  • wow. what a great job on this song! nice work, man!

  • I listen to this everyday.

  • This really quite good. Thank you for doing one of my favorite songs justice! Well done!

  • GREAT JOB!

  • Incredible job. I really love what you did with this rhythmically, and stellar job on the solo. My wife and I just posted a version of this song that we've cooked up in the past few days. I invite you to come to our channel and have a listen if you like. I can't wait to go look at your other videos!

  • what does " we both dove and rose to the riverside" mean ? sr i come from a different country so don't understand

  • @gvrshenlong i could be totally wrong here, but i think it means roughly: "we both jumped (dove) into a river and swam to the edge." hope that helps.

  • you are a gem. I've been watching your videos all night. Your talent is overwhelming :)

  • This is impressive. 

  • this is freakin awesome!!!

  • great cover!!!!!!

  • I hope you have a good deal with a record company. cause your a very talented singer! Well done :)

  • First time I've ever heard this song. Very nicely done...

  • you are a jack johnson duplicate, in a good way.

  • This is beautiful. You have a fantastic voice :)

  • wow man. amazing. I love iron and wine and this song specially. amazing amazing cover. i wish i had your voice.

  • okay. that was beautiful but in the description he has the link for the tabs but the tabs have really easy dumb chords with the capo on the second. he's playing like crazy with it on the sixth.

  • @GrantTheeGreat it's the same chord shapes as in the link, just capoed wherever i did it.

  • @chsswntsjck: i would love to hear you cover "boy with a coin" also  :^)

  • I there anywhere i can get a tab to this? It AMAZING

  • @EricaJCoburn it's in the description.

  • I really enjoyed this. Would you share your fingering for the banjo part you played on the guitar?

  • OMGod. You are awesome. :-)

  • you have a lovely voice :D

  • i tried to incorporate the solo into the rest of the guitar parts, but it sounds really poopy.

    could you possibly make a tab up for the solo part? its super awesome.

  • awesome. very sweet. big Iron and Wine fan. ck my my cover of trapeze swinger

  • This is brilliant! Such a refreshing originality to the way you play it. I'm speechless.

  • This is one hell of a song to take on to try and cover, and you did an extraordinary job.

    Very awesome work

  • this is top notch. I can play the song kind of but I have no idea how to do the solo while keeping the melody going. thumbs up.

  • amazing.

  • Good job indeed! I have seen Sam live and you truly did him justice.

  • nice!

  • you really nailed it man, great voice an everything...  ahhhhhhh

  • I've been picking alternate bass lines for years with my thumb and finger, I think I've been doing it wrong you just use your thumb which seems simpler... Is this Travis picking?? Gonna practice tonight

  • I love this song. Great job! Have you thought of playing some Ray LaMontagne?

  • was thinkin the saaaame thing haha

  • Do you have a black eye?

  • every detail is perfect. so well done.

  • i just found this and wanted to let you know how beautiful this cover is. I'm a huge Iron & Wine fan and lost my best friend and boyfriend earlier this summer. This song really has gotten me through some tough times, thanks for making me smile today :)

  • hahaha

    I told you, you make great faces when you sing (:

    little sister knows best.

    oooh have you done boy with a coin?

    oh and don't forget about goodmorning heartache.

  • what faces? no, only this iron and wine. did you ever find me the chords for the good morning heartache thing?

  • you are amazing. The BEST cover i've seen ever.

  • jesus christ, you're a gift.

  • the fingerpicking is perfect  man

  • This is one of my favorite songs, you did fantastically. But... your face while singing it is... well it's just awesome to say the least.

  • That was fantastic. how did you do the banjo part in the middle while you played? the tab you posted is nice but your version is much much better. If you have time i would love to see how you do it!

  • your left eyebrow is awesome.. it moves up and down with each vocal change.. its the peoples brow

  • wow dude.. just wow

  • This is an amazing cover. You rocked my socks off.

  • Best cover of this song I've seen, by far. It's not the easiest song to play either. Hell of a job all around.

  • love..love..love your voice!!!!!!!

  • awesome job... I like that song! :)

  • this is RIDICULOUSLY GOOD!! i have listened to it AT LEAST 15 times in a row today

  • i've been listening to your songs for 3 hours now, and it's amazing! surreal...your voice and the guitar...you rock!

    thank you, you've made my day :)

  • Jesus mate, you are stunning without even trying. Wish I could see you perform in a small venue. UK?

  • i am absolutely in love with this. I would really love to sing the harmonies to this and record it. :) Could I do that?

  • sure. knock yourself out. (:

  • this is great man, I did one, not this good, but check it out if you get a chance.

  • this is my favorite cover! please watch mine, and tell me what you think

  • Great cover...you nailed it. You should def consider doing a cover of "The Trapeze Singer" by Iron and Wine. It fits your voice.

  • this is beyond amazing... :)

  • to the riverside, oh oh oh oh riverside :) greetings from portugal/slovakia/world... that riverside touched me because i'm watching the danube as i'm watching this, and i'm drunk also.. come one! hugs to you my friend

  • sublime !!!!!!

    Thanks for sharing.

  • OMG

    this is so good.

  • Amazing.

  • damn dude. you're the truth.

  • Wonderful job man! I hope someday I can sing a 10th as good as you.

  • Oh you did cover Iron & Wine! Fantastic!

