I adore this. My only wish is that you had included my favorite line "I know what you are, I just don't mind". That's probably my favorite lyric of all time.
No disrespect to the folks who get up on here with their guitars and try to imitate ES, but this should be exhibit A of how you are supposed to cover him. don't try to be something you're not, just be yourself and see what you can do with the song.
that is exactly what you have done here.
seeing this video i thought of a great idea elliott could have done; had he lived and ever ran into writer's block. just re-do all his old songs on the piano and put it out as a record. woulda been fun...
Nice version! It be awesome if you posted some of your original songs on here...I just started listening to them on myspace when your account got shut down for some reason. They sounded good though! Happy Ween of Hallows!
Oh my god... your voice gives me chills like no other voice. Good work making a cover I don't hate, too. I miss some of Elliott's original chords, but you really make it fun and original. 5 Stars.
Thanks Eric, I guess it wasn't good enough at the time. Not easy either. ES songs have really fast chord changes and modulations. That's why they're great to learn :)
Yeah, they are a lot of fun to play. I am trying to learn last hour. I have the guitar down perfectly but the vocals are difficult for me. I just need to tune down a half or maybe a whole step.
i can't stop listening to this version it's very different, scary and i love it
