- Ray Lamontagne's acoustic (and beautiful) cover of Gnarls Barkley's song 'Crazy'
I remember when
I remember, when I lost my mind
There was something so pleasant about that phase
Even your emotions had an echo
In so much space
And when you're out there
Without care
I was out of touch
It wasn't because I didn't know enough
I just knew too much
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Does that make me crazy
Probably
An I hope that you are having the time of your life
Oh but think twice
That's my only advice
Come on now
Who do you
Who do you think you are
Woah Woah
Bless your soul
Do you really think that you're in control
Well I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
I think you're crazy
Just like me, yeah
My heroes had the heart
To lose their lives out on a limb
An all I remember
Is thinking I wanna be like them
Ever since I was little it looked like fun
It was no coincidence that I've come
I can die when I'm done
Maybe I'm crazy
Maybe you're crazy
Maybe we're crazy
Probably
A la la la la la la
a la la, a la la, a la la, a la la
yeah, yeah, yeah
wo-ah, woah, woah, woah, woah
lay lay lay lay
a la la, a la la, a la la, a la la

So annoying that this is not on spotify.. One of my all time favorite covers
Yes!!!!
@@shawnlawton5674 was just looking for it there. : (
Very annoying indeed!!!
Months later and it isn't even on Soundcloud anymore... Sad days, my friends...
Why is it not on Spotify. I wanna know
My life would have not been complete without having heard this.
This!!!
Agreed. Yes exactly. This man has completed my musical souls needs ;)
How would you know?
mine too i guess
@@MrHandsomeboynow i dont make the rules :/
One of the rare covers that completely transforms the song, while paying proper homage to the original.
Elegantly Professed
This is the guy who wrote it
@@peterdoherty8518 wrong! This is an italian composition taken from the soundtrack of the spaghetti western film "Preparati la bara!", by Ferdinando Baldi; The track composed by Gianfranco & Gian Piero Reverberi, is titled "Nel cimitero di Tucson"
spot on
That smokey voice is killing.
its melting
Hmmm :)
🎵☀️🎵
This man's voice is HONEY.
this man's voice is the bees knees
+Shan-chan Ichiban It's the bear's hair
+Sorryscene Best response to the way i feel ever.
+Sorryscene Honey as fuck. Too bad his last album wasn't.
No doubt Mike D. Ray must of been on a coke binge and needed some fast cash. LOL
This man has more talent than 90 percent of the mainstream artists today.
@@asosyalpicimamk I've been in music 25 years . I would say I know the majority of them. New ones are always coming out but honestly the majority of radio play is 50 percent talented artists and the other 50 percent talented PR departments
I'm not trying g so the % is larger
No. Love him & this cover, but no.
@@augustin3 if you are in the music industry you know- this guy is absolutely more talented than 90%
He writes his own songs which are phenomenal and he creates simple beautiful arrangements himself, and he plays and sings beautifully- the high high high majority of artists have co-writers or ghost writers and can’t do an arrangement to save their lives, let alone sing well without auto tune lol
Don’t let the cowboy chords fool you
I JUST found out through 23 & Me that this artists mother is my Dad's 1st Cousin.
This guy could cover *any* song and it would sound amazing!
Get him to cover Barbie Girl by Aqua, and make that argument.
@@themightyleeoh5867I was about to post that exact same suggestion 😂
10 years later, I am still listening to this vid.
👌 Best cover ever?
Lamontagne is a big mountain of talent.
+Kleyson Pontes talent plus life lived hard, a struggle, a huge heart
Never. Ever. Assume.
+Cy Borg it's not a physical struggle to survive, but a psychological one.
urgh
I get it
I love that this was posted in 08 and people are still viewing and liking it. Keep good music in circulation.

this is SO unbelievably good, 4.15 minutes of procrastination well spent...
Dude ,you're so right , this comment needs more appreciatiom
L
This just may be my favorite cover of all time. Hendrix 'Watchtower' and Jeff Buckley 'Hallelujah' level awesome.
