[zecardante]

aprende a cantar

[mytis123]

You are so awesome

[cheezervvvvv]

way to make it yours.Nice vocals and chords.I like the way you slowed it down a bit yet kept the feel.how do you like the epi 200? it sounds nice.

[alex32gherla]

Cuz it feels like it's the late 60's

[alex32gherla]

So shis is filmed in the late 60's,u're really stoned,and amy winehouse's mother,your ex,stole the song from you ?

[ideatorful]

Good job :) :)

[regios4ever]

ahh you did the Zutons version!! =D awesome.

[ellioteaston93]

spinetta

[wwwalmorjunior]

nice

[TooLowForDrag]

Stupid

[pluxplox]

Man this is so nice! your voice is so soothing!

[AdariR]

nice cover.

I like your guitar.

[LSaraCom]

Sounds so sweet. Pretty different of Amy's version but whatever, I like it.

[TheJazzyStone]

omg the guitar is ''modafuka''ing nice

[lolliter]

loved it +.+

[whiteheart747]

please say that you got this from the zutons and not amy winehouse ...

[theBZentertainment]

@whiteheart747 look at the date and you will find out

[229Ren]

Nice!!

[ElliottChick]

Dude don't take any notice of all these people hating on you, to be honest, I actually hate this song, but actually liked your version! Sounds better in this key, the guitar playing is simple but perfect for the style your trying to achieve (sure you fucked up at one point but that don't matter). Just one word of advice though, don't be afraid to really go for it with the singing! I thought it was a bit light! Also, I love your guitar. What is it?

[PetushCherrySwirl]

I wanna have your babies.

[NellyFurtado4eva]

wow that's cool

[justeen1990]

oh MY god!! this is amazing!

[hardchaw]

Great job sapping all the soul out of a great song.

[ElliottChick]

@hardchaw Obviously you have no idea what soul is.

[hardchaw]

@ElliottChick Oh really? lol You're an idiot. Singing slow doesn't equate to soul. This dude has no soul. You can argue with me but you would just be further proving how stupid you are.

[ElliottChick]

@hardchaw Yes I agree, singing slowly does not equate to soul. However the fact is that he's chosen to put his own spin on this song, and not keep it completely true to the original. Now I think I have sufficiently proven how "stupid" I am, can you please leave the adults to discuss in peace?

[hardchaw]

@ElliottChick I love all the internet go-to I know I'm wrong but can't admit it phrases but "let the adults discuss in peace" makes no sense. You're the one who brought into question my understanding of soul. I've heard many renditions of this song and this one just happens to lack soul. You may like it and while I know music is subjective what classifies as soul isn't. Just leave it at you like the song and you don't know what soul music is.

[themrrodster]

what a ugly guitar do you have haha

[connor95cas]

hey mann, great cover (Y) would you be able to let me know what the tabs are ?

[flalondon]

well done mate, I really enjoyed it. congrats

[malhori]

I think your voice is well-suited to do some really pretty songs that I've always liked, for instance "Words" by the Bee Gees (watch?v=JECTUQVrvzE)... "Beth" by Kiss (watch?v=PlZ7mTL4jRY)... and just about *ANYTHING* at all by Bread, like, "Baby I'm A Want You" (watch?v=Iq3biClGRNk)... "Everything I Own" (watch?v=rZtS6idkym0) ... "Make It With You" (watch?v=watch?v=iFpJwCmJIE8) ... and "Diary" (watch?v=aAtz-Mx-eEo)

[jjeb22]

You would have been a star in the 70's. Too bad eh most music is shit nowadays... Well this is good for personal use but once you've heard Steve Winwoods rendetion of that name Valerie....aaahh... its alright. Keep Tryin'

[claudino29]

Gay

[mcgrady972]

NICEE !

[stonemonkey999]

I love you.

Majorly talented :)

[VeronikaMinki]

i like how you sing a little bit freaky :D but i really like it !!!! ♥

[04jimaica]

sounded like Dont let me down by the beatles 

[TheHippieDude]

you sound like John Sebastian!!

[malhori]

I've seen a few renditions of 'Valerie' here on youtube, but none cause me to emote the way that yours does (other than Amy Winehouse's version)... if you put just a little more depth & sincerity into what you're singing (as if you were saying those words to someone named 'Valerie' for real), then I bet you could draw enough emotion out of me to make me cry, but it was pretty darn close :)

[gizzardlove]

very nice mate

well done

[joeizgr8]

hey dude can you send me a tab or the chords or sumthin please i cant get this song down, cheers buddy.

[psybuk]

good version!

[telltalemse]

omggggggg!!! oh man, thsis is so fucking cool.......wow. its like some old recording from ages ago ahah, youve a beautiful voice, i seriously dont usually post comments on covers or even look em up. i wasjust looking this one up to see how other people played the guitar for it just to get an idea for myself. but anyway, very cool man this is very beautiful. :)

[tihomir7]

good cover. I like it, but You have good guitar. Why dont you record it with mic. With pup it souns like plastic. You sing good and you deserve beter sound, and that is your acousatic sound. forget the pup

[LiebeZumVampire]

This is great!! Love your version, impressive

[smileqcf]

[aliasthc]

i agree with tomaac

[tomaac]

you sing too smooth....neither amy or zultans sings like that...

try to rock more, to put more soul into the music...

