Ur cover is so unique.You play like you would be next to a fire with the closest friends of ur,so deeply,and humanly.ON the other hand,ur totally pro! :) I think this song fits u very well,u kinda make it even better...:) ur cover kinda touches my heart...ur a great musician! :)
Excellent cover! I agree that the barre chords make it groove more. I didnt notice any missing chords. What kind of guitar is that? Cant quite see the name on it. Laguna?
@theivory1 This song in C is simply a bit too high for my voice, so I put it in Bb. Besides, with the barre chords I have more control over the ringing strings and can get it to groove better.
I've been searching for the original of this song by Michael Penn, and I've only been able to come across covers on this site. Nothing really seemed to do the original justice...until I found this! I've completely stopped looking for Penn's version and I have this on my playlist now :)
GREAT job! You have an amazing talent that is pure bliss to the ears!
It cracks me up that the original is not here at all. The record company should be happy that some of us appreciate this song and would spend time listening to the son of a Marxist sing it, lol.
I usually judge covers by how close they sound to the original but this was great! I love the modified strumming and slides. It really made the solo acoustic sound much richer. Keep it up!
Really outstanding. Helped me learn the tune on guitar. It would be a great song for the streets of New Orleans (the acoustics at the corner of Royal and St Louis are outstanding but the competition for that space can be fierce). Anyway, if you ever make it there you would have a blast.
Really, a great job! I fell in love with this song, and all I can seem to find are covers, but this is the best one I've come across. Where do you perform? Maybe I'll see you live sometime :)
I remember this song ,but I heard on Stern the other day too, so I got on a kick to learn it and post a version,He's to u fellowStern fan!(check mine if u like)
One thing on Michael Penn, although this was his only song that really "hit big," he's really an enormously talented singer/songwriter -- if you haven't checked out his other work, you should!
Well, I've showed this bit to a lot of friends. You could easily get gigs here in Belgium. Such a talent. Hope to see you in the charts some day! You have a lovely voice and great guitare skills! I'll keep my fingers crossed!
I play drums, and for me, songs can be fun or boring depending on the guitar. You do a great job of making this good song more upbeat just by changing the strumming.
sweet thing man =) sounds really awsome =) ur voice and your playing is just amazing....u should participate on a t.v show and earn millions. i belive u actually have really good chances on winning

Why didnt you play this in C the way it was recorded. Its a hell of alot easier than all the bar chords. Its sounds good though, dont get me wrong.
