  • Beautiful! Very nice! Congratulations for the video! I love this song!

  • Goosebumps from the first few notes from your mouth Peter, outstanding cover of this magnificent song - one of my favorites by Sir Elton John. I like the introduction you delivered and again the emotions you deliver. I'm grateful for stopping by and your lovely share of this song. Mark

  • we have a 432htz.

  • great!

  • Thumbs up for the lil girl in the back ground GREAT SONG

  • Hi Peter. You sing this well and this mic suits you better.

    This song is one of my all time favourites because when I was 18 years of age (with my new Husband - as was), I moved to South Africa (for 4 years in all). It was a little too young to leave a large family and move to a totally new culture. I was dreadfully home sick. Of course now I appreciate that a good thing to expand one's world and thinking. Thanks for sharing and ~God bless~

  • Great song.

  • Sounds terrific man, great job.

    Are you running your Dean Markley pickup through the ART then into the interface?

    I have been thinking of buying a DM pickup rather than using a SM57mic to pickup the guitar.

    Great mix on the vox, keep it up bro!!!!

  • Love it man alot of emotion in yourself and i love the way you feel the song but 1 quick question you play right handed or left i seen BOTH  lol and im freakin out..

  • You seem like a really nice guy.

  • pretty cool cover...sounds more like Fuel version.settle down just a bit in pots keep using your normal smooth voice, practice control( gonna give you 5 anyway cuz i can't sing a lick.) advice.. stay within the limits of your voice..listen back at 2:05, 3:06,4:10...PEACE man, look forward to your next endeavor....Dennis.

  • You sound a bit like you don't have total control of your voice. Try working on that bro. But I like that you obviously sing with passion. Good job.

  • Absolutely Awesome. Thank you for the friend invite. I subscribed hope you will return the favor.Keep up the great work you do.

  • that girl behind lol so cute and you were cool with her

  • You have one of the most soothing speaking voices I've ever heard. And your singing is filled with great emotion, it's like watching the waves swell on the ocean and being captivated by them.

  • Love it man, five star's!!!

  • you are freakin amazin

  • Thanks for the backstory on this song.

    I had never heard that,

    though I loved the song from the first time I heard it.

    5 stars for this gritty, passionate cover!

  • nice voice, well, no wait not well, very well singing.

  • Great job. You have a great speaking voice as well as the singing. I would listen to books on tape if they had a smooth voice as you do. Anyway, 5 stars.

    rudi

  • Nice intro and background , not too amazed by daddy is she? I like the raw voice simple guitar and emotions in your presentation and hey dude age is a good thing. Just ask me.teehee

  • your voice is really good.

  • Nice work, sounding sweet! Personally, I like the kid drifting through the background, makes it more personal, "Oh, it's just Dad singing again, no big whoop." :-)

  • Great job!!! The girl on the background is cute!!!

    Is this your girl??

    Best wishes!!

  • awesome I almost cried

  • good

  • Great job

  • And its my name... Great job!!!!

  • I liked the vocals.

  • Hi ! Nice cover. I didn't skipped to the beginning of the song, I wanted to know what you were telling ! like for "Redemption song", 5* ! I like your versions cause you play those songs like you feel them. One thing that had stonished me is that in this vid., you're lefty, I suppose that it comes from your webcam, cause it happened to me, when I've changed some "things" in my webcam, & in the following videos, I was lefty too. Well done, my friend. Keep on the good job ! BYE !

  • Don't force your voice. Stop screaming...relax. Your sound system is great, however, perfect your stuff first... as you're off at...ie: 2:19, 3:04, 3:17. Slow down, relax( facial expressions also) and your voice will sound sexy. Now, try again, (without distractions - children walking in the room). Enjoy singing the song for yourself...not us. Don't give up.

  • did you reverse this vid? cause i thought you were a righty

  • yeah, the video is actually reversed (wasn't on purpose - one of the first vids I shot and didn't realize it).

  • for all the people sayin hes pushin his voice too hard, i dont think he is, hes just adding his own flair to it.

  • i agree 100% outragousthoughts is awesome great voice i really hope you get signed good luck

  • awesome this is my favorite song from Elton John im always singing this for karaoke and just singing around friends and family as we in hawaii like to call it Kanikapila...love your vocals its hella wicked...keep on singing....

  • brilliant, Hope you go Far

  • Excellent, what microphone was used ???????

    Very good

  • good job it was brilliant

  • I like it!

  • Man i like your voive much more and more for ervery video i have seen of you

    You have an very cool voive and you hae a lot of talent 5*

    I hope you make more songs like this ^^

  • great husky voice XD

  • I love the feel of this - it's so this century!! The other covers fit in to their respective times - and I think this fits our time :-)

  • AAa this is one of my favs...))))

    and you performed brilliantly!!!!!!

    luv u)))

  • dude, that's a fat daddy mic set up, wow. I kinda dig the way you grind out your voice bro. Sounds almost STPish.

