[@jefferybryan8592]

How bout acid bath

[@cheapvodka9942]

my kids to now there mid in 20's so ur probally a great person

[@kornfanja]

I want to meet this man, this god. he truly explains how i feel in every song, covered or not, his discography is like a window into my soul.

[@kelleybyrd7754]

JimmyStyles1973 I got that pleasure. He's very quiet and shy. a doll

[@astrzmbie9968]

@@kelleybyrd7754 me too. Dax is quiet kind gentle man.

[@charleskille491]

Hes a great guy! He gave me some pot to smoke at the Mercury lounge in NYC...i was floating on a cloud

[@casey8378]

@@charleskille491 By far one of the most gracious musicians to his fans..other musicians envy him for his talent and love received I think , but he is a great person and it comes out in his music. By far my favorite singer songwriter ever

[@myramuser734]

Dax is the sweetest kindest musician one could ever meet. His shows are amazing and he always greets his fans with graciousness

[@czeg181]

Dax is amazing... Coolest dude I ever had the pleasure of meeting briefly. I'll never forget it..

[@nierohsplaylist]

Christopher Zegarac he signed my arm lol but that was it, it was rushed and I was that asshole wailing about old songs lol

[@casey8378]

@@nierohsplaylist that time I had an acid bath shirt on and met dax and later thought about the implications

[@nierohsplaylist]

mister meener fuck dude 😂😂😂 that’s awesome, he probably actually appreciated that

[@charleskille491]

Met him 3 times...i met the band, and he signed my arm...i got it tattoed on the next morning...i went with a sharpy in my pocket...so yeah...really a down 2 earth dude who loves his fans...and as we all know, his fans love him!

[@casey8378]

@@nierohsplaylist what I meant was he didn't get any funds from the shirt cause rotten records are.. well..rotten .he did appreciate that I saw him a decade earlier when agents of oblivion came through and we hung out after the show and talked about king crimson and other bands..he even called one of his band members over to talk .ill always remember how nice and down to earth he was. By far the best experience I ever had meeting someone I have so much respect for

[@Josh_Green44]

12 years later, and I'm still in love with this version....amazing

[@amym5121]

This is the most beautiful thing I have ever heard. I can't stop listening to it.

[@astrzmbie9968]

I know the feeling

[@CalliShae17]

I really love Dax..he's amazing at whatever he sings, his voice is so beautiful! (;

[@jedidiahthompson1170]

this is the anthem of horrible sadness.

[@timlee8188]

Every song he does is amazing

[@Altarofdoom]

So tragically somber &beautiful

[@forlornmind]

I have listened to so many covers of this song and this is the best ever, this song is truley medicine to me.

[@thedriverman1217]

The only one that does it any justice.

[@reneecaron3816]

.... love.

[@charleskille491]

Best songwriting ever sung by the best vocalists ever!!!

[@humvAwA]

Thanx for all the great Dax posts, El Padrino.

[@casey8378]

8 years after this comment and El padrino Still has the songs I keep coming back for. Project Riggs is on par too..I don't know either of them but am grateful to both

[@ThePowerman121]

Dax is my generation's Townes Van Zandt

[@tylito4222]

So glad I found this track 🤘🏻

[@orangelobsterman]

this version is a 10.....cohens just happens to be off the chart

[@soulofabeercan]

Awesome Quality thanks. Dax is really an amazing vocalist .

[@forlornmind]

Hail to Dax Riggs amazing like it better than original the vibration of this song is awesome

[@cheapvodka9942]

[@Josh_Green44]

Thank you! One of my favorites....

[@goodcitizen3780]

Dax is perfect.

[@skiesburngrey]

your the greatest human being in the world for posting this!

[@13ouroboros13]

I almost always enjoy Dax's version of songs more than the original artists.

[@20LookInside12]

Chills. And I even Love the original, but this... Damn. So Delicious.

[@lieutenantdan2217]

I can't stop coming back to this song

[@MoolaKookii]

So amazing. Words can't describe!

[@Lateralus8808]

Agreed. One of my favorites is In an Aeroplane Over the Sea by Neutral Milk Hotel.

