  • like this a lot

  • what finger picking pattern are you using

  • you sound like mclovin.

  • Check out my Hey Ya acoustic cover guys! :)

  • the voice isn't as good as matt weedle but you got the fingerpicking down. its pretty good. try picking and strumming to bring it all together

  • @jbsmoke4free Matt Weedle sucks big time.

  • quelle voix

  • is there a chord missing in the verse? think there is.... maybe a c or c/g or c/f

  • The guy with that peard is Odadiah Parker

  • no. the band is obadiah parker his name is matt weddle

  • @HoLLyWOOD681 his name is actually Mat Weddle the band is Obadiah Parker

  • Obediah. Also nobody cares.

  • wow i love your voice <3

  • That was really well done. I really enjoyed listening to it. I like how you made the cover your own and picked it instead of just copying the chords.

  • the "guy with the ridiculous beard" sounds a lot better imo. But to each person their own. I like the picking pattern not just strumming over and over again.

  • gahaha i love you're so amazing! Best voice and ill guitar.

  • your voice is so soothing :)

  • Beautiful!!!!Five Stars!!

  • SWEET!

  • maybe im wrong, but i think its mat wenndle

  • your right, his name is Mat Weddle

    he is the lead sing of obadiah parker

  • i can see a man boob

  • yeah, and it's you (:.

  • nice videoo mann.. and i was saying that guy was a duick sayin yur shit ... nice cover :) 5/5

  • I'd like to see you try!!!!!!!! all you do is sit half naked in front your computer and talk shit. So YOU better Shut the FUCK up, before I come home for dinner and see ya!

  • "The ridiculous beard" ?.. It's awesome, you're not even showing you face, hehe, point being; it was pointless to mention it. Anyhow, you did a descent job with the cover, it sounds good.

  • i think it was a great cover well done :D

  • magnifique version je suis sous le charme bravo :) trés belle voix joli jeu de guitare vraiment parfait

  • Good job! Keep it up. Ignore the Alex dude. Sounds like he needs some serious help or medication. :)

    I like the softness in your voice. If I were sitting in front of you while you played this, I'd be swooning. :)

  • ahh man thats not very nice

  • Comment removed

  • this reminds me of my friend Josh. Back at UDel, he used to play his guitar and sing this song this way every morning for a straight week. he was a loser, but a really funny guy

  • he was a loser, but a really funny guy. thats funny.

  • One fat white guy makin' an acoustic cover of and otherwise brilliant funky-song is enough. My grandma's dead dog could sing better than you!

  • dont be jealous ! this cover kills

  • this might just be my favorite song

  • Well done but Matt Weddle was amazing

  • sounds great :)

  • great

    cute voice

  • This is not bad... But check out this guy he does an AWESOME pianoversion of the song:

    'Bas Hey Ya'

  • i have that capo.

  • this is a good cover, but damn I love your capo dude, where did you get it? good voice, but no offense i cant make out the tab and picking?

  • who the fuk would be offended by that?..

  • they were only being polite.

  • ridiculous beard? damn i wish i could grown a sweet beard, then i could get all the ladies, ahhhh beards, good playing too man, but beards, now thats a different story , if i had a beard i would keep my wallet or car keys because my swish shorts don't have pockets, or i could braid it , like that one guy,i saw this one beard and  it was so long the guy put it over his face and put glasses on like cookie monster only cookie monster dosent wear glasses, unless hes raping with elmo and bigbird

  • big up! nice job!

  • good job :D

  • great job.

  • your voice is fucking beautiful.

    :)

    . i love this.

  • mutiş

  • The other guy is better.

  • the guitar playin was so peaceful, but the voice was a big let down, whyte boys aint got no soul but you get a PASS 4tryin!, oh and dont hate me 4my comments, its JUST an opinion...

  • a racist opinion, asshole.

  • I think the original poster is probably latino or asian, not white.

  • n1ggerpuncher's only skill trade is suckin cock

    yeah the high notes were a little off and there wasnt much feeling but i think it was properly done playing wise... only give constructive criticism..dont be a dick

  • haha.

  • he sounds high, he needs to be more happy and fast

    this isnt a song to be slow dancning to lol

  • what are the tabs?

  • you fukced up the lyrics but good job other wise

  • your cover was soothing. i liked it.

  • why are u using a third bridge?

