Not half right - heatmiser (elliott smith) cover

[stevieboy4]

flawless

[littlest1ofall]

that was beautiful :)

[goldflakedpaint123]

that was really good wow

[MrGrungeFucker]

awesome due

[mellowtonen]

amazing bro. great song choice by a great artist.

[pressureofdays]

Great job! I like your vocals

[novenoix]

wah wudhi hebat euy ... *geleng2 kepala*

[inactiveboy]

I'll agree that your vocals sound nice, but elliott played it in D, just doesn't quite sound right in E. and I mean you're covering the master so its hard to try to improve upon that, it just sounds better picked in my opinion. More intimate.

[Jamesenfrance]

I think that Heatmiser played this one in E on Mic City Sons, whereas Elliott played in D on New Moon.

[likeamisfit]

This was absolutely beautiful. I can't believe how amazing your voice is. =]

[loveERROR]

wow this is good! :)

[helloharveyoswald]

this is the best elliott cover i've seen in a loooonnnnnggg time

[MissMisery123]

I like the softness of your voice. Do you write any music because you have a unique sound u really should!

[boxcarfan97]

do you have the tabs to this anywhere?

[BelleRetenue]

I just can't get over how amazing your voice is! Not to mention, yours sounds just like Elliott's - soothing and pained at the same time, cuts straight to the heart. Beautiful!

[inertlife]

you sound just like elliott :) great cover man. i'm going to go learn it on guitar right now~

[onlyeyesabove]

i like how u strummed it instead of the way elliott did solo, but where did u get the chords?

[cuci]

i figured it out my self,when i was listening heatmiser album...Thank U so much btw

[livelylunatick]

i dont usually give these covers a chance but it was the only one and it was good right from the start im happy to see people know good talent when they see it

[itsbetterin3d]

you have a great voice

[drewstiltsok]

you're wearing his clothes, head down to toes... nice cover... i think he fingerpicks the first verse or so; there's less strumming and fewer open chords.

[izmena123]

Very beautiful voice, great job!

Love Elliot Smith.

[themango90]

So good. Tragic that the real song isn't on youtube as well.

[Rennfahrer555]

nice 5 stars...tab/chords please?

[shapoopi1]

good, got the lyrics wrong at one point though.

[laughingwizard]

very good. you know you're the only cover of this song on youtube. your voice is beautiful.

[billmaster]

absolutely wonderful... maybe one of the best covers of elliott smith ive seen... i love it :]

[chrismooremusic]

Really nice job -- I wish I could fingerpick the way you do. I just covered "Waltz #2," but I'm a rhythm guitarist at heart...

Look forward to other Elliott covers!

[sferb]

Marry me...

[amccann7]

Great cover. I'm a big fan too; I did a cover of his if you want to check it out! Elliott lives!

[cg120190]

the heatmiser version is called not half right but the new moon song is called half right

[mooninites755]

oh ok im not much into heatmiser

[mooninites755]

the song is called half right (its not called not half right) just to let ya know

[tapdanczer03080]

nice raspy voice

[relmz441]

[janesheisaclerk]

I love Elliott Smith. Your voice is wonderful and your guitar playing is beautiful. I love this; it's great.

[mariekevdp]

Well done, you have a really nice voice, keep it up :)

[jsmcdona]

This is awesome!

[themango90]

Very good.  Wow. This song always gives me chills, and your cover was no different.

[ediblecereal]

this is a good cover. :]

[quicksand84]

I thought this song was just an elliott song that never got released till New Moon. What heatmiser cd is it on?

[ediblecereal]

It's on Mic City Sons.

and the song is actually "half right" without the "not" in the beginning.

[Ricoysuave]

man.. te discution is very stupid, is simply, elliot smith wright the song and play whit his band "heatmiser", but the fact is the "he wright the song", that's meens it's belong to elliot smith, so... is a song of heatmiser, but also, and is more important, is from Elliot smith... is come out of his head..

hey young man, you cover is beatiful!!!, you play and sing very very well, i wish a could sing like that...

[underoathbmx]

It's great man...(y)

[plexusnexus]

this sucks major

leave off the elliott

[xkhangod108]

havent heard the song but it sounds like a song that Heatmiser(Elliott Smith) Would Do, Wait I Know The Song

[PregnantCrippled]

dude if Elliott could see this... goddamn that was beutiful lol

[ChristmasChicken]

And that is why it is called a "cover"...you music nazis ...don't worry kid it was great ;)

[churchboose]

lord knows why you're using a pick, this is elliott smith for chrissakes.

[cuci]

well, u r the pro...maybe u can just play it yourself the way u want it...

[churchboose]

No, I'm just trying to set the record straight. The cover is good, there's no doubt about it... It's just not how Elliott/Heatmiser exactly played it, the guy was confused.

[spigty]

nice singing man, keep it up!

[citiesonflame]

this is not a heatmiser cover you just covered jimmy eat world covering heatmiser.

[tiredsleep]

your on acid elliot wrote this version not jimmy eat world

[churchboose]

yes, elliott and heatmiser wrote this song... but this guy is playing it how jimmy eat world covers it, by strumming- not picking the chords.

[tiredsleep]

no elliot smith recorded this verson on outtakes while he was with killrock stars, and this version is one the newmoon album which was recorded in mid 90's

[churchboose]

im saying that this version is the guy STRUMMING THE CHORDS. jesus. elliott smith WROTE this song while he was in heatmiser, and it was released on "Mic City Sons" as a bonus song. Yes, Elliott did go on to record a version of this song played in standard D tuning, which was featured on "New Moon." The version with the lead strumming the chords is how "Jimmy Eat World" covers the version by Heatmiser... You follow?

[tiredsleep]

man the version recorded in the mid 90s by elliot smith is picking the cords the exact way this dude is playing it and the exact way jimmy coverd it

[churchboose]

you're only listening to the intro- later on in the song this guy starts strumming the chords. throughout the elliott smith AND heatmiser versions of the song the chords are fingerpicked. go ahead and listen to it if you don't believe me!

[theaddingmachine]

i'm usually disappointed by elliott covers, but this was really pleasant to listen to. good job!

[Nevastroyka]

cool man. nice voice for this kind of songs bro

[ilykapple]

nice cover,I've been looking for the tabs where could I find them?

[javsav]

word.

[lucydog44]

nice job dude--you're feeling the elliott vibe

[crashincyberspace]

Well cool!!

[ILoveToEatCarbs3]

You sang this so well... and you made someone cry. Good job. haha :]

[timo1023]

very nice job man, don't listen to the immature people here. any chance you could post the chords?

[EsMiser]

Is this standard tuning???

[brokenimages]

simon cowell said " it was boring and uninspired "
