Behind Blue Eyes (acoustic Who cover) - Mike Masse

[TheNiedraFour]

Perfect! Excellent, clear voice, Mike. Wonderful job!

[IronMaiden1478]

I am a man who do not cry, but this music and cover made me fall in tears. I always dreamed to play this tune on the guitar, but never could 'cause all tabs are wrong and I can it take by ear because of the picking part ... Sorry my english, I'm a brazillian boy who would like to thank you for the cover, and I'm sorry to ask, I really am, but can you help me with some tabs? Anything? It's my dream to play this song just like you! Thanks you very much just for reading.

[MrRocktilludrop3]

god how I relate to this song.

[TSroyal13]

Sittin here with my guitar, played this song a minute ago, see this and know, I'm bad! :)

[jpac74]

Nice

[muzaklover78]

Incredibly nice! Only comment is it's lacking in the harmonies... where's Sterling to back you up when you need him?

[n0m0reg0dz]

Chick @ 0.27 What the Hell? He's rocking a great song and you're leaving? Give me a break.

[nokomarie1963]

Surprisingly good cover. It makes me wince for all the kids back in high school who would have killed to sing this as well as you do. A rendition that is clear and individual without trying too hard.

[radi125]

unbelievable

[MrMaxfieldCenoz]

This is Mr. Masse's best cover. What a beautiful representation of an emotional story. Thank you Mike.

[0611dean]

[kittehhatetube]

That's actually a VERY good cover. I like!

[soheyman]

Well done, next time tell those people 'We're taping here! Sit down! '

[megadeath8317]

@soheyman That's the only way to get to the restroom.

From in-front of the camera.

[Edmosto]

I've look at a lot of "how to play" videos of this song and they all got the chords wrong. You nailed it. Nice vocal too.

[frac10]

holy sheeeeeeez this stuff is goood!!!!!

[spoke264]

[77LIGHTSABER]

I stumbled upon mike masse searching for a pinball wizard acoustic performance. Sinc then i have watched him perform in great awe. When I saw his performances of "africa" and "paranoid android" I was hooked . A pure white light of talent. An inspiration to all musicians.

[lulabel64]

So I was only looking at The Beatles cover, until I found this, it's amazing!

[santiu10]

wow""""จ๊าบ

[wivl1]

I can't help but sing along to the chorus of this song. Awesome job at covering it.

[Chummer0]

You needed your bass player to fill in those Harmonies, but I think that makes it illegally good....

[oimi]

Each video and performance is as good as the next! Epic..

[childers6067]

absolutley amazing man really dig all your stuff. keep it up.

[razenburn]

I was a fan before I saw this. Now I'm a disciple. Haha! Fantastic!

You and your tunes will always be welcomed and have a home in Austin. it's a pretty cool place for music.

[TheBaenny]

Greetings from Germany

[obnubilate]

@TheBaenny Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber are mainstream in Germany? Oh you poor sods

[CrayzyFreakzzz123]

[thomsdpsjdbv]

[themadscot34]

[Maidenrugby]

Can't say much more than everyone else has already said here! Really, REALLY like your voice. Your guitar playing seems effortless too. This is definitely one of the best covers I've ever heard of this song.

[MrWebberman]

Mike, do you have any originals? Would love to hear them. Don't be shy, I'm sure they're great.

[mikemassedotcom]

@MrWebberman Thanks. There's a playlist of a handful of originals on my channel page. I like them, at least. :)

[adriansoldierwolf]

@mikemassedotcom could you please do a cover of the king of carrot flowers by neutral milk hotel?!?!?!!?!?!?

[paulshipmandr]

Mr Masse, you make it look so easy, and you sound phenomenal! When I'm trying to learn a new song I look you up to see how you do it. If only you would cover all the songs I like. Wish I could have part of your talent and voice. Awesome!

[vuquylam93]

this is the best cover version i've ever heard!!!! cool voice, guitarplay is not too complicated but so greattt!!!!!

[glh1956]

Great version Mike, excellent vocals & guitar work, a joy to watch & listen to!

[hnatkowicz]

F*&^%$#ing awesome @ 1:45. Kudos, bro. Wish I was there.

[xsited1]

If this guy doesn't have a record contract, he should.

