you're covering the best songs of the 90s. your skills are just amazing. one of the best on youtube. I really enjoy your covers. keep up the good work. kudos.
Dang, It's not that this song is hard to play, It's actually real easy. But for some reason this song is very hard to sing and strum at the same time, and for that, this is pretty great.
Goddamn! Kudos for that one man, some serious talent goin on here.. I just recently got obsessed with 1979, since I've been treading backwards in music and listening to a lot of 90s alternative.. You did the song justice! 5 stars in my book..
Fu** yeah dude. Finally someone who isn't playing all that emo crap and new punky shi*. Good taste and good covers. I wannna hear more of your voice though.
I can't remember where I learned this song. It wasn't from an online tab though. From what I can tell, all the tabs I've seen online are full of mistakes. I think I learned this song from the music book that came out for the Mellon Collie album.
good job man. i don't know how you can sing and play to that song, lol. it's freakishly hard to do. i can't even do it after hours of trying. hehe. laters.
That was epic man! Seriously, that was totally awesome. The Smashing Pumpkins should hear this.
