Same. This version fits my recent breakup to a T. More Johnny Cash Vibes and message if that makes sense. 3:03 Delivery of words gives them a different meaning
When I first found him, it was his “I’ll follow you into the dark cover” and every time I’d search it, I’d search the song title followed by “grandpa version” 🤣
Frank, I didn't think I'd tear up from hearing this song again, your rendition proved me wrong and I thank you for that, much love from Alaska and please, keep on keeping on. Your covers are absolutely what I need to hear in these trying times,and again, thank you sir.
This song was written from a very broken hearted perspective… but coming from this old man… makes it sound like the depths of hell can sing the sorrow…
What the actual hell?! I JUST got this in my recommendations. I was not prepared for it... This song was played on my older brothers funeral after a long battle with MS, thank you for this rendition sir ❤️
As a 53 yo man who was introduced to Slipknot by hearing a gf's teen son playing their music almost 10 years ago, this is incredible that a man of your age also knows a great song when they hear it.
I find it so precious how still 3 months on he's liking every comment meaning he's reading every comment.. Generally brings a tear to my eye how humble this man is.. Don't stop what you are doing man it's amazing
@@FrankWatkinson lol you're a real one sir. I've just finished your cover of "I'll follow you into the dark" before this and i i truly felt them both. Looking forward to the rest.
I clicked thinking "oh look, gramps is singing Slipknot" but damn sir, I could feel the emotion in your voice from the first moment. I know the emotional baggage this song carries and I wish you the best. Now if you'll excuse me, RUclips is telling me you have more covers for me to listen to
I feel like Corey's version is what you feel when all the wounds are still fresh. You're hurt but more than that you are mad about it. This version is what happens over time, it heals, the hate eventually stops but there will always be some pain. Beautifully played, made me cry.
That happens because of the Low Key and his Low Voice. Plus, he sings ending the sentences shortly, wich give you the sensation that he is declaiming, like crying ir mourning
Nope some of us came from tiktok at the beginning of the month. He went pretty viral on there. But good to have you all, I hope he just keeps getting bigger
I lost my wife March 2024. While the original Snuff holds this raw anger, Frank’s rendition gives me the perspective of a man who’s been hurt, had the rug pulled out from under him and he’s left wondering “why?” I listen to this and “Coffee to Go” on repeat. Bloody beautiful mate. Thank you for these songs.
@@MrBurns-uh7mm Oh piss off mate, no one came here to hear you bitch about your perception of ubuiquity. Be glad this guy is bridging the generational gap, not just by knowing who Slipknot are, but by covering their music. I listen to both artists on a regular basis and this guy has done a fantastic job.
@JESUS LIFTUS are you stupid? The song itself is meant to inspire a sad feeling. However it's up to the artist to deliver that feeling to the listener, if you don't know how music works don't comment on it.
My Dad shot himself when I was 17, I understand plenty, life also thought of enjoy my first son getting Leukemia. Good way to not get angry, just remember when you start to feel anger towards someone, they won't be around forever and likely leave before you know what happened.
@@luthman2 that's probably why you see it as bad then. There's a lot of soul to it, rather than raw talent. Guitar playing is decent though I must say.
Having lost my step dad and my papaw 2 months apart at the end of 2023 this definitely pulled my heartstrings. It was beautiful!! You did absolutely wonderful Frank!
Corey taylor's one is when the wound is still fresh. This one is when the hurt has healed but when you contemplate the scars...the feeling of nostalgia comes..
This definitely has Johnny Cash "Hurt" vibes. So haunting from the first word and it resonates with you throughout. You can feel the preservation of youth in his words and it also feels like a rebellion to the law that states we will all grow up one day. Stay forever young my friend because I understand your struggle and you definitely put your own stamp on such a dark Slipknot song and you gave it new life. Thank you.
Listened to this for 5 hrs on repeat and then for several days. This man captures the essence of loss in his craft. Even though it's a cover. He made it his own. One I've been harmonizing with in sound and spirit. One day, I hope I never have to come back to this song and feel....everything
There's a strange melancholic quality to the way you've done this. Less anger, and so much more sadness. I've heard this song a hundred times, but I've only ever teared up twice - once when I heard the original live, and today when I heard your version. Thank you. For bringing this to all of us.
This guy's version is so damn good because he made it as if he lost someone when he was younger and it still haunts him to this day. I'm still about to cry just typing this.
“You sold me out to save yourself” is like a punch to the gut the way his voice breaks, beautiful cover, my grandpa is already the cool guitar rocking grandpa, but I’d take him as another grandpa and jam with all 3 of us
That was something I’ve never expected. A cover of a more modern song done in an old school way. What’s sometimes cooler than seeing the young idolize older music, is when you see an older man appreciate something new so much. This was awesome. Thank you
You're absolutely right. I love it when "younger" music is covered in more old-school ways. This cover is a great example, however I feel you can't make this statement without mentioning the NIN -HURT cover by Johnny Cash
That’s a perfect comment for this video!! He’s got tons of emotion in this song! The respect is obvious! I respect the hell outta ANYBODY that can do this kind of cover!
This is the grandfather we all asked for but never had. I love Frank, so honest, pure of wisdom with his covers, speaking quitly, but with a pure heart, singing with pure emotion, playing the guitar like it is his own heart. He is the guy that you could listen on for hours and hours without getting tired. I wish you as much health as possible, sir. I hope that you will be around for many more years.
a song that my passed father loved…a song that reminds me of better times…still hits hard whenever i hear someone sing it…i never knew i needed this, all i gotta say is…thank you ❤
man, this is friggin awesome. the fact that someone of your age (1) enjoys slipknot, (2) plays guitar, (3) cared enough to cover a slipknot song with their own spin, that just makes me smile man

