[Millwall77]

Great cover!

[karldeeter]

@Millwall77 cheers!

[velissariost]

Απάντηση σε αυτό το βίντεο...  good job dude

[warheaddoomripper]

kick ass

[ghostofchat77]

This is a good cover. My only problem with the Exploited is their song called F the USA. They need to direct their hatred against the government. The people are not at fault for the corruption.

[tomhunter4x4]

great cover. have you got a tabs. Punk's not dead.

[Virus71193]

amazing

[faggoteyes]

If you could somehow send me a tab on how to play that I'll love you forever, I really want to add that to my library of songs to play.

[faggoteyes]

Holy shit I want to learn how you played that.

[rocknroll181]

[lachusmanoserinde]

very very good

greetings and thanks for uploading

[storminrags]

great version.lyrics so relevent now.if u2 did this it would sell millions n spread a good anti war message.

[Steampunx]

fuck u2 and there rich bitch ass, people just care about u2 because its famous, not because of there anti war song, The exploited were way more implicated into war than u2 will ever be

[j0hnwoodlock]

@ Steampunx Oh yeah! Watties really "implicated into war". What with his ocasional bouts of rascism and giving the odd slap to woman. Twat.

[Steampunx]

where are the common points ?

[karldeeter]

@Steampunx i don't know.

[cillmhantain]

Nice one Karl, that's b1tchin! Need to upload some of the Crazy Days stuff from Chicago. Any chance?

[karldeeter]

@cillmhantain i'd mail ya an mp3 of it if ya want?

[cillmhantain]

Well, I have a lot of that already on a cd that you mixed with a bunch of Soft Cell and Communards but I was more suggesting that you put some of that stuff up here.

[oceans34]

Wow dood that was mother fuckin amazing bro, thanks for sharing this with us. I really liked what you brought forth to the table man.

[karldeeter]

[mantozor07]

realy wonderfull!!!!!!everything is right in it.this is my favorite from exploited and this cover is magic.try something like this with UK82 i'm sure you can do it!!!!!!let's start a war!!!!!!!!!!

[karldeeter]

i'll have a look at that and see if i can do it

[sharkycwb]

fuckin' awesome dude

[csakegypunk]

NICE!!!!! 5/5 grat

[karldeeter]

thanks a million! cheers for the 5*!

[violavpeace]

wow this was nice,

i would to learn this song on my acoustic.

you showed post a video on how to play this song.

[karldeeter]

glad ya liked it!

[mezhaka]

i am neither an exploited fan nor am i like the way exploited perfom that song -- your version is way better.

[karldeeter]

thanks for the compliment! although i wonder if a cover can ever be better than an original? anyway, thanks for checking it out really appreciated it!

[WolfsGimpyWrath]

yeah go for a levellers style of singing with this acoustic song

[manifestoHC]

When punk rock have some melody it has the same idealist and touching spirit as folk protest songs.

I think Wattie Buchan (exploited´s singer) is an asshole, but Exploited´s music is excellent and "alternative" is their best music.

Hey, dude, i know, this is an unplugged version, but put a little bit of anger in your voice. That´s what i love about the english punk of the 80´s. The mixture of rage with some melody

[mohawkboy666]

The Exploited arent English they are scottish

[longlivetheloud2]

People say he's a nazi, and i speculate he just did it for shock value. With song titles like Class War and Hitler's in the Charts Again, i don't think he was a far rightist.

[mohawkboy666]

Hitlers in teh charts again isnt a pro nazi song or even a song in support of the right wing and class war is about the british class system and its inequalities its got nothing to do with nazis or nazi politicts

[longlivetheloud2]

Dude, i know. that's what i meant. there's people saying that the Exploited are right wing and stuff so i was talking about those songs and how they're left wing in nature.

[blackcard23]

nice job! and nice voice too ;P

[didomalta]

Wow Karl,cheers mate..i really had a ball 10x..play another exploited tune pls

[mallikas87]

very nice

[grosmonstre]

you're really good, thank you for your cover

[MrPunkrawk82]

awesome man.. could you post a video showing how to play that ??would love to learn it ..

[kijanapunk29]

this is awesome!! congratulation!! ;)

[jasall18]

I couldn´t belive enyone could play a song by The Exploited on that way GREAT JOB

[karldeeter]

thanks! glad ya liked it!

[jasall18]

Of course i do! You sing great man! (:

[punkrockprincess80]

We love you Karl!!!

