Shinedown - One (Acoustic cover)

[RedLesterCheese13]

I heard U2 did a cover of this :-P

[DarkLionInteractive]

@RedLesterCheese13 I see what you did there :D

[zuzakto]

@lilyd11 ?

[Driveshaft12345]

its definitely getting better

[PunkAquarius13]

The best remake I've heard of "One" by U2 was Adam Lambert's version he sang on American idol xD

This is pretty good though :P

[Driveshaft12345]

They did a great job on this tune...I had to favorite it...hell I think I have favorited almost every song I hear from these guys

[rollinaces91]

fuckin love how these guys take a cover and remake it with the passion that it needed...awesome remix

[im0amd62]

Realy bad quality :(

[kmyerslufc1]

as far as acoustic covers are concerned, this is one of the better ones.

[jfatz358]

thought the original version was close to perfection until shinedown made a cover



[Arrrg18]

better than the original

[84emo84]

this sng turns to shit after 4:27 !

[DepthsOfRealityTV]

damn it, i thought it was a metallica cover ;( :L

[CynthiaJanes]

awesome!

[lazarusad]

I think this is a killer song, and I dig Shinedown, but this version is only a few shades off of U2's, and that whiner rock he does at 3:50 just sinks it for me.

Come on Shinedown, you can do better than this eh?

[Optimus4eva]

I thought this was a cover of Metallica's "One", anyone else here make that mistake?

[loveaddict10]

@Optimus4eva Haha... Thats the only reason i clicked to watch it......

[drgoodspd]

@Optimus4eva that would be sweet too....

[jkahan]

@Optimus4eva yup

[SUPERALENUS]

@Optimus4eva me... xP hahaha but the music still beign simply great

[luucja]

@Optimus4eva This is not mistake! Its Shinedown!

[luucja]

@Optimus4eva This is not mistake! Its Shinedown! :)

[Selintriel]

@Optimus4eva yup me. i was like....-_- COME ON!

[tascherman22]

@Optimus4eva Yep I actually thought i'll be Metallica and was praying it wasn't a Creed cover.

[mjoey19]

@Optimus4eva Me :)))) I hoped to be Metallica's "ONE"

[mschleis82]

Its a great song in and of itself. I appreciate that they stripped it down to its essence. Brent's vocal is perfect. He doesn't oversing the song or miss the emotion. He hits the notes and emotion spot on.

[TheFernodragon]

drew081886

What about aerosmith?

[DoronZeus]

One of the greatest bands i know !

[TiltOWhirl]

Sorry, you guys are living in a hallway with no doors and no rooms if you think Brent outsings Bono on this. Don't get me wrong; the guys has crazy pipes (see the 5 acoustic sets from some dude's living room) and is one of my favorite singers, but Bono's ragged/emotional vocals ~2:48 blow Brent away on this. That said, Chris Cornell pwns them both.

[RHCPawsomeness]

how can such an amazing beautiful voice come from such an ugly guy, meant in the nicest possible way, I absolutly love shinedown

[TheCyberman54]

you arent wat tyhe call wrong the best an even more.

[drew081886]

I think there's one thing we can agree on. Musical talent aside, Shinedown is one of the ugliest group of human beings ever assembled.

[demagos009]

@drew081886 I disagree with you, I have seen much worse.

[crakrjak661]

@drew081886 'Ugliest group of human beings ever assembled'...? Its a band, its not about their damn image.

Focus on the musical talent will you?

[childsfan999]

@drew081886 'i think there's one thing we can agree on'

umm... actually we can't agree.

[ahmedtevez]

hmm i am sorry but U2 Ain't that good ... yeah i said it loud and clear !!

[mattressjedi]

@ahmedtevez

Then why the fuck are you here listening to a U2 cover dope? Listen to Shinedown's original tunes fag.

