Played this more than any other song since the 1970s….. the fly down south…sad old man….all alone lyrics got me as a kid. They resonate sooo much more as an old man. Like my destiny was spelled out for me. Deep.
Nice job. Memories of my teens. Lots of weed smoked. Saw this concert at Jeppeson stadium where the Rice University Owls played football when the Animals album tour came to Houston Texas. It was life changing.
Learning to play this song has been a sort of Holy Grail to me for some time now. I never felt adequate enough to even begin the journey. But seeing you play it with such comfort and ease completely changed my perspective. Sat down with a guitar and started learning it the day before yesterday. Now I'm playing along with you pretty damn fluently. From one artist to another, thank you so much for the inspiration to climb when I was stuck on a plateau.
James, my guy... That was absolutely amazing! I knew after seeing that guitar that this was going to sound perfect. Thank you for sharing this gem! Love the voice.
Bloody amazing this kick started my pink Floyd obsession living in Hern Hill se London , in 1978 ,guy across the street blurring out this while I was hoovering up after a party 🙌🇬🇧❤️🤣
And the words: You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking And after a while, you can work on points for style Like the club tie, and the firm handshake A certain look in the eye and an easy smile You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to So that when they turn their backs on you, You'll get the chance to put the knife in You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder You know it's going to get harder, and harder, and harder as you get older And in the end you'll pack up and fly down south Hide your head in the sand, Just another sad old man All alone and dying of cancer And when you loose control, you'll reap the harvest you have sown And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone And it's too late to lose the weight you used to need to throw around So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone Dragged down by the stone (stone, stone, stone, stone, stone) I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this maze?

Dude I have watched this video like 100 times already. You play this Damn near perfect. Your vocals are on the mark. Please do more from Animals. You so Rock.
I've listened to this cover about 12 times already, I just love it! You're one of the few people I've seen covering this song that can play it like it's meant to be played - full of feeling and anticipation. Good job, man!
This cover is just an absolute masterpiece. I love your voice and the way you play the guitar just touches my soul man. I come back sometimes and watch this video and I'm impressed u know. You're just too good . This video deserves millions of views. Keep going❤
Just f*********n woof ❤️ I’ll fly to Europe just to jam James good playing and I agree with everything you said from the start to the end of jam so true
Amazing cover man. One of my all time favorite tunes and your version has now been saved to my playlist. Great vocals too, when you sand the line "the bad blood slows and turns to stone-" I got chills.
3:43 I hear the dogs howling, oh my god! Bow-wow-wow-wow. Wouuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuffff 🐕 Magnificent cover!!! Thank you for your playing. Your voice is also perfect! 👌🏻
Well that was just amazing. I was looking for an acoustic version for my girlfriend to try out and found this. I wasn't expecting your voice to sound that way. As soon as you started, a voice inside said "Hello!" and I was paying attention.
Just happened to tune in to your version and I was totally blown away. Nice guitar work, and you even look a little like young David Gilmore with that long hair. I will subscribe to here more. Great job.
Bro. That was pretty sick. I've heard Dogs 100s if not 1000s of times and save a few minor errors you absolutely nailed it on what seems like your first take.
Wow 😯😯😯😯😯😯😯 am speechless so so so so so so much talent in you’re guitar playing singing an voice best all round acoustic version I’ve ever seen 👌pukka
Great song. One of my favorite Floyd tunes. Also a nice surprise, since it is so often covered so badly. Kudos for the minimalist approach which serves to emphasize the brilliant songwriting over the production.
Spectacular cover!! Very impressive!! Best cover of this I have heard.His guitar has that perfect pitch for this song and his voice fits this song perfectly.

Disfrutenlo...

