[pbhushanbsb]

THE SOUL was fanttaaasstic dude ! U made it your own..GOOD .But the original has some differences, for eg. there's a double beat too in the percussion and the chords in the bridge are also different ..i've covered it too ..though my audio is bad but u can still check it out(It's not at all perfect but the percussion part is the same as Andy).

Cheers.

[tsj22001]

[Slowhand1981]

In the Intro u should tap on the harmonics instead of playing the strings but anyway, very nice cover! Keep it going!

[countsmyth]

Timing a bit off, but amazing job man!

[blackbeatlezeppeler]

that was a great cover bro :), although the song itself isnt as hard as most people think.

[Psykryph]

Extremely sloppy cover. And yes, I can do better.

[parkuh]

Yawn .......

[canucktheclown]

Than do it. Put up or shut up.

[InevidibleMe]

It's a cover it's supposed to be 'not so perfect'....

[zepulece]

i think....

music don't is a race :)

maybe it's just my idea

@baldrick650

nice job man ;)

work up

[jakshob]

How many guitarists are needed to make a guitar solo? 10.. 1 to do it and 9 to say that they also could do it.

[lip333]

ROFL!

[thewreckedup]

@jakshob lol i did it watch my cover... m a 14 yr old kid give it a look :)

[rockerguitarEC]

great song!, good cover!

[Fleshjam]

I am shit at this!!! Why can't my brain work like that??? =O

[Kovaji]

Practice, practice, practice.

[Clinton072615]

that was good, you should check out my cover

[MoRr1SoNNN]

mm bad cover : /

[anich019]

how the hell can u say this is a bad cover. it like to see you attempt this.

[TheOneWhoGives]

god damn so many people are good at this. lol. im jealous

[iamrichlol]

I have that guitar in the same colour :)

awesome cover

[iain9876]

Good cover.

[zeocrow]

cooooooooooool, congratz!!

[zoodog12345678]

dude all you people are on cra dont listen to those assholes dude ur really good if i could play that id be sooo happy

[m00nkinftw]

slap harmonics on the 12th fret at the beginning, not open strums. For the rest its a good cover!

[MSsquared]

yeah i agree

[canucktheclown]

One thing is that you tap the string, not strum it at the beginning.

[rRo12345]

this is not 100% good but...don´t matter...keep trying =]

[2baganush]

ignore the comments from thoes few pricks chances are they cant even play the song..keep up the work was really good

[damuffinmanx]

hey man, great cover of this song! i want to go about covering this, can i ask what tuning you play it in?

[moonunitenar]

low to high, DADGAD :)

[BryanSMeyer]

boooooooo! you stink, grow some hair

[coolguyzak]

Are you serious?

[JCthrowdownhour]

grow up

dick

[weejasper]

never mind that benjamin guy.. it's funny but I think my version is better, but that's neither here or there..you did good enough to learn how to play this difficult piece and post it..

typical that the most critical folk dont even play

good effort mate and 5* cause this job aint easy

[baldrick650]

Cheers mate, will check out your cover now!

[jimbo303030]

good effort mate well done

[BenjaminSommerDK]

Everyone who practices this song, try to remember the rhytmic parts better!.. its actually quite important... especially the first thing that happens in this particullar song.... if not correct - i go somewhere else. but nice trying anyhow...

[baldrick650]

Not being funny mate but this is a cover, im not Andy Mckee and this is my individual interpretation of Drifting, besides, where is your attempt? Exactly.

[GrAp3S0da]

FUcking nice bro.

[anyphali]

nice playing man...smooth...now go for the details...!!!

[charlietuna34]

well done

[pieces4809]

ur good

[SharkaIsGayy]

CANCER! haha just playin..

[InvisibleEnemy211]

damn jerk.

nothing to joke about!

[SharkaIsGayy]

haha i know i know but come on...i couldnt help it =)

[bodmondude]

holy shit. Just imagine for one god damned second, if you had cancer and some one said that to you... How can u friggen type something out like a slip of mouth? You have full control.

[BornToPlayGuitar]

nice work!

check my cover ;)

[Sakulla]

compliments to you

[SHARJO23]

very nice and aawesome acoustic geetar!

[JohnsonJ93]

really good

but needs to be bit slower

[marquesdesintra]

very well done... well, maybe slower... but a excelent work

A hug from Portugal

[darknessevilfall]

thats so cool dude ... but u play a little bit faster than andy...try to be a little slow and it'll be just like original....  :)

[metallicp]

nice job bro.. but your skipping some notes !

[KPride21]

hmm i thought drifting was like a super hard song only andy mckee could play but seeing as all these other people can play it.. maybe i should give it a try .. =)

[lloydicus]

that's really not bad. well done!

[sgt7111]

you are a tad bit sharp, most people probably cant hear it though

[CDeoD]

if anything its a bit flat but i can't tell, and really noone else with perfect pitch can tell due to the quality of the audio, and you would be surprised how many people have a good relative pitch ability.

[fattybumpo]

good job, but it kinda speeds up at the first..

[3nZoTheKing]

DAMN, your version sounds more relaxing than the original

[jacknife10000]

Nice, but you didt do any of the harmonics except on the first and last notes of the song lol

[Supakiller666]

Incredible... just like him! Bald and everything xD

Ok bad joke... congrats =)

[Jayflip103190]

That was a very nice cover man, that's a hard song to cover. You played very well, keep it up

[TristanHoornenborg]

nicely done,,,

[xFreyaBobsx]

its really nice cos it doesnt sound exactly like andys, but its still got a really great sound to it. when people try to copy it exactly as hes done it, they always seem to get it wrong..

[edafade]

wonder if anyone has ever told you this but you look like erik mongran.

[KurtSandford]

Haha the first half a second loaded and froze for about .5 of a second and i had that same thought.

[RaulFelipeDelgado]

nice vid man!

great cover, think you can check mine?

ty man

cheers

[xxwanting]

fantastic

most people can't do the tapping in the beginning, either running it together so you can't hear it properly or tapping as one hand. but you pulled it off, dude.

[domigoul]

IT semms so easy but !

thanks !

[WHSCougar2002]

Wow, your very good, keep it up!

[myguitarstyle]

i knew i wouldn't be the only one to say something about this dude looking like erik mongrain, lol!

[paul3point14]

Nice one :)

[mansid99]

man ur tempo is going a bit 2 fast. u need to relax and feel the music a bit more

[just6822]

Actually, his temp is almost right on with the recording. The actual youtube video is slower then the original recording from the CD.

[gibbybm666]

sweet hair !

[manafisto]

sweet hair !

haha

u cool

[phishyphishlet]

thats not 100% rite but gud work

[turbis]

Is that with steel or nylon strings? I love the sound on the lower strings

[lordazuzu]

Steel, the bad recording is cutting down high tones.

[Adamburn]

nice work man!check out my cover!I just uploaded it yesterday!thanks!

[thAtOneGuyHAHAHA]

Great job, but only one thing. It's a slap harmonic on the 12th fret, instead of strumming on the first part.

[Evenhurst]

Its Erik Mongrain!

[3dscott]

slow it down just a smidgen.

But dam man nice job

[05cyborg]

Great cover man... 9/10

It's always cool to see someone add a little diversity while playing it but still keep it just as good.

instead of strumming tho in the intro you should slap d,g,b and e on the 12th fret.

[weencent]

haha ur bald xD just kidding thats sweet playing

[halo3d]

too fast.. but good job

[PopLockIn29]

hm, i like it but u have to hold ur speed... 8(

[Xanaden]

thats a realy freakin awesome cover! 5 stars!!

[saib108]

that's mad good, man, you should check out/listen to/play justin king, if you already dont! you definitely have the style and skills down, sick action

[SmokinMesa]

Very impressive but like some others said try to nail the percussion and the tapping (sounds like you're using nails a few times)

[el3m3nt43]

the best cover

[spencerandres001]

great job man. one of the best covers ive seen.

[apriswajaya]

dude thats frigin awesome man! 5 stars

[hmmmindeed]

hey that was absolutely brilliant! How did you learn to play it? Can I find the music anywhere? Thanks

[adz12]

good cover

[Ic3c0ld]

Good job. Keep on practicing and you will master it completely.

[jdiggitty]

Good job. You should try and work those right hand percussions in during the melody though and you're getting a lot of secondary tones with you hammer-on on the G(3rd) string. You can EQ a lot of that out though.

Have you tried "Tribes" by Preston? You could probably kill that now if you haven't

[JMo93]

holy crap. you are AMAZING

[baldrick650]

Thanks for all your comments guys, appreciated

[Sycamine]

one of da best iv seen. hey u look alil like erik mongrain.

[bjnamk]

kudos to u rick. best cover i've seen yet of andy's classic. luv'd the li'l variance you added to make it your own. you'll go places!

[thegroovemonster]

why does everyone just strum the strings in the drumming bit at the beginning? it needs to be a 12th fret harmonic! nice job otherwise - check out my version if ur interested.

[coleen222]

the best cover in the whole of the WORLD!! xx

[pentamaroonis]

nice job!

[baconboy666]

Awesome stuff!!

[tingisu]

nice arange!!!

[JJFRASERJJ]

nice one my friend on the mark check out what i did with his song for my father

[kreeshanman]

nice!

[dennisjoergensen92]

you have to practice any more!

[solidusm88]

Nice dude! :D

[mjkelly81]

great mate, ive just set out on the hard long road to try and learn to play this awesome song!!

[danagin]

Why would you call him a fag. Because he "ripped" off someone elses music. I think he did a great job of playing a beautiful song. It's not like he ripped it off to make money or something, he played it be cause it is a beautiful song and he was captured by it. Otherwise you are just insecure about yourself, weather it be your guitar playing skill, or your own hederosexuallity.

[lionking15]

wtf, lick his ass then

[TheGreenDivision]

nice playn good job go on ;)!

[IlikedYourVid]

Definentaly the best Cover.

That was really close to the real thing, but I think the guitar does it a bit?

Anyway, really good job! (y)

[madchops82]

nice job man...I love this song

[rchlatkn]

my bro is the best guitar player in the world!!

[dasdeeboot]

actually andy would be then since this is a cover correct?

[clockwork21]

WU TANG CLAN AINT NOTHIN TO FUCK WITH

[Lavevode]

fag.

[KaykaaS]

Lavevode, you probably can't play guitar right?

so, bugger of you big flappy donkey dick

On topic, nice done.

[parkuh]

Prouder and prouder - thats my boy ;-)

[NEEDHELPsorta]

You have done the best cover I've seen so far.

Great timing by the way.

I mean you started to rush a few times but, you resolved it when you did.

However, like me, you need a better guitar.

The intonation on your lowest string (don't know what it's tuned to) is off, like all of the strings on my guitar.

Good job.

Where did you get tabs?

[tylernautica]

2 thumbs up ~ what kinda guitar do you have =)

[baldrick650]

i have an ovation celebrity, thanks for the comment

[deathshore]

Amazing.

[dpooliod]

keep on keepin on

[concretedildo]

quite amazing sir

[in736ra]

right on! enjoyed listening to it... seems to have more heart out of a bedroom compared to the studio!

[monkeyslipbanane]

NICE! very clean, good job, youre pro

[CedriqueJ]

I like it.

Its better that some other covers
