What You Are - Dave Matthews Band Cover

[whobludaphot]

I find it so funny how arrogant some of you people post comments.... Think before you speak it's a simple task that most learn at a young age.... Just once I want a big mouth to have a vid posted.... Even of just starring at a wal lol sorry you can't enjoy something for what it is.... Lol

[ERoths711]

@whobludaphot

No offense dude, but you are the arrogant one. That's the only reason I even posted the comments in the first place. You produce some good stuff, but that doesn't give you the right to be elitist. No one deserves that right. Dave isn't one, so why should you be?

I know what it means to think before I speak or act. That's why I don't end everything I say with "...Lol"

[kevinrjroy]

Great effects with the echo on the voice. It works perfectly for the mood of this song.

[simplecreativity]

You're a great cover artist, but the way you jump angrily on anyone who suggests you own the same guitars as Dave, says you can't/don't play just like him, or assumes you hear songs and then learn them so you can cover them, etc., makes you seem like a complete prick. For all we know, you might be an exceedingly nice guy, but looking at how you treat people that take time to comment on your work, you seem like an unbearable ass.

All that aside, you're great at covering DMB. Nice work. Peace.

[ERoths711]

@simplecreativity

agreed.

[fuhrer0808]

Nice work man. I love how you kinda have your own singing and don't just try and mimick it exactly how dave does. Props for that

[venelis888]

cover last stop!

[Lucidamy74]

magical :)

[fence0407]

This song and your version of Say Goodbye might be my two favorite of all your covers! I'm not a hater, but I do have some Dave covers posted...let me know how I could get better! You have helped me learn plenty of his songs already! Thanks! Keep posting!

@whobludaphot

Sure, man. I was actually the guy in the trench coat when Carter got pissed and didn't play Last Stop.

[ERoths711]

@whobludaphot

You seriously bought the baritone guitar just to cover Dave? I am a huge DMB fan, but you must be kidding.

[XXbiznitchXX23]

i forgot to ask: How much was that danelectro baritone? about $399 right?

[XXbiznitchXX23]

dude i think your amazingly talented. I love that baritone guitar. I want so badly to play different songs like angel, i did it, this song so right and especially: The Space Between[possibly my favorite song by dave

[DMBman365]

Yes this is awesome, and a hard cover to do. Great job!

[Lucidamy74]

so awesome!

[DMB41TwoStep]

wow dude..wow but I have a question. what effects are you using on your voice?? and the guitar as well. please get back to me

[BobbyFisher127]

thats too fucking sick man

[blahman178]

great job on those vocals.

[gooobucks09]

betchu got a boner when you nailed that note on "dont trust me, trust your self"

[DmB4LiFe420eL]

lots of passion... thats how it is done right there

keep up the great work you do man!

[DMB4LIFE13]

this is absolutely sick, great work

[mikinowacki]

Its danelectro guitar. Dave is using Jerry Jones Baritone. Looks very similar :)

[DMBFAN872]

wow, i forgot how much i love you!

[clinks007]

i watch this thing like every now and then when i need some emotional boost. im writing college applications now and i was like i neeed this song. I LOVE YOU DOG

[chubabubba013]

[Ldubberz022]

Since your from new york do you go to spac and see them? they r always sold out but i manage to buy the tickets verrry early. Def worth it.

I'd pay to see you too!!

[Ldubberz022]

Awesome<3

[CMonkey92]

good lord. you have so much talent, its ridiculous.  i love the intro.

[Domino3441]

god damn man that was impressive

[DMBFAN872]

ok, how many times am i going to say how freakin good you are? i love how this song is so heavy with its own groove. its kick ass. and i like how you do it.

[DMBFAN872]

...sick... im serious. i get first pick of the tour tickets.

[hughman174]

wow!! i'm speechless. just ran across your vids. huge DMB fan here, esp. Carter. that was one of the best cover vids of DMB i've ever seen. cool effects, great playing and singing. even look like DM. lol

[DMBFAN872]

i stumbled upon this guy about 6 mo ago. he's rediculously good. he covers the DMB songs but brings his own sound to it. i LOVE it. i even like some of Joe's covers more than i like dave's version. lol. (did i say that out loud?!)

[hughman174]

did u say that out loud?! HOW DARE YOU!! lol. yeah, he is real good. kinda scary in fact. even looks like him.

[DMBFAN872]

yes, i guess i did say that out loud! haha. i suppose he looks like him a little bit.

[falcons33el]

pretty good man...

[laxattack260]

PRETTY good?... How about INSANE good

[tivtavrocks]

awsome

[Christiannorden]

I love this song, and your cover! Of all the dave Coverers on youtube, you are the best singer, and one of the greatest on guitar aswell. I love the "Yeah" part in the beginning. F**king perfect! Keep em coming!