Nice job. Memories of my teens. Lots of weed smoked. Saw this concert at Jeppeson stadium where the Rice University Owls played football when the Animals album tour came to Houston Texas. It was life changing.
"I don't know why you don't see more cover versions on this song"
**misplaces pinkie on first strum** "that's probably why"
i felt that
Amazing guitar skills and voice. Animals is one of my favorite pink floyd albums. Congratulations amd thank you!
Sang with you the whole time, brother! Needed that.
Probably I played this cover more than 10 times, is so captivating, the voice tone is just perfect for this masterpiece
Thought I'd add a current comment/ compliment. Fabulous version. Bright spot in a dark time. Thanks bro.
Magical... even the mistakes are perfect.
Wow, that's brilliant! The song and album that got me into Pink Floyd. Excellent performance
Again and again I keep coming back and sharing this beautiful piece of music with friends.
When john frusciante decides to cover pink floyd.
Amazing!
I've known that song for so many years. Great interpretation !
Simply super play !!! WWooowwwww sounds like PF guys... Great performance !!!!

Brilliant, I would love to get this one off , great version

Still here confined, listening to this masterpiece cover
My favorite Floyd son. Great vocals! You nailed it, brother.
mate that is mint. great vocals
It’s great man Ik lol I keep coming back to listen to it
David would definitely approve.
Audience member: Can you do song from Animals, please?
David Gilmour: We'd still be here after turf out time if I did that.
CorporalClegg1000 😂😂😂😂😂👌 that was from the Albert concert , wasent you that shouted out can we have something from animals was it 🤔
@@peterwright5249 what year was this concert?
@@daviddockery8962 I can’t remember I see it on dvd it was the one when he played the great acoustic version of shine on on his own ,
@@peterwright5249 I ended up finding it. Funny stuff
@@daviddockery8962 👌👍
this is absolutely a wonderful cover......its been years since i have been listening to this and always amazes me
Always find myself coming back to this one! You're real good
And the words:
You gotta be crazy, you gotta have a real need
You gotta sleep on your toes, and when you're on the street
You gotta be able to pick out the easy meat with your eyes closed
And then moving in silently, down wind and out of sight
You gotta strike when the moment is right without thinking
And after a while, you can work on points for style
Like the club tie, and the firm handshake
A certain look in the eye and an easy smile
You have to be trusted by the people that you lie to
So that when they turn their backs on you,
You'll get the chance to put the knife in
You gotta keep one eye looking over your shoulder
You know it's going to get harder, and harder, and harder as you get older
And in the end you'll pack up and fly down south
Hide your head in the sand,
Just another sad old man
All alone and dying of cancer
And when you loose control, you'll reap the harvest you have sown
And as the fear grows, the bad blood slows and turns to stone
And it's too late to lose the weight you used to need to throw around
So have a good drown, as you go down, all alone
Dragged down by the stone (stone, stone, stone, stone, stone)
I gotta admit that I'm a little bit confused
Sometimes it seems to me as if I'm just being used
Gotta stay awake, gotta try and shake off this creeping malaise
If I don't stand my own ground, how can I find my way out of this maze?
Deaf, dumb, and blind, you just keep on pretending
That everyone's expendable and no-one has a real friend
And it seems to you the thing to do would be to isolate the winner
And everything's done under the sun
And you believe at heart, everyone's a killer
Who was born in a house full of pain
Who was trained not to spit in the fan
Who was told what to do by the man
Who was broken by trained personnel
Who was fitted with collar and chain
Who was given a pat on the back
Who was breaking away from the pack
Who was only a stranger at home
Who was ground down in the end
Who was found dead on the phone
Who was dragged down by the stone
Didn't expect it to be so good. Damn I'm just jealous now😭
Dude I have watched this video like 100 times already. You play this Damn near perfect. Your vocals are on the mark. Please do more from Animals. You so Rock.
Hi my friend James. Wow, I'm shocked. Well done, you and I are the same blood. Thank you. Your subscriber. Good luck.
Was expecting Roger to come out and play his bass alongside.
Just shared this on Facebook. Love it
I felt a tear slide down my cheek. If that's not a compliment...
I've listened to this cover about 12 times already, I just love it! You're one of the few people I've seen covering this song that can play it like it's meant to be played - full of feeling and anticipation. Good job, man!
I love that videos like these keep on giving emotions after years of being published. This is the youtube power
DAMN>.that was a good version! Makes me want to get better on guitar and makes me love this song even more....well done!!!@
Lots of emotion given to an emotional song. Bravo

Dude, f'n awesome cover. Top notch. Bravo!
Magic moment, thank you.
Wait! Now i will never know who was born in a house full of pain!!! Just kidding, excellent cover man!

