[austinht]

good job sounded nice =)

[grawlisches]

one of the best singers I've ever heard <3

[tordzzon]

Nice man really good :D

[pokerchick22]

I personal think Jeff buckley singing this song is one of the best. although Jake does an incredible job too.. Jake i brought your album a couple of years ago and I still get goosebumbs when i listen to your songs.. especialy Best Love Song I Ever Wrote

[macdaddyhitman]

ergkjfhgkjhg

sorry my jaw dropped excellent !!!

[travisharder]

I just don't like that Jeff Buckley style intro. I will never understand why he did that, completely ruins the song for me.

[Ew7n]

Very Beautiful Bravo

[fonnard]

bravo a toi ...mercie... arnaud

[VolcanicICEman]

Lenard Cohens voice is way toooooo deep!

[federchat]

lol I watched the original by Lenard Cohen some minutes before and I must say your version of the song is MUCH better =D =D =D

[woodsy0003]

In all respect to your comment I must say that no ones version can ever be better then the original, and that goes for anything related to art. This song is easier to listen to without Cohen's vocal cords, but Cohen's voice is what made this song his brain is what wrote the song and for that you can't take away his version being the best. Then again this is just my stoner mind wandering. Have a nice day:)

[elorawhoo]

Actually, I beg to differ. Leonard Cohen wrote a beautiful song, but I don't think Mr. Cohen can do it justice.

[jizl]

i concur with your differing elorawhoo, i don't think anyone has done this song complete justice yet.

woodsy, you are very narrow minded for a stoner, check out this cover of spooky. watch?v=WTWCBgCYtrE&feature=re­lated

the original is awesome, but this version is even better. point made.

[newsblog]

[xsiden2]

Beautiful cover of a classic.

[Elfinesmom]

. . .Oh. my. gosh. Please don't sing this anymore. Please? I will die. This song has supernatural properties or something and it overPOWERS me. Oh, Lord. Did you know that you were magic? Applause and congratulations over this clip wouldn't be good enough. . .

[suxmassiveblackhole]

great job man. 5 stars!

[kittiekat916169]

i love this song, ur reli are amazin :D

[revisedtara]

..holy cap.

this damn near made me cry.

I hate you :P

[wittyandwise]

That was beautiful. Your voice is sweet. I really liked this! Great job.

[TrueConfessions]

Amazing!

[SCHKILLER]

your voice is sweet, the melody too ! I love your style ! and your yamaha !!! ^^

[goldnight]

i don't think it's different, but is that really a compliment? i think it sounds TOO much like cohen. but it is a cover, so.

[monkeylyric]

I think your vocals aren't really suited to this song, its lacks the raw emotion of both Leonard & Jeff. Its different but thats about it.

[Madeyvy]

un seul mot... merci =)

thank you

[ratherBfishin567]

how is this dude not huge yet

[savemesunset]

i agree! who put those people in charge! i demand a recount!!!

[TinManWAHOG]

How is this dude not huge yet???Because I believe you choses not to be..."At least at this time and Place...And IMO he is "Already Huge"...With the Love Of Just Sharing HIS Music...

[oregondani]

Awesome! Great rendition! Beautiful voice! Thanks for the wonderful music.

[thierrycc]

whou, thats thats the best version ever !!

[Acoustix77]

great great great! I'm doing this one on guitar!

I'm asking myself which one of us has the smallest hands ;-) Must me a sign of a great artist :P :P

[pinkpitbull]

Love it - thanx 4 sharin Jake!

[Luvxtrostis]

oh. man you have some skills... Hey jake, mind if i ask you it's piano piece?

[itsalexie]

Who cares if he's not the best pianist in the world, it still sounded beautiful, and this song gave me goosebumps :) Beautiful song, beautiful cover :)

[legzandherpiano]

this is my favorite song ever.. thank you for doing such a wonderful job on it. :) Good luck.

[peaches017]

nice, but your technique is poor.

[dids78]

a classic song,and a good cover. PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT TO CHECK OUT MY SONG

[elderarron]

Jake, loved your version. Thank you for posting it.

To the commenters on YT...

