[Grahamx227]

I came not expecting much - I left blushing. Great job man.

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@Grahamx227 Thanks a lot, it means much to me ... It's a very difficult song, you know, thanks for letting me know, you're welcome !

[Hidioshe]

armenian ????

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@Hidioshe Italian ^_^

[BlisherMG]

Well done bro, but I cant stand midi drums :<

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@BlisherMG Hi Marek ! If I had the chance I would have largely preferred to have real drums myself too, I agree. Thanks and welcome ! Alec

[BlisherMG]

@ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC

I know its very hard go get real drums, but you have to try Drumsite

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@BlisherMG I will check it out, thanks ! ;-)

[robertadiskin]

Just came back after a year or two of first seeing. The filming and everything still blow me away!! Absolutely love it!!! I really admire you for this rendition.

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@robertadiskin Thank you very much, it means a lot to me Roberta ! In these 2/3 years this video has reached many hearts and I'm very glad ! Thanks again for your new comment.

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@DreamShaolin600 Thank you ;-) I agree, naturally, about the song and the album.

[Thatpyroguy]

That was amazing! I'll subscibe! Mad props. I loved it.

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@Thatpyroguy Thanks a lot ! I'm glad you liked it ! This is one of the cover I did with more *heart*. You're welcome !

[singerhunter56]

loved it well done its in my fav

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@singerhunter56 Thank you very much for liking, favoriting and letting me know you liked it ;-) You're welcome !

[MrJacMac1986]

Just imagine how good it would have been if Eric Woolfson could have been a 5th member of Pink Floyd.Just a fantasy: The Waters/Woolfson Project

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@MrJacMac1986 Waters and Woolfson are simply my favourite authors ever ... so it would have been a magical shock to hear a song penned by the two together ... even if, let's admit it, their styles are a bit different. One of the things that honours me the most when I post original stuff of mine is when people comment that there's a bit of those styles in my style, remaining original of course. There is a meeting point in their styles, altought different. Great crescendo music points. Sensibility

[dubickisbro]

This guy can sing his ass off but he should do something other than stand there, great cover though

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@dubickisbro Thanks and I quite agree. I have two excuses by my side. First, I tried to emulate the atmosphere of Roger's presence in the official Final Cut video EP, where he stands sit (even with half face in darkness) ... and, second, in another cover (by ELO) someone said it would have been better if I had my arms down, still ... so, pretty hard to satisfy the optical taste of everyone. Jokes apart, I prefer too when videos are more 'active', and I made a couple this way (Supertramp). Cheers

[PaccoCamiloGuitar]

excelente

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@PaccoCamiloGuitar Muchas Gracias ! ;-)

[sandermatthijs]

And if I show you my dark side will you still hold me tonight? Nothing less than brilliant.. So is your cover, this is a very difficult song to do..

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@sandermatthijs Thanks Sander ! I adore the Waters lyrics here and always. Yes, it's pretty difficult song to sing, but I strongly wanted to do this, and I'm happy it's appreciated ! Hugs from Italy

[VirtuousxOne]

I enjoy your covers, Alec. You should give "The Gunner's Dream" a try. It's my favorite song off of The Final Cut.

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@VirtuousxOne Thanks a lot ! You're welcome ! I love "The Gunner's Dream" too ... I adore almost all the "The Final Cut" album. Reasons I don't do more covers are It's hard to find some good backing tracks and copyright holders are giving us all a bad time here on YouTube. Thanks for the suggestion anyway, keep following my channel ;-) (Feel free to subscribe if you haven't)

[osovagabundo1]

i just lost my dad to cancer around this time, rger translated a lot of that same angst for me. living around miitary bases i saw the very things he spoke of on a daily basis and all this music will represent that time of my life.

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@osovagabundo1 For my own part, my personal history is very different from Roger memories BUT at the same time since the very first moment I focused on lyrics like The Wall ones or The Final Cut ones I found Roger words able to express some sides of me nobody ever described so well. Hugs from Italy, I hope my cover has been of help. Alec

[IVTTMC]

Very nice I thought it was really good

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@IVTTMC Thanks a lot !! You're welcome ! ;-)

[bonzobakermoon]

i play drums,would love to get together and play some tunes, i am located in ohio,love your vocals and love the fact that you like to sing these not as popular floyd tunes

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@bonzobakermoon Thanks again ! Yes, I usually like more some songs that weren't 'a single' ;-) Uhm ... I'm open to collaborations ... I'll let you know ! Best, A.

