YEAH!! i LOVE it!! TONS of enthusiasm!! it really adds to the atmosphere and style of this cover and really makes it stand out! keep it up!!

[johnclinebell]

@Jc3intelligent i think with enthusiasm is the only way to play this song. could you imagine johnny cash ever covering this?

[cobstructive]

love it mate, well done, very enthusiastic and brill song to cover!

Can you tell the chords you play from 0.48-0.52 please.

[johnclinebell]

Thanks @cobstructive, you're a gentleman and a scholar. I believe it's quickly switching from F G D C G. I made a video response to this that goes over everything if you need it broken down further :)

[ectodoc]

I love this cover, good interpretation!!!

!!!

: )

[johnclinebell]

@ectodoc thanks for the comment! it's my #1 youtube hit ;)

[johnclinebell]

@joseph3258 thanks! always happy to exceed the very low expectations people seem to have of me for some reason :/ - haha

[Paul360Guitar]

Never thought about doing this song but after hearing you sing it I want to learn this song. NICE!!

[johnclinebell]

If you learn it I hope you record it and post it as a reply to this vid!

[Paul360Guitar]

I'm having a hard time with the strumming on this. Any ideas?

[petewaynewillard321]

What a hoot! I met a plumber thats gotta hear your version today in killeen, tx, while doin a cheesy remodel at Ft Hood, your the best, man.

[johnclinebell]

Thanks man. I'm wondering... What's a cheesy remodel in Ft. Hood look like?

[SheilaStyre]

Play on!! Love it!

[karatechick102]

hey could you tell us the chords you used to play this?

[johnclinebell]

@karatechick102 i need to relearn this for street performing anyways, so sure. it will probably take me a few days to post tabs but you'll be the first to know.

[redhockey]

...could i be 2nd? :P

[johnclinebell]

@redhockey sure thing! i opened for toad the wet sprocket last night, and that took up a lot of time planning and practicing. but sometime next week i should be able to do it :)

[christopherrsee]

Haha. You look and move just like dusty dinklemen in the movie just friends when he plays the guitar. great cover though

[johnclinebell]

@christopherrsee haha you're not the only person who's told me i look like klein. never seen that movie. is it any good?

[rock2metal666]

WHY!!!! do u build me up love that part

[johnclinebell]

@rock2metal666 thanks, that's my signature move in that vid, fo sho!!!

[yoao360]

BEST COVER EVER WITHOUT DISCUSSION , dude if you could make a video lesson about this song including the strumming pattern i would thank you so much

[johnclinebell]

thanks, that's some awesome praise you're throwin' my way... don't have time to make a lesson, but thankfully you can see most everything I'm doing on the vid. oh, and I'm totally self-taught so nothing I'm doing is rocket science :)

[johnclinebell]

@yoao360 hey i just posted a video response to it that shows the chords. not much i can do to teach the strumming technique, but i do a lot of muting with the palm of my right hand to go along with the percussive strumming. let me know if you have any specific part you're having trouble with!

[biose7en]

excellent

[angellofire]

I first saw this video almost two years ago. Up to this day, I still look it up once in a while just to hear you sing it. You look like you really enjoy singing the song, keep it up!

[johnclinebell]

i'm happy this little cover is my most popular vid on here. nearly 20K views thanks to people like you! :) and yeah, i really love the vibe of the song. it's fun!

[johnclinebell]

@musicisexpression23 muchos gracias glad you enjoyed it and let me know if there's any other songs you think you might enjoy hearing me sing :)

[MrThanasis55]

GJ!!

[FreeAmericans]

nice cover man! One of the few covers of this song that I like.

[johnclinebell]

thanks a lot, i really dig this song so what you're saying means a lot to me. it's old timey and kinda silly/feel good. classic! :)

[albrenza]

I love this song! =)

[eaglei28]

[hammertorch]

I like the way you shouted " Why do you build me up! " that's really hilarious but fun...

[MyFallingShadow]

I't did look like you'll suck before you started playing because when you said :'this will be interesting' you sounded unsure in yourself .

[sickyDlx]

a very very good acoustic cover. i like it.

[teckman013]

[kyledub213]

that sounds like a sad band

[giwastar13]

[johnclinebell]

@giwastar13 sorry it took so long, but just posted a video response with the chords :)

[AdnanGanovic]

[MattSwizz]

[johnclinebell]

[BrazilianKid24]

[maxxramman]

[chrisdenton01]

You were right sir, that was interesting. It sounded amazing. Good job sir

[paladin0908]

Nice! You got your 100th 5 star rating :]

[santogrand]

[bandwagonretards]

on second though, just tell me the chords you play after the C, and after the F, i cant tell where your fingers are after those ones. all tabs i find say to use G but it doesn't seem like you're using it

[bandwagonretards]

is this your own rendition? i can't find reliable tabs for this song, mind posting or sending me the chords you used? i need to figure this song out! haha

[johnclinebell]

@bandwagonretards hey sorry it took forever but i finally posted a video response with how i play the song :)

This is great, well done, you reach those high notes really well! When I try to sing this at a karaoke thing I always run out of steam and can't hit the high bits.

Anyway, I enjoyed this - well done again.