  • i love this song.

    and i guess you performed pretty well.

    but you push it alil bit too hard. but i think you already get that. lol

    i know you're trying to do this cover with your own style, but try to maintain the melody of song as well.

    originality is good but vocals are important as well :)

    nevertheless, it was good.

    well done. and thankyou so much for alil bit scoop detail about the song.

    such interesting fact! :D

  • I agree with some of the posts, you push your voice too far at certain moments. Also, try to keep it a bit more melodic.

    Nevertheless, I think you have talent!

  • that is very good peter keep up the cover vids

  • Elton and Bernie would be proud! However, you do push your vocals a little too much at times..........try not to strain your voice so much next time. BTW, is that your daughter in the background? Keep up the good work!

  • Pretty good ! How much is your microphone ? I think it must be very expensive !

  • beautiful version of an awesome song

  • All ways liked this song,

    Love your version,

    Thanks for info explaining the meaning of song

  • rock n roll man..

  • its really good man! keep up the good work

  • was really pitchy in some parts, and your trying to ring out some of the lyrics way to much. There are parts were it sounds nice and then you drag it WAY to long. But I liked your cover none the less. Needs improvement.

  • Nice job. I like your style. I think you are pushing your vocals alittle too hard, sound abit strained to me. I have subscribed. Keep up the fine work. Peace out

  • dude fucking amazing and soft sound!!!!

  • gr8 man gr8 5/5 stars

  • What a pleasant suprise! Very good ! You made it your song! I did skip ahead to your performance twice! saved to my "acoustic performers" folder!

  • my tip to u is to just explain things in the info

  • gr8 stuff nice

  • you bring your heart and use this for play....very compliment...in italian sad "ce metti core, te fa onore"...for to listen one of my song you must write Luciano Ligabue on youtube...send me a mail after, i want you comment...hi was a pleassur listen your beutiful song

  • good work dude. really good. you have it.!

    check out glen philips songs here. i think you would enjoy covering them.

  • hey man you did amazing. great job my friend:)

  • im impressed you sung this song so well ! im faving this one ! hats off to you thanx a mill for this brilliant cover / rox

  • Olá Daniel, gostei do seu som, da versão que você deu a música! A sua voz também é bem legal! É isso mesmo, siga em frente! Parabéns

  • NICE!

  • Awesome job. Some of those old school EJ songs are so amazing, loved hearing the story behind it as well. I'm a huge fan of goodbye yellow brick road & always wondered what the backstory is on that one. Bernie taubin is such an amazing lyricist. Anyway great job, you've got a very cool voice!

  • i like your voice

  • even though i am not really an elton john fan nor do i often listen to his music, i thought your cover of this song is pretty cool but i guess since i have not heard the elton john version before or the original version i probably have no right to compliment or criticize.

  • Its great man!! keep moving forward and thank you!

  • wow man your rely good im impressed your really an insparation and you should keep going and you will succeed in life

  • ok friend , i like it, congratulations

  • Oh wow!! Really nice cover!!

  • Pretty good man, you got ranchy on some parts with your voice but good singin'. deff real diffrent from EJ's first recording. Nice Pete.

  • hey buddie thanks for the message, just picked it up. what set-up is that mic etc. like your voice my friend. its diff i enjoyed this peformance as you come across as a nice guy thought id sub.. 5stars from me.. ps: love the choice of song. great stuff keep rocking..

    peace tony..

  • Just sing, you talk to much ! lol

  • cool

  • Nice man! Though I've not yet heard this song coz I'm no Elton John's fan but you did it nice! 5 stars for you! FYI the only song I've heard from EJ is Skyline Pigeon. If you can do a cover of this song, much better. Have a good day man!

  • Well i have to say i'm no fan of Elton John but u created it very well!

    The sound quality for the environment u are in is also very good!

    5/5

  • 5 stars

  • its been a long time since i have heard this song, but you did a great job covering it!

  • Not my style man... it's probably pretty good to the trained ear but I don't like this kind of music

  • that was great. to be honest i realy didnt expect that voice to come from you, and i thought it was awsome. keep it up man, you'll go far.

  • Yea Great Song ya did it justice.. came out great !!! can't wait to hear more

  • pretty sweet man

    i think i'd like artists like elton john more if they just wrote the songs and had someone else preform and record them.

  • This sounds almost exactly like the cover of this song that Fuel did. The guitar tune and everything. Look it up.

  • A few rough edges maybe, but not too bad. I love the tone of your guitar, btw. Nice choice!

  • Oh wow!!  Really nice cover!! I could listen to this all day! Thanks for the invite to your channel! Loved it : )

  • Another great cover by Peter!

  • Good Cover, nice playing...your voice is good with the raspy effect, but it sounds a little forced....maybe if you found your own voice,.....raspy has now become too common...........honestly!

