  • Way too pop-inflected on the vocals and manner. Stop listening to the radio if you're trying to get into a moody subdued piece like this.

  • Well...i don't listen to the radio :-) but thanks anyway.

  • Betcha didn't think this'd be so controversial...your lowest rated youtube I think. But hey, if your lowest is still 4 stars, not too shabby! In my book, one of my faves of all you've uploaded no lie. Fived/Faved.

  • :-)

    Thanks Sam.

    You are a champ. xoxo

  • tune your guitar!

  • I've read a number of somewhat negative comments and I wanted to say while I think this is significantly different from Elliott's original, I think this interpretation is really awesome. You really made it more of an original cover, if that's an understandable term. I adore the original but this was a great cover of the way you personally envisioned the song. Great job.

see all

  • LOL elliott must be spinning in his grave

  • Why is it that the people with the least talent judge the harshest? I wish I could do this, you're an inspiration.

  • I think its stupid to cover such a loved song of smith's. cos people are loyal to elliott and love him forever. even so, this is a cool cover cos you did something of your own to it. I dont mind this cover at all!!!! (still like it as a just cover, though)

  • I think it sounds alright actually.

  • Everyone does this flat, It's nice to see someone do it a bit differently. If it wasn't for people doing covers with a different style, we'd never have Manfred Mann's 'Blinded By the Light' or Iron and Wine's 'Such Great Heights'.

    Good cover Louisa - could do without the buzz on the recording though. ;-)

  • holy fuck this is TERRIBLE.

  • Louisa, Thank you. Very nice.

  • who cares if the guitar just a tiny bit off tune?

  • love it

  • Awesome cover
