Great job young man, I'm 64 and been playing that song with a band or two and you put me to shame. After watching you I've really got to up my game. Well done my friend.😁👍👍
This is flat out amazing. Definitely the best MB20 cover I've ever seen. Especially when the guitar takes a rest at the end. Absolutely spectacular. I do wish you would have done the part where chords in the chorus in the final "reach down your hand" part change from Em, C, G D to Em, D, C, and then it hangs on C as Rob Thomas screams "it's been a long day." There's something about replacing those chords on that walk up, combined with that final screaming Rob Thomas does, that is immensely powerful. Of course, your cover didn't need it, because, as I said it's amazing.
I never sub for cover songs but damn you got a sub out of me. Captured the energy of the song perfect, had me wanting to hammer on the drums along with your playing and singing
Thank you! Finally someone pulled- off this song. And to be honest, at some parts I actually prefer how you done it your way versus trying to copy-cat, exactly mimic Rob Thomas. You did bring a lot of resemblance to the original, but yet still made it more your own than a clone. Sounded awesome on my phone. Had to comment and then I'm going to listen again. And also thanks for showing me how to play this song. That's actually what I was doing. Seeing the capo position and chords so I could try to work out a cover myself. So you helped me out with that and let me hear the first cover of this song that I would take time to listen to all the way through and also be inspired by. Great job man. If you have more songs I will check them out when I get time.
Listened to them all. In multiple countries and in languages I don't even understand. This is the truest to original form cover that exists on the net that I know of. 10/10 AFA covers IMO.

Fucking killer cover brother ❤
Thank you sir
Do you have a tab made for the way you played this?
Unfortunately no. But I got the chord sheets off of ultimate guitar and just kind of freeformed it off of those chord sheets
