i think you did well on the guitar, though some of the single notes should be a little stronger between the slide. also, i just feel like your voice is a little flat in some parts. but you did really well!
Wow... great job! I'm learning this song myself... it's definitely challenging. I love how you added your own little bit to the song. It truly sounds great!
im a intermediate guitar player and this was my first finger plucking song i learned lots of fun to play but is a little challenging until u hear the parts and it all comes together
You seem like a very talented musician and have a totally righteous beard but i have to say i don't like the guitar in this interpretation. The singing is spot on but i think the single string slide from the C to the D gets really repetitive. It also gets overpowering and takes away from the vocals. The guitar part is meant to be mellow so it doesn't clash with the singing.
I agree.....i really dislike this cover. I didnt really take the time to learn that proper slide....but oh well cant win them all. Thanks for the Constructive criticism though.....tis the only way to improve.
Great cover, this song is hard on the fingers man. So is the beard a work in progress as well haha it suits this song. every time i play mr. beam i feel like i should grow a beard.
excuse my french but "fuck" all these dumbasses who don't know what real talent is nor understand how good music is constructed, I think you did an amazing job, you have ALOT of talent, don't let these kind of people keep you from doing what you want to do, recording sound good with a little reverb anyways..... keep up the good work
I listened to your stuff on myspace.....and you have seriously have no right to be commenting on others abilities to play music(or voice for that matter)because you dont possess the talent to critique others work my friend. You seem to be young. You will mature and find that leaving comments like the one you left me is about as queer as a tennis helmet.
and i dont have a problem with people critiquing what I do. I have a problem with people like you who go around youtube just to insult people. If your gunna comment on someones music why not make it constructive.
I apologize if I have offended you, I was a bit hasty in my wording and I realize that. However, I refuse to continue pandering to a childish internet argument. If you're content with personal attacks on people who disagree with you, then I'm hardly your biggest problem.
exactly right. i'm sure jimski123 can accept constructive criticism, which most people should be able to handle; but it should not be tolerated when flat out insults are thrown carelessly around.
I really like this, a little different touch on the guitar, I would think thats harder than you you make it appear, again I've never hear this before, but that just makes it all the more interesting, and better, Thanks, I'll be back!
you suck! I actually wanted to do this as the colab, no kidding. I even started recording it to send you an example in case you hadn't heard it. I'm using a panasonic gs320 with adobe premiere and audacity for post production. I'll go back to the drawing table unless you have a suggestion. nice job as always on this one. loser.
that was just horrible. and look what kind of person that made you like. a complete asshole. I hope someone says that about you when your trying to do something good.
jimskiiii nice one dude!! i agree with zzzzzap nice camera work, your wife is good too you haha anyway nice music room =] cant wait for more videos dude. Keep it smooth.
What a pick up.. I'm off work ill today but now I'm so glad so I can keep checking this out (deffo going in the faves)! Everything is so pure about this Jimski and well worth the wait - the camera work is so naturalistic and your performance is spot on.. spot on!! Well worth the wait. Now to work on Eleanor Rigby! haha. Peace
yes my lovely wife filmed this one for me....thanks alot for the comments kris....im glad you liked it. I cant wait for Eleanor Rigby....I was listening to it in the car today and thought to myself that you could nail this one. So hope your day off goes well my friend...im actually off to work...so good day.
Love it! And congrats on the music room. Who did your camera work? Can't wait till I have my own official music room. Well done on the song as well; when can we expect some more jimski originals?
well I think im done with covers for the most part....for a while atleast. I really need to write more so if i stop covering stuff then all i can do is put up new material...so thats the plan stan. as always thanks for the comment man.
Nice job man! Check out my version with my loop station!
