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!
Hello! I would be really glad if you took your precious time out to watch my cover of this song.
Pleaaase :) Visit my channel and watch my cover. I dont mean to be a youtube star or even popular...Just watch the cover once. Please. And leave comments. Thank u. :)
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.
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 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 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.
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=)
Found your clip by mistake.........but so glad I did! LOVE IT great cover and lush voice...........have listened to it about 10 times today already LOL thanks bud x SO GOOD
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
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?
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
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...
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."
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!
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.
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!
