[edwards21416]

SOME young people are special ,extra special .

[rogerstill71]

Impressive!

[PladTheImpaler]

Your imitation of his voice is astonishing! I had to go watch your live videos to prove it to myself (You'd get less of this if your username was something else :P). I just started learning guitar this week and for this you're pretty much my hero.

[sheepsick]

this is a mime job yeh?

[aaron05w10]

no! watch him on his live vids. best thackray cover ever.

[coggy52]

Great performance!! Jake Thackray was such an amazing talent. I remember him on tele (Nationwide) when I was a kid. Top job :-)

[TomPayne101]

do you not know the songs of Jake Thackray?  be If not then please don't so dismissive.

[Janethecopywriter]

You are just fantastic!! What more can I say??

[jakeste]

hi mate i think you are really really good if there was a negative i would suggest you get a classical guitar but you are gonna be a good tribute

[ironmonger100]

You've really achieved the spirit there, bloody well done!

[lgi6868]

I am from Leeds so something of a Jake purist and may i say that this was authentic and excellent please keep it up RIP Jake you old son of a gun love Ade

[welderman444]

well done you are very good

[neo2080]

Wow... You truly are excellent at both playing and singing Jake's music. If my guess (based on the poster behind you) is correct and you are from Sheffield, you should definitely come and play in Hull. I'd come and see you for sure. :-D

[bigconman36]

hi there, thanks for the comment. I take comments like yours as a huge compliment as it is definately me singing. please check out my other videos. I assure you, its me! :)

[jamierourketen]

[vonwurzel]

Uncanny!  You are very talented. Really enjoyed the performance. Well done!

[lexiduncan]

Wow!

[Windowswatcher]

I clicked on this out of interest thinking that it wouldn't be very good.... but I was wiped out! It's a lovely song - very sad, I think and you do it justice and vocally you have his nuances etc. Awesome!

[widowofbrid]

A British friend introduced me to Jake, and sent me pretty much all of Jake's music. As you can see by my sign-on name, this is my favorite Jake... and I really AM a widow. Your vocal quality approximates Jake extremely well, and your fingering technique is excellent. Applause! Love your style...

[Hatsoffmusic]

AWESOME!!! My favourite song :)

[herringthorpe]

Great version, but get rid of that poster for Christ's sake !!

[killcrazy26]

Excellent!

Can you do The Kiss? For some reason it just strikes me that that one would suit you well.

[bazil45]

Great cover Mark The Thickrays!

[drobthemosher]

that sounded excactly like jake, were you lip syncing or something? i swear that was his voice

[bigconman36]

no, thats me singing. my camera is not very good quality and so gives poor lip sync with my singing.

[drobthemosher]

it wasnt that the lip sync is out of time, it was just that your voice sounded almost too much like jake to be real

[rufusrankin]

my word, that was most enjoyable young man! Nice to see Jake's music is still appreciated.

[retroglam73]

torture!! and who da f**k is jake?

[theslybynight]

Voice is spot on - Good Job

[greebo61]

very good. Anyone who keeps Jakes memories alive are ok in my eyes! Is your dada a fan?

[gio133]

Good work, son. Very impressive to see a young lad so into Jake.

[alafamin]

Very....very impressive ! Keep it up... (including the Owls posters !!) Farny Snr.

[superjxband]

That was f---ing brilliant mate you could you be a professional Jake o gram. Well done.

[harryrochester]

Well done cocker,I like to see somebody giving it the full Jake treatment with the voice.

It just upsets me seeing Swillsborough behind you,ditch `em if you do any more eh?

[herringthorpe]

good effort lad, but get rid of the pig posters please.
