  • loved your rendition mate ,one question if you dont mind ? when the song says "it doesnt matter that I have no sex life ,all I wanna do now is inject my ? ( XY/exwife)

    Ive seen it written as ex wife but Ive always thought it makes more sense as XY as he was never married whereas the XY relates to the male chromosone, sorry for bein a bit of a trainspotter here but you seem to sing XY .I just wondered your thoughts on it ? brilliant upload thank ,you got a new subscriber .

  • @hebdomad3710 Yeah, i too, have always seen it written as ex wife, But when ever I listen to elliott sing it, it always sounds like XY? which, just makes so much more sense to me. . . . Thank you for the kind words. . .

  • such a cool song. good job. what kind of guitar is that?

  • Ty, its an ibanez PC300 acoustic/electric.

  • this song here is one of the most allegorically loaded songs i've ever heard; i think King's Crossing is his opus. The imagery of this song swirls around in my brain and I feel I catch a glimpse, an echo, sometimes. Nice job man, I wouldn't dare try to post a cover of such a haunting reverent song. Serious balls! On a minor note, You and I have similar head shapes and I still have yet to go clean shaven with the full beard. You have serious serious juevos. I think Elliott would approve. I do

  • oh yeah man, best one out of the other 5,000

  • @hebdomad3710 "Injecting one's ex-wife" is a term used by recovering junkies referring to using heroin,

  • @hebdomad3710 he says ex-wife, referring to heroin.

  • @hebdomad3710 you guys are serious dums, x wife is heroin, he wants to INJECT HEROIN. + needles on the tree, skinny santa (dealer) bringing something (drugs) to me (him)

  • Just noticed you added "because I love you" after "give me one good reason not to do it". Reminds me of the live version he sang in 2003' when the girl screams that after he says "give me one good reason not to do it"

  • Good cover bro. I can tell you really enjoy covering this song.

  • Great song, great cover. Nice job :)

  • Everyone sings so loud. How did Elliott stay so calm?..

  • This song is so intensely personal that the pain and desperation are almost impossible to capture

  • @GoneAsGoneCanBe nice on , cheers :)
