Andrew Rose Gregory performs "Thirteen," by the late, great Alex Chilton and the supremely under-rated Chris Bell. The original song was performed by their band, "Big Star." Other way more famous covers were done by Elliott Smith & Wilco among others.

Andrew also finds out why everyone has been calling him a "cracker."

Lyrics:

Won't you let me walk you home from school
Won't you let me meet you at the pool
Maybe Friday I can
get tickets for the dance
and I'll take you

Won't you tell your dad, "Get off my back"
Tell him what we said 'bout 'Paint It Black'
Rock 'n Roll is here to stay
Come inside where it's okay
And I'll shake you.

Won't you tell me what you're thinking of
Would you be an outlaw for my love
If it's so, let me know
If it's "no", then, I can go
I can't make you.

  • andrew, i just want to let you know you blow my mind. do you want a brazilian spouse?

  • Andrew Rose, you are such an adorable cracker! and I love your originals.... and covers. You would probably do an amazing job on Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah though. But yes, more originals.

  • love Big Star so much, real nice cover ...RIP Alex Chilton :(

  • Wait, but..."Louv-ree?" Come on now.

  • I've seen plenty of covers of this song, but yours is one of the better ones -- up there with Elliott Smith's. Haunting without being over the top.

  • those 4 people who disliked this video are the ones that called you a cracker

  • Dear Andrew Rose Gregory To hell with what people say. Keep the originals coming. I, for one, love your work. It is so hard to these days to find music with a soul. It's apparent that you really put your heart into your music.

  • Andrew you have inspired me! i am now growing my beard and hair out

    p.s great music make more please and do more covers, and yes i will be subscribing

  • Evan and Andrew are the coolest of the Gregory Bro's.

    Ya rock!!
