Closing Time (Acoustic Cover) Chris Alvarado

[summerstrumming]

Damn wish I found this 5 years ago! Great job man and loved how you layered everything

[possumshake]

epic!

[bigfucker71]

wow bravo my friend you just took that song to new hights. i want to personaly thank you.

[3assist]

dude i can't believe you're not signed by someone.

[M1zusii]

Awesome!

[bunnybreeding]

Fuckin amazing

[usatennisproff]

Chris. you sound good. I like your voice, but on the higher notes work on projecting to keep the volume even, and not sound like you're straining for the higher register. Until you get stronger in the higher notes, get closer to the mic during the high notes. Good luck to you.

[shyland20]

please re-do this song buddy.

you are f. awesome

[parkouryeahyeah]

Amazing Maan i Love u're Voice and u're Play !!!!!!!! Peace !!

[JuanBautista12]

ima stab everyone of u... y the frik are the top two comments the same? i swear ppl r so stupid nowadays

[SamMcCumber]

Dude that was AWESOME! What kind of looper did you use?

[ArcadeGames]

Nice rendition!

[jongeorge83]

dude - awesome job bro

[FanaticIncFilms]

I'm not gonna lie. Why no one has signed you is completely out of question. You NEED to be on a record label. You're one of the best singers I've ever heard. If there are any people hating on this guy, shut the hell up. This guy's gifted. I immediately subscribed to you, dude. I can't wait to hear more, bro.

[JuanBautista12]

dude u sound like john friken mayer!!!!!! UR FKN AWESOME!!!!

[vc008]

absolutely incredible ... as always ♥

[klatorre44]

american idol dude

[acoustic0echo]

[e4white]

[TheBananaketchup]

Woah! John Mayer!

[ThReneBraxtonAccount]

@TheBananaketchup you are soo right:)

[carlospadronnomames]

great cover man.!! 7 dislike? jealous people.... keep it in that way !!!

[tanebadi]

holy jesus, awesome version man, you're my hero... love that song

[BonfireOrchestra]

Spectacular job, man.

[H0RSECRAZYx32]

Better than the original song :)

[edwindsuryadifi]

Man! your voice is so damn too good!! I love the soul of this cover!

[miltonesanz]

Great Cover, you have a John Mayer air about you!

[MaxwellWrann]

Playin is great man. Kick ass at Funky Blue's Shack.

[DepthWave]

I thought the chorus was played with barre chords... but at least these are the same ones... just not barred.... I think

[pwoodfi]

nice job man!

[sgtSNIPESHOWsgt]

good cover, nice vocals

[stodd32]

nice job man

[sparks158]

I don't know how Justin Bieber could get famous from his youtube videos, but you're not a star yet.

[CRAIGARRR]

Fantastic job!!

[angel19952262]

most amazing cover of this song I have heard. Fabulous!

[vivelaparis]

PERFECT!

[threedaysgracefan6]

so amazing man!

[H4ppyEmma]

You are fantabulous!

[MzPuNkRoCk22]

dammm hella good man

[glitch1792]

Not bad. I love this song

[pgillz11]

thats pretty sick dude, nice cover

[poloteamusa]

HA he looks like the guy off of harry potter and the chamber secrets the one that had the black hair with the messed up teeth no effense you dont have messed up teeth though

[SingingForSeven]

it was very very good but i felt like on the last chorus you should have added more dynamics and musical contrast and used your full voice on the chorus instead of pulling back the way you do to essentially give it a climax. Otherwise excellent.

[guitaranthony]

do you use the boss loop pedal? nice cover, sounds great

[dex6171]

Are you currently signed with anyone? If not I'd love to talk with you about signing a record label.

[makesmegohummm]

Inspired me to do my own cover of this song... thanks man, GREAT JOB!!!!

[Kirbiz21]

Awsome voice

[sgtSNIPESHOWsgt]

very nice voice

[johnnystickyfingers]

The first song I learned... an old favourite. Epic cover.

[sevendeadly69]

those pedals are great aren't they  ; )

[Eclipsesfury]

I love this :)

[criticalacclaim1]

idc what negative things ppl say about your cover, this is amazing, nice use of the loop pedal, me and some friends did a cover of this for school pep band, wish we could have put it up on here, but my camera died halfway through, or so my girlfriend (At the time) said =/ potentially upsetting, but we were good

[TheOrciii]

awesome =)

[Littleotau]

wow

[Anetek189]

Bardzo fajne wykonanie :) podoba mi się. widać ze ta piosenka płynie z głębi Twojego serca.

[moelover123]

this is amazing

ur literally as good as john mayer

[Bulosan21]

that was sicked dude...seriously good job. good voice, nice cover, great arrangement

[Biznass420]

youre gay aren't you

[Apprentice12233445]

amazing playing, but u should definitely memorize the lyrics first

[shadycal27]

absolutely genius. Bravo.

[katie4julz]

wow...i love this

[Spokrey]

please please please put out a CD, please. =) I'd market the SHIT out of it!

[poetpnaix3]

loved this. just work on the high parts, i guess. haha

[jakeb220]

What kind of loop pedal are you using?

