I guess this is the highest compliment I can give to people playing someone else's music, but I honestly never fully realized just how great this song is until right now.
It's absolutely perfect....
Exactly, the same feeling here...
I agree, so smooth.
Production is very good, adds to an already stellar performance
Well said
Wow that’s one of the best covers of this song I’ve ever heard
Immaculate playing, but the best version for me remains Ben Harper/Jennifer Nettles, that version can set air on fire...
Carson's bro Skylar does a great cover. No offense I love it better. This is nice, but Skylars version has..oomph.
I don't want to offend either of you b/c you have reawoken (?) music in me. The discovery of your gorgeous art, both solo and collaborative, has immensely helped my soul. You both even got me to finally buy a cute li'l acoustic Yamaha, so thank you for soul medicine and inspiration during this very trying year.😊☺🤗🎉
If you haven't seen Matt Anderson's version, check it. absolutely incredible. my favorite. i absolutely love these two so much, but his definitely has my heart.
Shane that’s what they do
Carson's vocal performance here is sublime.
And then, just like that, everything seems slightly better in the world.
Right?
Made me smile 🎶✌️
Or at least we got to forget for 2:44
So true.
To think this vocal take is live and in one shot. The boys delivered as per usual.
Carson's voice has so improved over the years; the intonation, the timbre, the timing... Wonderful. And stick to the friends jamming in the basement format, it clearly works very well for both of you.
I completely agree, he’s come so far
I was thinking the same thing as I watched this.
oh yes..he is wonderful
You are all correct! And it's always a bit awkward to complement someone like that, because it infers that they weren't that good to start with. BUT, we all know that Carson was already good! He's just jumped to that next level - REALLY GOOD!

You know that was something special, right? The whole sound and vibe are unreal.
You can’t just listen to this one time. Impossible.
Scrolling down while the song wrapped up thinking to myself I'm gonna play that again... then immediately read this comment :)
here I am on my 8th time
Looptube!:)
I hate covers so.... Only clicked into this cause I struggle with covering this myself 🤣 great job done though 👍👌
Don't tell me what I can't do.
Carson's voice is just so damn smooth.
Jewel of a cover...not overproduced.. well played and sung..
Excellent choice of arrangement, chords and singing. Easily the best cover version out there. The future of great music is safe in the hands of young people like you.
Very nice comment, gotta say
Indeedly...
These guys, separate and together, are not just “The Other Favorites”…they’re MY FAVORITES!
And mine
I keep coming back to this version, could listen to it all day long. I love Carson's voice x
Carson, your vocals on this song are amazing.
The high vocal starting at 2:03 is outstanding. Great rendition.
Yeah, that.
And the whole thing.
Outstanding. 👍
He has a great vocal range . He hit some low low notes in Folsom Prison blues . These guys are great !
I love the squeaks of the fingers going up and down the strings. Not sure why, but I always think it adds another layer to acoustic performances. With that said, this is pure gold, guys. This song is hauntingly beautiful. Definitely on a short list of the most perfect songs. You guys absolutely nailed it. Such a great cover.
Interesting. I think that the finger squeak on this recording is excessive and detracting.
Josh is the deal 👌
I love the squeaks too.
Perhaps the best rendition of this song I’ve ever heard!
I was 4 or 5 when this was released, and to this day, whenever it comes on, if my family is around they all start singing 'oh oh oh I'm yo fwiend', as I mistakenly did as a kid. Some things you just never live down... lol
That’s cute. I was a lot older when I first heard this song and always thought (until just now) that Springsteen was singing, “...and cut a six inch valley through the middle of my ‘soul’”. I’ve been singing it wrong for decades!
My little friend hearing Brown Sugar in Pepsi commercial sang Kashugah
@@DMR6262 Me too (re: the "middle of my 'soul'" lyric)!!
Man, I love this, Carson's voice is perfect for this classic tune.
This is the right way to cover a song.
I cant even..... SHEEEEEEESH !.... the singing - the playing - the lighting - the filming - sound - all perfect.....mesmerizing
Never listened to much Springsteen, but this is exceptional.
the boss is ok, but Carson and Josh are THE BEST.
Shame on you both, Bruce Springsteen and the E street band are the greatest band of all times!!
I needed this
Now, who knew that James Marriott himself fancies some Carson and Josh from time to time?
Yo, ol jimbo enjoying the other favourites, gang gang
You should check out matt Anderson version of this
@@IrishAndy85 Agreed, top version
Amen, Brother James. Brother Jeffy did too.
