To go alone with your guitar to play THIS song with so much intensity and honesty is one of the most gangster thing i've ever seen. Some Jeff Buckley type shit. Mad mad respect to you man And great cover by the way
I thought it was going to suck, only because every video I’ve seen of a teenager with a guitar in a talent show was just chaos. But this was great and if I were you I would get scared and mess up instantly
A very brave choice of Radiohead song to cover from this young Guy. The complexity of any Radiohead track is challenging but I reckon this deserves an, A+
God at the climax the rasp he has in his voice is incredible, to have the balls to go up and play a song like that to a bunch of highschool kids where most of them probably wouldn't know or like it at the start but to still impress them that much is amazing.
Vocals were fantastic especially towards the end. Really impressive control & grit. Literally the only issue was the wrong chords at the end of each verse. You continue playing Am-E-C-D when it should be Am-E-Asus4-A major which is dissonant with the vocals. Anyone who doesn't know the song probably barely even notices it but if you corrected just that one error it'd be a flawless performance
Bold choice for a talent show. Just imagining myself having the guts to play this in front of peers makes me emotional. This is one of my favorite songs. You did some cool substitutions on the chords. Bravo!
@@frododododo it's a bold choice because it's a slow, haunting song that's probably older than the audience, and it doesn't grab you until about 2 long minutes in (of course, it's spectacular when that finally does happen). It's a very vulnerable song to pick. It would have been safer to pick something more upbeat that gets the audience rocking right away. At my high school's senior talent show, a kid played Voodoo Chile (Slight Return), which starts off with an iconic wah-wah pedal solo and then rams into that incredible verse riff. Not saying that was better, just a safer choice!
genuinely started crying a lil haha awesome to see another teen reckonize this song and put so much passion into it ur so talented and i hope u continue with music.
It’s a shame he changed the verse chord progression and missed out that lovely major resolution at the end of the verses that comes from a suspended chord - that’s one of the things I love most about the song! But he’s got a good voice and a lot of talent & potential.
Dang this was really good. You seem like a competent guitar player, if you learned the chord progression correctly it would take it to the next level. Even with you playing it incorrectly at the same part every time you play the verses, you voice and guitar playing make it really good.
@@Plagolago64 Well if he played a chord that is very dissonant and bad sounding with the melody on purpose, maybe he should re-examine that choice. Really cool that even with that, it was still a really great performance though.
@@danpreston564I disagree with you. It's an unconventional choice, but it works. Radiohead themselves are known for unconventional harmonies. For example, going Asus4-A-Am, as is the case on the album, is uncommon.
Wtf closing my eyes I can imagine this being a clip from a concert Guitar was solid considering you were also singing?!! Great job dude keep working on everythin!
It seems you were playing the wrong chord a lot of the time, which then makes it sound like you're singing out of key because your vocals aren't in tune with the guitar, so don't be afraid to bring a music stand up there with you next time and have the chords written out...
I think I saw a comment that the verse chords are accurate but that he probably intentionally changed the chorus chords to play it easier while singing. 😅
@@jjhayaHe’s missed out the suspended and resolved chord at the end of the verses, which is a shame, and he kept the verse chord progression for the “spineless laugh” build-up, which takes away some of the build-up imo! He’s got a good voice though and a lot of potential

@@MLH_1231I do to but when you get into doing it it’s like everyone else in the room is gone
@@bugsbunnypooso true. just let the music take you away and you’ll do fine
i like how he immediately goes to drop d
Not only is the performance killer but that hair!! So cool haha
this is honestly such a great performance wouldnt be suprised if he blew up
You have done a great service to this community
Gosh I love my generation
woah.
well played
the audience whispering exit music after the first line is goldddd
What an anti-crowd pleaser song to play. Beautifully done, respect 🫡
Can you explain what anti crowd pleaser means?
@@captainredan5339aka not playing a popular song, so most of the crowd would be too casual to be able to feel it
I really wish he got more applause for that
@@robintrongdio9704 oh I think I see what you mean
@@captainredan5339it’s a sad song lmao
Wow. I was skeptical by a teenager with just a guitar trying to cover their one but you killed this.
Agreed, wasn't sure what to expect coming into this, but he has such a beautiful voice :)
Quite quite brilliant sir !! Well done and Thankyou
@@Spidershoes least pretentious raidohead fan
He sings great, but some chords in the most important parts are so wrong it's unbearable to listen
Bro poured his heart and soul into that. That was fuckin awesome
That final part (the vocal climb in volume and pitch) gave me goosebumps, that was beautiful lol, well done
I'd love to hear him perform Nirvana's version of Where Did you sleep last night
Some kids are born to be stars.
You, sir, are born to inherit them.

i miss the drums though :(

And to me it sounds good, don't be a music snob

Fuck yes
You got that right McFly
Where have I heard this before?

I bloody hope he's won that talent show
maybe it's just for me but it's like Kurt Cobain singing radiohead. this is amazing
@@J0NVCL1V0N I didn't know that, thank you for this information
@@J0NVCL1V0N Yo pensé lo mismo cuando escuche esa canción!! "Suena como nirvana" pensé ❤
I know right?
His voice reminds me of kurt
They changed the lyrics to Sulk from just pull the trigger to you'll never change I think I read before
@@deadwinter31You know youre right
God at the climax the rasp he has in his voice is incredible, to have the balls to go up and play a song like that to a bunch of highschool kids where most of them probably wouldn't know or like it at the start but to still impress them that much is amazing.
to play a song like this that needs emotion in your voice and have it not be completely cringe is a difficult task so good fucking job lol
You can tell at the end he's tuning down for 'i might be wrong' ready to go full Radiohead on them
It was actually Everlong by Foo Fighters. And he killed the hell out of that too.
I bet you a girl who played riptide on the ukulele got 1st place
😂😂😂😂😂

Man you got balls doing a cover by yourself. Respect.
The faint "OKAYYYY" before the crowd started cheering 💀💀 great cover!!!

