The Cure - Boys Don’t Cry (cover)

One of my favourite songs by The Cure and one I’ve been asked to play a lot. Can you believe this song was from the 70s? So ahead of it’s time.
From Wikipedia:
“"Boys Don't Cry" is a song by English rock band the Cure. It was released in the UK as a stand-alone single in June 1979, and was included as the title track on Boys Don't Cry, the American equivalent to Three Imaginary Boys.”
Lyrics:
I would say I'm sorry
If I thought that it would change your mind
But I know that this time
I have said too much
Been too unkind
I tried to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I tried to laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
'Cause boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
I would break down at your feet
And beg forgiveness, plead with you
But I know that it's too late
And now there's nothing I can do
So I try to laugh about it
Cover it all up with lies
I try to laugh about it
Hiding the tears in my eyes
'Cause boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
I would tell you that I loved you
If I thought that you would stay
But I know that it's no use
And you've already gone away
Misjudged your limits
Pushed you too far
Took you for granted
Thought that you needed me more, more, more
Now I would do most anything
To get you back by my side
But I just keep on laughing
Hiding the tears in my eyes
'Cause boys don't cry
Boys don't cry
Boys don't cry

the man has blessed us with another cover

[@sebeast1]

Dude its never too late to try to pursue your own music career, you are genuinely the most talented guitarist i’ve ever seen that isn’t famous. Genuinely incredible

[@LVXXXVI]

Everything you upload is gold dude, thank you for another great cover

[@Adam_Barrett]

Thank you mate 😎

[@moono5027]

I was like " wow his playing is so good" BUT THEN THE VOICE OMGGGGG

[@tubetubetube9999]

Do whatever you want with your life and career pal BUT know this; your talent is genuinely next level breathtaking. It’s not just empty platitudes people make as the comments on your KZbin videos ...The phrase “it would be a shame not to share your talent with the world” is apt. Go get em, the world’s your oyster if you wanted this as a career. So much admiration.

[@luke_cpb73]

I love the cure so much! ❤️

I was listening to your Beatles covers when this popped up. My band covers this and a lot of other Cure songs. The Cure is such a great band.

The vocal nuance that you convey in your covers shows the world that your ear is as wicked as your pipes.

[@carlospena4522]

Thank you for another cover of The Cure

[@thibautsaffroy9634]

Man you gotta keep posting more music. I think you don't realize how much talent you've got. You need to share that with the world !

[@mrjonnyburkecovers]

Great job. I was trying to work out what Mysterious microphone you were singing into. I realise it's a roof beam now 🤭

[@Adam_Barrett]

😂😂😂 that’s brilliant! I was singing into a blue yeti mic which is just off camera. It’s so powerful that I can pick up stuff from miles away. I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it as there’s way better out there but it’s cheap which is why I initially got it 😎

[@matt.pma.kresnaputra5458]

The only covers ive ever watched since ever
