Unbelievably good! If they’re ever doing an Elliott biopic i think we have our guy

[@mateuspereira1339]

Dude, you're amazing. And isn't it insane how elliott thinks music? He is a mathematician of chords, patterns, melodies.

[@derkurator9940]

Wow! That’s a song Im desperately trying to figure out for so long and you absolutely nailed it again. Thank you Matt and happy birthday Elliott ;)

[@MattTregortha]

Thanks man! Yeah it was a tricky one to learn

[@TheMiapapia]

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 (stands up) 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏!!!

[@mitjadrab6529]

Always amazed by how many chords can be fit into less than 3 minutes. Incredible cover, impeccable Elliott songcraft.

[@SuperGuilome]

Haven't seen anyone cover elliot that well. You even look like him lol. well done!

[@MattTregortha]

Haha thanks so much!

[@sepxoct]

Fantastic cover! Just learned how to play the song from this. For anyone interested, he's tuned a full step down, but it's basically standard because he puts a capo on the second fret. I'm sure that's the easiest part to figure out, but hopefully it helps somebody.

[@MaryLouLord1]

Beautiful.

[@gertrude574]

gorgeous cover, i dont think anyone could have done it better

[@GDWhiting]

Holy shit

[@benbaines8117]

Brilliant cover! I actually hadn't even heard it before I came across your channel, and it's always nice to find Elliott Smith songs that are new to me.
Your solo stuff's cool too; if you were to be playing Edinburgh at some point I'd be well up for going ;)

[@charlesdartagnan8788]

Amazing as always. Would love to hear you do this more often.

[@twabbles7801]

[@MattTregortha]

Thanks!

[@generalmalaise2930]

ur amazing man

[@louieo.blevinsmusic4197]

I was watching the older videos and was wondering if you kept at it. I’m glad you did and I can rlly tell how much better of a singer you are, not that you weren’t singing well in the the older covers. I can just tell you’ve your pitch is a lot better and your breathing is so much better now. Hope you’re doing well. Got any originals?

[@samuraishampoo7]

Amamazing Amazing Amazing

[@MattTregortha]

Thanks!

[@xxmyharturhandzxx]

such a tough one to do, still can't get it down. well done, man 🎈 xo

[@MattTregortha]

Thanks! Yeah it’s a tricky one to be fair, lots of inversions like many of his songs!

[@pandawandas]

You sound almost exactly like him!

[@AndyR2897]

Great Job, man! Love this one. Every think of covering Silver Chain?

[@MattTregortha]

Thanks! Yeah that’d be cool to do, I’ll definitely keep it in mind :)

[@kevinbarretto876]

Could you please cover "talking to mary "

[@jamesdenoguitar]

How many takes does it usually take for your es covers?

[@MattTregortha]

It can depend on how difficult the song is to play. I can usually get them done in maybe 2 or 3 takes. From memory I think this one took me maybe about 5 attempts cause it was tricky!

[@johndoe9965]

Could I request Pretty (Ugly Before)? :)

[@MattTregortha]

I’ll keep it in mind! :)

[@cian_jacob]

I would pay good money for a tutorial on this song.

[@akkamal6999]

Elliott is that you?

[@juliessessions4995]

You have such soothing voice Matt! This sounds incredibly nice. Keep it up! Would you be interested in performing live on Sessions? Kindly check your spam folders our team sent you an email 🤍

[@thoyo]

Voice and playing are dead on

[@MattTregortha]

Thanks! 👍

[@oldaccount5217]

Should’ve covered Connor Oberst. Would’ve gotten more views.
Jk lmao I really don’t like him. You did a fantastic job. It was so spot on. Good song choice as well. This is one we didn’t hear live
At least I haven’t.
Crazy Fucker was a good song for Hecklers I bet. Elliott got those. 90’s bar idiots. But I’ll never do that to someone with taste who plays respecting tradition. Good on you.

[@MarkyD.Ingram]

The voice is actually uncanny it sounds so similar 😧
