DAMN!

[BorderSkt99]

Great [=! Btw, Do they teach guitar blues in that school, NCM?

[PurplePirateHat]

@BorderSkt99 Thanks! and I'm sorry I really don't know, but usually with my teachers they will teach me the basic foundations and then try to cater it to what I'm into. So you probably would do well, go and meet the teachers and ask if youd like. It'd be helpful. good luck!

[UltraTexan]

Nice work, I love how you slowed down the tempo, I have been trying to cover this piece and have been struggling with the vocals but when I slowed it down a touch I was able to sing it easier.

[PurplePirateHat]

[PurplePirateHat]

@carlozofjuan Thanks!

[blakeyboycedar]

A little more practice, but your cover is lovely. Personally, i prefer the song plucked rather than strummed. Makes it classier... Beautiful!

[PurplePirateHat]

@blakeyboycedar Thank you

[Matt3100]

I remember when you were reheassing this at school a couple days before this NCM, and wow, when you looked at the audience, or at least when u looked at me, your eyes were like piercing my soul, like, thats how much an impact your singing has on people, and its something to truly be admired

[PurplePirateHat]

@Matt3100 lolz :Pthanks

[Matt3100]

You have something, well, more than something, that I wish i had, when you sing, you have soo much confidence in yourself, or at least that's what it seems to me. You put so much emotioin into the words you sing whereas others may just be singing the words and have it sounds just like that, just words, when you sing I believe that you are feeling the words and singing it, not just singing words that are learned or memorized

[InshaQuraishi92]

♥ Awesome! ♥

[PurplePirateHat]

@InshaQuraishi92 Thanks!

[BlackHatProductionsx]

Wow amazing. Loved it.

You should start on making some original stuff, i bet you could reach far:o.

[PurplePirateHat]

@BlackHatProductionsx Oh wow thanks, and I've already started working on original music, just hard finding my own sound. Thanks for watching :D

[phishfan234]

terrible song choice - u dont have any grit in your voice at all for the signature "baby". also nerfing the tempo so hard made it boring.

[TheMoribund]

You play and sing with so much emotion. Just love it (: Great cover, really.

[PurplePirateHat]

Thank you so much :D

[Ash2zap]

Awesome...;-) Voice is really smooth and clear.. good one.

[PurplePirateHat]

Thanks :P

[Tric2011]

you have a really pretty voice, it just sounds a bit strained on the higher notes. overall great job!

[PurplePirateHat]

Thank you for watching !! XD

[poojix]

reallly amazing especially singing and playing the guitar at the same time....:D....you rock:Dx

[PurplePirateHat]

Thank you so much :) <3

[PurplePirateHat]

Wow that really means a lot to me, thanks :D

[plipmasterhater]

OMG you rocked!!!!!

[PurplePirateHat]

Thank you :D

[EbonyNightingale]

I think this would be amazing if you took it down a key. Your voice strains when you go to the high notes. But its still great otherwise

[PurplePirateHat]

I agree, but I think my teacher had it up to try and scrape a few extra points from the judge, but thank you for your comment :D

[boyndoweh]

[PurplePirateHat]

Thanks :D

[sherrillwallace]

I read some of the nut job comments from posters here. As a vocolist I think you did an outstanding job on a very difficult song to sing. 5 stars and keep doing what you are doing. You are good now and you will only get better. Congratulations on a job well done!

[PurplePirateHat]

Thank you very much, I really appreciate it :)

[nobrainer30]

Very nicely done...love the brilliant pause at 3:09..perfectly done...and smile if you are enjoying it.

[PurplePirateHat]

lol Thanks :P yeah we had fun performing the pauses, it made the song cooler lol

[FireDannii]

Hey.. you did this song alot of justice, In reply to your question i don't think you were off in it at all. Any small problems are covered well with vibrato. Only advice though, is to feel the notes. Sometimes it feels a little plain because you sing everything as though it has to stay in time. Maybe practice a version doing it really laid back and rubato (free) dont follow a metronome, you have a lovely voice and the music should follow you rather than vice versa. Your teacher will be proud!

[PurplePirateHat]

Wow, thank you very much for your comment and advice, I really appreciate it, I will keep that in mind :)

[chocolatepopcorn1212]

that was borderline tear shedding. how did you get in this position? im sorry but you CANNOT ruin another seal song like that again hunn. sorry.

[FireDannii]

There is no need for negativity.. perhaps you do not like all the thousand versions of Leonard Cohen's Hallejujah but good music is not for everyone

[baldiepaul]

NICE JOB WELL DONE *****

[PurplePirateHat]

Thank you :)

[broberts1109]
