  • Thumps up! if you think this is the greatest cover for this song !! after hours of trolling on Youtube., I think this dude has done a really really perfect cover of this song. I like the original song but I think I like this cover more now. haha :)

  • best band ever, awesome cover!!

  • Hey people :D I covered this song and it would mean a lot to me if you saw it. It's not as good as Phil's but he inspired me to play this song. One of my favorite songs ever ^.^

  • What kind of mic did he use? :D

  • Seriously i could die right now and I would be okay with that.

  • I became emo just watching this.

  • cool

  • Seen several covers on this with singing and while playing guitar and Kendall Schmidst has been the best one yet, but this one is right there with it, great job. Not many ppl that upload on here can sing let alone sing and play.

  • wow, he doesn't only sing good but plays the guitar good also, perfect combo

  • very good cover. 

  • really amazing.....

  • Dude!!! holy shit tottally unexpected..u got a great voice man wow keep it up...

  • Dude your sick! so awesome. Check out my vids sometime id love to hear your feedback too.

  • DO MORE DASHBOARD SONGS!

  • When he changes chords, it sounds like he does something with the chord he's on before he changes, like he takes off a note or something. Could someone explain that to me?

  • @dobbywarnshryptr palm muting?

  • @dobbywarnshryptr palm muting?.

  • Can someone please explain to me how the strumming works? How does he make it silent on the downward strums and only play the top three strings on the upward strums?

    THNX! :)

  • @dobbywarnshryptr its kind of like palm muting, only you do it on the neck instead of where you strum. with your free finger or fingers, touch the strings so that they dont vibrate when you strum.. if you can understand what how im trying to explain it should be simple..

  • plz do a cover have faith in me by a day to remember plllllzzzzzzzzz =]

  • Please DON'T go on American Idol. I just might die if you do.

    You're too good for that show.

  • Arw. 'ure voice is very nice ¦D

  • You keep amazing me with your talent every video I see! Great song choices!

  • better than dashboard IMO. Realllllllyyyy good sound quality too.

  • is this in standard tuning e or is a dropped half step

  • i would give my left nut to sing like you

  • You are amazing.

  • You have my guitar :) Very nice job on this man sounds awesome.

  • Whoa. You seriously are professional quality. The sound of your voice is great,- smooth and not too high or too deep, or nasally. And you don't have an annoying way of singing. And though I have seen only a few of your vids, you seem to know your own voice well enough, such as it's, limits and how to control it. You also play guitar well, and can sing and play at the same time well. (Some people can do both well, but not at the same time.) Congrats on a fantastic job!

  • This was just wonderful I teared because u sound like an amazing angel at one of my favorite songs personally from my favorite band...u sound better in vocals than Chris and if u write as amazing as he does altogether I'd be ur #1 fan hahaha

  • you ripped that shit :D

  • You're amazing :) You should really be a singer. Me and the hundreds of people in the comments bare think you're just flat out amazing. I wish i could sing like that.
