I would love to hear you sing Whispering from the 1920's. It is sung two ways, one is up beat fast tempo throughout the song. But try the second way, it is slower and has a haunting echo sound. Your videos prove you're never alone if you have talent!
Great cover. One tiny criticism - when you're saying "the longest", it should be pronounced like "thuh", not "thee". It's "thuh" before consonants ("the longest"), and "thee" before vowels ("the angels").
my husband and I would like to hear the Pink Panther theme..can you do that one? you are so amazing btw..I smile when I hear you performing (I'm an avid harmonizer myself)
I am truly amazed how this sounds as good as (if not better, but hard to tell with the differing musical attributes) the original song. Man, if someone made a band that could replicate and build upon this sound, it would go far if there were many people like me. (Er... just realized that Glee clubs do that... meh) Keep up the good work! I actually bought your Mission Impossible theme rendition just because I thought I could use it for intro music some time. No, I swore that I would use it!
Your videos are cool, They must take ages to make. (How long?) Oh and as a fellow video editor (not as good as you) what software do you use?? Keep em coming,
I love Billy Joel music, and it is so hard to find good acapella renditions of his music, but you sir... you have created an amazing arrangement for this song! I applaud you for your ingenuity and talent! I look forward to many more incredible pieces from you!
@knexkid Here here!!! Couldn't agree more! I found this amazing guy looking for a good "For The Longest Time" version...boy am I glad I ended up here!!
AHHHH!!! Sorry, I just absolutely LOVE your videos!!! You and I have very similar tastes in music, and you are SUPER talented. I just subscribed, and just wanted you to know how AWESOME you are. Here's a little project for you: American Pie - Don McClain. Think you can handle it? Guess we'll see. ;)
I like your stuff in general a lot, but this falls short of the original, and since it was already a capella, you don't add anything new to it. But I bet it was fun to record. :) Keep up the good work.
you are ridiculously amazing! I came across you via gizmodo and your simpsons cover and been watching your vids nonstop now. I had chills listening to this one. keep up the great work and lets get you some more " views and likes"
How many versions of you are there in this? I understand Billy Joel used 15 versions of himself to make the effects, with a bass guitar as the only instrument... I reckon you've beaten him out for technical ability here :)
I would love to see what you would do with some rock, like Metallica or something of that nature. Just saying, this is great, I just want to see if it's possible for you.
@ispepteid1 I wouldn't say ANYTHING is better than Freddie. But I think Nick has his own unique set of skills that makes him just as, if not more, amazing.
I'm also impressed with the video itself. Very well made, and great voice. Keep it up! +1 Subsciber
I'm singing this song acapella with some friends, and man, you just dashed my hopes of getting famous... But really, you are really good; right up there with Mike Tompkins and all that. Thanks for posting this video!
This is flawless. I havent heard anything like this before in my life. Seriously. This is better vocals than queen and the beach boys. Amazing. Please, give us more!
Solid performance. I think the last time I visited your channel I thought you might do a good rendition of this, and if I did think that then it looks like I was right. If you can find someone with some insane high range you might want to have a gander at either "Good Vibrations" (Beach Boys) or "Duh Tvoy Blagiy". Or for something silly and probably far easier; "Fugue for Tinhorns". Now it's time to catch up on what you've made since last I happened upon your work.
@nmckaig Add more relevant keywords in the title or description of the video. Tags aren't the only thing YouTube looks at. And advertise yourself better on other websites :) You'd be surprise how the word can spread easily then...
And yes! You're really talented. Good choice of songs too :)
