[bombaymatt]

Might get me a banjo, its refreshing to see someone not taking it all so seriously too.

I liked it!!!

[ThrowMeAPillow]

too much fun at 1:30-1:45!

[sufbass]

Girl.. you are so perfect!!!!!!! congratulations!!!!!!

[clean3]

There’s something a little condescending about the description and the performance; but then the modern trend of putting an ironic twist on well known and this case transcendentally beautiful songs just irritates me.

[augie9425]

beautiful song, beautiful girl, and a beautiful rendition

[johnnoflan]

Awesome stuff, great use of the tenor banjo

[SandCrab23]

FAIL

[MrJimdeb]

Great.

[DoofsterDan]

MIGosh! You sound SO much like Maria Muldaur and Nora Jones! What a voice!!! You MUST keep that up!

[romwidoly]

This is a nice version of that tune, and you have a great voice. What kind of banjo is that? And is that a raised head?

[patchbod]

Ummm.. Are you real?

[McLenison]

Enjoyed that! Certainly different and it works well! Thanks!

[cooley23]

That is fantastic! I love it!

[Woody2chuck]

Very enjoyable; but the smile is terrific - please post some more.

[Droyd21]

This might come off a little strange but despite you being from San Francisco...your accent sounds...Belgian ?

[ebradbrah]

Brilliant playing and Brilliant Singing

[JSmituru]

とっても素敵

[mayckelironmaiden]

Súper bien eso es talento yo no sé por qué no invitan a gente así a los programas de televisión en lugar de a tanto artista mediocre que hay en estos tiempos.

Feliciataciones sigue así

[hotastro]

Beautiful version of a classic. Keep it up! Joe

[peu239]

I love your voice and playing... but that smile is worth watching the video!

[BeachBoysGuy1]

Very sweetperformance.lovelye

John hunter Phillips

[smileysmile1]

You have taste young lady ;o) Carl Wilson (his brother) sang it at 19 yrs old. Brian and Tony Asher composed it. One of Paul McCartneys if not his favourite love song. Considering it is 43 yrs old it is still timeless.

[gmaj0r]

Thanks for this! Thanks a lot.

[grafleinsdorf]

I was really moved listening to this song. Thanks.

[4mixolydian]

mercedezzz i am a bossa guitarist (jazz and blues,also - but after seeing how good you are at moving harmony - oh belo!

[4mixolydian]

there must be men lined up on I-65 from alabama to chicago just to get a glimpse and a listen - just the fact that mercedezzz picked this song - wow - i'm guessing the other brian wilson song this beauty would contemplate would have to be 'good timing' or 'in my room'

[haifasun]

is this the most beautiful girl in the world?

[4mixolydian]

yes i just think that it just may be the 'most distinctive possibility to date' and she sounds pretty good too

[conmaesta]

Sweet, and so are you sweety.

[97951]

Nice interpretation of a legendary song and the banjo - I love it.

[garrypruden]

many thanks !!! again!!! it's on my favorites

[garrypruden]

[b0nnie]

[cariuskc]

[journeymanjim]

[wazooavenue]

God only knows what I would be if it weren't for accidentally coming across this video. mercedezzz you are just the sweetest thing...

[Byyrd]

JAzzy version..kinda cute

[regulos1]

*-* pretty amazing.

[carefulspaceman]

wow what an awesome cover! you have such an amazing voice. I wish you'd covered the whole coda part, though. still, thanks for making my day!

XD

[iulenny]

You have a voice that reminds me of Lisle from Sound of Music, that's a compliment as probably know.

[SmokieMac]

"Simple little song"? Are you kidding? I thought a couple of your fingers were going to fall off playing those "simple" chords.

Beautiful voice. Nicely done!

[erikviking]

Your voice is so classic, this is rad!

[tarmenmin]

My favorite mercedezzz-song;-P

[prescient8]

[joshuathebarbarian]

Hey, I was wondering what your banjo was tuned to for this, is it standard tenor?

[allycat114]

i don't care for it. no offense but not the best i've heard.

[rtez1284]

your are a good teacher and very beutiful.

good luck

[treatyourselftolunch]

This was a joy to watch. As someone else said, you have a very appealing cavalier style, but not at the expense of structure. Very nicely done, and I'll be checking out your other stuff.

[DankossASKREW]

wow totaly didn't expect such a voice

wow

[rickcee]

Adorable! Ummm, I mean, really good. Really good.

[derbesy4]

pretty, but not simple.

[LUISBANJO]

YOU ARE BEUTIFUL

[lizzyshakuntala]

i love your voice!!

and how you so casually sing the tunes....

[livewireinsa]

Had it not been for Linda Ronstadt I would have never made a pass throuh here. I have been involved with music since I was nine years old and I am just hoping your music hits

go through the 30,000 mark. It's all worth it. Just keep have lots of fun doing these Mercedes. It's all going to give you back much more.

[n0nnie66]

vc interpreta mto bem!

[LeoJokela]

Love Love Love.

[harbour94]

Wow! That was great!!

[birdstuckinchimney]

When I watch your vids Im always refreshed bey the fact you don't take yourself too seriously

[konabold]

Can I marry you? or adopt you? or can my son marry you?

YOu are sooooo sweet. My fave song--now my fave singer!

