Bad Sneakers - Steely Dan

[KATAO333]

To hear someone as young as you tackling these songs, I have to give you props,

as a Dan fan and musician I call it like it is... good work dude.

[Norocmorth]

what are the chords?

[Jacquie88]

Great job :-)

[ThankGodforEvolution]

You have a good voice....but not a good voice for Steely Dan songs.

[Jacquie88]

Highly Disagree! 

[firesidechet]

@ThankGodforEvolution you know how to type well, but not much thought behind it.

[SurftarProductions]

nice...............

[thomasrabon666]

this is fantastic.

[Madimini]

You have a pretty voice but the way you sing this song alteres it completely. I prefer widely the original version. I wish you all the best if you want to belong to a boysband.

[nettzwerg82]

@Madimini

I agree, very, very good work on the keys, voice is not to bad, either. But maybe a bit too much vibrato here and there. I also have the 120s, had a Steely Dan Song book once, but I brought it back, because the arrangement was really bad. I like your playing quite a lot. I hope you can live with my little critique. Keep playing!

[HesleyCapey]

Nice playing and singing, five stars. - Makes me wish there were a bit better quality for the recording (or the video enconding).

[Bastiodon13]

[lukessummer]

Wow!...impressive

[MehefinHeulog]

about sixth time now

your diction and phrasing has even made this song better for me

and that was a tall order after about 30 years

[MehefinHeulog]

this is JUST WONDERFUL

you have REAL TALENT!!

[jaymusic143]

Man, as a life long Steely Dan fan, I gotta say this is pretty damn good. You have a great voice and a Fagen-esque touch of soul. Keep doin it, man.

One SMALL thing -- there's a chord change after "so alone" that you seem to be leaving out. Other than that, everything works!

[Vinnybrain]

Really good!  Come out to California ( Just to play in my band!)

[rdeberardinis22]

where are you from bro?

[JaYSpRE2007]

Connecticut

[rdeberardinis22]

[trigunlover11]

Dude! ^^ I love it, nice version you did.

[theblobber]

Nicely done, young man!

[spattered73]

Absolutely amazin, man. My uncle got me into Steely Dan when I was in high school. Your versions of both SD and Billy are literally the best I have ever heard/seen. Keep it up. Always lookin for more from you. Love it!

[godron]

oh my god dude, you ROCK!! brilliant singing. and that is one of my all time favorite songs, from my favorite album. keep up the good work, subscription added!

[godron]

ps... some time when you're bored, PLEASE give "Don't Take Me Alive" from The Royal Scam album a cover.. Also, "My Old School" from Countdown to Ecstacy. :)

[NPBluebird]

great song and a brilliant cover

well done mate

[gtristdan]

YOU ARE GREAT! And I LOVE Steely Dan...Bad Sneakers is a hard one to cover in my opinion and you nailed it!

Subbed!

Cheers from NY

[tjmpiano]

got hooked on them and still can't let them go... great rendition...

[LionheartVegas]

Great job! I remember when Katy Lied had just been released. I must have been about 20 years old. It's great to see a new generation appreciate and interpret this great music. You rock!

[andreaszx10r]

Many talent,beatifull voice,young age....all perfect...Italy comment!! lol

[RenoRaider]

i was gonna say...wtf ??? wrong key. lol like anyone would know.

[sealteem5]

i give this a thumbs and arms up great job i like it you were great awsome i added you to my favs ok love it

[xpac09]

Great job man you really sound good

[amplifya]

wow dude that was amazing. props.

[JaYSpRE2007]

Thanks a lot.

[igot1i]

Nailed it. Katy Lied is my favorite album. Most kids your age play bullshit. You've got class my man!

[ronandlane]

Sweeeeeeeeeet. Brought tears to my eyes. You really did this song justice. Donald would be proud of you my man.

Totally awesome.

Keep up the great work..:-)

[eikels]

ooh..nice ! great !!

[mpobuck1]

Keep it up. Donald Fagan is surely not unhappy to have you playing his compositions. Your versions are well done and you are clearly enjoying yourself. I will keep on steering people your way.

[thesquonkstear]

Don't listen to this guy, he is crazy. Just play normally, and try not to encourage him.

[mpobuck1]

Re-read my commentary. I have no advice for JaYSpRE, just positive feedback. On the other hand, your negativity and poor reading comprehension is not welcome here. Next time try to portray yourself in a positive light or just put some maple syrup in your hair.

[thesquonkstear]

As I said, you are crazy, and this young piano player should disregard your wild rants and raves about his playing. As I said, I was just messin with you Sasquatch, but since you feel the need to demonstrate my point, I'll thank you for perfectly illustrating my original point, as I said. Rain Dance!

[mpobuck1]

As I said, As I said, As I said. You are crazy man, you are crazy. I like you, but you're crazy. You act like you have an elephant tranquilizer dart stuck in your juggler. Put some ear muffs on when you are reading these comments and "Let it Rain". Don't forget your are not Columbo or for that matter Christopher Columbo.

[thesquonkstear]

Pick and Roll-- Outlet!  White Chocolate!

[JaYSpRE2007]

This seemingly preplanned dialogue has made my night... That was hilarious! How long have you two known each other?

[mpobuck1]

Nothing preplanned, but you are correct in that we know each other. In fact we have been friends for over 35 years. As you can see there is some syncopation in our responses.

[JaYSpRE2007]

Yes, it was either mumbo jumbo or inside jokes... I couldn't tell... It was hilarious though...

[RenoRaider]

I suspect you mean jugular.

[zelopes2007]

nice job man!!!

[thebrokenrose]

You are amazing! I love Steely Dan they are def. some major dudes! I admire you putting your own flavor into the song as well as keeping it balanced originally. Keep doing what your doing cause your amazing at it. paz, Angie Aries V

[smondello]

Just imagination... You weren't even born when SD were big! Nice versions. Nice voice. Just need to be aware of your tempo and attitude. Fagen always injects alot of sarcasm and wit in his vocal technic.

[themango90]

This is very good

[WashCommoner]

Really enjoyable and a nice version a classic.

[Stratman1920]

You are exceptionally talented. 5 stars!

[rogersat]

However, as a die-hard fan of Steely Dan, I need to say that if you were to play this song for a Steely Dan audience, I think you would have to take some of the drama out of it. I think the bit of perceived emotional detachment of Steely Dan music is part of what makes their music so ingenious. In the end, though, it winds up adding more emotional meaning to the songs at a higher intellectual level. Fagen and Becker don't give us "that cotton candy."

[rogersat]

Justin, you're piano playing is very musical, and you have a great voice. If you were going to play Steely Dan to the general public, this is how you would want to do it.

[Mikeya85]

kline and edgar, hes already said its in a lower key, cut him some slack, i think this is very admirable effort, well done!

[captadama]

Great version.

Can you do Kid Charlemagne?

[edgarallanpoet]

That isn't in the right key...
