  • I will sing this song by deutschland sucht den superstar 2013 for sure 

  • Such a beautiful voice.

  • This is brilliant.

    (P.S, It is in a standard tuning - just slightly flat/sharp, depending where his capo is..)

  • Comment removed

  • shit

  • @AlexiejKillzone3 are you clinically insane?

  • @AlexiejKillzone3

    How can you think this is shit?

  • @AlexiejKillzone3 How can you even say this is shit? :S

  • @AlexiejKillzone3 UMADBRO?

  • I liked the bit with the foots

  • Tell me that wasn't Newton's foot at the end...

  • man who uploaded the video, not to be a sap but its actually just in standard

  • I think he's in Standard D (DGCFAD) with the capo on the 5th fret. It's sharp, though, and with a little rough calibration on my chromatic tuner 446-448hz for A seems to do the trick. Tricky to be sure.

  • @AntiChangeling he's in standard

  • @AntiChangeling ok... maybe not... but the original track is played in standard with a capo on 5th

  • poor technique

    Replay button.

    You're all welcome. ^.^

  • i've got to learn this for a gig at school;)

  • i had the privilege of actually with this guy last year in a bar in my home town and it was one of the best experiences of my life to be sat next to the man himself singing sat next to me while i played guitar for him... we played dream catch me and uncomfortably slow. his voice blew me away... :) hope he remembers a Tom Cary from truro lol. x

  • this ginger DOES have a soul :)

  • 3:00 - ugh i just melted <3

  • he's playing standard EADGBE, not DADFAD

  • wonderfull

  • 3 Dont like this stunnig voice?

    3 haters = Justin Bieber Fans..

    thumbs up for newton Faulkner

  • I learned this one by ear from this vid. and Im 99,99% sure he's playing in D standard (DGCFAD) with Capo on the 5th fret. which means you can play it in Standard tuning (EADGBE) with capo on the 3rd fret. Most of Newtons stuff is played in DGDGAD but sometimes he plays them a half step tuned up. Like in "To the light" and "I need something".. so there you go (Y)

  • 3 people are probably dead by now... ;)

  • He is incredible. Great!

  • such a beautiful song

  • just a Heart For u <3 i have only that sry ;'(

  • its not DADGAD tuning its standart i play the song too ;)

  • @Haladir1989 It's usually played in standard (I play it too), but that's not in standard tuning. This version's definitely an open tuning, and open D minor sounds like a good shout, but I don't know what it is here.

  • @tomcarr666 sry but i learn it from the original Tabs and this is in Standart tuning (sry for my bad english) but I need something another songs from Newton Faulkner are mostly DADFAD or DADGAD tuning.

  • I am falling more and more in love with his music everyday <3 xXx

  • I want him!

  • In response to the confusion about the tuning: The fingerings look exactly like those of the capo 6 version we all know, making it unlikely to be DADGAD or some variant, so perhaps the audio has been transposed in the recording.

  • @MostDullPictures if it helps, in a couple of his other songs he uses DGDGAD

  • There's a really similar way of doing it with standard tuning and capo on 6th, sounds exactly like it does on the album

  • what the tuning of this?

  • Youtube should have a "loop" button.

  • @jonlambofgod666 Type 'repeat' between 'youtube' and '.com' in your url. Enjoy :)

  • @jonlambofgod666 :] definately alt tabbing ftw i guess!

  • @jonlambofgod666

    Actually they kinda have that. just make it youtuberepeat[dot]com in stead of youtube[dot]com

  • @jonlambofgod666 Fuck oath!

  • someone please tell me why this man isnt on top of me right now!!!!! =)

  • newton makes me glad i'm a human

  • 3 dislikes over 2 and a half years ain't bad going :)

  • in love ((: !!

  • I love this song so much. I love it love it love it love it

  • I believe its standard tuning...

  • @Peace1violence0 it is actually, well spotted

  • @Peace1violence0 i swear its not standard tuning cuz im playing it at capo 5th fret and it sound nothing like it

  • @WahTakVong :P You can play it any way you like, but I promise its in standard. Maybe not this version perhaps. But I've jammed with Sam (newton) and he founded the riffs and the song in standard, but by all means please try play it another way. That's the way to becoming the best type of guitarist. PEACE

  • @WahTakVong uumm i play it with a capo on 6th and that sounds amazing on standard so try that but hey anything that sounds great should be good enough for you cause your not newton faulkner and neither am i anything close is great it shouldnt be exactly the same it should be your cover so you should change it but hey your, your own guitarist play it your way thats what im trying to say :)

  • Dreads since 15...he doesn't have to prove anything...I'm sure he's heard it all, but I'm sure he's laughing all the way to the bank...lol! First album 2x platinum...speaks for itself!

