Lyrics:
Did I drive you away?
I know what you'll say
You say, "Oh, sing one we know"
But I promise you this
I'll always look out for you
Yeah, that's what I'll do
I say, "Ohh"
I say, "Ohh"
My heart is yours
It's you that I hold on to
Yeah, that's what I do
And I know, I was wrong
But I won't let you down
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, I will, yes, I will
I said, "Ohh"
I cry, "Ohh"
Yeah, I saw sparks
Yeah, I saw sparks
And I saw sparks
Yeah, I saw sparks
Anyone knows what mic/setup is he using?
Whenever i try to record with my phone, my voice gets too muffled under the guitar, or perhaps i just sing that low.. how do i fix that.. I've been thinking of getting a separate mic for guitar covers
I put the link in the video description, it’s a mic from Tula:) It’s the red one in front of me, I sync it with my camera audio and delete my camera audio after so I just have the clear audio from the mic. I add a little compression and eq before doing that also but keep the vocals raw besides that
@@forestslaterthank you so much!! I was almost sure i had checked the description already, my bad.
So the mic is setup pointing towards you, so that it captures more of your voice than the guitar, right?
Again, thanks for the details, really appreciate it :)
My voice is barely audible in my recordings, this might help with that.
@@forestslateryour mic seems to record incredibly well...honestly I'm stunned, even the low notes.. I really need to get a mic like this.
@@sarthakvinchurkar No worries at all! I actually just added it a handful of days ago so it may have not been there. Yeah I point sound hole of the guitar away from the mic so it doesn't pick it up as much and have it slightly tilted upwards so it'll pick up more of my voice. I'm pretty sure I boosted the low end a little with some EQ and the compression helped bring it up a little also:) So its not all the mic but it captures good enough audio that I am able to do that and get stuff where I like it.
@@forestslater Was pleasently suprised to see somebody ask this question and for you to answer! I am am pulling the trigger and buying one for my guitar/vocal covers!
Edit: I just ordered the seafoam green mic and used your discount code
i admire how ur not afraid of being mugged bro
😂
I think even if someone saw him like that in the middle of the night, no one’s mugging him lol
They already took everything from him
That person would just sit and listen to him singing
What’s there to mug he’s Got nothing left to lose
casually witnessing all of this in the middle of the night was a unique experience, thanks
bro is the ghost in the background
Fuck id sit down next to him.
Some humans r actually alright eh
🤍
this song being covered in a park at 3 am just somehow makes it even better
It really does
It’s the crickets. What atmosphere !
🤍
I've made it a habit, staying up entire nights. Obviously, not fond of it. I'm more than guilty because of it. All I really do those nights is explore different corners of the internet. Music, reading, movies sometimes, etc. I've come to find that nights are the most peaceful. So, staying up as guilty as I am because of it has led me to new interesting things. One of such, was finding this cover. There's an eerie and slightly frightening energy radiating from this man's singing and guitar playing, which I really love. I would say it was a great decision recording this at 3 AM, risking getting robbed or I don't know, meeting wicked spirits floating around. This has been an absolute pleasure to listen to.
Real man
Us
I empathize with you. It's a guilty pleasure of a habit (in my case at least). Aside from that, yeah, I agree.
Mood, it’s almost 6am and I haven’t slept and college starts in a couple days. I might be screwed
Yeah 🌈
I see comments mentioning an eery feel to this cover, but I personally find this to be one of the most calmingly beautiful covers of Sparks that I have ever come across. It perfectly captures the somber yet gentle tone of the song, especially due to the way he sings it. In love with this. I'm so grateful for coming across this video :))
Agreed, there is so much beauty and peace in these hours ❤
🤍
This is why I want to learn guitar
Do it. You won’t regret it!
@@aaronrendon4640 adhd kills bro
@@Kangarooman-jv2be its possible bro, dont use adhd as an excuse(i have severe adhd so ik what you mean) but you wont regret it if you learn, trusttttttt
@@9_9_9editz thx brotha 🫡
@@Kangarooman-jv2bekeep the guitar next to your couch, or main sitting area. Your adhd will make you pick it up constantly.