Whatever happened to "if you can't say something nice then don't say anything at all" ? I'm amazed at how many people take the time to write a comment that serves no purpose other than to negate the efforts displayed here. If you like it or love then let the artist know, if not...let it go! Do SOMETHING.... just try to NOT be mean and critical for 24 hours. Just try.

[cyman80]

Wow so many idiots quick to jump on a hate bandwagon. Maybe you should let the man explain himself before you start telling people you dont even know to kill themselves. Scary how so many boneheads can be brainwashed so quickly by someone like Greg.

[rennaynay88]

AWESOME.... you are amazing!

[akiri2k]

dude its great sounds perfect god knows what Xcalibrrr is talking about. keep it up =]]

[zeroeswing]

OMG. jake you friggin rock. this is one of my favorite songs.

rocks on

[seal1010]

I love it...makes me sad though...poor poor Marissa

[1spoiledbrat]

I don't think this song works for you. I like most of your songs, but this one just was not for you.

[Morfee]

definitely not classically trained on piano, seems afraid to use his thumb on his right hand for a start.

[DrugDrugDruggy]

dont mess with jeff! your voice does not work with this song, also you sang the word "played" really stupidly

[ekat2006]

Loved it , carry on ;)

[letskillterrorists]

only for you

[NoHoGir1s]

I am speaking objectively idiot.

[letskillterrorists]

how was i to know?

[sampala]

florentina florentina florentina de Jesus

[figzxx]

lol everytime i hear this song reminds me of the OC

[eliasbennis]

I AGREE :( but still, im a huge fan of Jake coco..

and yeah, reminds me of when mischa barton died on the show...

[Xcalibrrr]

You should get an engineer. The piano is distorted and your voice is indistinct and hard to hear. Otherwise, really good.

[nhwebguy]

Best I've heard since Jeff (I dont expect anyone else to hold that note.) You did it justice, just turn up that voice. You're AWESOME!!!!

[TMP20]

uhhh not one of your best

[esotericenigma]

Nice, but I just can't feel the emotion in your voice. You either didn't understand the meaning to the lyrics in the first place, or you just cared more about hitting notes, etc. This song is a powerfully emotional piece of art. I suggest you start singing from the heart instead of the mind.

[riverowl71]

great job --just need to adjust the volume. The instrument drowns out your voice too much.

[chrisbotron]

great.... but you can't fuck with Jeff Buckley

[philryanshow]

Hi Jake, I do a cover of this song in my concert set. I love the lyric. Lovely version from you by the way. Keep up the good work.

[MFZ007]

pleeez it hurts seeing you playing that beautiful instrument in this posture, . Place that S90ES a bit lower and I'll be happy again... great performace btw.

[bennyblunt]

fantastic comment.

[sunflowerstur]

I really like it.

[DJZapped]

Wow, that is a truly great cover of an amazing song

[YamsRus]

Loved it - check out kd langs version also.

[Mandskull]

Got bored of that in a real hurry.

[Fionullathefurious]

gdgd, but I still think Jeff Buckley's is the only version I will love!

[ares000z]

hey guys check out my music video!! it's funny!!!

[soelde]

beautiful. thanks.

[apple217]

pretty good=) i like your voice...

[AussieinHK]

Jeff Buckley will always have the best ever version of this song.

Definitely in my top 10 songs of all time. If you have never heard Jeff Buckley, look him up on youtube.... awesome, unbelieveably awesome....

[LanMan1812]

Well Done

[larrythemick]

yeah, alright. pretty easy song to sing and play, though. and it's such a great song it's kind of hard to screw it up.

[SaveDaveCampaign]

pretty good cover performance man!

--

sorry for the shameless self promotion

www.pleasesavedave.COM

PLEASE SAVE DAVE: the guy stuck in cyberspace with little more than a pair of shorts.

*ninja exit*

[aurially]

Pretty good, but I prefer Jeff Buckley's version by far =)

[annekehielkema13]

gorgeous voice, and not the easiest song! you've pulled it off well!!

[randnm]

Nice!

[willing2byours]

hmmm not bad at all.

[Coppermine211]

Love the Wainwright interpretation, but musically, this was spot on; well done.

