@TheUsed707 Hahahah good find! That swivel thing I do with my left foot is a bad habit from the Hi-Hat when I'm drumming... not sure how I developed it though... And thank you for the complement!

[@JoeBarnardMusic]

@claratennislover Thank you! I've got plenty of time for music this summer, so I'll put it on my list of songs I'd like to cover! Thanks for the suggestion!

[@garyw1971]

Awesome!

[@lhrmeonom]

@JoeBarnardMusic I love classical music, I play the piano and the cello, although I don't have private lesson on the cello because I don't really like the cello... But can you maybe play some classical music? or play Rio Ancho? Like the one Paco De Lucia played?

[@Quickpup]

nice voice

[@thisisalexford97]

just wondering but why did you choose not to mic the guitar with the sterling audio st51?

[@spooky1304]

nice :)

[@disctheory]

@JoeBarnardMusic Yeah this is awesome dude, if you're ever in baltimore and want to jam...

[@JoeBarnardMusic]

@MrJpman2 Thank you very much! Don't forget to share it with your friends to help me share my music with the world!

[@JoeBarnardMusic]

@snf09 Thank you very much for your feedback and support! I'll keep your suggestions in mind for my next cover :)

[@JoeBarnardMusic]

@NitroXInferno Will do! Thank's for the suggestion!

[@JoeBarnardMusic]

@rosesfornever Thank you very much! I appreciate your support!

[@JoeBarnardMusic]

@feewert42 Thank you so much! And yes, my guitar is a Yamaha FX335! Great guitar for the price, although I'd love to invest in a better one in the future...

[@ClumsyFaerie]

you sound a bit like Simon Neil to be honest great compliment

[@lhrmeonom]

@JoeBarnardMusic Do you play any classical guitar?

[@wouldyoukiyom]

It's so coool🥹✨

[@JoeBarnardMusic]

@lhrmeonom I do, or I used to at least. I studied classical guitar for about 3 years and I use a lot of my knowledge from that time, to help me improve my skill in more contemporary music like this :) I would definitely recommend studying it if you have the time.

[@kikigukassite]

what mic stands do you use?

[@augustojorgelozada5498]

MUY BUENO FELICITACIONES ME GUSTARÍA SER TU REPRESENTANTE EN EXPONSOR EN EEUU

[@JoeBarnardMusic]

@lhrmeonom Cool! I might try some classical music soon, and those are some great suggestions! I'll keep them in mind, and you might see some of them soon!

[@MetalMathiasTP]

nice loop bro. Work on some slamming on that guitar :D (drums) :) Chould be awesome

[@JoeBarnardMusic]

@ithunkirock Wow Thank you so much! That means a lot! :)

[@dougerific]

what are the chords your playing on this?

[@echonery]

amazing, but I think it would be more awesome if you increase the tempo

[@JoeBarnardMusic]

@apetitti3 Thank You!

[@HappyEmo007]

Hey mind passing the tabs/chords,.. I really digged your cover :3

[@JoeBarnardMusic]

@tercerrepublicano Thank you!

[@JoeBarnardMusic]

@someonelikeme12345 Wow! Thank you very much :) I like this version that I did a lot... It's very mellow and... well... acoustic :)

[@JoeBarnardMusic]

@billapot089 Thanks!

[@NitroXInferno]

Check out Howie day, [Ghost live preferably] he's awesome does a lot of looping.

[@peterpiperpuppets330]

does all right by me ,

[@mimi15229]

Do you live in the 16th century?

[@teaguen8879]

Hes using a looper pedal (google it) :)

[@MetalMathiasTP]

chords please! :D

[@sethalexis9181]

the simple chords are D Am Em

[@Jrjr452]

Nice cover mate. Could have been epic with come falcetto and guitar percussion! You should give it a burl! I use the exact same loop station! Check out my cover of Imagine Dragons Radioactive and Lorde's Royals on my channel and let me know what you think!

[@guitarado]

nice voice, guitar mediocre... but simply and in simplicity is beauty

[@drakulaw]

That must be fake, at beginning the guitar was playing alone - is the singer a magician or what?

[@guitarofdestiny]

You are an idiot, it's called a looper pedal.

[@Pun1237]

@@guitarofdestiny As you reply to a 5 YEAR OLD COMMENT

[@MrCastro8787]

LOL! Yup must be fake :D

[@talodhyakso]

good, just poor mixing and mastering. keep it up!

[@vastymather9078]

Why is everyone being so nice? I am not a mean person but lets be honest with this guy. Not that great of a cover. It's ok but be honst ith the guy otherwise he'll grow up thinking he's way better than he is and be let down. Practice my friend and you will get better. Keep doing your thing

[@dgenbraking]

Vasty Mather keep in mind it seems he has a tiny setup, I've been getting into this the past few days only but everyone else seems to have huge multi-pedal setups, and if we are judging by just music, this song is one that id listen to again. that alone is great.

[@GediSpock]

Vasty Mather: this is practice. And experience. It will be a sign of how far he's advanced later on. Sometimes people just need words of encouragement so they know that they are on the right track. Which this lad clearly is. That was very cool. Sometimes people manage to say things that stop people playing. So I'd try and encourage people like him to keep the enthusiasm so he can progress and get better. Because one day. It may all slot together for him and his songs could touch a million people. I thought that was a great effort. He knows where he can improve. But I really liked it. There are no shortcuts anywhere in music. So any time spent playing. All adds up. That song had a nice mellow energy about it. That is something you can't learn. You have to be it.

[@ghosstt]

Because he is good. Kept the scale low to suit himself and didn't miss many places. Great!

[@davidtaylorpe]

Well done.
