BEST COVER i heard on youtube so far!!!! Guitar play is absolute beauty, all hail the new king ;) ......people who disliked this must be definitely stone deaf.
This is the best cover ive seen, your voice suits this song really well and the guitar playing is perfect, your guitar has a really nice tone, what is it?
the guitar playing is AWESOME. just too good.. the vocals can be more powerful, but seriously, how can someone dislike this? the guy's got some serious skill
That song was stuck in my head when i heard my grandfather died, this is so beautiful....i'm actually getting tears in my eyes just by listening to this song :')
after hearing you play, it makes me aspire to try harder and get it right. Champion effort and a pleasure to listen to again and again and again. I envy your talent,, Brilliant.
Mate amazing cover! I really need to learn that fingerpicking style can only really play the Beatles famous style Julia...Happiness is a warm gun etc...
Ive been looking at the best covers for this song. After listening for months, I can definitely say this is the best of the best. I cant believe people gave 12 thumbs down.
Omg. I usually play this song in standard tuning but I'm gonna have to learn it in this one. It sounds beautiful in open G (it probably also didn't hurt that you played it amazingly).
Dude you nearly made me cry listening to you... You rock!!! Keep on!!! I've listened to a lot of covers of this song, and I can say with no doubt your is the best!!!
Hey there man, nice cover, well done :) Just wondering if you've tried the 5th fret capo'ed version as well, and whether you had any opinion on if it was harder than the Open G version?
Absolutely wonderful performance, this is perfection. At 4'38 I wondered how the ending would go, the song cried out for those piano notes. I thought "oh well, you can't have everything" - but then at 5'18 there they are, you did it! Spine-tingling stuff.
Fantastic. I'm envious of your fingerpicking. Finally nice to see some real talented musicians cover artists here, mostly it's dying cats and woody guthrie strums. Nice job.
For more than 22 years I have been searching for the little "detail" who could explain why I couldn't play this song as similar as the original one...
You may think it wasn't so import to me, but it was! Thank you a lot, you're awesome; I'm still keeping my "Open G" tunning for more than a week and playing only this song until now...hehehe..
i think this is amazing, i love this song so much, and have been listening to a few covers on here, but this is byyy farrr the best one. your amazing!
The absolute best/truest version of this great song that appears anywhere here on You Tube or anywhere else! It ain't debatable! Done! Pau! Finis! Sayonara! Adios! Au Revoir! Aloha! Auf Weidersehen! Beat it, losers!
Dominic, look for my message off-line, and keep on truckin' braddah! You're WAY skilled!
wow, what a great job. The only suggestion I would have is using a mic if you can get your hands on one. Your voice is definitely the right tone for the song though, so I would try to sing it any louder. Excellent!
let me tell you you have played this wonderfulllly. i just love the way you have played it. just wanted to know why has evryone used a capo for this? and can one play without it?
dominichazell... I've been tried to follow your performance, but doesn't match... Maibe it's another way to adjust the strings or something... but my standart adjustment didn't work. Is that "D" tone?
Thats the magic of Open G. This is played in Open G. Although you can try playing it in Standard tuning it will not sound the same. Open G is magic. I love it. Check my version of Beast of Burden.
Absolutely Not, I AM GOOD... He is VERY, VERY GOOD. Congratulations... The accords are very close to the original.. Just pay attention to the rhythm, sometimes he do a little bit faster, a little bit slower...
it's true. I do. oh well, not much I can do about that. In Vietnam, they called me Mr Potato Head. I've been bald for years, I've heard it all before. Does it bother me? On a good day no, on a bad day yes. What do you look like? And does it matter?
@swevsdk HA-HA I just checked your profile picture out..you look like man in drag!! you got a cheek! I thought all women from Sweden were supposed to be beautiful! something went wrong with your DNA didn't it!! HA-HA!!
This is just the most perfect cover of this song, a great vioce and the guitar playing is as good as the knofler himself. this video has been favourited. keep it up, you're amazing!
added to my favorite playlist. I play you over...and over...thanks
