You know Auto Tune is a software based system. This man is clearly using a mixer and a mic there's absolutely zero auto tune here. It's just an incredible vocal. Stunning and beautiful. Maybe instead of negative comments you should post your rendition so we can hear it.
Over the last week I've returned to watch this another 10 or 15 times. There's just something very moving about this version. When you hit that middle eight section ("so sleep a lifetime...) the singing is just achingly beautiful & emotional. Thanks for recording this & thanks to James Blunt for writing something so raw and personal. I've lost both my parents, many years apart, and there is something very healing about this song that just can't be explained.
First time I hear this song. I had to stop the video and listen to James Blunt before I listen to you. Your rendition is absolutely amazing. God bless you. ♥️
This describes the night before my actual dad died almost exactly . Recently another man died, a man I looked up to like a dad. The guy that taught me how to be a caring man. This reminds me of our relationship 😢
Whoa brother... this is definetely a top notch cover. TOP OF THE TOP, TOP. Now give me an acoustic version with one unedited video shot. This was incredible.
This is beautiful. Really gorgeous. Love your voice. Love this version as much as the original. Oh ... my ... that bridge ... gosh. Bravo!!!!! I started out, sitting next to my husband thinking, "Handsome bald man with beard" (like hubby) "this has got to be good". lol. Blew us both away. 🧡
I can’t find a video of you doing it so I’m not sure if you have, but if not I think your voice would be absolutely great for a cover of “Im Already There” by Lonestar. By the way, you did an awesome job on this brother, you have a gift for sure!
I've listened to most cover versions of monsters by James Blunt on TH-cam and this version is by far the best, I can really feel the emotion.... Great job!!! Thank you 🙏🏻
Wow, you deserve more subs mate, keep up the good work, sir, when u feeling down remember there's someone feeling up by watching your video. This song is personal for me and you delivering it great, thank you. 👊
Oh, before they turn off all the lights I won't read you your wrongs or your rights The time has gone I'll tell you goodnight, close the door Tell you I love you once more The time has gone So here it is I'm not your son, you're not my father We're just two grown men saying goodbye No need to forgive, no need to forget I know your mistakes and you know mine And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud So, daddy, won't you just close your eyes? Don't be afraid, it's my turn To chase the monsters away Oh, well, I'll read a story to you Only difference is this one is true The time has gone I folded your clothes on the chair I hope you sleep well, don't be scared The time has gone So here it is I'm not your son, you're not my father We're just two grown men saying goodbye No need to forgive, no need to forget I know your mistakes and you know mine And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud So, daddy, won't you just close your eyes? Don't be afraid, it's my turn To chase the monsters away Sleep a lifetime Yes, and breathe a last word You can feel my hand on your own I will be the last one So I'll leave a light on Let there be no darkness, in your heart But I'm not your son, you're not my father We're just two grown men saying goodbye No need to forgive, no need to forget I know your mistakes and you know mine And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud So, daddy, won't you just close your eyes? Don't be afraid, it's my turn To chase the monsters away
This is the best cover I’ve heard of this song. Auto tune or not. Great job. Don’t mind the haters, just do what you do. Your version, in my opinion, is better than the original.
You see Steve i agree with this woman - ignore ignorant jealous people - you achieved something they didnt. You absolutely nailed the most emotional song BETTER THAN JAMES BLUNT. IN FACT HE WOULD BE PROUD OF YOU AND AGREE.
Beautiful brilliant cover song. You nailed it - i loved your pace it makes it so much more emotional. I relate to this song over my loss the my dad. OH MY WORD YOU DID IT BETTER THAN JAMES BLUNT❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
It makes a huge difference the pace of the song. It is a very emotional song so rushing tbrough it doesnt do it justice - i am.a huge fan of james blunt - but i have to hand it to you - you outperformed him. Well done❤
Yes, feel the meaning of the song lyrics... that's true... don't pay attention to your surroundings... You will feel Putri Ariani's singing technique... Your job as a singer is to convey the message through the meaning of the song lyrics you sing...
@@steveknillmusicI can see your direction in this song you made it less hopeful which suited the message the song and artist intention also the instrument resonate more without muddying it your choice for d minor is a good choice that elevate the song emotions to a higher level I also when I heard the original I felt something wrong with it after I transposed it to d minor I figured out it doesn't have much longing and fear and regret and your cover display it well Very well done
Steve man. I listen to you so much the last two years. Do you remember me ? Stage 4 brain Mets . Easily a year ago I comment about having two children. Man I'm still in the fight . Boss you brother. Fro Ireland fro me and my family . I'll keep fighting bro.
How about it works the other way around too for me ? I'm terminally ill with stage 4 brain Mets. I have two young girls ages 4 and 2. It brings healing and strength to me thinking about them taking their live s on without me and then having to go thru all this palative stuff 😢 . . . Lots of love brother . .
As one who recently fell in love with this song, I immediately checked out ALL the covers AND the original on YT, and brother, DAMN, your interpretation is THE BEST. WOW. I dare say I actually like your version better than James'. Well done!!!
It's funny Steve, if Michael Bolton sang his first songs today, everyone here would say, Nice dude, now do it without auto-tune and all the gear. It's like nobody has ever heard of Dimash, Frank Sinatra or Brian Phelps. I would love to have a single video shot of you doing this acapella or 1 guitar and no mic. For the fans, Steve, for the fans.
Lets hear it without the AUTOTUNE.
You already have.. dickhead
@@steveknillmusic Seriously... That @Alan Scott is a jerk and your response cracked me up. Great job on the song!
@@steveknillmusic hhaahhahahh mate I'm friggin dead. Ha ha nice one.

