This. is. amazing. And you're beautiful. :) I love the "aaaaaa"'s at the end. I might listen to it three more times.

[oneups]

What fret is your capo at? Is it tuned standard? Could you possibly provide the chords you are using? Its a bit different than what I found but I love your sound a lot better. :) Great job!

[sjtw89]

@oneups sup! sorry im a bit late on this, capo's on 4th, tuned to standard. you'll have to watch closely for the chords, my brother just taught me from picking it up by ear. good luck!

[songsisingforyou]

@sjtw89 oh no! I can't see the chords :(

[XsNRGX]

i think its amazing that you can smile at your whistling though you think its terrible, many would scrap the video and start over but im glad that you didn't cause that wouldnt be the real you. You have talent, and out of all the covers of this song that i have seen, this is by far the best. You do a great justice to this song.

[oneawkwardkidd]

this cover did the original so much justice, esp the singing at the end! i can't seem to figure out the fingerpicking though, what strings did you use? it sounded dead-on.

[Murbon87]

You are amazing!!! <3 <3

[ramsteina]

the ending is superbly sung! well done

[elizashort]

Absolutely beautiful, keep it up!

[awesomeaussie241]

I've been listening to your cover all day for the past two days and I am so enthralled by it. It is better than the original and moves me to tears. My grandmother back in Australia died very suddenly and my grandfather just spent his days waiting to be with her and when I hear you sing that part I just well up. Also your room rocks and you kind of look like Lenka. Keep up your amazing work! Cheers!

[lovyazlots]
