  • great voice man! keep it up

  • Dude.. your so good

  • I just wanted to say thanks for all the jack videos they have been a big help in learning his songs

  • Beautiful, marry me?

  • Thx so much man for posting. This is one of my fav songs, and u pretty much taught me how to play it. Your playing was great, and the singing to. Keep up the good work man.

  • Love it! Gonna give this a go myself!

  • You are really good, congratulations!

  • Mega like (:

  • can someone please tell me the strumming pattern? cause i really want to learn this song so badly... =(

  • dude that was really badass

  • hey man, your covers are some of the best around, i just joined a band. Now im the lead guitarist and lead vocal. I was wondering if u might have any tips on how to play good on guitar while keeping a good voice through the song

  • awesome!!!!

  • I don't like you!

    you are just to goood! you are amazing man!

    I wish I could play and sing like you! pure awesomeness!

    Keep Playing and Singing! you are the best man!

  • My only concern is that your vocals are louder than your guitar. It could be that you have the guitar panned to the right side(and my right speaker is blown), but I have my stereo panned left, so I would think I'd still be able to hear your guitar fine.

    Good job none the less, definitely one of the better singers I've heard doing these types of songs.

  • Of all the covers I have heard to this song... Yours is the best I've heard and I think it's so good! Seems like you should be in a studio making albums or CDs. You should think about that. ( which I'm sure you have )

    Keep up the great work I will be looking forward to your new stuff. Thanks for sending me this link. Take care.

  • cool voice

  • wow brother this is tight.... real class man... real class....

  • Are you the real jack johnson? haha reaaaalllyyy good, man.

  • This is great man !

  • Good voice and playing dude! Thanks for sharing

  • i just cant get enough of this song, or your cover version hehe. thank you so much for sharing it

  • that was amazing.

  • Esta cancion es muy buena buena

  • Really Good, Well done

  • Could you show the strumming pattern?

  • real good man

  • great song!!  does anyone know what the song means?

  • He wrote it about his kids and about how quickly they are growing and will one day move in their own directions. B

  • @bradintampa I read that it's also about moving on after losing someone close to you.

    "There are still so many things I wanna say to you" or "As the light is leaving town, to a place that I can't be" might refer to this.

  • @bradintampa Actually I heard him say on stage, its about a family member that died.

  • @bradintampa Hey Brad, wondering where you heard that from? Not trying to argue or anything, just really interested if jack really said he wrote it about that . . . Cause i interpreted it as it was a song for his friend Danny Riley who died of cancer and just about loved one's dying and how we live vicariously through them etc. Let me know man, good stuff with the guitar btw!

  • @erikh24 actually it's written about danny riley. jack was his best friend up until the day he died in jacks arms. danny is jack's wife kim's cousin

  • heaps good

  • your insane!!! wow!!

  • Ohu yeah! Fucking god!

  • rak harab....its in my language and means...u rock man...very good

  • jack johnson i really love u

    JUST GO ONNNNNN

    LC

  • Just like Jack Johnson

    Nice!

  • awesome !!!!!!

  • WOW

    like this song too

  • hey nice cover, are 13 gauge strings best for jack johnson's music? i currently have standard 12's on my yamaha. i wan to get D'Addario. please help

  • i think 12 or 11`s try elixir too!

  • Very great guitar and even better vocals. Your voice sounded better as the song progressed. 5 stars!

  • Ya know -when i hear you sing Jack Johnson , Its almost like i am listenin to Jack him self , You are really good , Jack would be proud ,

  • what strings do you use

  • D'Addario medium gauge 13's.

  • k thanks my strings are horrible i like yours alot do u use a cole clark guitar

  • hey if ur looking for good strings try some martin acoustic lights theyre perfect for this type of music

  • very GOOOD!! :)

  • I see your perfect little eyes

    Watch the shadows of the clouds

    On the surface of the ocean

    Out the window of a plane

    I get nervous when I fly

    I'm used to walking with my feet

    Turbulence is like a sigh

    That I can't help but over think

  • What is the purpose of my life

    If it doesn't have to do

    With learning to let it go

    Live vicariously through you

    You can do the same

    It's the least you can do

    Because it's a lonely little chain

    If you don't add to it

  • wow, good job man

  • good job bro

  • insane job dude!

  • lol I could have sworn that the lyrics were "I see your perfect little lies"

  • How do you record the guitar?

  • wheres the description box at? wheres the chords

  • the description box is on the right were the video informations are

  • It's oh so beautiful Brad!

    Keep up the beautiful work!

    Much love!

  • great job dude

  • nice job not to mention a great song

  • class

  • you cover awesome but when i play this song i play the A not in barre, i think it sounds better, but no matter your great ..

  • Wow man nice I had to listen closely at the beginning to see if it was you or Jack, great job.

  • im amused, people usually do covers that are SIMILAR to how the artist plays it, but you... you do it just like jack does it, xcept for the voice obiously, but the strummin, "speed" of singing.. everythig

    congratulations.

  • I love watching you play bro because you enjoy playing as much as I do. A little six string and a good cover makes the world go around. I enjoy it keep playing!

