Thanks.

LOVELY guitar and vocal:)

Hilde

[w4zjm]

Perfection at it's best.

[llyaegerll]

awsome you should definantly try out for american idol or something

[contactkelso]

Cool dude! Getting better with the tunes, videos, singing & guitar playing. Kick ass!!!

[lokutube]

great

[thrustberry]

great voice, but the guitar playing the melody in the backround totally ruins it for me.

[Bastiaan77]

I'm sorry! ;)

[Ron81491]

Don't be sorry I thought it was awesome.

[wizardeal]

The guitar playing is totally awesome, it may have ruined it for thrustberry, but for me it makes it and I am sure John Lennon would appreciate it.

[jgelhaar]

@wizardeal I'm pretty sure this video is how I found Bastiaan. :) Nice memories. :)

Xylopolist has a great voice, too. Love it!

[roikin84]

i love you ~ john lennon...

[jgelhaar]

This is great. Great voice, great guitar work!

Let's all work to understanding these lyrics and working to make this world (here and now) a better one... It's all in our power.... Let's not let the chance slip away before we're gone. After we're gone, it's too late...

Jimmy

[Bastiaan77]

Your first message I've read Jimmy! Pretty nostalgic! :D

[jgelhaar]

I forgot all about it! But, it's still true now, just as it was then... Just as it always will be...

:)

[littlecherubs]

Wow!!

You are Awesome. Love this song and love you singing it!!

5 Stars

I just saw Bastiaan77 page and there are a lot of toher instrumental versions that would be perfect for other collaborations!(see "your song", "hotel california")

[mickyy666]

Singing's amazing! Guitars might have worked a little better if Xylopolist had played the chords, though... Still the lead was mad. 5 stars. :D

[stealth5976]

Very Cool My friend! 5 Stars

[pay1sam2]

Wow... I absolutely love your rendition of this great song. Not many people could pull it off but you guys did! Amazing Job! Gave me the goosebumps/dreamy feeling Thanks! Keep it up!

[kekman000]

Absolutely astonishing...you guys would count as deities if i wasn't imagining no religion!

[Bastiaan77]

Lol! Thnx! :)

[karaffe92]

aw, this is soooo beautiful.

you guys should've gone on the instant karma save darfur cd, definitely better than many musicians on that cd!

[xylopolist]

Well, had they offered us the opportunity I'm certain we would have! =D Thanks for your comments!

[shimmeraei]

I completely agree. I was disappointed with that CD.  This just rocks the kasbah.

[Bastiaan77]

Thnx! Never heard of that CD, but glad we should have been on it! ;)

[blinktwice4y]

hey this is a really great collaboration. awesome job both of you.

[caramelturtles]

wow SWEET!

[marcadam]

Dave, man that video rocked, kudos to you and the bastiaan. You guys did the song Justice, I'm sure John would be proud.

[Bastiaan77]

Thnx! ;)

[c0ldpl4y3r]

Only five words: "xylopolist and bastiaan77 the Biggers!" Great :D

[Sokarjo]

Incredible.... simply incredible. You guys make a great team! Fantastic work. Keep it up!

[WensleySwa1]

Lol, you made the vid with a dutch guy ! ahah :]

[Bastiaan77]

What's wrong with Dutch guys? ;) hehe.. But jep, he made it with me! Glad you liked it! :D We'll make more in the future for sure, and if you like, watch some vids of mine (however, I don't have such a voice as David..) so I let my guitar sing the vocals! ;)

[WensleySwa1]

Tsjap, ik ben een hollander! ahhaah :p

[Bastiaan77]

Ohhh.. lol.. Dat wist ik niet! ;) Blij dat je het mooi vindt! :P

[WensleySwa1]

Haha jaa, ik ben al een tijdje subscribed op xylopolist

[FAMOUS729]

fucking brilliant

really

.. in love with ur voice lol

not a stalker i swear aha

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

I really like the sound of your voice David, I already wrote it to you if I remember well !

Keep going !!

[awritersheart]

once again, i'm blown away. keep it up!

[shawnmcnair1]

Awesome man!

[genejoke13666]

dude fucking amazing...purely

[xylopolist]

Thanks, had a fun time making this with Bastiaan.

[genejoke13666]

how you been man

[xylopolist]

Good, working an awful lot but hopefully putting up a string of new videos soon. How about yourself?

[Goobian]

Great cover man. John's birthday was on October 9th if you can believe that. He would of turned 67. I made two videos the week of his birthday they are on my account if you want to take a look. I worked hard on them and so I thought you would appreciate them.

[xylopolist]

I will certainly take a look at them.

[marthival]

Well done I like it 5*

[WensleySwa1]

Common. Just get on idols or something.

You're awsome

[HRRNighthawk]

Agreed, though Idol seems to want people with subpar voices that get a little better during the show. Generally the people with really good "rock" voices are looked down upon on there. They want country/R&B

[Rizanaa]

You and Bastiaan77 are a great duo! ;) Very very nice!!! You two should work together.. wouw! :D

You have a very good voice! Love this version!!

[Bastiaan77]

:D You made a great vid man! Love it and love our collaboration.. Next time we make it all even more perfect, when we have more time.. :)

[Electrik7701]

Another masterfully crafted cover. Your awesome man keep it up I love this stuff

[TehBoomshiki]

Fucking amazing. All your covers always just blow me away man

[xylopolist]

Thanks much! Of course, as much credit is due to Bastiaan77's awesome instrumentation.

[BlueDevilGirl07]

I'm so excited that I had to comment again. Can't stop listening to this. You guys are amazing. Wish I could give it 10 stars! Take care, Tonya :)

[BlueDevilGirl07]

Is it silly that I cried a little when I saw this? Absolutely beatiful. This is one of my favorite songs. I'm speechless. Thanks for this. -Tonya

[xylopolist]

Glad you liked it- you introduced me to Bastiaan after all, so you had just as much a hand in this video as we did. =P

I'm not happy with how the video looks, it's kinda choppy.. I was playing video settings and it didn't turn out how I wanted it to..

But I like the song. =D

[BlueDevilGirl07]

I think it's perfect. Lovely in every way. In fact, I think the choppiness of the video lends perfectly to the song. It's supposed to have this kinda ethereal mood to it.  To be quite honest, I thought it was deliberate. It gave it a throwback almost picture flick quality. I thought it was absolutely perfect. Don't change a thing!

[Bastiaan77]

Thnx Tonya! :) You sure had your part in our collaboration! Your the founder of the 'band'! :P Glad to hear you like it that much! :D It was very special to make a song in just a couple of hours with someone on the other side of the world! And if it's up to me, we'll make some more in the future! :)

[JunkeeProductions]

Great job!

[foolofeveryone]

i just discovered you on youtube a couple of days ago, and yet, can't stop watching you. amazing, keep on keepin on!

[Valgod1983]

Very beautiful version :) congrats

xxx

Valérie

[sawb]

I've been following you for a long time, and I must say you are one of my favorite cover artists on youtube. This cover is truely amazing, glad to see you are putting emphasise on your voice rather then your guitar skill(which are really good as well). You truely need to find a way to get out there, you deserve the recognition.

[joncook7030]

I just said to myself, "I wonder when he'll post another video." And look, here one is. Nicely done.

[xylopolist]

I read your mind. =D Or, the other way around.. Either way haha.