  • You mean a capo? To change the key into an easier one to sing in.

  • capo is the name of the device, but what it does is create a third bridge. Anyways, thanks

  • maybe hes voice is better when he is singing higher..? cant you think for your self? why ask that?

  • god, i dont want to start another youtube argument. This is lame......

    Im sorry

  • hey man..just browsin youtube..gotta love insomnia. just look at it this way, you have over 73,000 views, so that means you cant suck that bad...keep up the good work, you sound better than half the people on this damn site

  • poser poser poser poser

  • stfu you motherfuckerrrrrrr.

    :D

    you anus.

    he's got a niceee soothing voice so keep your sucky opinion to yourself.

  • oh wait i did write that lol i was referring to chucko642's comment he has a cock in his mouth or more his keyboard lol

  • good cover, not as good as Matt's, it sounds too depressing

  • The guy with the "ridiculous beard" did way better.

    Nothin personal...

    Director of the federation of bearded musicians.

  • It's different, which can only be a good thing but it'll take alot to beat Matts version.....

  • really nice, differnet form matt weedle's one, both are excellent and you are greatly talented

  • great job, this is a thousand times better than matt weedles cover. keep it comin!!!

  • it's exactly the same... he just finger-picked it.

  • awesome job...your better than me when i sing this song.... never knew this song could be covered on acoustic... heh :)

  • This is great.

  • Hey dude :D

    Your voice is really niceee ..!!!

    great song,fells good to listen.. U should put a smooth basss riff on thiss youd be great :P

  • kewl dude^^

  • i thought it was a cool twist on the music. subtly different, but still close enough to be a cover..but also different...

    that made no sense, anyway, cool cover, i thought

  • not so good dude...

  • Man, you have a nice voice you're just bringing it a little bland... work on that and you'll be set.. ill guitar playing.

  • sry but your voice isn't good!!!!

  • way to kill his version, man im sorry, mat weddle's is the best

  • i do not really like your voice but it is nicely play

  • genial

  • He doesnt have a ridiculous beard! No need to comment on it anyway.

    Nice version!

  • this is amazing.

    your voice is so nice.

  • wack. no flavor.

  • That guy below should go and get a job and stop wa*king over his mum! Your proper good guitarist mate well done!!

  • Awesome job. :)

  • you have little nasal in your voice, but is good. go to singing lesson, i have to say

  • I'm sorry, but the guy with the ridiculous beard's (as you say) version is quite better. Saludos from Spain.

  • Check out my cover of it and please comment to let me know what you think.

  • omg.. i luv the acoustic version of hey ya!

  • Since about 10 people have asked for the tabs, are they on the internet yet? I'm not talking about the way Weddle plays it, I'm referring to the picking pattern in this one.

  • you can find em on ultimate-guitar(dot)com

    look up hey ya acoustic, its under obidiah parker or something crazy!

  • hi sounds gd to me but slightly confused to how the music is in sync at start but is terribly out by the end. also your capo'd on 2nd any reason or is another one of your twists? lol, but anyway a gd cover and lovely voice!

  • SWEET VOICE! GOOD JOB MAN

  • ¨Dont pay attention to the jealous retards... Great Version too.

    Love that you dont stroke the chords, but keeps it mellow and fingerplay it :) ... Great job

  • Mmmm mellow...

    Love it.

  • Hey! great job u did there, but i like matt weddle's version a little more :). And don't listen to those jealous people.. it's good!

    greetz

  • Your "twist" is that you made it suck.

  • Fuck you, you're just jealous

    Well done, man, you gave a good rendition as a non-professional - you chose a good key for the average person to do. I'm gonna cover this song for a school assignment, but I'm gonna do a few of the choruses an octave higher. (I think that's an F# on hey? My "perfect" pitch is playing up at the moment so yea I'll need to check that)

    Well Done again man

  • Sweet video! You should visit _mytubex.com_ to generate your own youtube video player

  • I thought was a very good rendition of the song. Well done. Personally, I think there is nothing wrong with getting to know - and play a song which is a cover of a cover.

  • i love it accept for the abrupt ending (:

  • send me the tabs please :) thank you, and your cover is good :D

  • Yo.

    Its capo on the 4th fret then its literally chord progression of C, F, G then Am. Easy.

  • no it's not.

  • please send me the tabs, great job..

  • He's doing this to show the chords.