Thanks

[balla1314]

john mayer?

[tatertot36]

thats sick dude, nice looping

[BryceBarnes61]

wow, nice job. if you wouldnt mind, could i get the tabs or jusy where you found these.

and honestly, your voice is really nice, you sound like john mayer

[ExecutionKing]

Eh, John Mayer is a stretch. I do hear some of the same vocal techniques but nothing really sounds like him aside from ONE spot in the beginning of the vocal section...though that's 'prolly just me =p

[favok99]

i agree with you. there is one spot in the beginning where he does sound like john mayer.

[andrewking101]

G D Am C

use your ears!

[Alc5d]

Well, it sounds like its tuned down a half step, so i don't think using your ears would get those chords...

[Mcpaul69]

@andrewking101 hell, use your eyes

[Subl1me88]

nice loop little bit like keller williams you should listen to some of his music if you havent already.

[alaskancandidate]

real good dude

[bigshooterpreece]

I really enjoy the way you play this song :)

I hate when people ask me for tabs. I hope it is not a bother but how do you have your guitar set up. Are you tuned down half step?

Thank you, once again great piece of work

[justinhill428]

hey man good job

[devilhead514]

me likey your voice...good stuff.

[Alvarado8076]

It is live... I'm using a Digitec Looper. All tracks are recorded in real time as I made the video. This is what I do on stage when performing.

[jmd11185]

i wish this would have been live and not studio with multiple takes and tracks

[outlaw586]

@jmd11185 You're a dumbass.

[jmd11185]

for what?

[km7634]

[kevjones93]

i didnt know you could do that!!

Awesome!!!

6 STARS lol

[wraith88]

Great cover! Loved the loops, the change of vocal rhythm, and your voice is perfect for this kind of song.

[miko54321]

guitar guy i dont know if i mis understood your comment, but im pretty sure its good to have a humidifier in the room with your guitars.

[14870nirvana]

i dont liek your syle but your really good

[Treesaww93]

nice guitar. what kind is it? =D

[stallingsbd]

Great Job Man. Yea, kinda a John Mayer thing going here. I like it though. Keep on keepin on!

[killthelightzzz]

dude. you need some John Mayer covers.

[Javier88G]

i read your comment before he started singing, but when he did, i was like DANG! he does sound like john mayer when he sings the verses

[Guitarguy1991]

Yer you should definatly take your humidifier out of your room dude...i used to have one in my room cuz i got nose bleeds all the time...then i got my Gibson and Ovation and it's time to take them out! I think you have to nice of stuff to not take care of it

[smazerolle]

is that in standard tuning? because it sounds a lbit different then when i play it with the same chords

[Peej204]

its tuned one step down

[VoodooChild24]

Great cover! Am I hearing John Mayer?

[RyanRotten80]

no..chris alvarado...dumbass!

[piratelax]

you did this song some justice

[VoodooChild24]

Great performance man!

[aohus]

[nicesayssk8fast]

[Alvarado8076]

I live in Alaska where humidity does not exist... I actually have to have a humidifier in the room!!!

[akinoyeshua]

Greetz from Germany

[AmbitForLimit]

Dude! Mind blowing! Im very impressed.

[drofgonzo12]

[cuponooDels]

Oh damn....this is one of the best covers I've. I love your voice by the way. It reminds my of Jack Johnson, except it's a bit deeper and smokier. I love it!

I'm going to check out your other stuff. This is pure sweetness

[DavidWrightMets]

did you get lucky or do you actualy know about guitar tone

[gleal80]

this is a lot better than the original version. I like the John Mayer touch ;) nice buddy

[oconnorandy]

good job man

[megwxn]

Can i book you for an event?

....seriously? Hit me up, You'll be well compensated. Great job bro. :D

[timbrooks77]

what are you useing to record the different sounds???

[LIJMAN27]

its a 'loop pedal'

[bkper087]

I really like this style of play. It has almost a John Mayer feel to it. This is why I learned to play acoustic guitar. Keep it up.

[LIJMAN27]

how come it sounds different? i mean, friggin awesum job but i was playin along wif it and its like in a different key or sumfin

[donohuwe]

i love the twist u gave the song it sounds awesome!!

[WillowWildfire]

One word. Amazing.

[bhier20]

[mdelapena]

[mortalfire06]

when u first stop playing the guitar i thought u were lyp singing then i realized u were using a loop pedal nice job

[zxXTruMpXxz]

Great Song Dude What pedal do you use I use a Digitech GNX4 For all my looping... no vids of me yet but shortly

[jamieo2593]

amazing voice. great choice of song. you're just great!

[trublgrl]

Loop pedal? Genius on this repetitive-butt song :) This is one I play and sing, and even while I'm playing it, I get bored! Awesome vocals on this one, Mr. Chris!

[lightgrenademe]

yeah that was really cool with the pedal...my only suggestion to think about would be to get rid of the falsetto in the last couple choruses or even just the last one and belt it out as kind of a finisher. nice job anyway

[PolishElf]

Really like your use of loop pedal. Your guitar rocks and u got an awesome voice. Keep inspired!

[garoose]

That's really cool with the loop pedal.