[ahmedtevez]

@mattressjedi dude chill out

[kashmier81]

U2 is on a diferent lvl. however its about 10 lvls under shinedown

[Kniner7]

So U2 writes probably one of the best songs of all time...Shinedown does a cover and they do it better??? Sorry I disagree, I am a Shinedown fan, but U2 is on a different level then most bands today. If someone does a Shinedown cover after they have been around for 30 years I will give them their deserved credit. But it is one of the best covers I have heard.

[eyeman2007]

FINALLY A U2 SONG THAT I CAN APPRECIATE...so glad it's NOT U2 though!

[Lollipop708]

Fuck glee. They covered this. :l They wrecked it. I fucking love shinedown

[madbaby256]

Best frekin band EVERRRRRRR! Brent is freakin AWESOOOOOMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­E

[mtdesignz]

Eat that Bono!!! U2 sucks bawahhaa

[thebailey67]

Bono just lost his job!

[MisterSam1000]

If Brent Smith's voice was a women i would make sweet sweet love to it.

[p2haley]

back when shinedown was cool. great cover.

[cantwellben20]

this is amazing. this blows away all the other versions

[MRMED123]

IF BONO HEARD THIS , HE WOULD DIE OF ENVY!!! BRENT IS THE BEST.

CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HIM AT THE PABST THEATER IN MILWAUKEE, WI NOVEMBER 30 FOR THEIR ACOUSTIC TOUR...

MM

[chosgalindosoriano]

definitely the best cover but Bono is still the man..

[londonblue61]

this is fantastic!!

[Deadcrows1981]

how do i find this song to DL myself?

[Jakekissfan]

Sounds alot like bono

[thebailey67]

@Jakekissfan but better.

[Jakekissfan]

@thebailey67 Idk I'm more of a bono fan but hey Shinedown is good too. xD

[BT1ZER]

Never heard the original =(... Ima go watch it right now =)

[angelaki21]

I love this version much more than the original one.I really love his voice!

[KDub1961]

Incredible. I like this much better than the original U2 version. Thanks for posting.

[happytoad1211]

"best rock singer?" nore like best singer ever well robert plant but still the best of the best

[moron32]

only 23k views???? so many millions are missing out on some epic shit here...

[ohnojoeohno]

Well, I was expecting this to be terrible... and surprisingly its not. Its actually pretty good. Nowhere near the U2 version of course, but its not bad. I usually hate shinedown, but his isn't bad at all.

[jeremyrhodes0218]

this is the most beautifying song by shinedown

[dxdx124]

@jeremyrhodes0218 yea and its by u2 dumbass

[MandrewG]

awesome cover of a great song!...wow....sounds very good.....

[giolessthan3]

beautiful :)

they impress me more each time they perform a song<3

[sevenender]

so amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­

[ratu4000]

@ctru2000 smiths' voice was better for the job.....

[Shiner1991]

i've loved this cover for YEARS, i wish more ppl new about it n wish they'd release it on an EP or something!

[jamessmack]

someone please tell me how this only has 14k hits??

[jamessmack]

brent could drag some kids from a high school band and be great

[addisonshinedown]

Like the cover of Simple Man, I am infinitely impressed with this cover. Very few bands can cover a song and actually improve it. I have to say, here, they've done it, like in the Simple Man cover, but in that one they changed the song enough to make it theirs, in this, they're tackling the song, but not claiming it, so it's just a try at a song where they put their all into it. Impressive.

[frank787922]

I like it.

[terryusa]

I cannot begin to tell you guys how talented shinedown are ! I've not come across a band apart from Rhcp that has changed me so much. There song Second chance, changed me almost instantly. And Call me , makes me reflect.

U2 on the other hand... ¬_¬

[jls1274]

I have seen U2 and Shinedown in concert (several yrs apart). Both are great performers vocally and musically. I love both bands. This song is equally as good as the original

[lopezj4550]

well if you payed  $35 dolllars thats your fucking problem!!

[ElfAttacker]

How dare you put this song on youtube? This song deserves to be bought or to be listened to by Shinedown Fan Nation members, now people are going to just come here and listen to it. Really man, why did you do this? I payed $35 dollars to get into the fan nation, and THAT was when I heard this song. You suck.

