  • Well done, sir. Actually tempo was perfect. So good.

  • Love you <3

  • Amazing mate. I've done some covers if you want to check them out

  • I REALLY liked it! Except the tempo was toooo fast. You should have a few beers and redo it. Being sincere. :)

  • This is seriously gorgeous.

  • you are fucking incredible. thumbs up.

  • You just made my day. Amazing.... xo mom

  • this guy irritates the fuck out of me

  • @valahogy Why, he was great!

  • wow, this is excellent..

  • nice voice

  • Gay

  • perfection

  • This is brilliant. No one will ever rival Elliott himself but you have truly done his song justice. Bravo

  • OH FUCK. OH SHIT. YES. THIS.

  • Consider it retweeted!

  • That was fucking excellent.

  • best cover ever seen!

    just awesome :)))

  • holy shit

  • this is incredible 

  • TEACH ME!

  • I've tried to get it down like this for a year on and off. Still not there. A+

  • Wow kudos to you for even trying to play it! Great job and voice xoxoxoxoxxoxoxoxoxo

  • pretty dope!

  • marry me?

  • marry me?

  • Perfect! And that's a tough song to cover.

  • are you elliott's son? cuz u have a talent that only he has

  • Very nice cover!!

  • Your voice sounds a lot like Nick Drake. Loved the cover.

  • I think I am in love with you.

  • simply amazing bro. where'd you get tabs at, all mine are shit.

  • Awsom cover. Yet, i get the feeling its a bit speed up. Nice whispery voice though. Just like elliott.

  • is that a really tiny guitar or a giant person? sweet cover. :) thanks.

  • Happy new year!!! Awesome

    Start finding this gem of a cover. Best Elliot cover I have ever heard. Awesome

  • dude, wow its like elliot is back.

  • I didn't think anybody other than Elliott could play this. Please tell me you spent the last 10 years of your life just working on this song. I'm in love.

  • Brilliant

  • haha I know it is unbelivable difficult to play and sing at the same time.

  • Why does it seem like your guitar is so tiny? O.o

  • i'm so in love with you! hahaha. really great performance!

  • PLEASE MAKE A TUTORIAL!

  • yeah, very nice man

  • dude, you are very good...you have to teach me how to play this song:P...

  • So very nicely well done.

  • this is awesome, you're really talented.

  • oh my lord. ten thumbs up! D:

  • compliments

  • so when you strum do you use your index finger?

  • @brownstreaks69 I use my thumb index middle and ring finger.

  • he never updates his info. i hope he still plays or it would be a shame

  • your voice is different but is awesome. im serious, you should consider music for a career if you havn't already. really good man ill watch your other covers also

  • Oh mon dieu *o*

  • i really like this cover =]

  • you have a great voice, brother. A unique voice. Here it is over three years later, I hope you pursued your talent.

  • Domination on the guitar.

  • bravo!

  • dude, amazing, i need to learn how to play this, close second to elliot himself

  • the only guy on the planet other than smith him self that can play it

  • @djdan151 umm...theres a handful of covers here on youtube that are pretty awesome as well.

  • @djdan151 Um not true. By no means do I want to take away from this man's playing cause this cover is really good. His voice is perfect for it. But not even he is playing it right. the capo goes on the 7th the way Elliott does it, He capos the 5th like most people do. The closest I've ever seen anyone get is 94FAB10's cover

  • @punchintheface elliott played it with a capo on the 7th because he was usually tuned to D. it's the same as on the 5th fret in E.

  • @jfxnyp yeah he played in D alot. some of his tunings just blow my mind the man was genius, he didn't like to stick to the normal standard E ha. 2 45 am took me awhile to find that tuning. Regardless of how anyone else does it no one will make it sound just like he did. I've spent months and months and months trying to figure this song out perfectly. I don't think its possible

  • @djdan151 Exactly, and even he sounds just a bit wrong in places...but its still great...All bow to Elliot!!!

  • @djdan151 nah ive got a friend that plays this AWESOMLY!! AND I PLAY IT TOO.. we are like the perfect duo.

  • @djdan151 Check out my cover... and MitchGettman. It's pretty easy for an elliott song.

  • damn, i get so angry when i see cover videos of this song. only because i can't get the finger picking of the intro down. i wish i could play it like this. got any tabs?

  • Firstly, great guitar cover. Secondly, awesome voice. I've probably commented somewhere on this before, but I watch this now and again, and you rock bro.

  • Hey Dude,

    Mean cover. Straight up and down. I like the husky voice you've endorsed!

    Sick cover man. Keep up the good work.

  • very good cover buddy

  • the picking pattern is a bitch to get right

  • like your voice, good job, tough guitar song and great singing with it.

