Dustin Kensrue - Round Here (Counting Crows)

[LordSharpe]

This was so ridiculously good. My favourite song and you did it proud.

[jakej654]

this is still the best cover ever. kevin i wish i was you

[fezzynips]

@jakej654 Hahahaha!! That made me laugh his name's Dustin Kensrue dude

[tiagommourao]

Great cover. Very good

[bradley7387]

Love the respectful silence of the audience for once, and they know when to woo occasionally ;D

[Kr33mpuff]

Wish this was louder =/

[NowORneveratall]

there goes my hero!! :D

[PsYcHoReHaB]

Dear DK,

can I borrow your voice for like a year? It would perfect my senior year and leave an amazing memento

[ConnorShawMusic]

great cover

[Ising4u93]

only cover i've ever seen that has stuck to the original melody, you've got a sick voice dude.

[Hearttt440]

i come back to this video every now and then, and it blows me away every time. dustin kensrue is incredible

[G1stang]

nice... one of the best flow controled songs on here... awesome job man

[TheRealJoshly]

great video!

[sophos34]

literally the most beautiful thing ive heard

[brooks450]

0 thumbs down :)

[AwVer8STi]

So much passion, love it.

[AwVer8STi]

This is the most incredible thing I've ever heard.

[JackDog131]

This complete passion.

[mattdolan]

listen to this almost everyday

[TimPhilly317]

I'm being completely sincere and genuine when I say this, when I first heard Dustin played this in 2007...it helped me change my life. It opened me up, as odd as that may sound. This song moves me so much. Thrice4Life.

[sophos34]

Fantastic cover. One of my favorite vocalists of all time.

[kemichels]

Haha! I think you probably do.... I tend to move around a lot while I listen to music, hence the shakey-ness.

[dpemmons]

kemichels - we need to get you some video stabilization software. Luckily I think I know somebody who works on that kind of stuff...

[christmyer23]

better then the original

[lowcutrock]

This is simply an awesome cover!

[juslaughitoff]

chills every time

[MrAwesomeBrett]

This gives me chills...it's sooo good....I love watching musicians when they really get into what they are playing...and he is really into what he is doing, which is awesome

[TheAtriumProductions]

Dustin...is....amazing. Great cover.

[Perri686]

I am so in love with him! That was amazing! Gaaaah. I get to see Thrice in one weeek! =D xx

[slightlyamplified]

3:26

[Zatyr]

carkegaard: Pehaps its because its kinda hard to make and already perfect song better. =)

[Broach1988]

amazing job

[bdanahy319]

okay, but he still did a great job doing it, if it was original or not.

[rhetttr0]

epic cover

[MrAndrewVideo]

awwh LOL @ 3:17 dustin runs into the mic!! he's so into this song its awesome! love it!

[schtegg88]

major lol at 2:21 any1 else laugh at that WOOOO!!???

[DAVEo591]

LMAO! YES

[Broach1988]

@schtegg88 haha that shits fuckin hilarious!!

[carkegaard]

I don't get it, why does covering an artist make you a musical genius? There's no difference between this and the acoustic "Round Here" on Counting Crows album Across a Wire. Except for all the screaming.

[ThriceThriceThrice3]

Yeah youre right, theres no difference..except the fact its a DIFFERENT ARTIST covering the song and doing their take on it. Thats the point of a COVER. Then youll respond and back peddle and say "Well why does that make him a musical genius?" Its because the way he takes an already established great song and keeps it great in his own way of doing it. Oh and if you think THATS screaming...i'll just say 'lol'

[carkegaard]

but you missed the part about how there is no difference, there is no different "take". This isn't "his own way of doing it". He's just performing a less well known version of an Acoustic performance by Counting Crows. Even the ending is word for word. I'm not saying the guy isn't talented, I'm just saying this isn't original, he didn't change anything.

[carkegaard]

just search ROUND HERE ACOUSTIC on youtube, there's no difference. This isn't a new version, it's actually about 10 years old.

[CoheedHero]

in my opinion he's a musical genius because of his work with Thrice and it's amazing to hear somebody I idolize sing a song by someone else i idolize.

I agree with you that it's not different at all, except that it's Dustin. This cover doesn't make him a musical genius, as good as it is.

[linedpaper92]

I love his voice! I had 12 Mountain Dew Game Fuels today, and listening to his voice actually makes me calm and extremely mellow

[spartan0541]

i wonder what he pitures when his yes are closed. this guy is a pure musical genis

[thepit805]

He pictures above him-2 small gloved hands holding a red and white striped carnival popcorn bag. All the while popcorn descends upon him as juju bees fly in and around the room. This is true.

[Jediairmech]

very nice!

[aubreywithoutYou]

This is awesome

[cllsom29945]

my favorite cover...just as good as the original

[thepit805]

good song, but dustin makes it awesome

[mattdolan]

@cllsom29945 better...

[bigtbake61]

THis is pretty great

[JakeMachado]

At 3:17 he walks right into the mic, shows how into his music he is when he's playing.

[pianofromapond]

Got shivers around the 3-minute mark.

So damn good.

[MCRZGZ]

Every Night I thank God for Dustin Kensrue

[aoskilanec]

No I live in Southern Illinois and we had that awful ice storm and there was no way for me to get out. I'm pretty disappointed about it, really hoping that they don't skip the midwest on warped tour but I would have rather seen this, It looked epic.

[VoyageToVenus]

What kind of camera did you capture this with? I was at the Pontiac show and have some footage, but the audio quality isn't as good as yours. Unfortunately, Dustin was sick, but he still sounded great!

[kemichels]

I actually just have a Sony DSC-P100. It's about 4 years old, but I've held onto it because it has such a great audio capture in it's video mode. Even for extremely loud shows, it doesn't get all bass-y and everything. I heard about Dustin being sick...that kinda sucks, but I'm glad he still sounded awesome!

[kemichels]

Which reminds me, I still need to upload more videos...I still have like 6 more.

[gsneverknowsbest]

Amazing song. Amazing cover. Done by one hell of an amazing artist.

[helixhalo]

Haha Nashville is going to go WILD at the city's mention thanks to the Crows. God, I love living in Nashville sometimes. It's kind of weird how Dustin lives in CA yet has more of Nashville-type sound with Please Come Home than the majority of musicians that actually LIVE here.

[kemichels]

I watch this daily. Multiple times. It makes me feel good about life.

[aoskilanec]

Ditto. I've got it saved on my bookmarks and i've been showing it to several people.

[aoskilanec]

Incredible. I really hope i can find some tickets for the show on the 31st cause i'm driving over 400 miles for it without tickets.

[keybldemaster]

preorder em dude. Where I went (Pittsburgh, PA) It was sold out. Get advanced to be safe.

[aoskilanec]

IT is sold out. im hoping to scalp some or get on the guest list.

[kemichels]

did you ever make it man?

[jmh886]

best version ive ever heard of this song...so mad this tour is not coming anywhere near maryland

[pianofromapond]

So good.

[forgivedurdenn]

Awesome cover. The ending is so epic.

[amviggi]

yeah i was next to mae. that asshole didnt see my gum i threw to him. that kinda pissed me off

[feelslikemae]

I was definitely there!!! i was actually only a couple people over!! haha

[kemichels]

haha, i totally saw you :)

[dmisic43]

it was super, wouldn't have missed this

[kemichels]

I know...so amazing. I'll be uppin practically his whole set later.

[iEpik]

I was there. It was awesome!