Personally, the greatest cover of all time is quite easily hurt by johnny cash, that song is brutally better than the already good original by nine inch nails
Pre1321 saw him last night. He has soul x
Jeff Buckleys for damn sure. Still brings a tear to my eye every time I hear is rendition. His dad was a singer as well and you can hear where he got his voice. His dad was Tim Buckley.
@My name is August West
Brash? Arrogant? Yes.
One-hit wonder? ......
You'd be hard-pressed to find a Brit who can't sing along to all of "Don't Look Back in Anger", and most of the rest of the world will come in on the chorus.
More people have bought Oasis music than all but 4 other bands. In history.
3 of those 4 are Queen, the Rolling Stones, and (of course) The Beatles. (Also ABBA, but the 70s were confusing, and there's no accounting for Scandinavians)
Oasis were jerks when they were young; but if you're counting hits, character doesn't enter into it. I'll take their music and leave the tantrums.
Also, Ryan Adams' cover of "Wonderwall" is absolutely incredible!
@jkaanta8555 To be perfectly frank, at the time, Americans could get 12 cds for a penny through BMG and other companies.And Oasis was one of those CDs. Not a soul I know went into the store and asked for Oasis. It was literally force fed. Also. I don't know any of the words to Don't look Back in Anger, and neither do any of my 40+ year old friends. Wonderwall? Every douche bag with a guitar played it, and all of us cringed in unison and hated that guy.
...when the performance is so good, you dread the song ending, and you want it to flow forever, like a river.
Rivers don't flow forever, every river has a source and a mouth.
William hick forever describes time not distance
Chris Roland well then it is incorrect to compare it to a river, no river flows forever.
William hick Stop your nonsense and enjoy the music. Like H20, water is ever-present and ephemeral. Riverbed is just one of the 'solid' entities that contains it when it is not traveling in more invisible evaporated forms or in form of raindrops, condensation, fog, etc. etc. If I have to take sides, Chris Rolad is the smartest in his response because he understood I was referring to the quality of 'timelessness' or dissolution of the barrier between visible and 'invisible' or immaterial matter that nevertheless can still touch us, envelope us...
You sound fucking high.
His voice really adds gravity to the lyrics. Never needed this song more than I do now.
I could not have read/heard something more relevant to my today than your shared emotion of thought. I am sliding off the face of the mountain ,I had no business climbing. Or creating.
Thank you. I just caught my breath!
This version still kills me. Ray's passion and voice and the slow/acoustic rendering of it just make the lyrics seem so more profound than in the original.
This is an italian composition taken from the soundtrack of the spaghetti western "Preparati la bara!", by Ferdinando Baldi; The track composed by Gianfranco & Gian Piero Reverberi, is titled "Nel cimitero di Tucson"
His voice could smoke salmon. No idea; it was the first thing that came to mind.
I can't explain why that sounds so accurate...but you're _right_.
MrPlaiedes 😂😂😂😂😂 i oddly got that
Stephanie Young h
MrPlaiedes Funnily I got it too;-)
lol
This version gave the song it's true meaning!!! Mind blown!!!
same. id heard it hundreds of times then i heard this and it all made sense. crazy
Did you listen to the lyrics in the original ? The meaning was always there...
Try mushrooms, then come back to this spot....
@@leighcotterell2302 yall dont want to listen yall just want to dance lol
@@sofakingwetodddid1685 Correct...I LOVE both "versions." But, Ray's is a soul cry...
Still listening to this in February 2024!
definitely, me too!
@@hairwegoagain2 Me2
Well, what can I say? Sawyer Fredericks has introduced me to an absolutely fabulous singer.... This guy is stellar.... a good cover like this of a fine classic... well.... this is just fabulous work.
So so special. How do we get the world to hear this? Raw, passionate, real. A true gem.
The fact I can say my mom introduced his music to be when I was just a toddler makes me really proud of the awesome woman she is 💖
Colby Jeannine let me sing to u
Count yourself lucky. Mine introduced me to James Blunt.
+Thomas King
and mine introduced me to just "blunts" XD
Armaan I wish mine did. It'd have numbed out the Blunters (James that is).
