Great cover, of Johnny Cash's version. This is not Trent's. Sorry bro. Next time try his version. It's far better when you play the version of the song that was made first.
you do a decent cover. the problem is that most people both cover and more importantly love Cash's version of the song, despite the fact that Trent's is far more moving means so much more to him.
When Reznor played it last year at brixton, i saw 6 foot metalheads cry.
the voice adds very well to the underlying theme of this song, heroin addiction and depression.....it sounds better if the vocals are slightly off just to give it that sense dispair and loneliness.
That was brilliant, I don't know why people are being quite so critical, you did sing it better than Cash, although he was old at the time. I think it was a really good cover anyway, nice one :)
I don't get why some people hate his voice, he's covering the Cash version, and his voice sounds better than Cash's imo (dur cash was deadly-old when he sang it)
Get a capo and do it in a key you're more comfortable in. At times you were almost speaking because you were so low you had no sense of pitch. It sounded like William Shatner covering it, which nobody wants to hear.
Sounds aweful...started on the wrong key...you sound like a little kid trying to be johnny cash...my advice: Sing in your regular voice...and record yourself and listen to it a few times to correct your pitch.
I mean the guitarplaying was pretty good but it was the voice, if you got a dark voice, I mean if you didnt fake youre voice in the song its up to yourself if its good or not.
You have got a lot of good critics here, but I`ll think its healty to get some negative critics sometimes!
The reason of why am saying it is because the voice is dark and reminds me aboute a guy trying to make hes voice sounds differents from what it really is... like faking.
And not a bitch, Im just trying be critical, cuz if you cant listen to youre critics, why posting a video to youtube witch is a critical site!
Thanks for the criticisms, thats whats good about youtube, I wanna know what other people think. Does it sound like faking to sound like Johnny Cash or just shitty faking?
I think it's a mix - it's definitely too low for your vocal range, and you should pull the vocals (if not the whole song) up an octave to suit your voice so that you don't stress your vocal chords too much.
Vary nice. I like the vidio on the strumming this will help me learn it. You've got it down! Next you need to do the cords so I can get that part down, lol. Untill then, keep it up.

damn, the thing i like about all your videos is that you actually make the transition and sound like whoever you are covering, i know it doesn't mean shit to you, but i am impressed with your covers guy...
Good cover

This comment has received too many negative votes show
It's clear now that some people were meant to play songs, and others were meant to listen to them. I think you were meant for the latter.
This sucks hoss.

Fuck man just be yourself. There's no way that's your natural singing voice.
Either bring it up an octave and sing naturally or just play guitar and don't sing.
