  • Nicer cover, well done and very heartfelt. Your affection for the song comes right through.

    From an album that's unfortunately not well known in the U.S.A. Always ends up being misfiled with show-tunes and soundtracks, when it's really one of the best progressive rock concept albums ever.

  • very nice.

  • Added to favourites :)

  • Great job!

  • believe it or not, the original version was NOT written for War Of The Worlds, it actually predates it by a number of years.

    The original track was recorded by Vigrass And Osborne - have a look on Wikipedia :)

  • i haven't heard this song for while but i know you play it just great!!! good voice!

  • amazing guitar playing and amazing voice you should go on x factor americann Idol you will have my vote well done!!!

  • this is brilliant mate!

  • I think you sound so amazing - I always loved this song and you did it perfect. I can't believe someone hasn't posted tabs or done a lesson yet it, as I see so many for other Moody Blues songs and old classic rock, and I can't finger that opening - it doesn't look too hard to do. I see others have asked you for help. It would be really appreciated. Anyway, I'll try some more...Thanks so much for this lovely song. 5 Stars!

  • capo on 5th fret, then transposed play

    1st string open, 2nd string 3rd fret (relative) 2nd str. 1st fret (relative, everything, my friend, is relative :D ) 2nd str 3rd fret, 2nd str open, 2nd string 1st fret, 3rd string 2nd fret. you can see how he fingers it -- its a really elegant solution! rest -- chords and stuff -- you can either find online or figure out by ear, it's almost hard to do it wrong, he plays it so intuitively :)

    (and sorry for horrible tab, I think YT would ruin a normal one)

  • Then why's his capo on the 6th fret?

  • sorry for the late reply, my capo is on the 6th fret because I tune my guitar down slightly to make things easier on my vocals in general :)

    and big thank you to FW01AD for the props and tab explanation

    -Clint

  • can you tell me what chords/ tab you used for this please? ive tried looking on the internet for the chords but they seem to be wrong slightly each time. i listened to your version and i was absolutely stunned-amazing cover!

    for the tabs, i dont mind with cappo or without because it'll just be lower down the fret board but relative to the vocals.....thankyou!

  • That was 4:02 of listening pleasure. Thanks for posting Clint.

  • This is one of my favorite Justin Haywood songs, and you have covered it superbly Clint!! Great acoustic, great vocals.....well done buddy, brilliant!!! :0)

  • Amazing, absolutlty amazing. Well done.

  • brilliant loving your covers great voice

  • Nicely done!

  • OMG. Absolutely beautiful! Justin is proud I am sure!

    Any chance you could do an instructional for this? Pleeeese?

  • whoa!! i love this, awesome cover!! 5/5*

  • Clint, got this saved to my favourites & have had for a long time, stumbled on it again 2night & i re-realised why, fantastic version buddy, guitar playing is 'absitively' spot on, love it, hats off to you dude, well done, many enjoyable moments.