@@armaanrandev7336 I'm dead 🤣🤣
god, found this song when i was 15, now im 22. its still amazes me
Gus Hersey omg same, i found this song when I was like 12 or younger and now I'm 16
Gus Hersey i found this when i was 13 now i have 16 :3

Gus Hersey yep, this as well as obadiah parker's hey ya were huge for me and my friend my freshman year of high school, we listened to and played them seemingly endlessly. I'm now 23 and it's still a treat to listen to this, brings me back.
44 yo, found this today
...when someone's singing is so great it touches your soul and makes it wanna cry with.
Crazy. Every time I listen this song, no matter which version, i have to listen it at least one or two times more. I hits me every single time since i heard it the first time. what a masterpiece
Exactly the same, and this cover is my next fav after Gnarls version from The Basement
His voice is... smokey. Thats the word that comes to mind.
This cover proves that he can sing ANYTHING and always be fantastic!
Hurdy me too!! It's fantastic
I think im crazy for listening to this 100000 times
Noor Ahmed 🤣🤣🤣🤣
No
This is a soulful rendition to this masterpiece of a song, He has a simplicity that is layered with depth... 💞 🎼🎶
This voice is what make me Crazy.
He was sent to Earth to sing, obviously.
So was I, but I'm not a star and LaMontagne is ... what's wrong with this picture!?
You spellt fuck bitch wrong
make money .....make money
Whos thet greatest!!!!
....line starts here!!!!!!!
real
Or he was born on earth and learned how to sing very well.. that seems much more obvious to me
@@maxiepattie85 what?
🤣🙏🏽🌟
Ray's voice is pure feeling
Amazing voice. One of those rare instances where the cover is better than the original.
I feel emotion through every single syllable that he sings!
That voice man..shhhhshhhh
He's so underated. LOVE YOU RAY
his voice is full of sophisticated emotions
Ahh...sophisticated emotions 😢brilliant 👏describes his voice perfectly 🥰
Ray is a very talented young man that expresses from the heart. We need more entertainment like him. A very sincere person. Thank you, Ray, Blessings...
Young? The dude is 41...
stav3455
tu sais ce qu'ils te disent les vieux de 41 ans !!!!
stav3455 41 is still pretty young
The person who said that is name is Ethel. He is probably young to her.
His version of Crazy is just awesome ...His voice reach the inner chamber within me.... Cleansing my soul..
I decided to check out his other songs and came across this. This man could sing the phone book and make it sound amazing. His voice is awesome and matches his talent
Great cover. Ray is a very much needed and soulful voice in a time of technology overdose and terrible generic studio music. Bless this man and light to all 🌈🙏
Probably the best cover I've ever heard of a song
I can't explain how much I love this song and version of this song
Better version,.God I love this guy!!!!
This song is fuckin' great, man. Absolute masterpiece.
Musicians out there, this is how you cover a song.
Why isn't he crazy famous? The music industry is fucked up :/
Ray Lamontagne is pretty famous. songs on the radio, songs on commercials. you just have to listen to a certain genre of music to know hes famous.
Thats why: its an industry, not the bes place for real artists
so true, so tired ...
Lynda Clark He is famous no doubt but he is not overly celebrated in music. Never see him perform at award shows or even given acknowledgement for this music.
i remember when i been a little younger music was soo damn nice , now days i dunno there some sh!t and alot of butts shakin 😏
His voice is like a cup of hot chocolate on a snowy, winter night.
Intense and soulful. Love his voice SO much!
His music speaks to me. He sings of the human experience. It's a shame artists like these don't get the attention they deserve.
Love this version! He infuses the song with so much passion.
DAAAAAYUUUUUM...That VOICE and such TALENT...Drips honey
Wow. I'm blown away.
Last time I BBQ'D I didn't have any BBQ sauce, I was playing Ray lamontagne while I was grilling and smoking.. my ribs were "smokey" and "sweet" and the brisket was "tender" and very moist.. it was such a simple thing..
Oh my damn.... Why haven't I heard his cover of this until NOW?!
Coming back to this over and over again for 14 years now!
Me too!
Yeah man i cant remember when this song caught me but it has never let go
This version just kicks ass..