It really is a perfect song.
I've heard it covered many times, sometimes great, sometimes terrible.. but this.. this is something else. This is on another level beyond.
Great work.
The only thing I didn't like about this one was that it was short. I was able to remedy this somewhat by listening to it a second time straight away. Great job!
yes.. the best ones are just too short..
You guys are phenomenal. The guitar playing and vocals are exceptional to my old ears. Well done gents.👍👍🇨🇦
Awesome guys!! Best cover of this song I've heard yet. You compliment one another's musical nous well as usual. 👌
These guys always have fun and put their hearts into the music.
Great song and Carson's voice is perfect for it!
Carson is ALWAYS perfect!
Gosh could you imagine not knowing about Carson and Josh? Great playing as always
Wow, no guitar solo, but a Carson "Hooo hoo" ... such a simple piece of music and such a beautiful sound ... well done ... pleasure ... Thank you!
Being a huge Springsteen fan for, well, ages let me just say... this has left me speechless.
His songs are the soundtracks of so many parts of my life; it's good to hear your cover but still feel at home as hearing the original!
Now that is a very nice arrangement! And that smile after you sing you "got a bad desire"...
Individually, y'all are so talented. Together, y'all are magic. Y'all are the cure for covid. Thank you for sharing your talent with us.
I agree
I was just thinking exactly the same thing. Each great on their own, something really special together. Though having seen them each do songs with quite a few other people it seems like they bring something special to each combination.
It's a cold, get over it!
@@wretchlikeme5321 spoken by someone who hasn't had it. Though I have had it over a month ago, I was paying them a compliment ignoramus
The CDC hasn't been able to verify this as of yet; still in testing stages.
Carson's voice OMG!
I could listen to you two 24/7 you are my favourite duet of all time with others I have to be the mood but you two I am always in the mood I just love your sound and you two are always tight in your playing and singing. I am 55 and thankful that I was here to witness your partnership.
Carson - this song showcases your beautiful voice and Josh your subtle fill notes provide a depth to the version. This is like my 3rd-4th comment. I listen to this about three times a week since first hearing it. See you in Boulder!
I wish this cover lasted longer. Really amazing work, guys.
Close your eyes, meditate, zone in on yourself with this playing in the background. It's heaven.
NEVER FAIL to impress us.... AMAZING!
This is absolute perfection ! Anyone who dislikes this had to have been beaten by a guitar when they were kids and it busted their ear drums. The harmonies with the 2 guitars and voices soothes my soul so I can feel good about life for at least another night. You 2 kids are amazing and I wish you all the best
Invidually your voices are fantastic, I love the tone. But when you guys harmonise it is magic. So glad you are still making music and making it together.
Wow - I never heard a better cover of this beautiful song.
Oh wow!!!! This is by far my favorite cover of this song and is on replay. Both of you are exceptional players and singers and bring such a positive vibe to the songs you perform. Thank you so much for sharing.
Incredible arrangement and rendition! Your musicality is a treasure. The rim shot effect Josh is able to get from his percussive playing is terrific too.
Flippen magic. Well done Carson, and Josh.
Wow so fantastic musicians, thank you both so much for this wonderful video performance 🎸🎸🎶🎶👌👌✅✅
Always liked that song - now I love it!
Serious class lads. From Leicester, UK
Just YESTERDAY we talked about that this song still needs a mckee cover version and BAM. Magic. Thank you, excellent as always.
Wow! Gorgeous sound. I never really thought about what this song would sound like with smooth, clear voices like yours. This and Thunder Road are my favorite Springsteen songs.
This deserved an immediate replay. Beautifully sung as always. Never a mumbled lyric
Carson! This is superb! As good as the original. You and Josh are a great team.
Just plain great rendition! ...’nuff said! 😎👍
Could this be any more perfect?! Thank you Carson, thank you Josh...The Other Favorites are my favorite.
it was long time ago... my teens... almost forgot what a beauty is this song!
thanks a lot for sharing and reviving my memories :) I'll be back on fire, for sure, somehow ;)
This song was spectacular 🎶🎶🎧 🎶🎶🎙️🎶🎶
Nice and sweet performance boys, well done 👌👌🎶🎶
Thanks guys that was beautiful
Now that was exquisite. Thank you to both. 🙏🏽
Impeccable, as always... two fine young musicians 😊.
Jesus when you see and hear all the crap thats out there these days how the hell are these two not selling millions of records or at very least on the main bill board I just don't get it
so much talent and so young and to cap it all what a voice ??????????????????
