His vocal cords is seasoned with some Louisiana Rub 🙌🏾❤️❤️
I have been trying to find the right words and then I read your..
🤔👍
Yesss, 🙌🙌🙌
Thank you cause i couldn't find the right words to say
It's a seasoning I wish I could sprinkle on myself...hehe!!
This is the cutest, truest, most creative description of this man's sound. ‼️🔥
I've been listening to that song for 30 years and you squeezed the juice right out of it. Nicely done, sir..
well said!
@@chriscatton705 Teddy: Take it easy. Regroup--and DO NOT drop the ball.
and lovin' the flavor as never before...
FANTASTIC juice description!
So well said!
Why, just why isnt this man no.1 across the globe.
Ian Webb He’s on the way... 😆👋
@@Inspirationandmanifestation I certainly hope so
He will be.. spread the word!
Let's all wait for it...popcorn, anyone?🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Because sadly a certain element of society do not appreciate good music and great singers.
NO ONE. NO ONE. CAN TOOUGCH THE BILLWITHERS COVER OF THIS SONG. THEN, THERE IS TEDDY......HE'S JUST OTHERWORDLY.
let's be serious.
it's good.
but no BW.
I love TS
Trevor Exter - Use Me Up - Bill Withers cover on cello!!
We need a "killing it" button here on CZcams.
I, ARGREE!!!!!
Agreed
I agree a" killing it" button
Yes!
Yes We Do...lol
As badass as Teddy is ...... His band brings the HEAT.
YES!
Fyi, on this particular cut that music is the original version, not from TS's band.
Yes!!! Excellent band!! Tight, love the drums at the end of "The Door"live.
Love all Bill Withers songs. Thank you for supporting the Late great man by doing your version Teddy ❤❤
This man is an INCREDIBLE vocalist with the emphasis on Vocal because his variety of vocal effects makes his versions of every cover he sings the best I know of.
YES 🙌👍🙌👍🙌
So well said 😊
I agree!
I don’t understand how Teddy Swims is so underrated. 😭 I’ve introduced so many of my friends to him. I love how he pours his heart and soul into his music!
I can't understand either. It's crazy & FACT'S. 🎉
Because he's a true vocalist and they don't like working with artist that don't need all the extra cost that they make their money from.
Right there with you on that!😊
Just went to his concert in Rocklin...man is not only fabulous but he signed things for the audience continuously and continued singing perfectly while he did
I’d love to hear “ain’t no sunshine” Your Heart & soul is shining through ♥️
Yes pls
he would knock it out of the park.
Yesss!!
Yessssss pleeeez!!!🙏🙏🙏
Shawn James does an amazing cover of it. Check it out
i played your music in the operating room all day at work and everybody loved you. your voice is like BUTTER.
I wouldn't be able to work for dancing across the operating room!!
I play it in the ambulance🙂
I worked in OR for years. Wish we had this back then. Anesthesiologists would control music. some days good, some days not so much! haha
Also play in the ED❤
Love this 30 years in op dept,😊 wish Teddy had been around.❤
FINALLY!!! I’ve requested this SOOOOOOOO many times and he KILLED it. I knew he would which is why I’ve asked so many freaking times lol
Yeah he did! Dang you were right!
@@TeddySwims
Ok my friend..we need to hear rainy night in Georgia and teddy pendergrass love TKO...do it for Tulsa....💕💕💕💕
Teddy , you gotta sing some Bobby Womack. The Poet was one of the best and I think you would do him justice.
@@maryjanedoe3921 Yes!! Love To would be great. I keep asking him to sing some Bobby Womack. We'll see.
@@maryjanedoe3921 Totally!!
Bill Withers is smiling from heaven. Teddy Swims definitely got Soul and R&B in his heart and he is is one of a kind singer and artist. I soulfully wish you all the best of success. Love & Peace, Michael
As a huge fan of the original song, and Bill Withers, this is very impressive. 👏
I know, right? Love this.
I just discovered you and I’m blown away! Your voice reminds me of the singers from Stax records and Motown- that was MY jam growing up so you are blowing my mind ❤️❤️ I’m old (66) but listening to you sing takes me back 50 years and I’m 16 years old again! Thanks for sharing your music!
I agree! I'm 67!!
