    Music professor here guys. GREAT JOB on this!! And let me just say, there is something classy and professional about taking out a curse word and replacing it with a family friendly word that people don't mind children of all ages listening to. You don't HAVE to curse - there are other adjectives available and it definitely does not take away from the quality music and talent you've just displayed here. Well done on this one.

    Rough crowd! In my opinion, to have a band of guys their age playing music with real instruments, words that anyone can understand, with awesome vocals and harmony and all we can talk about is the fact they chose to remove a curse word. Don't listen to the haters! Keep making musicguys! Well done.

    I couldn't imagine this song working with an electric main guitar. I was wrong. That 370 Rickenbacker was up to the task! The young man singing lead does Gerry's voicing proud. Nice job with this song as a group. Good instrumentation and harmonizing. Loved the background activities in the video! I could almost feel the sunshine and smell the burgers. RIP Dan Peek.

  • @bettertvreceptionwithfoilf7100

    These brothers do a fine job of covering this song! I had to laugh when he said, darn instead of damn and as i listened, i realized i had sung it that way when i was his age as well, but that was 1976 for me. Loved it.

    I accidentally found this link because I was hoping Rick Beato had a breakdown of what makes this song so great since he put it on his list of top 20 singer-songwriters list. But that didn't exist and so I clicked on this because the production looked professional enough and something about your coffee intro gave me this vibe that whoever I was about to hear play were good. And you lived up to the hype. This cover is as good as the original maybe better.

    This song was a Big Hit when it was first on the charts and I see no reason you guys can not have a Chart Hit with your version, so nearly identical to the original. It's great when someone does a re-make of a song without wrecking it ! In watching your video my thoughts go somewhere in between The Partridge family and The Beach Boys in their earlier days, and I mean that with all compliments. Many of your fans may not have heard the original Hit so to them your version is something New !
