"Psycho Killer" - Talking Heads (from Stop Making Sense)

[MrValeyard]

Right on man, this is a great cover. Super excited right now.

[TheScotland1967]

mmmmmm yeeeaahhh . . . . pretty bad and guitar isnt that hard to play . . . so

[drcarico]

@TheScotland1967 Are all the Scottish as pleasant as you?

[okstereohead]

I stopped listening when you got the first chord wrong. Sorry but it's obviously a minor chord.

[pallet3473]

you are wrong about the first chord being a minor. a lot if people play it that way but it wasn't written that way. However, the A is minor in the chorus

[okstereohead]

@pallet3473 In the Stop Making Sense version of which this is a cover (see video title) it is minor, but I accept being a little harsh as the studio version is major. I'm just more familiar with the SMS version.

[t3trash]

Nice Job..:)

[Freak0id]

Very nice job! Great guitar playing as well.

[rasta1982]

ThanX! I just did a version of This Must Be the Place.

[prayfortruejustice]

Excellent job! Best I have seen or heard -- I was really hoping you were gonna get the e-string buzz at the end... work on that, ok ;)

btw, RON Paul 2012!

[rasta1982]

Ha. True, I totally forgot about that buzz at the end.

Check out my new vids for a cover of This Must Be The Place

[TheTypicalmike]

Dude this is simply awesome...I've heard many cover versions of this song and this is by far one of my favorites.

[rasta1982]

Way to go and make my night. Talking Heads are one of my favorite groups ever. I just did a Radiohead cover last night. All my vids are arranged into playlists too.

Word!

[jdust6502]

I like what you have done here.

[rasta1982]

I like that you like what I have did here.

[Saahrr]

Oeh I really like your cover =)!

[rasta1982]

Appreciated!

[lordbyronblack]

Quite good, especially taking into account the rather unforgiving medium. You'd sound great in a theatre with a proper sound system.

[rasta1982]

Hey, thanks! These cover vids have dropped off as I've been working with other bands for online marketing and community management. You can check my band though: thegents()bandcamp()com

[sdcinc]

Great cover - as they say on Idol - "you made it your own".

[jay2bird776]

what happened to the fuckin original version???? O_o

[rasta1982]

It's a fusion between the live and original... Go watch Stop Making Sense.

[TheBunnySensation]

ouch

[hobojoe92]

tab, please

[fedragl]

muy bien... tiene merito..

[ItsMeThatKoolGuy]

Your terrible!!!

[turdcoat]

RON PAUL

[krackmusik]

[mtlsoul]

[JSdodgem37]

RON PAUL!

YEAH!

[EdeglauderRock10]

[Islington2000]

BRAVO

[MuskokaWebDesign]

RON PAUL ... wicked.

[Felicityfoo]

You are quality !!!.....Never tire of watching you play this track x

[rasta1982]

Nice. I've been working on my band lately and haven't been able to get as many vids up... But mastering the album as we speak.

[EdeglauderRock10]

Desafinado!!!

[arbist]

ya ves!!!

[whotheFxx]

insultcomic is a piece o s

[whotheFxx]

I like your guitar

[SilverbackArtistMgmt]

It's a Mitchell... I think it cost me like $300.

[thedonkeyman57]

Dude this is amazing, i like this so much better than the original version!

[rasta1982]

Really? Damn. ThanX.

[youlittlepieceofshit]

[insultcomic]

[Sh1t2u]

uhm.....yer dumb. gtfo

[darthraive]

Thank you

[02175359]

I like it

[basslinger]

I like it

[darthraive]

Terrible voice. Horrible acoustic interpretation. A mockery of a classic.

[Sh1t2u]

uhm.....yer dumb gtfo

[inflambulent]

Great interpretation, dude.

[rasta1982]

Very much appreciated. David is one of my favorite geniuses.

[14Jester88]

Damn dude, nice. Sounds good.

[Sandycat1]

wow...amazing! I had a huge smile on my face watching this! Well done! You'd definitely have the crowds rockin' with a good back-up band behind you...fabulous!!

