My dad had a beard just like yours. He passed away three years ago at 94. He fought in WWII. Love your music!!! ❤

[@carolinagirl220]

Never get rid of your beard! Watching again tonight, I'm 60 years old and u have inspired me! Rock On and on and on! Peace to you! ✌

I'm speechless!! Oh my goodness, you blew this one out of the water! Great job!!👍.

Tom Petty would be proud 😊 do you even know how good you are ?

He does ... now 😊🤗🤗💗

No he doesn't know how good he is, but I'm sure he knows how good his digital processing gear is. He would sound like shit without Auto-Tune.

@@willdwyer6782 You can't be serious 😂 Auto tune isn't used in his covers 😂

[@Zack_1327]

@@JesusIsAboveAllOtherNames actually later on in certain videos he says he uses auto tune to correct pitch. He uses it, he just never used it before to be dumb. Thank God

Peeps have said you should have a record contract etc, but I and many others are just glad you are giving us so much pleasure on utube

[@michaelbennett9434]

Who are you? My goodness bro you have talent running out of your ears! Well done

[@mszuzubookitty4646]

Haha , I asked the same thing on another video. How come he's been hidden from us all of this time? And I would LOVE to know more about his musical background. Had to learn it somewhere.

[@ee4231]

@@mszuzubookitty4646 He's probably got a great background in music production, these videos are very heavily digitally doctored up.

I have heard you talk about how you have been here for awhile. I guess others that love music fell in love too. You came across my youtube feed. You were recommended to me. That is how I found you. There is nothing like loving music your whole life. And singing and acting it out like no one is watching. I will be 54 this year and I dance and sing in the kitchen. I got a second chance at life a year ago March 2018. I had a right cerebellar stroke while sleeping. I survived with very little complications. Music has and always will be my therapy. Whether it is dancing, singing or just hearing it. Since the stroke, singing is amazing therapy. It helps me pick up words correctly. The stroke caused me to talk slower to make sure all words are pronounced correctly. But I can sing without skipping a beat. It has been amazing watching your channel grow just since I have been subscribed. And I am new. Keep up the amazing work. Because you will be discovered! Love from Texas 💖

[@TruthSurge]

thanks. I hope you improve or at least keep what you have. Health problems suck. I had some in 2014 and a few times I thought I would not make it. Take care!

[@bonniejennings4400]

Thank you! Well we are both still here for a reason. Let's make the best of the time we have left. Love from Texas ❤

[@TruthSurge]

@@bonniejennings4400 Well, I must say I do not believe in that. I believe we are here because we didn't die yet. I do not believe in any cosmic purpose or puppeteering. BUT I do agree that we should try to make the most of what we have and not kill ourselves in the process! Best to you!!! Hope I didn't hurt your feelings.

[@bonniejennings4400]

No, you did not hurt my feelings at all. We all have different beliefs. And I too agree with you! Whatever makes us happy to get through this thing we call life. So let's play some music while we wait to die. Which will happen for us all one day. But in the mean time I am still here. Joy was ripped from me years ago. So there honestly is nothing left for anyone to hurt. Keep making me smile!! Love from Texas ❤

[@TruthSurge]

@@bonniejennings4400 sorry about your sufferings. I've been through a lot of hell in my life. I'm still kicking. Keep rocking and take care of yourself!

[@miguelrosario3129]

WOW, YOU ARE REALLY GOOD. Thank you for sharing your talents with us. The songs you sang took me to a specific time with a specific person, doing a specific thing. Thanks again.

I pretty much will need tooth picks to hold my eyes open at work today since I found you on here. ❤❤❤❤ great stuff!!

[@TruthSurge]

been there, done that. thx. I remember one day I took some Alka-Seltzer night time medicine just after getting to work (I didn't know it was the night time version). man, I was almost unable to stay away. I did telemarketing and I just had my head on the table wondering if I was going to just nod completely out but phone calls came in automatically so that helped keep me barely awake. Green pack, blue pack, I just grabbed one. oops.

no, never really listened to them. I did hear that end of the line tune recently. I'd like to try another Tom Petty song someday. Refugee would be a good one to try.

Awesome job as usual !!! So a couple of months ago I was thinking I would go back to my roots and re-learn some Boston songs, and that's where I discovered your Channel...I've been pretty impressed by all I've seen n heard since !!! You did a Remarkable version of REO Speedwagon/ Keep on Loving You and I was wondering if you could Please do a vocal/guitar cover of Time For Me to Fly ??? (If not both at least the vocals) Thanx n keep up the Great work !!!

[@TruthSurge]

it's okay. You only died 3 days ago. Jesus came back after 3 days, you can too!

[@TruthSurge]

You can do it! Just use the force! Or drink a lot of gatorade or something!

[@TruthSurge]

Hey, you're lookin' good! Just stick with the gatorade. It may take up to a year to regenerate all those rotted bits. Just stay away from maggots till then.

[@kimpalmisano7178]

Judging from the conversation, I'd like to further my request for not only the REO song...might as well throw in a TS version of Judas Priest's Beyond the Realms of Death !!! Seems fitting...lol I think you would do an Amazing job at both vocals and guitars !!! Thanx in advance !!!

That was awesome. Maybe someday you post a video with just the background vocals so bands can learn from your work. That was as good as Tom himself.

[@TruthSurge]

I posted a few vids of just vocals. Not this one tho. It's simple. Just E maj chord to A maj chord (E maj is E, G# and B) (A maj is A, C# and E). that's the E and A then the B chord is just Eb, B and F#. the free faaallin imma free fallin parts are just E AAAAAA E BBBBB. super easy.

[@thepepperlanders]

@@TruthSurge You're an awesome vocalist. I gig in Santa Cruz County doing mostly 60's harmonies, with those pipes of yours I'm pretty sure you're gigging somewhere.

[@TruthSurge]

@@thepepperlanders no, I do voice acting for last 14 years from home. Also, I use pitch shift software to increase my range in the mix process so I sing in lower keys, shift in mixing and it basically makes it SEEM like I'm singing int he orig keys. I only did it to see if I could. I really wanted to sing a Dio tune and no way I could sing it with my low baritone voice. Anyway, that's what I do with most songs. Just pitch them down a little to sing them in my range, then up again in the mix. Some I pitch a lot (Steve Perry) some not as much. ty!

[@thepepperlanders]

@@TruthSurge I don't use anything other than a Shure Beta 87 for my voice. We were the opening act at the Coconut Grove in Santa Cruz last week. Best sound system and acoustics ever. Now I know what heaven is.

[@TruthSurge]

@@thepepperlanders Yeah, it is nice to play in a large place. Notes hang in the air and it is definitely different than studio. I haven't played out anywhere in like... I don't know... maybe 22 years... 24.... not sure.
