[BensTunes101]

Loved it man great playing and singing! :) 1 quick question... How did you record this like what program and mic. Thanks :D

[foxyfer01]

AWESOME JOB!

TUTORIAL PLS!!!!!

[SkylightDemiseBand]

Brilliant cover man!

Nicely done vocals too!

Check out our FULL BAND rock version of this song on our channel!

Hopefully we've done it some justice!

[killerhobo97]

Woah sounds freaky cool with earphones on but the audio being on right only is annoying

[Randerion]

@tubmac thx ;)

[smokedmonkeys]

please please people. this is not Jose cover, please follow traditional artist tradition. this song was written and performed almost ten years ago by a band called The Knife. Jose was inspired by them...shouldnt you atleast honor the original artist like Jose did, if you respect his riff?

[Randerion]

@tubmac nice vid ! what mic do you use ?? nice sound

[TubMac]

@Randerion,

Studioproject, the B-1.

Thanks for the compliment.

[MaximumProductionz]

Sounds like you could have sung it with the capo by the way your singing, but nice one anyway :)

[xEloiseKerryx]

love the guitaring, beats mine haha, check out my cover if you have time? much appreciated

[ivorymoonlight]

lovely, your right its very hard to sing and play this at the same time!!!! good job :)

[ryanhavinga]

you need the capo on the 1st fret then shit everything up a fret and then its the same and jose gonzalez plays it! :)

[TheR0cX]

[matebary]

[haeunnn]

I love it! great job!

[s1dblack]

just brilliant...

[terrifictif]

this is great!

[shivi1234]

i dont like the lyrics rly i thought you sounded a bit monotone

[raeesally9]

good vocals mate :)

[vicrimes]

Really 'folky' edge to it. Nicely done:-)

[mrvlhs]

I think it is very very good

[CwalkinZoom]

the voice is not edited, i think he just recorded the vocals seperated from the guitar part. it gives a better sound quality in the end, to the result is just awesome!

one thing i have to say is that youve put the voice ballance to the right side, i hear the vocals on the right hand only

[Dwar75]

very good!! ;)

[kevpreston]

Thanks so much for taking the time to send through the tuning, your a gentleman. thanks.

[tremoloheart]

What's that guy mean, "you have edited your voice" ? Tell me how you edited it! What kind of equipment is required. It sounds wonderful. It seems to me that there's only so much editing that can be done. You have to have something to start with. Your voice has to be at least on key right? I'm one who is also a little indimidate with my voice and shy about it. Anyway, thanks for posting. I love it.

[TubMac]

@tremoloheart,

I think he means that I recorded the vocals separately. I did this 'cause I only have one good mic. If you want to record vocals and guitar at the same time you'll need two mics. Further I used some echo and a standard vocal compressor, but that's nothing special, it is used all the time on every record you listen to.

I use Garageband on my Mac, an easy to use audio editing program, since I'm a n00b in that aria :-).

[kevpreston]

anyone know where i can see how to tune my guitar into that? DADF#BE

[TubMac]

@kevpreston,

You'll only need to adjust two strings compared to a normal tuned guitar. The easiest way is to do it in this order:

1.Tune down the 4th/G string a half step. It will have to sound the same as the 4th fret on the 3rd/D string.

2.Then the 1st/E string needs to be tuned down a whole step, so then there's an octave between the 1st string and the 3rd (both become a D).

That's it!

[AlanMagner]

@TubMac Do you mean the 3rd and 6th strings?? Normal tuning is eadgbe with the 1st e being the 6th string!!

[TubMac]

@AlanMagner

Just check the tab out that I wrote, it will become clear to you then. You can finf the link to it in the info section of the video.

GL!

[klasse2bub]

@kevpreston chromatic tuner maybe? =)

[sparksy1008]

dont care if its not together just watchin ur hands n listnening is great, good job!!

[mynameislotti]

this video deserves more views than it has...my favourite cover of this song on youtube by a country mile :)

[msfattytroll]

Guitar playing is spot-on and the vocals are very fitting for this song

a very well done and faithful rendition, you should be proud of yourself

[MrDots311]

what tab did you use for this cause the ones im using aint as good as yours

[mouthmantube]

awesome mate! only problem is it's so much nicer on a nylon string. do that and you've nailed it through

[manonmoon13]

Heartbeats is the greatest song I ever heard, and you just made it even better. Amazing man, big thumbs up!

