WHOBLU - You were the first star I found on You Tube - years ago - I still enjoy your stuff.. but Tiffany Alvord, BoyceAvenue, and Savannah Outen are now making a living off of the You Tube fame - you had them all beat by a mile.
this is an absolutely fanstastic performance. I love your voice and rhythm and phrasing. One tip for you: You are missing one chord. In the first verse, on "night" of "night", it should turn to an Emaj7. Or an regular E major will work. But you need to switch from the Em7 that comes before it. Listen to Dave Matthews play it and you will see that I am right. But dude you are way better than me. Great performance. I can't wait to hear your other videos.
@pseudoepigraphi Thanks so much....you are right the Emaj works well. Im not playing it in drop D like he does in this, I probably should have, cause many of the critcs have let me know about it....lol thanks for watching
@whobludaphot Actually I also play it in standard tuning and I thought all of the "drop D" comments were stupid. You sound awesome. I noticed that when you play it in the duet with your friend, I think you do change the chord there. My voice is not as good as yours, so I do not record myself. I think I play the guitar pretty well though. Love your friends lead guitar in the duet. Please let him know.
vocals are actually nice. C. Daughtry & J. Mayer could EASILY out sing you on this, but you are almost as good as Dave Matt. here, with your purer vocals.
dude all your dave covers are so great. but see what im thinkin is in every video you are in that room with all the band stuff. and in the lights there is always like a fog everywhere. but i know you arent running a fog machine. Hahaha my guess is you blaze it up big time and then go record dave songs. thats why they are such good authentic covers. especially a song like this that you pretty much have to be high to play right haha
dude all your dave covers are so great. but see what im thinkin is in every video you are in that room with all the band stuff. and in the lights there is always like a fog everywhere. but i know you arent running a fog machine.