[Sk4T3Z3r0]

I heard when I saw the "Shinedown - One [Unplugged] Cover" video on YouTube, then it was taken off.

[13yofrolfer]

It is almost exactly the same as u2's

[bigddetroit]

better

[13yofrolfer]

Only because u are a shinedown fan they are litterally the exact same

[kaleb1414]

its a cover of the song by U2. so yes, it should sound the same..

[Gazoooooodfbudh]

@ctru2000 Same here . . .

[whomitaw]

Brent has such an amazing voice

Happy Birthday Brent!!!

[EliteSonic]

He has a good voice. Not much for the guitar though. :\

[redph0enix2000]

best cover of this song. . and I like this version better. . .brent is awesome

[MarcoFranko]

This guy will go down in history as one of the best vocalists, song writers and musicians of all time. And it couldn't be more deserved.

[ILoveCMPunkForever]

I heard this version before I heard U2's. So, naturally I like this one better. Plus factor in Shinedown is my favorite band, and this song is amazing anyway.

Plus Shinedown...puts so much meaning into the songs they sing. Brent has a very powerful voice. <3

[Sk4T3Z3r0]

I heard U2's before this one and I still like this one better.

[vindicatedafi]

Eh I still like U2s version better

[pacovailoes]

Agreed, but the boys do they job.

[ijsislekkerderdanjou]

i love it so much

brent's voice is amazing <3

[JoeJonasLover123654]

I love Shinedown!!!

[penman1188]

Are you deaf? Brent Smith(lead singer of shinedown) has an amazng voice. I would love for you to name 5 singers with better rock voices. Singing Hard rock music is very difficult. Show some respect.

[tombeals69]

hahahaha... no shit. he's awesome. i like ivan moody from five finger death punch too. i think they are my 2 fav. singers

[lilmsash01]

Love it!

[ravenprey666]

Such an incredibly good song. I actually heard the shinedown version BEFORE I heard the u2 one. (one haha) I personally prefer that the acoustic version is better ... mainly cause I like acoustic music more. Awesome cover 10/10

[AlphaAquila]

This is extremely impressive.

I'm a massive U2 fan and a moderate Shinedown fan, but I have to say that Brent Smith's voice impresses me more and more each time I hear him do something different.

Completely nailed, although it's a near chord-perfect cover at times.

[TheSmithbelynda]

This is the first time I've heard this, I think that Brent is the best rock singer out there today.

[Aaron02890]

@TheSmithbelynda. I think Brent isn't the best rock singer. But he's in the top 5.

1. Brett Scallions (Fuel)

2. Chris Daughtry

3. Adam Gontier (Three Days Grace)

4. Jesse Hasek (10 Years)

5. Brent Smith

[litatyas]

@Aaron02890 god thats a horrible list but ure allowed an opinion

[dxdx124]

@Aaron02890 where the fuck is bono

[Aaron02890]

@dxdx124 I'm not really a big U2 fan.

[77SoUnDoMaDnEsS77]

@Aaron02890 Brent, J. Hasek, Lajon Witherspoon, Brandon Boyd are better than Scallions and Daughtry but Gontier is up there.

[wenser13]

@TheSmithbelynda  He is.

[smakman41]

@TheSmithbelynda Without a doubt, Mr. Smith is thee best rock singer on the planet..The Sound Of Madness album has etched him in a special place..songwriting..and a voice to match and beyond..all 3 Shinedown Albums are epic.

[DarkLionInteractive]

@TheSmithbelynda he's in the top, for sure... but he could be a lot better.... what you hear now is pure, unpolished talent.... think of what he could do with vocal training.... but then again, maybe that's his charm :D.....

[YcantWeAllGetAbong]

@TheSmithbelynda I disagree. I'd have to go with Matt Shultz, or Josh Homme for sure



[JosephTheRocker]

@TheSmithbelynda myles kennedy.....
