  • best cover Ive ever seen. AMAZING!!! YOURE AMAZING!!! I have been playing guitar for 4 years now and thats one of my favorite songs to cover and let me tell you...you made snow patrol proud! Im already a fan.

  • you look alot like my older cousin :) I wish he could sing even half as good as you XD

    If I ever get the chance, can I use this song? I'll give you credit

  • my gosh, that was refreshing. thank you.

  • Beautiful!

  • brilliant song, really good cover!

  • You are so good

  • This is simply the absolute best song you have ever covered sir. The original does, in my opinion, not stand up to your version at all.

  • @mountainheap Bullshit... it's a great cover like... but no one can beat the original.

  • @Krissyxxlyn I like the original as well, but for some reason I personally find this version actually a tad better. But you are free to disagree! :)

  • the guitar playing is so beautiful, speechless

  • i can't turn off and go to bed....you should be selling albums..!!!!

  • Hot damn that was good!

  • damn, that really made me whipe a tear out of my eye. The feeling you gave me by playing this song, just wow, something i haven't felt in a long, long time.. Can you please make an arrangement of Teardrop from massive attack, i think you can really add something to that particular song. With lot's of love and awe.

  • @mslemontee kudos to that

  • There are so many very bad covers of this song on youtube. But his one is really amazing! Ortopilot's voice is beautiful!

    Snow Patrol's original is the best but I also love this version. Million times better than the diva-style of Leona Lewis.

  • Your voice is so soft and peaceful. This definitely competes with the original.

  • Utterly amazing. You have a beautiful voice, and while I love the original, yours is really great. Guitar-playing is amazing, too. Did you do the background vocals, too? Wow, I'm just in awe. I think I agree with the other commenters--I like this as much or more than the original.

  • You voice and the harmonizations sound perfect ! it's amazing, I must say I like it better than the original.

    I'm not so in love with how you changed the guitar intro, but it's still good.
