@jaessyfizzle Thanks for taking the time to coment. Yeah its pretty nice...I think maybe because its kinda the surf folk who listen to this song and surfers dont live in a twee filled polypropylene tube.......they've got bigger things to do and life is short : ) Have a great day!
good stuff Mickey prefer that one to the original more mellow nice ha yeah and also to me best cover out there at the moment thank you beautifull song mate good vibrations
@Lazwanna Cheers buddy...its that kinda song hey...funny thing is Jon Swift is American but I feel like he wrote it for Aussies! Thanks for the comment...
Hay I have been trying to figure out the picking but I just can't get it right. If you could tell me a little or get Nedgey or Aaron to leave me a comment that would be awsome but if not don't worry. Thanks
Hey Stunning...if it will help I will put up a short vid to show u how to do the strumming. It may have to wait for the weekend though....things are a bit flat out.
Nice really nice but can you please make a tutorial on how to play this song. There isn't one and I have been pilling my hair out to try and play this song. Please make a tutorial
@stunning257 Thanks stunning. Nedgey and Aaron play this properly. i would look to pick up what you can from their clips. Having said that playing it properly would be very challenging. My version is much easier. The chords I used are
c g am f c g am(hammer on and off) (x2)
f g (stars will makeyou feel..like you got ...)
c (..friends)
watch the clip to get the picking style. Cheers Mikey
very kind thanks..however i think the reason most ppl dont fingerpick is that most video gear is not sensitive enough for it...I was lucky in this instance to have a sound tech mate who recorded for me : )
Hi, its Colintve, you posted on my video of So Alive, just wanted to say thanks so much for your comments. Most comments we got were negative from the games playing world, so I turned the feature off. Nice to know someone likes it. I watched your video and thought it great. TBH not my kind of music taste, but really nice sound, great voice and liked the video, professional feel with amateur kit I thought. Thanks again and good luck :)
Hi Colintve. Thanks for the comments. It means a lot coming from a professional. Sveta did a great job with Still (So) Alive and the quality of the video is obvious. Gamers can get pretty precious about their world so given that the clip is better than most versions it seems clear that they are reacting to the changed lyrics. A shame because it was such a good job. Well done to all involved.
Stegs thanks so much for that...especially since you usually don't leave a comment. It is very rewarding for me that you would send a message and even more so that you replay the song. Thanks again. Mikey
You are ALL talent! I love love love your song....your version is without a doubt waaaay better than the original....there is simply no comparison. This is my absolute favourite in all the world.
Me too schmoodie bum. I knew if I focussed I could remember to hang up that bath mat! Next challenge...eat some of that green stuff on the plate...and not hide it under the couch....xlovex
*chuckle* Cheers Mocstar. Yeah some of my fishing buddies have some issues with the hat too lol. But that last Bledisloe showed that they are both champion teams. Go the All Blacks!
Frizey thats real nice of you to say. Yeah mate I'm an Aussie. Live at the other end..Darwin. Its getting warm here - bout 36 but thats ok cause the barra are coming on the bite woo hoo! Take care. Mike
You are very kind Tim. I have been showing your comments to my family and friends! I cant agree that this effort matches the original...I am so envious of Swifts easy style and effortless grasp of music...but its so cool to get this kind of feedback. Thanks
Awesome job, Jon, Mike, Cobie, Jim and whoever helped with this awesome cover. it has alot of character and doesnt try to create something that it isn't. You say you did it for fun and it really translates well.
if you have the .mp3 id love to use it for a school project (photography RE: environmental deteriation around us it is a small photo montage) maybe if it fits you could email it? you will be given credit.
I replied yesterday but it seems to have disappeared....Thanks for your comments. Its nice that you would consider the clip so thoughtfully. I would be really happy for you to use it in your project..although Jon Swift should be credited with writing it. I think you can download the Mp3 straight from utube but you have any problems PM me and I'll email it.
amazing song mate, good job and keep it going!

Like you got friends C
Theres a hammer on and off on the second Am7
The rest is just working out a picking framework and messing with it a bit.
Good luck and thanks for the comment : )

Like you got friends C
Theres a hammer on and off on the second Am7
