because i loved your voice so much and your style, i was influenced to start playing the acoustic and have been playin for 2 years now and this was the first song that i learnt. Thank so much for the inspiration
i clicked this vid and thought "oh my, not again a guy who thinks he can sing" but while i was searching another vid, you started to sind, and DARN! i´m glad i´m so slow in typing!
hey dude idk if u read comments but u inspired me to make my own music channel on youtube =P honestly you are better than any professional singer man! thanks for the inspiration to do something great! byee =D
james, i'm addicted to your voice! please keep puttng more on youtube for all your fans which appear to be a lot! you've been blessed with a gift from God :)
In my humble opinion, this lad has sung many songs as good as the original and a few even better. It pains me to see that he has not moved onto bigger stage since he started posting on YouTube in 2006. He certainly has what it takes to get there.
You are truly something beautiful. I could listen to your voice all day and night. I haven't heard a more exquisite voice than yours in...I don't know. Right now, I can't think of anything but you. You are absolutely an amazing masterpiece. Can I buy your music on iTunes? Where can I buy it? I need it on my iPod.
hey james i know ur busy but could u please let me know exactly what cords you are doing in order.. they look very simple and im a beginner at guitar and wud much appreciate it.. love your music by the way bro you are very good
They're not exactly simple, if you're a beginner. But I totally suggest you get them and set them as your goal. I'd stick to mastering your simple G,C,D,Dm,Am, etc. chords first. If you're already there, then totally go for this song!
WOW. SAW YOU ON ELLEN AND COULDN'T BELIEVE WHAT I WAS HEARING. YOU ARE AMAZING. HAD TO LOOK YOU UP AND I'M EVEN MORE IMPRESSED. big things are going to happen for you. ridiculous voice. AMAZING. GET YOUR ALBUM IN STORES, IMA BUY ONE! =D
Your voice is so versatile, I could literally spend all day watching your videos, so glad I stumbled across your " What she's doing now" video, I am such a fan!
oh my god your so good im in love with that song your so good at it omg omg omg omg i love your voice XD your very talented. keep singing i love it ^^
Wow! What a voice!!!! I agree, head for American Idol NOW!!! What a great style you have to go along with the voice. I'm impressed beyond words! Do it!
This is one of my favourite songs ever. Normally I hate other people singing my favourite songs but...well, I've got to say- you almost sound better than the original. I'm in love with your voice. Truly.
I was shocked when I heard your voice it was really great....i remember someone when I hear this song...i thought it was like the japanese guy from some video who sang like crap...really great...love it...
The vocals are great. Your whole song was basically 2 chords for the most part though... it would have sounded even better if you had played the same chords as the original i think.
Hey, James is it?? You are awesome!!! One request tho.... would you consider doing a song or two acapella? You are a wonderful guitarist, and whoever is your pianist accompaniant, also does a wonderful job (no pianist in this song) but would VERY MUCH like to hear the purity of your voice as itself, just for a treat to all of us youtube junkies!!! Keep going, youre awesome!
i love this song and you make it sound even better than before....your music makes me feel relaxed which is a good thing cuz half the time im stressed and cant think straight your music helps me to chill out and think about the things i have and not worry about the things i dont have....your awsome man!!!!
Okay, my mum told me to check out your music. I will be honest I was thinking man its just going to be some wannabe awesome singer from youtube that needs a life. When I listened to you singing this song, my jaw not only dropped but I was amazed at how amazing your voice is. Keep up the good work!
Man James, goes without saying that your voice is AMAZING but the sound quality of your videos is also better than most.
