the first time i heard this song I was determined to learnt it by ear and make the first authentic piano cover. I've been working on it everyday since 3 months on trying to make it sound as perfect and similar to Butler's version. Please have a look at it and thank you for your feedback!!

dont ge me wrong cuz i love every second but my favorite part is prop 1:21 to 2:35 it just overruns me. but the whole thing does. just sayin my fave part. love this song as much as air. stay beautiful
Butler is such an underated guitarist. I play the twelve string and my admiration for him increased massively after I started playing. It is INSANE and breath-taking skill here....
Imagine you're flying away from someone or something....it gains on you....it gains on you.......you soar away and break through the trees and the clouds and burst through the daggon stratosphere into a billion stars with everyone you love at your side. that's this song. victory happy dance at the end
This song got me into JBT now...Ocean, Zebra, Used to Get High. THIS STUFF IS AMAZING! TO QUOTE ANOTHER YOUTUBE COMMENT FROM A QHILE AGO "I GET CARPAL TUNNEL JUST FROM WATCHING THIS GUY!"
Words would only diminish the unearthly power of John's musical genius. Thanks again for giving us the opportunity, and privilege of seeing you perform this gem of yours at the Commodore ballroom in Vancouver. To your Health & Happiness, Cheers!!!!! Rob
i was watching this video and around 4:30 i decided to download a mp3 of ocean but when i was pausing the video my laptop hanged and it got ok just after the video was over...
One of the coolest parts of this performance is that when he messes up at 7:09 he makes the same mistake right after on purpose to smooth out the mistake to make it sound better, and then goes right back to what he was doing previously. You gotta be quick and smart to pull that off.
i prefer this version to others, but i love love love that they all sound a little different. each version has it's own personality. thanks for sharing with us!!
why isnt there a good version of this on youtube!!! i need this readily available every five minutes or else i suffer from awesomeness deprivation!!!!!............no but seriously why isnt there a good version of this on itunes
I was in Florence this weekend and saw the David by Michelangelo. And can you believe it, as I sat there staring at easily the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in my brief existence, it was this song that was playing in my mind. I can't explain the feeling in words, but this guy has some idea what it was that I felt. Thats for damn sure.
this is funny, u see people that look just like him in fremantle, and thats where he use to play,,, and all they do is smoke weed and busk and they dont work. but this guy is like a diamond in the rough
This music is on a huge effect on my mood and even how I see life.
The first time I saw this video I did not know the work of John Butler, I found by accident, and now I think I should be one of my lucky day, I hear it daily.
A true artist is one who puts his feeling what he does, and that makes the admirers of his work to discover more about themselves, and this is what happens when I hear this song.
Everyone who hitted the dislike button should burn alive, it is impossible to not like this song. It's got so much soul and passion, rythm and variation of genres. Everyone I know got goosebumbs at a certain part.
