Agreed! You did a great job with this cover. The background vocals and lead guitar you layered make this my favorite cover of this awesome song...and this is one of my all time favorites!!!

One word... Wow. It'll also forever be my favourite Bad Religion song (even though 21st Century Digital Boy got me hooked on them). I didn't think anyone would do their songs justice, but your acoustic version blew me away!
Hey dude, me again. i love the description. i feel the same way. i still remember the summer day when i first saw the video of American Jesus. it was my favourite back then. And i loved how this is white and black to pay homage to it. Major, major props, man.
Have u done a demo cd or any recordings??u cud get in a studio no problem whatsoever, I'm a singer/songwriter so I can really appreciate what you're doing,my favourite is ur generator cover it's spot on,I'm a big fan.hope u still play..EXCELLENT..
Oh God, at 2:42, how you added "Sing it looouuud!" and the facial expression with it..... best part of the video, and so creative, to add that. major props again.
Oh man... you really are fucking awesome. Sitting at the fire place my garden and listen to your songs is the best you can do on days like this. Greetings from Germany!!
Jesus man, dont love the over riding harmonies, but from the notes to perfect lyrics and not missing a beat. Flawless cover mate! Appoligize i skeptical when I pressed watch
Hey guy, ur one of the best cover-singer that i know. I love your interpretations of the songs from Bad Religion. Please do more of that. Maybe 21 century or punk rock song?!
Listen because I have problems with "Only precious few Can garner the prosperity". Didn't help me with that but I enjoy the song and the back vocals. Good Job!
That was awesome, your cover was really cool, you have a great talent and congratulations, keep going on that way, you have a great future :D Greetings from Argentina
I don't need to be a global citizen Because I'm blessed by nationality I'm member of a growing populace We enforce our popularity There are things that seem to pull us under And there are things that drag us down But there's a power and a vital presence That's lurking all around We've got the American Jesus See him on the interstate We've got the American Jesus He helped build the president's estate I feel sorry for the earth's population 'Cause so few live in the U.S.A. At least the foreigners can copy our morality They can visit but they cannot stay Only precious few can garner the prosperity It makes us walk with renewed confidence We've got a place to go when we die And the architect resides right here We've got the American Jesus Fostering their shame on faith We've got the American Jesus Overwhelming millions every day He's the farmers barren fields The force the army wields The expression in the faces of the starving millions The power of the man he's the fuel that drives the clan He's the motive and conscience of the murderer He's the preacher on t.v., the false sincerity The form letter that's written by the big computers The nuclear bombs and the kids with no moms And I'm fearful that he's inside me We've got the American Jesus See him on the interstate We've got the American Jesus Exercising his authority We've got the American Jesus Fostering their shame on faith We've got the American Jesus Overwhelming millions every day, eah One nation, under god. One nation, under god. One nation, under god. One nation, under god. One nation, under god. One nation, under god. One nation, under god. One nation, under god. One nation, under god. One nation, under god. One nation, under god.
Actually, Bandits of the Acoustic Revolution (another of Tomas Kalnoky's projects) has a song called "The Provide the Paint for the Picture-Perfect Masterpiece That You Will Paint on the Insides of Your Eyelids" that starts very much like this cover (I always thought it was an homage), so in one way or another, it's possible that you could be reminded of Streetlight Manifesto by this. (by the way if you're into Streetlight's style and haven't heard of BotAR, you should totally check them out, they have an amazing EP!)
Can you make a tutorial on the chords? My band's doing this version of American Jesus and I don't actually know the chords to anything (I'm a bassist, not a guitarist, but I want to do rhythm guitar on this).

First I was like, "How is he picking the melody out so clear while playing the chords?" and then I heard the overdubbed vocals as said "ah ha." Anyway great job.
it's super hard to go up against a band like bad religion, but you somehow manage to pull it off and it's pretty incredible
Many thanks ! =)
Agreed!
You did a great job with this cover.
The background vocals and lead guitar you layered make this my favorite cover of this awesome song...and this is one of my all time favorites!!!
Fully agree! Absolutely great cover!
There will be always a way! Music is beautiful!
I don't need to be a global citizen

We've got the American Jesus
See him on the interstate
We've got the American Jesus
He helped build the president's estate
I feel sorry for the Earth's population
'Cause so few live in the USA

We've got the American Jesus (ah)
Bolstering national faith (ah, ah, ah)
We've got the American Jesus (ah, ah, ah)
Overwhelming millions every day (ah, ah)
He's the farmers' barren fields (in God)
The force the army wields (we trust)
The expression on the faces of the starving millions (because he's one of us)
The power of the man (break down)
The fuel that drives the Klan (cave in)
He's the motive and the conscience of the murderer (we can redeem your sin)
He's the preacher on TV (strong heart)
The false sincerity (clear mind)
The form letter that's written by the big computers (and infinitely kind)
The nuclear bombs (you lose)

reminds me of streetlight manifesto the way you do it
Shadowed Past as a big Streetlight fan, I don't see the comparison whatsoever.

really good.
Sensacional!
OMG Perfect!!!!!!!!!!!!
Nice ending note and chord.

Can you make a tutorial on the chords? My band's doing this version of American Jesus and I don't actually know the chords to anything (I'm a bassist, not a guitarist, but I want to do rhythm guitar on this).
Dude I love your covers. If you have any merch or shirts for sale lemme know so I can buy the shit out of them