  • it sounds good......but this is the work from another man you just coverred his versoin this is not fair

  • Did you read the description numbnuts?

    Jesus fucking christ some people are retards.

  • nice voice...could use a little more range and strength though

  • You have a nice tone in your voice, not sure about the guitar playing though :) Take a listen to my contribution in swarming the internet with hey ya covers :P

  • good job.but obadiah parker's version is much better i think

  • this sounds great, could you post the tabs? msg me on youtube

  • As above, capo on 4th fret, then C,F,G,Am

    Thats literally it, except a few hammer ons im sure you can figure out.

  • I LOVE UR VOICE!

  • amazing :)

    seems to be L C G :)

  • wow, you rock

    great voice too

    can tell me the chords u are using

    i try the G.C.D,E chords but it doesnt sound right

    thanks =]

  • yeh could u send me the exactl tabs too? best version iv heard!

  • You KICK ASS

  • nice cover. when you bring your thumb onto the e-string for the F bass note you need to shape the rest of the chord with your spare fingers instead of leaving it on C. It'll sound alot better.

  • yeh ive since realised that. IN fact i can play the whole thing much better now but cant be bothered to redo it. God listening to this is making me cringe, ive missed lyrics and the melody isnt write :O oh well its the thought that counts. THanks 4 the advice dude. Listen to the other stuff and tell me what u think.

  • Beautiful :)

  • yeah i agree

  • learn to breathe

  • You have a very Will Young-esque voice. I like.

  • This is a great cover. Keep going man, apreciate you sharin' this.

  • beautiful man. you have a great voice. this is awesome. a little advice, try workiking on dispensing the air from your lungs evenly, that way it won't sound like you are pushing in spots, that will make your beautiful song perfect.

  • hey could you message me those exact tabs- everything i find is just chords, and im trying to find tabbing

  • great job man iv tryed it with classical and harmoica! check it out man

  • hey if you can

    send me the tabs of this through aim?

    aim = mclaoblack

    I'd tottally appreciate it man -=]

    i really wanna learn how to play it

    ps.

    Nice voice!

  • really nice picking!

  • i tell u what, u know uve made a popular video when u start gettin spammed, i dont even think its that good. Anyway thanx for all comments.

  • Nice. I love the covers too... Acoustic versions can be a tremendous thing!! lol

  • Great job !!!

    Very nice

  • I love this song sung like this

  • i love all the covers i've heard of hey ya. each voice is different, all good. i like yours a lot, 5 stars<3

  • wow great job man. i like matt's a lil more but your's is still amazing. id like to see some more of your work so ill add ya and see if u post anything new up. again, great job.

  • The version that JD Natasha did is very PRETTY!!

  • You have an AMAZING voice!! =D

  • you cut out the "shake it" part, but i dont blame you those part of the lyrics doesnt fit the melody, although mat weddle did such an AMAZING job of setting up a climax in his song, good stuff bro

  • i'll give you a five out of five yet i do prefer Matt's version. Matt has an amazing voice that i listen to his version over and over. Yours is good and it adds something else but it is only my opinion that i prefer Matt's. I'm sure a lot of people enjoy yours just as much if not more. Good job

  • I will say that Mat Weddle's version is much better, but you could definately do something with yours. Needs a bit of work but it could definately be one of the better Hey Ya covers out there with a tad more work. Good job mate.

  • Awesome subhasish! My mate Kieran liked it too! Keep up the good work! See you over xmas! Send me a facebook! David.

  • ...not bad..not bad...large white dude still kicks ass...

  • i love your voice :>

    <3 i really love it...

  • y are u guys saying he sucks hes fuckin good..i bet all you ppl say that.. cant even play a chord

    good job dude

  • someone man write guitar chords?

  • tune ur guitar first man,dun hv money to buy a tuner?

  • Hey guys don't get me wrong I prefer the Matt Weddle version too. Infact I performed that one live and it went down a treat, but i wanted to try my own thing, but if anyone wants to trash me about my creativity go nuts just be creative in your criticsms too. I'm not looking for poetry but simply saying 'dun have money to buy a tuner' makes me think you didnt have money to get a half way decent education. Keep the comments coming retarded or otherwise they make for a good read!Many thanks.

  • You suck, but hey if you could play the guitar, keep a tune, and be musically creative it would have been great.
