Oh my I love Eric Clapton and I think it's flippin fantastic that a highschool student, like myself is into him to! Great cover too really nice voice:)
holy...nice!@!@!@!@the best cover ever man..keep it up..wish u all the best bro...btw 9 people doesnt even know what ''cover'' means..so just ignore em....237 peeps will kill em..
I'm using this song in a story I'm writing. =D its perfect for the mood. All credit will go to the original artist of course, but I thank you for the idea.
Yes, you deserve it, great performance, great voice, a little mistake with the guitar at 3:34 nothing major, you are the best player at this song i ha ve ever seen tell me something, where you in a competition. Great voice, great guitar man you rule that song up! congrats
mmm, one common mistake is to enlarge the singing, this beautiful ladyyyyyyyyyyy liiiiiighttssss, toniiiiiightt, that takes off the rythm of the song, besides he is like singing in a hurry.
If anybody knows what kind of guitar effects did he used for this song... i was wondering if its reverb pls i would really appreciate it i need to play this song for someone's sweet 16... thank you very much it sounded so nice and teh singing too...
oxida93 : how can you think his voice is just okay?that was excellent, the singing and the guitar. takes guts to do that in front of like a whole school.
i'd have to agree with oxida, he's practically yelling some parts of the song. overall it was a good performance, guitar was brilliant. but yeah, his voice wasn't "great" as most of the comments are saying.
I thought it was excellent but I guess Im just deaf. I'm a guitarist, so when I hear quality singing and guitar playing I feel like the entire song was done exceptionly well. But then again that's just me.
BEST COVER I'VE SEEN. Its very hard to sound like Clapton, therefore its very hard to sing his songs. You were able to do it your own though. AWESOME!!
Ahh. It's still a pretty sexy guitar. It looked exactly like mine, and i've got the highway 1. I didn't know that the mexican strats had any with cherry fret boards. Regardless, great playing.
Thanks man. Yeah a couple years ago when I was just starting out I saw that guitar at the store and fell in love with the sunburst finish and had to buy it haha. I replaced it with an American Standard Deluxe with that fancy S-1 Switch knob thing or whatever, it's way better.
Well that's strange. I wasn't expecting to see Paul McDonald on youtube when I searched Wonderful Tonight covers. I didn't know you played this, but I saw you a bunch at the 07 talent show (I was a Freshman last year).
Nice cover!!! What kinda guitar is that?

When Chuck Norris can't sleep, he teleports Paul into his room to sing this as a lullabye.
He has to quasi-consciously keep a forcefield around Paul though, 'cuz his every one of Chuck's snores causes a sonic boom.
