  • I JUST LOVE IT PLEASE TELL ME THAT YOU CAN GIVE ME YOUR CHORDS PLEASE!

  • @Contenidoekstra

    Hi Contenidoekstra. The chords I used are simple

    verse C G Am7 F C G Am7 (x2)

    stars will make you feel F G

    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 : )

  • Wow, finally a good song, that actually has no dislikes (and no stupid comments about the dislike bar)!!!

  • @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!

  • Awesome :)

  • @AlphaBravo88888

    Heya thanks for leaving the comment! Soz havent been around for a while. Glad you enjoyed the cover and hope your week kicks arse!

    Mikey

  • Dude your awsome, a vid would be great don't worry about doing it asap I'm still at school so hobbies get put aside. Thanks a lot

  • 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

  • @stunning257

    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.

    Cheers

    M

  • Thanks man your the best

  • 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

  • LOL did she just bring you a corona like in the add? HAHA thats gold if she did mate, thats bloody gold.

    as for the performance, love it, keep up the good work.

    cheers

  • good on ya Blitzwolf....thanks for commenting! didnt even think about my girl bringing a beer lol..guess it is kinda in theme!!

  • you dont generaly hear guitar this good. There seems to be a mainstream culture of just randomly hitting strings. This is beautiful

  • 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 : )

  • Great audio/video combination!

  • Thanks IE! Could have done with your guitaring though!!

  • I like it because you're wearing an All Blacks hat.

    Haha, nah bro, great cover, sounds great.

  • Thanks mate....go the all blacks!!

  • I'm Very Impressed with this Song,good work too you and your friends,Deffinetly deserves more than 5 stars :)

  • Thanks Poisonfibre...: ) have a great day

  • Nice work!

  • LOVE IT :)

  • my favourite song

  • 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.

    Mikey

  • Mate, I think this is the first time I've ever commented on a video in two years.

    This song hasn't stopped playing for two day's now at my PC hehe.

    Top work mate, brilliant voice. Keep it up

    That is all.

  • 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

  • Beautiful, man

  • Cheers Dude and thanks for leaving a note. Have an awesome day!

  • I LOVE IT.

  • Thanks : ) Hope your day today is great!

  • A bsolutely brilliant!!. Greetings from Miami.

  • Thanks Emelio! I loved your film "The Roll". Cheers from Darwin Australia.

  • Everyone seems to watch this on a Wednesday lol!! Do they run the Corona ad on Wed nights? Thanks all for checking in..xx

  • very nice video. I can't say that I have heard the song but I sure like your version...and a beer girl too - you must be living right.

  • Sweetheart

    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.

    Thank you for allowing me to be a part of it.

    xox

  • good girl. now tell me how clever I am (have left the money in an envelope in the usual place) xx

  • Bwahahahahaha...that's what the green stuff is?

  • Alex....thanks for checking out the clip. Its nice to meet you and thank you for your comments. Best wishes to Germany from Australia.

    Mikey

  • aw r u australian too? wre bouts u from? i love ur cover by the way. its the best cover ive everheard from anyone

  • 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

  • ow really? wow thats really hot, in queensland its only in the high 20's, haha and i thort that was hot but 36. Gotta love the barra :D

  • this is probably the best cover of this song i have heard.

    one of the best covers of any songs i have heard.

    maybe better than the original.

    makes me want to sit on a beach.

    great job man.

    peace

  • 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

    Mikey

  • 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.

    Again, great job.

  • Hi Henry

    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.

    Cheers

    Mikey

  • yeha no worries. i'll use accredit him, but you as a cover artist. thanks alot.

  • hey mate thank you very much :) mate your cover is awsome you have realy nice vocals fits with your guitar playing realy well 5 *

  • awesome, nice one...

    Any chance of a TAB?

  • Heya Lachc6

    Thanks so much for checking out the vid and your comment. My guitaring is very simple and probably suitable for a beginner. The chords are just

    verse C G Am7 F C G Am7 (x2)

    stars will make you feel F G

    Like you got friends C

    Theres a hammer on and off on the second Am7

    The hard part is the picking but I'll put up a small vid to show how to do that...just subscribe and youll get notified when I upload it.

    Cheers

    Mikey
