[younghatter]

Choosing between the Skynyrd version and Shinedown version is like choosing between your left testicle and your right.

[unstabledavid]

lead singer is married to ronnie van zandt's daughter so all the money went to him and his wife thier original material is better than this..

[creeper49]

horrible version

[monolaura]

[mrunposible]

[mj89davis]

very good cover

[hoffmanbrian50]

deftones>shinedown

[AlwaysYoungForever]

Love it when the bass guitar rolls in <3

[trustook]

horrible tribute please don't compare this wack ass band to Deftones no comparison.

[RokkyStrife]

@trustook deftones has maybe a handful of good songs. and hasnt come out with anything good in years. if you think this tribute sucks, listen to the live, pain in the grass version. request it on 99.9 KISW(radio station, online as well) . it sounds way better.

[89stab]

@trustook shut up and enjoy the music

[fierokr3w]

fucking christ guys this was a tribute, stop bitching over which is better because no matter howmuch shit you talk someones going to disagree

[SpazFactorial]

@fierokr3w I know right, just sit back and enjoy the shit out of this people.

[dragnflysparkle]

@fierokr3w

AMEN!! TRIBUTE TO DIMEBAG!!!

[ReiReiGaloDoido]

@fierokr3w Fuck yea!

[leonsorojo]

swweeeeettt!!

[dewey510]

Great cover of the classic Skynyrd song!

[Oneway484]

This song is beauiful

[ifitrocksW]

Fucking SING IT BRO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ROCKS!!!!!

[freakmontlokal]

You must be of the Retards

[freakmontlokal]

This song is good I'll give you that. But to say that it's better than the original is just preposterous

[AlwaysYoungForever]

I have now listened to this song 20 times today. This is life.

[hihowdigut]

GOD DAMN IT!!!!!!!

[educatedcountryboy89]

some of the best vocals ive ever heard. the second best version next to the original.

[iIVIatrix]

hey guys. Can we please stop comparing Skynyrd and Shinedown please. just SHUT UP AND ENJOY THE MUSIC (:

[bananastreet123]

@iIVIatrix noob

[THEKINGMANSON6979]

@iIVIatrix fuck yes i agreed with u 200000000000000000000000% man cuz its a great song to a great person and people just need to listen and STOP THE FIGHTING OVER WHOS BETTER

[03TMAN]

@iIVIatrix so agree on that

[llvlletalJunkie90]

@iIVIatrix Yeah and Fuck Bieber

[snotrod7]

Shinedown is better live.

[kittykatklaws1988]

Gives me goose bumps! <3

[nicolhand]

Does it matter if shinedown or skynard is better? They both did an excellent job, so shut up and enjoy it.

[asktheNBAguru]

@nicolhand People are allowed to have their opinions

[Miltosth]

@nicolhand Yes with one little difference. Skynard wrote this song originally!

[Miltosth]

I got tired of listening to covers of good old songs. Don't you have imagination to write your own songs?

[dangerranger0905]

@Miltosth you cant tell me that this isnt good. This is one of the best covers out there.

[Miltosth]

@dangerranger0905 It is a good cover i agree.

[xfaolx]

@EvryDa its not better then Skynyrd's but its still good

[schneibgamer1]

I don't know what other people are thinking, this is a great cover.

[03TMAN]

awsome song



[vanhalenkicksass1984]

I wonder how many people think Shinedown wrote this...

[IfearGuitars]

@vanhalenkicksass1984 That annoys me!

[skibum12474]

Kick Ass!!!!

[Chainreactor98]

One hell of a cover! Best cover ive ever heard! ;)

[HazelCinderella]

Everytime me and my friends get in "The Circle"....we put this song on and sing our ass's off...its so amazing. Love shinedown!

