this is truly a masterpiece, I remember I watched this video 8 years ago then I just search this video tonight to listen this cover again and again! So please don't stop making music cover video like this!
Hi Gabe, My grandmother passed away yesterday and I was wondering if you could play one of her and my grandfather's favorites, "Misty". You can jazz it up and make it your own. My heart is aching and your voice always soothes my soul. Come to Chicago again! I believe you know one of my best friends' father, he's a Lancero :]!
I'm also a kpop fan and a fan of seventeen, but I have listened to Gabe Bondoc before Joshua mentioned him as an inspiration, and so when I found out that he listens to him and sings his songs I started fangirling lol. Both of them are great artists
Yet another awesome rendition of a song! I'm so glad the style of you're videos have remained the same after all these years and you haven't decided to go and record a studio version then try and film a video clip in other locations. Which I think looks nice, but I have much more appreciation when someone is just sitting in front of their camera jamming. Keep doing what you're doing x
im a Filipino but i don't know Gabe Bondoc until Joshua Hong of Seventeen mentions you as his musical influece,*le cry* your my favorite now....i really love all your cover.!!!
Gabe, I've been following you since 5, 6 years ago in my college years listening to you in my dorm, making my bad days into good. Now many years later I'm still enjoying your music and videos just as much, and every time I listen to you I want to pick up my guitar again. Thank you so much for staying the same you as when you first started, and continuously sharing your love of music with us. Much love from a fan in NY. :)
Its awesome to see how you can make all these covers sound so great acoustically! For a future video I'd like to know how you come up with the chord progressions in all of your covers and original songs, the color and tension you provide in some of your chords adds so much to the piece making it even more interesting and emotional. Even if you could just make a list of rules you follow to create chord progressions that would be fantastic!
i've loved your covers since high school. not gonna lie when my friend shared it on my page i was like "oh god this is gonna suck" nothing to do with you personally (like i said i love you) but i love that song so much that i honestly couldn't fathom another voice (especially a male voice) doing it. having said that you KILLED IT!!!! if i had never heard the song before i would've thought you wrote it. loved the fact that you didn't try to compete you simply made it your own. can't wait to see what you do next
You got talent.. I'm impressed.. so much so that I thought it would be great practice to figure out the chords to this version.. thank you music teacher :D I only wrote out parts of it because.. there's a lot of variation.. but i think it's basically like this.. Intro and 1st verse (more or less) Cadd9 (x3203x) Dadd4 (x5403x) Bmin7 (x2423x) D/F# (2x023x) E/G# (4x245x) C/A (5x555x) G (32003x) Cadd9 (x3203x) Cmin9 (x3103x) the 1st verse is a little different for the last 2 chords.. it's like.. C#min7 (x4645x) G (x5543x) Chorus G (320033) Gmaj7 (320032) Em (022000) Em7add9 (022032) Amin (x02210) Gmaj7 (320032) Cadd9 (x3203x) Dadd4 (x5403x) ok.. it's not exactly Em.. it's like.. Em9 but.. i prefer Em better.. i'm such a bad student..! :p but seriously.. thank you for this great cover :D
Gabe! I've been subscribed to you for years, and I hope you know that you're a huge inspiration. What you've done with this song has blown me away, you never fail to amaze me with your twist on the songs you cover. Never stop doing what you're doing, because people like me look up to you as a source of hope and inspiration on a way more personal/realistically attainable level than the stars we see on T.V. Thanks for another beautiful rendition!
Same here :) thanks to joshua I get to hear his amazing voice! I'm so proud to be a Filipino. By the way, joshua is one of my biase's' in seventeen. I really love his voice :D
I really do appreciate musicians on youtube that film their videos like this instead of all those 'fancy' music videos. Yes, sure, they want to deliver the best to their viewers but I personally think that a video like this is more..genuine :)
1. Been dying to get a 1279 shirt. 2. Still waiting for you to come to Atlanta since Summertime! 3. Chords for your Blank Space cover? :D #TeamGBForever
Absolutely incredible rendition Gabe! You've always been my favorite. I swear I listened to your cover a hundred times today. Come back to Hawaii soon! =)
When you started the video, I was afraid that I wasn't going to like the changes you made because I love the melody of this song, but man this was awesome! I don't know why I had any doubt to begin with, once again great work!
I really don't understand why you have only 300,000 subscribers... You're really amazing and you're realy talented. You're really good at singing and you're also good at playing guitar! You're really awsome!
Thank you for sharing your music. I've watched you for years and I can't tell you how much I love your covers & songs and how they always make my day. Truly, amazingly talented.
I've been watching you for 5 years now. Thanks for always singing so well and working so hard to be consistent on your videos. I'm glad you always have fun singing your songs, haha. Peace, love, and lol :p
wow this is amazing! i already couldn't get this song out of my head and now i think i'm going to listen to your rendition on replay this whole weekend :D
Again great singing and guitar playing! Thank you for your consisteny on working on new songs for us! Would love to see more tutorials from your own songs! Ok have a nice day Gabe and thank you!

