  • are you arron or are you roy ? roy because arron cant play this song on guitar watch his hands hmmmmmm suspect eh

  • @fasteddie925 This song is so easy to play Aaron could play it blindfolded and one hand behind his back ;)

  • Aaron should cover "Curtis Low" By Skynard!!

  • no one can't not sing along to plush ;D

  • Very nice cover. Aaron did it very well. Only Aaron Lewis and Shaun Morgan can do a very good covers more than the original. Great.

  • I love how aaron lewis can cover any song and turn it into gold, but if you try to cover a aaron lewis/staind song, you better put your money where your mouth is because not many people can do that well.

  • Aaron can cover just about anything! Have you seen the clip where he sings Puff the Magic Dragon? lol I listen to him and the world disappears for a few minutes! Thanks Aaron! =)

  • they are playing the outro wrong but it still sounded good

  • @99070208 cover isnt suppose to be exactly the same...he threw the Aaron Lewis twist to it!

  • guess theres 4 fags on youtube........

  • @clewis0608 no just four fags that watched this video

  • i was at this show. great show...

  • Man, I miss the 90's and high school!

  • Aaron's covers of grunge-era songs are FANTATSTIC. 

  • one of his best covers. his voice fits this song perfectly ! I LOVE AARON LEWIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • this is an amazing cover - i <3 both lewis and weiland - misssssss the 90s too

  • 90's music is the best

  • @acardiac78 Right next to the 60's and 70's

  • i wish I could slap all of these f*ckin chicks screaming. STFU and listen to the music. Terrible video. IMO

  • Amazing Voice, who needs more than that and a guitar!

  • like how in the beginning he played a c, stopped for a bit to regroup lol Nice to see even the best mix up once in a while!

  • this is an awesome accoustic of plush I love Stone Temple Pilots and Aaron Lewis

  • Yeah right, you actually think scott weiland is more talented than aaron lewis, you're nuts, lewis is the best acoustic vocalist of our time, hands down.

  • Yeah right, you actually think scott weiland is more talented than aaron lewis, you're nuts, lewis is the best acoustic vocalist of our time, hands down.

  • everything is good except for the people in the background need to shut the fuckup and listen to the music

  • cant wait to see him next Sunday at Westbury..so amped

  • Aaron and I seem to have the same taste in music judging by what he likes to cover. I dig this, good cover really

  • Love me some Aaron Lewis but there is no way in hell he is better than Scott Weiland . No comparison actually.

  • I heard this on the radio in my small town and i was wondering why it sounded so much better than Weiland

  • AMAZING... is all I have to say.....

  • I like turtles.

  • Aaron puts Weiland to shame with this...but I suppose it is a matter of opinion...love em both anyway

  • Cake

    

  • Comment removed

  • Doesnt hold a candle to Scott Weiland... Good cover regardless.

  • sorry but this doesnt even come anywhere to even being close to the headbangers ball version that STP did.. that performance is possibly the greatest live acoustic performance of all time

  • By the way, Timbaland is a joke, and so is 99.9% of all that music.. Rap or Hip Hop or Pop music, whatever you call it. All I call it is worthless.

  • Haha I just spend a good ten minutes of my life reading all those Metalstryke vs. the ANGRY Staind Defenders and I gotta say, it's worth the price of admission. That's the great thing about the internet, you can bash in the hornet's nest all day long, and never get stung, until some hacker traces your IP address to your house and rapes you... But that's a different story.. What a hilarious string of posts.

  • @Ultiman54 lol, i just did the same thing and read ur post. fucking hilarious shit!

  • @Ultiman54  i did the same . fucking hilarious, well said.

  • god this guy is a fucking genius when it comes to acoustic play

  • ha aaron has water and the other dude look,s like he has a beer

  • Aaron Lewis is an amazing and powerful vocalist. He doesn't have to play.

  • This is epic.

    Enough said.

  • FIJI huh?

  • Yeah Aaron!! It's an awesome song

  • gracias Aaron..!

  • i miss grunge!!