[edsphoto]

[aw5959]

Her Voice is better than playing vanjo.

[birdstuckinchimney]

I've never play vanjo. Is it by Mattel?

[tremolux66]

Really sweet -- nice take on a great song!

[moogrocker]

you have a beautiful voice and an even better sense of rythmic creativity

[abrahamjacobfriedman]

hello everybody, you've reached the greatest video on youtube. in fact, it does't really get much better than this in the world. teaching immigrants to ballroom dance? you cant make up a person this great.

[MartialGandhi]

This is one of the top vids on youtube... It sure deserves more views

[37361811]

[zunk11]

Very Nice. Thanks!

[Joeychitown]

The vocals are the best part!

[martindop1]

I menat "Holland"

[martindop1]

By the way, I'm from Holland. Did you know they have an album called: " Hollan"?

[martindop1]

If you really know the Beach Boys you should do a version of Surf's Up on the banjo.

Regards,

Martin

[martindop1]

hello there,

well I'm enjoing this song for about 25 years, and now I see you playing this song on an banjo..!!!! Amazing! I really like your banjo-version of this song.

Regards,

Martin

[twtom]

Lovely.

[Rynstrom]

oh, god... that was wonderful... the way she sings it... and indeed she has a very pretty face, too... nice work! Ü

[crystalwrx]

[Amiro22]

In all honesty, you have the most beautiful smile I have ever seen in my entire, entire life. Your ability is amazing too.

[thewerle]

I discovered your stuff today and have been watching video after video. I love your selection of stuff to cover, keep it up.

[galexspy]

Stunningly beautiful and fresh! You' ve touched me where it counts. Don't stop. One more rose please!

[ex0pos]

simple little pretty little rendition... but the song itself goes a *tad* deeper than simple, little, and pretty, doncha think?

[seaustinfilms]

This is really good...whered you get that banjo? i havent seen them four stringed like that.

[straussie]

you're really lovely, i watch this often :)

[martinmartin11]

[RockabillyRandy]

MY FAVORITE SONG IN THE WORLD! Amazing! Thankkkk you <3

[justinplank]

that's so pretty

[pascumia]

sweet sweet sweet...

[poemasgallegos]

Is wonderful Mercedezzz. Beautiful

[fogg1264]

That was brilliant! Great voice & banjo playing.

[akshar9]

You surprise me - not bad at all - try other Brian Wilson songs - Caroline No - or even This whole world

[iceguyred123]

Not really too keen on the banjo ... would've preferred a guitar.

Singing is quite nice and pleasing, and easy on the ear.

But the best thing about this vid is that you're really quite cute and dreamy

I'll be checking this one out again

Oh ! Please make my day and tell me your single, lol!

P.S. this is my first post on Youtube

[mistyflips]

this is my favourite song and you do it so well... thanks :) You're beautiful

[jesse1970ss]

loved it,great cover

[PaulStaveley]

Beautiful voice - lovely version!

[LoveSculpture]

Very good

[jhrunion]

you have a lovely voice. a very original, unique take on a classic song. thanks!

[LastingsGriller]

I think I love you.

[michmakker]

You gave me a big smile. It's a wonderful song. Keep it up!

[shanicles]

ahh, haven't listened to this in months, an old favourite :) hope all is good

[qazwsx12369]

Wow Brian Wilson is such a Musical Genius! What puzzles people is that he doesn't even realize it! At least Mike Love does and steals the Beach Boys from him, hehehe what a bald talentless prick raking in all the money!!

[MartialGandhi]

can't stop watching this man! You sing great, and you're sexy too!

[edwardledbetter]

i think i just found my wife.

[MartialGandhi]

you're mad good!

[hereonly2learn]

thankyou. makes me sad for sensing that this simple pleasure of a friendly girl singing a song with a sweet voice and kind face is something i have been missing. i wish you all the happiness and thanks for breathing a little life into my lost soul.

[saganini]

A very calm and beautiful voice.

I like.

[martin2288]

very nice mercedez! :D

[pazure]

Wow lady. You exhibit all the signs of upcoming fame. Get some voice lessons and really work on sticking those notes, tighten up your voice control, throw your voice more confidently, your phrasing is almost perfect, as is your stage presence. Your musical skills are also obviously high, but also need a bit of burnishing. And to top it all off you are an absolute sex kitten. You have GOT to go into entertainment. Talent scouts will hunt you out. Best of luck!!

[MSfeller]

What a sweet voice you have, darling! I think that you have what it takes to go out there and get famous, if that's what you want. You are so pretty, talented, and you are SOOOO charismatic! It will be a hit! Love your simple ways and your pretty voice.

[williamnilly]

What a sweet rendition!

[kgsullivan]

god only knows wasn't written in seven minutes, nor is it remotely simple

[Lizawhizz]

Have you recorded anything professionally? Because I would totally buy your album.

[RussellDreck]

Very nicely done. You've got a great voice, too!

[friendof1979]

Beautiful.

[whotookaegir]

Very jazzy voice.

[canopin]

Cantas muy bien. Saludos desde Colombia.

[zoroisdead]

damn't I don't want to sound like everyone else who commented, but i think I'm in love, I don't even know I could cry, 20 years old, never cried before I saw you play that song, beyond words
