Cock Sparrer's "Because You're Young" on Banjo

[kejos]

nice

[Corflamum]

Hahaha, I'm honestly surprised how much I like this version.

You should drop it down a major second, though. Your voice will be in more control.

[dboyoioi]

cheers and oi

[guitargczr699]

Do you play with a pick or something because if not your hand must be torn to shreds!? :O

[Yermaw89]

Brilliant rendetion! I think this song could be covered in any style though and still retain its brilliant message.

[pedropinchegordo]

Superb!

[scattnasty]

[MVLowlifes]

The ultimate accolade was a week ago when CockSParrer invited Elliot to their gigs in Chicago as a guest, and he performed for them in their dressing room prior to them going on stage. respect Elliot, I enjoyed meeting you, glad you enjoyed the weekend, see you sometime on the road again. (C)

[jimifitz138]

skinhead jews??

We're the Brews

Sportin' anti-swastika tattoos

Oi Oi we're the boys

Orthodox, hasidic, O.G. Ois

[megaproll]

wow very emotional. big cs fan, thanks for that unusual version.

[squashandstretch]

less talking more playing. fuck

[RedBlacknBlue]

Don't mind the possibly untalented/envious faggot below me that found nothing but your hat to remark on..I'm sure Micky (Beaufoy-the writer of Sparrer's songs) would be impressed

[DIYWMD]

nice hat fag

[ornamentalyouth]

this is pretty cool but this

"This may be the first time in history a Jew has ever covered a song by a skinhead punk band."

is kind of silly because you make it sound like all skinheads are nazis. most aren't. there are skinheads of all backgrounds including jewish. it probably just depends on where you live. skinhead culture grew out of a mix of british and jamaican cultures in the first place.

[jaymusseato]

lemme guess...you were home-schooled?

[hls138]

Cocksparrer are one of my favorite bands and that was amazing to hear on a banjo.

[wakeywakey2009]

Really,Really GooD !!!

[BILLY456DOLYE]

Sing it more manly..... but still fucking funny

[Kogaratsu]

Man i love this song. You rule!

[beautyofsilence]

Can we cover this on tour too!?!?! holy shit I love cocksparrer

[surfsussman]

Of course we can lady! Actually, I bet "Riot Squad" would sound great with harmonies.

[ciccioweasel]

FANTASTIC!

[agnostoatomo]

Great... please keep up playing on Banjo Songs that Rock like Cock Sparrer....maybe you'd like to play Harmony in my head by the Buzzcocks...could Sound great too on Banjo...however i love listenin'and gonna watch out for u

[BovverViolent]

wow so good!

cheers mate

[OiTheChris]

First time a Jew has covered a skinhead band? Pfft. Being a skinhead aint about hate. I know plenty of Jewish kids that listen to Oi!. Keep it up dude! Cover "Songs for the Youth" by Patriot next!

[surfsussman]

I'm well aware of that, it was more of a quick jab at those ignorant idiots who assume Skinhead Punk is racist. "Songs for the Youth" is a killer tune, but there's something melodically fun and simple at Cock Sparrer songs. I've been thinking of doing "Riot Squad" for awhile now (especially because my last name is Sussman and the opening line being potentially a pun of the word "Suss"ed in my case). Maybe I'll get on that. Cheers.

[OiTheChris]

sounds good, looking forward to it.

[MrBandoleroNegro]

@OiTheChris

Exactly this song is Oi! NOT R.A.C. or white noise.

In Europe the most famous Oi! band is Los fastidios(Italia)

R.A.S.H.(///). and S.H.A.R.P.

Yes I am spanish redskin.

In U.S.A. are R.A.S.H. Sections like -Boston,Nueva York, Filadelfia, Pittsburg and Texas

[cojones2000]

want to chat?

[Assurez]

nice fuckin job dude

[outclass]

Hello from Bulgaria!

Hey man, you are rockin'

I've been listening your cover version over and over again. It's wonderful! Thank you!

Please make a cover of AC/DC, would be great!

[SpideyPunk]

haha what a wonderful world, love the solo!

good stuff mate.

[ishabaka]

A skiffle version of "Because You're Young" - any Cockney skin would have to love it.

[epmister]

Tiene su gracia, ¡¡pero no te cargues temazos como este!!

[lmaherm]

"This may be the first time in history a Jew has ever covered a song by a skinhead punk band." i know a few jewish skinheads that are in bands.

i wouldnt have thought so, anyway pretty cool stuff i love sparrer ( pronouced like the bird sparrow but in a cockney accent so "sparra" )

[bobsonofbob]

cock sper?

cock spar?

Who you talking about mate??

Oh Cock Sparrer!

classic band!

[surfsussman]

I thought I pronounced the band name just fine (for an American).

[delorme42]

Boss, I'm not sure of the banjo playing but for sure you have a good voice. ..... not bad for a one man band LOL

[nicop84]

Amazing ! Do you play in GDAE ??

[surfsussman]

I do indeed play it tuned to GDAE.

[ANWL]

Hey man, just got an email from Micky Beaufoy of COCKSPARRER over this. I think it's brilliant, u do it proud, u sing with the passion the song needs, but it sounds like an unplugged version (lol). respect and 10/10 , well done mate.

[contradictators]

Very good Rendition. :-)

[chrismess13]

Ha, pretty cool. This is one of my favorite songs. Like the solo and that you keep the spirit of the song.