  • @bodhaiii comes from the same town as me

  • 3 people cant hear

  • 3 people are cant here and dont know real talent when they hear it ;)

  • Standard tuning actually.

  • Awesome stuff.

    I can imagine him singing to a happy grizzly bear in the woods

  • i love this song it makes me think how much i miss 'him'.... :( i just wish i cud kiss him <3

  • i love this song it makes me think how much i miss 'him'.... :( i just wish i cud kiss him <3

  • Newton Faulkner : Genious!

    Watch my version of this music! Its quite good (;

  • gah the camera zooms out whenever he does the chorus! anyone worked out which chords he's playing for that bit?

  • He Isn't playing DADFAD, I have the book. its just a half step down with capo on 7th :)

  • words cannot describe how amazing this man's music is ; ) i love you, newton!!!

  • This is real music, raw talent, nothing artificial about it.

  • He's playing in standard tuning with a capo on the 5th fret.

  • this song is played in standard tuning with capo on 7th fret (according to Newton) :)

  • @mallan824 why has he got the capo on the 5th then?

  • @burnonatoaster because it sounds pretty good on 5th as well. Although it should really be put on 6th if you're playing in standard tuning cause Newton plays it (on the album and in his official tab book) on the 7th fret with the guitar tuned half a step down. sorry for being a know-it-all... :)

  • @mallan824 capo 6th, standard tuning :)

  • @ManicIbanez23 capo 5th fret, look closely

  • @MrCockSlut on the album version he uses capo 6th fret

  • @ManicIbanez23 yup, that's what I said...

  • @ManicIbanez23 Half step down, Capo 7th :)

  • just: respect :)

  • What 3 sad little fuckers dont like this???

  • @poulova

    It stayed as 3 dislikes for 9 months now... :D

  • how can it be "slightly sharp" what are you on about lol

  • @thejetbushmaster you idiot he means that all the strings are a little sharp....most likely because of the tuner or because of heat.

  • @churchboyslim so he's not a guitarist? No need to call him an idiot... Fag. He was just asking what was meant by 'Sharp'

  • I just sampled his stuff on Amazon, but so far I like his acoustic versions of his songs because they are really powerful and beautiful.

  • seriously love this guy <3

  • I have no words...this songs is perfect, I can`t stop listening since 2 years ago...(sorry for my english!)

  • love this, pure raw talent. the man is a guitar toting GOD!

  • This is simply great.

  • The word's to express the feeling from this song is almost impossible!!...But i figured out a way COMPLETELY AWESOME I LOVED IT !!!

  • Or you could not play around with your tuning, keep it in standard, but apply the capo on the sixth fret.

  • To play this song tune your guitar e flat a flat d flat g flat b flat e flat and put the capo on the 4th fret

  • @23456simo why tune it down if your using a capo? why not just put it on the 3rd?

  • @paudibhoy1991 easier to play on looser strings i think and the A and D are still standard aren't they :P

  • around time 3.04 or so, how beautifully unserious but innocent he is...love the quick laugh...beautiful!!!

  • Thats not what hes playing, but semi tone down on 7th fret, and standard on 6th fret are the same until u use partial capo.

  • I do capo on 6th with standard tuning. but its different to what hes playing here

  • I HAVE THAT CAPO. its also a bottle opener =]

  • Well millions of people have that capo, theres only 3 major designs of capo. :) but i know what its like to see sumin youve got. Im the same when i see someone using one of my guitars

  • I. LOVE. THIS. SONG. SO. MUCH.

    Gives me shivers.

  • i have to learn this song to do a cover in ma band, & we have 2 hours practice...i'm fucked aren't i...

    Great song tho...i love it...

  • beautiful... I just know it makes me feel good so it sounds perfect to me !

  • i just learned  this in standard tuning with a cappo on 6th and it sounds correct to me

  • Check out my cover of this :D

    It's in the original tuning for it, this tuning is not the original tuning for 'All I Got' :)

  • Yeah but I thought I sounded nicer in half step down

  • Well I play it sound alright to me tbh

  • I play this in half step down with the capo in the fourth frett try it out I I'm 100% sure it's right

  • @23456simo

    isnt that just the same as putting the capo on 5th fret?

  • its in standard tunning

  • Like to Justin Timberlake with dreads!

    But your Voice, Win!

