I have watched this video so many times over the years .....its not 1 of the best Better than Ezra covers....its 1 of the best covers out there by anyone!!
Derek was my brother. This video is what I turn to when I need to see his face and hear his voice. Thank you to everyone who posted... If you have questions or stories you'd like to share, please find me on facebook; Shaina Greser (smgreser@buffalo.edu)....... Derek I love you so much, it was good living with you. You are with me always.
OMG I noticed that he responded to my comment(I was looking at my old comments) and now I come back here years later and I see comments saying he is dead. I googled "derek hans greser" which is his user name and I find obituraries saying he died dec 2010 at age 28. But that would mean he is 25 in this video wow he looked like a teen.
I didn't know you, but your cover of Better Than Ezra is far better than the original.. I've listen to your cover for years, and it still puts a smile on my face.. I am so sad to hear about his death and i send all my thoughts to his family.. Rest in peace, Derek..
I have had this video saved to my favorites for years. I listen to it frequently. Thank you for sharing the news of his death I can see how this video would be a fitting tribute to his family. May I ask how he passed away?
My dear friend Derek passed away on Dec 16th 2010 he will be greatly missed by His Family, Friends, and Me this video means a lot especially to his family so no negative comments please.

I love this song, but all the chord sites I have found have sucked. What chords were you playing, because yours sounded far better than anything I have found so far.
Despite what some people say, I think your character and demeanor set you aside from other performers on you-tube. You couple that with your solid voice, and great interpretation of the song you've covered and you get an A+ (In my books at least)
dude, i have watched this vid like four times lol. i must say you do an excellent job playin this. i learn alot of songs just by watching them be played. good job dude. your very talented.
I loved it! It is the best cover of this song on here so far! Amazing voice and guitar skills! On the other side, you seemed a bit cocky to me but confident. You were really confident! But you need to tune the cockiness a little bit. I bet all the other girls watching this were gooly-eyed over you! I know I was, I couldn't help but be gooly-eyed over you while watching this!! It was really good! Amazing voice, amazing guitar skills, cute as hell, and confident!! Not a good job but great!!!
I had dinner with LANCE BASS we live in Orlando!....He doesn't look anything like Lace Bass... Lance has a skinny face and this dudes face is kind of plump. In fact the only resembling features that they share is that they are both white....lol
dude i have to say that you did a really cover of my favorite band. try doing "I Do" I think that you would do good with that one. and the faces you made were great because the song is so sarcastic. Great Job Man
thanks! that was gonna bug me forever... I knew he looked a bit like one of those boy band guys but couldn't think of who it was. Lance Bass- gay or supergay?

First, let me say that I have watched this video probably 20 times now. I absolutely love it - the opening with "... and it's good" is priceless. I happened to like the facial expressions - it gave this performance a singularity that is missing from a lot of acoustic covers on youtube.
I learned from watching this and I really think you should post more videos, man. I keep checking back to see if you've done more but there's only this one. I'll subscribe - just tape more!
I know it isn't BTE. What I meant was that this cover is not as good as the original but that it is the best cover of this song I've heard on YT thus far. Guess I could have explained better.
Wow great cover, vocals are excellent but your facial expressions when u look in the camera make me wanna punch u in the face sorry dude other then that i dug it:^)

it was, ahem, good, but i could do without the facial expressions. also, while you do have a good voice, this
song had no range - you sung it all in one key pretty
much one key. i dont know if thats how its supposed
to be but it just gets a little monotonous after a while.
