  • Man you have a fantastic voice. It was made for classic country music. You should try some Lefty Frizzell songs if you havent allready. I will have to check out your channel for sure. Stop by my channel sometime for a visit.

  • love your voice

  • the 10 dislike, are mad at themself cause they try to sing like him and it dont work so good, but let me tell you theres singers on CMT that cant sing like that, hank williams is proud.......your no 1 here in canada.......

  • standard or altered tuning?

  • James, give it some emotion. Its a ballad, about a man in Prison getting ready to die! You've got a good voice, just get into that song and make it yours...

  • Has anyone told you that your voice sounds like it belongs to a 35 years old man? Your face looks too young for that mature voice.

  • OK Very good. Going to watch and listen to a few more before I really comment.

  • Good voice. Great song.

  • Great song!

  • That's where I heard him too. The Ellen show! I think he has an amazing voice. I can't get enough! I'm officially a fan :)

  • wow, this guy is fantastic, I'm glad Ellen showed his video on her show, so that I can hear him sing on my own computer any time I want to. Love the songs he does.

  • Wow, awesome. Great job.

  • I think you are an amazing singer and I find myself sitting for hours listening to your videos. I will DEFINITELY be buying your album!! It is SOOO awesome to hear a young singer singing the TRUE country music songs!! Nobody done it quite like Merle. Keep it up man....I am in complete awe.

  • beautiful

  • great job.. i'llbebuying your album.. best regards from Co.Derry, Ireland..

  • Well done. It's great to see people like you who are keeping this music alive.

  • Hello there james! I enjoy all your covers! Keep uploading. You've got a great voice! I hope you're a country singer now.

  • hey man ive been listenin to ur songs u got ur own sound man dont worry bout what these people are sayin i used to play guitar for tracy bird , u got a good voice man dont worry bout any critics man just keep this up

  • Great voice my friend ....keep it up

  • You have a nice voice, but you need to develop your own style. The streets in Nashville are lined with starving singers who sound just like (insert your favorite singer here). Good luck.

  • to the record companies out there. you need to sign this guy.

  • You are GOOD, but my advise is get your own Idea for YOUR songs. You have a good voice.

    You will never take Merle's place.

  • very good, i dig me some merle haggard. the only bit of advise i can give is sing it like the guy living the story, not the guy reading it.

  • great cover man didn't expect tha deep voice

  • I just loved it. 5*****

    Cheers from Belgium

    Eric - Studio ChinChan

  • here mate u should do merle haggard - i can be my self

    Jesse Walker

  • This is from a guy who grew up listening to the real Merle Haggard.

    You are great.

  • nice job! a hell of alot beter than the other covers you see on here

  • once again you nail another one of my favorites, great job

  • you are the best singer i have heard in a while you sing from the heart

  • Not bad at all kid!, surprised me all together!, Keep it up, you have a god given talent....

  • Wäre ich sein Manager, wäre der Junge schon millionenschwer !!!!

  • I have been a fan of Merle Haggard for many years and I think you did a great job on this song. I agree on the one comment of getting the record deal. I think the "clean country sound" is almost a lost art. Why don't you bring it back??

  • do you do george jones?

  • This is my fave song by Merle. I still remember seeing him in concert when I was a little girl. You did a great job on covering this song, I am sure he would feel honoured!

  • I'm a "singer" too...and you suprised me. Great tones, man. Go get that record deal!

  • marry me :)

  • You are fantastick, you touch me, everytime I hear you sing, When you made an album, I will be the first one to buy it.

  • why does this guy cover every odd choice song I love

  • d a g no capo

    i dont know how to read music

    but that is what the cords are by my ear

    great job

  • my mate is a big merle fan and he says thats the best cover he's ever heard .thanks a lot.

    from england.

  • very very good m8t xx

  • Geil !!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • nice bro... you should be a singer... Salute !!

  • wow

  • This is really good. Can you do some more of the "older" country singers .....Can you do Don Williams .... "This must be love". ? Thanks

  • Don Williams "Your My Best Friend" would be great too!

  • This is the stuff you should be singing, but you do everything well! (my personal preference is all) :)

  • whoa wasnt expecting that. Nice voice!

  • I concur with all the other good reviews, LOVELY SOUNDING VOICE

  • Ich bin immer wieder fasziniert, wie der Bengel alle richtigen Töne trifft. Dagegen ist "Deutschland sucht den Superstar" die letzte Scheisse. Sorry.. - GREAT !!!!

  • U should sing Fighting side of me

  • Excellant, I was introduced to Merle Haggard via my Uncle's 8 track in his car! This is one of my favourites.

  • great job. i think you would do good on another old hag tune. it's called uncle lim. keep making em and i'll keep listening.

  • Great. You have a marvelous voice! You can hear the weariness and weight of the world felt by the protagonist in the song. And yet, there is also a sense of hope that comes through. Yours is definitely the best cover of this Haggard tune I have heard.

    Keep up the great work. Thanks to Kay for sending it my way.