@lookitsamatt I wish i could say that was from blazin, lol its a little fog sometimes too much...lol If I blaze it will be a sloppy mess, or i wouldnt even play just eat and watch tv...lol
Hey man regardless of what people say.. your are great and btw you have inspired me. I have been playing guitar a while, just not really singing. I saw your seek up and learned how to play and sing it. Thanks bro, love your work.
cool maybe u can post it so we can see how exciting u are....since like most of the big mouths here you have no videos up to back anything u say up......keep hating enjoy
oh and to the artist of this video - just to save you time, so you don't have to read all this nonsense between me and verb that completely convoluted my message and went off on a tangent...I think you are awesome and this is def one of the top covers of this song on youtube. Ironically, it is precisely because of how good this cover is that i was surprised by that one note and felt the need to comment...that's all.
you are the small minded one considering you took my criticizing one note as me discrediting the artist entirely...so actually, it's YOU lol...you're one of those people that loves to go on youtube and bitch at others any chance they get, trying to sound sophisticated, opinionated, and passionate...probably because no one will ever attribute such qualities to you in real life. and of course, now that you have no real defense, you block. go on lol indulge in your internet personality my friend
wow...didnt know playing a cover could cause so much conversation....I have to agree dave is in a place all his own, and i would never claim to even hold a candle to his amazing talents....have a good new year
Hey foolish one. My comment is still there for you yo read again. I said he was dam close as good as Dave. And he is or else no one would be comparing his style and performance to DM. If I was to upload a video of me attempting this song no one would compare me to Dave. Why, because I suck. He didn't suck that all I saying. He rocked goodbye. Now lets stop this crap.
I'm reading these haters in here. It's crazy because this guy is awesome. Smooth playing, on key with a complex song. He captured all the subtleness of Dave. The reason everyone is comparing him to Dave is because his performance is dam close as good as Dave's. Now because of him I have to go practice.
Thank you....Its ok i dont mind the haters none of them ever have a video to back up a thing they say.....i never claimed to be even close to dave is truely is in a class of his own.....i find some of the comments funny though like i dress like him cause i wear a t shirt of button down, now thats reaching lol thanks for the comment friend
it's all great except he doesn't hit that one falsetto note in the verses which is such an important aspect of the song i think. First time he ddidn't hit it i thought he messed up but then he kept hitting the wrong note later on again...strange cuz he's an awesome singer i'm sure he CAN hit it
at 1:15.."i am at your feeeee.....EEt oh.." He hits some note but it's not the note from dave's original version. i think the note dave hits in the original is much better sounding
Dude I'm reading ur comments on this mans cover. It's funny that with so much disapproving comments you made, ur comments are extremely detailed. You know why? Well I 'll tell u. YOU CAN'T STOP LISTENING TO THE MAN!!!! I bet you have played this video over & over again. Even sighting an exacted video count 1:15. Of all the people that rock youtube he's one of the best. Where's ur cover, where's ur talent. All u have is envy. Ur might even be obsessed with this man. One of those fanantics.
LOL fool i know he can do it way better than I can, but that doesnt change the fact that what i said is true about that one specific part. and no i only watched the video twice...once for the first time and then again when the other commenter questioned me (and later agreed). If you are such a great judge yo8u must have a great musical ear, which would mean you;d hav to hear the error i'm talking about too....and if you dont, then i guess you aren't as great a judge as you think
How completly ignorant u r. So let me explain it to u. This man is a artist. He's not some memic. You hear something different and call it a error. It's called artistic interpretation.If all artist were as boring as u, where would music be. No Ray Charles America, no CCR Heard it on the grapevine or Hendrix along the watch tower. No James brown that change the sound of music itself. Dude go listen to classical. What u just wrote is the dumbest most dangerestly sad thing I ever read.
lol "dangerstly" hmm? not even gonna point out all your other terrible grammar and/or spelling, you probably know you are on the lower level of the intelligence scale. anyways, i know there is a great need for interpretation and improvisation in music, believe me...i don't need some half-literate piece of crap like you to tell me that.
And like i said, this guy is VERY good. everything he did was great (although most certainly not all the "subtleties of dave" but i'm not trying to hold people up to dave's standard that would be ridiculous). BUT, in my opinion, that one note that I was referring to is a step down from dave's version. I don't see the need to change that note because it's absolutely perfect the way dave had it, and I am certain this dude can sing it that way because as I said, he's a great singer
Just like I thought.Ur one of these small minded people that feels the need to point out fault in others just to make ur self feel better about ur worthlees life. U go right to how dumb I am. The one who mis-spelled is u. Ur 1st comment was never really about the song. One note ..are u serious! It's about ur need to try to put someone down in order to feed ur low life image. I bet u still live with ur mom. Still a virgin. Still jerk off everyday. One note? Well ur one dumbass idiot. Blocked
If you play guitar and really know how to play Dave you would disagree. This guy uses wrong chords constantly, especially in this cover. Also, his strumming patterns aren't always correct which I find disapointedly suprising seeing that he is quite good and has a million dollar setup.
