    I just came here after watching an interview with Justin Hawkins, He said this is a fantastic cover version and i have to agree. Just brilliant. Thanks for sharing

    Just popped over from Justin Hawkins video responding to covers of his song and your version was definitely my favourite by far. Thank you all.

    I honestly think this is one of the best covers/reinterpretations of any song ever, and I listen to it constantly. It's phenomenal.

      Beat me to it. Incredible cover. Morgan Wallen’s cover of Jason Is bell’s song called Cover You Up is the absolute number one greatest cover song of all time. Hands down.

    Brilliant, just brilliant. I love cover versions of ANY song, but to cover a Darkness song in this way, genius!!. I could easily hear this on a romcom soundtrack.

    This is my favourite song ever. I like a bit of country but nothing like rock n roll.
    But this... This is a nice different. Really nice to listen to and an interesting approach. Not my kind of music, but I respect it very much. Well done.

  • @3CrystalDiamond
    @3CrystalDiamond 11 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Now I'm a forever lover of the original and I believed that there is no possible band to make and cover in comparison to the amazing of the original however this cover is a variety of it's own and in fact amazing in it's own way. Awesome cover!!

  • @piratesting
    @piratesting 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    If you're playing on guitar, you can put a capo on the 2nd fret, and play G C Em and D shapes in different combinations until you get it right! Good luck, and thanks for watching!

  • @swish007
    @swish007 8 ปีที่แล้ว +104

    This is what a cover should be. I never understand people who watch song covers and get mad when they aren't exactly like the original. Just freakin watch the original! A cover like this doesn't take anything away from the original song. If you don't like the genre then fine.. But it doesn't mean it's bad. Some people have very little understanding of artistic expression. But hey I was the same way when I was 12. Maybe they'll grow up and broaden their horizons someday.

    • @naturagrace6898
      @naturagrace6898 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      This cover was adorable. Healthy people don't compare or expect perfection and genius. These humans are creating beauty in their own unique way. Yes, it breaks my heart how mean and cruel people can be with their criticisms rather than being able to respect and appreciate all artists and self expression in general. Sickening the meanness in this world. And in reality, most people who bash others express less talent than those whom they are attacking. Sadly we live in a world full of mentally ill haters. Bummer.

    • @awe1970
      @awe1970 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      My rules for cover songs do it better, do it differently, or be a better singer then the original

    • @JoejoeReference
      @JoejoeReference 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I understand what your saying and agree somewhat but I just cannot enjoy this cover. The original was filled with a energetic rock and this just saps out all of the strength and makes it sound like a generic hipster acoustic song. The highlight of the original song to me and probably many others was the powerful vocals and these two people can't hold a candle to it. The lyrics, rhythm, and melody were there but the spirit of the original song itself wasn't. A better cover in my opinion would be PostmodernJukebox's. Their singer was still able to deliver on the vocals with a soulful sound to her and gave the song a more classy feel. It was a different sound but I still felt what the original song tried to make me feel when I listened to it. Again, I agree that people shouldn't hate on this too much, but in my opinion it's not that great of a cover.

    • @garretts91
      @garretts91 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Funny how opinions work. Nobody is ever "right"...Just listened to the cover from "PostmodernJukebox" and found it unenjoyable. A cover is an interpretation of the original and there are endless ways to do it. No way is right. There are on the other hand bad covers by people who either cant sing or cant play well. This band has talent. Its not a "bad" cover, you just don't care for it.

    • @Folsomdsf2
      @Folsomdsf2 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Actually, this is EXACTLY how it was done as an acoustic version by the original singer.. they didn't have any artistic expression..

    Came here to listen after hearing Justin Hawkins in an interview praise this cover. At first, I was thinking this was the best cover by a "country" artist since The Gourds covered Gin n Juice. But then I decided this is much better. Subscribed.