Hi Gabe,
My grandmother passed away yesterday and I was wondering if you could play one of her and my grandfather's favorites, "Misty". You can jazz it up and make it your own. My heart is aching and your voice always soothes my soul. Come to Chicago again! I believe you know one of my best friends' father, he's a Lancero :]!
This would be amazing.
your dad is friends with my dad? cool! :)
This is awesome! Dude, you have one hell of a voice. :)
iPrevail spreading the love. great cover guyss.
You guys had a great cover too. Hope to see you play in LA someday.
Hi Gabe! My favorite kpop idol is Seventeen Joshua, he said that you is his inspriration in music. Then i search for you and omg you so amazing
oh my gosh. im not the only one! im more shocked when Josh Mentioned that Gabe is a Filipino so i searched it up real quick
I'm also a kpop fan and a fan of seventeen, but I have listened to Gabe Bondoc before Joshua mentioned him as an inspiration, and so when I found out that he listens to him and sings his songs I started fangirling lol. Both of them are great artists

Underappreciated comment! So true! Hate those over produced videos!
this is what defines Gabe Bondoc. his renditions of songs is his own style. you say gabe bondoc and you think of a perfectionist.
You're on a bit of a roll with your covers lately Gabe, nicely done!
When he got to the "'cuz darling you're a nightmare dressed like a daydream" part, my heart melted! Such a beautiful rendition!
im a Filipino but i don't know Gabe Bondoc until Joshua Hong of Seventeen mentions you as his musical influece,*le cry*
your my favorite now....i really love all your cover.!!!
Same here! I'm also filipino and Joshua Hong of Seventeen also brought me here. high five. ☺
ChangLineShim hahahah.wow.fan ka din ng SVT??

You put so much soul into your playing. Nothing short of amazing
Joshua from Seventeen brought me here!!
...impressed!!
me too!!!! *gives a high 5*
S___ R 🙋

You made a pop song soulful, good job! Love your cover :)

The intro chords was perfection.. I love your covers so much ! I simply love you Gabe haha :) xx keep going
Hey man been a fan for years. Thought a cover of Taylor Swift's - "Clean" would definitely suit you and your renditions! Would love to see it.
i've loved your covers since high school. not gonna lie when my friend shared it on my page i was like "oh god this is gonna suck" nothing to do with you personally (like i said i love you) but i love that song so much that i honestly couldn't fathom another voice (especially a male voice) doing it. having said that you KILLED IT!!!! if i had never heard the song before i would've thought you wrote it. loved the fact that you didn't try to compete you simply made it your own. can't wait to see what you do next
I live in Austin, Texas; they say we're the live music capital of the world. You should totally make a stop here, I'd love to see you! :)
AGREED. AUSTIN TEXAS NEEDS YOU.
Kina's already done a few trips in ;)

Well I WAS gonna cover this too but nothing can beat this!!!
Hands down one of my favorite covers on RUclips! I love love love what you did with the song, Gabe. You never cease to amaze me.
Hi gabebondoc!
Please do "Sugar" by Maroon 5! Thanks!
Gabe! I've been subscribed to you for years, and I hope you know that you're a huge inspiration. What you've done with this song has blown me away, you never fail to amaze me with your twist on the songs you cover. Never stop doing what you're doing, because people like me look up to you as a source of hope and inspiration on a way more personal/realistically attainable level than the stars we see on T.V. Thanks for another beautiful rendition!

When you started the video, I was afraid that I wasn't going to like the changes you made because I love the melody of this song, but man this was awesome! I don't know why I had any doubt to begin with, once again great work!
I'd love to hear your version of Take Me to Church by Hozier!
Great cover as always! Also I love how you flash words on screen with the past few videos too xD
Reppin' Filipinos.

Nigga can sing but he can't do math for shit. Hahaha jk.
You must be new nigga. 1, 2, 3 + 4 = 7, 4 + 5 = 9. This is somehow his signature. Well, who can't do math? Haha.
Shemmuel Elmido just a wild thought..probably its his Birthday 12.7.9 which is December '7' 198'9' :))
Gerard Troy Baldevia HALF LIFE 3 CONFIRMED!!

OMYGOSH I never thought I would hear a version that would make me like mainstream music!!
This is probably the best version I've heard of the song, so so good!
I've been watching you for 5 years now. Thanks for always singing so well and working so hard to be consistent on your videos. I'm glad you always have fun singing your songs, haha.
