I'm an Tull fan for 42 years & they are my favorite group of all time. You have done great justice to this wonderful song! Kudos!

That was the song why I felt in love with Tull. That was in 1989 when I was 18 and still holds on. Well, Love's a long song too.😉

the playing is so good, it's easy to overlook that fact that the vocal is actually outstanding here too

5 stars, 2 thumbs and 10 toes! The sound absolutely fills the speakers and, to boot, I can watch you fingers and learn how to do it, too, if I have stamina.

...... bravo Andrea...... La ascoltavo 45 anni fa...... Sempre emozionante !

Without doubt, the best Jethro Tull covers. Not only is the playing outstanding but also the vocals.

This is what I call "covering with heart". When a talented musician is really and truly absorbed with the music s/he likes the resulting performance look and sound like those done by you, Andrea! All the very best!

you are the ultimate Jethro Tull cover guy ! No one better !

Wow...very nice! I have listened to Tull for almost 40 years. That was terrific. I don't say that lightly. :-)

Awesome!! Perfect!! You are by far the best Tull guy on the internet!! Keep them coming!!

16+ years on... "will the years treat us well?". So fine, andrea. So completely fine.

WOW!! Andrea.. absolutely great! Your covers of my all time favorite band are THE BEST!! Keep 'em coming man. JM

cudownie, jesteś Jethro MIstrzem!!!!!

You are so dialed in, my brother. I play pretty much all the songs you do and, I'd be proud to accompany you. You understand the nuances of the music and we who share that with you are members of a very special fraternity.

Beh... Senza parole. Bravissimo

Bravo Andrea! Great version of this Tull classic.

Do you see that thing in the floor? Yeah, that's it, it's my jaw! Absolutely great!

What a beautiful rendition of a simply lovely song!

More awesomeness from Andrea...thank you.

I agree with betonauton that the genious of Ian's compositions truly shine when you perform his songs with only your voice and an acoustic guitar. You are incredible, and if you sold a CD with all of your video tracks on it, I would certainly buy it!

I keep coming back to your videos, You are a Master at Tull music. Bravo

You are awesome and I haven't heard of any artist in my 66 years doing a cover so well.Its exactly the same as the original song.Life's a long song and with your kinda singing we can sing away our blues. You do amazingly perfect covers of all Tull numbers.Superb!

The best cover of for me the best song ever

Better and better........just fantastic...

perfect cover, hope you do it again in good quality

brilliantly performed and i am one of the most puristist of ian anderson fans.. bravo i'm about to watch it again

Just one word - Awesome! Ok, sorry, I have a few more. I've been playing a halfway decent version of the song for like 30 years now. Thanks for showing me how to really do it right.

Andrea. Like the german comment said, 'what can I say?' except that I listen to most of your songs quite often and I only hope that Ian himself has seen some of them because out of ALL the good covers on here YOURS ARE MOST DEFINITELY THE BEST. I've been playing most of these songs since they first came out and I'm still nowhere near your standard. I talk about you to all my friends. From: the person who you made cry on his birthday with listening to Sossity. Mark

Andrea - absolutely superb! Not just your guitar playing but your voice also. It takes a special person to sing this song and stir the same feelings the original does. One of the best covers I've heard.

It's a full enjoyment to hear and see you playing this fantastic tune.😊

FANTASTIC! Very much like the real song! Bravo!

I pay attention as a flute player … you are the winner !

Guitar work is excellent. Vocal work compliments nicely. Great job. Very easy to listen to.

Wonderful. Nice guitar technique and singing. Keep spreading the joy of a long song!

Excellent......what more can anyone say!

this a truly incredible performance, the guitaring as far as i am concerned is top notch along with vocals over the top of a complex melody. well done, im using this video to learn it!

I am just floored. So beautiful.

Per niente facile cantarla, grande interpretazione e complimenti Andrea!

I remember this being released when I was a kid. It has always been my very favourite song and the one I will have played when I shuffle off the planet. You have done a fantastic job, well done.

Yep this is my "farewell cruel world" song. Beautiful and an old friend I've known for so long. Perfect version.

Andrea che dire, semplicemente fantastico. E anche un po di sana invidia, non sai che darei per suonare e cantare le canzoni dei Jethro come fai tu. Non posso che cercare le altre tue cover!

I was thinking of trying to learn this one myself, and your version will be a great help. You play and sing this fantastically well.

A beer on me...wow...brilliant performance...:)

This is by far the best cover on the Tube. Why don't you do a tutorial on this one to show all of the other people how this song is actually played?

Beautiful cover! Thanks for showing me how to play the song!