[bonzobakermoon]

nice job man!

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@bonzobakermoon Thanks a lot and Happy Holidays ! You're welcome !

[fab462]

beautiful



[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@fab462 Thanks ;-)

[fab462]

@ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC i know how to play guitar in this song you and i should do duet anyways i love your voice the new roger waters voice

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@fab462 Thanks again !! I'm open to duets idea. I will let you know :-)

[roydagger]

Hearing you do this brought back a lot of memories

of being a naive 15 year old and being totally transfixed by the misery and mystery

of this Waters masterpiece.

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@roydagger wow, Thank You !

I was around the same age too when I discovered this gem (I'm 27 now). Thank you very much. I have other Pink Floyd covers on my channel, even if not as unusual choices as this one ... more, I did a collaboration cover of "Hey You" on the youtube channel of a friend who named it youtube.com/spettacolare. Feel free to check it out, you're welcome !

[PlanTonto]

@roydagger And now? U happy?  U good? Just wondering. I am 47 and I am still transfixed....you?

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@PlanTonto I can't speak for Roy, but after a decade of personal listenings I'm still blown away anytime I put The Final Cut in my player, feeling transfixed, happy and good ;-)

[elchicodelasuerte]

Sos un genio! Es buenisimo es cover que te mandaste! GENIOOOOO!!! IDOLOO!

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@elchicodelasuerte Gracias !!!

[robertadiskin]

I can't listen to music I love without singing along. I am absolutely awful though.

This song is one of my most cherished. You definitely do it justice as far as I'm concerned. Excellent!

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@robertadiskin Thank you very much ! Yes, I also can't resist to sing along usually ... that's how I started. Believe it or not, not many years ago I wasn't any near as good as I'm now singing, and I never had any teacher. I hope to become a professional, I'm working on it. Thanks again, you're welcome ;-)

[thedeadliest]

omg you're very very very good! how long have you been studying music?

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@thedeadliest Thank You ! My goodness, I NEVER studied music ^_^ ... So I take your question as a big compliment ! I just practice my singing voice almost everyday by myself since some years, and I just had some very short and very few lessons of how vibrato could/should sound few years ago ;-)

[thedeadliest]

@ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC and good tulips, they remind me to the album 'the final cut'

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@thedeadliest That's exacly why I wanted them in the video ;-)

[vladvampire]

Fantastic, magnific, WHAT A VOICE!!!!!! When are you going to prepare a tribute to ROGER WATERS?

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@vladvampire I'd really like to, someday. But I also write songs of my own. Some advanced demos are on my channel. Check them out if you like ... I could suggest you "Wind Of Memory", for example. And Roger is surely one of my inspirations, even if I like to be myself with my own style of writing - I'm sure he would agree ;-)

[thismaybeusername]

Fantastic cover!

Those high notes are quite difficult, but you still did a great job!

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@thismaybeusername Thank you very much ! I appreciate it ! ;-)

[Alnoshic]

Oh my god, you sound almost just like Rodger Waters! Good job :) Also, do you have an accent?

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thank you ;-) Well, I'm Italian, and I guess you can hear that. Thanks again !

[diztanguy]

@ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC.VERY GOOD! R.W.

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

@diztanguy Thank you very very much ! PS: Doesn't R.W. stands for Roger Waters does it?! ^_^

[diztanguy]

@ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC.that s for me to know and for you to find out.i have good fans in italy.

[davidrums9]

-Blushing- :-))) Thank you very very much JO, from the deep of my heart !!!

[RogelyW]

Genial como suena tu voz Alec!! bonito el efecto de las flores cambiando de color. Te deseo los mayores exitos del mundo!!

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Muchas muchas gracias !!! :-)

[Pinkchyo]

Fucking Great! Finally I Found A Great Cover. By The Way Those Flowers Look Like Opiom.

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thank you so much, I'm so glad people like my rendition !! The flowers are not real but they are poppies reproductions. I was inspired to use them in the video by the photos in the booklet of the album. You're welcome !

[danielspital]

omg at points you sound identical to walters, amazing job

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thank you very much, means a lot to me !

[ikbrandon]

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

[1713162434]

congrats dude! really nice voice!!!!

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thanks again, very much !

[p0werlunch]

excellent job, brother!

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thank you, you're welcome ;-)

[MrAEM2010]

You have an amazing voice. Have you considered going professional?

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Actually, it's my target, Yes. But I'm in the focus of self-improving my vocals control. The difference is notable year by year. So it's a slower process that one could expect. However, Thanks a lot again for your kind comment ! ;-) Much appreciated!