How good is this mans voice?? Awesome. Hooked is an understatement.
I find myself listening to this on a regular basis… well done , Ray.
I have schizo affective disorder which means that I go through occasional periods of insanity resembling schizophrenia. This version of this song makes me cry... Thanks, Ray.
I have always been coming to this video to listen to this song since it was made. Thank you from Alaska.
It's 2016 and I still remember when i lost my mind
What was it like?
America also lost its mind in 2016.
His voice #Perfection
Totally Awesome bless him lord for he has helped many going threw depression n anxiety n grieving hearts...to say what they feel ...when you can't find the words ....when your so hurt you can't even talk about how you feel ......helped me grieve in silence n also let go of my brother.thanks Ray
Best I've ever heard!!!
I've downloaded this and can't stop playing it. Gives me chills.
This man should have a record company
The lyrics are meaningful for me. Ray's raspy voice delivers those lyrics perfectly.
❤ ok my world is 100 times better and now complete. Hearing his voice sing my favorite song. I can die happy now.
how have i missed this all these years?! LOVE IT!
just discovered him tonight and that was my thoughts precisely !
anz10 i have been crazy for ray for years! he has soooo much fabulous music that has been underrated and passed over for too long. glad he's getting his due now! he did a great job on this song too!
For some reason, this is one of my favorite songs ... first time I heard it by Ray Lamontagne ... I like it very much. I actually can understand/hear the lyrics which is great.
Wow... Ray never stops impressing me!!! Every time I listen to him I am inspired to write more music.
Beautiful man beautiful voice beautiful soul. I can listen to him all day. Trouble is my favorite though. He's just so soothing.
Crazy about his sound..He has a lovely sexy swag in his voice...Poetry777
Love this song from day one, but i have to say Ray gives it a whole different feel...good!
Just my favorite song (and version) of the world.
this is poetry...and art
Between the vocals and guitar this version is as perfect as an acoustic covers gets. Better than the original. Love it.
Que voz, Ray, que voz! *-*
You gotta be kidding me,... This guy is GOLD
Even Ron Swanson would shed a tear to this perfection
Ray canta com a alma.
great version - great voice! Love it!
He used to make shoes, could you imagine working next to him and listening to him singing while he works! Lol! Love his voice! One of my all time favs!
He makes me feel like there are still prophets among us. I met him once after a show he did in my home town, he was a very quiet but incredibly genuine person. People had been crowded around him for a while before I finally got a chance to talk to him; they weren't really trying to get autographs, they just wanted to give him a hug and tell him how much he had helped them.
.
.
I love how raspy his voice is
.
.
it makes me want to cry and laugh at the same time bcuz its so beautiful....
does that make me crazy?
HOT DAMN
I would kill to see him play live
Tara-song called shelter Live bbc amazing version
william barkenbush thank you so much! I shall listen to it tomorrow :-)

I so love this version of this song and Ray Lamontagne is is amazing.
were all mad here , this is a mad world and the only thing that truly make's sence here is Music. briliant cover
True.
His voice is just magical.
I found this song today... And just at the right time in my life too, it means so much to me. it's sentimental in its own inspirational, soulful way. thank you Ray, you are a life saver. this songs been on repeat since I stumbled across it.
So glad I just discovered Ray Lamontagne! What a gorgeously raw voice.
Can you imagine being serenaded by this voice? *swoons*
Guy could sing the phonebook and I'd love it!
This cover and James Bay's cover of If I Ain't Got You are the best covers I've heard.
I found this song back in 2015, never stopped listening to it till now.
Cigar, scotch, honey, tears of masculine representation.
Vaporizer, bong, stillness, brimming of a confident smile[.
@@beverlydavison4699 forgot the shrooms. They are the key.
@@blackopal3138 lol
I love this musician. True musician. Right on, bro! 🙂 Gossip In The Grain is a suburb album - Like Ryan Adam’s Hearbreaker - that will never die. 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
How have I never heard his cover of this song?! Ray is absolutely AMAZING!
That voice... resonates to the deepest part of my soul. His voice is amazing!
