deffinetly different. very good recording quality. i kinda miss the main riff that's in the original song, but i really like how you did it too. the added guitar is cool

I like it, it almost has an 80's feel to it...especially the electric.
It is diffenent but I like that, people get so caught up on making things sound like the original and that is drap and boring...
You should tab the acoustic out for people, sounds good....
Keep them coming.

Everything was awesome except the wailing electric solos.

One of my favorite songs, haha

Awesome cover man, I actually listened to this one all the way through. As for the electric guitar, I can't decide if I like it or not. On one hand, it kinda feels like it doesn't fit over the acoustic guitar and the vocal style...on the other hand, the song might feel a little less interesting without it. All around, it was very solid dude, mad props

Very odd you posted this yesterday. Yesterday would have been my good friend's brother's(Adam) 18th birthday today. He committed suicide nearly two years ago.

I liked it. The electric guitar was a great addition. Good voice too.

Nice job.

I think its just the major open chords instead of whatever blink plays for power chords, at least i'd imagine, i did that and it sounded similar. just take a look at any tab and slow it down

solid cover. Talk about an oldy but a goody....hahaha. Voice is solid...rhythm guitar was good, and so was the lead guiar. I offer nothing to help you progess, but I think you did a great job. What kind of electric are you playing?

Wow, I love this song and you definitly did a great job covering. I like how you made it your own in a way, at least not what everyone would expect, which is very good. Solid Job. I agree though, the electric was a bit much. Given the song, I would have much rather heard a piano palying the fills.


But nevertheless, good job.

Agreed. I think a great cover is slightly different than the original. Adding jams and solos into it deffinatly improve it, I think. It shows originality and adds color to the song. I really like this one! Nice job!
