@collincdf Thanks for the comment. I wanted to slow it way down, because the original and almost all of the other covers of this song are more upbeat, when in my mind the song has a really angry and resentful vibe to it. I wanted to find a way to bring that out, so I took my own liberty with the timing. The beauty of doing a cover song, heh.
I love the way your voice stays lovely throughout the whole song, but you don't undercut the anger or shy away from it. That's part of the brilliance of Cee Lo's song, it contrasts the anger of the lyrics with the bouncy-pop of the song's production. Here, you've substituted acoustic beauty for bouncy pop, but the strange juxtaposition still works!
I'm over-analyzing. That's one of my hobbies.
Anyway, great job. Also, there are are plenty of Acoustic Covers of "Forget You." This is better.
Haven't heard the original, but your version sounds pretty bad ass, my dear! Glad to hear/see some of your other colors show in your singing. Sometimes you just gotta let that shit out! Have you ever listened to, or tried to cover any Fiona Apple songs? Her "Get Gone" song is pretty damn awesome and kinda related.
awe! you too cute! xD i hate that we have to warn people about this kind of stuff ya know. * frump. i love your cover! its so good to see new videos! keep of the fantastic work sweet cheeks! :D
sweet I can only hope Cee Lo hears this

This is nice, but it sounds too slow as a "meaningful" song.
You should refurbish this song, but do it with a hastened pace. I would touch your face with the happiness of a basket of warm puppies.

This one is a lot more sad than most covers of this song, while still keeping just enough anger. Cool.
