Josh is great with his own music but this song has a ton of complexity and this cover version has missed much of that. The guitar style in this is very driven and the vocals are high and earnest. The Church perform this with massive depth and space and the vocals are understated, breathy and trance-like. It can be done differently but I think this has lost something.
his voice is outstanding and amazing in every single way. i'd like to see you do a cover of this song and sing it with as much passion as he does and sound incredible !
@bozomatt What I love about Josh Pyke's music is that he uses a lot of vocal layering in his songs. "The Summer" is a good example (particularly the chorus). I guess he's not everyone's cup of tea, but I think 'plain' is a bit harsh ;) haha.
@daynef1 In case you didn't realise, it's meant to be a cover, hence it's known as "like a version". Josh Pyke's own songwriting skills are well above par too, and I think that he, of anyone, deserves to pay tribute to The Church.
He has such a deep voice, yet he hits really high notes...

Beautiful cover! I like Josh a lot, he has a simple yet lovely voice, very easy to listen to. He also has a way with that acoustic guitar *_*

Amazing cover of a great song. I still like The Church's version better, but he did a great rendition of the song.
Pretty talented.
