Not Nice (Chris Garneau - Cover)

[mexi82]

you and chris garneau are so talented and adorable, you should have a kid together

[IrethLynn]

You were able to make this song even more beautiful...your voice is great, thank you again for sharing :)

[afblas]

Beautiful and so moving.. *sigh* Thanks for sharing. :)

[GAGANHEIM]

Chris and Matthew are so similar and both such beautiful, gifted people. I wish I could see them perform live more often, or at all in Matthew's case.

[xzeuqx]

:]

[yogapradag]

thank you matthew

there is great power in vulnerability!

[MgaMegan]

chris garneau is incredible, definitely deserves more recognition. and this cover is legit :)

[jacktee5]

I can't stop listening to your music. I think you're amazingly talented. I learnt your Samson tutorial, it was really good , thank you. One quesiton, it may sound silly , but how do you get so much feeling behind your words, you seem to just connect with every song you sing?

[gunterandyuri]

you're professional level

[09swissmiss]

where are you now? :(

[HardcoreCowLip]

im going to be honest; you did a better job then chris himself.

[MgaMegan]

i love Chris Garneau and your cover is awesome :)

[theugene]

incredible... im a huge CG fan i think this cover is better then the orig. very rarely do artist do covers where that is the case. this is dam beautiful

[buildingjoshua]

This is almost the best I've heard. You've made me really sit back and begin to listen to artist more intently. PS, thanks for intruducing me to Chris G.

[somekindofbeginning]

wow. i can't stop watching this video. i admire your passion. please keep making videos.

[lovely7ml]

wow!! your voice is really beautiful!! they way you sing really touched me

[becausemymommysaidso]

c'est merveilleuse! j'aime ta musique! (:

[Saberfang90]

WOW i have never heard this song till now and it made me cry between the lyrics and your emotions its beautiful thank you very much (:

[pigchen]

...wow. I watched your cover of Samson, like, years ago...promptly lost track of you...and now looking up lyrics from a mix CD my friend made for a roadtrip, I stumble across your video.

And you're still awesome. ^_^

[XxXxkrazyamy]

this is beautiful.

good job :)

[OwwKayy]

...And it's only one year after that that i stumbled across 'Between The Bars' by him, and being a huge Elliott Schmidt/Sufjan Stevens/The Auteurs fan, i went back to the whole album and was overwhelmed by its sober, dark and sad beauty. Not Nice is one of my favorites too. Since then, i'm introducing all of my friends to Chris Garneau's work.

[OwwKayy]

Very good cover, thank you for putting it online. Your info about it is remining me about the way i really got in touch with Garneau's music: i gave it a listen in my record store, early '08, and kind of missed the point...

[BrianLouderbackMusic]

this is a really good job. And chris garneau does deserve to get his name out more for sure!

[Wrabbles]

You're so beautiful..

[hkgasianboy]

hi, can you try the" note to god" by charice pempenco. you will catch more viewers on it..

[IRascon]

you have a nice voice but anyone that says you sound like him is a fucking idiot..no one can do it like chris.

[timemkr2]

hey man miss you hope to hear from you soon :(

[MultiSexqueen]

do u know him

[DaintyButtons]

Well after feeling poorly all day.. this has definately made my day worth while.

You are beautiful and your music is very heart felt.

[xyxaxsoon]

ok mathew weve been patient

when will we hear you again

this is getting cruel

[LittleNerd]

Reeeally gorgeous. Bootiful emotional voice.

Lovely crisp mix too :O)

Thanks for recommending, Daz :)

[hinza007]

I think you bring your own style to this cover..it gets more of an R&B pop sound to it..I prefer the original, but this cover is great too :D. You got a nice voice.

[603coleman]

yeah where is your own album....? you are a great musician, who brings so much to every song and you're very attractive. I love listening to you and would pay money to see you play live

[vins1979]

Matt, seriously man, I NEED more videos of you: please, please, please, keep on posting them. Am I wrong or you disappeared from the web for a year or so? But I've got two requests. 1st: you proved to be the unquestionable master of emotional music, and that's more than all right, but i would like to hear your voice dealing with a harder\rocker rythm... come on, take the challenge. And 2nd... where the fuck is your own record?!?

[potatoyong]

WOW~ it's so touching... i cried... well almost :D ...... I like your hair btw XD

[AndreasHaugen]

Make mor videos!!!

