Great to see someone doing something they love and are very good at.

Keep it up!

MVK

[ldskbell]

Holy shite!! This is incredible! Where can I buy this song?!?

[girrTube]

GREAT!!!!!!!!!!!!

[broomy100]

I'm from scotland and love this song,its kinda national athem for us,but this sounds great .good job....but the Original is still the best.....loud and proud! good job.

[Glitches0and0stuff]

Awesome cover. And awesome dog.

[TheKarmaProject]

Your so fucking great... wow... i could listen to your music everytime.... wonderfull... =) i love it...

[AswInfinity]

Awesome! 5 stars for your relaxed dog in the video too =)

[bb316gun]

Not your song, not to be mean and harsh, but people have their songs they shouldn't sing, and this is the song you shouldn't sing.

[Veritas75]

I completely disagree. A cover shouldn't sound the same as the original. Changing it up a bit is inevitable and this change definitely works. Great job.

[bb316gun]

I never said anything about the cover supose to sound the same, it's just not one of his best works. And i think he can do alot better than this song.

[sputnikowns]

Make a CD.

[ChaoticMinds]

Ohhh I love this song!!!

You did an amazing job, and I love a lot of your other songs, too!! Keep it up. :D <3

It would of been fun watching you go all out like the original version, but this is so relaxing, I love it.

[kiwwwwy]

you're great

[tools747]

haha after a min the cute little doggy pokes iits nose out in the background, crosses his legs and lays his head down... hell i'd do the same if i were a dog lol, very mellow version of the song, beautifully done mate =)!

[Theoryofknowledge01]

Brilliant...a fantastic cover. I felt really relaxed and calm as I was listening. Great job.

[mariejane25]

nice. really nice blown away

[gecellie]

This was sooo sweet. Thank you so much for posting and sharing. i loved it.

It almost made me cry. hehehe.. in a good way. =)

[fastrafa]

nice bub! keep on it!

[UwahX]

Beautiful voice! Really!

[EyeMSpartacus]

Wow. Love it.....

Love both versions actually. You made this song your own. The mark of a true artist.

[DiscoGuy09]

I Feel sorry for that dog man look at it .SORT IT OUT Joker...........

[dontnudge]

johnny is the one on the floor.. the dog is chillin' on the couch.. you SORT IT OUT JOKER!

[Henri081092]

Very nice version. And the dog in the background is very sweet, too :D

[Cloudismyhero]

I think that you should know, I am learning guitar purely for the reason to learn how to play this cover. Haha. We'll see if I'm any good when I'm done with it! Thanks for the inspiration!

[thebrassnut]

Nice cover!

[david19661966]

wow, very very nice

[paranorman2]

I've been listening to your music for a while now, and I have say that this is one of your best. By slowing this song down you show that you can hold and carry a tune. You make beautiful music, Johnny!

[mrmonkey14]

awesome dude!

[morrocollero]

well done my friend

[meihoidn]

now a few hours for my 20th birthday i sit here listen to this song. i must cry. i wish there was a girl i could it sing to. but theres nobody. i m alone. since 4 years. nobody can make me happy except music. thank god for this cover. thank god for you man! tomorrow i'm gonna go the the doctor and he should give me some "happypills" that i can finish my college. sorry, but i don't where i should i write down. i think heres a good place for it.

[drummererb]

YouTube comments are NOT a good place for it. Friends and family are much better.

[meihoidn]

this song makes me sad.... wonderful depressive :) in my opinion.. thats a true song. true of feelings. i love the punk MxPx Version, I love the Proclaimers and now Thats my favorite one ^^

[badasschan]

hahaha he looks like my old high school teacher!

[mizzattitude178]

this version actually makes me smile so much. the original just strikes me as a bit of a jokey song. but this song just shows that it can be a proper like, love song. i really love this.

xx

[willock5]

wow you can do anything.Thanks for your conviction and passion.I need more of both.

[bTi16]

I like your voice (:

Einfach nur geil ...!!!

[kuronekoi]

I honestly hated this song but in your cover... gosh it is beautyfull!!!!! I can listen to it all the time! Outstanding!

[chesspie14]

wow, I really like how you did this song! Great voice, great playing. I really hope you get signed!

[zhrelp]

your voice is like the first time someone saw a really good thing its really up to u but thats besides the point great vid, i really like how ur dog is just chillin

[cowpunk1978]

i bet you can pull some serious poontang outside of a coffeeshop! nice work, as always.

[faustie31]

this is absolutely brilliant.

[hlohowskyj]

this is wonderful! fits the lyrics perfectly. you have a great voice :]

[arpeggio16]

i really like your interpretation of this song.. it sounds really nice

[crazieman76]

randomly stumbled upon this video. nice job on this song.

[jaminusa]

Nice! I agree with you - the lyrics are nice, but they don't fit the shouting. Your version fits the words better.

[sakahari]

nice dog in the background.

[dagobertrdayandnight]

echt cool. Liebe im Detail. Danke! Du hast wrklich die Berechtigung zu zeigen!