am I the only one who doesnt like this dude! haha i mean christ, hes ONLY ok. in an america with shows like american idol and all the other B.S out there Im just suprised ppl are so blown away by this performance. BUT i will give it to him, once he gets into the song he gets a good feel going, but what can I say, lol I def like dave the best
This cover is just about perfect. There is just one thing that bothers me. When you play the A chord, step down the D note to the C# about half way. Other than that, everythings perfect. People dont understand that this song doesnt need to be played in drop D so anything else these hacks are saying just ignore. As if "playing more bar chords" is good advise. Anyway brilliant cover man. I enjoyed listening.
@xdmbfan2stepx, You also learn that chords and notes can be played up and down the neck. Dave Matthews has a unique style of playing, everyone can't be Dave.
Anyways, very nice cover. Your voice blew me away. Keep rockin'. Where were you at? If you don't mind me asking, looks like a club or something.
Great cover man, this is one of my favorite songs and I'm trying to learn it. Would you mind clearing it up if your version is in Drop D or Standard? Thanks man and keep up the good work!
Bro, I think I sat here and listened to every song so far that you have posted. You are amazing at what you do! I'm truly inspired by you cover songs for DMB. Keep up the good work my man!
When you say "feels alright" or "feeling high" I believe you need to open the note at the end of the strum. Hopefully you know what I mean. Otherwise, VERY well done.
I love DMB, but I actually think your voice might complement this particular song better. If you were to somehow bust out the violin solo, I'd be going freaking nuts right now.
how can anyone even say anything about your covers dude. you're phenomenal. the stupid little kids that post "ah, it's wrong, da-da-da" are the stupid little kids you see at guitar center sucking ass. or older dudes who suck balls at playing so they learn theory to sound like they know what they do. for those naysayers... let's see your fucking videos. stupid punks. but hey... that's why there's only very few good artists in the world.
my all-time favorite song by Dave Matthews (he's God, by the way). *winks*
fantastic cover; you play and sing beautifully. i bought an acoustic-electric the same shape as yours simply 'cuz it looked like one that Dave has. hahahaha!
That is amazing bro, I don't know if I could play it as well as you, but if you don't mind giving me the tabs, I would appreciate it more than you know. Thanks in advance.
Man these last two comments just seem like you are both really jealous and pissed off like your dave personal long time friends or something, get a life.
how can you be insulted, this is much respect for dave when you can sing and play very well. feel insulted when kids who can't sing worth shit cover dave.
You actully sound like a fool..These vids are here to enjoy if u dont like it move on, but learn to keep your little mouth shut.I'm 30 years old, If anyone here thinks I need to act like Dave matthews, or i dress like him cause I wear t-shirts and button downs with jeans then you people are as dumb as you sound.Enjoying someones music and enjoying to play it is one of the beauty's of music..so for u to say u are insulted u have to be fucking kidding me..move on kid, nothing here to insult anyone
Oh I just looked at your page, no wonder why u are insulted, your Dave covers suck and u cant sing worth of shit and u need to hit a gym, now i understand, sucks to be a lefty too....how insulting...I'll give u some free advice, if u gonna comment on my stuff, yours better be much better..i want everyone here to check his vids out...insulting...lol
Yeah dude his covers are horrible. The only point he is trying to make is that he is playing the songs the "right" way. Who fucking cares? Dave himself would tell you he plays the guitar in a unconvential way. I don't see anywhere that whobuldaphot says he is a Dave tribute act.
Thank you, finally someone who thinks before he speaks...I always said i might play they different than dave, like this song is in drop d, i chose not to play it that way..etc... thanks for listening
Totally..its funny i saw on a dmb message blog70 posts about me,that i wear the same cloths as dave i dont play anything right, it was funny,it just shocked me that some people really have nothing better to do.i find it funny,i put these vids up cause like everyone else i'm a fan, and the greatest thing about music is that we can all share it, and some people will like and it and some won't, the ones who bash are the ones who are jealous.i enjoy playing it and hope people enjoy listening to it
4:43 onward is killer. For all budding musicians out there THIS is the way to end a song! Nice job again, will you ever do a Dave cover w/ all the instruments, like your originals? It would be cool. But take a bit of time to learn the violin! Bet you'd get good at that, too! Keep it up.
Best cover of this song on Youtube. Can you tell me where you got the chords you use. All other versions dont sound as good as yours. Awesome sounding chunky guitar, what kind?
hey man great job on these songs,I'm a big DMB fan,but since I've come across your videos I seem to be watching them lately more than the originals,I've seen dave's videos hundreds of times or more,I like how you put your own little twists here and there,I listened to your originals to,great artist man,your a true singer/song writer not a cover artist no offense thank you
Fantastic job! A great blend of Dave's style and your own way of playing it. Do you have a tab posted anywhere for this? I've found some, but I think yours sounds the best - I just can't make out some of the chords from the small video. Thanks!
dmbtabs DOT com, if u want to learn to play it properly. Joe puts a lot of us to shame with his awesome playing, but it can sound better if played correctly ;) (still 5 stars).
WHOBLU - You were the first star I found on You Tube - years ago - I still enjoy your stuff.. but Tiffany Alvord, BoyceAvenue, and Savannah Outen are now making a living off of the You Tube fame - you had them all beat by a mile.