@Steve Knill hahaha. Respect for Steve. Its not auto-tune. But something in the editing maybe. You're like, perfect dude.
WOW!! Your cover is THE BEST of ALL!! You are so talented!! SO incredible! What an amazing voice you have.
Thanks Brian!

The best cover I’ve ever heard!!! Heck it’s better than the original
Amazing voice👏👏👏
Steve...the feeling was overwhelming in the way you sang that song. Absolutely perfect and awesome in every way! Thank you for sharing.

From the first words you sing, I've been touched and predict this cover will be beautiful
I can’t find a video of you doing it so I’m not sure if you have, but if not I think your voice would be absolutely great for a cover of “Im Already There” by Lonestar. By the way, you did an awesome job on this brother, you have a gift for sure!

Wow you're talented bro.
Oh, before they turn off all the lights
I won't read you your wrongs or your rights
The time has gone
I'll tell you goodnight, close the door
Tell you I love you once more
The time has gone
So here it is
I'm not your son, you're not my father
We're just two grown men saying goodbye
No need to forgive, no need to forget
I know your mistakes and you know mine
And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud
So, daddy, won't you just close your eyes?
Don't be afraid, it's my turn
To chase the monsters away
Oh, well, I'll read a story to you
Only difference is this one is true
The time has gone
I folded your clothes on the chair
I hope you sleep well, don't be scared
The time has gone
So here it is
I'm not your son, you're not my father
We're just two grown men saying goodbye
No need to forgive, no need to forget
I know your mistakes and you know mine
And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud
So, daddy, won't you just close your eyes?
Don't be afraid, it's my turn
To chase the monsters away
Sleep a lifetime
Yes, and breathe a last word
You can feel my hand on your own
I will be the last one
So I'll leave a light on
Let there be no darkness, in your heart
But I'm not your son, you're not my father
We're just two grown men saying goodbye
No need to forgive, no need to forget
I know your mistakes and you know mine
And while you're sleeping I'll try to make you proud
So, daddy, won't you just close your eyes?
Don't be afraid, it's my turn
To chase the monsters away
niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice
Oh my.
Wow.....u deserve more views
thank you! please share if you can!

Amazing!! So much better than the original!
This one has less hope than original which is suited for near death of a closed one
That is why it's better than original
AMAZING COVER ! Very good job man.

I comment about having two children. Man I'm still in the fight . Boss you brother. Fro Ireland fro me and my family . I'll keep fighting bro.
This song doesnt work if i dont believe the singer is addressing their dad,
This works
How about it works the other way around too for me ? I'm terminally ill with stage 4 brain Mets. I have two young girls ages 4 and 2. It brings healing and strength to me thinking about them taking their live s on without me and then having to go thru all this palative stuff 😢 . . . Lots of love brother . .
U should take Sherman up on that offer. This world needs to know you, Steve.
What offer?
Your version is good as the original
You did way better than the actual singer i play your version daily 😊
You made me think of a possible yodelling version, what do you think?
where r u from steve? what state do you reside in?
not sure why that's relevent
🤍
Brother, no te Conosco, pero lo que acabas de hacer justifica TU EXISTENCIA. No m………..
