"Possum Kingdom" cover

[ChemaShima]

Can't get enough of this!

[focusontheargument]

I never listen to western music, but ur talent is universal. Ur voice, instrumental capacities, feeling for music ... very nice!!! Grtzzz!

[theDemon302]

everything is awesome but you way too chill on those drums

[notthere83]

@theDemon302 ah, he's probably playing some character there ;)

[AxeVEVO]

Very Nice..You could use some work on the Jesus, Jesus, Jesus part though..lol. You aren't saying it with enough brain washed slavery.

[nubzz]

Nice work.

[kpgpwi64]

I cant hit that B in the vocals before the guitar solo/breakdown thing=(

[ckid150]

The rhythm guitar needs to be louder.

Badass.

[mobby32]

loosen up on the drums bro remember, Loosey goosey baby loosey goosey

[psycho826]

david cross did a good job with this

[Alisterbloodcrave]

This is better than the original version.

[VicodinAddicted]

This video made me interesting in the album, so i downloaded rubberneck and i found another awesome song called Quitter, and i would like to suggest you to cover this song if you want, cause i think you would do a great job..

[JustinGPyle]

damn, cool

[metalisbetter1o00]

mfw I realized this song was about a serial killer

[Uberlaser]

This is great, Eddie!

[shredmastersg]

That was awesome! I have watched your videos for years and then i look up this song and your cover comes up... What an obscure song, and you sang a cover ! Kick ass!

[theclockmace]

Well done cover and a different Video conpare to your satire

[cadeere74]

Man this is a killer one man show! I would love to see more musical stuff.

[VadimCAE]

PRAISE THE LORD WITH UR MUSIC BROTHAA

[wp4866]

you have a great, god given talent. why not use it for gospel music?

[94Cioppa]

@wp4866 lmfao

[botanu]

That is an amazing cover. Excellent!

[jamesraymondsmith]

very well done,,, thanks for posting,,

[AussieMaleTuber]

Cool!

[OthelloCarmellow]

Awesome.

[mjlgaard]

Really well done. That is one of those great songs that finds a dark corner in your mind and stays there.

[swilson3d]

Numchuck skillz

Thumbs up.

[anticorncob6]

JESUS CHRIST SHALL NOT BE MOCKED

[MrKrov]

@anticorncob6 I'd say he's been thoroughly mocked for quite some time. Bit late on that, you are.

[treehugrurthluvrsupr]

stellar job on this one!! =D

[cycophile]

EC is like the show M*A*S*H... the healing power of comedy.

[RayTech70]

Awesome work, Edward! You could easily make someone who never heard the original think this the was it... right on :)

[leighleebabe]

Write your own music man =]

[HermanniSan]

@leighleebabe Haven't you already heard his own song named "Constipation". It's a nice classical piece and fun too. One doesn't listen to music too often and start thinking about taking a dump in the process. If I could have a Japanese singing toilet. I would have Constipation as the distraction music.

[musacworld]

it bet if you wrote original music, that it would be awesome, I, for one, think you should

[WhoCuppedMyCake]

You're incredible dude!

[HodadWah]

:)



[Miata822]

Say, hook us up w/ an MP3, Pleeeeeeze?

[Miata822]

freakin great cover, dude. FWIW I am an aficionado of the Possim King hisself and have walked around that very lake... with similar intent ;-)

[bigjim19602003]

..but..let me get it straight..u actually dont believe in God..n u do this to make fun of Christians...wow..not cool...sad....urra good musician though..God bless you n guide you n help you and ur audience to understand ?????

[bigjim19602003]

...I've never heard of you before n stumbled across this...Amazing...u covered it all superbly, vocals, playing....Good luck and God Bless !!!!

[hapexamendar]

Ed, just amazing! I didn't know you were so multifaceted! You are definitely my favorite christian and nuclear physicist, and one hell of a musician!! With all of your overseas work with the poor building wells, you should be nominated for some humanitarian award!! And to be clear.. it's not some secular humanist award, humanitarian just means a nice guy.

[CydoniaKnight1]

You remind me of Billy Corgan

An even smarter Billy Corgan xD

[MrUtopia77]

whoa...u can sing too?

[FendenKrell]

not bad :)

[AcousticHustler]

Do Christian even use their ears. It seems like they'll support anything without question as long they hear the word Jesus...