[Osmun79]

wow.. you really get into the song..

[TaylorJanette]

This is a really good cover, not to mention a cutie covering it~* I love Chris Garneauuuuuuu

[Semitic1981]

his Music for Tourists is a great album. from the title to its content.

your represenation of him is beautiful as always.

[frenseeker87]

Never heard of this song before. Loved it from the first time I heard it from you. Then, I went over to the original singer's version and the CD version.....I'm gob-smacked. Your version is so much more polished and your vocals are so emotive. Why the heck are you not signed to any labels yet? I wanna see a record release from you.

[stripedsquidkid]

he's totally inspiring and adorable to boot.

[alavazpxndx]

wooow ure great, nice voice, nice hair, nice face heheh woow ure my boy fantasy

[affectionisdesirable]

wow, beautiful.

:D

[AliceHatt]

Chris does it better.

But thank you, thank you for promoting him!

[kowtpr187]

I think this is just as good. It just depends on who is interpreting it. Ive heard them both and of course people will like the original artist, but this is just an interpretation

[hottnsottafta]

Your voice is so beautiful and pure.

[fiskars666]

fucking gay.

[matthewmaclellan]

shut the fuck up, please.

[Antoine1607]

Your not being nice >(

[ColinnbMusic]

Nice Job! Where did you get the chords/ if you learned to by ear do you think you could send them to me? They don't sound to complicated.

[carpevitam33]

this was absolutely amazing. you have so much emotion in your voice. you should really write your own music. i would love to listen to a cd you've made.

[michaesslipknot]

damn dude you can control the timbre of your voice so well[2]

[sugarhiccup333]

Would love to hear hear you sing some Stray Cats - Stray Cat Strut...perfect for your voice.

[RalphLauren269]

intimate man!

[mannysodiumglutamate]

it was good.

but it doesn't have

chris' charm

[jhongigolo4]

i have to lay it on the line and say that yr version is better than chris garneau's

[Schattchen]

omg... thats so amazing!

[jasvarn5]

Chris is a great song writer, but I like your version better....your voice is so beautiful and has so much emotion it just draws you in and makes you feel the song. thanks for posting this

[kowtpr187]

Whats funny is the version of Chris Garneau in the hotel room has only about 8,000 hits and this one has 15,000 almost

[mannysodiumglutamate]

how is that funny?

[kowtpr187]

because hes more well known than matthew

[ssssonicyouth]

damn dude you can control the timbre of your voice so well

[KINSKIERA]

i can see you sitting there on the great piano in a big coffe bar in koblenz germany,...makin such sound,...this is no joke this is no girlie obsession.this is what we feel for real ARt.

you are an artist,....voice and soul in between.

thanx

[KINSKIERA]

thanx f.emotions

[AunShovah]

you think there are sheets for this song?

[AunShovah]

I dont like it how people ask in the comments section, but I had to. Ive looked everywhere and cant find them

[korisx]

Beautiful

[ExtraRiche]

You left me in tears....

Lovely, You could go far......

[kampam3]

awesooome cover!!! very emotional :)

[rodaniros]

u look like petter from the movie spiderman

[trackagrado]

I love Chris!!! Te la chupo???

Me vine de pensarlo, espero me leeas. Te quiero mil por dos!

[lovewillneverbeme]

i wish i can play this on the guitar..

[Cathrynhill]

excellent stuff u should get far wiv this

[main68]

wow you are just amazing

[Sisyphus23]

well done !!!

[angelavillon]

this is beautiful, absolutely

[elinelinelle]

start sing songs by Damien Rice I think that would fit you perfectly. like cold water, it would be so beautiful.

[lndovist]

Have you ever thought of American idol? You would win hands down!

[mrvictoria]

everyone knows anyone with real talent wont win those types of shows.. unfair if it were about actualy talent then yes he would win hands down

[RomenJorika]

Beautiful, really, I'm enchanted...

[radcliche]

aaah tore my heart open :'(

[flowers4563]

you have me crying, well done :)

xxx

[sweetflowerr]

Owh boy.. you made me cry..

So tender, so pure, so small that it becomes very great.. intriguing..

Thank you..

[awakeinlove10]

OMG PLEASE do Baby's Romance by Chris Garneau, I love Chris's singing and he has such a unique voice, more ppl definitely need to realize his amazing songs.

I wanna hear you do the "I know.. I know.. I KNOWW" that Chris does so well and I'm sure you can too.

