Elliott Smith - Somebody That I Used To Know - cover by Mathieu Saïkaly

[@jasminewafa31]

Elliott Smith is an artist that is very difficult to cover. He’s a genius. You’ve done this song justice :)

[@josephkogut7472]

when you introduced the accompanying lead acoustic, my eye popped out of it's own socket, with joy.

[@JK-gm9sv]

Christ! this is insanely good, im trying to learn the guitar, havent figured it yet

[@newtube840]

use the app "simply guitar" it will teach you this song

[@BobTheStickMan5]

@@newtube840 do anything but that. Please, simply guitar is not the way to go about it.

[@blessing3958]

I hope you lend the song

[@alonzocg]

his voice is like a really really soft i love it

[@sannemeems7019]

Duuuude, what a blessing that a talent like you keeps Elliott alive. ❤

[@elsafowl]

J'ai beaucoup aimé, encore une fois! :3

[@eatingsound373]

Flawless guitar playing. Well done! :)

[@MelanieBakerMusic]

This is so wonderful

[@DCorange05]

Dude, this is absolutely perfect! Not an easy song to master the timing of...much respect. Would anyone be able to help on how to fret the chord after the slide-up during the intro riff? It's also used during the verse-- I think it's a variation of F but the way you're fretting it seems easier than any tablature I've seen...I just can't quite make out what you're playing. Thanks!!

[@remirichoux8424]

This was great dude. Love ur work

[@Doey75]

Perfect rendition dude! 🙏🏼

[@PaintedSinatraBlue]

I subscribed the moment you started singing, than I watched more of your videos. My conclusion is that you're great with an awesome music taste :)

[@takehyaku4951]

perfect cover

[@cassiass]

Elliott would be proud man good job

[@AlbertMenarYoutube]

thank you for doing this cover and so well done.

[@christinebonnal5905]

Moi aussi j'adore vrak ta dernière video...C'est cool que tu décides d'en mettre un peu plus souvent cette année Suis toujours fan de toi et de ton timbre de voix! Pour quand un spectacle à toi tout seul?? Chris

[@LuannaMesquita]

muito bom!

[@BenBopALula]

Après la Nouvelle Star je n'avais pas pris le temps de te chercher sur YT, puis je t'avais suivi avec Nicolas Rey sur Inter... le temps passe et pof, je te vois avec PV Nova et tiens, hop, je te cherche et je te trouve ici, et tout me revient : la qualité de tout jeu de guitare, ta voie tendre, entre mélancolie et espièglerie, ta reprise de "Between the bars" époustouflante. Je découvre tes duos avec Pauline (Pi Ja Ma), ton "Dans l'ombre de tes pupilles" délicieusement charmant... un talent discret, mais gros comme ça (voir mon geste). J'espère que tu cartonnes, car c'est mérité !

[@peterwest6601]

the craziest part of this is that elliott smith didn’t have another guitar playing lead, he played it while strumming

[@disorderedpink]

no, there was more than just one guitar, except when he plays live, which sounds a lot different

[@stephaniecoomey2356]

Lol there was two guitars on the recording

[@arielyaari2508]

Beauty!

[@arianabalderrama7051]

I adore Elliot Smith and this cover!! amazing job! :)

[@ephemary]

Bonjour ☺! Tu choisis et interprètes tellement bien toutes tes covers ! !! Il est bon de t'entendre et de t'écouter , merci ♥ J'aurais pu commenter toutes tes vidéos mais c'est sur celle-ci que je me pose parce que... En perdant Elliott Smith , ce monde a perdu une voix et une sensibilité (ce mot , selon moi, c'est son second prénom) hors normes... Cet artiste semble te coller à la peau et tu partages ce "virus exquis" de façon talentueuse. C'est réellement un plaisir à entendre! 😊 Enfin, tes compos personnelles sont également savoureuses , ça promet !!!! Bref... Bravo et Merci ♥

[@jackiemeier1650]

I had tender feelings that you made hard But it's your heart, not mine, that's scarred So when I go home, I'll be happy to go You're just somebody that I used to know You don't need my help anymore It's all now to you, there ain't no before Now that you're big enough to run your own show You're just somebody that I used to know I watched you deal in a dying day And throw a living past away So you can be sure that you're in control You're just somebody that I used to know I know you don't think you did me wrong And I can't stay this mad for long Keepin' a hold of what you just let go You're just somebody that I used to know

[@mikeg1745]

+Andréa Plb Comment faire autrement quand on joue du Elliott smith?

Haha, dans ce cas là on peut dire qu'il rentre vraiment dans le mood de la chanson, bravo !

[@MrDavidJon]

Amazing cover man! Would be awesome if you could help us wandering internet idiots struggling to figuring out the chord phrasing between the two G7s!
