Breaking Benjamin - Give Me A Sign ( piano cover by Gavin Mikhail )

[distantstar100]

Awesome cover of an amazing song...beautiful voice, stops me in my tracks every time I hear it!

[mvah07]

I KIND OF like the original song when I heard it the first time because I felt something...hearing this shows me that i wasn't wrong, this song is beautiful and you make it sound epic!

[AmandaTheNinjaPanda]

This is so beautiful it gave me chills.

[pinkelie123]

Different, but good :)

[TheDutchFear]

dear god! best cover out there! great job!

[illo1987]

such a good voice but you slow down songs WAAYYYY too much

[sasukeismine6]

Oh my. I nearly cried. You are amazing and this song is so beautiful the way you preform it<3

[kitathewhitewolf]

your covers and music always seem to capture my heart. I can never seem to get enough of your music. It just speaks to my heart. Its so beautiful. You just give songs a new feel, and its something to be appreciated. I wish I had talent like that. Keep up the amazing work and keep the music coming. I will forever remain a fan.

[Jokitzm24]

Love it, wish it was slightly faster though.

[burningfate913]

beautiful!!

[pietervdk99]

Hello, I really like your video's!

Can you make a cover of the song Hallelujah?

x

[Angela020202]

Hey! Where can I get the sheet music for this song?

Thanks! :)

[Bbrothers5]

this video is even more beautiful with the youtube snow :)

[jnjwhoot]

@gavinmikhail Can you do a cover of the song Love Never Fails- Brandon... It's a beautiful song, and you have amazing talent!

[NaPaLmZoMbIe1]

ur voice is easier for me to match than ben's :)

[CaryHadden]

You're sooooooooooo good, man. Please do an Avenged Sevenfold song.. It would be amazing if you did Warmness On The Soul. But, it's already on piano. :/

[x0scimy0x]

I have to be honest, I don't like how soft the vocals are. But, this is a great variation to the original. /Liked.

[fi5h81]

I just watched all of Your covers and i'm impressed. Many songs was better than originals. Thanks for that, for sure I will come here inf uture many times. i think U can sing any song in that way how U do that and it will be greate cover.

[Pablovalverde413]

How much money this microphone costs?

Bless :)

[gavinmikhail]

@Pablovalverde413 Thanks for your comment, Pablo... I actually JUST posted about my gear on my Facebook page - facebook (dot) com (slash) gavinmikhail Hope that helps (and thanks again)!

Gavin

[mandypandy3355]

You are great

[sugarqueen98]

Metal fan here.

HOLY LORD!!!

I loved piano music too before but aaaah breaking benjamin and your cover too fantastic <3

[Kicxis]

*-* <3 Magnifique <3 :DD

[bryced13]

Frodo!



[ZoeLewi2643]

So my friend and I covered your version of the song instead of the original... Then added in some bits from the original :P Hopefully we'll finish recording it soon and you could see it :) Love your work

[gavinmikhail]

@ZoeLewi2643 Zoe! How have you been? Just autographed your cd yesterday... :) You'd better get me your version when it's done, ok? I'd love to see it...

Hope you're doing great...

Gavin

[OutCry97]

@gavinmikhail Aha awesome, can't wait! :D And of course, as soon as we have a CD we'll send it to you. I think we're gonna do one of covers first, then write our own songs, which we've already started doing :) So excited about all this :D I'm great thanks, super busy at the moment though, with practising songs, getting ready for GCSEs and doing assemblies and gigs for my music teacher, but it's all really good and great fun :)

Hope you're fantastic

Zoe x

[OutCry97]

@OutCry97 Just realised I used my old account before, sorry if that confused you. I am ZoeLewi2643 though :P We have one video... but it's... a bit silly really :)

[xXRevenantAngelXx]

I love your voice....;3

[McAwEsOmE119]

it sounds so sad... but in a good way it makes me wanna cry :'(

[Musicislifeeeee1]

Im ashamed to say this, but i think this is better than breaking benjamin.

[dante1992sc]

esta muy bueno



[motig79]

you are so talented ... i'm speachless...

