  • I love this cover, to me it is better than the version by The Who. You seem to put great love for this song into the song.

  • tabs please *_*

    

  • needs moar bass

  • #3 - If I may, In terms of an interpretation, my own view of the lyrics is that the protagonist of the song is in absolute yearning for his lover. I hear you say "in God" at 2:48, not "Oh, God!" as Daltry does, so perhaps you read it differently than I - but with muchos respect - I'd really like sometime to hear your version with the chorus sung partly in the style of the original, 1:30-1:40 and "Magic Bus" show you have the voice for it. Thanks again & Love rein over you from Scotland. :-)

  • Monsieur Eddie629 #2 - it's morning now and I've just learned to to play this song after watching your video last night. If you don't mind, I'm going to rip the audio track from your video onto my ipod and put it next to the Pearl Jam version, and when anyone asks me who's the artist, I'll take pleasure in directing them to your Youtube channel. I really like how you strip the essence of the song down acoustically, I feel your version is not just a "cover", but a really fine interpretation.

  • Monsieur Eddie629 -That was the best solo cover version of this song I've ever heard - radio worthy. Really liked your video too, how you showed both the lead and the rhythm parts - for people who'd like to learn to play a song that kind of thing is really helpful - thanks. :-) With respect, I'd really have liked if you had let it rip with the vocals during at least one of the choruses, love tears as well as soothes- but maybe your experience of it has been sweeter than most. Hope so. :-) Thanks

  • @DrewWlliams Right on Drew !!!...thanks very much my friend !!,,,glad you liked it man.....yeah..when I watch it still.....I wanna change a whole bunch of things......Thanksman...glad you got inspired by it my friend !!

  • So enjoyable to see your production.

    I try to play the Who myself for many years nothing to write home about tho)

    You're inspiring. Thank you Thank you Merci

  • Fantastic!!!!!!

  • Good execution but I really was hoping you'd sing your heart out on the chorus (it's the reason I love this song so much).

  • Great cover, I've been trying to learn how to play this for an eternity, all the chords and tabs on the net seem to be wrong and im not talented enough to play by ear!

    Could you share the secret of how to play this track, an instructional video or something!

  • Hey Fred !!! Thanks man !

  • Perfect, eddie. I always thought Daltry's vocals were a little over the top on that song. Your vocals are a much more appropriate fit to the lyrics/subject, IMHO.