[komputerwelt]

Fantastic. Mesmerizing! I agree with you that thisi s one of the most beautiful, moving, touching songs in the whole world.

Waters and Floyd = Genius.

Final cut is terrific. best lyrics of PF in my opinion, even though waters is mostly responsible for all of it.

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thank you very much !

It's always great to have such great comments from Floyders. Long live PF !

And thanks for subscribing, I really appreciate it ;-)

[grzechu1987]

great performance, keep it up!

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thanks a lot ;-)

[ignitionfive]

Love your singing on this Alec. You do it with great passion too. Wonderful stuff. jh :)

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thank you so much jh ! I do my best to let everyone feel what -I- feel when I'm singing moving songs like this one, and I'm very happy that it shows ;-) Thanks again !

[zibiKamil]

thats a very good cover

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thanks a lot !! You're welcome !

[justme6555]

wow I'm becoming quite a fan

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thank you very much ;-)

[welshrugbyfan2]

Wow, you have a good voice. I love singing this song, but I can never hit the high parts like you did. :P

Nice one.

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thank you ! You're welcome !

[sandermatthijs]

Alec, you like this song a lot, obviously.. what are your other favourites...

And, I live in Italy now.. i want to go to Roger this summer because I heard he comesto play in June ? You know more ?

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Roger playing in Italy in June? No, I didn't heard anything like that in Floyd's latest news sites. Where did you read it? About my PF other favourites, Us And Them, Welcome To The Machine, Dogs (I uploaded a partial cover of this one in October 2008). Thanks for asking !

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

I forgot ... and almost EVERY track from THE WALL ;-)

[sandermatthijs]

Some Italian girl, but I think she is not right because it's nowhere to be found..

My favourites are; this one of course plus the entire album and The Wall album.. but almost all Pink Floyd albums..

[sandermatthijs]

Great job man, I know how difficult this song is to sing properly..

Does anybody if there's a live version from Waters himself? Can't find it anywhere.. thanks a lot..

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thanks a lot Sander ! You're welcome !

I don't think I ever listened to a live version of this tune from Roger himself, sadly. If it exists I think it can only be on Pros&Cons tour bootlegs.

[cliiff2]

excellent job!

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thanks a lot !! You're welcome ;-)

[Cheezburger2012]

This really good.

Bravo!

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thank You !!

[stucker78]

Would make Pink proud :)

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Oh, really Thanks :-)

[giinhhakha]

So long since I've heard this song. You do a great job with it.

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thanks a lot !

[bbaaaaaaaaaa]

I just came back, to watdh again.

Thank you for the video and for have sent me a message.

You know, not many people, recognise how much Pink Floyd is, to the art and music.

[bbaaaaaaaaaa]

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thanks !!

[mikec32001]

Wow - I love this song and you've done a really beautiful version - well done.

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thank you very much !

[bmironworker]

great job.......that must be one tough song to try to sing........wtg

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Hi bmironworker ! Yes, it really is. Thanks ! W Roger Waters

[jimjones5775]

I think some songs, especially Floyd songs, sound best with just a hint of a foreign accent.

[jimjones5775]

I really enjoy this..... I truly do. I only wish I had a foreign accent.

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thanks a lot man ! Why do you wish to have a foreign accent ? I'm curious. I'm Italian and I worked a little on pronunciations in English songs, but I still make mistakes. It would be easier if I'd be born in London ^_^

[mirella514]

Awesome! *****

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thank you Mirella ! Comments like this from a true Floydian like you make me glad even more !

[blastingcaps]

[floyd011080]

Speriamo che Roger non lo ascolti!!! Perdonatelo!!!

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Visto che hai messo il mio video tra i preferiti, immagino ti stessi rivolgendo ad urbania70 (che è comunque un fan dei Pink Floyd, anche se non adora The Final Cut).

[urbania70]

OK.. your singing is very good as always.. it's only, as u probably know, I cannot sustain this album.. SORRY!.. But.. great use of colours.. how did you do to keep the flowers coloured and you on B&W?

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thanks for the singing note, G !

I simply used the changing colors ... and my face didn't change 'cause it's too pale ^_^'

[urbania70]

Haaa, clever!

[urbania70]

and you sound very like Roger here!

[EpicAcoustics]

i like the flowers too :]

[ALEClovesGENIALMUSIC]

Thank You Allison ^_^

[EpicAcoustics]

BRAVO!

[mbrellin]

Fatta bene Alex, bravo!
