You have a lot of emotion, but I don't think singing is particularly your thing. I think it's great that you've sung this after you've always wanted to though!
I've followed Outrageous Thoughts for a long time and didn't know you had this channel. wow. But then you didn't know I had one iether. One of my favorite songs.
amazing voice. its different to the other versions iv heard. but that's not a bad thing. you get the emotion across when needed, and in a song like this its the emotion of the words that make it so pleasing and special. well done, keep it up.
you would pleased me if you tell me the hidden meaning of this song....so maybe i covered it to...i dont mean it but i want to know the meaning of it...1993sfs
Good for you, following your dreams & putting yourself out there. Nice tonality to your voice, but what I think draws us to his song is the level of emotional complexity you were speaking of. Cohen's voice wasn't technically pretty. It's the pain, the soul behind his voice that connects us to this song. What would add to your performance, I think is drawing from a place of pain in your own life, & letting your audience share in that. This is your story. Own it. Convince others you've lived it.
Your voice is great, but I feel that it got forced when singing this song, so some parts are too strong, othere are to soft. Maybe it's because of the breathing, the way you sing, I can't point it out. It sounds a little rushed, too.
This was very good. However, just some things to maybe look at, cause no one's voice is perfect (especially mine):
Rhythm/tempo: You seem to be rushing into the lyrics at parts, try to relax, calm down and get into a nice rhythm.
High notes: Some notes sound a little bit strained, but only over time will that get better, so just keep going man.
I know it seems like all I'm doing is criticising but it really was great, the guitar, the passion, your tone, your voice and sound overall is great :)
I'm not hating or trollin' i think your voice is amazing and you have so much potential, I just thing raising notes needs a little work, other than that spot on :)
After seeing the comments below, I was worried about what I was going to hear but to ME, you aren't that bad at all. I think some voice lessons would be helpful. I wouldn't go rushing off to X Factor or American Idol because I do think they would send you home. Keep working at it, you have a lot of potential!! Thanks for asking me to listen!
awesome guitar may want to work on getting your voice a little less choppy in the beginning but i also loved the chorus like i said ur awesome just keep following ur dreams
mehhh... not fantastic, just good. you could go far with voice training to learn how to breathe, and how to show what you interpret of the song correctly through the voice. the voice is an incredible instrument as it can be worked on so many different levels - tempo, volume, timbre blah blah blah. great video nonetheless, good taste.
Man, you've improved a lot since last I checked in. Very impressed with your progress, it's a total testament to the power of perseverance. Difficult song to attempt too, with so many excellent versions to compare it to. Keep on keeping on.
Hi Peter. I am one of Your subscribers and friends on YouTube. And You know what? When I saw the title, it was enough for me to give the thumb up on this video. But then I listened... and I had to add this to my favourites. This is my favourite song last days, and Your performance... You are really good :)
I feel you missed the point of the song. Your interpretation is about sadness, but the song is a tongue in cheek, it is full of sarcasm and irony. "Your faith was strong but you needed proof..." You performance is too straight-forward for what this song is.
you have to put 100% percent heart into this song, he doesn#t do that, i mean my favortie version is, believe it or not, of bon jovi doing it, beautiful, perfect lyrcis and arrangement, k.d. Langs is also perfection, leonards original is great and jeffs is the one that put it onto the public consciusoness, good version too.
You're spot on with the pitches and tones. I love how you play around with the crescendos and decrescendos. This is such a beautiful piece, you have to be able to get the melody just right, which you are able to do. I really like this video too. Well done!
This is one of my favoriite songs in the whole world and I usually don't like most covers (except for Jeff Buckley) but I thought you did well. Stay strong and never let anyone bring you down. I agree with timhately09...the high note isn't really needed. All in all I thought it was really good. :) Bless you.
Camera is good, hardware is good, mix is great, voice is okay, but the accent, because I'm asian, I can't stand it. And more precisely, I have uncles that can do better, but have the same accent problem that disturbs me. And also you have this floatty asian voice that makes you loose power and precision. But I really like the overall sound.
Not bad at all man. the guitar is beautiful, your key is for the most part always on, but your tempo is not that great. Keep singing!!!! you can only get better!
How can people dislike this? WOW
