[sidi788]

[Kickstart187]

@sidi788 the whole song is C, G, Am. you get the all the notes in between by just playing around with the chords

[iBrusmaN]

I would strangle a Racoon, while I was fighting with a Bear to get this Gods voice!

[jbaker8]

I'd give my left nut to be able to sing like this

[Aveloly]

@jbaker8 Wouldn't work. You would sing to high then.

[AymanRSaleh]

@jbaker8 Giving up a nut might be counter productive to singing like this.

[bluetality]

@AymanRSaleh Ahahaha!

[TToTToTT]

@AymanRSaleh He'd end up singing like sarah brightman instead

[badassassassin1000]

@jbaker8 why not the right?

[OGNamedGravy]

@jbaker8 I'd give both

[SpazFactorial]

@jbaker8 hell, I'd give both of mine

[XxGaneshxX]

his range is UNBELIEVABLE!

[john54421]

Lucky mother ****er

[mrmwest09]

I love Skynryd as much as anybody. Have seen them a couple times and they are one of the greatest rock bands ever. But there is no denying Brent's voice is just flat out better than Ronnie or Johnny Van Zandt. Dude has the best voice in rock music period...

[professorironlungs]

im not big on classic song remakes, but these guys have always been "that band" that does it and it sounds great.... amazing

[aaronlndry]

incredible man truly a great.. cant wait to see you in louisiana

[stevengreen2222]

[streetracer1086]

@gallantentry your abviously a dusch and know nothing about music

[dansam42]

Not better than the original..... MUCH better than the original!

[cuwboys123]

[Raydem87]

Amazing

[3DGFORLYFE]

i pretty much got emotional listening to this.. holy shit brents voice is jus pure amazingness

[83munchy]

one of the things i love most, is Brent goes all out. Private show in front of a few dozen , but he sings his ass off like he's in front of a sold out arena! Best singer out there today by far!

[gracenkk100]

WOW!!!!! I always liked this particular song, but now, I LOVE it!!! Talk about having some pipes!!!! This man truly has a gift!!

[NoaAbood]

@gracenkk100 damn right he got some pipes!

[titan8or]

Oh my god that was so f****** cool. How lucky are you to have a shine down performing in your house

[AmaninaRohizad84]

i'm not saying that this is better than the original. but i 100% prefer his voice compared to skynard's. this gives me chills. ^_^

[sanguinesin66]

better than than skynard? lol

[zl4iuzmh]

@sanguinesin66 nothing can compare to skynYRd!

[Evilhax0r]

It's sad that the cover of this song is better than the original. Even his raw voice is godlike.

[projectspillman2]

@Evilhax0r bullshit its a little less good as the original

[Evilhax0r]

@projectspillman2 Yeah, if you're retarded and musically ignorant.

[jennycfancy3]

amazing,,, I like it better than skynard!!

[HellderLastRebel]

@jennycfancy3 SHUT THE FUCK UP MOTHERFUCKER!

[laz3rw0lf]

@jennycfancy3 Lol, Sky Nard

[johaku99]

how did you get shinedown to come over to your house

[cmilligan18]

@johaku99 money pays for alot of stuff bro. back in the day money wasn't so important. but now money pays for almost anything u want.

[F71PPER]

@cmilligan18 He won a contest! check his videos you hater.

[gwcrandall]

by far the best cover of simple man ever i think. don't get me wrong Skynyrd did a great job too but shinedown is my number 1 band!

[jms6464]

damn..that was fuckin tight!

[bezhinini]

сколько души.....

[LRGHMN]

@bezhinini What he said ...... I think ?

[xxdksxxtv]

Gotta love the down to earth stuff before they were real famous

[bocajmahpu]

I seriously just want to model my life after this song

[guzman101]

Sometimes you never know how good someone is till you hear them in the raw. Great voice, great control, and soul.

[AlmostOuttaHellview]

@guzman101 I'm about to belt this song harder than he does. Right now xD

[guzman101]

@AlmostOuttaHellview HAHA! Maybe you will, shit I don't know.

[13mattoso]

perfect!!! amazing!!!!!!!!

[AlmostOuttaHellview]

@13mattoso This song actually just so happens to be exactly what 2 1/2 years in new orleans and thousands a miles all culminate to. I don't even care vive la cover bands.

[dirtcrak]

Dude his voice is amazing, if he was in American Idol he would win the whole thing at his Adution.

