Kiss From A Rose (Acoustic)

[colimorxyz]

your hair says "i'm a douche" but your sound says the opposite

[Fransexo1313]

Good Playing and Really good voice nice and Smooth!

[dolochan]

Beautiful performance!

i hear "Barara rara..." the intro,

Bara means Rose in Japanese, you know? :D

[bassemfsabry]

Jerry, this is by far the best innovative chord arrangement and solo performance to singing for this song! Just soft enough, original enough, faithful enough. Your voice has a good base, but the execution of your singing needs refinement in certain areas. People were right when they thought you sounded non-native in your English. You sounded a bit Czech. But the music is beautiful, and that middle passage is insanely good.

[GuitarSurfgirl1]

beautiful voice!!!!<3

[seventang77]

quite a few covers of this on Youtube but you are killing even the "classical" guys out there--they are simply too mechanical and stiff + chording somewhat uninspired. otoh your chord selection is off the charts *brilliant* and your execution--truly musical. this was 3 freaking years ago. what must you sound like now...

[jhndqn]

hello,, whats the tuning of your guitar.. is it DADGAD

[alwayslistening4444]

@jhndqn Hi there. The guitar is in standard tuning. I love listening to pieces composed with alternate tunings, but try to stay away from them myself simply because they can change my intuition of the layout of the neck.

[jhndqn]

hello,, whats the tuning of your guitar.. is it DADAD

[Sowyet]

u are stupid "ararara para" hahahahahaha

[TheAmazingScotsman]

@Sowyet Shh please, this is a great version.

[polvergara]

Definitely the best cover, been looking for a lot of cover of this song and I always go back to this. Great cover

[nice3ck]

hehehe this guys looks like jerry seinfield..

[zenmastermatt]

Strange, your cadence and pronounciation is very unique. I definitely thought that english was not your first language. Your chord positions, the whole arrangement really, is quite interesting. Well done.

[AcousticDiscoMetal1]

great job. do you have tabs by any chance?

[alandeanavery]

I'd really like to see you multitrack this so you can concentrate more fully on your vocals (it's always a compromise to sing and play).

[Hunniebunndoll]

Very soothing, you have a very nice voice =]

[brunocasara]

nice video my friend congratulations from brazil

[bakamund]

Nice interpretation =]

[RyuAthlete]

thereeeee used to beee a GREAT TOWEL on the sea : 'D

[no1smilah]

Hey dude... Well done, nice rendition.. Ignore the people taking the piss! Music is open to interpretation by anyone so hey if thats how u wanna play then play! However i gotta say try working on your diction. Its really important with this track especially as the lyrics are so deep, try connecting with lyrics, close ur eyes even! But well done :)

[piratechick818]

You have an amazing voice, keep doing what you're doing!!! **two thumbs up** Beautiful!!!

[hyugakarn]

Yo JD! you hit the notes just right man! And your notes hit great too :)

Peace out man.

[BIgasscockmuncher]

haha thats fucked up

its good tho i liike it

[RyuAthlete]

there used to be a towel on the sea? wtf

man, try to do this sober, aparantly crack is not working for you ,

damn how the fuck did a crackhead floaty hippy figure out to get to youtube

[Blo0dThirst]

@RyuAthlete Clean your ears mother fucker! this is his accent it's not about the lyrics.

[niggstopher]

@RyuAthlete the same way an asshole smack talker like you figured out how to sign up with an account. only the difference this guy shows talent and you show the rest of youtube that you'v got two assholes, a second one where your mouth should be hahaha

[RyuAthlete]

@niggstopher hatefull son of a bitch, talking about multiple assholes , i know your mother.  once every 30 days we stop at her assholes and choose a magic one for 40 hours of intence mutilation

[stirchabis]

great voice..

[Kalista0]

very nice :)

[oppale666]

Dont listen to these bad comments.You got it right bro.This song has to be sweet and smooth and you give it.Your guitar play is very sweet too, you put emotions in your play.Thats exacly what it takes. Its your own way, but your voice miss a litlle confidence sometimes and get intimidated by your guitar play.This being said its very good.

[crazyoveradamlambert]

ahh, finally a much more sweeter rendition of this song. It was a little pitchy, but nonetheless, very original ^___^

[harrisonlowe1]

Nice version ... go check my version out it has balls and beauty : )

[MrLycan111]

Nice One!

[AranvalNightshadow]

Sounds proper, but otherwise its lame. It feels somehow like those medival singers with no balls... Really, you sing it in so weak way that you destroy this song. Really bad rendition.