  • mmm... band, guitar, whatever, him and that voice can show up anytime and sing anything to me... don't even care much if he sings 'rainbow connection' or gets paid to sing me the latest advertising jingles... long as he shows up with that voice and sings to me... yeah, that'll do lol <3

  • Aaron Lewis wrote every single one of Staind's songs. Not only the Lyrics but the Music too! He's a classically trained artist. He can read, write, and even understand music then any of us could even want to. He covers songs he loves and out of respect to his band when he's not on tour with them. BUT he does play some of his own songs cuz they are HIS songs litterally!

  • He plays songs from other groups that he admires and is influenced by. Basically, it's a tribute to those other bands, and plus, he's a performer? He's pleasing the crowd. That's what performers do. I

  • to the troll,

    Maybe Aaron doesn't play Staind songs while not on tour with Staind out of respect for his bandmates? Also what chknfaqr said. Get the fuck off of my internets

  • does he have an acoustic compilation kinda cd?

  • Metalstryke you smell like cheese XD

  • with kegman all day, if you dont like his covers keep your fucking mouth shut and move along to another video

  • real artists pay respects to other family artists with tribute covers you fuck tards. anyway don't hate. we all know aaron lewis takin a shit sounds better than you can sing. If you don't like this cover or his alice in chains and for that matter tool cover keep it to yourself. That motherfucker masters every song he does. FUCK YOU MORONS!!

  • damn, kegman - ment to give u a thumbs up...computers hate me lol anyways sorry, thought what u wrote was well said :)

  • aaron please stop covering other peoples shit, please.. He's covered Pearl Jam and others, you just dont got that voice buddy, Staind was alright for a depressing 90's band, but please stop covering STP, you'de be doing a great thing if you just stopped

  • and hey Metalstryke, go fuck yourself, k?

  • ok crotch sniffer, what your gonna tell me this is anywhere as good as scott weiland doing it then your fucking retarded

  • hey douche bag no one ever said it was better than the original. stupid bitch dont watch aaron if you dont like him simple as that too hard for you i guess. fuckin clown

  • You sound like one jelious bitch,

  • dude quit being a crotch sniffer, this dude has his own band yet he's always covering someone else''s songs, not here and there but always, i guess his own songs arent good enough then right??

  • @Metalstryke

    you clearly can't grasp the concept of an already accomplished musician going to small venues to play songs he loves and give the fans/audience a chance to dictate their own show. It's called being a god damn performer.

    Fucking troll, get the fuck off the internet

  • dude go suck a camel cock you no good cock sniffing piece of shit, aaron lewis sucks 12 different asses to, his band was a never was, thats why hes performing other peoples songs

  • @Metalstryke your an idiot dood. u dont know shit cuz ure not a real musician.

  • @perdedor3571 i guarantee im more of a musician than your sorry ass. Aaron Lewis is a second rate musician, that had a second rate band. Its been awhile is the ongoing intro chords from Soundgardens Black Hole Sun, i can keep going buddy

  • @Metalstryke really what do you play then? btw i can completely understand where aaron is comoning from. hes just giving a tribute to his favorite musicians. hes already had a band. a great band. he as a muscian had an urge to have an acoustic tour where he covered alot of bands. so what? whats wrong with that? another thing my personal opinion is that you are an asswhole who will never get m point. soooo i am going to not respond to whatever yhou say.

  • @Metalstryke btw i may reply when you post a vid of you playing your suposed instrument. let me see that your "more of a musician that your sorry ass." im waiting bitch.

  • @perdedor3571 honetsly man i dont post shit here on youtube asshole, and i wont fro some scrublover like you, aaron lewis is mediocrity, in ten years from now who is gonna care about him or Staind, who even listens to there shit, your here watching him do covers

  • @Metalstryke lmao off course you wont because you dont play anything. you are not a musician. your opinion is hearby null and void. cmon dood you say aaron lewis is mediocrity? he has a band know by im sure millions of people. they had hit songs. can you say that? no you cant. quit beeing a hater man

  • @Metalstryke p.s. i never made out aaron lewis or stained to be the fuckin greatest in the world ever. its not like people in music class are going to be studying him 100 years from now. but im pretty sure people will still know staind 10 years from now...btw your a tool lmao

  • @perdedor3571 nah buddy you just had nothing to sasy cause you know im right, Staind is garbo

  • @Metalstryke you sound like a twelve year old lol. im right because i am! and your wrong because im always right! is pretty much all your argument consists of lol. you are going to have a hard time in colledge english lmao. and how can you say i have nothing to say? i just wrote you two lengthy comments. dont be pissed because i exposed you as a fraud.