[ChichiLikesFood]

God save you.. Haha, amazing cover dude.

[kd5alc]

Awesome Job!

[JokerzKard]

So help me jeeezuss! Haha, nice work Ed, Ed, Ed, and Ed!

[mabank]

Awesome Christian Rock! :D

[RobbyTheSheef]

That was actually super awesome. Totally unexpected. I had no idea you were a musician as well!

[HGeneAnthony]

@RobbyTheSheef he did a vid awhile back for Ziggy Stardust you should check out

[anarcho2narco]

NICE

[augustmaple]

DAT TALENT

[lowbudgettheory]

Fun cover...

[KEPoles]

Your work is wonderful! Such a surprise.

[pdblouin33]

The view counter must be broken, it seems to have counted only my views so far.

[AustinBrock]

Drummer was wearing "An Atheist Meets God" t-shirt :D.

[Cioppa182]

@AustinBrock he is the drummer

[AustinBrock]

@Cioppa182 OMG REALLY? *sarcasm* ;)

[94Cioppa]

"So help me Jesus"

Irony

[94Cioppa]

Perfect

[Raedan23]

bloody hell! that was unexpected and awesome. one thing though is that you're looking a bit stiff on the drums. have you tried some warm up exercises before you play? star jumps work for me even though i look like a complete twat while doing them.

[accent77]

Okay, this has been in my subscription vids for quite a long while and I have avoided it because it wasn't one of your normal videos, but I finally clicked on it so that it would go away. I am pleasantly surprised. You have a ridiculous amount of musical talent, and I'm assuming you can play that keyboard as well. Why is it that most atheists seem to have so much talent in artistic areas?

[killmrmanson]

Badass vocals! Can you do brain stew by green day?

[TheLawlbringer]

Great job!

[crowwork]

Nice work Edward!

[pdblouin33]

@ChiefLittleBigHit Attempt? This is better than the original. It feels more..."real", and...powerful? I'm not a music snob, so I'm not good with the adjectives.

[IthacaStLondon]

I have lost track how many times I have watched this video. I am so happy you post videos.

[wlchambers]

hey edward, you are pretty good. done a great job on this!!

[Blizzard56k]

"So help me Jesus" So awkward...hahaha

[koyima]

i prefer listening to this version than the original. Great work!

[dejamoocathy]

I love your videos ed. You are awesome

[161194]

dont push it on those high tones. if you relaxe more and maybe even bend your knees and dont lift your head it will be easier even if you dont know if you are going to reach the tone or not. and of course, warm up before singing :P

[MotoAtheist]

Well Done!

[Ralentity]

Not bad.

[theJasiu2]

You should do a Smashing Pumpkins cover :D

[FCKEVRY1]

Better than the original!

[journeyer58]

Straight up Frickkin the bomB! Dude, You're the Shit!

[hotcrotch]

great :D

[806Frances]

Awesome cover

[75353866]

Is he playing both rhytham and Electric guitar or just 2 electric ones?

[Mathwards]

@75353866 When someone says rhythm guitar, they aren't referring to a separate instrument. Rhythm guitar is just a separate part in a musical arrangement.

[jamielynnfox]

You rock for the lord! :) Love it!

[254jacksonpro]

you suck baldie

[TonyKnockOff]

@254jacksonpro

I'd like to see you try to sing and play all these instruments to cover the song. Oh that's right, you can't.

[SirJosephOxford]

@254jacksonpro Zero uploads... huh.

[JesikaPerezRulez]

My ass this sounds better than the actual song or does it sound the same... You guys must be deaf.

[LeeChavezMusic]

Right on! It sounds amazing Ed!

[animatedwierdo]

HOLY **** SOUNDS ALMOST EXACTLY THE SAME :O

[rederickg]

One of the best covers on youtube! Promote this video to your christian friends. Let them discover Ed's other videos on their own =).

[pdblouin33]

HOLY MOLY! I bought the original on iTunes because of you but it SUCKS! The way you sing it is better.

[Frost87112]

cheers Eddie ....greetings from Mexico =)

[pdblouin33]

The way you sing "I will treat you well" sounds like "I will drink you up", to me, at least. Must be my Canadian nationality.

[soundrone]

kick ass song bro , nice job covering it too ....

[TABOOVSKNOWLEDGE]

Whopty fricken doo!

