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
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.
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.
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
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.

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

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

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 !"

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

Jkae had an odd style of playing.

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! :)