Everyone complaining that it was maybe a wrong decision to record , this late at night but, I think this eerily almost frightening vibe this song has is purely due to the fact that this was recorded at night. He captured in this video everything he was feeling at that moment. This is just perfect.❤
I used to sneak out of the house at 3 am with my friend. We would go to the park, swing on the swings and talk about life. This reminds of those times… the calm of the night and just being in the moment taking in everything. This is beautiful
I listened to this at 3 AM one morning. It had around 3 k views. This was 3 - 4 days ago. At the time of writing this the video has 8.5 k views. Its been out for 7 days. This video is always on my recommended tab when i pull up TH-cam to smoke and listen to some music. I've been listening to this every day and it helps. I'm interested to see how many views it will have once I read this comment back in a bit of time.
Just heard this for the first time at 3:30 am.

Sing it out
I’m just imaging that I couldn’t sleep, so I went on a walk and found myself in the park listening to another insomniac stranger strumming his guitar and singing. I sit on the concrete and look up at the moon. There are trees swaying with the night breeze in the distance. All those thoughts keeping me up are suddenly so small. I’m at peace.
omg his voice is amazing what a precious man
🤍
this was beautiful. I wish I could walk around safely at 3 am. it would be so peaceful
That was beautiful. I love how random and spontaneous humans are.
This made me cry more times than I'd like to admit
🤍
sometimes when i cant sleep, i’ll come back to this video, to unlike and relike it. watching it feels like liking it all over again each time, bringing a new wave of peace to whatever war goes on in my mind. serenity can be in a park at 3am, by lamplight or moonlight , playing, or appreciating. this sum special
Beautiful guitar sound and playing
How is this only a 1k views video
THIS REQUIRES TO BE A HIT IT SOUNDS WAY TOO GOOD
What we can do is hit those likes and hope TH-cam algorithm does its thing!
🤍 Thank you, I think you’ve got to got to be the reason it did so well, maybe TH-cam saw your comment😂
idk why but this brings me some sort of comfort? like the whole atmosphere and 3am park thing. keep doing your thing bro.
hauntingly beautiful, especially the fact that i saw this at exactly 3 am. fills me with an emotion i dont want to lose. love it
this is honestly one of the more beautiful things i have heard lately, made my night
🤍
I originally found your shorts on insta and have loved most of your covers thanks for offering me something to listen to while its late and i am struggling silently
I hope to get around to more, I’m glad they help🤍 Much love, you definitely got this
Hands down one of best covers I've found of this song!
❤️Tysm
Alone in a parking lot underneath a pale lamp light with the soft songs of crickets cradling this different pitch of Sparks really drives an atmosphere of solitude. I’ve seen some folks say it’s eerie or creepy, personally I feel like I’m alone. The feeling of melancholy or searching through the vastness of one’s darker corners of the mind. While a love song sounding sweet and calming, it changes the tune with the first question: „Did I drive you away?“. The man is recalling the sparks that he had seen.. but she is gone. There was love but it she’s gone. Alone to cry: „Ohhhhh I saw sparks.“ Alone like a heartbroken drunkard with his guitar and a little microphone to record the cries of a heartbroken man. The setting really tied this together.
This made me cry. His vocals really made me feel the lyrics andnot just tbe beat i love your voice bro
I’ve waited for it so baaad.
It’s amazing , you have an incredible voice and talent
Thank you!! I’m glad you enjoyed the full thing
I met a stranger earlier. It's so weird, because even though she's a stranger I knew her favorite color, favorite movie, favorite food, and her favorite song. But still, she's a stranger. I hope you are doing fine, stranger.
🫠
Ill do this one day, youve inspired me🙏🏻
reminds me of her, and she means alot to me
i hope i dont lose her
randomly stumbled upon this in the middle of the night lmao
You have such a nice voice man, pretty much how I aspire to sound one day.
I would feel like the luckiest person ever stumbling upon this at 3am out for a lonely stroll
Damn youtubes really been recommending great creaters to me.
This is a really good good cover can see myself coming back to listen to it love acoustic instrumentals over studio mixes
I fell for your voice the moment you started singing 🥺
Miss the old Coldplay! Thanks for your beautiful cover ❤
It hits different
You should put this on Spotify, Great cover 🔥🫂
This is absolutely overwhelmingly beautiful in every sense. I needed this to calm me down. My mind has been buzzing and I have been in this abyss of overthinking and a lot more. This calmed me down like no other. I'm in tears. Keep doing what you're doing!!!! You're healing people you never broke.
Wow. I can’t even describe the feeling I got from this.
Wow, that must've been such an amazing experience!
This song & acoustic cover I been listening over and over again his voice and style is outstanding!! Man bro I hope you keep playing
Listening to this in the middle of the night. Thank you for making me feel calm enough to fall asleep
listening to the actual song is incomparable to hearing someone sing it in such a telling setting. thank you for this in a bad part of my life forest. always remember that your music may bring out emotions in people who don't know how to let them out in other methods, myself being partially that way, and you very well may be saving people.