[pagirlee]

Stumbled upon you by accident... and very glad I did... Relaxing and beautiful. I've studied music, I used to compete, etc... and it is a joy to sit here and harmonize with your videos! Love them! A true talent!

[DusksRage]

The piano,your voice,your expression just scream the depressing message this song conveys 6/5

[EIspeth]

You inspire me.

[mrshredstarZ]

This is the first one I heard from you Gavin, always has a special place in my music collection

[Aquasaphir]

it moves me deeply; just beautiful ♥

[Augenblickx3]

wow :o

[red17man]

This whole song i'm just waiting for you break out singing...but you didn't

[wij78oep]

I love every second from 0:06 to 5:15 of this song!

[rockmusicfreak10]

It sounds really nice! u have a great voice!! good job! :)

[jakedorr5]

I don't want to hate on you because you're clearly very talented, but I really hate how you sing this(and just about everything else you sing) with such a whispery voice, like I would just really like to hear you sing something by singing out a lot instead of being so incredibly soft, I like it when people have a powerful voice and when I can hear them using it like its powerful. That's just my opinion, you're still obviously a good musician and I really dont mean for this to be negative.

[darklink401]

@jakedorr5 ...you obviously haven't seen hi Waiting for the End cover o: If that's not a powerful voice, idk what is XD

[Pariahproductions1]

Okay, but this song has to be sung for someone... You need that pain to drive the emotion. Don't get me wrong, it's amazing and sad. But I don't feel the sorrow of loss... Just my opinion.

[JakobSvensk]

A super cover! I hope you can do more Breaking Benjamin songs in the future.

[UberMatTuck]

Please do dear god by Avenged sevenfold.

[Angela020202]

@UberMatTuck i wish he does.. <3

[HeGonBeAlright]

i can whisper and sing to.... :p but good job man :)

[CelawiGospodin]

Hey bro , this is awesome...i was like totaly random searching for some covers , and BOOM , I found this :D

I really like Breaking Benjamin , and this is so far the best cover i've seen on youtube.

If you want you can do EVANS BLUE-ERASE MY SCARS....great song it is :D

[StrikerANDShade]

Can you please do a Yellowcard cover?

[ashish308]

god bless you :)

[jarl360]

Teh hell? I just downloaded that stuff... and i didn`t gave me this song.?

it gave me a lot of other songs...

Y U NO GIVE ME SONG?

[moshtaa9]

Fuckin Awesome Bro' Keep On :D

[illegalmexicanssuck]

I cried....... Thank You!

[BAP523]

You kinda look like neil patrick harris lol great cover

[Falcon620]

Not gonna lie... I didn't like it at first but that was dope! Great job!

[XxToxicxSnipezxX]

THIS + RAINY MOOD = SEXYNESS!!

[Heib1]

An incredible take on the Breaking Benjamin title. You sir are a genius. I am in awe of your talent.

[MrMetalheadtildeath]

the piano makes this song very sad. but i think its better

[topdollarguy]

hey man, AMAZING, you reckon you can do a cover of 'So Cold' by Breaking Benjamins, I reckon you would do a fantastic job at it!!!!!

[UberMatTuck]

Perfect. You're very talentful.

[AWmusics]

I'm just sat here crying. That's how good you are. You've provoked emotion inside of me with your voice alone.... <3 <3

[Katelynmick]

AMAZING! <3

[Halfi3Dud3]

Gosh,ur my ídolo

[Shadowinchester]

I almost cried.

[LegendsofGH]

Incredible.

[NadineWegmann]

This is Awesome!

I've subscribed without watching another video!! =)

[RJacobs8907]

Cover more Breaking Benjamin!! You are awesome!!

[kate181294]

I ADORE you!!!!

[petuliiiChamic]

unbelievable voice..BIG LIKE ! :))))

[archerharm1]

wow, amazing.. I read somewhere that you recorded a song at peter gabriels studio, it would be awesome if you could cover here comes the flood from him. keep up the stunning work

[SoNotEmonescence]

I just fell in love with this cover! It's awesome! You have a really remarkable voice. I'm defiently suscribing. It's the best Breaking Benjamin cover I've heard. What key is your version of this song in?  I'm thinking of arranging another version of this song for a male and a female vocalist (that is, once I con my friend into singing it with me).

