  • 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?

  • bassist could throw in a "your eyes" every so often... just sayin' but great cover!

  • speechless....awesome job!

  • Giving me chills here, man....

  • If i was there, i would have asked for an autograph from you guys

  • wow, sick

  • Incredible!!!! Congratulations!!!

    

  • This is as good or maybe a little better than the original. Amazing work!

  • Zero dislikes. Damn straight.

  • Thank's Mike and Jeff . I like it.

    Fred - France

  • Every time you hit those high notes you hit my heart, you are too big for for complimentary adjectives!

  • 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 !

  • this is an a mazing cover. Very hard capture on just acoustic

  • I would like to humbly request you play some Nirvana. Anything off their Unplugged CD would rock tits.

  • Oh just kill me now....I accidentally clicked on your Boston tribute to Brad and 2 hours later I am still listening! You are incredible.

  • 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!!

  • Why is the counter only counting my views?

  • Yeah! Watch-it-there-Robbin!

  • Great job

  • Really enjoyed this cover of a classic Peter Gabriel song. Awesome

  • Pretty sure if I lived in SLC I would be eating pizza on the regular basis :))

  • This was just fantastic! Bass player had some great lines!

  • 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.

  • awesome rendition. i like the ending

  • This song is so special to so many...including me...

    Michael, your rendition...your voice ... is beautiful...I am moved.

    Thank you

  • 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.

  • @handsomepete When I'm there I go crazy, just doesn't really make it to the mic I think.... :)

  • feckin amazing once again

  • 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 this was fantastic. Prob the best I've heard on here so far.

  • hope those ppl at the pizza joint realize how fortunate they are. Nice work, man!

  • @2of6

  • I'm totally amazed! And I do most of your covers. Sherrill

  • you have not even started singing yet, Ima hit the "like" button anyway, an amazing performance from you is guaranteed .

    btw love the rocket man cover!

    Tom - Australia

  • wow amazing stuff guys, hard song to cover you guys pull it off outstanding great job keep the good tunes coming guys.... jeff from idaho

  • 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.

    Peter - France

  • Both are great songs. Maybe eventually!

  • how about strangers by the kinks?

  • @PS211272 Exactly :)

  • 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!

  • WELL DONE!!!!!

  • I showed this video to my mom and she said "well he's much better than peter gabriel." Haha. Thanks Mike and Jeff, you two make beautiful music.

  • Heh. Somehow I doubt Peter Gabriel would feel at all threatened by the comparison.

  • I bet he would Mike. Don't you know how good you really are????????

  • 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!

  • that was very good man! rock on! awesome on the high notes! your voice is great!

  • Thanks for posting this. I am a solo guitarist on Long Island.

    Love the song but your version gave me the motivation to try it for my audience.

  • As always, great work, man. I wish I could sing like that.

  • 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. :)

  • u should play in full stadiums instead of pizzerias...

    u are great...fantastic job...5 stars...

    PLM

  • I could not agree more !!!!

  • Thanks for all your nice comments, Dee.

  • Your very welcome guys.

  • Great job guys!

  • Once again your talent is being wasted in this pizza joint guys.

  • That was a stimulating rendition. And I really mean that.

  • Another 5star rating for you guys. Love the dynamics and the vocal work.

    Rob

  • Great tune... thanks!

  • 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.

    PS- We start working on "One" next week...

  • 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.

  • Freakin' AWESOME!!!! I love the way you made this song yours, with your own style and way of playing.

  • 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!

  • I am always amazed by your music. Please continue to share it with us.

  • Thanks! This one is tougher to sing than it looks. Unless it looks tough to sing. Then it's exactly the way it looks.

  • I (sort of) sing. I know this one is a bugger, and it's one of my favorites. All the more reason I'm duly impressed.

  • another great cover.
