Alex... what is absolutely fantastic about this one is how you truly made it your own.. YOU took a VERY popular song, and changed it up quite a bit to the point where the listener actually takes in the beauty of the lyrics as a love song >> a mellow and tender love song. It's very easy with the radio version to get caught up in the whole "fun-up beat" feel of this one.. YOU truly have made it something very unique and wonderful! Thank you. ♥ Emily
there are those who are really good. there are those who are in the category as yourself, above the rest, that just stand out and really make you realize what talent is.
Geez, Alex. Talented just isn't the right word to describe you. I'd say, like... an angel-voiced genius or something. You sing better than over a half of all the world-famous artists, and you have a GREAT taste in music! You have covers from like all my favourite bands, there's the Script, Coldplay, Train, OneRepublic... You're gonna be a star.
I love all of your covers, Alex. You have so much talent and you are an astounding musician. This is so much better that the original "Hey, Soul Sister". Keep up your hard work, I look up to you!
Why are not clicking this? 1. It was a hit when this one came out 2. he is a great singer 3. the video is not as bad as others with more clicks 4. good guitar player 5. a.s.o. whatever i just dont get it. Alex you deserve more.... keep on doing this :-)
714ce you can see the wood on the back is rosewood. As far as the "thin" sound goes that's all in the production and solely falls on Mr. Cornell's taste for tone....beautiful cover brother.
I love the way this was filmed. This made me really happy. Just one small critique: I'd love it if you added a little more bass to your guitar. Atm it comes off as a bit thin. Remember though, that that is the only real critique I have to give. So thank you for a wonderful performance that will probably have me smiling for the rest of today!
Wow Alex. I've watched nearly all of your videos, but this made me want to stop and say something. I know a lot of people say it, but I'm a VERY harsh ear for music. Yet I don't know what to say. I won't tell you that you're SO MUCH more talented than most of the musicians out today, because record companies don't turn out labels for hacks, no matter the talent. I won't say that you're NOT more talented either. I WILL say that I'd rather hear YOU than most of them, though. Great job, bud.
Yeah, just cause one singer does the soft voice and acoustic guitar, means no one else can? This guy right here is fucking epic. That's all I have to say
Marry me? Justkidding... or am I?? *laughs* You'll never know!! But truly, your music and voice is lovely. Stay true to that my friend and then you'll be golden no matter how big or small your audience is.
It’s 2020 now.... wow. This is still great

Finally a artist that cares about music and do not cover all the top list crap music out there just to get views. Subscribed...
What else than a Taylor you could play - best contemporary guitars for good reason

the picture is amazing :)
i love this version, its awesome, your biggest fan :D
@cianbrennan25 haha yep, irish! thanks for the info ^_^
@francesyoung92 It's because he's capo-ing on the third fret.

The video is amazing ! Love it
omgomgomg, when i saw you covered this on your facebook, i just about died :D

Dude! wtf..you should become a youtube partner so they could advertise you! cuz honestly, you're the best musician on youtube in my opinion!!
love it!
nice
im really getting addicted to this song
@johnkimx83 im thinking the 514 ce, one of my friends has the 714 ce and the finish is different
Thanks! That was great!
I love the way this was filmed. This made me really happy. Just one small critique: I'd love it if you added a little more bass to your guitar. Atm it comes off as a bit thin. Remember though, that that is the only real critique I have to give. So thank you for a wonderful performance that will probably have me smiling for the rest of today!
@tirm Agreed, Mayer was the first one to adapt the soft hushed voice and acoustic guitar... :\
jeez this is amazing =)
Awesome :D
OH DAMN!
Wow Alex. I've watched nearly all of your videos, but this made me want to stop and say something. I know a lot of people say it, but I'm a VERY harsh ear for music. Yet I don't know what to say.

wow.
duudee that's amazing ö
future pop star!
why this video is not popular ?

♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️👍🤩

I - Subscribed !!
I definitely love you -3
and hello to you too :D
Yeah, just cause one singer does the soft voice and acoustic guitar, means no one else can? This guy right here is fucking epic. That's all I have to say
do you know what sort of camera was used for this?
woo
Every cover you do is like 100 times better than the original. If you released them at the same time as the original you'd win. :)
Marry me? Justkidding... or am I?? *laughs* You'll never know!!
But truly, your music and voice is lovely. Stay true to that my friend and then you'll be golden no matter how big or small your audience is.
just1for2fun3 yeet
Wow :)
What the heck is the tuning??? I can't figure it out at alll
John J standard
1st.. good song and good band
You're fucking amazing.
Did mike film this? Muahaha
this video should get more views, really....
Anyone know the chords and tuning?
What kind of editing program is used, Alex?
what are the chords? xd
I'm with the others here... I can't figure out why you aren't getting more views.
When it comes to vocal talent and feeling you could be the son of Chris Cornell :)
Absolutely brilliant, however, the guitar is far too high-endy for me
åh lovely! 0:32 ;)
This guy should make a cover of Tattoo by Jordin Sparks!
such a turn on :)
@MikeConleysVids Twangy sound, slim cut-away body...i'm gonna say a 714ce.
its the hair. o.o
@Jemrose13
........lol
...
Sa-weet! Better than the original!
