"United States" acoustic cover

[Glass2007]

Great cover. During the part where you sing "I dont have to run scared no more" if you put your middle finger on the low e string on the fret between the other two frets you are playing (for the octive) it makes it sound baddass. Thats how billy plays it anyways

[corgan59]

you play and sing very very Well. I still Believe that woman sing more better the pumpkins songs ;)!

[AcidBogey]

I love this! All your Smashing Pumpkins covers are brilliant but this and Geek USA are my definate favourites!

[SonicAntiHero]

pretty good :)

[Porcelina777]

Great. Sounds kind of bluesy with an acoustic guitar.

[snafuedem]

You've inspired me to play guitar and I'm a huge fan of Smashing pumpkins. Just saw them live twice last month. Maybe I can post a video that is half as good as this. Great cover. Cant believe you attempted is acoustically nice!

[Nickd83]

awesome you have the hands of billy or at least his talent has invaded your soul in a good way either way you are awesome

[UbiquitousGeek]

Your Pumpkins videos are awesome. Hope to see some more soon. You're a natural with the guitar. Too many people on YouTube butcher Pumpkins songs, but you pull them off with an original sheen. Keep it up.

[Ishu1979]

Great cover, In the part ''Well I... feel alive...''' its so difficult to sing (to me), but you got it! you have a nice tone :)

Hey, did you left? :(

[ScarTissuetwo]

that is some awesome guitar work

[toringbearer]

except when I totally butcher it. hahaha. But thanks.

[Robandrews10]

[Ishu1979]

Hey Girl, did you left again?

Hi everyone. Just to let you know, Toringbearer sings vocals on a cover of "Ma Belle" submitted by Somaziro for the Zeitgeist cover song contest that I helped put together. I am inviting all Pumpkins fans to listen to the covers and vote for your favorite. The best cover song as voted by fans wins some cool SP merch :). You don't have to listen each song in its entirety, but give them all a fair chance before you hit the stop button. To listen go to ThePumpkins dot net + hit 'Zeitgeist Contest'.

[Zeitgeist33]

Yeah very nice cover and very cool end el final fue el mejor keep rocking

[m6234]

i think that the angels doesn't have face so keep on and don't stop...take care

[stevemv69]

good work, i know it kills playing that song acoustic.

on the outro try using your index finger more so its more 8-10-10, 7-10-10, 0-10-10

for the final three chords just strum downwards

[11111phil11111]

Good work my friend! Sounded great. I see we're both in the Zeitgeist contest. Good luck. With that voice you really deserve to win. I love your other videos too. Anyway, 5 stars from me.

[Menrad76]

great stuff, good choice with this acoustic version !

[onkel44lekno]

This song works great as a acoustic one, didn't really think it would. Great playing, amazing voice!

[corgantron]

Awesome, didn't think United States would work so well as an acoustic cover, well done.

[msevrens]

so i dont get it. Are you against showing your face or something? Btw, i never liked this song till i heard this version.

[toringbearer]

Thanks! That's not the reaction I was expecting XD

And I just don't show my face because I used to and I got messages from creepy guys (not trying to say I'm hot or anything, hahahahha, I think they just sent messages to any chick on youtube) and it just freaked me out a little. Ever since I stopped showing my face they've left me alone :)

[msevrens]

haha yeah I dont really have to worry cuz i guess it doesnt work the other way huh. Girls dont really have that creepy quality that boys pull off so effortlessly.

[toringbearer]

It truly is a talent ;)

[MVPS]

U Rlz! <3

[talal785]

Very bold to it like this! Good job!

[HethenBlackhand]

not bad, one of the interesting things about your vids is your not afraid to do some of the heavier stuff acoustic.

[toringbearer]

:) hehe, thanks!
