@RheaNicole0308 wow, I'm glad you liked it. thanks!

[kaitfish1]

n yea, i have to say this is my favorite dave mathews song, i want some guy to sing this to me!!

[kaitfish1]

i love this! you are really talented. what notes are you playing? i'm trying to learn this song but i cant see the frets very well! :)

[akangell]

@kaitfish1 hey, thanks! you can find tabs at dmbtabs dot com.  that's where i learned pretty much all the dmb songs I know.

[kaitfish1]

@akangell but i cant seem to find "dreamgirl" when i look at the Dave mathew songs they have to offer

[akangell]

@kaitfish1 Just search for Dave Matthews Band Dreamgirl on Youtube and you'll find it no problem.

[alxoxo987]

[akangell]

@alxoxo987 Thanks!! Happy to hear it.

[Sassafrassy100]

Wow :D you're voice is wonderful!

[sarto12345]

[BangGrang2020]

[tragicxxblonde]

wow, this is my favorite dave matthews song and you did a great cover, very original too :)

[tragicxxblonde]

wow, this is my favorite dave matthews song and you did a great cover, very original too :)

[justincase4080]

Did you find the tabs for this one man or did u just figure out the chords for it? Cuz Does dave even play any chords during the verses?

[singinginsleep]

This is one of my favorite Dave songs, and you do it justice. Your voice is great!

[maloneyluke]

Shits dope dude. I love when people take a song and make it their own as opposed to trying to play it exactly like the band. Great job man.

[MrSilversurfer1234]

I've got a question, I posted a video of myself on youtube three days ago but it still isn't on here, what am I doing wrong?

[akangell]

Check and see if you accidentally posted it as a private video.

[thundertonka]

Very nice cover man!

[sublimetom23]

very smooth... i just sat down for the last 3 hours and used this video to learn how to play it.. daves voice is easy to match also so it sounds just like it

[akangell]

much appreciated.

[BERNZIE41]

beautiful cover...beautiful face..just sayin..

[akangell]

thanks for the kind words. :)

[1ByLandies]

you can tell your not just singin the song your totally feelin it. good stuff man

[akangell]

heh, yeah, it's a good song to feel while singing. :)

[Brn2Snap1]

Your making me cry dude. ur voice is so pure and beautiful. Keep music alive. xo

[akangell]

wow, thanks.  much appreciated.

[calavoie1]

dude you have a nicee voice where you from? haha wanna make a dmb cover band with me? lol

[akangell]

thanks! yeah that'd be sweet if you're in the area. I'm in kansas city, mo.

[knk102]

So good - loved it!

[akangell]

thanks!

[dsergi]

I thought I seen all your videos by now but missed this one...Great job...I honestly think yours is better than the DMB version. Dave needs to do this song acoustic, its soo much better.

[akangell]

heh, thanks. yeah i don't know that i've seen him do this one by himself. would be nice.

[72pound]

great cover dude!! :) im workin on this one. But hands down to you!!! Great job!!!

[Counterweight91]

fantastic!

[akangell]

Please stop spamming my vids.

[jarjar612]

great cover man...Quick question...whats the chord you play bewteen the e and the A in the pre chorus ...look like an F# m but not positive????

[chillguitardude10]

awesome job man. check out my cover if you have a chance.

[SixStringArt]

dude, your voice IS INCREDIBLE! 5,000 STARS

[mickgar14]

This was a great cover

[cristianolawson]

hey bro, have you always been able to sing like that? god i wish i started this whole music thing when i was young!:(

[cichymati2]

after good long joint!!! lol

[thisisonesweetworld]

beautiful, ha i probably won't stop commenting until i'm through all your videos. i might run out of adjectives.. but anyway, this was perfect

[akangell]

thanks.  i'm glad you like em. :)

[katching]

do you have a myspace?

[akangell]

yup. /drewangell

[ZoOgLeKiD]

awesome. you totally did the original justice, but still introduced your own style into it. and youve got a great singing voice.

[akangell]

thanks! i'm glad you liked it.

[lookitcrashed]

man... definately favorited, im learning this song next, I need a new mic, what are you using to record this?

[lookitcrashed]

oh and where did you learn this from? :) please.

[akangell]

I got it from dmbtabs. I'm using a MacBook, nothing special. Just open it up and use iMovie to capture, then I add a "Live Performance" filter to it in GarageBand and export. It'd be a lot better if the fan in the MacBook didn't start going crazy half way through every song.

[No1Emberson]

No way dude you are smart as hell. This sounds like an easy 300$ Mic.

[BehindThsHazelEyes21]

I just adore your cover of this... Your voice is absolutely amazing. Want to sing me to sleep? ;)

[akangell]

thanks! I appreciate that. If you're anywhere near KC maybe I can do that for ya. ;) Or you could play this when you go to bed I guess.

[BehindThsHazelEyes21]

Darn, Minnesota is not so close :)

[SarahCecilia91]

Your voice is memorizing.

I love it. :]

[akangell]

thanks! i'm glad! :)

[jimcerveza]

great cover man...a bit much on the tremolo, maybe a more judicious application on certain words, instead of at every stanza's end (unless you're after that cutesy effect, but not the right song for it i guess--) but still great man, i'd listen to this again and again

[jimcerveza]

this just gets better and better with every repeated playback...you have a lot of subtleties in your voice which doesn't wear out the ears..if that makes sense. i just love the way you sing man...disregard my comment above

[akangell]

lol, ok, cool. i'm glad you like it!  :)

[ladykiller85]

me too, Im surprised he didnt use it himself, that big stoner. haha

[ladykiller85]

Changed the lyric from "drunk" to "joint" nice...lol

[akangell]

Yeah I like that line better. ;)

[prinz737]

good deal man! the projection think i sujest to take some vocal lessons froma good teacher, dude ur a natural, iv been playing music for ever and singing is a pain in the ass for me. take care again and good luck

[prinz737]

dude awsome! im impressed with your voice, how did your learn how to sing? any tips? thanks man good luck

[akangell]

heh, thanks. i don't know i've always enjoyed singing. i guess like anything else if you do it enough you just better. i've got a long ways to go, especially with more projection and louder songs.

[gunnar1104]

Hope you don't mind if I steal some of the way you played it for myself :)

Btw, this song could totally get you any girl you want.

[akangell]

of course not. have fun! i wish that was the case! ;)

[nziegle]

Good work. You made it your own. Keep it up

[akangell]

thanks! will do. it's fun stuff!

[guitarguy7708]

wow. that was amazing. your voice is amazing and i love the way you played it

[akangell]

[godfollower920]

I am an acoustic artist as well but when I play songs for sets I like to look on you tube for nice inovative ways to play songs in the acoustic fashion... love what you did with it... hope you don't mind that i'm using your rendition for my set. Very enjoyable... great job and nice voice.

[akangell]

Don't mind at all. It's a great compliment. Thanks!!

[mnb6023]

Question for you where did what you are go?

[akangell]

I need to do it again. I posted it and then noticed the audio/video was out of sync.