  • @perdedor3571 how am i fraud?? your an idiot sucking on someones right nut who gives a hoot about you, and is not even someone relevant in music anymore, your pathetic like a i said your a scrubsucker, i guess second rate follow second rate

  • @Metalstryke your a fraud because you say your a musician but you really arent. and im not going to let you get my goat go ahead and say what you want about me as far as im concerend ive already one this argument lmao. i wont be responding to anymore of your comments fa real tthis time. have a nice life. =]

  • @perdedor3571 dude i could smoke you and aaron lewis at singing he's second rate and a horrible cover artist, yeah you one the argument no buddy i won you ignorant fool, at least learn how to spell won not the number one idiot

  • @Metalstryke =]

  • @Metalstryke prove it... prove your voice is better than aarons... back up your shit talking...

  • @TheSavingStrangers well for one i got a four aoctave vocal range, i can sing ranges from STP, to Judas Priest, Journey, Aaron is a monotone singer, he's got no range

  • @Metalstryke post a video

  • @Metalstryke actually type in Aaron Lewis as Axl on the search box lol

  • @Metalstryke and yet he is a multi platinum artist, and you fight with people on youtube.

  • @deelong4002 Dude lady gaga is a multi platinum artist, so was mc hammer, and others, that doesnt mean they dont suck balls and that theyre not crap, theres a lot of shit out there that sells just like this

  • @Metalstryke Dude i looked at your channel on here. You have a Timbaland song as a favorite! Your opinion is now thus null and void in any comment on which music in this world is good music. You're a fucking queer. / thread

  • @deelong4002 dude so what if i have a timbaland song you fuckin foogazi, i also have an STP, Van Halen, Rob Halford, priest, so fucking what, how is that relevant to sorry ass Aaron Lewis you fuck mook

  • @Metalstryke It's not relevant to Aaron Lewis. It's relevant to the fact that you listen to shitty music, so you're opinion isnt valid. I believe i said all of this in my last post? Can you read? And what the fuck is a fuck mook and a foogazi? Are you from the U.K or something?

  • @deelong4002 i just dont stay stuck on one thing, i can give credit where credit is due, im not some foogazi like you that stays stuck to one form of music, thats why you were so quick to point out timbaland, hes a good producer, your some cock fag whos stuck on one thing, and stuck on shitwads like aaron lewis

  • @Metalstryke dude shut the fuck up already!if he's such a bad singer then why the fuck are you wasting your time on this video.nobody gives a fuck about your opinion!you say your a better singer then him,but while your claiming lies he's touring the world and making millions of dollars and what are you doing?talking shit on youtube.oh and by the way timbaland is a bullshit fucking producer,his career went down the toilet when aaliyah died because she was the only talent he's ever known.

  • @motillaman4life ......thank you for the comment...I'm tired of the disc jockey shit talk too..maybe they'll look in the mirror and realize that the only thing they can do is make up for their insecurities..

  • @motillaman4life man that Timberland Dude is funny. Look i'm a Big Staind fan. Comparing Staind to Dace \ pop to Hip Hop is just Dumb. I Grew up on Real Shit Like Rock N Roll. Only Hip Hop i Listen to is Eminem, Lil Wayne,Drake,and Little Bit of the Old School Stuff. But man Rock N Roll and Staind will Always Be Better. even though i listen to hip-hop. i Manly Listening to Rock. People in this world can just be dumb and have no tune or hear what good music is.

  • @Metalstryke You obviously don't know what your talking about.