[cyxgun]

Wow! I love this song. You're really talented to be able to play every part like that...

[bhig3]

dude, really awesome!!

[proofandevidence]

skills

[mieprowan]

Better than the original, IMHO.

[Daburcor]

This is a really, really good cover.

[6583987]

That was awesome!

[trikeisawesome]

Fantastic job Edward... wow.  Rocking tune!

[guitboy804]

sounds just like the original, except not as good. why record a cover note for note? love ya, Ed, but this is looks a little like multitrack masturbating. what is it they say about imitation? Love ya, mean it!

[wolverine005]

@guitboy804 It seems to me that you're expecting way too much from something like that. Why cover it note to note? Why not? It's a good bit of fun, I'm guessing. That's all. Nothing more, nothing less.

[pdblouin33]

Seriously love your cover - I had never heard this song before but now I like it. And what's weird is that I had never heard this song before, and it played in a store at the mall a few days ago - it's strange how you notice things once you're aware of them.

[q1000101]

Excellent! I've been watching your religious parodies for a while, but would have never guessed there was all this awesome musical talent lurking in you as well. Well done, bro! You kick ass, plus you've got more hair than I do.

[94Cioppa]

Who else laughed when he sang "so help me Jesus" ?

[RuskoE]

If didn't know ya, I'd have quoted Hank Hill, "You're not making christianity better, you're making rock music worse."

Haha, j/k great job! you do all instruments sing and a/v mixing. Talent!

[PhatLarkin]

You and Todd Allen Gates should work as a duo!

[94Cioppa]

5 Stars. Singing is great.

[darthenchantra]

I NEED this on itunes. Not want; NEED. <3

[Loffter]

Fuck the Christian mockery videos. Just do music. I think this may be better than the original.

[rudycelaya]

90's are the best

thats music

Unlike today people rapping about bitches and money and what they got

And repeating the same words over and over and over while making up a stupid dance move.

And now they use auto-tune because their voices are horrible.

[pdblouin33]

@rudycelaya BLACK and YELLOW, BLACK and YELLOW, BLACK and YELLOW, BLACK and YELLOW, BLACK and YELLOW, BLACK and YELLOW, LOL. Seriously, that song is a perfect example of how rap music has turned into a "Bitches, Hoe's and Currency" genre. I'm pretty sure even 90's rap had more meaningful lyrics in proper prose.

[dacat]

Really well sung well played. *applause*

[withfootnotes]

i added this to my faves....my husband said he didn't know the song, then when i played it he said, "yah! i know that song, great song!

Eddie, i didn't even know this song.......now I know it and I love it!!!!!

[withfootnotes]

@withfootnotes I just love you Ed Current!!!!!!!!!!

[10kzebra]

Dude... mix the atheist stuff with the rock stuff, and you'll be golden. You rock it in ways better than I did in my 90s-era wanna-be rocking, but you do it better... and you also rock my atheism better than I ever could... sell a book already, I'll buy it.

[hmlessalky]

Good job. I always wanted to do something like that, except use my voice for all the 'instruments'.

[camperstyle]

Fuck yeah!



[ericsbuds]

fuckin rocks

[sergiobrejo]

ionno why, i feel it evokes satan

[6runge]

@sergiobrejo Actually it does when u you play it backwards.

[HiveDes]

Good GOD that was amazing!

Truly the spirit of Christ lives within you! Joe bless you!

[firelawn74]

Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii­iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice!

I suppose you're using a $%#$%^!! Mac to make editing your video so easy?

[koyima]

awesome Ed! fan from Greece

[punksk666]

look at mister talented being a whole band

[burchdc]

I think I like this better than the original...great job!

[TheDemocraticEmpire]

This is great. Edward. This is really good.

[xbox1768]

kool great song

[rivers221]

i wasn't expecting this, awesome

[2eelShmeal]

So funny.. I play guitar too and on the opening riff all I saw was the guitar... I'm like: Oh that shit's easy...

Then I saw you doing all the other parts and I was like FUUUUCKKK !!!!!

You talented SCUMBAG you! Who do you think you are anyway playing multiple instruments? ... Kid Rock? Prince? lol

Great job bro.

[meacham723]

fuckin awesome



[Blueflesh4]

Substituting Jesus with Mazu might have been a funny little bit, that could go along with a few other vids of yours.. j/k.. still.. top notch Ed. Great rendition of the original..

