This is one of my favorite covers of any song ever! I keep coming back to it every few months. I love how spastic and into it you are, yet still totally ripping it up and keeping a solid beat. Very entertaining! I didn't think someone could love this song as much as I did. But it's quite obvious you like it. :)
Most of the covers try to make Arcade Fire songs sound smoother, which I think it's a big mistake, I believe what makes the band unique is the roughness and emotional singing. And I think you captured this essence like no one else! =D
that was intense.. and very good.. you play very well too.. in an unconventional way..kinda like me but youre alot better. good job and thanks for sharing
I came on to YouTube looking for a kick-ass cover of Tunnels. This was the top hit, and exceeded my paltry expectations like crazy. This was fantastic and completely encapsulated the spirit of a fully-orchestrated track with one guy and a nylon-string guitar. Thank you for this. Thank you thank you.
Defiantly an INTERESTING video. I've never seen someone play the guitar quite so much like a cello-or string bass before--at least not so well. However, I do feel that of any cover of Wake Up I have found, this stays true to the feel of an Arcade Fire song.
I will admit, I kept expecting a sting to snap and blind someone, namely the musician!
yes it was indeed an incredible rendition of Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels) but please, don't ever give this man a record deal. let him stay the ever wandering bohemian gypsy artist he is. unsoiled and outstanding from the crowd.
[by the way i don't know why but the makes me think of Franz Schubert.]
very well done, you're very enthousiastic and authentic. If arcade fire themselves would've listened if they were told they were a bit mad, i'm sure they wouldn't have been that good. Good luck outliving nick drake then =)
dude you rock!