I agree. I am 68. 🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾🙌🏾💕💕💕💕❤️❤️❤️
This man is a gift to me and I'm sure to a lot of others. He has a voice that comforts, excites and makes you just want to melt into his songs. Bill Withers would be proud of you Teddy!
100% agree with you! He has been my life saver
Most artist that are not main stream never get discovered. I strictly stick to underground music because it is so much better
Is there anything Teddy Swims can't sing and make it better? Just WOW! That voice
He’s invited to ALL cookouts bruh 💯💯‼️😂
True!😊😊😁😁🎶🎵
hell let me know and ill be there too! good job teddy this shit is 🔥🔥🔥
@@TeddySwims My house NOW!!!!!! Daytona beach Florida! We ain't doing a cook out but ima scrape something together!
Lol Yes!!!

Heck…lol Is there any thing this young man can’t do ! Can’t enough . A Canadian 63 yr young lady. So glad and so lucky found your wonderful beautiful voice. Tyvm.😀
I really think this guy is underrated 💕
Wishing for his further success ✨
And for everyone's safety during this time 🙏
Robyn Cheng ....
FRICKIN LOVE his SOULFUL voice !!
Underrated. Try one of the best new voices in the world. I just hope he gets the some amazing song writers around him. A voice like this deserves the best songs in the world

Man you can smooth out a triangle into a circle. Love your voice!!!
RIP to a legend
@@TeddySwims Listening to Bill Withers' music is like comfort food on a Sunday afternoon. I love that mans' music and I do already mis-him. R.I.P. Sir William
who dead
“Bernard Crowley William Harrison Withers Jr. (July 4, 1938 - March 30, 2020)”
My friends feel it's their appointed duty
They keep trying to tell me
All you want to do is use me
But my answer to all that use me stuff
Aye aye aye I wanna spread the news
That if it feels this good getting used
You just keep on using me...
Until you use me up
My brother set him right down and he talked to me
He told me, yeah,
That I ought to not let you just walk on me
And I'm sure he meant well
But when our talk was through
I I I said brother, if you only knew
You would wish that you were in my shoes
You just keep on using me...
Until you use me up
Well sometimes it's true you really do abuse me
Girl, you get me in a crowd of high class people
And then you act real rude to me
Girl now baby baby baby
When you love me I can't get enough
Oh I wanna spread the news
That if it feels this good getting used
You just keep on using me...
Until you use me up
Bill Withers didn't release records for a long span of years, but what he created in his time was some of the most powerful and important stuff in the history of recorded music. He had a gift, and he shared that with the world. His songs have been covered by so many artists, but few covers manage to convey the very soul of those songs. You, my friend, have a soulfulness that can drive these words home. You bring so much positive energy to this world, and I thank you sincerely for it. I say this as a lover of music; and as someone who unwaveringly keeps hope in my heart. No matter how many times this world tries to crush that hope. Stay strong, and please keep sharing your gift.
I wanna hear summer breeze. Teddy is just awesome.
HE WAS SOOOOOOOOOOO WONDERFUL I MISS HIS VOICE AND MUSIC.
CANON, COVERS AIN'T NO SUNSHIE . OMG!
Nicely and aptly put
Beautifully said! 💜
Nailed It!!! HAMMER DOWN! Bill would be proud of your rendition!!! 👍🏻☮️❤️🤘🏻☮️ Until you use me up. Damn, love that song. Ohhhh...The Memories....
I'm a sevire critic when anyone tries to do this song, but other than Bill Withers, this is the best out there!!!
I feel you there i have to say the same. But i like it
Please do “This is a man’s world” by James Brown . That would be amazing .
I second that 👍
Ohhh....that would be a good one!
Yes!
Chris Stapleton has you should watch it
That would be perfect 👌
Needs to do some Joe Cocker
Just thinking same thing. It's the hands
That would be fn. Awesome 😮
Oh HELL YEA!
And facial expressions .
Fuck yea!
Thanks for bringing back the Motown classics Teddy. Great song
Teddy killed this 🔥🔥🔥🔥 man got soul frfr
You need to go the TERRELL show now!! Gotta go on that blue wall💙❤️💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾who else agree with me?
He get's the Golden Buzzer..The beat & the singing all good..Very nice..
