Cover Eddie Vedder Rise

[van1980]

The examples I've seen on UG have you capo 7th position. Doesn't sound right.

[GuitarGirlMia]

Great cover, great song. I just covered it on the mandolin :)

[udenied]

Hey guys, I started learning to play the mandolin just to cover this song. I've recorded my first attempt, take a look on my profile, it's the newest video. Cool cover ;)

[Elsa7803]

amazing!! good voice

[plopfz]

@Elsa7803

Merci!

[watchermen]

Nice cover. Thanks

[BlueSpirals]

I think it's a really good cover, and I learned to play it myself with your video. thank you

[plopfz]

@BlueSpirals

Great! It's a very versatile song. let me know if you put up a cover.

[worldcitizenman2]

you have a serios voice pal! congratulations, and nice song!

[LadyDancer55]

I like your voice. Smooth and relaxed.. Fits the song

[plopfz]

Thanks all for the nice comments!

[surfbum188]

Well done mate!

[vitarella1909]

thanks!!!!!!

[OtherEdgar]

damn, i love this song dude... thx for this cover

[apholmes7]

Thanks for sharing

[PoisonShadow89]

wow, great!! it gets a completely different mood.. great voice.

[jaseadem26]

Gday dude. I always thought, and think, the lyrics go 'burning black holes in dark memories'. Makes more sense in the context of the song too than 'bringing back holes'. Cheers

[plopfz]

I like your mondegreen.

[mNy90]

He uses an ukelele right? You should try a capo in the 5th fret. I play somewhere over the rainbow which is also played on a ukelele, with a capo in the 5th fret. Should be the same for this. 5 stars :P

[plopfz]

I've wanted to try a ukelele. regarding Over the Rainbow.. Do you do the "50 first dates" version, or your own adaptation? What chords do use?

[mNy90]

I'll send you the tab through a PM cause it's too long to send it in a comment.

Anybody else PM if you want the tab too ;)

[OrangeMochaFraps]

I believe the original is played on a mandolin

[ecaflisch23]

@mNy90 vedder actually uses a mandolin for the studio version.

[plopfz]

Thanks! I thought it sounded kinda low...

[aBIGFOOTproduction]

It was ok, you made it your own by making it a lot different from the original. And that's what covers are all about. Try putting a capo on 5 and play it D G A and speed up the strums. Have fun.

[plopfz]

Thanks, I'll give it a try!

[rhigham4]

good job

[lambro04]

Great, very very nice!

[BobLoblaw23]

Your version is by the best! Next to Vedders of course.

[Timmeyyy78]

great country version with a very good sounding voice!! go on!

[engtothelish]

sounds great man... is that a christmas tree in the background haha?

[watchermen]

Ficus..

[mahpiohazi]

Beautiful. Thanks so much for playing it.

[trottolisa]

Sei molto bravo... davvero!

[plopfz]

Grazie!

[byrows]

veeeeeeery nice, man! simple, true and easy, just like it should sound... :)

may I know what chords were used? I can see D, G, A...

[plopfz]

Thanks for nice comments. Yes. D,G,A. I sometimes hold down the B string at the 3rd fret when playing the G.

[noobskoolbusDOTcom]

wow, thanks for the beautiful song! wow man, just wow.

[mojalewastopa]

..amazing voice man!..really good cover you made..

[Corvallian]

Great voice man. Props on this, I love how you used your own voice instead of trying to copy eddies. Nice job.

[plopfz]

Thanks all for kind comments.

[hunzlwunzl]

Just the fact that you (obviously) neither tried to replicate Eddie's voice nor the original mandolin voicings makes this version amazing. :)

[kuksoolwonninja]

love it, just as much as i love all of the Into the Wild projects :D

[stevo0665]

very nice. i was looking for a guitar version. would like to hear guitar and mandolin together.

[plopfz]

hmm...I like that that..

[PKK0ne]

perfect :)

[distancerunner4]

very impressive! i love this soundtrack....

[michgoblue24]

nice job.  this a great underrated song.

[somethingspecial123]

Great song. 'Guaranteed' is great too. Movie is awesome.

[plopfz]

'Guaranteed' is great. Difficult to remember the long lyric.
