"Shooting Star," by Bad Company

[Joleen92682]

you shold be on americens got talent

[5stringkeith]

Real nice. That Martin is killer-sounds great...and so do you. 5 here.....

[dsmalf]

good stuff bro

[Trapar137]

No disrespect intended to John Valley, but Paul Rogers say's this song is mostly about Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin. It can't be about Jimi alone as his mother died when he was a child. I imagine a good part of it is about Paul himself and stardom.

[GuardianGuitar222]

Nice man im learning this at the moment Great cover And song

[boogieman221thx]

[xPhantomAngelx]

[funnyface1959]

[MrJoshCupcakes]

My grandmother Judy loved this song. She just passed away this mourning unfortunatly.And she was a shooting star.Long live the scarvelli family.

[remrafsral]

I think you're the only source on the internet that has the chords even close. Great job....ROCK ON!

[MrJoshCupcakes]

This reminds me of my brother who died at the age of 15.He was hit by a drunk driver.I miss him dearly.And yes he was defintaly a shooting star.I miss you forever bro </3

This is about them tributing to Jimi Hendrix and Janis Joplin.

[Clepto202]

[remrafsral]

@RiffPlayer

What are the right chords?

[LucysDadPlaysGtr]

@remrafsral should be G instead of D in the verse

[johnnyryder1982]

great job, one of my favs, what chords you use?

[johnnyboydmusik]

one my old time favs....JB

[davejm]

This was great! I don't know if it was intentional, but on some of your "don't" 's of "don't you know you are a shooting star" there was some vibrating or wavering in your voice and it sounds really great. Add that in more because it makes it sound much better!

[dnabb28]

very nice man....ive always loved this song, and you did it justice....hey if u get a chance check out my version of wont back down....did my best....

[PedrosProductions]

Nice work man!

[jcookee]

your holding back on your vocals man. throw some skat in. i dig your covers man.

[clevelandbrownsrule]

great tribuate to my cousin john valley who died at age 32 in his sleep and played guitar for a rock and roll band localy ' great song god bless my freind

[archambault65]

Wow, it's a great honor for you to share. God bless John Valley and the legacy he left, partiucularly through this immortalized song.

Thanks!

[clevelandbrownsrule]

this is not about John valley my cousin it is in the sequence of my cousin's life he played in a locale band and played guitar and died in his bed 'thank's if you still wan't to keep his trubate up that wou'ld be great

[Beamshipcaptain]

Great, except for a couple of flubbed chords. Eend of chrus you should play a G-chord(hold for 8-beats, then D-also hold for 8-beats, then E (hold the E for 16 beats, then start the next verse). Listen to it on Youtube, then please re-record and post a corrected version. Thanks dude! Otherwise good.

[Smitty489]

hahaha what if he doesnt re-record it and post it? Fuck off buddy and stop telling people what to do

[SixstringPlayR]

Yeah,you gotta like the Martin,lol

Can't afford one yet.

[archambault65]

Martin has great tone brother. I'm addicted. You'll get one eventually. Hang in there.

[IrishOwl]

Awesome thanks...can't wait to hear it.

[IrishOwl]

I was thinking "Can't You See" by the Marshall Tucker Band. If that doesn't make sense to do, sorry...but just throwing it out there.

[archambault65]

Love that tune. I did "Heard it in a Love Song" sometime back. I'll work on "Can't You See." I saw Marshall Tucker when I was 13, first concert I ever saw.

[IrishOwl]

this song is perfect for an acoustic, and you played it really well. do you take requests?

[archambault65]

Thanks IrishOwl - great name. What song are you thinking of?

[bigjovifan]

this is the best cover I've ever seen here on youtube, it sounds like u're a rockstar^^

Marc

[archambault65]

LOL, thanks Marc. I'm far from, just a simple guy who likes to "hum and strum," as my brother-in-law would say.

[bigdstocktrader]

Great job man! Loved it! You have some real talent there. Can we expect to see you on American Idol one day?

[beahgtm]

[archambault65]

Thanks for the good words brother. You know, at our age, it's about feeling good. As long as you enjoy it man, that's what counts. The simple things, ya know? I did this without the intro and being a fanatic, and it felt good. Thanks for your good words and I leave you with these words - go for it; follow your passion, you won't regret it!
