  • great cover man! check out mine aswell :)

  • :O my god...

  • This has been sitting on the list of recommended videos for me for awhile and I decided to check it finally. very glad I did, it is amazing. I love the original so much but I honestly can't decide whether yours is better or worse, they seem so different in some way that I just cant compare the two. The are the same song but it feels like you made it your own. Love it.

  • i didnt know vinny played guitar

  • Sheer Power drives the lyrics home wow you are amazing mate. Loving all your work here. What a voice.

  • @startwanger Thank you very much my friend, awesome of you to say. Cheers, Bradly

  • Amazing simply amazing!! And without a capo sounding that good ur awesome!

  • you are really amazing! dig all ur videos! :)

  • very nice! You have a great tone to your voice and good control!

  • man everyone else uses a capo i want to learn to play it like that

  • @xpoopypoopsx

    I believe he is capoed 5 just like Ben Gibbard and everyone else.

  • @xpoopypoopsx yeah i play it without a capo too... it sounds a lot different with one i wish i had one

  • HOTMAIL4eVeR98: I agree, but Lady Gagas Pokerface isn't exactly what I would call quality music. When this guy sings it, it sounds completely different, THAT was what I meant when I wrote the turning crap into gold. ;-)

  • great :]

  • really good dude, really good!

  • (: Great Job!!

  • I normally don't like covers, but you did an AMAZING job with this one!

  • He does an amazing job on all his covers. You should check out the rest of them, this guy is the King Midas of music: He turns crap into gold. Seriously.

  • but this song is the opposite of crap. so..

  • weeee awesome!!!!

  • havent heard the original but i can listen to your tunes and like them straight away keep it up

  • he can stress the words as long as he want's

    it's a COVER for a reason.

    it's not meant to sound JUST like dcfc.

    just saying

  • Well I'm one of your greatest fan ^^ Another song and I still hear you with a big pleasure !

  • the guitar is excellent, but i agree that he draws the words out a bit too long. Otherwise its great!

  • David beckham ?

  • no.. Bradley Akeman

  • No no... its Christian Bale for sure.

  • nonono!!! you're way off!!! it's Chris Tucker!!! :D

  • its tony danza

  • That was as good as the real thing , Great cover!!!

  • Death Cab rocks U.u'

  • you have a beautiful voice.

    pure genuine talent.

  • i love this!

    i sing harmony to you!

  • amazing

  • very nice!

  • very good

  • IF YOU EVER COMPARE HIM TO BRAD PITT AGAIN I WILL HUNT YOU DOWN !! i love brad.

    but anyway, you have a really beautiful voice. american idol !

  • @aceofcuppycakes

    Your giving him a lil bit to much Credit.

    Dont get me wrong it was really really good. But, how your describing it, it seems like its better than ben's, but its not. But really really good job.

  • you have a good voice dude

  • hes so cute and i didnt see a wedding ring lol great vid

  • HAHA dude you look like a mix between jack shepard(lost) and brat pitt ! lol

  • Brilliant! Thank you for sharing this.

  • this is my favourite song! : D

    seriously, you're awesome

  • U did a GREAT job, Mister.

    TY for that.

    J

  • Love your voice.

  • Kinda Bryan Adams'y

  • great shit man, everbody i see uses a capo, and you just straight up played that shit. WOW bro good stuff man!!!!!!!!

  • That as a good, if not better than the original :)

    Great job.

  • You did a good job on this. And thanks for showing your hand. It makes it alot easier to learn .

  • it doesnt hurt to be a little unique!!

  • What would be the point in covering songs unless you added a little something of yourself to it? Covers to have to be exact copies of the original, some of the best covers are completely different from the original!!

  • its called a cover for a reason, your supposed to change it up

  • You totally got the idea of a cover wrong. Anyway i think this version is better. Kind of expresses the emotion of the song better.

  • A cover doesnt really mean you have to play it as it was written.....u can put your own spin on it and i think he did a great job.

    He really feels it

  • A cover is when you redo a song in your own way. It's not suppose to be exactly like the original...

    He did the cover fine and I almost liked it better than the original. :]

  • Hey Nickelbatx...I very much like this cover, but for you to say that bradntampa, who learned the song the day before this vid was recorded "expresses the emotion of the song" better than the great Ben Gibbard who WROTE the song is just ridiculous...ridiculous!

  • i agree, ridiculous

  • very nicely done .. you've a very nice voice

  • you are the best...I could keep on repeating it all day long... great great job

  • wow,

    this is my favourite song
