@benjamonster95 i disagree. not true. he died 1973.croce is truly a one of a kind genius musician but there are other greats after him namely seals and crofts,englan dan,america, poco, too many that are great musicians
Actually, do not worry that much about pronunciation, if you listen to americans speaking other languages you will see what is bad procunciation haha xD
You're 90% of the way there. The pauses while you struggle for a certain chord fingering completely interrupt the song flow. Keep practicing that transition until you nail it. Finally, cut back the reverb on the vocal. A touch for flavor would be fine; it's too much as it stands.
I like the accent and you play beautifully and you are supposed to drag your fingers that's how the original sounds ,too,so don't listen to those say you aren't supposed to.
Would you mind showing your face please...so that I can hunt you down and rip your lungs out!!!! wahahahahahaha...the best cover for the worse viewers...amf!!!
This is the suckiest and most ridiculous rendition of Jim's song!!! This guy must have done this under the influence of something. "Save time in a BATTLE' ...omg you literally murdered a masterpiece you asshole!!! You should've practiced for say 20 more years before you posted this on youtube!!!
My dads ex that he hates and i miss says this song reminds her of me..now every time i hear it i cry cuz my dad will kill me if i say i still love her and that i miss her </3
I don't have any plans to make a recording of this song but if I did I would never mislead youtubers into my video. I would bet 9 out of 10 people say the same thing when they click this vid......damn, I wanted to see Croce not some amateur.

That is one of the most ridiculously overated and overplayed songs around. It's an ok song, but alas, they killed it by overplaying it and making it too commercial. I don't know why you even brought that song up on this video. That song sucks compared to this :p
clap 3 times...s pin around and say the name of the person you want to be with forever...post this on 7 pages and this saturday that person will suddely relize how much you mean to them... you dont do this... that person will think the oppiste and never want to see you again...
hmm... not jim croce singing... still your pretty close, if you would just stop having a lisp in "dat here" song. Try again please. "da first thing" it is "the first thing"... still you have the voice...

Couldn't find my original post, but I'm guessing my comment was about not being able to see what he's doing. All you see are knuckles.

You should put "cover" in the title. Also you are dragging your hands across the frets on your chord changes.