[briobrandon911]

i love how he made the song different.

[759759youtuification]

Wow , you just made this song better as its original version !

[Twall32]

it would be awesome if you did a cover for Iridencent- Linkin Park

[gavinmikhail]

@Twall32 funny you should say that, Twall... just did. :) Seriously, thanks for wanting to hear it. Just check out my channel and it's first or second in the covers playlist!

Gavin

[ProPivot17]

Hoooooly shit. Fuck man, that was one of the best things i may have ever heard. you just earned a subscriber with this video.

[ViiRaptor]

Brilliant cover! Very sensitive and even sexy covered, very touching.

[GumiBare1992]

That was such an amazing rendition of that song. Your voice is so beautiful. I know your a guy, and most guys are all about the masculinity; there's just no other way to say that. Everytime I listen to it I wanna cry, but in a good way ^.^

[pr0duckti0nz]

from 4:48 i was shocked.. wow

[infern01]

What a bloody massacre of a great song.

[Chaincow]

Fucking amazing man. Im really impressed.

[jakeriding53]

better than the original, and i'm a huge Breaking Benjamin fan

[BileeKitty]

Also, something about him reminds me of Neil Patrick Harris.. Anybody else getting that vibe? Maybe because it's that they're both freaking AMAZING. I love you both. :3 <3

[nickilynn94]

Absolutely beautiful. You turned a rock song into a ballad and did an amazing job. <3

[BileeKitty]

@nickilynn94

Couldn't agree more with this! God, I love this.. it's so beautiful. :3

[xlukeskywalkerBI]

GOD DAMN THATS AWESOME!!!! please do a cover of the Dear Agony album!

[RyanMarchWen]

how can there's no album for this guy?

I think this is the best cover I've ever heard..

[Valerie250388]

Amazin song to sing, Gavin! =) Need to cry now)))

[GazeAndOrphels]

moving, inspiring.

[thahendersons]

boring....ok voice



[russianshits]

The way the video was shot

[russianshits]

Does any else find this queer

?

[w101nerd039]

*Subscribed*

[MultiMusiclover1990]

Will you sing "forever and always" by Parachute? I think it would sound amazing in your key and it's a beautiful song

[TheCyprusX]

the most amazing rendition of the song yet. I am a hardcore BB fan , and I can tell you this is equal with the original version.

[thecassie99]

When breaking Benjamin sings this song, They have a more rock tone to it. But you sing it softly, in your own way, And I like it. It shows your creativity side. You have an amazing voice! Keep it up! Your voice puts a smile on my face :) The thing that confuses me is Justin Bieber is famous, And your a better singer.. Why arent you!? :)

[Zaidsameer115]

Ur voice is amazing I like it a lot

[KingdomLiz]

With all of the terrible covers on youtube... it's really refreshing to see someone with as much talent and passion as you have. Your work is beautiful. :) Thanks for sharing it with us.

<3 Liz

[slashshot10]

what is that queer-hole of justine dickhead doing in the suggestion videos?

[temporary142]

A friend bought me "Like Normal People Do", and I'm not going to lie... it's never turned off in my car. I tell just about everyone i know about how amazing you are, because they should know.

[cherry8279]

I LOVE YOU ♥ *-*

[sayouma1]

AMAZING !! <3 really beautiful and touching..

beter than the original <3 :DD

DAAMNNN !! LOVE YAAA <3 <3

[MultiAbdo111]

Amazing singing with a soft voice :-)

Good job dude

[KirkeySaurus]

damn... this was beautiful.

[SebbyAPX]

this was so amazing and touching!

so different form the original, just like you've made this song yours.

this was the most beautiful cover of this song i've ever heared.

just can't stop listening to your cover, and i hope it's ok if i download it into my ipod? :)

[MrSupermanloverr]

love this song

[imadude07]

I love this cover, but breaking benjamin is my favorite band,.. I just think you took away from the sincere, heart-wrenching moment that is the "give me a sign" part. You sang the back up vocals as well, and I couldn't feel the anguish that is someone begging, "Give Me A Sign".

