  • Beautiful

  • you ma man are phenomenal, not too hard of a song to play if you can stretch your hands but i just wish I could sing like you!

  • Wow I am almost speechless, this is amazing. Props to you dude (:

  • unbelievable!

  • Dangerous amounts of funk... I'm going to have to flag this NSFW

  • You are amazing. Do you take requests? =)

  • that little freestyle at 1:07 is nuts dude

    

  • this is so good. I love this song, especially the live at radio city version. You knocked it out of the park.

  • guitar part is amazing!! you did a good job

  • awesome cover man. definitely gonna have to steal that left hand technique you use before the chorus and during jam as well as integrate that Emin7 chord i believe it is that you hit.. Awesome.

  • When playing this song, is the first chord 5-3-2-5-0-0?

    It's so hard to play that chord..

  • jesus,... its too funky in at my computer station I need to open the window

  • Great Cover! Nothing more needed to be said!

  • I would absolutely LOVE to learn how to play this song.

  • AMAZING vocals :)

  • Dude you NAILED it! Nice guitar btw......

  • Amazing bro

  • Anyone knows what brand/model guitar this is ???

  • as a person who also likes to play this song i must say great job. Keep playing my

    friend

  • Good job man...love your interpretation. keep it up!

  • most people completely shit the bed trying to cover dave but you did a nice job here man

  • love what you did with the "da dat dat dat da" section on the guitar...gave it your own little unique spin which could have resulted in a total FAIL but instead made it awesome!!!!!!!!!

  • good work man

  • Fantastic! Heal animals with your medicine. Heal us humans with your music!

  • Hey man, love your covers! guitar and vocals are on point as alwayse.

    your outro is outrageously funky, and i as well will have to add that to # 41 when i play...i just love how all of daves songs leave room for individualism, i dont think dave himself has ever played a song the same way twice...a true jamband

  • @fenders318 excellent DMB #41 is not easy so Im am impressed that you would take the time to learn it

  • I just wanted you to know that you make a kid in central Illinois really happy every day. Always make videos. Always.

  • I've only recently signed up to YouTube, but I've known about this cover for a while. Wonderful job. :)

  • what kind of guitar is that?

  • oh my this is by far my favorite Dave song.. and you did an amazing job. it was a joy to listen too.. =)

  • If I was a talent agent, I'd sign you...

  • If I was a talent agent, I'd sign you...

  • unreal man so talented...such an amazing song and a great job doing justice to it...i'd die to be able to play it like this.

  • To the artist, Very well done! I'm very impressed at the energy that came through... ;D

  • marry me??

  • It kills me to watch how effortlessly you play this. I've just started learning to play and I can BARELY stretch for those first couple of chords, and even then only when I walk my fingers up to it. I hate to think that DM may be out of reach (literally), but I think that may be the case. Makes watching you play like you do all that much more impressive. Awesome work.

  • dude... awesome I love the little funk riffs ya put in there. made it a unique cover, should be proud.

  • uhm wow... great cover.

  • best guitar cover to the song on youtube.

    dude where do you live, i play the drums.... we needa form a band hahah

  • this is what awesome sounds like! :D

  • Pretty Amazing, great job!

  • dude you are so good. I'm a huge dave matthews/ john mayer fan, and i gotta say, you do their songs so much justice. you're one of the best on youtube.

  • That's just ********* incredible! You've got the groove on this one

  • I listen to you everyday.

    Emphasis on: every. day.

  • omg. amazing... great job!

  • good job, 2nd chord in the verse- try putting your index finger on the 5th fret A-string instead of the d-string while playing that chord (Bm/Dsus4 or Bm/G6) The minor third sounds better IMHO. Sounds like you are enjoying yourself....nice tone!

  • Comment removed

  • your a beautiful singer/guitar player and have a soul for this and i enjoy every single one of your songs very very much

  • wow nicely done

  • my god. i was feeling good about my cover that i learned today... annnd looks like i can do a lot better haha. Keep it up brother. You'll give dave a run for his money

  • I really enjoyed that! Usually people tend to not sing very well when they're playing guitar at the same time but you got it spot on dude! Dave would be proud! :P

  • HOLY FREAKING GOD

  • amazing !

  • nice job spot on bro

  • Great playin man. Do you live anywhere near Boston?, i'd love to jam sometime.

  • i want to see you cut your left nut off , lol. thats mad funny i was dyin

  • sick

  • your little bridge between the verse and chorus sounds a little bit like raul midon's state of mind

    sounds sick!

  • superb

  • fucking awesome.

  • Great cover man. I know I can always count on you to nail the Dave covers. Keep up the good work man.

  • love your shirt

  • you are me hero

  • Man, that was awesome. SO MUCH cool improvisation. I play this song live at bars w/ my band, and I usually play a D as the second chord in the chorus. I'm using a Bm from now on. It makes the song more dense.

