[ad1juster]

beautiful

[erniesilk18]

at about 1:11, its "coin that won't get tossed." not lost. very minor, doesn't matter. but just sayin.

[cutherland]

nicely done mate, looking forward to your other videos

[acustick1]

Love this cover. The drop D gives it a new dimension. Good work man.

[rustedstevie]

Great cover but why the terrrrible camera framing?

[erniesilk18]

@rustedstevie didn't want people to see his face in case it sucked. but it didn't, so now he's just not getting lad as much as he could be

[guitarman0154]

Anybody know what tuning he is using..Drop D maybe ..N

[msixny]

mabee that is his rendishion...cus its semi near,orig..some people have to understand that playing the song to perfect spces.. makes some people amazed while,also makeing u a robot....i have to say the low note he threw in was perty cool tho..

[papowiesse]

i don't know wtfk u guys talking about, he just can't sing, period!!!!...smoked tooooooooo much crack in his younger days!!!!

[WBluelip]

Incredible voice!

[youngsters01]

[hcr321984]

Very very nicely done. 5/5

[TCAHSW]

[54spiritedwill54]

Great cover sir. Love this song

[sweetieagogo]

mate this is class stuff! you've put your own stamp on it mate i prefer your version,honestly.i play it the same way but i detune the first sring aswell. i would love to jamm with you lol

[buniluvr]

Just me again - honestly I could be here all day! This is the BEST cover of Neil I've heard. Are you de-tuned? Tons of stars to YOU!

cheers

[ad1juster]

What's zzzzzzzzup zzzzzzzzap ? Good music and good originals. 5 stars.

[vydnes]

Like it. nice.

[loewen74]

i did the same thing. i first listened to one of his original songs wrote you sound somewhat like neil young then i found this lol. sounds great

[musikinmyheart]

Kris,

I just found this Cover. The interesting thing is that I thought you sounded very much like a young Neil Young on your original song Certainty In Freedom as I listened to it. Your own music is extremely good.

[panterra8905]

I thought you sounded exactly like him in your featured video, so I looked at your covers and was delighted to see this :D

[guillecrawley]

HATS!

[jubjubby20]

for the courus u mite need a higher foice overall that was exerlant

[JennoWA]

wow.. .your voice and guitar skills have done this classic justice... well done mate... i could listen to you all day.. fantastic...

[JennoWA]

wow.. .your voice and guitar skills have done this classic justice... well done mate... i could listen to you all day.. fantastic...

[delerious1234]

i usually don't like someone doing variations on a classic, but man that was really really cool. superb voice and the guitar's got a great tone also.

[BloodySabbathman]

Hmmmm Could you do some bob dylan? like Tambourine Man.

[gtarz38]

cool cover!

[MakeViolntRevolution]

man u've got a great voice! I like the way you improved the melody on the verses. I bet you could go up for the chorus if you falsetto. Try it.

[danicro12]

Z. This has always been one of my favs and you've played it just great. I love the arrangement and your guitar playing and singing are excellent. This one's a keeper.

[JFGodeaux]

Nice job. I'm new at the guitar and use youtube to help learn. Would like to see your left hand while playing. I gave you four stars.

[joeosu]

its almost like you put a radiohead spin on it, I don't really listen to them that much but its like a little more depressing than neil young sings. he's a lot louder with deeper emotion, don't misunderstand me though, this is very good. I still 5 star it! peace!

[kb1056]

ZZZZ - 5*, nuff said. now go play for someone. pc

[jzeder]

Neil Young is THE greatest singer/songwriter ever IMHO. And this is one of my favourite songs. And justice you did to it, young Skywalker... The more I listen to you, the more I want to sign you. (The only problem being that I don't my own record label...yet.)

[xheartshapebox]

I like this alot!

[alsnape]

This is my favorite song, you definitely do it justice!! Great job!

[licksnsticks]

Dude

I been playing for 40 years and take my word for it. Take this show on the road. I listened to a few of your originals and you should share ths part of you with others. ITs a gift. Don't hoarde it!!!!!

[lindamac]

5*** if you want to do again feel free ,however this is cool

[molecricket2007]

[phatstrat1]

[Osmun79]

Nice.. did you keep it in standard tuning?

