Doing it again. Trying to practice this 'jank, homies. Don't care if you uber-hardcore Tool fanatics are going to hate on my stuff. Just don't care. Thank you and best regards.
Okay, this is by far the best cover of this song I could find and I love it so much. Covers are best when they're somewhat transformative and the author adds something of themselves to it and you aced that! You actually put me in a good mood while studying for a test, so thank you for that :P
i absolutely hate covers that try to be identical . I don't believe that's the point. the point is to make new versions. Tributes are so lame. (tributes are supposed to be identical) Only tribute to be a RIP .
Dec 2020, Hearing your cover for the first time, dude... that was fûcking amazing. You very much added your own little zest to the song. Proud of you, seriously, in this world of everyone knocking off everyone else... you made a version of something "new" that is decent. Really decent. I enjoyed this greatly. Peace be upon you and your's in the future and in every facet of life. Thank you.
Scott, Appreciate the kind words!! It’s all about feeling it out in your own jammy way... Thanks much, man - and all the best to you, and yours! Best, (John) Christopher Stearns
what a unique spin you put on this - i absolutely loved it dude. i've never heard this song covered this way, and covers in your own style is what music is all about. well done!
Genuinely surprised to hear an acoustic cover of this song do e so well. Honestly didn’t think it could be done, at least without radically changing it. But you managed to honor the original while still making it your own AND just being plain good. I’m so impressed. Well done, sir.
It's been said already, and more eloquently than I can.... But this is great, beautiful. Love this song 💜, love your rendition. The guitar lessons paid off (plus the panties dropping). Peace

Hey, man - thanks! I seriously don't know... I've been asked a few times, so I guess I need to start looking at what chords are what. It's definitely a fun one to play, but I never took music courses or anything. I apologize for being musically-illiterate, and I'll try to get this figured out for ya'!
I’ll tab it up eventually... Just been so lazy about it. That said, enough folks have asked for some tabbage that I’m feeling like a douchebag for *not* doing it after >4 years since this vid post. Thanks a lot, BTW!!!
'Twas recorded in my warehouse...! Frankly, I think it would be solid gold if vocals were just a touch louder -- but I think it's aged well in spite of the iPhone-quality of audio/video. Thanks for the feedback, homie-juice!
I played it in standard, but I am almost positive it was not EADGBE. My pitch is great, but I can't remember what "True E" sounds like to save the life of me.
Hey, man - not exactly sure how I had it set up, and don’t understand anything [reading] music (as a matter of science/theory)… However, I know it’s the standard EADGBE format, but I’ve got it up or down a step, or two and a half up, or IDFK your guess is as good as mine…! 😆😬😓
as an Uber-hardcore tool fanatic, this is beautiful
Kaleb Moore - Thank ya' kindly. That's a hefty compliment from one of the hardcore. 😅
I can totally see this as the intro to very gritty western.
A western ? uhhh ... i guess all americans are western .
very true.. maybe in the intro of fear and loathing in las vegas.

Well, sheesh - thanks so much for the kind comment!! I was just thinking earlier about doing a new 'Tube video...
PS - Make sure you listen w/ headphones! My vocals are a bit quiet here...

Added in my playlist. Very pleasant, I believe I will keep listening to it till the day I die. Pure success.

Too bad you can only like video once! This is very beautiful and inspiring cover of my favourite song(s?) from Lateralus, thank you for it!
Thank ya' kindly.
This is one of the most fascinating interpretations of music on the internet...
Dob Williams - Glad you like; sir.
This is wonderful, it deserves 10x or 100x the views it got!
- an uber-hardcore Tool fanatic
it sound like a stoner/southern rock played by Kyuss on acustic guitar, very well played btw!!
ty
I'm absolutely going to have to give this a try. Thanks for the leading the way!
Rock on, and share a vid... Would love to see some other takes on this flow for Parabol/Parabola.
Beautiful, thanks for sharing,
Thank ya' kindly.

Oh man, I never took lessons... I sucked in school, and would've likely sucked as a formal student in guitar also.
Thank you for your kind words!

Daniel57028 - Thanks! Just having fun with the freshness.
Amazing performance, mate

Nice cover! I'm waiting more works, from Japan
Thanks much! Greetings, and good tidings from 🇺🇸!!
Not bad mate,not bad at all👏🤙

Tool led zeppelinized. I can feel a jimmy page vibe through the riffs on the acoustic.
Heh, maybe!! My playing style whores after Dave Matthews, and might help explain my jive...?!
this kicks ass
Thanks, man!
Sounds great
Thanks!
And thank you once again. :)
WOW!

Awesome cover!
Anyone else get Incubus vibes?
Thx much!
Nice cover. Where did you shoot this? At work?
Sofien IKHLEF - That is correct, sir.
Christopher Stearns that job is a keeper!
Can you give me any leads on the tuning and verse chords? Thank you, great song
Hey, man - thanks! I seriously don't know... I've been asked a few times, so I guess I need to start looking at what chords are what. It's definitely a fun one to play, but I never took music courses or anything. I apologize for being musically-illiterate, and I'll try to get this figured out for ya'!
Forgive me - I seem to always post replies from one of my other Google accounts!!
Beautiful and jamz
I would also love to have a tab of this
Dude, this is fucking amazing...
Would it be too much to ask for a tab?
I’ll tab it up eventually... Just been so lazy about it. That said, enough folks have asked for some tabbage that I’m feeling like a douchebag for *not* doing it after >4 years since this vid post. Thanks a lot, BTW!!!
If Ed Sheeran covered Tool, this is amazing!
Hah ha, what a comment... Thanks, I think!! :)

Are you in drop D??💖
I am not.
Marry me
Wish you had a microphone , where did you record this ? hiding in the back of your work hiding in a closet ??
'Twas recorded in my warehouse...! Frankly, I think it would be solid gold if vocals were just a touch louder -- but I think it's aged well in spite of the iPhone-quality of audio/video.
Thanks for the feedback, homie-juice!
did you play this in standard tunning?
I played it in standard, but I am almost positive it was not EADGBE. My pitch is great, but I can't remember what "True E" sounds like to save the life of me.
Awesome what's the tuning at
Hey, man - not exactly sure how I had it set up, and don’t understand anything [reading] music (as a matter of science/theory)…
However, I know it’s the standard EADGBE format, but I’ve got it up or down a step, or two and a half up, or IDFK your guess is as good as mine…! 😆😬😓

@@twetch373 ha
Hey dude, can you submit or pass me the tabs?
What tuning is this?
Standard’ish!
@@twetch373 Thanks. I figured it out. You are a quarter step up from standard. Great cover. I really love the Parabol part.
@@kinzowolff773 - Thanks much! I’m not really trained, per sé... Glad to know what I was doing! 😅😅😅
@@twetch373 I am not either, just have a decent ear and a tuner lol. The tuning really works though.
Not sorry... this is better than the original