[ipodchik]

lol, that's really kinda mean... but I see what you're saying. I still think he did good though :3

[mediageneration65]

Yeah but its his own if you know what I mean.

[earnesthope]

very smooth... beautiful

[anjaneai]

too good brother ... awesome!

[heltaskelta32]

I fucking LOVE THIS MAN...listening to it now for the 3rd time :-) well done man, sick rendition love it

[cp30303]

good but weak....

[heltaskelta32]

its his own rendition its real good, difference i love it

[HKfan94]

really smooth

[busabunimalfredo]

Well done Jerry Seinfield!

[1990zeab]

dude, i was sad the whole day, and now u made my night

great job

[NewSignatureE]

amazing...

[cedric11100]

YOU, DUDE, Are SMOKIN I asked my girlfriend on this song

[sacan1]

splendid. how many girlfriends have you gotten with this.

i usually sing along with this song but i didnt want to ruin it! nice improv!

[Arkannah]

Impressive O_O I've fallen in love with the softness of your voice flowing so naturally with the acoustic music you create . Pure emotion to it. Keep up your marvellous work ^_^

[hypNOTiseMEe]

an absolutely virtuoso performance .. well done

[donnachung1]

PUREST tone and easy range in the voice; love the acoustic accompaniment too...and what a microphone too! On so many levels, this is brilliant. I'd like you to breath a bit deeper to send the voice out on some of the melismas. What an impressive musician. - Donna

[Idrink2muchsunslop]

lefty

[Irondeath0]

es zurdo :)

[alwayslistening4444]

Hey everyone, thanks for all of the feedback. Just to comment on some of the reoccurring comments:

I don't have any tabs for this. Sorry:(

English is my first language.

Yes my hair is pretty...Kramer-meets-Borat-li­ke :) Definitely a naughty mess when grown out.

Yes, definitely room for improvement in the department of vocal energy and punch on certain parts.

Other than that, I've really enjoyed stopping by a lot of your channels and watching your art. Now back to music!!

Peace

[Redsiix]

what about chords to point us to the right direction?

[caNiBe3]

@alwayslistening4444 i think you have the talent, you should show up at the X-Factor - it should get you to the finals. Just show up with the same hair, thats a cool style you have there! ... you can sing!

[AnneMarieLaque]

your uber-talented. i like it!!

[Chomplex]

fantastic voice and guitar play!

[blurredmemory]

great!

[wulkanzer]

So calm)

[bertoxalisk]

I don't care for how his voice sounds. He's not flat or anything, I just don't like it. the guitar is great, though.

[godflowdorian]

is this guy deaf ?

[brachisaurous]

why do you say that godflow ?

[godflowdorian]

his voice ..

[coletiger]

Fabulous my friend, absolutely fabulous!

[CuriousGeorge53142]

haircut?

[lshidda]

Its JD from Scrubs!!!

[nurelkamash]

@lshidda no from 3rd rock from the sun

[Wandoquirino]

Que bosta!!!!!!!!!!

[Glockenheimer]

I agree, he has a great range and pitch to his voice, but he has an accent or lisp makes it less perfect for singing this song..at least in English. I am not making fun, I have speech problems myself and can't sing at all.

[YeorRecneps]

your lisp is unfortunate, your voice would be perfect for this song without it.

[ElCervezaMuchacho]

Since I'm pretty sure you're just some pasty-white fat kid, whose lack of friends and any other kind of social life has pushed you to ridicule anyone who you deem better than you at anything, you shouldnt be talking.

[YeorRecneps]

on the contrary my retarded friend, His voice is bang on, I simply implied that his lisp wrecked the perfectionism in his singing, everything else was bang on.

[issu999]

wow interesting cover!!

[djmichaelcolucci]

I enjoy it. great voice

[BATPOD84]

bravo

[AngelEyess1]

oké he's good but his hair is so bad

[taxidermisto]

[chilkari]

Great. Love the half-step dissonances in the guitar voicing. Glad its slow enough to let the chord voicings sink in. Beautiful.

[lingwoodkempo]

ignore them there idiots, it was beautiful and soulfull, exactly what seal is all about!!

[boomsmack1]

They're** Nice one...idiot.

[wabler12345]

that sucks...you need way more energy...

sounded boring...and it was too slow...

this song is way too hard for you :)

[AnymouseLCFL]

there's no power in his singging no bad playing or singing but no emotion so that sucks

[Kombinerki909]

hmm?

german?

[allanfelipebr]

What's the accent? the "r" ?

[trishkellytrishkelly]

[lintball0190]

[grablifebytheballs]
