This is THE best version of this song I've ever heard. And there are a great many versions (as you know). It is a great pleasure to hear this done so well.
@AbsenceGuitarist Get some fekin respect and dont come onto other peoples videos (which is obviously better) and bitch about them as if there shit.. WHEN THEIR NOT ! P.S ur a twat
hey clint, well from a western candian boy your version of this inspired me to learn and perfect this song. going to recor it on dec 12th, i wonder though why you dont do all the verses.. would love to hear that from you awesome job bud. enjoy your work
look...if you could play the song without reading the song off the screen it would be great. Memorize it in your head and then let's hear it....GO...you're voice is fantastic. Waiting to hear the REAL you.
Your voice is perfect for the song.. I subscribed :) I did a cover of of this song too. Just click my username or paste this above if ya wanna check it out: watch?v=hVmczSXHXds
This Leonard Cohen-penned masterpiece made famous/timeless by Jeff Buckley may well be regarded as 1 of the GREATEST songs in music history. Having said that, I think it's good/fun/exciting for fresh/individual musicians like yourself to approach it. I'm so glad you did! The end result was special. I found it particularly catchy (besides UR soulful/powerful voice & gentle acoustic playing) because you gave it a very heartfelt/sentimental feel (less mournful than what we're used too). Nice work!
Clint... I must say mate, that you do both Jeff Buckley and Leonard Cohen proud :) And I must tell the truth that this version is SO good that I'm actually able to harmonise with it... YOU ROCK Mate!!!
I much prefer your cover to the others! All your covers are extremely nice, especially the crowded house ones too! You are quite an inspiration to me, Thank you! :>
WOW! You put all those Idol "starts" to shame...you have a gorgeous voice and I love all your vids. Please keep em coming Clint, and thank you for sharing your talent with us :)
No seriously, perfect video, you have a very nice voice and you know how to use high notes, not like Celine Dion or others that are always screaming in the micro, what screw their beautiful voice. The video is clean, the sound perfect. 4 STARS !!
awesome job clint ! as always babe...i have to say though it reminds me of the original singer, and all i can think of is Shrek hehehehe, I love that movie !!! :)
I think you should've been a finalist in the Talent Quest! It's great the way you make your songs sound really professional but raw at the same time. Great work dude!
I just saw heidebretagne's version which made me feel like I was in Church. Very reverend and beautiful. Your version is the most powerful I heard after listening to about 5 different versions, including Leonard Cohen's and Jeff Buckley's. What a different mood everyone delivered. Awesome my friend!
Wow1 I love the songs of Leonard Cohen,But I think that you have the most beautiful voice I have heared in a long time. You give his song a totaly new demansion absolutely Awe SOME!!! THANK YOU !!! Aukina,
Thanks a lot for posting this song. I didn't know it before and I like your interpretation very much. Thanks also for posting the lyrics and chords. Good idea! :)
Thats exactly how a song about the struggle and the faith and the love should be done. Nevermind Cale's huge arrangment--just a man and his guitar, with a little help from some electronically produced echo. Excellent interpretation. Hallelujah.
A bit too much reverb (but I am guilty of that also some times :-).
Leonard Cohen gets covered a lot but check out Brandi Carlile's version of this song.
It was recorded live on a radio broadcast I think and you can buy it from i-tunes. It's as good as Leonard's IMHO. I think the Cowboy Junkies did it also.
that is a really good cover. I have one question, how are you doing those chords, they arent bar they just seem like you doing the basic chords 3 frets up or somthing. Well anyway im confused but if you could give me a hint that'd be great haha:]
Beautiful mate this is a really great cover...what guitar are you using it has a lovely ring to it...please check out my vesion i would appreciate constructive comments...
Now Annalaura (my daugther) want's to hear this on repeat. She knows it from Shrek, and she says you sing it beautifully- I can only agree with that, I love it..
You sing my favourite song's!! If there was a cd of you i buy one!!! I like you voice in all of your song's very good. nd the guitar game was awsome..
VERY VERY nice... i'm a big fan of you!!! I wait for others..
It is always a pleasure for me to return to your cover of this song. Thanks again, and keep on singing!!!