[XXatletiekgirlXX]

waaaauw



[EthanakaWalter]

for the last fucking time... LYNYRD SKYNYRD recorded this song almost 40 years ago. This song is a great remake but nothing compares to the original

[grimreper540]

@EthanakaWalter the original can not be compared to the remakes but there are some remakes out their that do beat the original but i haven't heard the original of this song but it is still the better of the two as this would not exist if not for the original and that is why the original song's are better

[dirt2water69]

Amazing Rendition of Skynard ! All I can say is..... you guys KICK ASS ! Nice job of keeping it to the core. Especially dig the acoustic guitar ! This song made me check out the rest of your albums....Wow ! You now have another fan.

[grimreper540]

BEST SONG I HAVE EVER HEARD

[ac19Dark]

Just the 50time i watch this song <3

[blueeyedlesbian]

EARGASM!!!!!

[philspear24]

never knock the original artist! skynard is a legendary band shindown is tallented but in all actuality musicly compared they are on skinards left ball hair lol no affence to shinedown or thier fans because im one of them.

[texandrunk]

@philspear24 Ya think the original song is better but this is still a damn good song.

[soakupthesun2715]

I do believe Skynyrd would be proud! 

[grimreper540]

@soakupthesun2715 dam straight he would

[hardcoregamer1996]

this song discribes my life

[iluv777kstewart]

Stunning vocals!!!! <3 <3 <3



[MrPauly03]

I was playing this song and it made my dog cry, Brent you have one heck of a voice

[therockerchick951]

 LOVE

[4lifespades]

I like it when lynyrd skynyrd sang it but this is still good

[smcwainjr]

this is a great remake.

[brandonjclark78]

best version....

[ThatsAmy96]

Amazing cover but nothing beats Skynyrd's version.

[Kaciebabii]

@ThatsAmy96 How could it get any better?

[ac19Dark]

Wow ... :') so nice !

[mike227903]

Check out Mike Lowing Are you Brain washed?

[knuckles502]

it was my dads best song that he would want to here every day and me i just love it

[rymcmanus]

I'm not a Lynyrd Skynyrd or Shinedown fan at all, but I have to admit to liking this cover...

[onehotdame333]

Still T

inglen ~~~

[thedevil6961]

i love this song but there is some better versions of brent singing that are so much better...like any live ones for example

[thesongndanceman1]

shinedown is the only band that can pull this song off! awesome!!!!!!!!

[EvryDa]

This video got me into Shinedown. I saw it and I was hooked! I fell in love with Brent's awesome voice. This version is so much better than Skynyrd's!

[FMJzChAoS]

@EvryDa there is nothing better than the original but this is a good tie. no im not being a jerk im just stating my opinion. have a nice day bud

[EvryDa]

@FMJzChAoS...I have friends who have never heard the song by either (believe it or not) I played both versions for them and they all liked Shinedown better...The Skynyrd fans all liked the original...go figure.

[MrOzgood23]

@EvryDa heh, its good, but never better then the orginial. But i respect your opinion.

[bi0nca]

@EvryDa Watch your mouth!



[EvryDa]

@bi0nca...exactly what did I say that is so offensive?? I'm a fan of both bands...I just like the way Brent Smith sings it better. You have your opinion I have mine.

[Magnificoooooo]

@EvryDa how is it better? it sounds exactly the same.. its not one of those covers with its own flair, its a copy;

[EvryDa]

@Magniicoooooo...I am a huge Skynyrd fan and see them everytime they come to town. I just think that Brent Smith's voice on this one is better than Ronnie Van Zant's. Everyone always thinks that the originial is better. If Shinedown recorded this song first I'm sure everyone would think this version is better. Everyone is entitled to their opinion and we all know what they say about opinions.

[EDgaming1000]

brilliant cover, just brilliant

[Royak]

Fuck, that song would puncture my soul... if I had one. He sings with serious balls. Great song even though I hate Lynard Skynyrd.

[DragonSlayerKaloon]

keep southern rock alive

[dandandospra]

song in my life

[cannerbell1]

he feels what he sings, and when he sings it i feel it too!