2:55... this is a man who has felt being "sold out to save yourself." The way his voice cracks, he understand how painful it is to be reinterpreted into a bad person by someone who once loved you and you still love. Most people don't look at the elderly in terms of these full, wise beings who have been through all our shit time and time again. We just see some sweet old person. But they've been through ours time and time again, and have simply learned to live with it and not wear their insecurities like badges. Quiet grace, but in moments like this it shines through. I'm not even a slipknot fan, but I do think this is taylor's best lyrical moment. And Frank Watkinson nailed it, immediate subscribe, mi padre
@@FrankWatkinson this is absolutely beautiful! I'm a huge Slipknot fan. Snuff being one of my favorite songs by them... It helped me heal from a very toxic and addictive relationship.

He'll love it. And quite possibly cry as much as I did.
I know I'm over a year late to the party, but I support this so much. I love to see an older person look into Slipknot and find this absolutely heart wrenching song, and on top of it adapt it to their own style. I can still hear the emotion in your vocals, much like Corey's, and I love how the vocals are unique in comparison. Great!
@@GettnHandzie I listen to real music and I don't get pissy like you little snowflakes when people don't like the same shot as me. Its clear you kids need to grow the fuck up.
Not even two chords and I’m crying. Such an honestly written song. How it’s Sung by such a old and honest voice to me brought a new light to this song. I feel like he greatly related to Snuff. It made it all the more heartfelt.
RUclips recommended me this video. I'm in shock. Such a heartbreaking performance. You just made me cry, and I was not ready for that at all. Thank you for the emotion you gave me. You are truly an amazing and talented man ❤ I hug you across the world!

The "hurt effect" all over again, when an older artist takes a newer song and makes a beautiful heartbraking cover...
Exactly my first thought! This is just remarkable!
Except in this case, the original is actually good
@Coldguto nice pfp
@@TheAbandonedAccount7 The original hurt is a masterpiece too you goon.

It feels like a Johnny Cash cover of snuff. Amazingly voiced and has all the feeling of the original
Exactly. I was trying to remember the similar voice & suddenly found your comment 😀✅💌
I thought the same
I really love the original one. but this, it sounds cruel. I have to pull myself together not to fall asleep
Besides being an old guy singing with an acoustic guitar, his voice really does sound like Cash at times.
voice sounds more like pink floyd imo
I feel like Corey's version is what you feel when all the wounds are still fresh. You're hurt but more than that you are mad about it. This version is what happens over time, it heals, the hate eventually stops but there will always be some pain. Beautifully played, made me cry.
Very well put!
I cry every time I hear this song, this version made be ball like a baby.
Well said
I agree with the other comments, well said!
What a perfect analysis and I agree
This is why internet is the invention of the future. An old man with an amazing skill can show of, for the people to appreciate him. Well done sir.
Power to the people :)
It is a great cover.
One of the most brilliant songs written in the past 20 years
This song can't be stronger than when it's sung by someone who experienced a long life
exactly!!!
I agree
Exactly what I thought when I just listened now for the first time.
Good point!
Songs about friendship and relationship betrayal. But I seen your point
My biggest hope is that Corey Taylor gets to see this video. I think he would be proud of your rendition Frank.
He has, heard his wife mention it on a Rock Feed interview.
@@tommyrocker33 wonderful!
And they were very complimentary too by the way..
Somehow, the way he sings this makes it wayyyyy more sad than it already is
I never listened to the song like I do after hearing this cover. Its absolute fantastic cover