[Saydang]

your vocal track is only coming through the right monitor. Other than that is sounds great

[ericclapton00]

When you started singing, i thought "Did he got Jose Gonzalez to sing"? Then I realized it was you. B E A utiful!

[svensson91]

Beau-ti-ful... Check my version, but I think yours is better. I mean it...

[rickvanhattum]

really good! five stars, you inspire me :)

[KraZerrrBTD]

You vocal style reminds me of alex from fightstar.

[ekermo92]

best cover, best interpretation of this song I've heard without doubt

[connor703]

im really struggling to get the tempo right... any tips??

is it played really fast? i play it note for note but it sounds a little off. i know its tuned right lol

[MrSousage]

Really good cover but just one thing is that i can hear your voice only in the right ear-piece not in both [guitar can be heared in both]. Anyway 5 stars

[callum7701]

Your really good, love this :)

[heymynameisalice]

I've seen loads of versions of this cover, and yours is by far the most beautiful.

[Maki1789]

you have beatiful voice bravo!

[alkowa2003]

i see you have edited your voice!!!!! lol you sneaky bam

[TubMac]

Yeah I suck so what other options are there? :-)

No jk, I only recorded them afterwards. If I had two mics I would have recorded vocals and guitar at the same time.

[alkowa2003]

@TubMac that makes life easier, focus on playing once and then focus on singing the other time :P

[TubMac]

Thank you all for the friendly compliments, I really appreciate it!

[MrCockSlut]

@TubMac  this is the D A D F# B E tuning isnt it?

[TubMac]

Yup, that's correct.

[Halo54345]

@MrCockSlut well done you know how to read the description

[MrCockSlut]

@Halo54345 ha actually didnt look

[Halo54345]

@MrCockSlut lol my bad. sorry for being a dick.

[Halo54345]

@MrCockSlut lol my bad

[MonkeyTreat931]

Brilliantly played and vocals were so similar to Jose's great!!!

[jonomutiny]

Beautiful man

[Alevi89]

this one is THE BEST cover dude! awsome

[InCertainSights]

little slower than the original but definitly the best cover of it out there

[eagl01]

I don't like very much the fact that your guitare is stereo and your voice only mono. But in the meantime, you play it very well and you sing it very good. so except for the mix, I have to say Very Good Job :)

[eagl01]

Ho, i just see the comment of corovanmoro and your reply for the explanation.

one more time good job, I like it a lot.

[goldnight]

yeah, exactly.

[samhtheman909]

Thats amazin, both guitar playin an singin.

Well done mate.

[shanenorberg]

class cover:) i bet it was hard to sing and play that at the same time

[TubMac]

Thx! Well, I recorded the vocals separately actually, so no problem there. I've only got one good mic so recording them at the same time is not ideal.

[hywelgregory]

why the panning with the vocals?

my right ear is ah and my left ear is liek meh

[indiemelon]

Absoutely amazing. Voice and guitar. Love it :)

[Tinkwi]

Great voice , great picking - you got a lot of talent !!

[HabemusFR]

It's a very great cover.

Thank you !! =)

[corovanmoro]

5 stars! Well done, man. Great picking and a great voice. I gotta say I don't like the panning, though! I kinda wanna hear your voice on both my ears. Great job. I had a similar problem covering this to get the vocals right... I still wasn't very satisfied with it, but I'd appreciate your input if you have time to check my version out.

[TubMac]

Yeah you're right, the panning is wrong. I made a mistake with setting up my new mic when recording the vocals, and didn't know how to fix it then. Thank you for your compliment, I will check your video out.

[liibertines]

beautiful

[suusjuq]

Wauw! Hitje!

Waarom heb je dat andere liedje van Elliott Smith eraf gehaald? Die vond ik ook zo mooi! :)

[Rooozem]

MOOI!

[st23r]

that was a really beautiful cover, TubMac. 5/5

=]

[severon1976]

Nice cover TubMac,u mastered the song and i know how hard it is to sing along with it. Great job and keep playing. About my video i searched for the pictures and tried to make something out of the lyrics as i really love this song and somehow in a way pay tribute to it. Take care... :)