[DanielBennettMusic]

Heres the leak to 'Amaryllis' if anyone wants to listen.. /watch?v=SW_2nJMqKYI it's pretty good :)

[penguin99ify]

Good remake of a classic tune. Shinedown had the good sense to choose a song that speaks for itself no matter who performs it.

[go2man1013]

@hawk86uk amen brother

[Prepwns]

what a great song for a complex world

[ThatsAmy96]

aent shivers down my spine.

[Cutiepie7817fly]

A ## 1

[ajankemal6]

this guy's voice is really awesome

[BlakeSW18]

he looks like a caveman...

but i agree tho skynards version is amazing and im grateful he made such a badass song but everytime i hear shinedowns version idk he just puts more soul into it

[kdizzle1983]

This performance blows away Skynards performance, period

[Forgeron902]

@kdizzle1983 your an idiot and shouldnt talk

[kdizzle1983]

@Forgeron902 I accept your apology

[richardthelionheartx]

this is too damn beutiful...but it doesnt have the soul that skynyrd has :3

[MsSky1969]

Such a soulful version!!!! Love this song!!!

[mskrissy511]

Sorry Skynyrd I love your version, But I have to say I LOVE Shinedowns more!

[Lovaa]

a m a z i n g

[autumnsmommy121207]

His voice <3

[firefarm376]

the skynyrd version is the original and nothing can be takin from it, but this version is as good as there's

[blackdragon6985]

has anyone noticed that the house they are playing in is from the rob zombie movie devil's rejects?

[fortysixgrand]

this one is way better than the original

[182tmcgovern]

this song is truly amazing. incredible voice.

[johnnyhammjr]

in 500 years this song still be the best

[ImaginationAlpha]

I don't really like the original that much, so...this one is better. I also feel like it has more...meaning. Feeeling.

[Samieleigh1515]

@ImaginationAlpha I completely agree. I feel like he's put so much more emotion into it. When they came and played in Boise, ID, he sang this song and it was the most intense 5min of a concert I've been to. It was a goose-bump moment for sure.

[simbasun1965]

THUMBS UP 2 U RUSTEBAKKO, COULD NOT HAVE SAID IT BETTER MYSELF

[Rustebakko]

Once again, why does everyone have to compare a song to the original? It will never be the same, this is a tribute to the original that inspired them. And its a great version of it aswell. What would the point be if they tried to do it exactly like the original?

[Anastasia97gr]

Better than the original :)

[jamescurtis3636]

this song sucks

[vadawaii]

@jamescurtis3636 ;)

[cajj91]

*improvement because of vocals*

[patterson1581]

love you brent!

[dazvic11]

I have 3 sons and this song emulates everything I want them to know... Brent Smith's voice brings a depth to this that resonates hard.. just gorgeous <3 x

[TubeS0CKz]

ok what the fuck is up with a 15 minute advertisement, bitch this is youtube fuck off.

[evelyndement]

this is my favorite song from you



[MrKyleg76]

CHECK out RED ANGEL BAND they did a cover to this and its awesome ..i promise you will NOT regret NO one else has that checked them out!!!!!

[sheetsmusic]

This is by far one of my favorite tunes of all time

[gunnymom86]

I've always been very particular about Lynyrd Skkynyrd covers but this is just beautiful.

[MrJazzmatic]

good, but nothing beats Skynyrds version...

[BO1974]

Thats Ronnie Van Zant in the pitcture right?

[28mercer]

awsome

[TinManWAHOG]

::::

[mrevil102]

Y THE FUCK WOULD PEOPLE DISLIKE THIS I LOVE SHINEDOWN

[Cannadarlin1]

I believe Ronnie would be proud...........

[sarintiger787]

god this song is so awsome

[TheGreatGuero]

Now that is one impressive cover. I expected an attempt to cover Skynyrd would just be unbearable to listen to, but apparently not. Well done, dudes!
