I tried to learn this on guitar before I moved overseas and I used your video for instruction.. Soo good bro.. Can't believe that your not famous yet!
I dont comment on these very often. Im a musician and am very picky about what i like. But i can honestly say that this is the best cover on youtube! Very nice!
You have a great voice and you can sing any genre smoothly. I hope you are a recording artist someday, cuz' I feel like you would do all music... and honestly this day in age someone with a voice like you needs to be somewhat involved in rock anyways.
@franklala haters lol. obviously the guitar is not as crisp as the real recording, but this is live. and he is singing at the same time, this is past amazing.
Check out these two Irish dudes cover of this song, its pretty sweet....i actually challenge you not to enjoy it!!! :) just type in "im yours cover alter ego"
Bro, why are you still doing youtube vidz, there are morons out there who think they're singers making millions and you would blow them fools out the water. Go get your contract already
your all telling him to go on american idol, i think he knows what hes doing dont you lot, maybe he dont want poxy press u get with that crap. keep doing what your doing derek mate. you are quality :)
@PrettyBoyReid Dude, Why the fuck are you talking about justin bieber? Why do you need to insult someone to tell someon he's good ? Justin Bieber has an amazing voice, he was just as him before Usher found out about him; Making videos on youtube. You know what they say? Only reals recognize reals, I guess you don't have anyway musical talent then. Both are good, k thx.
I just gotta say this, i've watched some of your videos and noticed how you try to imitate the singer who did the songs from the begining. Id say you are good but personally i wanna hear your "sound".
OMG DUDE!!!!!! u are awsem!!!! u are the best man! i agree with @HemenwayArts you should defently go to american idole but i have only one question can you please please i beg on the ground give me the chords of how to play it or even anyone else that can give me the chords it would be very helpful. Thanks for all the helpers and again man you are AWSEM!!!!!!!!!!!
This cover you do right here doesnt sound at all like the original. Wich is really good, beacuse thats what a cover is all about. So i agree with FlipMollc (fuck off assghole.) And with HemenwayArts, go to american idol. I'd vote for ya :).
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
To be cool (Jason Mraz) is one thing but to fake cool (Derek Cate) is another. Sorry buddy but it looks and sounds like you're more about putting on a show than you are about singing a song.
HAHA for reals dude your retarded and dont know the first thing about how to put emotion in a track so dont speak unless you truly know what your talking about... this dude is good for real... if anyone wanna still talk crap about him then post a reply to the video showing that you can do it better... but you probably cant do that because all the people talking smack have NO TALENT so stop acting like your simon and continue flipping burgers at McDonalds and just leave the internet alone lol
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
youre right... he does... kinda like the knob your mother was gagging on while your crippled retard father sputtered out just enough splooge from his sorry little dick to concieve you.... yeah, he looks alot like that knob... but he's not black
This is even more of a musical and lyrical smile than the original!!! Keep them coming big guy!