You're great, I'm a fan:)

[mrv6probe]

You have one fantastic voice. Up until watching 'it gets lonely' I had never heard you sing, you are so talented. you deserve a huge hit. do you have an album?

[MamouazelleJoanne]

Can you sing the song " chasing cars" by Snow Patrol, please :$

Sorry for my bad English

[warhammerdwarf]

omg i tottally agree with you.

chasing cars!!

[14katt]

breath taking.

[chasetube]

they need to allow users to rank more than 5 stars.

5 stars is just condescending for this video

wonderful job, matthew

:]

im a huge chris fan, and so i get all defensive whenever i see somebody covered his songs

but this was phenomenal

[xXPureMorningXx]

this is absoultely spectacular. i truly mean that, you did chris such justice with this cover and brought me to tears with it's beauty. thank you so very much for spreading chris to the rest of the world <3

[xetiennettex]

hi, i just finished learning your samson version, and i'm checking out your other stuff. this is really good, i hope you go far with your obvious passion. thanks again for breaking down samson!!

[sacopenapan]

I love the way you sing, it makes me cry. so beautifull! so romantic!I like to make love hearing to your songs

[lebruitblanc]

he doesn't need to speed up or speak up. it's all beautiful.

[BABYCOMEDIAN]

you could send these songs to a record aver that tell you not?

I hope you will wish you well in the music world, congratulations on your voice ..

kises,

Txell

[Ljungis]

I love this song when it's sung by you... Your voice is great, so beautiful.... And the song is also very beautiful..

[david9m]

Interesting. Garneau is just about a god for me, so this was a bit weird, but thanks. It made me appreciate the strength of his songwriting even more -- divorced from his singing style. Nice job.

[tommyenglish1]

speed up and speak up and you might be good

[RahelEndrich]

i enjoy all your covers.

[RahelEndrich]

so beautifull..

i don´t can find the right words

[RahelEndrich]

so beautifull..

i don´t can find the right words

[OrangeDork]

You are beautiful

[bisonnorth]

I am delighted to see and hear a young person follow their path, this daemon that carries you. Beautiful.

[blackysoul2006]

man your songs are the best..:X:X:X..u really have a talent..Succes on your carrier..i want all your songs..but i can;t find them..

[BigBStatz]

Nice style dude.... I know this song personally. Wow....funny how songs speak to a person. Nice job.

[Iko909]

do u have any happy songs? gosh lol

[samdoesstuff]

Shutup... Just seriously don't say anything.

[Music9will1never1die]

lame

[moke9]

colabooo colabooo+

[Apiman]

The pedo from family guy ;) Nah, but you have a good voice I just don't like the song.

[ejcanavan]

When did he actually sing ? he whispered almost the entire song.

[grimonce]

some songs requires whispering all the time.. so you might say he was whi-sining ... ;)

[xyxaxsoon]

twat!

[goldenwest07]

I love your breathy voice. So sweet and light as if your voice is dancing on air. I get so lost in the sound I almost forget to pay attention to the words. A voice I could listen to for hours. Not to put down Rufus Wainright (too much) but compared to you he sounds like a gay man whining. I don't often make it to concerts, but if you ever appeared in San Diego, I'd definitely go.

[rodaniros]

I didn´t know Peter Parker could sing!!! lol

Nice voice. =)

[bluemoods77]

i am still waiting on the next band wagon for people to jump onto first the boy bands.... now the "singer songwriters." can't anyone just think for themselfs for a change?

still this is a step up from the boy bands.

[xyxaxsoon]

well you could start

[Dawnheyyeah]

One artist you should try covering is Antony and The Johnsons. His songs are unbelievably poignant and I know you would do justice to them, especially "Starfish". Thanks for sharing your talent and love of music with us.

[kittnluver]

Beautiful voice. Looking forward to your next video. Have a nice day!

[DawnVesper]

dude your awesome you should try and sing "Hallelujah" by Jeff Buckley it sounds like your type of song!

[beebutterfly09]

How soothing your voice is,Im amazed!

[CorpseDahlia]

wow amazing. I can feel all the passion in your voice. Keep it up. :)

[jrusso7660]

I loved the last two songs I've heard you sing. One little thing. Please use a little less breath in your vocals. I would cut the tracks for your keys separate of your vocals since it's affecting your breathing everytime you play.