[rich77777777]

Astonishingly good

[superman80782]

johnny all your music rocks the originals the covers they all rock keep up the amzing work your doing oh and hey not an insult but u knida looked like wheres waldo in this one lol cheers friend

[Highhopespf]

I love this song anyway. The way you covered it really gives it a whole other feeling. great job!

[Newfoundbiker]

Great stuff once again Johnny!

[InMyM2Z]

Whoa, Christ. How did I miss this one? This is just beautiful. Very nice job, sir.

[ivysharrard]

I've just watched this for the 5th time in a row. Beautiful. I loved the lyrics of this song but couldn't listen to it- like you read my mind. U should be signed soon so more people can enjoy ur talent.

[ladykiller85]

Great stuff, John. I wish more people would do stuff like this. Keep it up.

[bbathtub101]

will u put this on itunes for me to download??

[bbathtub101]

u r so good at this sort of thing

[longdaysahead]

Would be pretty good if you werent the singer... get someone else to play the guitar as well... o wait....what would you do then? Exactly!!!!

[BrianDev0]

your just fucking jealous

[longdaysahead]

All this video needs is the wizard and the scroll...

[destinosangre]

you're a jerk man... shut up...

by the way johnny you're fucking awesome!!!

[tzsch83]

i've watched this video a few times and i just realized your dog was lying on the couch behind you. he behaved this time....i.e. wonderwall. :)

[acousticlover91]

man, if i had 10% of the talent you have i would be very happy,...........simply amazing.

[basselope]

hey, i found waldo.

[amadeus2490]

This version - if recorded in a studio - could be on a romantic comedy soundtrack, definitely.

[jacobmollstam]

Is that a good thing or a bad?

[amadeus2490]

Well, it depends on what kind of deal the label would give Johnny, and how many copies the album would well.

[mcfendur]

i dont think the comedy part so much..it definitely could be a track for one of the new-age teen love story movies

[amadeus2490]

Yeah. . .the story of Waldo living, learning. . .and loving. "She finally found him. . .or did they find one another?"

/vomiting ensues.

[jocleland]

This is the most beautiful version of this song I've ever heard. Very well done. :)

[darylsblog]

Jesis! I just commented on your Wham cover... but this one is so much better, you are very good sir...

very good....

[centaur00me]

Reason it's "shouty" is cos it's meant to be anthem-ic. However, this really is very beautiful. Heartbreaking. Sounds almost like it's in a minor key.

[wowthatstakin]

nice plesent song and singing

[jessenicoli]

I like this version soo much better than the original. Mellow works so well with this song.

[weefrump]

aaaw, it's nice. however i'm scottish & this song is for singing and dancing to whilst pissed lol

[maveric1337]

Another great job, though i like the original version better ;)

[olicc]

Can't wait for the album, keep up the good work!

Oh, and 'I Found Waldo!!!!!'

[lianasmooz]

Nice work jonstar! I see Jet taking a starring role in the background there!

[tonyt888]

i showed this to my fiancee.. we both agreed this could be our wedding song.. anyway you can i can dl this from a site or something? Our wedding not until 2010 but I really don't want to lost your cover of this song.

[johnnyonline]

wow. thankyou. umm. there's nothing to download yet. i'm going to record this again properly when i make my album... eventually. so stay subscribed to this channel for any updates, including downloads.

[Boggle7]

I love this idea too. We might copy you!

[YouWantFriesWithThat]

This is an amazing cover, makes me want to spiff up my covers a bit haha.

[Bandit1790]

Great version of this song, and cute doggy in the background.

[glennjridge]

about 20 miles....I would be cool,around 50 miles I would be thinking of her flaws and wondering if it was worth it,about 80 miles I'm sure I would have cheated on her and pretty much forget about her.just being realistic.

[grantbob]

Great idea, and finely executed. Very cool.

[wojolohre]

really made this your own. loved it. great job, and you sang it like you meant it. thanks!

[jak0r0x]

awesome version john ... makes a welcome change from bogans shouting the lyrics in dingy pubs :) As good a version as it is, my favourite bit is still jetty kicking it in the background haha take care xx jacki

[thebrooke]

This is lovely. I've had this song in my head lately and was a bit taken aback to see it in my subscribed videos thingy! and then to have it be such a beautiful cover, awesome! :)

[noetherianring]

good work johnny

[mitsuda]

It's funny, I used to laugh and sing this song with my sister when we were little. Now if I listen to the lyrics they seems so much more meaningful...I miss my girlfriend.

[UserNameTaken99]

No I can just hear the original. Bad choice of guitar, I see what you were going for. But no, I just don't think it works personally...

I hate criticizing Johnny, but just being honest.

[lilmisslacey]

I wouldnt even call it a cover...a cover reminds me of a cheesy band in a pub, singing the songs the way they were written - you've given it a new life, you've given it "you" :) Thanks for sharing :)... im just gonna go and "cover" this one myself - beautiful

[NiteRider107]

Haha, ever heard the Less Than Jake version? It's totally ska/punk, its cool. I like this one too, probably just as much as this one. The original songs okay, but I like the covers better hahahaha

[VilhelmNielsen]

Great cover, though I hate the original and it's still the same song, so I don't think I'll listen to this one again.