  • @LedxZeppelinx sure i do, hes a whack ass singer in a nver was band

  • @Metalstryke

    you are a joke. post a video or something, back up your shit talking....o wait...you sound alot bigger n badder over the internet huh? haha JOKE

  • still lmao at crotch sniffer

  • @Metalstryke YOU PIECE OF SHIT! I WILL GOUGE OUT YOUR EYES AND SKULL FUCK YOU

  • @Linebacker2011 your as original as Aaron Lewis himself, taking lines out of American History X, just like he can't stop being a cover artist

  • its definitely not mike

  • like it!!....like it alot!!!

  • incredible song. and i can't imagine anyone else covering this other than aaron lewis.

  • he is playing music!!!! Not doing pop circus shit!!!!He dosen't need to be show off!!!!

  • Man...I have no idea why I wrote that or even thought it. Bizarre comment from me.

  • cool!!

  • i'll see aron october 10th and i seen the covers acoustic show. he went out on a limb with that tour and had fun it was kick ass.until the staind and creed tour arrvies i'll jam right here

  • nice cover, Aaron Lewis is a great talent, between him and Brent Smith of Shinedown, we have two of the greatest rock singers of our time, in their prime.

  • @dustin2580  - smith is not bad, but he's limited... he's really not that great... not even close to Lewis in terms of talent.

  • And all you crazy people don't forget about Cornell... I think Lewis is 2nd to Cornell !

  • who's the other dude?

  • @salmon020 i think its mike from staind

  • It's like a dream, AL singinG STP!!

  • awesome version man!

  • Aaron Lewis fucking rules.

  • Fucking sweet.

  • Can I say that nothing bothers me more when Im listening to music than when some jerkoff cant sing the right words when singing along. Just like the crowd in this video. JUST STFU AND LISTEN ALREADY ! I mean did you go to sing or listen to someone talented? I know its petty and rude but that thats how I see it.

  • Ohhh it is sooo good to hear it

  • There's not a single other person on the planet that can sing Plush the way Scott Weiland does. No one else has the right frequency and intonation.

  • Aaron lewis has the best voice in rock, he is one of the only ones that actually SINGS, not many have the raw talent he does. Wieland is good but his voice went to shit after all of the drugs

  • i agree. so freakn true ;0}

  • dont mean aaron can do this song justice scott wrote this so therefore he does it the best period

  • What's nice is that he can scream too if he needs too. Kind of like Howard Jones from Killswitch Engage.

  • i had the same thought

  • you are right.

  • who cares if he didnt play?? his amazing voice is the main reason why he was even there

  • mmmm about aaron guitar skills comments .. i think that he just didnt remenber the chords , ive been in solo concerts and he always make mistakes in the songs , dont get me wrong i love how he covers them , but in my opinion is not that he is not that good at guitar, is just that he doesnt remeber the fukin chords ...... i think your mind would explode if you try to remember all the chords of all the covers that he plays in his solo shows lol !!!!

  • that and.. a mixture between being soo high that he doesnt care.. and the fact that he gets really into the lyrics.. which is why hes such an amazing singer!

  • haha,right on, not to mention his songs that he already knows and must remember..people fuck up,shit happens,

  • why is aaron covering so much?

  • He has gone on SOLO acoustic tours for a few years now.. Hes doing them this winter.. He does Staind/Cover songs..

  • This is a great cover of STP. And now that Scott Weiland's voice is shot from all the drugs, it's nice that someone can do the song and give it a great vocal pitch.

  • fucking awesome! staind is fucking amazing and this is a really good fucking cover by aaron lewis

  • Morning, I know you copied used your second comment for emphasis...but come on.

  • haha i was really interestd to see if aaron could play this on the guitar :) funny he couldnt, he rules, but doesn have much guitar technique.

  • Did you actually watch? Mike played most of the song. Aaron pretty much only did the intro.

  • Thats not mike... It's Aarons guitar tech Chris Ballin (if thats how you spell his last name lol)

  • Video's not the best quality. Either way, the guy said Aaron didn't have good guitrar technique, when he's not even playing through most of the song.

