  • hey how did you get it to where you have both mics recording into the system?! i need to know how to do this lol

  • Hey. Look under 'more info'. I have an external firefire sound card with 8 inputs.

  • Wow! Thought it really was John Mayer at first! Keep up the ahh-mazing work and you'll be something big in no time!

  • You're awesome, man! Love your videos, you're using your talent. And you're danish!

  • I really love your covers. Beside, sound quality is very impressive. I have Mxl 990 and fast track pro. The sound doesn't even close yours.

  • wow that's a nice taylor...

  • For some reason it sounds wrong when i do the strumming part :( its tuned perfectly...

  • OMG!!that is gorgeous!!!!

  • I think its flawless cover. Nice job!

  • เพราะมาก ,so sweet : )

  • SUUPER COVER!

  • Good job bud. You have a nice voice, not so much suited to this song in my opinion but it was in key and wasn't off once! The instrumentals on the other hand were spot on and were the closet I've seen on youtube to John's version, sounded great, keep it up!

  • Nice, I love you guitar. But if you try to get a chair that you can lean back with your microphone near you and not lean it you wont flex your abs and then you will get a more clean and relaxd sound. Try it! It really helps me!

  • your fucking awsome!!! :)

    thnx

  • Hey man it sounds like your playing half a step down from the tuning u show in the tabs, is that right?

  • That is correct :)

  • EFFING WOW!

  • HOLY CRAP DUDE THAT WAS AMAZING! Also I love the tone of your voice, very unique! :D

  • why didn't you show your face? You are a good musician !

  • FUCK you sound so much like John!!!

    Loved the cover man!!

  • good. but your tune is a little low. =)

  • Tutorial please

  • Hey dude listen, I am reaaaaaaalllllllyyyyyy grateful for you dude, man, you really are an example, your playing is super great (strange word connection jajajaja) this definitely will go to my favorites, you really play good, and those tabs are the most precise for me, if it weren't for you, maybe it would have taken a lot of time to learn this, thanks :)

  • This makes me proud to be danish! Fantastisk spillet og sunget! Flere John Mayer covers tak!

    - Casper Esmann

  • I have seen other covers and they can sing it but they don't play it properly. I mean the men,the women sing their versions amazingly.

    but out of the covers i have seen made by men,you are probably the most accurate one i have heard so far. Great job!!!

    I think your voice is great and it's made for country music,but you sang this song well. I play with my thumb on all of the parts but that's just me,at least you played it correctly. Keep It Up!!!

  • Everytime when i'm listening to your covers, i wish i could play gituar as you can.

    Just great work mate! I'm veeery impressed!

  • was amazing without the singing

  • Dude! Awesome guitar skills! You deserve to be way more famous.

  • El mejor cover que he visto!

  • dude.....fag..

    

  • Very nice cover man. You sound a little like Gordon Lightfoot lol. Made mine a response to yours.

  • its good..but a lot a production in this

  • You played it and sang it well. I think this is a great cover so keep it up!! Though just one thing I'm sure you are surely capable to play that low E with your thumb :) great cover!

  • I don't know what's wrong with this cover,it's not flat

  • It all sounds very flat is probably a good way to put it

  • @MrBlackBalloon I love your guitar !!!!!. It's amazing. What's the diferents with a normal 714ce?. Thanks !

  • Thanks :-) The biggest difference is that the back and sides are cocobolo wood.

  • How should I go about learning to sing? If I have to teach myself?

    Your singing on this song is the best I've heard, and I've watched a lot of covers of this song

  • your covers are amazing. what set up do you use btw? like what kind of microphone, video recorder, etc? does the camera actually record the audio from where its sitting, or do you run an input audio cable into the camera that records your voice and acoustic electric guitar directly?

  • a little more bass in the eq of vocals oh and a pop filter and your tone is perfect ;)

  • you're really good at playing this song, great job

  • John mayer plays some crazy stuff. if you can do what he does i give you props. good job man!

  • Watch my cover too =)

    /watch?v=Yqvf2BeYc3c

  • Heard this serveral times already, so wanted to give you a reply. Awesome! There you go ^^ I love it. And btw I can't hear anything at any point during the song, that should sound autotuned O.o

    Again, awesome ;-)

  • WOW!!!!

  • Sounds very autotuned. Other than that this was alright.

  • Weird. I never use autotune.

  • @vanskeligAfAnickda it doesn't sound auto tuned at all...wtf are you listening to? lol

  • @vanskeligAfAnickda this was NOT "alright." It's FANTASTIC!!! Genius dude. Keep up the awesome-amazing work!