[JoshNichols2011]

Song gives me chills!

[EmbeddedAudio]

amazing =)

[sasunarulab]

I just can't understand why Justin Bieber is famous and this guy is NOT.

[McCanziegirl]

@sasunarulab Because the people who like Justin Bieber do not look on his talent just on his look and appierience he is a curved handle boy without own style. He only does that what his manager says to him. Not more! and THIS GUY has talent. But it's hard to market him because much too less people like this unique and unusual music the people today buy Justin Bieber or Selena Gomez . Carsting Bullshit!! Only a few people knows to appreciate real music like the Beatles or THIS SONG !

[sasunarulab]

@McCanziegirl Yes, and that's so unfair. I once dreamed of becoming an artist. Then I realized that, even if I'm good at music, I'm not REALLY good. Then I listened to Justin Bieber and I thought I could do something -if he could, why couldn't I? And then (at last) I realized there´s so many talented people out there who deserve more and aren´t famous. So... Yeah, I still can´t understand why this guy doesn't have what he deserves.

[Shiek200]

@sasunarulab Because the media is a game of money, not talent. If this guy became famous, it would be as simple as a talent getting discovered and becoming famous. However, with JB, he's a very young kid, which makes him appeal to a large audience, albeit an ignorant one, and he is also what most would consider "adorable." (Ridiculous I know, but it's true) and that makes his audience larger. Now the media can manipulate him for their own profit. He's not a singer, he's a corporation's bitch.

[sasunarulab]

@Shiek200 you're right ;___;

[Shiek200]

@sasunarulab Unfortunately.....

[thetrueparadisecity]

@Shiek200 totally agree. the medias crazy that way. we would be better off if we had someone like Gavin who was famous who could sing about more important things than Bieber :p

[Shiek200]

@thetrueparadisecity In all honesty, Gavin would not be my first choice for becoming a hit. Not that he isn't great, and I truly enjoyed this cover, but my first choice would be Mattrach. He is just... talent personified..... I do agree with you though. if EVERY JB was replaced with Gavin, and Mattrach, modern music would be amazing today. :)

[MrMetalheadtildeath]

@sasunarulab becuase of mtv. thats why

[BrewForJad]

@sasunarulab The reason bieber is famous cause people like you mention him in every fucking video.Stfu about him & people will forget him..

[sasunarulab]

@BrewForJad that's not true. I hardly ever mention that boy. My sister is his "biggest fan nº1" and I'm fucking tired of listening to that noise every single day of my life, and when I try to put this kind of music she's all like, "TURN OFF THAT SHIT" and I have to shut up. It's how I feel about this. Many people abuse of his comercial name, but I don't, so watch what you say, please.

[anniebannanie143]

@sasunarulab I AGREE!!!! i've loved gavin for awhile and i just cant understand why he isnt famous!!!!

[boombenjasiri]

you make me cry...

[darklink401]

I am speechless.

When I first clicked, I didn't expect a soft ballad version to be as good as the original, despite it being by you, Gavin (the best cover artist on YT, as well as one of the best musicians of today, IMO) But....wow, this blew me away. Once again, your voice and individual rhythm win life <3

[Angela020202]

i love the way you sing this song, it's wonderful i just keep on replaying it every time it ends

seriously, love it!!! i hope you keep singing like you always do :)

[MacSkateTheatere14]

Wow man best cover i have Ever heard of this song you are a Genious!!!!!

[monkeyc]

gave me goosebumps

[DannyShredable]

this is beautiful.

[Ezmeraldee]

This is the most amazing thing i have ever heard

[glenmatthewsmusic]

beautiful version dude, only one critisicm. Try and EQ your voice to cut out some of the harsh 'S' and 'K's cos it detracts from the excellent vocal.

[Rynnnx]

This is amazing man ... but I really want to see you sing more loudly, not that I don't like calm music, I love it, but I think you would turn out even more amazing =)

[reihtop87]

It's so beautifull ! You make miracle with your covers <3

[Ramieloving]

AAAAAAAAAA!!!! I'm your fan!!!!

