Take Me To The Mardi Gras - Paul Simon Cover

[Ms41855]

I think I'm in love. <3

[BRENTCOMO]

Great cover and great guitar on a Great song. Here in South Louisiana the local radio stations play this often during carnival season.

[petersamuel1234]

@Daniel absolutely love your cover version better than the original ....is it available on ITunes how do I get a copy??

check out my videos also...petersamuel1234 

[windoor7]

You have done a great job on this song...one of my very favorites!

[bellesalive36]

love this, absolutely love it...

[KashmiriKaisar]

Well what can I say, a true gem of a discovery. I'm a bit of a perfectionist and very protective of most of the original artists' works of the early 70's and 80's but I have to say I can't fault your interpretation of this great song. You are a true and genuine talent and I wish you all the best for the future.

[007MICHELINE]

Really good, thanks from France ;and thanks to youtube too.

[squeezefan1972]

Awesome, although you're late on the chord change that's due half way through the "when I wear that starry crown" line... but that's just me bein picky - awesome rendition and I'm jealous!

[bellesalive36]

wow have have heard this before, beautiful. awesome voice mate

[bwfcjohn58]

wow what a talent lovin this . thanks john

[brassbando]

uh! only 8000 hits!! You are an undiscovered Youtube Talent!

[femininityplus]

You have a very unique, masculine, soulful voice...you should do something professional with it. It would be a shame if you were not exposed to many people. I would love to hear you sing a variety of types of music.

[BloodNGutts]

Happy Mardi Gras Dan WHO DAT!!!

[NewOrleansWoman]

@BloodNGutts this guy has great voice--and a great song ! thanks Alan !

[wlikojohnson]

muchas gracias! many thanks!

j.a.

[MsRickHarris]

You are very good! I never thought it possible to do this as well as the original but you did it!

[fricco1994]

Sony Vegas Pro8 is a really good software

[Mr0968]

You're the man. It is as good as the original. My hat is off to you!!

[chewbacca0901]

Very nice, although the lower key takes some getting used to. I think this will grow on me!

[jonathandavidr]

This is an awesome cover, voice and guitar. The only thing that could have made the video better would have been seeing it sung by a goblin ;)

Jonathan

[Adriantehone]

Wow man, that's awesome! :) You Ever thought about doing career with it?

[kinkontroversy]

another note: if you're ever in Bamberg, Bavaria, you should stop by @ brewery "SCHLENKERLA" and try some of their RAUCHBIER. It's not only amazing, it´s kinda addicting, cheers, Daniel making real good music, thx

[Ms41855]

Loved it then--love it still!

Perri in Amarillo

Faboulous interpretation of the Paul Simon classic!!!!!

Great song about a great city.

[BloodNGutts]

[blair227]

Yep been home 4 days and had to catch up on some projects.California was beautiful.

[BloodNGutts]

Yeah you right ! sing it brother !

[maslick]

awesome!!!!

[redmanmd]

any chance you can post a cover to the song "Say" by John Mayer?

[reliablebow]

What a great version friend. Old Paul sure wrote some great songs!

[LilyGipsy]

Beautiful!

[JLSTaylor]

Great rhythm on the guitar and smooth vocals as always. Great to hear from you again, Dan. ♬ Marina

[StopGenocideStartLuv]

shiver me timbers-

just came across you by accident-

i was suppose to go to bed 30minutes ago, but this is just lovely:) Thank you very much brother under the sun, you have now inspired me to play some tunes before i go to bed:)

[hgreg86]

Wow. I saw the title and said "Meh"-I was never fond of the orig (sorry Paul). You bring this song to life and add the soul that I think this song deserves. Well played. My only suggestion for video improvement: add cats. Thank you.

[hsbyl]

nice cover! thank you for posting :]

maybe you can tell me a few things about EQ

i cant put any videos up cus i do not know how to EQ yet :/

[Jhart320]

You hit another one out of the park! Love your music. I still think you should try some Cat Steven's songs.

[coomadoug]

good work there sir 5#######

[Windjhn]

i'm talking to a very lovely girl as i came across this, and the thought of holding her under the stars coupled with your voice just brought a tear to my eye.

bravissimo.

[terrieallred]

Man, it's great to hear you sing something new! I'm wearing out your old videos! What are you still doing on YouTube anyway? You should be selling tickets to hear your voice!I can't believe the record companies aren't fighting over you!

[GregThibeaux]

Glad to see that you're back at work, Dan. You sure can produce a lot of sound out of that one guitar. The voice is as smoothe as ever. Knock 'em dead in Jersey (if I'm remembering right) in October.

[jax1961]

Nice job Dan...I can dee you been practicing...Jax

[Brandtstifter1]

Hi Dan!

Altbier is nearly as smooth as your voice. Although this is not a song I would take with me to a forgotten island you've done a marvellous job on it!

Regards

Brandtstifter

[Je1505]

Your talent knows no bounds

Amazing! :)

[oldwhtman]

Good one, Sir. Audio sounds great. The black and white makes it look like a scene from an old Ozzie an Harriet episode.

[absongs]

yes, nice voice, warm, very good singing :-)

[keith3950]

You've out done yourself on this one. Keep it up.. what did you do to get the sound so perfect? Much better sound than some of the early ones.

[marcoacca]

Bravo!

[rhopen]

Terrific. I think I like your version as much as Simon's version. -Ron

[pedgeman]

loved this. Strange camera angle but vocally you absolutely nailed it

[sistaspooky1013]

You always have such great choice of covers :) I love the new and improved sound :)

5*ed and faved

[hollybird11]

wow that was great loved the gutar playing you have a lovely voice thanks for sharing x holly

[deadonspoton]

I don't like the song at all...but then I heard you sing it...and that changed everything. This was amazing. Where is your CD already, you are so much better then most people making albums right now. In case you didn't get it already...I LOVED this!!!

[debnlinda]

wow, you mic hella far away. but it sounds good, so i guess i'll try it. you're great btw.

[creaminitup]

Nice cover. You should upload videos more often. :)

[xxshoelacexx]

Yay new video! Amazing. <3

[AnimalFreak89]

AWESOME! :)

[bobostonepony]

jesus that was freakin fantastic!

[maddog5461]

Excellent!!! WHY aren't you in NASHVILLE???? U could be going places!!!! Laterz, Len P

[jabrother]

You can go places with country music but as a city, Nashville really sucks! L-ville is a much more interesting city to hang out in.

[king7wood]

Enjoyed this a lot!

[cefdad]

You are in a class all by yourself Daniel.

[Johnfern99]

Great cover!

[rockandrollwaltzer]

Excellent job!