[@normdickey5069]

Outstanding Cover. First time listening to Dax. I also like the Tori Amos version...

[@hoblinbobkin]

So

[@ohiofrost5894]

since the beginning, thanks

[@lynntrout5164]

Love this man

[@natashabury-wilder4337]

This is so beautiful

[@Disambiguation144]

Perfect

[@mickharneyify]

Great Song

[@channelsurfingonpluto1077]

so damn good

[@astrzmbie9968]

Ahhhhh yer Killin me Dax

[@yopackieslots]

I remember begging Dax to play this live at his show...he said no.

[@gregoreofernandez9500]

Why?

[@NickkiDales-b4u]

Just wanted to send ❤

[@emilykinkade888]

Gorgeous

[@christx4482]

R.I.P. Leonard Cohen

[@kristenschnerr1427]

beautiful!

[@oogle6415]

is it wrong that I love this better than l.cohen's version... he is amazing

[@zachbutler9484]

I love Cohen's music, but Dax's covers are always better. I never miss a show when he comes through. if you ever have an opportunity to see him live.... I recommend not missing it. his music is even more haunting live.

[@joshnuse9219]

I have wanted to see dax for years. I have to see him. Last time he was in Houston it was at this incredibly small venue and I hate myself for missing it

[@levimalcom5335]

saw him in new orleans at Hal n Mal's...one of the best shows ive ever seen.!.

[@cheapvodka9942]

nope all good

[@lesleycurry7966]

💚💚💚

[@cheapvodka9942]

i meet an walked talked an smoked once with Dax they were playing in no on the lake some sak player''s place was bad ass he was so nice an open to meeting an talkin to us it was amazing so there oh an we were getting band prices on our drinks cause me an the people i was with looked like a metal band sept we all thick an mean he was amazing

[@Lukeor]

This is in my top 3 of cover songs he does.

[@mistygoodwill]

I don't know how he gets thru it without voice breakin bawling...being a man probably helps.i get to second verse and I lose it .imagine writing to the person that fxcked your lover and saying thank you for taking their pain away.such a deep, bold, inhuman thing to do .only Leonard Cohen and perhaps Dax reached such levels

[@lamarridley7711]

Cohen would be proud.. so beautiful.

[@lunarether]

f-ing love-it

[@dragonsoflore19]

i never knew the name of this song, ive gone thru deadboy & daisyhead lookin for this song

[@aprilrosik]

ооохххх как хорошо

[@FreebirthHorrorStories]

Hey, kev

[@thedriverman1217]

Can someone please find me the chords for this version??

[@kmfed93]

What a brilliant vocalist and musician. His voice is like Jeff Buckley but heavier, if that makes sense.

[@ravensnflies8167]

im a man and wish i could have his baby...

[@6leak6onesofficial]

Hello how can I get ahold of this man? Does anyone know.

[@isooblivion5849]

[@casey8378]

Powerfull shit there...

[@Altarofdoom]

[@ddbEntertainment]

How does he do that?

[@kelleybyrd7754]

DDB Entertainment he truly must have sold his soul

[@musiclover9399]

kelley byrd he's probably just naturally talented but if he did sell his soul it wouldn't surprise me

[@Lostinthesauce0]

Jimmy Flemion?

[@MrJeremykilgore]

i do

[@SulfuricAcid23]

Does anybody have the chords to this?

[@biggmoneyme]

SulfuricAcid23 this is the simpliest gutairin ever

[@adelelotus1903]

+SulfuricAcid23 tabs.ultimate-guitar.com/j/jonathan_coulton/famous_blue_raincoat_crd.htm here. its pretty easy. but the strumming pattern is kinda tricky for me

[@SulfuricAcid23]

Thanks a bunch. I originally made some adjustments to Leonard Cohen’s original version but this seems to be just it.

[@frankgrimm387]

My half step down still seems a slight bit off.

[@frankgrimm387]

regardless... assuming half step down it seems to me A F D E, A B, A B, A G, A G, A... C.... G... A... as far as I've gotten atm.

[@colinerikstanhouse6385]

Again, Dax takes a cover song and makes it his own . It sounds asbif he wrote it himself !

[@mistygoodwill]

Dax marry me?