  • that is amazing! i wish i could play like you

    also, where did you get your t-shirt? love it :P

  • dude that was excellent, i loved the groovy ending.

    if you have time, could you check out my cover and let me know where you think I could improve?

    thanks

  • beautiful

  • ur the one

  • holy canoli!

  • I will cut out my own left testicle to be able to play this song like this... holy crap

  • dude, this is sick and ur voice is amazing...could you give me the tabs, i already know how to play the song just the part where you fool around at the part where you sas " na na na na nan na, na na na na nan na"...that part is sick...as is the whole song....even if it's not the tabs then just the chords and i'll figure out the rest...thatnks man

  • awesome

  • wow that was tight bro i loved it

  • you the man mike, I hope you don't mind that I stole your outro. It's just too good not to play

  • damn man i think dave him self wud steal that outro lol

  • haha of course not man, I'm glad you enjoy it! :D

  • awesome

  • I am not worthy! Great work.

  • omg.....dude...there is really no other word to describe it but it was amazingggggggggggggggggggggg

  • High Five dude!

  • is there a plectrum involved here?? nice job nailed it . . ..

  • u are the man dude. . .huge fan

  • sick

  • Buen trabajo, suena muy bien!

  • In my opinion you cover and understand DMB the best on youtube. Mad props to ya.,.. you are MUCH better than whodoblualittleboy or whatever is name is. He is all effects and doesnt get the music.

  • @justse2006 agreed...i looked up the other guy after i read this comment...his effects just throw me off...and the guitar [playing] in this one is 10000x more legit

  • @gezeebeezee In the DMB world some people get it and some people don't. 'whodoblualittleboy' is doin nothing more than showing off his gear. He has no idea why it is important to play the music correctly. He is not that talented at the end day.

  • amazing man

  • Nice cover....

  • Dude I could honestly see you and dave on stage performing this

  • Geez i'm totally gonna learn how to play like yooouuu

  • wow, i just never get tired of hearing you play this song! this is one of my favourite songs.... thanks for covering it. do you take request? i'd love to hear stolen away on 55th and 3rd PLEASE!!!!? thanks, Cora

  • what chords are you using for the intro? there isnt any good tabs

  • Those tabs can be found on any tab site... ten seconds and google will have your answer

  • wow, i like your cover!! keep up the music :]

  • unbelievably awesome.

  • DANNNGG... BBBOOIII.. that was an AMAZING OUTRO... YOU GOT MAD SKILLS BRO...

  • best cover on youtube, no doubt about it

  • really really great.

  • Holy Duck! That was magic!

  • Best choices on guitar work for this cover i've seen on the utube bro. Well done.

  • Thanks very much! :) And thanks so much everyone for the comments, I do read them all.

  • This is really good. I can't tell you how many times I've listened to this song. Keep up the great work.

  • Still the best dude.

  • Yes is he so much better than Mr Effects himself whodoblowsdick

  • I like how you keep to the way Dave Matthews sings it besides going over the top

    like all the other losers on here

  • Playing it like Dave show respect. Something many people know nothing about. Props to you sir.

  • GOOD SHIT, aka job well done

  • and i've listened probably almost all of the #41 covers on youtube and yours is in my opinion the best one i've heard. especially your guitar improv, keep it up.

  • Thanks so much :D

  • Nice job man.

  • Best cover ive seen of this song.

    amazing man

  • hey man nice guitar, great playing and singing. only thing is im pretty sure you played it different just on one minor chord during the whole thing, but repeatedly...unless i missed it and he's played it like that before

  • Thanks so much. I definitely kept the Live at Luther College Dave & Tim CD in mind while performing this. :)

  • what tuning is that in?

  • Standard tuning - EADGBE.

  • Awesome.

  • I absolutely love your outro! An instructional video would be amazing!

  • Great cover. I'm working on your #41 rather than the actural #41. =) I'm lucky enough to find your channel on youtube.

  • This is seriously by far THE best cover of this song. I really appreciate your ability to translate the song into what you made your own.

  • Amazing. Great Performance.

  • HAHA!!

    you actually look like dave matthews at the beginning!

    good job though...i always think its really hard to cover #41, but you obviously changed my view =D

  • Awesome!! 

    Could you please post the tabs for the little jam you do at 2:29 and at the end. I would appreciate it!

  • Thanks!

    I've been thinking about posting an instructional clip on how to play my outro; it seems like that's everyone's favorite part of the cover (which is awesome)... :)

    I'll try to get to that soon, but first I must endure a few more finals before I've completed my first year of veterinary school - wooo! Hehe.

  • Cool, thanks!

    Good luck with your finals!

  • dude you do all my fav songs!!

  • dude!!! you have the best cover out of anybody I have heard. You're voice and the way you play both sound incredible! Keep it up man!

  • HOLY SHIT

  • Haha yea, I always think about it but whenever I try, things don't turn out so good. :)

  • whoah i felt like i shoulda paid for that. awesome!

  • Wow, thanks. :)

  • nasty cover dude

  • good work man! dave is vocally hard to pull off, and you did it well. I like how you added your own thing to the guitar too.

    mark
