Bixby Canyon Bridge (Acoustic Cover)

I skipped part of the song 'cause it doesn't translate well to an acoustic rendition. Also, I was losing control of my voice thanks to our good friend Uncle Laryngitis. FUN TIMES!

I think if you don't try to mimic the song too closely, you won't annoy the folks who really like the original. So for this one, I tried not to sound like Gibbard. I guess it worked? Haha. Thanks for commenting! :)

Wow

Your awesome man, great song and great cover!

[joeneedstosleep]

Thanks, amigo! :D

[DieBtv]

holy shit its the first one of these covers i dont hate...

wierd. nice

[joeneedstosleep]

Yeah, I think it's better if you do something different with the song and don't just try to sound like the original, you know? Make it your own. It'll sound better when it sounds like you. Thank you for commenting :D

I dig it. You have a cool voice; Strange to say maybe, but its like, soothing? Who cares if you can't sing on a high octave - you're awesome. Death Cab rocks. :]

[smilingalways]

so clearly you hear this kind of thing all the time - but postal service and death cab are magic bands and ben gibbard is an absolute genius and the fact that you can do covers of their songs and make them sound so unique and amazing is definately a talent :]

well done and keep up the awesome covers..perhaps you have some originals that you should share with the world??

..you know you want to :]

LOVE your voice. It is fantastic! I want you to sing me songs every day.

[dudeitsHAZE]

can you tell me what chords you're using?

[tiffanynem]

This was lovely. :-)

[taconip]

A bit country for my tastes but pretty nice all the same

[falkbengt]

sounds like adam green

[fansbobby]

I love your voice. It's amazing

[JTmwah]

sounds great! i knew someone who did a cover where they fingerpicked that part you modified. idk if thats how it goes in the original, i haven't listened to it in a while.