  • No one sings better than Elliott >< But this was a very nice interpretation. Great finger picking :)

  • You sing a lot better than Elliott Smith you are going to the top

  • i really like the smokiness of your voice :) plus you're a great guitarist. great video overall!

  • you nailed the guitaring better than anyone I've seen on youtube so far, you sound a bit like the Godfather though

  • Ur hot as f*ck, u can play ur geetbox at the end of my bed anytime...

  • Fuck you're good.

  • perfect guitar playing..voice wasnt too bad but it seemed like you were dave grohling it and straining your voice

  • you have a beautiful voice!...i think i am in love, jejeje.

    Seriously, you've played with the heart, that is transmitted. Thank you!...greetings from Argentina!

  • great

  • Nice job dude.

  • pretty voice !

  • Amazing job. Congrat.

  • Awesome! Really good!

  • you should do more covers man!!!

  • nice playing man.

  • Nice work my friend!!  ;-)

  • Is there a queue for the babies thing, or is it like on a 1st come 1st served basis?

    saludos desde argentina

  • You make me happy :) Thanks for keeping Elliott alive <3

  • wow. amazing

  • Now THIS is a good cover.

  • awesome cover, this is a pretty hard song

  • killer cover, you sound like jakob dylan.

  • I agree. Very Jakob Dylan esque. Good job as well man.

  • Very very good cover!

    Usually I'm not so motivated to listen a elliott smith's cover, coz their songs are so special ..

    But this one was great!

    Keep working! :-)

  • WOW.

    you sound so much like Elliott Smith :)

    And he is my favorite musician ever!

    Wish he was still around though.

    Anyway this is amazing!!

    5/5 stars for sure

  • You're voice is very smoky and raspy. In other words, I absolutely adore it! it's very original and...I gotta say...unbelievably hot! Great job with a great song!!

  • I was just wondering if you could post the chord formations if that isn't too much trouble

  • Probably the only correct cover I've seen on Youtube so far. Most people screw up the fingerpicking on the first few notes. Love the voice too.

  • dude has mad skills. i'm in love.

  • love it dude

  • excellent cover my friend, agreeing with these people, your voice sounds great for this song

  • ohhh my gud your voice! so awsome! love it! good cover!

  • you have a good voice

  • okay. that was amazing. that song is fairley complex. that was veryyyy good ((:

  • bravo bravo bravo

  • Excellent... très belle et unique voix.

    Du talent en masse.

    Mais pourquoi juste 2 vidéos? PLUS SVP!

    Merci de Montréal!

  • your voice is making me melt, I absolutely love it

  • Hi there, I'm keen on Angeles's cover video, and yours is the best I could have seen, you are very close to the original. So I wonder if you got the tab from this tune cause I really don't know where to look for anymore. If you can help ! (Gpro tab?)

    Thanks.

    Jeffranz

  • Fat Brian Wilsons tabs are the best, just google it..

  • you should tab this shit man, most accurate cover of this song on the web

  • Really like your voice man, the playing is good too, keep it up.

  • nicely done

  • Perfect voice !

  • shit he does sound like drake

  • You sound similar to Nick Drake.

  • wow, this is really nice (your playing's perfect) and your voice fits the song pretty well too =)

  • i love how you actually kept elliott's picking and strumming pattern everyone just strums the whole song... good job mate

  • a bit rushed

  • you sound so beautiful

  • how in the hell do you play that. you do its so on point. You should do a guitar lesson, that fingerstyle pattern is a bitch

  • so true! I've got the rest of the song on lock, but that bit at the beginning... fucking frustrating picking pattern!

  • ya its coming around pretty good tho. I was very discouraged at first. Im so used to beatles picking patterns like Julia and Dear Prudence. Same with Dylan stuff. This song is unique that way. ...Really? now its the other way around, Im getting the hang of the weird strum he does, I rarely play chords without a pick so doing that with bass notes is certainly different but ..a good different.

    This guy did a great job tho, his picking is on point

  • bestes cover was ich je gehört hab.

    greetz from germany

  • yay!

  • its a really hard song to learn well done

    sung like pete murry (search him up if u don't know him)

  • you look like andy samberg good job

  • where did you get the tabs bro?

  • great  nearly approached to the

    original

  • great cover. i'm envious of your talent. keep doing what you do man.

  • This was awesome. Its a shame such a beautiful song has to end.

  • i think he would weep in his sleep if he that

    beautiful man

    xxx

  • Man up brother and tab those notes!

    All the tabs I've found are pretty shitt-oy.

  • beautiful guitar... impressive keep playing dude.

  • omg you're so hot and so fucking good!

  • fuckng PERFECT. i suck at finger picking and i just cant get it down.

  • Amazing guitar playing, love this song, and I really dig your voice, its really bluesy.  It fits in a strange, but good way.

  • dam probley the best guitar cover ive seen on youtube... singings pretty good to