  • @vanskeligAfAnickda jealousy is a dangerous virtue.

  • @Sandler41882 I can do this 10 times better, so I am far from jealous, I just said what struck me when I heard this, I never said it was, I said it sounded autotuned, might've been the choice of reverb along with his singing. This aint brilliant nor is it anything special compared to other covers of the same song so get over yourselves.

    And to MrBlackBalloon I mean no offense, you got room for improvement both in the singing department and the guitarplaying department but keep up the good work!

  • @vanskeligAfAnickda then upload your version

  • @vanskeligAfAnickda Really? Yeah I don't hear that.

  • @vanskeligAfAnickda your an idiot

  • @vanskeligAfAnickda or perhaps he sings well =)

  • excellent.

  • I like your voice and guitar:) wish i could play like u:)

  • You used 12s strings. And what about JM? What do you think? maybe he is using 11s

  • Great sound, great guitar , great voice.

  • vocal is too hot

  • those tabs remind me of me looking at my math tests

  • awesome job! would love the tab - this looks spot on!

  • Keep doing this just this way. Awesome job!

  • great job

  • YOUR VOICE IS GAY! I literally pressed the mute button.

  • @300sec2midnight erm... this is great what are you talking about?!

    an opinions an opinion but yours is a little out. x

  • @Caomhe all due respect but for me it really doesnt hit the part. his voice is really flat. guitar's ok. but it doesnt give you the kick that jm usually does. a cover should at least have its own quality but this is plain boring. 

  • Very nice, I would like to have your voice!

  • awesome cover! congratz!

  • @wopeswopes93 Tabs are in the info section.

  • i wish u wouldve just tuned to e inestead of e flat, haha easier for me... just sayin

  • Great cover man! Thumb up for you...may I have tabs?

  • @chibihentaisenpai Tabs are in the info section.

  • You should be a lot more famous. Very talented and an incredible performer! Keep it up.

  • wow, your taylor sounds AMAZING!!!!

  • @paigemusic23 INCREDIBLE SOUND so lush!!!!!!

  • Best cover on youtube.

  • very good cover!

  • yo man can i get the tabs for this?

  • well played, sir.

  • where did you get the tabs?

  • Hi! This is a great cover, i love it! :D

    Could you send me the tab please? Thanks!

  • Nice video, could you tell me what reverb plugins did you use when you mixed it? Thanks a lot!

  • Thanks. I used the Sonitus reverb that comes with Cakewalk Sonar.

  • witch tonning is this

  • could you send me the tab aswell please ! thanks

  • Where did you get the tab for this? Amazing cover.

  • I'll send you the tabs I use.

  • @MrBlackBalloon Hey - could you send me those as well? I'd very much like them :)

  • @MrBlackBalloon

    hey, can i also have a copy of the tabs..??

    this rendition is absolutely brilliant

  • @MrBlackBalloon Lovely cover, i'd be really greatfull for the tab to.

  • @MrBlackBalloon could you send me the tabs too man? I'd really appreciate it.

  • @MrBlackBalloon

    can i get the tabs too

  • OMG that Taylor sounds sooooo damn good, i wanna like make love to it hahaha na JK, seriously that is music to my ears

  • You have a really epic voice :)

  • I don't know if you have originals, but with those vocals and guitar skill, I really think that you could make it if you send a demo to the right record company. 

  • beautiful guitar. taylor guitars produce the most beautiful sound, martin has nothing on these guitars.

  • I own a Martin D-41 as well and I must admit that I wouldn't know which to keep if I could only pick one... :)

  • @MrBlackBalloon Martin and Taylor go together, inseparable, none is better than the other.

  • @MrBlackBalloon d-42 kills this taylor

  • @acidkill They have a diverse sound, i dont really thnk one is better than the other, but i find Taylors are overpriced compared to martins and they lack lows

  • @acidkill i hace a taylor 914, best taylor makes and i agree. martins are wonderful they are great for blues and rhythm guitar but taylors have sweeter tone in my opinion

  • Wow this is beautiful! That's such a beautiful Taylor....

  • Sounds like Gordon Lighfoot at times. 

  • would you be so kind to send me a message containing the guitar tabs? i'd really appreciate that, thank you in advance :)

  • BEAUTIFUL TAYLOR. 714ce Limited Fall Edition?

  • Comment removed

  • some sound of that taylor

  • amazing cover, mate...what tuning do u have on your guitar here?

  • @thmountaineer2010 The tuning from low to high is E (standard), B (one octave higher than A), E (one octave higher than D), F# (half step down from G), B (standard), E (standard)

  • oh wow! AWESOME!