Duuuuude. What an amazing cover. You play and sing fuckn' good. Congrats.

Og I have ever thought that no one would ever want to cover this song on RUclips. Breath-taking cover.

Got to be one of the best songs ever written imho, phenomenal chord progression, solo's and lyrics, you did a great job of it James
I never realised how mad the chords were. Like, whaat. Such genius.
You Sir Are A Very Good BAD MAN
Best Cover of a Floyd Song I have heard. Animals is a dark and powerful LP you have easily done it justice my friend.
Amazing cover man. One of my all time favorite tunes and your version has now been saved to my playlist. Great vocals too, when you sand the line "the bad blood slows and turns to stone-" I got chills.
Nicely done, my favorite song from my favorite band.
This is FAN-F'ING-TASTIC! -Well done!
Fantastic cover
Nice ! Thanks, I love this song !
DL Animal Sessions from a bit torrent proxy it’s early outtakes from Animals including a Snowy White solo on Pigs On The Wing.
Good job and great vocal also! I was expecting "Stone, stone, stone, stone...."
Дружище, молодец! Отличное исполнение! Ждём новых вещей Pink Floyd в Твоём исполнении!
Woooow wow wow! Unbelievably amazing. The best Pink Floyd cover I’ve ever seen.

Magnificent cover!!! Thank you for your playing. Your voice is also perfect! 👌🏻
Great Song One Of My Favorite Pink Floyd Songs
...actually it would NOT be mad to do all 20 minutes! This was bloody brilliant!!
I swear I could hear Rich's moog!
More people don't cover this song, because they can't pull it off, especially solo. Good job man!
This is better than most covers with all the instruments edited together perfectly :)
My favorite song from the album. I could listen to this all day. Great cover
Simply awesome!!
Well that was just amazing. I was looking for an acoustic version for my girlfriend to try out and found this. I wasn't expecting your voice to sound that way. As soon as you started, a voice inside said "Hello!" and I was paying attention.
Thank you bro... That was tight and sweet and exactly what I need to play along with to get that song down RIGHT ON!
I’d happily sit and watch all 20 minutes mate. Top drawer 👍
I forgot how amazing this song is. Great job.
Very well done! My deep respect. I also can hear the rest of this song behind the play. Very authentic performance!
My second dog was named dog after this song. He was a very cool mutt. I play a little guitar but not as well as you.just subscribed
you named your dog "dogs"?
C'mere, Dogs! ***whistles*** fwee fwee fwee fwee fwee
Bruh ur dog named dog why
Just shared this on Facebook
Outstanding!!!
That loose right wrist strumming makes it all happen with those first 4 chords!!
You do a really nice job with this one. 10 of 10
Just happened to tune in to your version and I was totally blown away. Nice guitar work, and you even look a little like young David Gilmore with that long hair. I will subscribe to here more. Great job.
4 accordi e una bella voce fanno un pezzo fantastico. bravo
Bro. That was pretty sick.
I've heard Dogs 100s if not 1000s of times and save a few minor errors you absolutely nailed it on what seems like your first take.
Really really good
Wow 😯😯😯😯😯😯😯 am speechless so so so so so so much talent in you’re guitar playing singing an voice best all round acoustic version I’ve ever seen 👌pukka
Amazing job 👏👏

Freakin' awesome bro! Probably the best solo / live acoustic Floyd cover I have seen. Respect! Watched every second of it :-)
Great song. One of my favorite Floyd tunes. Also a nice surprise, since it is so often covered so badly. Kudos for the minimalist approach which serves to emphasize the brilliant songwriting over the production.