This song really showcases your voice Carson 👍
This literally has the production quality of something professional AND OH MY GOD YOUR VOICE IS BEAUTIFUL
Chills big time!! Always loved the song!! In a little over 2 minutes a story is told.
It's a creepy story man that first verse is real creepy
Played this at last nights gig - sounded NOTHING like this and I wish it would have. AMAZING work fellas.
Beautiful - the guitars - Josh's subtle overtones - and your clear voice - awesome job. Love all your music. So encouraging to see you and Josh and your friends playing such high quality natural music.
Springsteen writes some awesome songs and The Other Favorites do them credit. Great cover.
What a beautiful voice!
You guys never cease to amaze me keep up the good work you’re terrific
You're both excellent musicians. I thoroughly enjoy listening to such incredible talent.
You two.... What a sound you make together. What a commitment to your art, and what a friendship. I'm always taken aback. Thanks.
Genius piece of music by Springsteen, composed so one always wants one more listen - really cementing the lyrical meaning of the song. This feeling beautifully captured and performed by this duo
Carson, perfect song, you and Josh are so good together.
My favorite Springsteen song and I love this cover.
Good job guys.
Hello you two. Greetings from Germany. We came across your channel yesterday and were immediately impressed by your covers. The voices are beautiful and everything is very harmonious with the guitars. From us 5 thumbs up. Keep up the good work.
Friday-Night-DUO👍👍👍👍👍
Carson - man, that was solid!! So cool that you and Skylar have both covered this song! Awesome job!!
You two together just makes me smile, and these days I have really needed this. Thank you, thank you thank you.
I could listen to your voice all day! you have a beautiful gift!
OK guys, A NEW FAVORITE. You two just can't make bad music. I Love the two of you makin' Music together.
I loved this song back when; NO ONE has done it justice; UNTIL YOU. SUPER FANTASTIC!
I could listen to this on "Loop" Keep 'em coming, you Brighten my day~ THANK YOU for sharing!
Very Classy once again! Thanks guys.
Can't argue with that kind of talent, thanks to both of you.
What an unbelievable talent these two gentlemen!
Your all’s musicianship is just unbelievable. I am not kidding when I say that I prefer some of your covers over the original artists.
Please keep them coming.
Always looking for good covers of this song, and this ones one of the better ones
Great job Carson! Love to see you and Josh still putting out good old fashioned cover videos. Always with your own interpretation too. Thanks!
could listen for hours. Your both are great musicians.
I’ve commented before on these two young men and I always come back to watch & listen. Not that I’m a big Boss fan However, this performance is one of the best covers I’ve seen on video, audio & live . The sound, tempo and chorus is unbelievable. Superb, wish you’d post more. -God Bless
Sooooooo Good! Your voice is silk as always and your fantastic mic management during the higher pitched "whoo hooo" parts at the end did not go unnoticed. Love to see you fingerpicking while Josh strums for a change. My favorite part of your cover was the smooth yet still punchy rhythm of it.... totally outstanding!
Top shelf, gentlemen.
Seeing you guys playing is like listening to a moving great poem... both in your covers and in your original songs. My favourite musicians, thank you, from Italy
It's a good day when I pull up CZcams and see a video from you guys out there. I can't wait to see you all in person. Thanks for the music.
I love this simple Springsteen song so much. It's good to see you guys pick up this kind of songs and create something totally new while keeping the spirit of the original version. Good stuff!
That was great guys! 👍🏻👍🏻😀
Hey I'm in Brooklyn too! And I grew up hearing Bruce Springsteen, and surrounded by acoustic guitars, also! And you guys did this so spectacular!!!
Just perfect
This tone is righteous
Beautiful song and beautiful cover, congratulations and thanks
Wish I knew how we’ve gone from mixing studios the size of the Houston Mission Control to two dudes and one mic holed up in the guest bedroom, and still get audio as clean, as bright and as warm as this. OK, I concede we are dealing with exceptional raw material. Maybe that’s got something to do with it, haha. Carson’s covers are, as ever, on fire.
Add to that: They only captured audio from a Zoom H2. No separate tracks for vocals & guitars. They are wonderful musos but whatever Josh does in post is also magic. I'd love to know how he manages to put the sound in our ears like that, so cleanly. Very professional from very little. It makes publishing accessible to so many more of us - if we only knew how!
Now that was excellent...one of my favorite Springsteen songs and you did it max justice.
