this is i think your best work yet, you dont sound like yoyu are using eq"s to change your voice or amping your imperfections. Sounds awsome do more like this.
damn, you both are just too, too adorable :) can't stop listening to your music! and you both have amazing God-given gifts! Thank you for sharing that with all of us who are your biggest fans!
That was unbelievable...i'm listening to all of your stuff right now...and Dave Matthews is my favorite artist ever...you nailed that song and made it your own! Awesome!
Thought you did amaizing.....it is a hard song to sing and you even attempting to sing it gives you balls....you did (i'll say it again) amaizing...those who say otherwise are, well I truely don't know what they are thinking...keep it up!!
So, I have really enjoyed every video of yours. My fav band in the entire world, BY FAR is Dave Matthews Band... I am beyond a hardcore fan, so when someone attempts to cover a song of his I am quite protective.
This is an immensely difficult song to sing, and typically Dave is the only person that can sing his songs. But I really enjoyed your version. That's saying alot. Keep up the great work man!!!
Wow. OMFG you sir are amazing , words cant describe, This is a hard tune to master but you contently have my friend,,, You are are well on your way.....
wow!!! i have been watching your videos but this is the first time I saw you having companion, but he is very good in playing guitar, guess he can be a lead guitar. Extend my regards to him. But you James, you are really amazing, imagine you can shift to different genres in music!!! wow i really salute you, you are one of a kind.
Wow. I didnt know you had this range. Im used to your low deep voice. I have no idea why you wouldnt post this. I love this. It really proves you can play anything. I hope you go big.
we are seeing the light of great talent, expressed here on youtube. It shines clear over here, in California, James, I can see it clear from here, and look at all of these comments...oh, my. I feel like I am seeing Tod Snyder come to life..this is special. Will keep you in my prayers, know it will come to pass...whooooohoooooooo! We are so lucky!
James... I see no reason whatsoever that you should be unsure about posting this one. YOU ROCKED IT! You n ur friend did awesome! Keep it up hun! Catch you later! Heather
i would say this is the best song that youve done talentwise because it is a very very hard song. and major kudos to the guy playing the guitar. ive tried and tried tried and this song seems impossible to play. :) great job guys!!!!
this is such a great song.PERIOD, HOWEVER THE TWO OF YOU REALLY SOUND AMAZING PLAYING THIS SONG, VOCals are great and so is the guitar playing.i cant wait to buy an album! your a fan of mine definatly now!
I think you knocked this one out of the park. Nice vocals and guitar playing. The two of you may have something together. I've seen all of your videos but especially like those with the collaboration.
Amazing, I love that you are beginning to reach out further and get over some of the shyness we saw when you first started this. This was great as usual and look forward to the next. Your back up guitarist is amazing but you don't give up on playing. 5 *****'s
Amazing. I don't think you could ever dissapoint when you start singing. You're friend did awesome on the guitar, too. I can't wait to hear more from you.
omfg that was awesome.So going to be my new favorite James Dupre song....I have to disagree with job1201204,I love the hair,and the look very sexy(Said in a strictly platonic way).You both looked and sounded really good:)
Hmm, already you are changing your clothing and your hairstyle. I love you singing, I have said this before, but please stay true to yourself, and stick to your roots. Do not become like many other singers who let the attention feed their personal egos and start to get into the fashion of fame. Just be true, be real, and be yourself.
Take it from someone who has met James. He was so shy in the begining he's finally opening up and becoming comfortable. He is the most genuine guy ever! I don't think that he will change. I think he is finally getting a chance to be himself. Besides he looks and sounds AMAZING!!!
Your always amazing and your guitarist friend there is pretty good on that guitar as well. I'd like to hear more from the both of you together. Also, your sound has been really great too...obviously great equipment. Take care.
I'm speechless. I have literally run out of words to express how amazing you sound. I love Dave Matthews but that was UNBELIEVABLE!!! Umm, so when is the CD coming out? I'm so ready.TTYL! Tell Kristen I said Hi! And your boy's pretty good on that guitar. :)
Well Hoss, if you say its hard to sing you didn't show it. That was great and I haven't heard a shit tune from you yet keep it up I'll get the tickets to see you when you headline Blossom Misic Center in cleve \,,/
Awesome singing, awesome guitar playing. The truth is, take your friends along with you for the ride of a lifetime. Give them all that opportunity. Kenny Chesny did that. Who knows, maybe Chris will write a hit song or help co-write one. Every guitar player is a songwriter at heart.
James, you are really good.But you know that,everyone tells you that..Personally,I think what makes you so good,its the fact that you can sing country and rock, classical..And that is what seperates you from all the other wanna be singers on youtube..I hope you continue to do so well.I subbed ya
