[Fighting4Freedom2012]

@anthonydisney Really, you HATE Billy Joel? Hate? That's just wrong.  I can see not liking his music, but hate?

[MountainDipper]

John is a real estate Novelist? Bill tells me different.

[ChrisShaski]

he definitley skipped around in the verses but hes so fuckin good he can get away with it

[Aaro4LM]

Is there a song he can't play and sing?

[jbroome2336]

Did the cameraman have Parkinson's?

[BornQueen]

@jbroome2336

I love when someone makes singing look so easy and natural. True talent.

[Irilae]

Everything he sings/plays sounds amazing. I could listen to his voice all day...

[1973cableguy]

[theshingles100]

[algoAzrael]

[videeeoooguy1234]

Something about him singing this song makes it like 10x more badass!! hahaha

[CH3CKBANGdub]

Aaron Lewis is the most talented man on the face of earth.

[nelso8806]

Holy fuck thats awesome...

[neubarth1]

well yes he did mess up little bit but you got to remember hes just pulling them songs out and just playing them so give him a break most people could never do that!

[simplemen55]

the new cash

[Tyler95J]

SOMEONE PLEASE FIND ME SOME TABS FOR THE WAY HE PLAYS IT?

[SchecterManiac]

But it's sad and it's sweet and I knew it complete when I wore a younger man's clothes hahaha OK I'm a pervert...

[noname8339]

he does this song so well that u don't mind his misplacement of the lyrics in verse 2.

[dcyucuas]

messed up the lyrics......and still perfected it! :D

[defries73]

That voice cuts like a knife straight to the heart. Chilling.

[MistaEG33]

not only is his voice powerful, his voice also gives me the chills.

[ultraclassic1987]

how fuckin cool is this!!!!!

[fuckcalgarysucks]

not really a piano man if you cant play a piano

[BornQueen]

@fuckcalgarysucks

Although he CAN play the piano, not only was he just paying homage to a great song (not being literal), but he was doing it during an acoustic show, just having guitars.

[markssite]

@BornQueen he should have sang guitar man instead

[arthurtrahans]

@fuckcalgarysucks

[themattcoco]

one of my favorite artists covering another one of my favorite artists and performing the song extraordinarily. you couldn't ask for much more.

[Sombradelbosque]

he easly can do it blues version of this song and will song great

[mrbaldeezy]

WOW! Just shows his range, man! Awesome! Love the song too!

[SixStringIcon]

OMG - Aaron has taken one of my favorite all time songs and brought it to the acoustic and performed it flawlessly. I used to THINK Aaron was one of the best all around musicians of this generation....But now I KNOW he is.........

[mrstylerfunair]

this song reminds me of my dad. i love finding covers of music that he listens to . just because its newer, and its just cool.

[musicking1984]

Aaron lewis is a talented musician Excellent Cover

[richeee2000]

this is the way it should have always sounded

[icrusifynigs4thewin]

aaron lewis is the man when he does covers he does it just as good if not better than the original and when he writes his own music its amazing he truly has mastered the art of singing and playing the acoustic

[MrJclark111]

NICE RENDITION!!!!!!!!!! AWESOME VOCALS!!!!!!!

[Teapartyla]

Billy Joel would be like...Damn!!!

[argueta921]

[MRMED123]

THERE ARE NO WORDS..............

[salemboicot]

[SuperVettegirl]

he has a wonderful voice and can sing just about anything.

[blues2oo]

He really has mastered the art of cover great songs.

[Teapartyla]

Awesome

[myerselectric79]

Probably the only way I would listen to this song is Aaron singing it! Sounds a lot better with his vocals!

[welderman27]

it's weird when he talks it hard to understand him but when he sings he's very clear

[RcUniverseGuy]

[erestor629]

[L4D2acidiccharger]

I love this song, I love how he did it, but in my opinion, Piano > Guitar for this song ANYDAY!

[ltylcz]

"I want to stick my dick in it. I want it to stick it's dick in me." - Beerfest

[jdean750]

[ArmystrongHOOAH1]

You gotta listen to some more of his cover's, I stand by this statement Aaron Lewis is the best vocalist of our time by far, he does so many cover's, it show's his ability to sing and mix it up.

[stewboy5]

[itayaya21]

[waldo9254]

Amazing. He should put out a studio version of this. Great take on one of my fav songs of all time.

[DonCheechio]

[redleg15]

@stuckie2003

Aaron has not released a solo/acoustic album..... but eventually maybe?

[MagnanimityXII]

@redleg15 I saw him this last weekend and he sang 3 songs off his new solo album! they sounded pretty good .. but he didn't say when he'd be releasing the album!! good news huh :D

[rynelson85]

just amazing. sooo much talent!