This man's voice is smoother than the cream cheese I spread on my bagel. This man's voice is smoother than the ice rink after a zamboni run. This man has got a soul that does more than just justice to this song. I am wishing you future success and always great health brotha. Keep growing that voice is so under rated but I put you on the radio and drive down the street cranking your covers, People around here need to hear what TALENT sounds like.
I totally agree!!!
ABSOLUTELY!!!
funny im eating a bagel with cream cheese now lol
He has quite a voice with a lot of soul, low notes and high notes .
Best cover of Use me... I believe Bill Withers would approve...Bill's original version still has a special soul vibe that makes it so unique and hard to cover...Teddy great job mate.... RIP Bill....
Makes me want to get up in the morning and start dancing! PHENOMENAL ❣️❣️
A true artist. Love his voice and watching him is the icing on the cake! Awesome.
Bill Withers would surely approve this!
Chile his runs!!!! EVERYTHANG!!!!!! 💕💕
Raw Heartfelt Talent ❤️🧸🧸😎🎤⭐🎶🐾💋
What a breath of wholesome fresh air! Absolutely love this man's voice and how he interprets songs.
Bill is looking down on you my brother with a big smile hearing your awesome version of this.
WOW!!! Teddy you have it man... This rendition of Bill Withers' "Use Me" was phenomenal--Blew me away!!! Just Awesome!!!
This brother has his soul coming out in this song.❤
Unbelievable, the vocal and genre range is astounding, and never failed... absolutely 💯 in love.
Posty baby, I'm sorry, I still love you, and no one will ever take your place, but you've definitely got some competition.
Go Teddy Go !
One of the best voices around
One of my absolute favorite songs. This guy is awesome! He nails every song he sings.
If I’m ever ask which artist I have downloaded the most and with a moments notice it’s without a doubt is Teddy Swims!!!! No hesitation!
He’s absolutely incredible!!
LOVE YOU TEDDY!!
One of the funkiest, dopest grooves ever in music and you just straight killed it Teddy Swims. Wouldn't have expected anything less. Check out a cat from back in the day called Terence Trent D'Arby you kind of remind me of him some in this one and you might just find a song or two from him you'll like and can tear up like this one.
TTD
Been following Teddy Swims since the beginning of this dream. Seems as if you are on the way up brother! Well deserved sir!!!! Bill Withers would be proud on this one! Lov ya for reals....keep it comin'!! Don't let the man change you!!!
I just found out about THIS AMAZING VOICE 2 months ago and his voice has me HOOKED! Thank you Teddy for sharing the sound of your voice with all of us. Wishing you endless success!!!
My favorite Bill Withers song! Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
can we get an Allen Stone & Teddy collab already?? the world NEEDS it!
Shooooot that would be DOPE
That would be soooooooo dope
Yasssss!!💯
Yesssssss
Yes, I’d love to hear them together.
This is the best version of this song ever! Better than the original!
Who else would love to hear him cover "Lie to Me" by Johnny Lang??? Amazing.
Tatum Darnell yes. That would be amazing.
Yesssss
Yes
Absolutely YES
YES !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Keep doing what you're doing!
Your vocal range is Phenomenal!! Watching and listening to that amount of soul you feel and sing with is such a treat. Thanks for sharing your precious gifts!! Much Aloha and appreciation from Hawaii!🌈🤙🌺
So obsessed with you. Coming home, lighting up and listening to your soulful voice, makes life worth living. Thank you for sharing your art with us.
Love Bill Withers and teddy's cover has made me speechless.
YAAAAAASSSSSSSS!!! OMG, Teddy!! Bill Withers would be honored, I'm sure of it.🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
His voice is perfect for the interpretation
Bet I'm not the only person who has a Teddy Time playlist. More, please!
Your special because you move people and make them feel not every artist can do that! Honestly I don't think I've heard an artist move me the way you do since Robert Plant. Your amazing!
I think Bill is smiling-I know I am! You did this proud.
i adore bill so much even in his 80s he was just adorable his interview with Aloe Blacc an his sitting next to stevie wonder as stevie sung aint no sunshine when shes gone an John Legend there too its all here on you tube
Literally my anthem I hear in my head when I walk in a room! ❤
I absolutely LOVE all of the songs Teddy has done but this one...touches me like no other! On repeat!!! ❤️❤️❤️
I’m just blown away by this guy! Just cNt get enough! Thank you whoever put it on my feed.
Teddy is a singer/savant to be sure...He is a walking song archive who sings effortlessly.
