  • This is great. Absolutely great. It's different from Glen's, but it's still good. This is beautiful. And you are beautiful.

    your emotion... wow, your emotion is really powerful.

    You have talent.

  • I love this it's amazing!

  • amazing.

  • This is phenominal. Terrific job, not many people can pull off Glen's songs. This was fantastic.

  • 2.45 :-O Awesome !! goosebumbs !!!

  • you're amazing. i just bought your CD on itunes after watching just two of your videos. i love your simplicity and your beautiful voice. if you have a chance, check out guitarislife920...he's younger than you, but just starting out and you have a similar taste in music.

  • wtf is this glen is way better when glen says leave he actually means it and puts somuch soul into it but its like a song people shuldnt cover

  • @TheRoyaladdiction No offense, just stating my opinion, but I'm pretty sure anyone can mean it when they sing these lyrics or any lyrics for that matter. That's what music is.

  • fantastic

    

  • I'd love to know the chords! and since I can't play the guitar I can't read them from what you're playing. I also can't find them on the internet. If you find some time would you be so sweet to send them to me in a message? Keep up the good work, this was totally awesome. I love it. And the film. <3

  • THAT WAS AWESOME!

  • Comment removed

  • Too SLOW! (no rudeness inteded)

    Speed it up a little, and it'll be awesome! :)

  • You are beauty.

  • woww. this is just beautiful.

  • Hey man

    comes really close to the original but still your own version...nice! hey if you got the time...check out my video :)!

    have a good one

  • Beautiful... great, natural presence and tone. :)

  • good version

  • This is my favourite version... just beautiful.

  • Wow, that was unbelievable!

  • This is incredible, i absolutely love your cover! it's amazing :)

  • You've got a mad voice. keep it up.

  • I'm very impressed by this cover. As a long time admirer of Glen Hansard and a musician, I can say with confidence that his music is not easy to play or sing. It's incredible stuff, and it's all relatively sophisticated or demanding in some way. He puts a lot into every song. So it is significant to me to see someone execute such a representative and fulfilling cover as yours.

    Thanks for posting. I look forward to watching the rest of your videos.

  • This is the best cover of any song I've heard in quite some time. I've been searching for a decent one for a while, but this absolutely blew me away, coming from another musician. Every aspect of this cover was perfect.

    And, you are a beautiful man.

  • oh my god! that was...(if the word is permitted) Fucking awesome dude!...

  • Pretty sure that was the sexiest thing Ive ever seen. Amazing... good work!

  • Nice work Pal! Really good cover! Nice Guitar! Best of luck with your music career!

  • WOW. I'm floored.

  • Yup I just downloaded this mp3 at mp3thatvid..net

  • am totally blown away great cover of a great song loved your sensitivity vocals and guitar and you are sooooo cute dam so unfair too much talent :P

  • Best damn cover since your ''show me a little shame''...awesome music man!

  • @humanoids yeah sorry.. yeah i love Glen's version also but i also think this is one of the best Glen covers i have ever seen!!! and in the process fond Alain de Courtenay Music!!!!!

  • How I wish I could sing like that :(

    Good work man!

  • *Goosebumps* your voice is so incredibly gorgeous!!!

  • Really amazing...thank you for this...

  • Excellent work mate..i work with the lads and this is a great version..

  • beautiful......any plans on another CD? I've got all the songs off iTunes.

  • Excellent cover of a brilliant song!!! You're awesome. =)

  • @Humanoids you dont think he ment to slow the pace down.. come on man think about what you say befor you write down something dumb

  • @mozambique69

    jesus, but this pace just seems too slow. he could've took it to get a certain feel for himself, but I would've never changed it. also some musicians tend to take the rhythm at a faster or slower pace without realising it.

  • i love this song. job well done, you sound great.

  • the pace I think is a bit faster, other than that you fuckin' aced it.

  • @Humanoids i think he meant to make it slightly slower :]

  • @paintseamusyellow

    yeah, I guess, but for me the song will always be in the original pace. I mean, I understand, cause I've taken songs at slower pace to get the " feel" and what not, it's just weirder for me when I hear others doing it, I guess.

  • @Humanoids yeah i know what you mean,im the same, with some dubstep remix's where they change beat 1 and its faster/slower it just feels all wrong! :D

  • well,you're pretty good at that.keep training,maybe sometime you will be another glen hansard:P

  • this was great 10/10 bro nice voice and nice playing

  • Dude....holy shit

  • wow..i have nothing more to say

  • At first I wasn't impressed. Then yo reached he yelling/screaming part... and I teared up and had chills throughout the rest.. seriously. I could NOT move. I was so.. floored. Dude wow. Can I shake your hand?

  • Best cover on youtube. I Liked how you slowed it down and added a lot of emotion to it. Very nice work.