  • thats my point!! he couldnt (so he didnt) play it. and no that is not mike. LOL

  • That's MY point. He's not the lead guitarist in the band. So of course he's not going to be fucking Slash. His instrument is his voice. That being said, he's not a terrible guitarist by any means. And I don't see how you can devise that he is from this video. Provide other examples of his poor "guitar technique" in songs that require substantial guitar playing. The point is, he's a singer who also plays guitar. Not vice versa.

    And yes, I see now that that is not Mike. Shitty monitor. Sue me.

  • you dumbass....... aaron is a RHYTHM guitarist being that this cover is ALL RHYTHM he should be able to play this, but he cannot, takes too much technique. in fact you see him start to, but then he falls off. hes a great singer, not great at guitar is all im saying. he himself will tell you he is not good a guitar. and dont blame the monitor, you should be able to tell thats not mike even if it were broadcast from fuzzy black and white tv. you dont know staind, moron.

  • You're exactly right, I don't know Staind. I own every album, but I don't know Staind. I've got their MTV Unplugged DVD which is nearly impossible to find, but I don't know Staind. Just because I glanced at the guy in the video and mistook him for someone else, I don't know Staind. Ya caught me I'm a fraud. I pretend to be a huge fan of bands just for attention. Busted. Jack off. I said he wasn't a great guitarist. You just can't judge that from this video where he hardly plays guitar.

  • a. that dvd is not hard to find

    b. i say you dont know staind because not only did you think that was mike, but you are arguing that aaron has guitar skills

    c.  hes "hardly " playing guitar on this cover, because he simply cannot

    d. owned.

  • dude both you guys make good points but what both of you guys fail to realize is that "Arguing online is like running in the special olympics; even if you win you're still retarded." so assuming that's true let's drop it already alright guys? go back to reality...you guys online too much

  • Not all are "retarded" some are just crippled!

  • whats a cripple doing running???? you just proved wasssabi right!!!

  • hahahahahahaha scubba fails big time.

  • STP is back together which is awesome

  • this is a cool cover i like it

  • yah guys this is a staind cover of plush not an AIC or soundgarden vid...arguing on youtube is like winning in the special olympics, no matter what your still retarded

  • That's actually pretty funny.

  • cornell isn't even close to layne staley.... period

  • yeap. PERIOD. gud u didnt say full stop haha

  • cool.

  • WOW!!! soooo awesome!

  • keep haten on aaron lewis u pussys. stick to ur scott staph.

  • its scott weiland nice try though

  • hahah he messes up on guitar twice so he just stops n sings

  • why r u all talkin about layne staley on here Aaron lewis is obviously doing a cover of a great stp song so shut the fuck up about AIC when this video has nothing to do with AIC except the fact that Aaron does some covers of AIC but this is not one of them

  • i know huh?

    lol just something for the kids to fight about no disrespect to S.T.P. or A.I.C. BUT EVERYONE JUST SHUT UP AND ENJOY THE SONG ALREADY...

  • AMEN. I like you man haha I hate assholes that start pointless arguements on a video that doesnt relate to it at al!!!

  • by the way if any of you think duvall is an embarssesment to AIC then drop by there myspace and leave them a comment and let them know that Aaron does amazing covers of there songs and that they should think again about touring with duvall beacuse i saw them live in the euorope tour and william sucks AIC and layne desserves better so take a min n help a cause!!! :)

  • HAHA dude im sorry but no one is layne staley layne can not be replaced! i mean Aaron does amazing covers of AIC the best ive ever heard but layen is layne and not many are better than him live because of all the passion he had for music and the emotion he had put into his music and lyrics

  • thats not true Layne was a great vocalist and a musical genius better, with that said, there are plenty of singers better than Layne both live and in studio.

  • Like who? Thought so.

  • he is awesome but like the dude before me said he is not on laynes level.. no one is or ever will be... rip layne

  • ok dude i love this mans voice n all but no one will ever compare to layne staley lol layne is a god to music n brought so much to what music is today n if he hadnt died he would have brought much more... i am a huge AIC fan n i can say that Aaron has an amazing voice n yes is n a catogory with layne but is not better n never will be better live layne had the best live voice any musician has ever had dont belive me look up alice in chains unplugged n listen to how powerful his voice is...