[karldeeter]

;-) thanks a million! hope all is well with you! talk soon, karl

[venezuela4ever]

holy shit. thats amazingg! i wanna know how to play the fancy stuff!

[karldeeter]

it's fairly handy, you just have to play single strings a little, Bm, G, D & A even if you don't do the fancy stuff it'll sound roughly the same.

[nvm0]

cool,sounds awesome

[opivy07]

just to let you know the exploited are english not scottish, great cover though.

[karldeeter]

they are fron edinburgh? that makes em' scots in my book! lol.

[mattm1sf1t]

haha The Exploited are English?!?

No mate, they are very much Scottish!

[dmattt]

Very nice cover! I never would have imagined an accousitc cover of an exploited song! But WOW! You did it my friend! Well done! =)

[HughLaurieFan93]

nice !!! i like it =)

[mullenkullen]

too good,love it,nice job!!!

[doublekick777]

thats nice man. pud( drummer the explioted 1990/91).god bless

[karldeeter]

well f@#k me! thats the first compliment i ever got from a person in the actual band who's song i'm doing! nice one mate! thanks!

[doublekick777]

This was a great song to play live. But your cover allowed me to think back to that time . nice vibes. ian

[karldeeter]

ultra kudos! and thanks again for checking out this vid, i've thought about doing another acoustic cover of an exploited tune but can't seem to find another one suitable, can't really imagine 'punks not dead' on an acoustic! drop by again some time! cheers, karl

[doublekick777]

yeah, will do that. cheers. ian

[lowiezandstra]

good work man

nice guitarplay you

have a nice voice

greetings from holland

[Punkforbrains]

Very nicework.

Not a fan of accoustics personaly, I really love speed, but this is very nicely done.

Its always good to hear somones OWN perspective on a song. Its often irritating to hear a re-hash of a famous song. Itsalways to hear something new and fresh.

Good work big guy

Oi!

[karldeeter]

i know an acoustic cover probably goes against the grain with the die-hards, but i'm delighted to get a comment like this from a died in the wool punk!

[chewbacscar]

Haha, it would be fun to see wattie sing this version on a beach or something with a bunch of hippies all around him.

This version is not quite my style but I have to admit this is a good job and you can play too.

I wish I could play this version(just for fun) but I'm too bad.

[karldeeter]

with hippies? now yer really dreaming! lol!

I blast the original when driving on long trips, it is really an anthem of my youth, now that i'm a bit older i thought the anti-army/war message could be done in a chilled out manner and figured i'd cover it acoustically! I hope the guys from the band hear this some day (and obviously that they are not offended by it!) thanks for checking this out.

cheers

karl -btw: chords are simple, Bm7, G, D, A (don't bother with fancy bits)

[zgoioi]

your great

cheers

[Yamoussoukro00]

awesome

[karldeeter]

glad ya liked it! thanks for leaving a comment! i never understood the lyrics before covering it either! guess thats just scottish accents!

[457]

Dude, if you woulnt mind could you pass me the tabs for this cover of yours?

i really liked it and soon there is

going to be a acoustic session

and i really like to play this song

like you do here:)

[karldeeter]

hey! glad ya liked the tune! capo the 2nd fret, the chords are Bm,G,D,A and thats about all there is to it the bass runs i put in are there to mimick the song but they are not necessary

[457]

thanks mate,

i really appreciate it,

and ill think ill get

those mimmicks somehow

were working on it :)

perhaps when its recorded ill

let you know when its posted :)

[karldeeter]

let me know when ya post it! put it up as a video response here too if ya like. good luck with it! cheers, karl

[SebFromGermany]

I repeat the song now 5 times. It´s really great. 5 stars!!!!! You give the song your own carakter. A new carakter. Tomorrow i will try do make a soft keybord backing. For your version this end is to plump. I know you can make a better ending.

Your style remember me a bit to: bob dylan or donovan.

I think an open ending (loud to quiet) with an harmonica at the end would be very great.

[karldeeter]

post it as a video reply! i´d love to hear it!

[SebFromGermany]

Take a band (bass, drum, harmonica) and make something out of this. I think it´s something people want to hear!!! Very well done.

No risk No fun. Try it!!!

[Rickyandersson]

you are good karl!

[karldeeter]

thanks ricky! glad you liked it!

[karldeeter]

in that case 100% thanks this time! cheers, karl

[karldeeter]

the only bit i can read is the smiley faces! assume its not something bad ya wrote, so thanks! :-)

[YOORKOO]

BRAVO! (:
