Awesome rendition guys ! It reminded a lot of Nancy Wilson's version of this song on her 'Live at McCabes Guitar Shop' album. Keep up the awesome work !
You guys are inspiring.....I sing in a rock band and have wanted for years to learn the guitar and strike out to do acoustic stuff like this. Thanks for being on here and showing that it's possible. Great song!!
Wow! Nice take on PG's classic. You are very talented... to be able to take all that Peter does with a full complement of instruments and voices and make it sound great with, well, with the both of you.
BTW: This song is so hard to find as a cover, yet it is so beautiful. I think your acoustic version does it justice.
I've watched a bunch of your videos now, and each time I'm hoping for some sort of response from the 'audience'. Seriously, I don't get why people don't just go there to see you guys.
Mike, Let me just say you guys are wicked awesome. Lots of talent and its so natural and not forced. Way to keep it awesome for us acoustic players out there! I'm such a big fan of you guys i wouldn't even yell freebird if I saw you live and man that's saying a lot cause somebody always gotta be that guy....rock on.
Mike, you're AMAZING! You should do a cover from a local Des Moines band called The Nadas. One of the lead singers coincidentally has the name Mike too. Keep it up man.
This is one of the all time great song ever and you guys did a great job on the cover! Well done, most covers I've seen of this song fall short. Awesome!
Mike I saw this video nearly a year ago before that time I didn't know anything about you I'm a big fan of Gabriel and a musician singer songwriter myself this version is a really excellent version....an incredibly simple arrangement that highlights the beauty of the song......I believe you should be very proud of your own delivery!
Wow, what a fantastic version. Brought a tear to my eye, particularly the angelic falsetto outro, just splendid. Thanks Mike and Jeff, I'm now hooked on you both.
Mike, with your incredible feeling and your magic voice, why don't you try to sing "Hallelujah -JB" or "hunting high and low -a-ha". I'm sure, it would be wonderful.
Been thinking about covering this song. Very well done. Only thing at about 1:39 what the hell waitress! Can't you see there trying to make some beautiful music? lol And again at 2:09, some dude in a plad jacket! Seriously, some one tell that guy Mr. Belding called from Saved By The Bell and wants that thing back. Anyways, great cover guys. Rock on!
The only other cover of this song that I've heard was done my my brother, who is quite a musical phenom himself. He blew me away with his version, but with your amazing voices, I am just speechless. This morning, after a deep dream which featured this song playing in the air, I awakened and set out to find an acoustic version online... And I discovered you guys for the very first time. Beautiful! Maybe some Phil C or Mike & the Mechanics next (all x Genesis)? You're the ones who can do it right!
And thank you for posting this. Not sure if it was my request to hear it from you that sealed the deal, but for whatever reason, I am very happy that it is now up here. :)
Hey Mike, Nice job! I can relate how hard it is to sing and play that song at the same time. They guitar rythm really fights the melody on that one. We had contemplated doing that song (The Jeffrey Gaines acoustic version, if you haven't heard it you should check it out.) but it never came together.
Good luck with "One"! :) Saw you posted "Here Comes the Sun". I almost posted that instead of this. I still may get around to posting it because we did it at that same gig.
WOW- your versions are always better to me than the originals and your sound experience shows. Both of you play phenomenal! Mike, your voice is untouchable- fantastic! I'd love to see you guys live one day. Rock on!
love it....the bass needs to come up in all your mixes..just sayin'

Still not too sure why you guys play there, it sounds like the most boring crowd ever!
You guys do some of the best covers I have heard live or on Youtube.
Ever try covering Extreme, Cinderella, AIC?