[zzzzzzzzap]

Thanks, Osmun79. Yeah, standard tuning with drop D. Peace

[dgam72]

Great cover sir. Love this song, cant believe you've been waiting so long to do an open mic, tell me you've played in front of people since this!

[zzzzzzzzap]

Cheers, dgam72. No still not braved it onto stage yet.. I plan to soon though. :) Peace

[zzzzzzzzap]

My unending apologies for taking so long to reply. Because this is the first video I posted and so therefore buried under all the others I hardly ever check it. Glad you enjoyed and thanks for the words of support. Peace

[blackdressredheels]

awesome!

[zzzzzzzzap]

Thanks a lot :D

[projectnick26]

this is one of my favorite songs simply because of the chord progressions... you master them. great video, and please do this at an open mic!

[zzzzzzzzap]

It certainly is a classic. Thanks for the positives. Peace

[gregbell14]

One of my favorite songs ever, and you gave it the emotion its words demand. Well done.

[zzzzzzzzap]

Yeah, it's a great song. I was really nervous posting this I remember but I'm glad I did. Peace

Love this!!! You did it more than justice!

Pat :o)

That's a really nice thing to say. Thanks Patman.. This seems like years ago I posted this. Peace..

[frusciante4ever]

marry me!..that was absolutely beautiful..

[zzzzzzzzap]

Haha, thanks :D

[gbdre]

Pretty good!

[artgirlsreality]

Neil is the man. Good choice on this tune. He has so many deep songs. Now we are talkin! You got it down. I really like your voice if I didn't tell you already.

[zzzzzzzzap]

:D Thanks. Was a little worried covering this tune but I found it was one, in my practice time, I always messed around with. Can't beat the old favourites. Hope you enjoy the new vid. Peace

[artgirlsreality]

YES I AM!

[bo0miez]

props, sir.

[zzzzzzzzap]

Thanks muchly :D

[AislynMarie]

you're amazing.

[zzzzzzzzap]

Thanks :D .. . I don't know what else to say . . :D (I'm not really that amazing, honest!)

[lightnintrucker]

Awesome rendition!! In some part sounds like some dramatic guitar thing in a western movie.

[zzzzzzzzap]

Cool, thanks (I can see what you're saying about the movie bit!) Thanks for taking the time to comment. Peace

[Waggonerslad]

Great rendition of a great song. Love the guitar work and your singing isn't half bad either.

[zzzzzzzzap]

Thanks matey. Appreciated! :)

[farrows]

really great bro! i love how you made the song your own...i really dig your breathy vocal style...are you famous in your country?..if not i think you could be

[zzzzzzzzap]

Haha, famous?? My missus might say I'm famously lazy but that's about it. Thanks for the comments though, means an awful lot. I'm having fun checking your channel out! :)

[strat2caster]

another killer performance. now how can i do Neil after hearing this ? *****

[zzzzzzzzap]

Thanks dude. I've spent today sorting a few things on my channel and, in truth, was going to ditch this. I think I'll leave it up now. Thanks for the subscription; I'm one step closer to doing that open mic! :P

[strat2caster]

cool bro, you should do it !

[MuNkYBizNess]

Braw job on this, nice guitar work. I would say that if you desire to play to an audience then you should just go for it. You have the ability so maybe all the courage you need is to take that first step. It can only get easier from there. Good luck!

[zzzzzzzzap]

Thanks for the kind words. It's been close to two months since I posted this and still no open mic ... Just need to get the nerves in check. Thanks for stopping by

[TsanGwanWai]

Your right Patch.. YOU SUCK! hahaha. Anyways... Well Done Mr.Rowley. You Done gurd (Y)

[PiaChio]

man you shouldn`t have had any worries this is awesome! great sound on the guitar by the way Kris told me about this video :D keep on playing man! ( check out my videos even though i suck...bad)

[PiaChio]

yeah, now i look like an idiot cos it is kris haha! awesome dude

[ironangel88]

The sound coming from that guitar is amazing! Your voice in the song is pretty good too. But I really like the guitar work here. nicely done :D

[zzzzzzzzap]

Thanks for the feedback. I really didn't want to try and imitate Neil Young (how could I?) so I thought I'd try something a bit different with the arrangement. Thanks for viewing!

[ironangel88]

np. like i said very nicely done! :D
