[MidnightMinstrel]

I can't believe what I just seen and heard! I'm gobsmacked! That was incredible! bloody incredible! he's mostly known here in uk for making daft films, I see him in new light now! Amazing cover of one of the greatest rock songs ever!

[therit00]

ha, love it xx

[donaldcochrane]

What's also awesome is AS is wearing a Manchester North Little League shirt (Manchester NH). My oldest son played and I coached in that league years ago.

[DPwatkykjy]

@donaldcochrane OMG WHAT A COINCIDENCE

[gypsydog24]

By the way what year is this?

[smu137]

@gypsydog24 2008 afaik

[gypsydog24]

Absolutely fantastic,no further words required.

[gdebby]

Sexy, Sandler!

[accustomcycle]

Fantasic!

[laportama]

When?

[Neverever325]

I wish you could edit Letterman out of this...annoying.

[Neverever325]

Really like this. Great job!

[dirtyje]

a neil young impersonation that sounds like J mascis, how enlightening =D

[densthemenace]

so talented.keep rockin.one of my favorite song by Neil young...

[welshcanadian1]

I am a massive Neil Young fan and I like this. I usually hate covers but fair play to Adam he does well here.  Good on him.

[Msdistarr]

@welshcanadian1 I agree with you. I grew up during the era of Neil Young and love his music. Like yourself I hate covers about 95% of the time. But he did a fairly good job with it. He did fine until he started screaming a the words out. Who would have thought Adam Sandler was a Neil Young fan. I'm suprised.

[Blondibell]

Damn great job of it Adam Sandler, YEAH!!!

[parnellijones]

Damn. The Wedding Singer's come a long way.

[twchamb72]

WOW ADAM YOU ROCK-WANT MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[balajadiarv]

very nice.

[moochie1965]

Honestly... I'm surprised! I expected much less from Adam Sandler.

[rockandrollforlife1]

Why the fuck is he an actor?!? He rocks so hard!

[rjketche]

Pretty decent job!

[MinisterofScissors]

Holy Jesus! Not expecting something serious... there's such potential for him to mock Neils voice and he actually does a really great job instead.

[SmartGuy212121]

It's sad, Adam Sandler is one of the most down-to-earth actors out there and still people resent him.

[eloypath]

I like the Guitar Girl in the back too.She got the Groove!

[seacanter]

Wow ~ I expected a parody but Adam blew me away !

[PansyxChaos91]

ADAM DOES IT ALL! :)

KEEP ROCKING ADAM! He has got to the one of the best decent men in this world :)

[PansyxChaos91]

@PansyxChaos91 sorry :( i meant to say that he has got to be one of the best. haha. sorry for the misunderstanding. lol

[badlandss10]

Good job!!! I`m surprised Adam.I really appreciate u more now!!!

[shameless792]

go adam rock on:D

[JaySensei]

i love this cover, awesome job adam

[phantasmphan]

the best cover song ever made.

[TheRedemtion]

Bravo Neil would love it !

[jpkilldriver]

Damn,Adam Sandler could start a Neil Young tribute band.

[johnahabig]

0:25

[AdamINAmsterdam]

Are you people kidding me? He and that half-assed band took all the life out of this song.

Yeah it wasn't a disaster, woopee! But would hearing Neil belt this epic out ever make me for 1/2 a second think "oh yeah, Adam Sandler does a good take on this"? NO!

Here's the breakdown: over-simplified intro, monotonous verses, bland solo, shlocky "look at me" fake rock-scream, and lights out. BOOOORING!

Ya'll wanna see how a cover is done proper, check out Heather Nova's take on this song.

[Adnoydal]

"adam sandler and neil young at the bridge school benefit on 10/25/09 "

[TheBrandon805]

u sound like a talentless bitter man learn to do something and c if u can make it on letterman

[brendanb215]

i guess that wasn't half bad considering i was expecting the operaman rendition

[56Veggie]

Not bad. He's actually a better singer than an actor. When was thing filmed?

[ronin2001uk]

i thought this was gonna be a total piss take... wasI wrong ..I've heard worse covers off pro bands

[jhcproddy]

i think this is heaps good not as good as the original of course but hes not too bad at it

[droagan]

adam sandler is awesome*****

[DrewAnti1960]

sounds great

[BigManTate7364]

I think he did a good job especially seeing as he isn't a singer he's an actor.

[Adnoydal]

EVH couldnt have done it better

[fulluvit]

I guess I'm just curious as to why this even exists. Please tell me that's not T-Bone Burnett playing bass.

[pauloricardo1984]

Nope, it's Will Lee on the bass

[defleppardgirl2009]

this song is beast

[sidensvans54]

Nice black gibson guitar,, bigsby too..

Ya Da.

[jackHNv]

Can't stand Adam Sandler, but at least he picked a classic!

[brendanholohan]

Not too bad but I've got strong suspicions that Sandler's amp isn't turned on, his rythm, or lack thereof, is all over the place.

[mick2450]

its there, just really quiet... bad souncheck, so it seems

[JrBills2010]

you can clearly hear his rhythym guitar in the back, just listen

[Powderfinger07]

The dude playing lead made the song

[EchoDub]

He does a pretty good job

[golfnut20]

That's probably the only funny thing I've seen Sandler do.

[aoystreck]

i honestly don't get why people comment on things they clearly had no intention of liking in the first place. why would a person watch this if they dislike sandler? if rob schneider or jimmy fallon did this i sure as shit wouldn't watch it, let alone comment on it

[golfnut20]

I wanted to see what it was like.

And it was crap.

[liquidwill]

god i can't watch more than a minute of this turd.

[tweck99999]

I think Adam does a commendable job here. His voice even does Neil justice.  Nice one, Sandler! Even a nifty little guitar lead that sounds a bit like Neil.

[JessLaJess]

Really? That's pretty hurtin'.

I bet if Neil Young saw this, he'd smile, cringe, then giggle and shake his head.

[cononking]

This is not a cover. He brings nothing new to the song. It's just Adam Sandler's chance to do upmarket karaoke on primetime TV. Wow. Truly awful.

[DBDForever]

Wow I'm blown away. I thought it would be a lot different. This is top notch

[Grauwsaur]

Its really nice.

[vafirefighter91]

Is their something Adam Sandler can't do, That was a pretty good cover, he really can play the shit out of that guitar.

[ebfruchu]

well he can use the right there...

[natewaggoner]

he dresses like he's in the arctic circle of canada. i wanna be just like him.

[seccers]

He pulls the song off so well I was really suprised.

[Tigizi]

That's pretty freakin sweet
