  • no fukin way

  • haha, i love this kind of performances. Reminds me of Daniel Johnston

  • Oh, sorry, its Matts cover...not bobs, jijiij

  • Very poorly executed.

  • i'm so confused watching this

  • thats so awesome how you guys cover so many elliott smith songs... im jealous of your high school, haha

  • dude he is wearing flip flops

  • LOL WTF is this?

  • you should try mixing up your singing voice just a little bit.

    i think youd have more success then.

    but i cant even play so....you already have me beat right there

  • yeah voice kills it man

  • Sorry, I'm not a hater, but this version was really not my cup of tea...Don't like the voice...But good luck anyway

  • Great job!!

    =D

    If you stick to the guitar, you could go far.

  • not a huge fan of the voice for this song... sounds kinda beatles-ish

  • fuck the haters, you are awesome. My opinion outweighs every negative thing ever said or written. You are awesome.

  • this is beautiful

  • i don't like your voice, but i like what you do with it, if that makes sense. like, i think you have talent, you just got the short end of the stick when god was assigning vocal chords. take it as you will, but good cover.

  • Your voice is Horrible!!

  • cmon man you obviously know nothing about elliotts music he plays with so much emotion that his voice doesnt matter and this kid did just that and i think its amazing and beautiful if the video didnt cut right when he finished im sure you would see the crowd agrees

    if you dont have anything nice to say dont say anything man

  • You drew some interesting conclusions to my very simple 4 word comment.

  • just dont hate on someone who worked really hard

  • nice job man! I respect anyone who does Elliott Smith's music justice!!

  • you know, your voice is different, but you sing in tune. so fuck what the rest of these people have to say.

    great job.

  • Wow, I hardly ever comment on anything on YouTube, but this guy's got a wonderful voice in my opinion! Who gives a shit if it's not technically perfect, there's emotion in it. And that's what counts. And knowing something about guitar playing myself, he definitely plays a lot better than I did in high school. Start a band, unless you already did!

  • dude you did a great job man. its good to hear a unique voice every now and then.

  • i think this kid is awesome.

    it takes guts to get up on stage like that.

    his guitar is perfect..

    and so yeah, maybe his voice is a little... different,

    but i still love it

  • i wish people wouldnt hate on these kids so bad. its pretty cool that they wanted to do elliott songs for a high school performance in the first place. Also, anyone who has the guts to play music alone on a stage should be commended. Keep playing Matt.

  • He tried something he wanted to with the song. I think it's being on stage added to the inaccuracy of his intentions. However, still needs to find his own voice big time.

  • i really enjoyed it

    :)

  • pretty good take on memory lane, although you seem like a more pop faster music kind of guy to be playing memory lane.

    it was good but too rushed in the strumming section and to the idiot who says he needs to learn how to pick like elliott, 70 percent of the song is strummed and everytime he's played it, he's played it different

  • i thought it was great.

  • oh man wtf is this... ever heard of a metronome?

  • Hahahah, your come backs are classic like, hahaha. I suggest you stop defending this shit, lol. People in the audience will be cringing watching this shite, only americans will put up with that, they'll clap at anything.

  • hahahaha dude, i'd clap only for the guitar. his voice sucks!!

  • Stop playing elliott smith songs the cop out way and spoiling them! Learn to fingerpick!

  • What a jackhole you are, sir. I suggest you go back to your pictures of Asian lesbians and stay away from music clips.

  • you really don't know what you're talking about. elliott strummed this song. it's the intro that's fingerpicked.

    besides, he should be playing it his own style

  • @whatisayisright props to this kid he's in high school, so unless your 15 and can do a better job than him I would shut your mouth. good job matt im impressed.

  • I can't take you seriously with a voice like that, but nice playing none the less.

  • Jealousy overwhelms me.

  • are you guys all guitar playing elliott fans or what? haha... awesome

  • very good performance!

  • you guys all play well must have an excellent teacher.
