Pigs (Three Different Ones) by Pink Floyd (acoustic cover)

[@codymcgrew94]

I actually wasn't stressed at all. I was just concentrated. I wouldn't have put out a video of me messing up a couple times had a thought I wasn't relaxed enough to play. It's all goooodddd Edit: Update on this as of 2022, when I uploaded this back in 2016, I forgot to remove the mess ups in the beginning. Since I didn’t have enough Followers, KZbin wouldn’t allow me to reupload the video without the mistakes while also keeping the likes and views. The video caught on quickly, so I didn’t want to upload from scratch and lose any traction it was getting. Oh well, you live and you learn.

[@MiguelCruz-uv3ui]

Cody McGrew. OK,I play the beggin as the bass part first. the highs is left for the keyboard. Same thing but try it on the 5th string 7fret sounds fuller.

[@РоманБондар-ч7э]

all is ok,dude))cool))

[@learnphoto]

At first I thought maybe you need more practice... then when I saw how good you really are, I was like, "ok, he was just messing with us on the intro." Lol. Great song and great performance! The "mistakes" made it even better for my experience. Thank You!

[@codymcgrew94]

@@learnphoto I meant to take the mistakes out by trimming the video and just forgot lol Desperately wish I had now 😂

[@learnphoto]

@@codymcgrew94 I honestly didn't mean to imply anything other than you did a Very impressive job on this cover. The beginning is just very authentic and made me realize that I need to be more careful with my first impression on anything. Your guitar and vocals are awesome!

[@jayallen9198]

No joke, this is the best version of this I’ve heard. By far.

[@codymcgrew94]

Hey thanks a lot! 👍 😊

[@ExMachina70]

I love the honest moments in this video.Great job.

[@dianaivey5649]

Bravo, all accoustic!!! Excellent version, l'm impressed.

[@chriskincaid4723]

Realising that I can sing and play this....Blown away. Nice.

[@BrickBlacktoe]

when you think about how many studio effects Floyd took into the studio, especially for the Animals album, and here you get this awesome sound and your vocals are what really stunned me here. Blown away.

[@codymcgrew94]

BrickBlacktoe I think you just earned yourself a Pinned comment sir! Lol 😃 thank you very much! I will admit, I used a little compression and reverb, but not much at all. Thank you for your kind words! 🙏

[@toddworthington6349]

he is reading them! fuck i know all the words to all floyd songs. he is reading them and still fucks them up!

[@codymcgrew94]

todd worthington I’d really only known the song for about a week at this point. I messed up the timing and ended up extending the part I messed up. Plus, it’s not easy basically learning the song lyrics and their cadence as you are playing.

[@cindallas6133]

So awesome! I have watched this so many timea... Just Greatness!

[@codymcgrew94]

Hey man, thank you very much!

[@lasseharbitz9506]

Wow!! This is the most beautiful cover of pigs. Absolutely amazing. Thanks for sharing!

[@codymcgrew94]

Hey, thanks a lot! 😊

[@PeteCswampy]

gonna have to leave 2 comments as i was half way thru on first comment, it's superb pure fan tribute, honest and with the feeling, a purity of a fan, super!!!

[@steven_scattergood]

Well it’s 2024 and I just found this. One of my favourite Floyd songs ever from the best Floyd album. This songs brings back fond memories. This is an incredibly phenomenal version and I think more people should see this. This older Aussie loves this. Awesome!☮️👌🖖

[@Whomeverwhenever]

This is the best version of this song, awesome man your voice sounds really good 👍👍😊❤

[@kevinbishop7512]

I lost it at 1:21 with that big voice. Great talent, vocal, arrangement - you owned this my friend

[@codymcgrew94]

Thank you! Much appreciated 🙏🏻

[@pollomechamecha1166]

Don't exist sufficient adjectives of magnific for describe this

[@Desmadre15]

You need to do a 2021 version of this your timing and vocals are on point man

[@kamilszustkowski1819]

I started to watch and: -first thought "he just messed up first notes why he didn't start recording again?" -second thought "is it over!? why these 7 minutes took a second" I like this song and your cover too

[@user-nu7xx7pc1d]

great job Mr.!

[@jeffnorris6360]

That is fantastic! Before I witnessed this, I never dreamed anyone could pull this one off with just an acoustic. Great vocal as well.

[@codymcgrew94]

Hey man, thanks a lot! I appreciate it!

[@crazydiamonduk]

At 1st I was like, hmm good effort and then WOW!!

[@codymcgrew94]

Thank you! 😊

Thank you 🙏

[@linekiofficial]

I agree

[@redheadedoutfielder]

You have a great voice, spot on!

[@cindallas6133]

Wish I could give this more than 1 thumbs up! Loved it - hope to see lots more!

[@cindallas6133]

I have watched this video so many times - just incredible! Hard to believe this is 7 years ago...how about a new Pigs/Animals update? All the best!

[@cindallas6133]

Lemme know how you got that sound.... So Awesome. I have watched so many times!

[@goffdroid]

You went for it.. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘. Killer tone. Some home recordings are priceless . This is one of them. What we do with all our being in beautiful.

[@codymcgrew94]

Thank you, I really appreciate that 😊

[@goffdroid]

@@codymcgrew94 I play drums and guitar you still play ? What you been working on ?

[@dayvid2515]

For now it's the best acoustic cover of this song that I ever heard. I'm learning how to play Pigs watching your video, Thank you!

[@fluffycheep]

I appreciate how difficult this is to pull off. you do it magnificently.

[@jameslow5536]

way to keep pushing through little bro. Sid would love it! it isn't about being spot on everytime as much as it is about the feeel

[@marco1950-s2b]

Bravo 🤸👍bella interpretazione

[@garethmartyndavies2250]

Amazing my friend, I felt for you. And you had the feel 🙌🇬🇧❤️

[@Mohawk763]

Really enjoyed your version. As a bass player who can't sing, you've really inspired me to work harder and maybe get to where I can sing, while playing. Thankyou.

[@codymcgrew94]

Just keep playing man. I don’t know if I could sing and play bass haha depends on the song I guess! But if Les Claypool and Geddy Lee can do it over their complicated bass parts, I’d think anybody can!

[@kellydelf6053]

Wow. Love your sound.. voice is amazing. Got me playing and singing along. You basically just taught me it . Thank-you .

[@codymcgrew94]

Sure thing 😊 thank you!

[@ron1martens]

[@NicholasBerry-ku9rd]

I love the intensity of this and that you included your early mistakes- as well as your displays of exasperation and frustration at yourself! It adds to the overall feel and the authenticity of the performance, Not smooth but I don't really do smooth and smooth wouldn't have fitted the song anyway. Great, great cover Cody.

F***ing smashed it 👏 was a bit unsure when you stuffed the notes the first couple times in intro but your rhythm was on point and then your singing was excellent. Gonna check if you have any recent uploads now.

[@XiaomiRedmi-es1ot]

The Best cover of Pigs I have ever heard. I kind of felt bad for you because it's a long song and you sang it using an Acoustic guitar. I play guitar too and I know how strings on the Acoustic guitar burn your fingers... Hats off bro. I will download it and listen it to Road trip next week. 👍👍