Love, love, love this song. Bill Withers was a hell of a singer.
Thanks Teddy, eventhough I have heard some of the covers you sing, I may have NEVER listened to the words, but knowing the gift God has blessed you with it MAKES me listen and appreciate the songs even more. #reintroducedTeddySwim
Teddy can sing just about anything and make it his Own song. He's simply Authentic, playful, soulful amazing vocals and very easy on the eyes....hypnotizing.. .he makes you feel each song with his own special blend of personality.... He can do a remix of an old song and make it sound like it was written especially just for him, l don't think he wants to push any other "original" artist out of their version of the song, he just wants to share his amazing talents with the world and let us appreciate his wide spread talents, also he shares his "glory" with his friends and mutual musicians performing with him. I've listened to him from for years, watched every video I can find, watched him grow into the great man he has shown the world he can be. I hope he keeps himself grounded and always shows us videos that are not "Commercialized" yet for his demanding audience, yes the "C" video's help sell his music to a larger level, which he deserves. I will always love the RAW talent this man has. Teddy is going to make it BIG!!!
my favorite part of the song is actually his bass fishing shirt.... nah just playing! Killin it-
This man can sing any song and makes it sound soulful.❤❤
When you were discussing which BW song you were going to cover, I really hoped it would be this one. Well done sir. Amazing.
He would sound good doing otis redding sitting on the dock of the bay.Any old school song,R&B soul is what his voice was made for.He's super talented!
Alright Teddy!! Got me boppin at work. You can never go wrong with Bill
A worthy cover for sure.
Most people probably don't realize that this vocal has been highly produced & mastered, you're not hearing a live vocal here.
Bill made this sound good with nothing but a hot mic & his soul.
I don't know where you came from, young man. Or how you got where you're at. But man, you have brought everything and put it into that song. Exceptional!
He is a Georgia boy who is an angel 😇 with an amazing voice and talent 💜 ❤ he is so loved
Well all I can say is Bill would be so proud 👏
Really happy I found this guy. How is he not huge???
Great rendition man, don't ever stop singing ! I would love to hear you sing " Purple Rain "
Letssss Geauxxx…. Teddy…..it’s the soulful heart of yours…..
💃🏽 🕺🏽……. You’re going places with this voice…. To the moon & the sky is the limit!!
Keep goinggggg Tedddy Popssss!
❤️💕❤️🔥
I don't accept many singers to do this kind of thing but Teddy, Woahh, well done you give it *that* much more power...perfect!🙏
We are so thankful you accept this Karen. 🙄
@@StringSlingerSix We are so blessed to have her acceptance!
@@StringSlingerSix ye because that's obv. how i meant this, copius egg
@@bigpappahemi4263 85 peeps agree, only you both dont seem to understand that this was a statement made totally without arrogance or ego, and all said with Love.
What a amazing tribute to an American legend thank you for this . I needed this bad.
You just kill everything you sing. So right all the time Teddy. Keep going.💋
My favorite Bill Withers song. I still remember the first time I heard it. I was 10. Teddy, you killed it!
I can’t help but move my body. I love this man and his voice. His voice is magic!!!!!
Man this dude is the truth!!! I am just hearing about this man so much soul!
20 minutes, over 4 k views, and I'm over like... daaamn, he really do got the voice of an angel.
Joe cocker was the ❤😅,..NO BODY will ever come that close...let a long in his shadow,miss his music?!!!!
I cant get enough. I don’t promote drug useage but his voice...its a drug - im addicted
Michele Milatz 😆👋👏👌👍
lmao smh
Wait till you try cocaine
Love that soulful voice. Love you Teddy.
About 3 years ago I was introduced to Chris Stapleton for the first time and I had that reaction of "WTH?" Since then I have not seen anyone with the ability to sing literally anything. But then I found this dude!!! I think either Teddy or Chris could sound good singing the dictionary straight through! Crazy talent, and even better souls!
@Teddy Swims I pray you get out there in the mainstream and make that cheddar, baby! I love you, I love your voice, you seem so genuine and wonderful! God bless, my brother!
Agreed!
he does chris tennesee whiskey
Ok, you just knocked my boots off my feet, badass, savage blew this song up. Amazing 💯💯❤❤🤘🤘🤘🤘
Hello there Edy nice meeting you here
My ears are about to be blessed