[Blueflesh4]

You did a damn good job on this song..

[thomasnonsense]

That style certainly isn't my cup of tea, but I was really enjoying it as it went along. Thanks for creating the video and posting it, and very well done. I love your "Christian" videos, but you can post as many music videos as you like. You have my express permission.

[atchisrj1]

Love it!

[mjgrubbs1]

Ed, you are a very talented artist and a theists worst nightmare rolled into one hilarious package. Keep up the great work brother. Great compilation!

[nastevone]

Wow! amazing job.

[exmariner62]

Don't stop now...



[golgarTheMighty]

So, you are a God Warrior and you make this video, and then God burns down the actual Possum Kingdom in Texas in an uncontrolled fire. You truly are his chosen archangel and the new Michael. Checkmate.

In all seriousness, though, great job on this video. I hope to see more from you in the future! I wish I wasn't serious about Possum Kingdom burning down. :( THOR, BRING US RAIN! GOSH

[manathehouse]

Unless my eyes deceive me, that is an Ibanez Roadstar II. If that's true, then we have the same guitar!

[theclinger]

@manathehouse "Ibanez Roadstar II guitar, Ampeg V3 tube amp, Amplitube, Ibanez Tube"

In the description.

[Bryan19780]

You should try out for Atheist got Talent!

[TheReaverOfDarkness]

@Bryan19780 shhh.... they aren't supposed to know....

[cockyjeremy]

@Bryan19780 He's an Atheist?!?! [/sarcasm] :)

[BrandonTsia]

@Bryan19780 Too bad he's a Christian.

[k1llk1ngph30n1x]

@BrandonTsia loltroll

[splicedenergy]

@BrandonTsia NO he so is not a christian. He is totally an atheist. Guess you missed the whole satire bit he's got going on @here

[HRRyan2]

Playing drums isn't your first instrument is it?

[JosephW99]

Way better than the original

[wtfomgstudios]

What is epic about this video is the fact that the singer of this song's original writer was an Atheist with a Christian father. He wrote "I Come From the Water" because it had something to do with evolution, so he wrote it to piss off his father XD!

[stlcityboy]

That was pretty damn awesome!

[darthawsome]

Edward I love your videos you are an outstanding Christian, but I'm surprised you would cover a song like this. It isn't very... wholesome. Good talent, though ;)

[wtfomgstudios]

@darthawsome You do realise these are satire videos, right?

Irony in the fact that the person who wrote this song wrote "I Come From the Water" to piss off his anti-evolutionistic dad.

[Reip187]

@wtfomgstudios lol...look at his subs. I think he knows.

[L33TINCARNAT3]

Amazing job!

[Mrcliff4]

i'm surprised and impressed. good job with the cover ed.

[Valstein0]

I knew it! You're secretly Dr. Manhattan.

[JackeWilton]

@Valstein0 There is a lack of Blue in his appearance that would jeopardize that claim.

[Valstein0]

@JackeWilton Also a lack of matter disassembly and other sweet stuff. But how do you explain him being in multiple places at once? Checkmate!

[JackeWilton]

@Valstein0 You failed to consider the fact that he could be one of three clones. One who drums, lead guitar, bassist, and the clichéd lead vocalist-back up guitarist. It would explain why he is a satirist against religion—being the first real human clones and all.

[terrylawson666]

NICE!

[TheTardcore]

You should do a cover of Peaches by The Presidents of the United States of America. It would make my life.

[MrHermionePotter]

You should totally team up with Ween.

[MagellansUnderwear]

Possum Kingdom is pretty much a lake surrounded by ash now.

[neglectoid]

i've been a sub for awhile now and never commented.

loved it buddy !!

also made me think of a different interpitation of the lyrics.

thanx.

[savedenewt]

Absolute class, Eddy!

[vibratinjoy]

you are the shit, man! great song! i do not think jesus thinks the same way!

[derekismature]

Such a great song.

[Jared111505]

So much better than the original

[ttgator2003]

Great Tune Eddie!!!!! Not used to seeing you so serious.

[meatwad260]

Not only is he sarcastic, he's also musical!

Though I expected some gospel. Like, hardcore gospel.

Wow, Ed, that was unexpected. Seriously nice renditi
