Where did you get your guitar and how much did it cost? I'm a beginner at guitar. like as in i don't know anything about playing guitar except for a few things. But i don't know any chords or anything like that. Whats the best way for me to get started on learning to play? Any help would be great. [: Just reply or post a comment on my channel, whatever is easiest. Thanks! And your video is really good, nice vocals. :)
I have never felt compeled to post on you tube before...You inspired me. One of the best covers I have ever heard and I have heard countless.Well done my friend!
wow the only thing that would have made this any better is for the drummer from live to come play with you, or the band live needs a new singer and they should give you a call this was very well done
by far this is the best cover of this song. i looked at the others on youtube and none are this awesome. close to the original and yet very different. thanks for this post awesome. btw i favorited it
Hi stephen im calvin's son my dad always talk about you and your good singing and guitar skills...... i think u are the best singer alive and dead i love that song lighting crashes.... u are the best
love the guitar playing and your voice!!!!! so awesome!!! hey, what chords do you use?? i really wanna learn this on guitar, yours sounds best so far!!!!
thank you very much. i appreciate that. song is super simple....chords i use are F, C, and G....timing is a little different from verse to chorus....get that down and you've got it licked. lickedy. haha.
thank you very much, bud. the axe is a taylor 614CE. absolutely the best acoustic guitar i've ever played....just happen to be blessed enough to own it. have a great holiday, my man.
I've been singing this song for a while at karaoke and I'm just starting to learn to play guitar and sing. I think this will be the next song I try. I really enjoyed your version. Hard to believe, but it was worth missing golf for!
Dude your vocals are so spot on. I love it man. Very accomplished. I liked the LA hat better though! I grew up in LA and went to a lot of games. I miss that great team with Garvey and those guys! Good stuff!
you mad somebody with a mullet can jam better than you? haha. just messin...it was all one length, by the way. but i'm down with the english mullet. had one for a while. you'd like it.
i have soul, huh? THAT'S right. i'm super excited about that. i try to let that soul hang out as much as possible. thank you very much. and i used to LOVE kudos. hahahaha. remember them?
great guitar.and voice is awsome. i don't want to critcise i usually criticise the people who criticise and i wish i had half your talent but stumming i thought was a little too funky for such a sad, meaningful song.
I'm impressed with your rhythm and voice here man, i'm just starting out, but this song seems really hard to play and sing at the same time with the muting that occurs throughout the song...very good cover in my book
very good you might think that playing this song isn't being very experienced but don't be down buddy you are very very good, and your vocals were beautiful add me please
Found you through Jimmy Garrett. YOu've got talent. Makes me sick when so many talents get wasted sitting in their home-sofa while some good-lookin Divas get big record-contracts just because they sing in some stupid TV-show called Idols... Really breaks my heart... Five stars for you!
freaking awesome!! but just a question, did u skip the bridge part of the song?
