  • Hate male covers but this is spot onnnn, do Born to Die by Lana Del Rey next?! subscribed..

  • You nailed that song! fantastic..

  • hey nice one man, subscribed, please check out my originals and do the same if you like ;) i did a cover of born to die on mine!

  • really like your version  fantastic voice!

  • Nice work Jay!! Great version. Great voice. It's a killa track ay. I had a crack at a dub step kinda version youtube.com/watch?v=1Fiu6Prs4Z­0

  • good job

  • i love your voice :)

  • That was great! I had to listen to over ten covers of this before I heard yours. Best,

  • wow, THIS IS AMAZING! 

  • I do like covers but I can't stand when guys change the lyrics to maintain their masculinity. It was the same thing with Katy Perry's "One That Got Away" where the males would replace "make out in your mustang to radiohead" with "make out in MY mustang to radiohead". I'm not a feminist, but this is a pet peeve so I'm going to have to dislike this. Fair attempt though!

  • @musikeuphoria i know, it is a big pet peeve of mine... it's called a cover for a reason, nonetheless he is good

  • Your voice is an unreal match for this song. It blows my mind every time I listen to your cover. It's so difficult to make gender-specific lyrics sound good for the opposite gender, and you sir did it perfectly. Your tone, vibrato, and emotion is spot on. I don't even want to sing along so that I don't mask your presentation of the song. Well done sir, cheers.

  • What lisp is everyone talking about? Love your cover! Beautiful!

  • amazing cover. and I like the lisp so fuck what the others say<3 you've got IT. didn't expect to like it at all, just another you tube cover shot in someone's bed room. but honey you keep chasing your dreams because you've got something special for sure. xoxoXO

  • you have a great voice. But this is not broadcasting. You can sing well but the lisp hurts. Sorry!

  • it's a really beautiful cover. the lyrical reinterpretation is spot-on and heart-felt. great job man.

  • wow.real good.

  • I love how you sand your soul into it. The part around 2:16 is incredible.

  • so good, amazing, congrats to you! xx

  • this gives me wonderful feelings

  • You are amazing.

  • i love this voice....great :)

  • I like that british accent

  • This touches the heart!

    You carry the passion so strongly throughout the whole song, I feel like her version is really striking at the begining but dwindles. Thanks for sharing your talent.

  • I got goose pimples!

  • and my heart is melting...

  • I don't usually like when men cover this song for some reason... but this was spot on. I like how you changed up the lyrics a bit, and put actual emotion into this like a lot of the covers on youtube lack. VERY well done.

  • 2:16 and 2:22 and 2:40 is awesoooooome!

  • Great job. I felt shivers on my back

  • Subed ! 

  • wow this is great, i was hoping id find a cover where a guy sang it from his perspective and you did, and i love it., i made a cover to this too, if you want you can check it out and let me know what you think, thanks=)

  • omg. amazing!

  • good voice but the lisp needs attention

  • mega

  • Great job!!

  • amazing as usual

  • Great cover!

  • Muuuuuito bom!

  • Heeeej, I miss something. Let me think.... Blond, cute and.............FEMALE. But to be true, you sing ok. But still not blond, cute and that other thing

  • @rsoomer What the fuck.

  • @AdoreDelight Sorry, he's not Lana del Rey. Nough said

    

  • @rsoomer What the fuck.

  • In love with this song at the moment. And I'm in love with this version. Your voice carries this tune so well, would love to hear more.

  • Got It man:)

  • Wouw awsome voice!!

  • (: so nice! love it! x

  • You have a wonderful, soulful voice and this is a great rendition. Unfortunately the change in lyrics detracts significantly from the meaning of the original. Maybe you could change them while leaving the meaning intact?

  • still don't know the original, but if you sing it, i'll buy it!

  • DUDE! A+ Very well done!

  • i from holland very very nice.

  • Very good voice, and overall a good cover, I just don't like all those changes in the lyrics.

  • Nice passion, you were what I was looking for in a good cover of this song

  • Amazing. Love love love love this.

  • where i your album ?!?! i want to hear your voice singing on repeat ! x

  • i found so many covers of this incredible song ... tbh most were not that reat but this was stunning ... gave me chills ... subscribing after i hear this ... keep it up i have never heard this sung so well ... stunning gave me chills <3 xxxx

  • the change in the lyrics pretty much clarifies that yr a douche

  • @hauntPawson man he just changed the lyrics because he's a guy, singing to a girl ... 

  • Ta voix est... magnifique.

  • Gosh I want to listen to you on repeat. I think I'll be subscribing, from seeing just this video.

  • WOW... I didn't know what I was in for when I clicked this. Just, wow! A good wow. o_o

  • this is such a great cover. love your voice. it has a lot of emotion xx

  • bloody great. I like your voice especially on the loud bits :-)

    I want to sing this too but was not sure about the word changes per male vocalist. You did a good job of altering them. And have been itching to muck about on the piano and see how the chords hang together...

  • Comment removed

  • Really can't just watch these videos once. Love the sound, the expression and pretty much all that goes in between.

  • wow wow wow wow wow Great performer!!!!

    Ta voix viens litteralement chercher des émotions profondes au fond de moi..

    Pourquoi tu n'es pas plus connu?

  • Nice voice! At the second pre-chorus it gets really good. I think the lyric changes don't work though. And dcsnj, thanks for being heteronormative and implying that making it "gay" makes it "bad."

  • reminds me of will young and i am a HUGE will young fan :D

  • You made me cry. Its so emotional and believable, even though they arent your words, I can tell you feel them.

  • I could say your videos never disappoint Jay, but that wouldn't be doing you justice. I'm always taken away to an amazing place when I listen to your songs. Bang up job brother!

  • this is just wonderful :)

  • great cover. disagree with changing lyrics. they sound gay if kept the same. you put right spin on it for a male singer

  • you are incredible.

  • I love it Jay, as always!

  • I think changing lyrics, shuffling things around for identity-of-the singer reasons goes against the song. I would rather maintain the lyrics without the change, or don’t attempt to perform it. But don’t change the lyrics!

    That being said, I think this song is more suited for a female voice. Your treatment is more like a Coldplay-ish rendition with a little ‘November Rain’ at the end. I applaud your vocal daring, but this didn’t do it for me.

    Regards,

  • @ESOTERICSTRAND

    *rolls eyes* No one cares for your cheesy party boy opinion. :P

  • @ESOTERICSTRAND

    I agree! I think he did a great job and has a wonderful voice that he made work for this song, but the change of lyrics was kind of clumsy.

    Just sing the words, no one will think any different of you for singing the lyrics to a song you like, and if they do...so what? You'll never meet these people, and the praise that you do receive will be coming from people who really appreciate your voice and your arrangement, which were both really good!

  • I just want to say that every time I see a video in my subscriptions from you, I immediately look forward to it.

    I'm never ever disappointed.

  • I love it

  • really beautiful Jay.

  • Great choice!

  • can you play any instuments...do you make all the background music yourself?