[foufymaus]

What a wonderful Birthday Surprise!! I love your version of this song. Thanks for posting it.

[NYCUES]

i've watched alot of your videos, this is your best by far, for real. I will favorite this.

[Drummerquinn91]

Beautiful Voice! Truely Amazing!

[joibbjarna]

WOW!! probably the best cover Ive seen of this song.. Can I get the tabs for any chance?

[johnnyonline]

it's just C, F and G power chords with a basic finger picking pattern.. that's all. oh and the capo

[pinebears]

cant rele hear the guitar-- but the singings goooood and i luv ur dogg in the backrond =) lol

[MissMilly88]

Wow this has made my evening...just beautiful..

[JuicySmooth85]

Good job baby. Love it.

[lawlsimpopular]

:\ I heard somewhere that Elixir just buys "defective" (substandard, I'm guessing) strings from D'addario, coats them, and turns them around. Could easily just be a rumor, but I prefer Martin SP 012-054 strings none the less.

[islandanieltfrank]

Beautiful work as usual!

[nikkocarlocayaga]

I'm going to sing this for days... again... Happy 30th!!!!

[ChildrenoftheLand]

I love your stuff.

This is awesome.

[ulisesx]

nice stuff

[diiddoo]

great version of this song. you really got this one by the balls.

[InfectiousIfOnly]

You have amazing talent. I watch your videos daily and love it when you come out with new ones. Your voice is amazing. Keep up the good work.

With much love.

[TrustNo121000]

Wow! what an amazing cover

[imthehuman]

Awesome as usual Johnny.

You seriously rock.

[Dimacheari]

keep loving my subscribtion to you. You are way to talented for a man this 'undiscovered'. Hope one day you will be in that spotlight you deserve.

[Reina4]

I think there was a little bit of trouble with keeping time on the guitar part, but other than that, It was fantastic. Very nice remake. Your voice is lovely :D

[pixelfreak007]

Nice job! I loved it!

[poica1]

Very pretty. Different - not necessarily better, but definitely not worse.

You're a very talented man.

[MarquisMark76]

I shuddered a bit when I saw the song in question's title for this video, I won't lie, but all doubts were put to rest once you started playing/singing.

Nice, nice work.

[rufusdufus1988]

Wow! that was awesome cover love your version! and your dog is so cute!

[suzi80]

I was a bit worried when I read the title but this is really great :)

I like your where's wally jumper too ;)

[JohnnyStallsForTime]

fantastic. =]

[steveguy]

Johnny you're my new superhero.

[SmOkM]

great stuff, can tell you enjoyed doing that one

[MelissaSue1113]

I liked your version better than the original! Well done!!

[mschristina]

I love love LOVE this cover! Fantastic job!

[KIRKIN2112]

Your finger picking ability is amazing!

[johnnyonline]

aww, shucks

[JohnMayer07]

Indeeds.

What type of strings do you use?

[johnnyonline]

elixirs, 80/20.. 12-54

[JohnMayer07]

It seems everyone uses Elixirs these days.

I still use D'Addario Lights. :(

[dabrix18]

WALDO! heh, good cover :)

[johnnyonline]

haha.. i get that every time i wear this jumper.

[thechrissyb]

Absolutely superb johnny!

[scubasteveisc]

This is the best version ive ever heard. Better than the original imo.

[BarneyFife00]

I like the dog chilling in the background.

[encinitasmel]

This is a great cover, i like it better than the original!! :))

Mel.

[SebastianLaw3283]

Sorry mate, not this time. I'm for Scotland and this is like bread and butter for us. I see what you've done with it. But it's lost all feeling. Yours sounds more melancholy, whereas the original has a certain amount of anger and bitterness attached to it. Good try though.

[johnnyonline]

i was actually expecting that it might put me offside with a scotsman or two. I was actually trying to take out the anger from the original. sorry about that

[detox07]

Omg, make an MP3 of this, I want!

[lawlsimpopular]

Bastard.  This is going to be stuck in my head for weeks.

Well done.

[wh00p101]

Top stuff. Keep up the good work. :)

[reddavid]

Pure braw, pal. Och aye.

[ryaninprogress]

This is how the song should have been done.

The Proclaimers' original version was good, but I can't listen to it more than once without it getting on my nerves a little.

Beautiful cover, man.

[garypetersjr]

Great version. Cool.

[WyattRob17]

nice cover...keep it up!...cool dog by the way.

[Kittani]

Beautiful

[chaoscausingleo]

wow... I've always loved this song.. and I absolutely adore your version... *waves her lit lighter in the air*

[Jenwho123]

I love your rendition of the song, you give it more meaning.

I absolutely cant stop watching it!

[gratefulnan]

Great version Johnny...very Nick Drake....beautiful

[dlslide44]

one of your best jonny!

[ubervendo]

ah man you're so good!