  • you have a really nice voice. Good cover. was really great.

  • you've got some swarthy latin charm, my friend

  • Dude this is amazing. Your voice sounds like either Simon or Garfunkel.

  • Great job!

  • You are amazing. Thanks for being my inspiration to start playing again.

  • greeat cover!!!!!!!! i love your voice!!

  • I didn't think I would ever say this to anyone, ever, but your cover, in my opinion, is better than the original. Sam Beam would be proud.

  • I was debating myself about this but it actually is better, but the fact that sam wrote it just makes his better, but still this is a really amazing cover, i mean really wonderfull, you do sing it better.

  • absolutely amazing job man, i really loved this

  • you really do this justice.. i love this song. it always makes me cry.

  • WOW! Love this song one of my all time favorites. GREAT JOB! I had to watch it twice. It was so good.

  • uhhh youtube's comment page is unpredictable... my previous message was directed at

    PhilomathBret's ridiculous statements. hopefully no one get's the wrong message, cuz this man is an amazing musician.

  • Wow! Very well done on this particular song.. the guitar work beautiful and I Love your voice!

    Thanks for posting..

  • wow this is amazing!

  • you have a gift, man.

  • best cover of any song i've heard on youtube

  • DUDe im a big fan of iron and wine got all the cds. but thats beside the point u have a great voice and great timeing , thats the best cover of each coming night ive ever hud . much love From pankey. good luck

  • i LUV this song that was great

  • I've never commented on ANY Youtube video before. And I've been a member for well over a year now. So this is a first.

    Where can I download an audio version of this cover? This is amazing. Sam Beam would be proud! I LOVE! So much! :D

  • That was positively wonderful man! Sam would have to be impressed. I had to rip the audio and add it to my music library.

    To the Phil douche beneath me:

    Obviously you have no musical taste whatsoever. Just because this music is not blaring loud like the trash that is pumped over mainstream airwaves does not mean it is not worth your time. I love extreme metal but on the other side of the spectrum there is wonderful mellowness such as this that also deserves a listen from a willing ear.

  • wow. gtfo.

  • best cover yet.

  • very nice....this is rednecklvr from pitbull

  • Love how you played the solo. 5/5

  • thank you daniel. very amazing and inspiring. i added it to my facebook for all my friends to see :)

    <3

  • This is beautiful.

  • wow, this is amazing.

  • wow... i mean FUCK man this is seriously the best cover i've ever heard of this song.

  • man, you've got the voice of a folk hero. you must get so much tail. don't lie to me

  • not at all. you'd be very disappointed.

  • i'm adding you to my favorites, your voice is gorgeous!

  • yup, in the favourites u go;)

    hehe i actually sing along with it so all is good :p

  • Seriously awesome, I doubt these ratings are gonna go below 5 stars any time soon.

  • truly a great cover!

  • beautiful voice, Great job

  • i must say, if there was a such thing as a "play count" for youtube, you would be my number one!! Honestly.. you play it better than Sam himself. Thanks for inspiring :)

  • great!

    i like iron&wine!

    could u send the score to me by email?thanks a lot!

  • Time slows down when you sing this song. I felt like I'd been listening for 5min atleast and you weren't even half way through. Spectacular job and a charming sound. 11/10

  • Thing with most Iron and Wine covors is that the Guitar playing is good... But then the singing is rather.."meh". THIS HOWEVER, was in a league of its own.. thoroughly enjoyed it

  • beautiful. great voice and guitar, i like how you implemented the banjo solo on the guitar. keep it up!

  • Great job

  • i was expecting this to be funny. i really like it though, and i'm pretty critical when it comes to sam beam covers. do you have any original stuff?

  • That was FANTASTIC: great guitar work, perfect voice for this song. I'm feel bad saying, i may like it better than the original.

  • Great voice; very passionate. Very skilled and precise playing.

    Very very lovely.

    Reminds me of a certain someone.

  • man that was great....

  • This is a great cover and my favorite, but I still can not figure out the solo after the third verse with the high E. I found a close match on a tab site, but I'm new to finger picking so I am having trouble filling in the in between stuff during the solo before the last verse. Also I don't really like the slow down in the original version so I play it with the main tempo. Thanks! :)

  • beautiful!

    this would get me into bed for sure.

  • amen.

  • this is so beautiful i love this song and you do a great job. beautiful voice as well. you can come sing me to bed tonight :-)

  • Surreal. The voice is flawless.

  • simply AMAZING, one of the best iron and wine covers i've heard.

  • You have to have someone who is offering you a record deal, don't you? If not, do you think that putting some original songs on here would help you? Another you-tuber, Marie Digby, has signed a contract with a record label. Rolling Stone magazine had a small article on you-tube recently and featured her in it. She did a rendition of Umbrella and she had a huge number of views. She's good, but I think you're better. She has some original songs (which are very good) on you-tube.

  • WOW

    Great playing and great singing.

    I really enjoyed it.

  • What are the chords of the part you improvised between the last two couplets? i like it

  • i've watched this a couple of times again, and i'm still not sure what you're talking about. possibly an f to a g? 103000 to 305000?

  • This is great!

  • Everytime that I listen to this, I cry. This song moves me in more ways than I ever thought possible, and I never thought that I would ever say this, but your version is even BETTER than the original.
