FinnDorian, don't listen to any of these people (and i'm sure it doesn't bother you) who are trying to say you 'butchered' this song. I love the way you played and sang it, it was so soulful and completely organic. Obviously your a great guitar player and weren't playing a "haphazard and inconsistent picking pattern". Your a great musician, this was a great cover, everybody is a turd, keep making music.

Never sing this song again. I don't even care how many people get pissed off because I'm saying this right now, but seriously: never play this song again. You took a beautiful folk song and ruined it.
I like your voice, but you do exactly the same as TTMOE, but then worse. You can do much better i think, just by yourself and your own songs.. I think you can totally create your unique style..
okay so it wasnt great but am i the only one that pictured an older bob dylan trying to cover tallest man on earth? cause that is seriously what is sounded like.. weird but cool to hear
It is quite the setup so I can see why you would feel pressure getting you frustrated.
It's clear to me that you love the song and are giving it your best and for a first take this is absolutely splendid. But when you go to all the trouble of setting up the gear, why don't you make sure the guitar is in perfect tune? That song "Dimages" doesn't appear in Related videos so I guess more of us will have to go there from this one so that it will. Keep up the fine playing!
@FredVanterra I think he likes to flame people... But anyway... I'm open for every kind of constructive criticism... It will not stop me from making music as music is my passion...
@FinnDorian I didn't ask you to stop making music. But you totally butchered this fine song. You did not actually learn how to play the guitar part, you just kind of pieced some rough chords together and your right hand is playing some haphazard and inconsistent picking pattern. And the lyrics are often incorrect. Nice song choice though. Just put some more work into it. Try to actually learn the song though, next time
@Gobstopper221 well, it's a hard song and I did my best. thanks for your suggestions, that's something I can work with... I missed to play some variations, but the chords are right as far as I can tell... I have some problems with the recording situation... I'm getting frustrated too fast and that's why I mostly chose to use the first take, which isn't perfect, as you see here...
@ishter87ar Haha. Are you serious? You are going to compare Hendrix covering Dylan to this guy covering Tallest Man on Earth? Hendrix was a brilliant guitarist. This guy is obviously a beginner at the guitar. You're ridiculous.
@Gobstopper221 I don't know what your knowledge of guitar is, but this guy is not a beginner at guitar. Don't say things like that if you don't know anything about it.
@vdVeldtLogoDesign I'm a guitarist, so I have plenty of knowledge when it comes to music and guitar playing. This guy is very much a beginner. His left hand is playing very simple open chords. With his right hand he's trying to pick out an alternate bass line with his thumb and the chord shapes with his other fingers, but the finger picking sounds awful because there is absolutely no consistency or study rhythm. His guitar playing suggests to me that he is a beginner

@Jagarkar3 Nice to know that you're still here :) I had a lot to do the last months, this video was a spontaneous decision, I felt like I need to do it now, athough I was appointed at a party :) mhh I need to do more recordings... I have a lot of music, even selfwritten songs... I guess, I have a "recording-fear" ;)

@Gobstopper221
where's your video? you're a hater and contribute nothing to society.
have you heard All Along The Watchtower by Dylan? Would you say Hendrix "butchered" it? It's a cover.
PS- Kill yourself, dude.
