Beautiful! I typically don't listen to covers of Ben Howard because I don't think anybody can do him justice. He's the best. But you come very, very close. I'm impressed! 😊
I knew the guy on the Voice looked familiar...and then it clicked! Was a huge fan of this cover when you released it back in the day. Awesome to see you up there now on the big stage! Keep it up!
You're a great guitar player! I know how tricky that little riff is and I like the extra little hammer on you added. I'm trying to learn this song right now and it's impossible!
im impressed, keep going at it. you have a bright future up ahead if you keep going, good voice and good tone of voice too. dont know if you take any requests but if so, try something from city and colour. Glad i bumped into your cover.
hey I know this comment is a little late but I was wondering if you can do more ben howard covers? your voice is beautiful and gives me the chills every time. thanks☺
Don't beat yourself up, it is very hard. All I can say is keep trying and trying. There's no chance you'll never be able to do it. If you keep trying, you'll get it down, I promise. It's tough though!!
Yeah, I'll I can do pretty well is the song Promise, by Ben Howard, other songs I seem to struggle with :/ but I will keep trying. Really funky feeling of doing both singing and finger picking.
Easily the BEST cover I've stumbled upon. You have true, raw talent, my friend. I've been looking to pick up a Dean as well. How has it treated you since you've had it?
Hey Jacob I know this is an old video but I'm hoping you see this, my friend loves Ben Howard and I'm picking a guitar up again for the first time in 6 years and want to learn this as it's her favorite song. Ben uses some very odd tunings and even though I can play on open E and have done tapping I'd rather not, I'd rather use a capo from standard tuning. Can you let me know what tuning you're using here is it just a capo over standard tuning? You've done a really really good job and I'm desperate to make her heart melt so if you can help me out I'd be so grateful. Thanks in advance my dude. Atb.
Wow dude as soon as your voice came in I was hooked
wow this was like a foreshadowing of his The Voice Journey! go Jacob!
Wow. So nice to see someone playing it just as Ben does. Brilliant work mate

I happily watched that from beginning to end. Well done, I look forward to future covers and your own songs perhaps?
I have a couple originals, but I still feel they might not be completely finished! But I'll eventually be posting originals!
Dude, nice job. Ben Howard is a genius and nailing his songs is a crazy task! Awesome.

Fantastic well done
hey I know this comment is a little late but I was wondering if you can do more ben howard covers? your voice is beautiful and gives me the chills every time. thanks☺
How do you learn to pick and sing at the same time? I have so much trouble with it /:
Don't beat yourself up, it is very hard. All I can say is keep trying and trying. There's no chance you'll never be able to do it. If you keep trying, you'll get it down, I promise. It's tough though!!
Yeah, I'll I can do pretty well is the song Promise, by Ben Howard, other songs I seem to struggle with :/ but I will keep trying. Really funky feeling of doing both singing and finger picking.
Awesome cover, thank you!
Lovely❤️ im surprised that there arent that many covers of this song. Youre really talented, I hope this picks up some speed👏👏
This is so good oh my god. Your voice is amazing!
shocked me. i look forward to whats to come
Great performance man
awesome cover... great job dude...
why are you picking only with the thumb and index, i used to do that but when i started training with the other fingers everything seems easier
the intro is how it sounds to relax peacefully in a sunset meadow
Beautifully done. Still trying to improve on my fingerpicking, I'm impressed with this
Easily the BEST cover I've stumbled upon. You have true, raw talent, my friend. I've been looking to pick up a Dean as well. How has it treated you since you've had it?
Corey Skidmore Oh thanks man, means a lot! It's treated me very well. Good guitar to have, however I probably won't use that as my main forever!
Love this cover so much. Thank you!
Loved it.
Great job dude!
Hey, I just find it and this is SO good I had to leave a comment! :)
Beautiful! Love this slightly smoky voice

Its CGCGGC tuning, capo on 5th fret. Late reply, but I hope it helps.
This man is sooo good
Respect, you're good man
Never understood how can anyone play something so complex on the guitar while singing... Dude you are good!

Amazing!
Amazingly done!! :)
Magnificent!
Maaan, you're gooood!!!
