

Will look into appropriate surgery.

[29coronas]

Good stuff.  Stay true to yourself.

[aushandsomealvin]

Thanks Marsha but we are not on Autralian Idol.

[vincehickey]