[BamaFanMatty]

This song and SHINEDWON F'N ROCK!!!! I actually danced with my mom during the mother-son dance at my wedding to this version of Simple Man by Shinedown!!!! It reminds me of many conversations I had with my mom growing up!!! I LOVE YOU MOM!!!! SHINEDOWN U F'N ROCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[fossilbox1991]

im not really a fan of shinedowns music.....but holy shit that guy has some pipes. awesome cover

[asssssssss420]

[BIGJOEDAPOET]

[VIVIANPAYNE2]

[AymanRSaleh]

When I think Shinedown, I still think of Brent and Jasin rockin out together :'(

[Lurk26]

saying either version is better than the other is a crime to music. each version is completely beautiful in their own right, and the fact their cover does justice to the original is a testament to their raw talent and power. now enjoy the music and stfu

[luxiriepaiin]

amazingggggggg !!!!!!!!!! 

[BermudaD]

very great but does not touch Ronnie or Jonnie Van Zant

[lrecollet]

2 thumbs up awesome song and performance

[dirtyrat9]

AMAZING!!  Pure sound that's full of feeling and unmolested by a studio. It doesn't get any better.

[Samsinge]

his reaction at 4:57...a genuine singer!

[danielmmdsj]

im a loyal skynard fan, but ronnie was smiling the day this was done.

[panteragod69]

YES, I said it. Better than the original.

[MetalDude4Life]

@panteragod69 your such a dumbass its not even close to the original

[trevbyrne]

@panteragod69 Who is the guitarist?



[rocklee5x]

[bghack]

[1989bigshieldsy]

This is one of the few covers that exceed expectaions and are far beyond the original......i love Skynard but id take this version any day!!! musch love for shinedown!!!!!

[DeluxeTwinkies]

It's bands like this that really make me want to be a musician...

[magnoliasoilder1029]

[trivcob91]

I've tears in my eyes. Dudes.. This is one of the best song I ever heard. And this man sing it just like a god... it's just... Amazing..

[nepotter13]

His vibrato is BOSS

[bocajmahpu]

Skynrd may have wrote this song, but there's no doubt that Brent made it his own

[blurge23]

I miss this Shinedown!!! I love them still, but to me This was Shinedown!!!

[Purelylogical1]

In the days of over producing and autotune, it's a wonderful feeling to hear a simple human voice transform a classic into something that truly uplifts my soul. Thank you gentlemen!! We are richer for the experience.

[lewisangelia]

Wow!

[SonicGuitarAce]

It pleases me so much for a band to cover old classics, this is so beautiful, well done Shinedown for honoring such a great song

[quadmx00]

brent smith is by far one of the best vocalists of this generation....could listen to this version for days

[stratcat70]

fricken bad ass! thats a great rendition! wish i could have been there!

[walkamanka]

i wish i could be there....

[autonami]

too bad lynyrd skynyrd wasnt there.

[jupitercrash07]

@autonami I wonder if they would admit Shinedown does a better version? 

[dustinlee2009]

How did u get him there

[Feedembruss]

have some respect you rude crowd

[bigbaker08]

honestly, this is coming from this mans heart which gives me goose bumps. this video made me not even like the original song; & i love lynyrd skynyrd!

[lilsnow92]

how the fuck did u get shinedown to just come to ur house wtf???

[Driveshaft12345]

@lilsnow92 He won a radio show contest

[TheWildwildwess]

I'm pretty sure the Skynyrd crew loves these cats!!!

[efesgirl999]

Brent Smith is truly blessed......

[noeldawkins]

I seriously got goosebumps from this!!!! So amazing!!!! They are even better in person

[heathfiedler]

whoever does not like this version or the song itself is a fucking jackoff and dumbass. point blank period so fuck you

[MrThejoker9669]

Damn

[tritt38]

i never thought that any band or anyone could do a version of this song with out it sounding like shit.ronnie vanzant was the man and this is one song i didnt think id see somone do this well.but let me say shinedown knocked it outta the park and then some.ABSOLUTELY FUCKIN AWESOME.but still hats off people to the man,RONNIE VANZANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[AlteregoingInsane]

If they came to my house I would lock them in the basement, let them out to play songs, then back in the basement.

[rjwhitlock]

Big time!

[Goztamoz]

ask one of them RnB/Hip Hop guys to sing without a mic, they can't cuz they need autotune and all that shit because they can't really sing.