I noticed it.

But its his moment
@@Plagolago64 mine too.
@@ekkoo-gh6bt lmfao
You would've been annoying asf and people would boo you out of the room lmfao
would have been hella annoying to hear ur shit voice over his
His voice is amazing
this is how radiohead wanted to sound at first
genuinely started crying a lil haha awesome to see another teen reckonize this song and put so much passion into it ur so talented and i hope u continue with music.
Major stones to pull this song out for the talent show, but you killed it. It's actually a good song to do up there just by yourself for sure.
Hell of a song to bust out at a talent show, awesome job!
It’s a shame he changed the verse chord progression and missed out that lovely major resolution at the end of the verses that comes from a suspended chord - that’s one of the things I love most about the song! But he’s got a good voice and a lot of talent & potential.
I thought I heard something odd, but since I'm no music expert I couldn't tell what it was. Brilliant performance nonetheless.
honestly i adored it. i think the change added a lot considering the arrangement
He didn't try to do a carbon copy of the original but allowed the song to flow naturally as his version.
Not imitating Thom Yorke but doing it his way
@@jonathanmills5747I think he just played the wrong chords, blud. No biggie
@@jonathanmills5747yes think he played the wrong chords but doesn’t overly matter as he battered it out beautifully
whoever yelled fuck yes already knew!

@@Plagolago64yeah, no. You don’t deliberately change to a chord that clashes that badly with the melody line and not change the melody line.

why is this insanely fucking good
that was terrific young man.
The immediate tune down to drop D, I wonder what he played next
Everlong I reckon.
The beginning sounds a lot like the actual song, especially the vocals, great job man
niiiice! I like how you sing it in your own style, not trying to imitate thom. very nice.
Wtf closing my eyes I can imagine this being a clip from a concert
Guitar was solid considering you were also singing?!! Great job dude keep working on everythin!
5:10 is the worst part fr
if you miss a note or chord with security is not a mistake is an interpretation..... great cover
the perfect cover
Hello brother
I love it when RUclips comments come together to celebrate people trying their damn best. Keep up the great work folks.
This is wonderful
i just know he loves kurt cobain
This was awesome, fav Radiohead song
only going with a guitar and winning the competition is like going alone in a battlefield with only your sword and winning the war, sick.
Very good!
Next up for our school talent show is little timmy playing the riff for smells like teen spirit over and over again!
WOW... just WOW. This is possibly the best cover I've seen in my life
Low-key sounds like kurt kobain ngl
Any high school kid that listens to Radiohead is okay in my book. Great job.
Thank you
this was absolutely brilliant! such a great performance.
That was brave of you to go up on stage and sing and play guitar, well done dude 👍
What did i just hear... fucking masterpiece
i don’t usually fw radiohead covers but this is awesome
me on the school... my respect...
That's you? You have good voice man. Inspiring! Keep doing music 🤘🎸🎵
Hey this is you?
Isso foi oque a gente chegou mais perto de ver o Kurt Cobain cantando Radiohead... ❤ foda!!!!!
Real 😢
Really nice job. Tough to pull that song off without having the build from the rest of the band to help drive it home. Good shit.
His voice is so goooddd dudeee, I was a bit skeptical but Jesus he nailed it.
When i tell you i had chills the entire time anticipating the high note i am not kidding. and i was not disappointed.
Awesome job, Someone get this kid some reverb on his mic and an acoustic for the next performance.
voice and guitar, both ethereal. I'm in love with this cover.
He sings with his heart and soul.
The chords are not the corrects xD but his voice was so good
Let be completely honest
The chords are correct.
no, they're not Lol
still sounds great
@@soundstation8343do amuse me with your progression on the chord sir, its probably because hes using an electric guitar.
Chords totally wrong
Quite a few wrong chords there.
About as many as there were right chords. Nice voice tho.
Listen more closely to the songs you aim to imitate.
I swear just a month ago barely anoyone had seen this great cover. But now there’s like 100k people who have seen it.

Holy shit, this went hard af

Ojala este muchacho haya ganado.💥
CRUSHED IT!!!!! 💯
LETSSSS GOOOOO!!!
this is actually insane .
Dude you really should check out the right chords for this song
i love this
Well sung, but didn't get the chords quite right
hey man i know u probably wont see this, but that was absolutely amazing . best thing ive ever seen well done
My fav song to sing in the shower, amazing, man
That shit (was fucking awesome)
amazing vocals god damn
Please cover more Radiohead and keep up the great work i can tell you love practicing music man
Complete confidence being on stage that’s awesome
que pena que en mi pais lo unico que muestran en los shows de talento son el baile del gusano
WOW the emotion!!!!!! i wish i was in that crowd
I had a goosebumps.
This guy needs band
Oh my chord
holy shit
Not trying to be critical cause it was really good, but the chords were a bit wrong so it never properly resolved.
bro tuned down to everlong at the end
we hope that you won
I thought his hands were running out of gas a few times, but overall he did great. High risk, high reward song.
This is fantastic. I’m a dad, and I think about how proud I’d be of my kid up on a stage killing this performance. Well done.
brave choice, young king!
i keep coming back to this. seeing unreserved young talent is a gift. never stop
Es como un joven kurt Cobain cantando una cancion de radiohead... increible