[nickvisstick]

It doesnt have to be exactly like the original.. If hed do that, it wouldnt be better..

Anyway, great job

[ams54321]

Incorrect. This is excellent. But the OrtoPilot version is simply the best.

[fairskyze]

Groovy. l love the way you sing this song! It's like you're singing to me - Valerie. ;P

[pieface1726]

smooth voice, its quite soothing. and the guitar you made it flow very well. good job man

[stevoleeds]

[DAVIEAPX500]

Epiphone EJ200 Natural £250 but can get a better guitar for that price

[letmelickit]

Any advise about the ej200 or which guitar is better for the money ? I hear the ej200 is pretty good.

[HereComesARegular11]

[sam979415]

good cover

[jrleal76]

Great stuff! I do some covers based on what I saw from you (Open Your Eyes). What devices do you use to record the songs?

[camila181]

I love this version! i like the one done by the zutons, and the cover by amy winehouse is just great, but i actually like this a lot more!!! it's really good, it has a different tone, and a more significant one than the one amy winehouse puts on it. love it.

[ifizzie87]

dude! awesome man. like the buildup to the second verse. you using a Gibson? or an Epiphone? cause your guitars sounds great!

[htm2210]

[thung22]

gay or nerd whatever! This guy got a good voice, at least he is not out of tune. So before criticising other people post a video response then if your version is better will give you an applause. Dumbasses!

[superfly1001978]

Gay !!!!

[daisydial]

Awesome!

[avrilfucker]

Hey mik ;) it was pretty good, You play awesome..... and I love u guitarrrrr (L)

-xxxx- avrillll

[Curegirl92]

you are extremely talented i wish i had a voice as awesome as yours x

[Aileendamen]

You have a good voice, but I don't think its for this song. The guitar playing for my likings was a bit soft, it could be a bit more upbeat. But it was well played. Keep it up.

[mistrdante]

the best acoustic version on the net, thankyou

[swinnixon]

killer voice man, do you have any of your own material

[idro2k]

oooooh, Sounds Sweet my friend!!

Keep it up!

[macleaja]

Beautiful!

[peterboyne123]

This is brilliant

[lynseey22]

dingbaws is a moron, as a singing teacher you've got a lovely voice

[singerlibby]

amazing real good. keep it up mate xxx libby

[dingbaws]

hey

Well your instrumental and stuff was pretty near perfect cood of made it a tiny bit more agresive, your voice is reely good but i dont think its good for this song or rock or indie, its not got enuf rebelion, and edge and rockingness to it

the type of rock youd be reely good at covering is some jeff buckley sutff especialy hallelujah, but the instrumental to most his stuff is fairl difficult ( he plays guitar) but yeh anyway good song but your singing let you down

[ejjury]

that is REALLY good

[sunflower7202]

* Ment To Say Mate not Made

[sunflower7202]

made you are top glass! You Have To Go Busking!!

[acousticj]

Great

[tlopez07]

well played mate

[TwoTube2]

Your guitar and singing is great, a tribute to the Zutons but you made it your own with this acoustic version. One thing I enjoy about the original is the slight gravel in the lead singers voice when he sings "why don't you come on over Valerie" If you could emulate that I think this would be perfect, but as it is you've recorded a great cover and should be proud :)

[commandomike59]

I thought Napolean Dynamyte just danced ? haha good cover mate !

[korvlada]

Fucking brilliant!:P

[KennilworthyWhisp]

oh my god that was so good! i've never heard the original but your voice is wicked sweet! its very soothing! and i love your hair!

[zuzanakrajickova]

i don't know the original but i love this!

[SuperImi]

Very good =] you are a good singer i like your guitar, keep up the good work =]

[songsbymikedotnet]

ok...i just watched the original prison break video...i like it...but i still like yours, too.

[songsbymikedotnet]

i don't know this song...so i can't really comment on how good a cover it is... but i can tell you that i liked what i heard here today... ;)

[zzzit]

so so good man! well done

[astreakofbadluck]

i like it slow, it's more introspective. plus the tempo in the zuton's version slows down during the chorus anyway.

[kewell01]

a bit slow for my taste, but a damn good slow version of valerie. nice job!

[heron1991]

Amazing.  Slightly faster maybe? Just a thought. . .

[katieshaw4]

clever =]

nice sound :D

[magicnut21]

STUNNING MATE!

[acousticj]

The dog's bollocks mate. Five stars from me.

[littlemissariel]

Love this cover, and that's my name! =)

[cherrypie321]

damn! awesome dude!!

[thetophun8r]

dude that was awesome. what key are you using and what chords (are they modified?) i so wanna learn it the way you play it

[siggieli]

Brilliant dude! great song and you are awesome!

[mauricespaan]

way to sweet, watch kidthing thats how you do this song

[creamsella]

Fantastic sound.

[djambas]

excelente!

[savaledj]

very nice one! Can you play "Jason Mraz - The Remedy"? Can't wait for your next vid!

[monkeyh20]

you need a kick in the balls, that ruined the zutons style

[fluffychick00]

WOW...I like...lol!!

[KrisShred]

Beautiful! :)

[luvzon]

you're awesome..keep on the good work man