  • Awesome voice, nice guitar playing aswell, keep up the good work mate

  • Hey thanks for sharing this vid, you sound pretty awesome. I like how you put your own style into it. :]

  • Not bad, considering that almost any Elton John song is very dynamic in range. My only advice to you is to ease up on the vocals, you need to relax more, your trying to force some of the notes out and it doesn't sound natural. Other than that it's a good performance.

  • Here's the honest review you asked for: The vocals are kinda rough man. I can tell you're straining. I'm not sure why. It could be that you're at the limits of your chest voice, so you might want to roll over to head voice in some places. You also might be trying to force that raspy sound you're using, which isn't in everyone's voice. I think you're definitely singing louder than you need to be. Try backing off a little bit and not clenching your throat so much, if that makes sense.

  • What???? are you nuts? Daniel is one of the greatest slow songs of all time. Any some moron seems to agree with you. I am not amazed you got a thumbs up, most idiots these days are so brainwashed all they listen to is beyonce, kanye 'give it a rest' west, and Pink. get a clue people.

    Singer, you sing well except you try too hard. Tone it down, relax and you will be awesome. Good Luck. I will subscribe.

  • Great job.  5 stars!

  • I really like the voive man!! good job on this one ; )

  • armsdealer06 he don't know what the hell he is talking about .Great song, and sung very good.Keep it up

  • good job but you need to try rock songs

  • very good!

    =)

  • you have a good voice! good job :D

  • Good job mate!

  • Sounds really nice! I like it!

  • You're voice is good man, but your recording isn't so good. Need to drop a lot of the bass out, esp on the guitar. Good vocal performance though - very much a classic rock sound to your voice which i really like in this song! It reminds me a lot of the cover by the Foo Fighters (at least I think it was them...). Keep it up, and let me know when you do more Elton! Good luck.

  • First off, you should have went with Benny and the Jets. Daniel is the worst song ever written. Secondly, it doesn't fit your voice range or style. I believe you have talent, so instead of a low rating I will not rate it at all. Good luck.

  • Great Job Man...thanks for the intro... A million stars

    Peace,

    Yvonne and Bob

  • Hey man,great job on this song!!!! You have a great rock voice!

  • Good sound, Nice mike, 3 out of 5 stars. I miss the piano but unique interpitation.

  • Great job Peter! I like the "rocked out" version that others have alluded to. And yes, I hear a little Bon Jovi and Springsteen in your voice. Covering a song in your own style is always good. It's who you are. Keep up the good work. - Don

  • Not a bad cover.

    Yes try a more of a rock song.

  • well the only cover i've ever liked is johnny cashes interpretation of trent reznors ''hurt'' so perhaps my opinion shouldn't matter, but i didn't like it. i like the song but i think you sound too similar to bruce springstein.

  • Your verison is great and your voice sounds a little like Mr. Bonjovi. Hey, I see your little doll walking in the background, I bet she likes your guitar playing too. Take Care!

  • Yeah not bat at all. Your only problem is that this is one of my all time favorites. ;-)

  • cool cover, i like the heavier influence you've added, though i do think you sound like you're straining your voice a little, but overall i enjoyed it :D

  • very nice dude

  • You are very good! Anyway it seems to me that your voice is more suitable for rock songs rather than quiet songs such as "Daniel". Try with "Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting" :)

  • Great Job!! But in my opinion this song deserves a lighter touch... it feels a bit heavy. But still awesome!

  • i love this song

  • This is awesome ! You have so much talent !

  • Wow, Very nice work!!!

    *****

    Elton John is my favourite singer and you made great cover !!!

  • cool cover dude

  • This is a pretty good cover.

  • woow ! just Wow ! !

  • hey peter, very nice guitar play!

    pretty good cover, but you need to work on you voice, its kinda to harsh, but you've got potential for something great! keep on the good work :)

    and cut down the intro, it really is kinda to long :)

  • wow,  very impressive! i love elton john, and you definitely did him justice, man.

  • In my humble opinion and for my taste, this deserves a 4 star.

    It is general ok, I really didn't like the long verbal introduction. Not even EJ use that introductions. CUT IT! LOL =) just kidding.

    This is your interpretation/variation with your emotions, and as a suggestion, you can put more attention and observe a little further in the subtle details of the Elton's pronunciation, specially in the "word endings" and variations in the middle of the words. Write 'em down, his are richer.

  • Good cover!

  • Peter, I really enjoyed it! Very heart felt and warm...I also like that you are left handed like me:)

  • This is really good mate ! (:

  • I just tried to comment on your wall but it wouldn't work- kept refreshing the page :S

    but of course i can =]

    i'm watching a few of your vids now and you got yourself a real good voice =]

    great work

  • really good man great voice, suscribing .... lol ur little girl walked in the background :D

  • wow he plays left handed to. i can barely hold a guitar let alone play with both hands. =)

  • i like this too :)

  • ehh. it's better than ur avalanche cover.

  • great job man!