[Lazyskins82]

he's probably my fav singer of all time

[MagnanimityXII]

@Lazyskins82 indeed! my favourite rock/metal vocalist

[Wolfe1661]

I say Hotdamn, What a rush!! Oh, and screw wryan1995 Douche

[kmanrocks87]

anyone that can make billy joel sound like this....... incredible

[daniel95roberts]

wow this is so good makes the original sound shit

[leaman73]

Find something to do with your time...calling out people on this type of forum is flat juvenile..Aaron Lewis is one of our greatest musicians and lead singers..If you really feel the need to criticize then take a look in the mirror and ask yourself what the hell am I good at..because you may be surprised to find out that...it"s nothing..then that would explain your comments

[thedirtysanchez21]

@wryan1995 good job man. i salute you brother

[xXdEaThSeQuEnCeXx]

@wryan1995 oh im sorry i think you misread i said "fantasy's". I never agreed with you

[thedirtysanchez21]

@xXdEaThSeQuEnCeXx you just did faggot

[xXdEaThSeQuEnCeXx]

@wryan1995 *sigh* wow you just have to have the last say don't you? alright.....i cave....you win.....ill let you have your gay fantasys about Lewis and black men while i get on with my life. bye bye now......

[thedirtysanchez21]

@xXdEaThSeQuEnCeXx you didnt know aaron lewis has sex with black men??? what kind of staind fan are you ?????

[sexykitten0627]

This is great. I like how he cut the song off at the end. lol.

[xXdEaThSeQuEnCeXx]

@wryan1995 if it was in the new york times then why didnt you bring that up earlier? cuz it most likely aint. your only proving my point so stfu and again get a life.

[Ynico666]

Didn't knew i had this many goosebumps.. awesome

[xXdEaThSeQuEnCeXx]

@wryan1995 No. dipshit. i was talking about the fact ur just making shit up about Lewis and u, like I thought, dont have any conceivable evidence to support ur insult. the only reason ur here is to spew hateful, deragatory shit because you apparantly dont have anything else better to do with your life. Dumbass

[iamnotamaniamcantona]

@wryan1995  Aaron is married and has kids you dumb shit.stop making up stuf good man..

[xXdEaThSeQuEnCeXx]

@iamnotamaniamcantona ignore that douche bag and enjoy the music he cant appreciate :)

[thedirtysanchez21]

@xXdEaThSeQuEnCeXx you calling me and my brother lejuan douchebags????

[xXdEaThSeQuEnCeXx]

@thedirtysanchez21 if thats your real profile picture.....than yes im calling you a douche bag lol

[JMccall1991]

impressive. never heard a guitar piano man. awesome

[xXdEaThSeQuEnCeXx]

@wryan1995 lol whtever dude its pretty apparant your no longer taking this seriously

[xXdEaThSeQuEnCeXx]

@wryan1995 and weres your proof. your SSOOOOOO convinced he's gay you haven't even mentioned a single shred of evidence. What makes you think he's gay, homophobe?

[gennyv0302]

AARON FUCKING LEWIS! I LOVE YOU DUDE!

[xXdEaThSeQuEnCeXx]

@wryan1995 well sense Aaron Lewis has a daughter you've just made yourself look like a complete ass. have a nice day.

[xXdEaThSeQuEnCeXx]

@wryan1995 what are you trying to accomplish by talking shit? Seriously. I'd like to know. What's your reasoning?

[Jeffrey19797]

too bad he can't write songs as good as the ones he's covering. It's been awhile what a joke of a song. post-grunge is so awful.

[ringgiant1]

@Jeffrey19797

too bad you can't get becks penis out of your mouth. With a name like Jeffrey you must be a fan.

[cristilc1]

Wow awesome =0)

[EzVanHalen]

God damn, his voice is like a punch in the face!

[drizzin]

yeah i agree walnut, kind of like Jack White's cover of Jolene, Its a great cover and he just wants to share the song with others.

[walnut778]

i don't think he was trying to say hey " I am better than billy joel singing" .. he is simply paying homage to a great song and sharing his love for it with fans ..perhaps that have never heard it before .why is it that when artists do a version or a remake of a classic song that people think they are trying to " make it better" or something ridiculous ??

[SGCRCT]

it's alright but he ain't Billy Joel

[kmbllj]

I've been sitting here watching one cooool Aaron Lewis video after another (too damn hot to go outside) and would love to see him release an acoustic CD. I would definately buy it!

[manfredicomposer]

I like this.

[jeg227]

@wryan1995

Is that why you're watching this video? Because you're a queer too? Yeah. Yeah it is.

[snakeriverking]

Aaron Lewis by far has the most powerful voice ever. He is a Legend in Rock!

[TravisKostello]

everything aaron lewis does is terrible

[jeg227]

@TravisKostello

Ahahahahaha! You're a terrible critic! Go shoot yourself. Fag.

[lotsapasta13]

Oh the irony...

[RYNOAFL29]

OMFG 1st class!!!

[vincewalthers]

[defries73]

Sends chills down my spine everytime I hear him sing this song.. Awesome, awesome, awesome

[egiagustina]

[GeneralGonzo15]

[kyliejean228]