When you say "feels alright" or "feeling high" I believe you need to open the note at the end of the strum. Hopefully you know what I mean. Otherwise, VERY well done.
nickrog22 3 years ago
I love DMB, but I actually think your voice might complement this particular song better. If you were to somehow bust out the violin solo, I'd be going freaking nuts right now.
Keep it up!

holy crap... I gotta give it to ya, I hate it when people play dave stuff, but yeah, you gots some mad skillz..
ceetpeet 3 years ago
The reason why I like him playing is because he doesn't try to immitate Dave's voice to much. He kinda uses his own style.

how can anyone even say anything about your covers dude. you're phenomenal. the stupid little kids that post "ah, it's wrong, da-da-da" are the stupid little kids you see at guitar center sucking ass. or older dudes who suck balls at playing so they learn theory to sound like they know what they do. for those naysayers... let's see your fucking videos. stupid punks. but hey... that's why there's only very few good artists in the world.

do you have a tab of your cover? it sounds dead on. and i cant make out every chord from the video

my all-time favorite song by Dave Matthews (he's God, by the way). *winks*
fantastic cover; you play and sing beautifully. i bought an acoustic-electric the same shape as yours simply 'cuz it looked like one that Dave has. hahahaha!

Not really jealous, more like insulted. I cannot be jealous of a terd.

how can you be insulted, this is much respect for dave when you can sing and play very well. feel insulted when kids who can't sing worth shit cover dave.

he jealous, look at the crap he has up, thats all i got to say...lol

You actully sound like a fool..These vids are here to enjoy if u dont like it move on, but learn to keep your little mouth shut.I'm 30 years old, If anyone here thinks I need to act like Dave matthews, or i dress like him cause I wear t-shirts and button downs with jeans then you people are as dumb as you sound.Enjoying someones music and enjoying to play it is one of the beauty's of music..so for u to say u are insulted u have to be fucking kidding me..move on kid, nothing here to insult anyone
whobludaphot 3 years ago
Oh I just looked at your page, no wonder why u are insulted, your Dave covers suck and u cant sing worth of shit and u need to hit a gym, now i understand, sucks to be a lefty too....how insulting...I'll give u some free advice, if u gonna comment on my stuff, yours better be much better..i want everyone here to check his vids out...insulting...lol
whobludaphot 3 years ago
way to hold your own bro your covers are great
dmb1995ta 3 years ago
Yeah dude his covers are horrible. The only point he is trying to make is that he is playing the songs the "right" way. Who fucking cares? Dave himself would tell you he plays the guitar in a unconvential way. I don't see anywhere that whobuldaphot says he is a Dave tribute act.
Christopher0315 3 years ago

justse2006.
Awesome covers - i have been watching them all morning. You play anywhere on LI. I am from Holbrook and I am always looking for good live music.
Christopher0315 3 years ago
Thank you, finally someone who thinks before he speaks...I always said i might play they different than dave, like this song is in drop d, i chose not to play it that way..etc... thanks for listening
whobludaphot 3 years ago
You know what I tell people?
I ask them, "How many guitar players does it take to screw in a lightbulb?"
The answer is: "At least 2. One to screw it in, and the others to tell them he is doing it wrong."
Watch Dave play, man. he never plays the same song twice.
I did a whole series of Dave songs "my own way" about 2 years ago, I took the vids down.
Everything thinks that something needs to be played from a tab book, and played verbatum. Fuck that!
joybuzzer 3 years ago
Totally..its funny i saw on a dmb message blog70 posts about me,that i wear the same cloths as dave i dont play anything right, it was funny,it just shocked me that some people really have nothing better to do.i find it funny,i put these vids up cause like everyone else i'm a fan, and the greatest thing about music is that we can all share it, and some people will like and it and some won't, the ones who bash are the ones who are jealous.i enjoy playing it and hope people enjoy listening to it

dhavaldawg2192 3 years ago
4:43 onward is killer. For all budding musicians out there THIS is the way to end a song! Nice job again, will you ever do a Dave cover w/ all the instruments, like your originals? It would be cool. But take a bit of time to learn the violin! Bet you'd get good at that, too! Keep it up.
mchar69 3 years ago
What guitars do you use they sound so good. I really want a Taylor, but I just don't have the money. All you covers are excellent.