[rasta1982]

Many thanX from San Diego! Talking Heads are one of my favorites. You can definitely hear their influence on so many of these indie power pop bands today.

[stand49]

brilliant ,

[rasta1982]

Appreciated ;)

[wordslikebugger]

Cool version, although it's an A minor in the verses, not major. Great voice and riffing!

[rasta1982]

I think one of the chords is A minor and the rest are A? Whatever. David Byrne! Have you heard him on the new NASA song???

[phoebusphoibos69]

this is mighty guitar playing dude ! love it :)

[rasta1982]

ThanX. One of my favorite artists so had to give it justice.

[amerboy22]

fantastic dude!! keep it up

[rasta1982]

LOVE THE DISCUS TANK!!! I've had two consecutive Red Devil tanks so I appreciate your dedication! Damnable bastards they are...

[voilaviola]

i was totally waiting for the oo ooo o oo o ooooooo part to see how you did it... decent job.. i've done the song on all synths

[puchalinda]

watch your high tones :)

[rasta1982]

Understandable :)

[FlowFighter21]

agreed, but no ones ever gonna sound the same. i see covers as a chance to put your own twist to songs. this song is tight and you killed it.

[wegotmarriedinafever]

good job bro! best cover ive seen.

[rasta1982]

ThanX homie. I am actually practicing it at the moment for this open mic tonight. You simply reaffirmed my song selection.

"Hotter than a pepper sprout..."

[skabaconska]

byrns lives in my hometown, ive seen an impromptu tom tom club show nobody knew about happen in a coffee shop amazing

good job

[rasta1982]

ThanX bro. Currently baked and drinking beers with bro watching Stop Making Sense. LOL. On "Take Me to the River." You should remember to bring your camera to the next impromtu performance!

[skabaconska]

lool i didnt know sinse it was impromptu lol

[damosanchex]

Good work mate.

[rasta1982]

Appreciated.

[MiaVercetti]

As Jimmy Cliff once sang, "Keep on Rockin'"! Well,lots of people sang that (Neil Young comes to mind). Anyhow, nice work & tribute to an all-time classic! I hope this isn't a triple post--tried twice before, but nothing showed up! Great acoustic guitar!

[MiaVercetti]

Really NICE guitar work! Who'da thunk you could get THAT much sound from an acoustic?! Now, if you can only sound as insane as Byrne, you'll be...well, insane! Just kidding. Keep on playing and ignore the trolls under the bridge. They're just constipated, anyway. Heh-heh.

[dezbrin]

i love anyone who's not afraid to show their talent, keep on playin

[rasta1982]

Appreciated. I'll keep playing if people keep listening.

[revolutionday1]

You're a gay ho-mo-sex-u-al.

[rasta1982]

It's easy to be a critic. Now go fuck yourself, you'll get more pussy that way.

I can keeps it real too.

[revolutionday1]

I wish you were here, sitting next to me, because I'd punch you right in your goofy face.

[rasta1982]

I seriously doubt that would be the case. I get along with everyone who doesn't act like a dick for no apparent reason, at which point I have no problems reciprocating hostilities. You got some good song selections in your favorites. Have a good one.

[revolutionday1]

Of course I do! Because I have good taste, which is why I said what I said. And while you were busy trying to properly pronounce the word "reciprocate", I'd hand you the rest of your teeth.

[rasta1982]

You talk a lot of talk, but your empty words of aggression over the internet are pathetic. Having good taste means nothing if you're a narrow minded prick.

[TheOneandOnlyJoelish]

A little late - but well said ;)

[Touristcl]

Eres lo maximo brother!

[baldyman123]

would be nice if David was watching, i think hed like it...nice job mate

[rasta1982]

Last month's WIRED mag had 2 great articles with David. Once he's interviewing Thom Yorke and the other he explains the current state of the recording industry. Brilliany.

[paisleypower30]

Talking heads are great! Nice cover!

[tatooselhefe]

i love yours covers man

[rasta1982]

ThanX Tatoo... Good to hear from you. Send me your email so I can show you some new songs.