  • Nice song thanks for sharing

    5*

    great music and great video.

    Master Lee Mochow

  • Mint!

  • Ya, can we hear your originals? We know you have some.....

  • This is my favorite song off the new album. Great cover!!!

  • Brilliant!!!

    I'm a big Jack Johnson fan, really enjoyed that.

    Great voice too :)

  • Really amazing man.. WOW.. Been watching your vids for awhile.. you inspired me to start playin acoustic and im lovin it!!  Keep up the great work.

  • Wow, extremely great!! Is the strumming similar to your Banana Pancakes where you strum with all your fingers on the one beat??

    Thanks

  • Thank you wa8ars!  yes, strumming is very similar to that...maybe more of just the downstoke with pointer finger on this one though. Cheers! Bradly

  • Thanks Brad, appreciate the help!!

    Best, Mike

  • very very useful.

    i didn't kno it used a A barre chord, so i used to play with the A open chord

  • Sweet Microphone! What is it?

  • Honestly man, you nailed it. Thats was amazing to say the least. Keep on doing what you're doing and you'll end up like Jack.

  • hey man...great job...im from peru, you have a good voice....write your own songs and make your own style...good luck

  • hey brad, thanks for sharing your stuff on youtube. i really am a big jack johnson fan.so, i don't like to but i have to tell you that i think, you're cover of go on is even better than jacks. Thanks

  • hey bradly!

    i really like your cover of go on, probably the best i've seen on youtube so far.

    i always wanted to tell you that i really appreciate what you*re doing here on youtube. you're covers are one of the bests around.

    thanks a lot for your music man!

    oh btw there is no cover of jack's "hope" yet...maybe soon? :P

  • nice

  • ok this is my favorite song u play. and im not gonna lie i play these songs when i want some good music to listen to while im chillin. lol i still listed to jacks versions too haha

  • Good work.

    Im a beginner guitarist and i wanna know how long does it takes to play at the guitar so beautiful.

  • hey brad how are you getting the chopping sound? im a beginner and i want to learn to play the song.. also the strumming pattern? i figured id ask you since you seem to know what you are doing.. haha..thanks

  • hey rk,

    Jack and Brad both hit their palm of the hand on the strings to make the "Chopping sound' on the 2nd and 4th beat. down chop, down up down up chop

  • i would like to see you performing "hope" by JJ!! nevertheless, wonderful cover!

  • love it

  • Very nice! I'm a beginner guitarist and i actually have been watching alot of your videos for help!

  • I have to say your seriously damn good. Everytime I listen to Go On, I keep expecting your voice, then I realize that it's JJ's song. Don't you have a recording contract or something? If not you should have, your seriously damn good.

  • AWESOME! YOU'RE AMAZING! YOU LOOK AND SOUND LIKE JJ TOO! u sure you're not related? :\

    hey could someone tell me what the strumming pattern is pleeease?

  • Thanks s much for saying Tanim1993! The strumming pattern is just a continuous up/down 1,2,3,4 pattern...I kinda switch it up and slow it down on this version based on the speed of the lyrics...just my personal interpretation of it :-) Thanks again and Cheers! Bradly

  • thanks a lot for replying! And I really do mean it when I saw your awesome! Thanks again!

  • man, your covers are just awesome. i don't know what to say ;] These covers are the best covers i've ever heard. Especially JJ covers :) Good luck ;)

  • dude are u using a pick? great cover by the way.

  • NO, no pick. Thank you kindly :-) Bradly

  • Some of your lyrics are wrong. It should be:

    "and I gave you your life but you give me mine"

    "I see your perfect little eyes" not lives.

    ^thats from the album lyrics

    It doesn't at all change the fact that your doing a great job on all of your covers. Thanks for this!!!!

  • you're great, go on tour i'd attend!

  • what kind of taylor is that? a 314ce?

  • very impressive good job man...let me know if you have any original content

  • I have been listening to you for a while now..... you are truly an amazing guitar hero and vocalist and each of your songs has your own unique style that no one else has. Do you have any original songs?

  • hay brad i have watched alot of your videos and your amazing but im having trouble for this song i have the chords down for it but the strumming i cant get can you give me like a down down up up or something thanks -Brandon

  • id say it is...d u u d u, and after the first down you kinda give it a little "slap/tick" on the strings..

  • Well said atiswell :-) B

  • Thanks very much snoowwiz72. I would say it's kind if a "1 down, up/down 1-2-3-4" type strumming pattern. I'm muting all the stings on the last strum of each progression with the bottom of of my thumb to give it that "slap" sound. Hope this helps some...Bradly

  • beauty rendition pal... do more covers buddy haha

  • HaHa..thank you much kwonger88!  B

  • excellent cover

  • Thank you gabbahey45! Bradly

  • HaHa...thanks so much jeeyer. Bradly

  • Thanks so much...it's Taylor 110ce cutaway. Bradly

  • hey i was just wondering what are some resonably priced good quality guitars that u recomend

  • Taylors make good lower-end models, as does Martin and Guild (GAD series). The Guild GAD-30R is the model I was playing for awhile..great sound for the price. Hope this helps. Bradly
