This was one of the best things you've done since Drake n Josh
So funny this has under 500-views. This is the best cover of this song, on CZcams.
James Heyward thank you so much, I really appreciate it!
On the internet
think this is the best elliot cover of all time lol.
@@MattTregortha easy
It has more than 500 now lol
Not an easy riff, and your voice is the closest to Elliot Smith's I've ever heard. Fantastic job dude
Elliott Smith was not only a genius songwriter, he was also an incredible guitarist
Don't think I've ever commented on a cover, but holy shit man this is awesome. Great work
Holy shit dude-- you killed it!! Amazing!!! :D
Thanks!
This blew my mind. You do justice by him and his most beautiful music with this flawless performance. You are beyond talented....and don't ever stop doing this and making the most out of it.
Bro I don't know if you'll see this as it's old but this is an incredible cover. Almost certainly the best on this website. The way you play the notes, particularly at the start, I don't know how to describe it, but it's lovely. Nice voice too. And as someone else said, you look like Smith. Thanks for uploading :)
Just think Elliott wrote that arrangment, genius
Great rendition on both of your talents
great job mate, I can play it but cannot sing it like you. keep posting more elliott covers. always a pleasure.
Thanks so much! :)
Really great job on that cover. It’s perfect.
I love the power you display with these delicate songs.
The voice, the smooth transition and even your haristyle. The Elliott presence is strong dude, good job 👍
Haha thanks :)
Fucking bravo, dude. I can imagine how tough it was to learn knowing Elliott's songs.
OMG i was on another window and your cover started playing and i legit thought this was elliott smith. I considered for a second if it was a cover by you or other artists that really resemble him (note that i hav listened to your covers before). but man was i fooled. keep going you are amazing.
Insomnia hits again. This video makes me so happy right now and your voice helps me to calm down. Thank youuu for sharing the covers with the world. I come back to them from time to time and it touches me every time again. Greets from Berlin
didn’t miss a mark w the guitar work wow
Elliott Smith made a great bunch of simple songs but he demonstered he could be a guitar hero with songs like this one or Angeles. Amazing cover, I hope I can play it like you some day. !
your singing voice sounds so good dude, and the guitar too?? 10/10
I am truly in awe over this cover. Absolutely magical.
i keep hitting replay because i cannot get over it
Same lol
What a mind to make this up and it also takes someone very talented to get it down note for note! Respect!
You really did this Justice.
bella bella bellissima cover. love it
Perfect
Flawless
I think we should rate guitarist with a similar point system that they rate chess players. Conquering Elliott Smith's Independence Day earns you like a 1000 rating. Do "Angeles" flawlessly and you earn the rank of "guitar master!"
This song is harder than Angeles
I revisit this video often. Easily my favorite cover of possibly my favorite Elliott Smith song. Great stuff!! Thanks for putting it together
Dude this song is so hard to play, and you killed it
makes me want to try to play it again
Thanks!
Wow, this is brilliant. The guitar playing is magnificent, and your vocals are spot-on.
Best Elliot Smith cover ever great guitar great everything your perfect and I'm so happy a fan of his is almost as talented as him like him OMG
this is the best Independence Day cover on CZcams by far!
Perfect cover. Absolutely amazing
Holy fucking hell man, that's 100%
Incredible
SMOOTH finish. Well done!
Wow, beautifully done!
Dude you nailed this man
I come back to this video so often. Just incredible.. you can see how hard you’ve practised. Thanks for sharing!
This is incredible!!!!!
Just wanted to say thanks for posting this! Used this vid to help me learn how to play the song for a performance I did 3 years ago. Better late than never
this is so good
Masterful and great singing.
I hardly subscribe to any youtube channels, holy crap your channel is a hidden gem. You deserve much more recognition for your playing. Great job. I've been using your videos to learn these songs. Thanks for the resource!
Nailed it
This is the video to watch to figure out how to play this song, damn!
You have probably the most accurate Elliott Smith covers I have seen. Would love to see more.
nicely done man, your voice kept in the right notes all the way, this is the best independence day cover i´ve listened so far
WOW, that's increditble. How does this not have way more views?

Bravooo! That was amazing dude. This a really hard alt tuning song to play and you did it like it was butter.
Holy shit someone could tell me this is Elliott smith performing live and I’d believe it, bravo man!’

What a cover.. Elliott should see this..
If a biopic is ever made of him, I’d hope they’d cast you.
Brilliant
That's skilled.... Very nice
Wow. You mastered this song. You clearly have an incredible ear for music because you sang every note just like him and had all of the guitar perfect. I forgot I was listening to a cover! Beautiful job
