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.
@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.
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
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.
@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!!!!!
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.
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
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?
wow. This is great. I've been wanting to cover this song for awhile, but you just did it so well I don't know how to come close to that. I might try in the future anyway...heh heh. Awesome job though man, you deserve 5 stars. Lets keep the music alive!
that was simply amazing. this is probably one of the best covers of a song that i've seen. it does it so much justice. great playing, great singing. definitely subscribing!
this is the second best performance next to Glens himselfs ... you got skill bro... cant wait to hear your other videos. P.S whats the second chord you play in the Intro/Verse?
Brilliant cover! You completely made the song your own. I love Glen Hansard, he is one of my all time favorites, and this absolutely does him justice! Well done!
i dont know if youve heard of a UK band called starsailor but when u sing your chest notes you sound just like their lead singer!! fantastic mate, perfect in every way! =)
Its obvious you really think about the songs you are singing and its born out in the quality of the perfomance. Soulful performance of a song written by 'THE Man'. Props
I fell in love with this cover. This song is so beautiful and moving and you definitely captured that. I'm subscribing. I also LOVED your covers of Such Great Heights and Lovesong. Can't wait to see even more!
Beautiful, Great, Wonderful!! Sick!! Always great Alain. :)
