Wow. Not what I was expecting at all. Very dangerous to cover such a masterpiece. You really nailed it--especially the vocals. Got chills. Sounds like you could cover most Pj songs well, not many people can.
in case anybody's wondering what the "make me fries" comments are about, they are referring to the "yellow ledbetter misheard lyrics" youtube video... i'm just saying because i was wondering what that meant until i watched that video
I created a youtube account just so i could "Like" this. You play this amazingly! Even on acoustic, I could hear the whole song as I know it when you played. Find yourself a band, sir.
Overall, a truly great performance. Voice, guitar, and the ability to create an mesmerizing soundscape. Great job.
@sabaqat I've never taken any lessons so I'm sure I don't have proper technique, but I've increased my range just by singing in the car every day. :) I don't stress my voice but the more I sing songs near the limit of my range, the easier it gets.
Man I watch millions of vids on you tube and one in mabey 500,000 times Ill hear A voice like that on someone that isn't already famous. You have A million dollar voice.You should be in A studio. Next time leave the solo out or just change it A bit you know more of an acoustic to match the song.., Id kill for A voice like that though.
@caincolesr Wow! Thank you. I should modify it to leave the solo out or change it up. Id doesn't sound right the way it is without any chords behind it.
how long did this take you man? I just started working on the solo about an hour ago and this is hard as hell, multi finger pulloffs and hammer ons... tough stuff
@CondemnedPatriot It did take a long time. I learned this years ago. I played it pretty sloppily for a long time. :) Just had to play it lots of times.
if i were you..just take your guitar with you...climb on a stage somewhere..(you could leave the solo out) and play and sing...i know for sure you wil get an applause!
i think its great!! do something with you talent!
beautiful ! captured that song pretty damn good. that solo is a tricky one i havnt exactly got it 100% either. love the singing it was awesome hittin that high note around 3:44 5 stars for surre !
Im so relieved you didn't murder this. Very nice cover I think :) Also, vocals are perfect almost, still can't make the lyrics out! haha "on a wizard on a whale" haha cracks me up!
I came into it skeptical due to all the other flop covers on YT, but I got to say, you did a really good job. you got all those little nuances just right, even though your voice is at a different pitch. Again you did a really good job on this cover, giving much respect to Eddie and the crew.
thats was awesome man, im currently learning the song now. i fall asleep to this song almost everynight, hey dont worry bout the solo, singin makes up for it, no one even has to balls to sing with it, so congrats~kade
awesome. great voice. but don't sing it . please. just sing it in your own voice. its like you just took a shit on the mona lisa rubbed it in to change the color of the painting then called it "mona lisa cover".... but dude. i have to say. you have a GOD DAMN AWESOME VOICE. you shoulda sang it like your own, just with the words. i think you should do it again cus you fucking rock man. for real. . .
Amazing cover. And "amazing" doesn't describe this enough. Wow. Do you do an acoustic cover of "Over the hills and far away"? You could probably sing Plant well.
you're so good i want to download this to my ipod... you wouldn't happen to have the file on your computer after all this time, would you? You're AMAZING
you are really good, just like people who are already famous. the guitar is really good, i know you said you screwed up but sounds good to me. the vocals are really really good. you should do your own songs though with your own style, because probably no one else's songs will really match your gift exactly. just like eddie vetter can't sing michael jackson songs. but one thing, when he says make me cry he's talking to the guitar soloist so u probly shouldn't say that to yourself...
great cover. very difficult song and you nailed it. solo was just fine. this is a cover not the original so the solo can be whatever you wanna make it. i think it was perfect. hell of a lot better than i could possibly think of doing.
thanks good song its one thats going to play at my weding. good song for it was made in tribute for a friend of his brother that was killed in the first golf war. and yes my name says it all and i ship out to afghanistan in aug
i like the way you strum ;] don't worry, you just put your own little twist on the solo, made it more your own and awesome rustic voice