[burgosmatthew]

You're picking the right guy to cover; Dave songs are the shit.

[mcfaty11]

That is fucking nasty, dude! Awesome.

[mws51581]

Awesome. This was never one of my favorite DMB songs, but you did a great job with it. You even did the "pray down on your knees motherfucker" outro.

[rollmebackagain]

good cover of the song. I find it a bit funny that you have a Taylor 914ce (like Dave) and a black Jerry Jones Baritone (like Dave) - coincidence?

I'm not sure where you looked up the tabs for this - it still sounds somewhat close, but there are some distinct differences from the way Dave actually plays it, particularly in the chorus.

[whobludaphot]

Thanks for noticing, but its not a jerry jones they look the same, and i guess everyone who has a 914c not ce has one cause dave matthews uses it, think before u speak maybe next time u wont sound like a jackasss....

[ERoths711]

@whobludaphot

You still bought a guitar just to cover Dave.

[36everyday]

haha ypu really are part dave matthews, you even look a bit like him. keep rockin' man you sure are good at it.

[otsegoflake]

You, sir, are the man!!  Thanks for covering this!

[bwotwbianlw]

awesome...thats a really tough song to do without a band and u still killed it

[funkykingston41]

very fucking hot cover bro! keep it up

[Scarr420]

you deff have some dave in you, i might have to say you are right up there with Reinier Matthews for Dave covers.

[wmcguire2222]

better

[speilmen230]

agreed i think reiner tries just a bit too hard to sound like dave. this guy on the other hand has his own sound and it still sounds good.

[supraspeed1]

that is a kickass electric! what kind and how much if u wouldn't mind telling...sick cover btw. love the effects at the beginning

[supraspeed1]

if dave had a contest to find a clone as talented as him, you'd win...your shit is amazing

[irishfury777]

marry me?

[Petesheeah]

yo the background of all ur vids are so cool....where r u? in a studio or somethin?

[baulert1]

yo, I can't tell, but is that a fake band set behind you? Get rid of that $hit, you're better than that

[whobludaphot]

Thanks, But I cant get rid of it, its my shit...lol I'm not moving it for a video...lol Its not fake

[pioselo]

¡¡Buenisimo!! gran musico, gran voz,

[nfaswimboy]

SICK COVER

[manucdorea]

AMAZING...JUST LUV U!!!

[ididit433]

fucking beast

[wintersTCR]

Great Job! I minimized the screen and went to another page and I forgot I was listening to a cover. What kind of effect do you use on the intro?

[whobludaphot]

just a keyboard

[twostep03]

dude you kicked that songs ass! Absolutely incredible!! I love how you have the same baritone guitar as Dave too. Rhyme and Reason?? Maybe? think about it

[whobludaphot]

Thank You very much......I dont know it on guitar but I'll try to get to it....

[mclennon41]

Awesome awesome job. Thats a baritone right?

[911tabz]

dude, you're just that good...what tuning are you in?

[whobludaphot]

Baritone tuning its B

[911tabz]

thanks a lot

[Engcalcio15]

This was amazing

[dmbrpnzl41]

Youre killing me man, you pull out all the stops, the intro was sick

[whobludaphot]

Thanks man.....I'm glad you liked it....

[rodey29]

Wow, pretty awesome.

Didn't notice Crash Into Me amongst your videos. Wouldn't mind seeing you do that one.

[uclabruins023]

great job...you should do one sweet world and jimi thing

[uclabruins023]

dude you are amazing...you should do one sweet world or jimi thing...maybe even both lol

[digdug1226]

/Truly an excellent job Bro! Really enjoyed this!

[thomaskirkland]

AHHH you just made my day. Fkn awesome man. You should do Rhyme and Reason, you sound badass on the dark stuff. THis is killer though

[akangell]

Fantastic. I was just about to post this song and now I'm not sure I want to.  LOL.

[akangell]

Not that all your covers aren't better than mine, but in my opinion this one is your best performance.

[whobludaphot]

Post it.....more people need to play this one...I like your covers, i'm sure it will be great!!!

[gmen1228]

nice job joe

[gmen1228]

nice job man

[kroy1214]

I've been waiting for this, thanks alot Im blown away you did awesome. There's a version online that Dave does a live acoustic version on a radio station and i think it sounds better than on electric. Either way Your still the best. Keep em coming.

[thomaskirkland]

where is that version at?? i would love to hear it

[RhythmRiff]

wow how had i never heard this dave song before....none the less amazing job, now i gotta learn it. :)

[mnb6023]