  • does it really matter what he is playing in????

  • Ehm, ya, duh - For people who wants to play it, it's PRETTY important to have the tuning right.

    Especially if you are playing with band.

    ^^ There's a reason :P

  • sounds like a capo di tuti capo on the 6th recording with a sharp closed ending

    really nice

  • In the Hand Built By Robots album music/tab book it says Standard Tuning capo 7 (tune down half a step to match recording).

  • I like the thing he does at 2:40..

  • standard tuning.. capo 6

  • If anyone here wants to argue the tuning, i suggest you stop before you make yourselves look like fools.

    Persnally, it does sound like he's playing Drop D with sharp g, but i have only basic musical (theory) training, anyone argues with my take, feel free to show me that you have a basis for your argument

  • standard tuning. but in 443hz i think! capo 6

    but i had no theory training...

  • I'm assuming this is a conversation.. Not an argument.. Its rather silly arguing on the internet. but if you've got a guitar next to you.. Grab it and slap a capo on 6th.. Standard tuning (EADGBE) i you know how to play the song, play along to it..you'll see its pretty much perfect.. Apart from the 'Whats coming nooooooow' I just cant seem to tab that bit out. Really irritating.

  • Not sure of the name of the chord in that bit but its played x1021x, relative to the capo of course. Lovely and jazzy

  • It's standard tuning but a bit flattened. Just look at his hands and listen to the resulting notes.

    End of argument

  • You're wrong. The general consensus seems to be standar tuning but flat and with a capo.... which is correct

  • na. if he cut his dreads it would be horrific lol. :(

  • @skater09paul ya, all his skills are stored in his dreads. :P

  • @skater09paul Yeah, it's like Samson & Delihlah. All his musical prowess is drawn from those dreads.

  • NO WAY! No haircut! Where else are you going to find an Albino with dreads?? lol Faulkner rules, his last name reminds me of "War Games"

  • go to zamzar and put in this link. It'll convert it to MP3

  • thank you veery much. I didn't know about that site...it's so helpful (:

  • i'm listening to it nonstop! sooo damn good!

  • @maryabm wish i could play n sing like he does!

  • i dont really like this recourding, newton (or sam, his actual name,) was really couldent let louse like he usally does which is kinda puts som of the charm of his performances

  • how is that tuned slight sharp Dm????

    He's just using a capo on the 6th fret

  • how could you get the audio to this vid for an ipod or wateva.. love it

  • its in slight sharp dm an den a capo.. it makes it easier to sing..

  • You have no idea what your talking about! Theres no such thing as a 'Slight sharp Dm' Its played in EADGBE with a capo on 6th. Making the open tuning Bb. Not the Key.. The tuning.

  • put ur capo on the 6th fret an play along with this recordin in standard.. ITS absolutley not playd in standard live so suk it bitch

  • I have just done that. It sounds just the same. So you suck it.. Dumb fuck.

  • dats a load o balls u retard.. im not even havinthis argument wiv u.. it isnot played in standard live. he drops the tuning.... and it absolutley does not sound te same wen u play alongto dis vid so gargle my ballbag......

  • It's a Standard tuning........regardless of when it's played!

  • sensational.. real music fo rthe soul

  • For people wondering. Its played in the exact same tuning as the album version. and its played in E standard. Slightly sharp open Dm?? Lol

  • he aint playin it in standard.. the tunin way lower in the live versions..

  • Comment removed

  • this is just perfect

  • It's in a different key, but I think I slightly prefer this version to the album one.

    If this had all the fancy studio backing then it'd sound amazing.

  • errrr no mate its just standard tuning :P

  • He has ginger hair, he has pigment in his hair.

    So no he isn't.

  • look at his eyes and shit tho man.

  • I love you.

  • People are saying things about his appearance but this guy looks nothing short of beautiful when he has a guitar in his hands and a song in his mouth..

  • perfectly said

  • If there was any hope of music fixing all the worlds problems.. it would be his...

    Thanks Newton..

  • youtube really gota sort this lip sync thing badly :(

    but he is AMAZING

  • i listen to this song everyday without question :)

  • he is from ma dream :)

  • i can play this on my guitar but i couldn't even consider singing at the same time!! it's such a talent to be able to do both so well - the guy is awesome!

  • Yo. Me and my mates have just started a band and done a cover of better together. Its on my uploaded videos. When you listen, remember that we have only had 3 hours rehearsal ever before we recorded it. Or alternitivly, Type in 'josh's loft' and click on the top one. cheers :D
