I've never been one for competitions. I did a bit of work in TV years ago and it's more about what they can make popular rather than talent. Thanks for the vote of confidence though :)
Portugal is a country I love to visit. I have spent several weeks in Armacao de Pera, and made a few friends whilst there. Without doubt the portuguese know what to do with a fish :)
I see lots and lots of great comments and brilliant questions so i thought id stick a spanner in the works with a silly comment and silly question but one in which i dont know the answer to, so maybe it isnt silly lol.. What is the big round mesh looking bit around the mic for? Just havent seen one on a mic before.
Hey that's not silly at all. It's a question I've been asked on several of my vids. The addition to my mic is a home-made pop filter. When singing, certain consonants can cause distortion on a sensitive mic. Such as the consonant 'P'. It has a similar effect to the wind blowing on the mic. This is dissipated by the pop filter before it gets to the mic :) I hope that clears it all up :)
Just looking through a few of your covers and must say they are fantastic. You put your whole heart into this song. I subbed and added you as a friend. Well done mate, keep up the good work.
I know the music video was a traffic jam but the song is clearly about preventing suicide... it tells people not to give up when they are down...you sang the lyrics you should know haha!
Hey! I have only discovered your work today and have listened to a-lot of them. I made a negative comment regarding Yellow cover, but in no way did it reflect your talent. This cover of Everybody Hurts is brilliant, emotional and beautiful to listen to. Nice one mate.
Jeff, Your voice is absolutely amazing! You are a true artist! Thank you for blessing all of us out here with your wonderful gift! God Bless you and please keep on blessing us!! Your rendition brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for sharing with us!
amazing voice i did this song too but im a girl an not sure if i cracked it or not but means alot to me!...you defo cracked it, love your voice..5stars from me x
Jeff, I saw the duet you did with Karen Eng, which is what brought me here. Looks like I'll be here a while because, buddy, you owned this one! Thanks!
Is it really about a traffic jam? wow. I like your version, sounds great. I just finished my cover of this and i'm just checking out a few different versions :-)
Do you realize your giving him the biggest compliment, because i get people such as yourself telling me that too and it really is us so yeah, it's a compliment!
Oh my god how can someone be that stupid. Why would a grown man have all that equipment and waste time just to fake singing. You utter twat. Awesome voice man.
Very good! Your voice when you are talking is deep, and when you sing it becomes similar to Micheal Stipe's. Not easy. It is a good performance! When i practice with guitar i use your video because it's difficult for me to find original version on youtube (many lives, but not the studio version).
Wow - I've NEVER heard anyone who could sing this like the original - until you. Amazing job. You've got a terrific voice. I look forward to hearing more of your work.
Thank you very much. I actually have an album out of my own stuff, and I'm hopefully going to team up with a good guitarist soon for another album project :)
I have to say, your voice is awesome, i rated 5 stars, I can listen to this over and over again without getting fed up with it, so.. thank you ; ) : D
OMG you sound like Michael Stipe !!!! :)