That happens because of the Low Key and his Low Voice. Plus, he sings ending the sentences shortly, wich give you the sensation that he is declaiming, like crying ir mourning
Nah
That's a fact !
🥲i listen to this when i need to, when there's nothing else to do but hold onto to something.

im a big slipknot fan. I love the cover. this has to be my favorite song live on acoustic
thankfully their touring and their playing this song live again
@@ukgigs3950 I really want them to come to Aus and im hopeful they will
@@goky2253 i hope they play everywhere which they should
@@goky2253 I'm so glad they came to central NY, I got to see em live and they are so good!
His voice is emotionally powerful. You can feel every word he sings. Amazing cover!!!
January 3, 2025 and just found this! Why am I crying? Thank you, Frank! Does anyone know if Corey saw this? ❤
4th January 2025 and you're comment just started me off 😢
I think we should all link this cover to Corey on his social page, this needs to be heard by him. I know i loved it! Thank you for this awesome cover!
When I listen to this I’m not 16 anymore I’m now 80 years old and wondering where all the years have gone
Aww. That really made me cry. Im 47. Ageing is not a bad thing, the melancholy is beautiful...
I know this is three years old, but this is my first time hearing this cover and it's beautiful. It really captures the emotions behind the lyrics.
Same. I’m wondering how I missed him for so long.
Omg you made a 41 year old man cry! This was beautiful
So I see the RUclips algorithm has decided to send me a gift again. This is golden, mr. Watkinson. Subscribed.
Jesus Christ this is hauntingly beautiful. I could honestly see this in a movie or tv show during a really somber scene
I 100% agree with you here. This is great stuff
Could easily picture this coming up in an episode of sons of anarchy or breaking bad or something
I stopped playing guitar 7 years ago. Now i need restart after watch this video.
When I skip studying, videos like these that appear on my home page make my day better and calm me down.
I'd be honored to have a song of mine played by a guy this age. This represents a lot. Slipknot guys should be proud.
10,000%
The dog in the background is just like "it's melancholy nap time."
It’s true 😊
i don't see the dog haha
@@jritty534 you gotta watch the whole thing ;)
@@soundingtheskies my bad I didn't get there kept getting distracted
that´s not melancholy... that´s hard core depression
I know I'm over a year late to the party, but I support this so much. I love to see an older person look into Slipknot and find this absolutely heart wrenching song, and on top of it adapt it to their own style. I can still hear the emotion in your vocals, much like Corey's, and I love how the vocals are unique in comparison.
Great!
I’m with ya, if only my friends knew I sometimes cry at 3am to music like this haha
You're not the only one. :)
@@mypud4068 don't we all? just has to get it out of the system occasionally
@@mypud4068 your not the only one
I was trying to say that but don't know how to express it because of my english. I agree!!! Thank you!!
O senhor é sensacional! Um grande artista!
Anyone who disliked this has no clue what this man pulled of this is incredible
Trueeee
Exactly slipknot surprised everyone with this song the other only tru softer track is vermilion pt2
Not everyone is going to like the same music as you. Grow up kiddo and learn to except that fact and get over it.
@@chaseviking5096 we get it you listen to trash music
@@GettnHandzie I listen to real music and I don't get pissy like you little snowflakes when people don't like the same shot as me. Its clear you kids need to grow the fuck up.
Jesus Christ, can't see this without crying, this is probably the best version of this song ever heard
Same.. it's the very BEST cover of snuff i managed to find on youtube.. it's so profound and genuine.
Monika Hove cover
Hey. Jesus here. Let it out man ;)
Listen to it at 0.75x speed
This is brilliant, Frank. As someone who loves the original song, this cover is equally moving. Thank you.
You, Sir, have done the best cover of this song i have ever heard. Thank you so much! I hope you are doing well!
This man gave his own color to the song, what a great cover
Agreed. I loved it he gave it almost like a Johnny Cash feel
Can we get Corey Taylor to take notice of this... because holy fuck... its beautiful
I bet he would love it
Tag him on twitter with it. Or instagram
Tweet it to him, I am hopefully enough people will share this Corey will see it
Beautiful in deed
Not even two chords and I’m crying. Such an honestly written song. How it’s Sung by such a old and honest voice to me brought a new light to this song. I feel like he greatly related to Snuff. It made it all the more heartfelt.
RUclips recommended me this video. I'm in shock. Such a heartbreaking performance. You just made me cry, and I was not ready for that at all. Thank you for the emotion you gave me. You are truly an amazing and talented man ❤
I hug you across the world!