  • Wow, great job! This is really good.

  • 0:00 - 4:16 best part of this

  • Comment removed

  • @xMrCustom24x EBEF#BE

  • top notch man. Love the song and I most definatly love the sound on the taylor. Is it a 814ce? What do you think of the expession system. I have heard mixed reviews. Love the video man. Keep up the great work.

  • This is an absolutely amazing cover! great job!

  • Great work man! Been trying to pick this song up myself, must say you've been a big help! =P

    FYI, don't know why but you sorta sound like the poets of the fall frontman..=/ Not a bad thing, that..!

  • The guitar is great but the singing is a bit too monotone, also I'd like to have had the falsetto in there too :) Otherwise great job :)

  • you did it in your way and it sounds amazing. congrats.

  • why u cut out ure head?

  • really good, you just need to work on the rhythm in that riff in the first verse, listen to the song a few more times, remember to keep that bass line straight. in that part, but that was really the only problem

  • wow

  • Really great cover! =)

  • I think that this cover is "greater" than the original.. your vocie is really smooth and yeah, awesome!

  • @Sonofabot this is an amazing cover, but nothing can ever truly be greater than the original. but @MrBlackBalloon dude this is awesome. best cover out there

  • The Tuning is: low to high E B E F# B E

  • This is the best cover I have seen of this song so far..! amazing job

    How long did it take you to learn it and what is the tuning for it..?

    Thanks for much for your music! What a beautiful guitar!

  • Thanks. It probably took a couple of weeks to play it properly. Tuning is EBEF#Be

  • @MrBlackBalloon waching this vid repeatdly to learn how to play it... thats for posting the best vesrion of this song on youtube ever!!! :D :D

  • This is in a really crazy tuning correct?

  • @ams914 its not that crazy. its EBEF#BE

  • Tutorial, please!

  • A-M-A-Z-I-N-G

  • fantastic cover, really enjoyed it, I play a bit of guitar so hopefully someday I could play this song

  • wowowowow who didn't like this?.. he does it like the king himself (: Nice one

  • I had my heart set on a 814ce but this video is making me want to consider a 714ce...

  • Great job! do you know where I could get the tabs for how you play especially for the phrase "and not race to your door" I cant tell where your putting your fingers but really like the voicing

  • 13 people missed the like button.

  • GREAT job. The guitar sounds awesome (I happen to have a very similar sitka/cocobolo GS :) -- your vocals are smooth and very John Mayer-esk. Really enjoyed watching the vid. Can you talk about your mic and camera setup? What are you using for a camera and what kind of mics are those? How do you have them running to the camera? Keep it up.

  • Did u record the video and then add the audio from the mic recordings to it, i know that sound quality cant be from the video camera

  • PERFECT!!!!! ;D

  • is it still tuned off the E?

  • @wizart19 Yes, you can use the low E string to tune for this song. For those of you who don't know, Mayer uses E B E F# B E tuning. Simply use the 7th fret of the low E to tune the A up to a B, then use the fifth fret of that B to tune the D up to an E, then use the second fret of that E to tune the G DOWN to an F#. The high B and E strings are already tuned. Hope that helps!

  • awesome cover man :P i have just learnt to play this song my self... its really a great song but i need to work on my vocals before i put a cover up on youtube aswell... great sound quality aswell...

  • Really great cover. The harmonics spoke to me. ;-)

  • hey awesome cover! im trying to learn this song, is it safe to tune ur guitar to open E, cuz i really dont want to break my strings haha

  • oh man a taylor guitarr nice one :) looks nice and sounds nice absolut great cover

  • Love this. Good work.

  • nice...

  • your great man.

  • How come you are unable to get those harmonics to speak? I think this cover is great, and spot on, really. Great sounding guitar and vocals. I had never really noticed those bass notes before in the bridge before the "get lost on the boulevard tonight" verse. Sweet, man.

  • I'm not sure. I think they are more clear in the raw audio material, but they might have faded a bit in the mix. Also my technique could be better I guess :) But thanks for your comment,

  • @MrBlackBalloon

    In the LA version, there's a second part after it ends :p

  • Comment removed

  • good cover, just work on your rythym and timing.

  • Dude I might get some hate for saying this, but I really would rather listen to your recording than Mayers. Your tone and voice are so good, it suits this song perfectly. Awesome job

  • your guitar sounds great but your rhythm is way off

  • great job this is the best cover i have seen you did a great job of it i am trying to learn it for staxtonbury festival in a few weeks, i also have a taylor they are amazong guitars i love them once again great job :D