[StillRockin1962]

I find myself constantly coming back to listen and watch this guy. What a true talent. I pray I never get so jaded or otherwise caught up in life that I would be doing anything other than siting still and watching if I ever found myself in a pizza joint and talent like this was playing.

[frenze1945]

this is good shit!

[Soloing4ever]

this guy should be earning millions, awesome cover!

[Loraine70]

I have fallen in love with your tallent...a one in a billion voice!

[6dod9]

he sing's this lovely..

[kernowrock555]

class....

[PipNAriella]

What kind of strings are you using? I love the tone!

[mikemassedotcom]

@PipNAriella Exilir Light. Usually Nanoweb Phosphor Bronze.

[BlackHawkGaming]

@mikemassedotcom Not too high priced are they? I actually like the bright, clear and clean tone it gives out, and I've been fretting over which strings I should get for my acoustic.

[Bajungadustin]

@mikemassedotcom i use the nanowebs too they are awesome.. about twice as much as regular stings where i get em but totally worth it.

[kanickelfresse]

@mikemassedotcom The best strings you can get. Each guitar sounds great with it.

[coolanddark]

WOW! Incredible cover! I was going to try this one but I better put it away now.haha. Amazing!

[GuitarLife2011]

в вашем исполнении, песня звучит лучше чем оригинал.).так держать!

[kevinsayahofficial]

[184danny]

[mike1095d]

Dude this is NICE!!

[sonor2020]

Mike

As always, you put your own slant on things but never fail to impress me.

Nice one!

[xTonyyy]

Loved it!

[singh6232]

My friends and I are wondering .... do you say Batman and Sandman at the end of the song?

[mikemassedotcom]

@singh6232 I sang "bad man" and "sad man", but apparently several people think I pronounced it strangely. Not intentional.

[BlackHawkGaming]

@mikemassedotcom I really enjoy your performances, especially the one you did with Jeff Hall on Sound of Silence. Great work! I currently have, along with my Epiphone Les Paul, a cheap Martin Co. Full Size acoustic and I would love to have a beautifully furnished Gibson Half Size and lay down those Exilir Light strings! But I have to ask your opinion, would you prefer Full Size or Half Size, also, my full size is coated with something and I hear that certain coating takes from the sound quality?

[mikemassedotcom]

@BlackHawkGaming By size, you mean dreadnought vs. jumbo, or something smaller? Jumbo's (like my 12-string) are a bit harder to play if your sitting down, but otherwise, they're fun. I've had guitars of all sizes I've enjoyed. If you get something smaller (like an "auditorium", using the Taylor terminology--not sure if other companies call them that), they lose a little of the low end when played unplugged, but work great live.

[BlackHawkGaming]

@mikemassedotcom Well I'm only around late 17 years old and of course, until I get in and out of college, I won't have money to do expensive on my own lol but my father's friend has a personal full studio set up in his basement with quite high end tools. He showed me a huge collection of his guitars and one was a smaller than normal sized acoustic Gibson (smaller than yours). It projected beautifully and was all mahogany and I'm looking for a bright projecting Treble tone...not a large body =/

[BlackHawkGaming]

@mikemassedotcom In other words, if you were playing in a seated position (which you normally always are), you would most likely prefer (for comfort) the dreadnought acoustics?

[mikemassedotcom]

@BlackHawkGaming Or auditorium, yeah. Jumbo is just a little too...jumbo.

[BowdenSpace]

Nice one, Mike. The mix is incredible here. And your pipes are great, man. Obvously you have been doing this for quite some time. I turned you on to my band mates here in D town. Hope you dont mind. Let us know when you have an itch to jam on a slightly larger stage.

-BB

[THEAnnEla]

11 people don't have ears!

This is amazing, you're great singer, I love it!

[jshaw7042]

Man you have an awesome voice you should do an acoustic version of Brian McKnight what I've been waiting for

[NowhereMan2011]

Fantastic version of this song. How do you make your guitar sound so good? What setup are you using e.g.amp, pa, preamp etc?

[tyleryesta1]

Man you can sing. I'm very impressed with your range.

[humanpaul]

Really nice cover! I'm trying to do my own depend mostly on yours :) BTW, your guitar's sound quality is great!

[kenmasters007]

nobody knows what its like to be BATMAN!!

[frkprimera]

[blica1]

[HeliVis]

Good work Mike. Your voice totally POPS!
