  • A very, very good version, great voice!

  • Forgive my criticizing but, I think you would sound better without the echo.

    Still good though, keep it up. Wanna hear more of this. Watching and waiting.

  • you really do sound remarkably like him

  • an outstanding talent, let's have some more jake gems, Apples.

  • I agree. Picking is just more suited to Jake's songs, than strumming.

  • urgh strumming.. fingerpicking!!!! Surely Thackrays genius was in his classical style.

  • Great work again. Get a classical. And who are Sheffield Wednesday? A netball team?

  • Amazing! Love all the Thackray covers, your voice sounds great-what a talent. Extraordinary music taste for someone your age! Checked out your Johnny Cash as well. Brilliant version of 'Hurt'. Please post more stuff

  • Hold my hands up, take your word for it that your not miming, very sorry ! Keep up the good work Mr bigconman !

  • Sorry everyone, what a real "conman" he is ? Yeah, & he`s not very good at miming either ? As Ian Dury used to say, "What a waste !"

  • hi there! I like to take comments like yours as a real compliment as it is in fact me singing. What would I be miming to? I admit the lip sync isnt very good because its recorded on my phone camera. Check out my other videos. I assure you its me singing.

  • great! Good voice, good playing and a great tribute.

  • Thanks for posting. I watched this twice on the spin. Great tribute to a man that may well have died before you were born !

  • Very good indeed. Excellent performance of a lovely Jake song, done in a more comtemporary style. Well done mate!

  • I love this one, thanks for posting. Any chance of your version of "Fine Bay Pony" coming along soon?

  • Great stuff ........a rare talent ! Good luck for the future.....Farny Snr !

  • Quite moving to see the young 'uns carrying on the torch. :)

  • A great performance.

    You've got the voice off well without "slavishly" copying Jake. I play these songs myself, in my front room to an audience of nobody! It makes you realise how good a musician Jake was, when you try to sing them and fingerpick like he used to.

  • yeah but he was a legend...

  • good version son. I wold say you need to go for that finger picking rather than the chords.

    Jkae had an odd style of playing.

  • ur actually amazing. i adore jake thackray and its gr8 that im not the only teenager who likes him! he's hilarious!!! ur voice is so similar to his, do u think you could do Family Tree? it makes me laugh lol xxx keep it up xxx

  • Excellent - the man himself would be proud of that

  • N1 mate.

  • Good voice but poor acoustics. Well done mate .. good to hear JT's songs sung by one so young !!

  • you sound better than Jake mate

  • lovley! love it. would you be able to attempt 'The Hair of the Widow of Bridlington'?

  • So good. So good. What a voice! There are so many gorgeous Jake songs - please learn more and do them for us too.

  • man, i'm so jealous of your voice

  • Good stuff, love this one.

  • Good one matey.Nice to see de yoot down wit de Jake!

  • Very good - Jake's songs never get old.

  • You need to sort the video camera out but otherwise very well done for doing a good job on a hard to sing song.

    Keep them coming! :)
