rarely have i heard a cover of such an iconic song be at once true to the original in its execution as well as a stunning reinterpretation. if billy corgan has heard this I'll wager he's proud.
At this moment, I have three tabs open: The Civil Wars tour date, a cart with a ticket to see them in Louisville, Kentucky... and this video. I was hedging on seeing them because I know I shouldn't spend the money, but I also won't have a chance to see them this close to where I live in months. Maybe a year.
This video didn't just tip me over to one side, it threw me off the fence completely. Ticket: purchased.
@TheRealDannyE I'm so glad you found the video! Thanks for watching! You will not regret buying that ticket. They are absolutely amazing live. Prepare to be spellbound!
If that is a Godin...I picked up one just like it at Guitar Center a year ago or so and played it for 10 minutes or so...absolutly fell in love with it....the action, looks, and sound were fantastic...as soon as my ship comes in I would like to get one.
Brilliant cover! I just LOVE this duo. The most amazing voices to come around in so long. This is my favorite Smashing Pumpkins song too, by the way. Excellent!!
These two can make any song their own. Love this song, but have to say it speaks to me more when these two sing it. I could listen to them sing anything.
I like to think that when they play covers, they don't just play the cover, but almost re-write the entire song to suit their style. That's what makes their covers so fantastic and moving.
I know the possibilities of you guys even remotely reading this is infintismal, but i just want to say directly to you, that you are my motivation to keep up this bull shit rat race , your love for music(each other ) makes it all worth it
@barlowgirl61087 We already do cover them. As a matter of fact my wife and I have been doing their music for 4 months now... so yeah... its already happening.
It's a Gibson ES-125...around £2,000.

@rhtchilipepper I suppose you'd call (010020) a Gsus4, but that would be (310023); i guess it's close enough. Thanks for posting this though!

I have never agreed that any one can truly do any cover better than the original simply because...well, its not original....but now I take that back.

@yobhsiFehT I believe the guitar is a Gibson ES-150. What year Im not sure, but probably the sixties.