This is probably one of the best covers of this song thanks dude
How lovely it would be to sit there next to you and sing along.. while we watch the stars and just be in the moment as two souls who long for the melodious whisper of love
Juste magnifique!!! Thanks from France!!!
🤍
I love your voice man. Don't be afraid of those falsettos, your falsetto sounds awesome 😄
Thank you man, I appreciate that! Yeah I haven’t practiced falsetto much but want to use it more
This is deserving of soo many more views! love it - makes me want to learn the song!
Man, your voice is amazing and you are a very talented guitar player. Love it
It’s sounds great, I would like to try to play the song on this tone, because the original is played in a higher tone, amazing cover 👏🏻
you are so talented love your covers and music
Tysm🤍
Fantastic. Haunting. Familiar.
I listened to a lot of Elliot Smith growing up. This made me feel similar to that.
You deserve a million subscribers man
Love your voice
amazing cover, amazing ambience, amazing sound, amazing
🤍
Wonderful cover, perfectly captures the eeriness that I love about this song while having a unique spin on it !
your guitar sounds so comforting like the strings just play so well 🫶
Damn, truly underated. This song on a lower register rocks
I love this so much. Thank you. The best from 🇲🇽.
🤍
Hey man! I brought the Tula Mic just because of this vid! Thank u very much man. My Coldplay Cover (Warning Sign) comes today, first time with Tula :D

Fr
Watching this in the middle of the night while being stoned just hits different
this is everything I needed right now (despite not knowing that I needed it)
Don't know why but this video touched my soul. Gosh, that's magical
It's my dream to bring my guitar with me in a park at 3 am and sing this song.
Beautiful ❤
Tysm🤍
Crazy how coldplay used to make songs like this
This makes me want to learn guitar and it makes me so peaceful
oh it's been a decade since I last cried thanks for this man I feel better now.
I was really looking forward to your falsetto, just go for it bro!!!
One of my favorites ❤
Thank you and God bless!
🙏😊❤️
❤️❤️❤️
This is acc art omfg please never stop
god, this is such a mood...I wish I could do this but I'm scared of my neighbors lmao
really great cover man!
These are the type of videos that would be recommend in your fyp 10 years later😭
That was amazing! thank you for posting this.
This is sounds so beautiful.
🤍
Men will literally play Sparks in a park at 3am instead of going to therapy 🫡
If its the outlet that brings you peace, then you are at peace. People will say anything to discredit the statement that finally, men are trying.
🫠
literal eargasm
Can’t explain to you how peaceful this is♥️ thanks for making this.
🤍
It sounds pretty nice, thanks ❤
I left the like before I even listen, just for the concept of playing in the park at 3am
bro’s music is majestic
You know how in The Voice they would press the button when they like what they're hearing? This is so lame but I feel that when I play a random cover, and it's safe to say this guy got my buzzer the moment he said "did I-" hahaha. But for real, this is beautiful!
Amazing cover bro you got talent
Love your cover, mate! 🔥
Dude your singing is perfection and guitar skills is superb. 🎉
I loved your cover of scientist so much, and realized I can harmonize with you in key and pitch that I did a mini sing along to forest Slater's cover of science by Coldplay. 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thank you so much🤍🤍 Ahhh now I want to hear it, feel free to DM me on Insta if you ever want to share I’d love to listen
บทเพลงบนโลกนี้มีเป็นพันล้านเพลง มันคงบังเอิญมากๆ ที่ทำให้คนที่มีความรู้สึกเช่นเดียวกัน มาฟังเพลงเดียวกัน เจ็บปวดใจแบบเดียวกัน Good job ครับ bro.❤
Never give up, you’re an amazing and beautiful human and I wouldn’t trade the time I spent listening to this for the world
🤍
Been following you for quite some time. I love the subtle numbing pain your voice. It makes me feel human, even if temporarily. Thank you! That's all i had to say
Thank you! I appreciate you following along, I’m glad you’ve been enjoying the videos🤍
I would looooove to hear you cover London Air Raids by Vian Izak!! I think it would sound so beautiful in your style too 🎶
Your voice is so beautiful…
Love It Great Cover!
So warm
Spectacular!❤
Best cover ever
idk what type of content to call this but i love it.
This filled the loneliness that seeps through my heart mom please play with me like u did...