[monkey1]

wow i never would have guessed u could sing like that. i did this cover than deleted it:D

[ashaman5]

why is this getting 5 stars?

has ppl not heard the buckley or cohen versions?

wtf

[tipc2311]

WIN! Starting 12 November 2006, just watch this video for details: www.*youtube*.com/wat*ch?v=IXB­dGsvKOio (Remove stars)

[Clement11226]

You are killing leonard cohen & jeff buckley's music!!!

And were does that hoorrible accent come from!

[Wadochicchan]

you've tried...

[Wadochicchan]

stop doing cover

cover yourself and spread new harmonies..

Jeff was Jeff and his songs was his songs

[thefirstoutrance]

Jeff was Jeff except when Jeff wasn't Jeff and Jeff was himself covering a song by Leonard Cohen. So Jeff doing covers and not "spreading new harmonies" brought a great song to you! Maybe this guy is bringing this great song to other new people too.

[kevo1110]

Awesome cover homes =)

Excellent song, and an excellent effort!!! KUDOS!!!

[tehdreamer]

not bad i thought, apart as it said above your playing technique needs improvement ))

[kbubblez]

love it :o)

[monkman1000]

ocatavions right...but really good, probly better than the one me and my friend did (see my video)

[Ocatavion]

Your elbows need to be horizontal to the ground when you play. Playing with your arms at an angle is bad for your hands.

[thekingoftheworld25]

where did your thumb go on your right hand, and your pinky looks rediculously tiny...rofl

[elvisdechico]

leonard cohen & jeff buckley are rolling in their graves

[benkozuki]

cohen is still alive. hehe.

[elvisdechico]

he's kind of like bob dylan, where you just assume he's gotta be dead by now... hah... i stand corrected!

[simplekindoflovely]

Your voice isn't that bad, but Jeff Buckley sang it best.

[eeehhhh]

That was really great :)

[thelastdayx]

Great cover. You have a really nice voice, and the piano was fantastic. I think a lot of the haters on here have no idea what a classic song this is. I haven't seen anything else you've done, but judging by this video you're pretty good at what you do! Keep it up.

[dandace]

laaaaaaaaame. just like everything else that u have on here.

[utxslonghorn]

And I bet you have the capacity to produce something better.

[ineverlogin]

Really nice. =) I like it a lot.

[harjoittelija]

this is nice ^^ I love the way you sing it ^^ do you play this by ear? because in the interwiew you said that you played like that? or then I have misunderstooded.Nice vid anyway ^^

[Luna1337]

mmh. beautiful song with beautiful jake influence = beautiful² version :) Love it <3

[trailertrasht]

This sounds like a church song

[producert]

tune that piano jake

[MIpuppet]

you're retarded... it's an electric piano, meaning its liek a fake piano with no strings, it just imates the sound of a real one.

[juliengarros]

Wow 3 videos in one day know you really are the king of youtube

[jammxvideo]

thanks for the support

[jamesout]

leave jake alone I like this version

[Frenchieuk]

I liked the radio head better

[atomfrench]

Ok this is a little to long

[alliancegroup]

jake I like this cover

[SkyLeeAttack]

I already liked this song...but I LOVE this version. Thx for that man, u rocked it by far...

[trailertrasht]

This kid has a talent.

[sistah4reel]

I would LOVE to see Jake and John Legend do a song together.

[producert68]

Play that again Jake...

[producert]

Great vibe...

[monstahinlaw]

thay guy can SANG!

[Bobenton]

keep up the great job

[lofedizzle]

hi, your jake coco and your a fuckin cutie

[Brothawitarokhrdbone]

great job jake...

[alliancegroup]

nice sound

[Dragonhood]

You know we, here at youtube should feel special about the experience here. People like Jake are surely going to make it, and we are right here watching it happen right from his livingroom to our computer rooms. Can you image what it would have been like to watch Mic Jager or Bono from the beginning? be apart of their rise to fame?

[holymotherofgod2]

you know? i was thinkin the same thing, after watching a couple of talented artists. If i ever see this guy on television, i will be like "I saw that guy on YouTube waay before he became famous!"