Also, you need to absorb some of the ambient noise in the room.

[unisexbow]

you have talent bro

[IonDubh]

excellent

[horses00horses]

Wow, So Relaxing I Love it.

[imegafarted]

your voice sounds similar to james blunt in this song. very nice.

[ColdDev4]

your falsetto 'not' sounds horrible and out of tune. maybe the pitch of that note needs to be a bit higher

apart from that i liked it

[horses00horses]

Haha. Your Funny. Where Is Your Singing Video?

[jewpuppy07]

i love your voice..it's so calming =)

heh you're also very cute

[CelticChink]

"swoon"

[SHADEPICASSO]

weak ass voice

turn it up a little more

[garycuk]

I love 'The Island' by Chris Garneau. It's his on his next CD but he did it for the feastoffools on youtube! x

[sportsportsport]

its too wet, and the vocals are weak. Sorry.

[Tecobelli]

I hope your dreams come true. Keep loving the music, it shows in every note you sing.

[emellees]

OMG, I really love your voice to this song .

[bkmath]

I would LOVEEEE to hear you sing Baby's Romance....it was would be absolutely amazing! You are incredible and I'm PRAYING that you one day get picked up and signed because you are breath takingly amazing

[GwLDS]

wow the soul in your voice speaks out the power of it just beautiful

[sk8tradam]

you have an amzing voice omg!

[GFNatali]

You have an amazing, wonderful,incredibale voice, really you are so talented guy!!!

[Seanorexia]

Brilliant. You and Chris both deserve to be heard.

[MissSnoopi]

This little man should be famous!!

[lottabubbles725]

Ok, I need to buy a CD of yours. I'd also want to tape pictures of you all over my bedroom wall...but I'm a tad too old for that, plus hubby probably wouldn't like that too much. So I'll have to settle for listening to you touch so many hearts.

Thanks Matt!

[ispanico23]

people, this guy really is a miracle... I love his voice...

[sethco88]

Oh, I liked you from before... And I love you even more from this.

[s9pohann]

well done. but not even close to chris' charme!

[sandyman1671]

Can't seem to say what i want but best of luck in all you do. we are waiting for a CD.god bless

[castonguay111]

Matthew Luke As ever each time you sing you nail me to my pain. Your choice for songs that touch the soul and your emotional rendition are amazingly efficient. A part of our mind wish that a record company finds you soon because you deserve it so much with such a great talent. Another part of our souls wants to keep for ourselves those magical moments. Again I was crying deeply listening to this new song in your repertoire.

[XxshashyxX]

ok sum1 from a record company see diz dis guy shud b famous!!!!

[manus21]

I haven't heard this song before...but I like it. And it's good to see some new videos of you :)

[kowtpr187]

Thanks for this artist info. I listened to the original and it reminded me of radiohead's "motion picture soundtrack". His other songs are amazing as well.I like "island" alot. I like how you made it your own though! Good job!

[robotmichelle]

the emotion is coming more and more from your voice, in your voice and that is compelling.

[Darkwintersmoon]

I just love listening to you sing;its the energy you have in your music so so so beautful

[tawndu]

you are brilliant. love your renditions.

[23Allie23]

You've done it again!! I just dont know how you do it all. I bet someone could throw any song at you and you would make a better cover of it than the original artist did! I would also like to thank you for introducing people here on youtube to check out some little-known but amazing artist. I must say, I can't wait to see what you have in mind next!

[TheOtherMrsLiebscher]

Matthew Luke Sandoval, you are my new piano teacher and don't even realize it. This was beautiful, as always - but this one's just brilliant. Will check out Chris Garneau now for sure... Much love from Amy in Canada. Thanks, Matthew for all your videos.

[accioinkpen]

Your voice sounds absolutely beautiful on this one. So emotional and moving.

[anticky]

Very good, I think you should do Chris' Blue Suede Shoes next.

[XAVIERKAKY]

5 stars!

[mrmartinmartin]

Ahhh awsome. And looks like you got a pair of Ultimates there :o)

[trlstaff]

Alex 13 page nailed it...good stuff Matthew!

[alex13page]

Thank You Matthew... this was what I missed in your last videos... :')

Greetings alex.

[gloomyjez]

i find chris garneau's voice to be annoying as hell. you did a good job tho.

[GROWMUSIC]

very nice. you ever wanna give me some singing tips, go right ahead!
