[jimfusco]

@rogan71 Thanks- glad I could pleasantly surprise you. :-)

[RevolverGuitarist]

I think this is the best cover I've ever seen. Geez, if a boy sang this to me as lovely as you did, I would fall in love...

[jimfusco]

@RevolverGuitarist You're a diamond in the rough, then- I didn't get much attention being a Beach Boys fan growing up...

[mizzblake23]

[keltbrat]

[jimfusco]

@keltbrat Thank you very much! I'm glad you liked it more and more as the video went on. :-) I hope you'll keep watching and thanks again for the comment.

เทพมาก

[UKingdom]

can you share the tabs?

[UKingdom]

these are hard notes to hit; great job.

[jimfusco]

@UKingdom Thanks a lot- I've been singing this song for quite a while and glad I could do it justice.

[elgordolmdr]

good



[jimfusco]

@elgordolmdr Thanks!

[LexWillful]

You're really good man, an inspiration :) I was singing a long and bobbing my head... how embarrassing of me, but pure glee ! You have some kind of magic !

[jimfusco]

@LexWillful Thanks so much- this is such a great comment! I love this song and this band, so I'm so glad I could do it justice. I hope you'll keep watching!

[LexWillful]

@jimfusco keep it up because no matter what good thing you do, there is somebody out there that will appreciate it ! haha

alturism ftw.

[nysports89]

@LexWillful

It's altruism*

Correct spelling ftw.

Not quite sure you grasp the concept either, with your explanation of it. And I certainly don't think posting a cover of a song on youtube would be considered altruistic.

[LexWillful]

@nysports89

Whoops! Sorry, elgordolmdr ! Was directed to nysports89: Because I feel this joyous energy, the music, provides for the well being of others when they need something to listen to to cheer them up; it's therapeutic. It's better than nothing, and it's certainly better than something negative; it's something everyone can enjoy :)

[nysports89]

@LexWillful

Fair enough, wasn't trying to sound harsh with my comment , just feel that altruism is a bit deeper than that. I do see your point though, this is definitely a very nice, therapeutic song and a well done cover. Definitely better than something negative, there's far too much negativity in the world. Glad there are people out there who can have such a positive outlook on things.

[LexWillful]

@nysports89 Understandable. I don't mean to bastardize precious words like "altruism" or "love". I know it's a lot deeper, but at the same time - this act is, in itself, a small dosage of that - even if it's not that deep or significant; the lighter things in life.

And yea, I agree, definitely better than something negative :) Too much worthless hung-up negativity.

[1865Sophie]

sooooooo good!

[jimfusco]

@1865Sophie Thanks!

[HeyyImKyle]

nice job bro

[jimfusco]

@HeyyImKyle Thanks a lot!

[bullhatesu]

This put the biggest smile on my face :D

[jimfusco]

@bullhatesu And your comment put a big smile on my face, too!

[Golatakloks]

Excellent cover.

[jimfusco]

@Golatakloks Thanks so much! Hope you'll check out the rest.

[shunpin111]

very good!

[jimfusco]

@shunpin111 Thanks!

[arctickit1]

nice man what are the chords tho?

[only4tsc]

@arctickit1 I know this great website, it's called Google. seriously, why do people ask for chords in the comments section? just enjoy the video, find the chords yourself… this is the INTERNET.

but very nice cover, jimfusco, at some parts you sounded like Brian. :O I'm gonna watch again.

[jimfusco]

@only4tsc I LOVE this comment! I'm sorry to everyone, but I just don't have the time to post all of the chords. And yes, a simple Google search will solve 99% of the questions I get about chords. And, by the way, I'm glad you liked the video. :-)

[EugeneCastillo51]

Very nice :D the singing kinda startled me because I had it up pretty loud xD but it wasn't bad at all

[jimfusco]

@EugeneCastillo51 :-) Yeah, it really starts right in there. But, I'm glad you stuck with it!

[pxndx95cas]

awesome man!!! congratulations!!!

[jimfusco]

@pxndx95cas Thanks! I hope you'll watch my other Beach Boys videos, too!

[ACastleberryOU]

[jonathansoens0]

Loved it! That song always cheers me up when I'm down. I wish I could sing like that.

5 stars!

Search 'the sunny boys' , an they've got awesome covers ;)

[jimfusco]

@jonathansoens0 Thanks for the great comment- I'll check them out.

[shauning7]

this is pretty much the best beach boys cover ive seen, of this song anyway. Wasnt perfect but thats just a testimony to how unreal Brian Wilson's vocals and songwriting are. But nonetheless, 5star man. Kudos.

[jimfusco]

@shauning7 Hey, I'll take it! Thanks for the comment and glad you enjoyed the video.

[jimfusco]

@siccode That's a great comment! Thank you very much- I'm glad to be a decent "one man band". :-)

[SUPENSAAandRYROshow]

[STIZHEAD]

great cover!

[shantoti]

NICW NICE NICE!!!

[cacworth]

that dud has the best sound and if he can play that some song on a electric guitar he get a better sound.Keep up the good work mate.

[Sbroncs152009]

that was really good. 10/10

[lukecarb]

Well done!

[ju76jhjy87]

this is a baeutiful song and you did a wonderful job singing it.

[HuskeyNinja]

Awesome dude!

[dallakjan]

grat voice...you should do more beach boys cover....what about "Tears In The Morning" ???

[ChizFilms]

I really enjoed that. You've got a great voice. I spent all morning practicing the intro: that's difficult. For that I use a pattern of A F#m Bm E A F# C (God that C-chord sounds clever). Seriously I would LOVE to post myself playing the song but I just don't have the pitch or range for the Beach Boys.

[ealiagac]

@ChizFilms You can transpose the song to another key, so that it matches your vocal range.

[redneckwoman0809]

wow! good voice and good on guitar! two thumbs up! :)

[blakegallery]

good job sounds great

[rocktheetube]

here this was great lol

[CerealKiIIer]

Nice one mate!

[rockkito1]

really nice dude, congrats

[DARKHOURNIGHT]

damn you sound like the song your like an ipod human

how much $ ??? j/k lol!great job 10+

[jimfusco]

@DARKHOURNIGHT LOL- that was hilarious! Thank you for the comment. Cover songs are always free. :-)

[hipster09]

i think it's my favorite beach boys song---it's hard to choose, but this one is so niiiiiice

[MethuCysgu]

awesome :D really good vocal

[stumptacular]

this song has one of the most amazing bridges ever... brian wilsons 4th grade teacher recognized that he had perfect pitch... his songs are so magical and vocally challenging that i have a tough time stretching the old pipes reaching for the high notes.... makes the beach boys songs more challenging than one might think... just wondering jim, HOW MANY GUITARS DO YOU HAVE ANYWAY????

[jimfusco]

@stumptacular Sorry it took so long to reply! Thanks for the great comment.  And, to answer your question, I've got...well, a LOT of guitars. :-) Check out my new videos and you'll see them all in the background!

[amaiacm]

Good cover.

[kuakiriwow23]