[a7xsongs69]

its seriously like you found my favorite songs and covered them all for me xD these covers are awesome, keep it up man

[MisterFallout]

You have a god given talent, keep up the great work.

[MinyM123]

You made love this song even more ....

[shadow21491]

amazing! i love it

[marfrex9]

buen cover

[kuroryutama]

I'll keep you alive if you show me the way. <3

[sheberly]

Yep, sounds completely original and down right amazing. So talented! This is the direction the song should have went in the first place I think, its more of a slow smooth ballad type song I think.

[nemac3]

Man....no words..kudos to you,just plain old beatiful!!!!

[Silverblood9]

Oh My Gosh! a Breaking Benjamin cover! You are awesome my friend.

[chazilla1]

awesome cover bro. its always great to come on here and see such great talent. this is why i love youtube. you should try playing three days grace or three doors down. both bands are awesome and lyrics in there songs just hit home alot. again ur awesome keep up the great work and keep bringing class to youtube.

[Ians111]

Gavin I really like the way you make each song your own i am a singer and understand how difficult it is to not try and re create the original versions and I have to say you are probably the only singer on YouTube that is individual. Best wishes from the UK..

[latino13x3]

O.o,

[EvilEmoX]

I can hear the voice so close, tender and clear like you're right here whispering in my ear!

So beautiful and inspirational :')

Thank you for posting this video

[ThraxxMedia]

THIS! Is. So. Amazing!

It not only blew my mind in a whole, but also... made me listening to this song over and over and over and over and over an.............. <3 (I'm not gay!)

[almostjuice18]

Incredible job dude, from one BB fan/ musician to another, major props.

[slangtand]

This is a good start, it gives a new perspective to BB. But I think the voice should be faster and more ... passionate ...

[bleeding2death]

too slow!!!!

[ARiceFan17]

my heart officially broke when i heard this song covered by you, Gavin. I have never cried over a song before, but you have moved me that much, its indescribable. I only hope that someday people recognize how worthy you are to the music industry. You are amazing and so talented, Your brutal honesty and intensity is so rare and beautiful. I will forever be a fan, Thank you Gavin.

[DeDe2044]

ma devi andare a vendere il pesce

[MrSimpleDesign]

Seriously? why do people dislike this video? i don't see a thing wrong. its a perfect cover...people these days...

[icecue7]

@MrSimpleDesign They probably expected the cover to sound exactly like BB's original. :(

[brachium22]

love this song, downloaded it on itunes and have not stopped listening. You should think about covering Lost In You by Three Days Grace, your voice would work really well in that song..

[lltmoon]

:') this is soooo amazing. dude i want you in my movies!!!!

[21jooj]

I think my heart is dislocated now .. that's how much u moved me ;)

[Microice80]

This is just so nice!!!

So D@MN different from the original...gud job! =)

[lily455]

I TOTALLY CRIED!!! How can that be played so perfectly!! You're just amazing. You deserve to be famous or something (:

[maayanofri]

It's very different from the original, but it's just exciting !!!!!!!

I love it!

[DANYmyspace1]

simply sublimate 

[blackened55]

Well, that's the way how you put your HEART in the music.

[MySilentDreamer]

Does anyone know where I can download this songs sheet music for piano? I've looked everywhere, but cant seem to find it. I would love to be able to play it

[icecue7]

@MySilentDreamer Check his website. There's a link to some website in his faq. I think he said all the sheet music was uploaded there.

[gavinmikhail]

@MySilentDreamer Thank you so much for saying that! You can get the piano tutorial/karaoke/instrumental tracks at ezkeys (dot) net and can print the sheet music from the piano tutorial track itself using any MIDI software.

Thanks again. I hope you're doing great...

[OutCry97]

Every time I listen to you sing, I feel so calm. You have an amazing voice and this song makes me cry it's so beautiful. I love all your covers more than the originals and all your own songs are awesome too. I really want to start a career as a musician and you've inspired me to keep at the piano and stick with my dreams

Thanks

Zoe x

[demonicangel22]
