DIDNT KNOW THE ORIGINAL BEFORE THIS AND I MUST SAY I LOVE THIS SO MUCH MORE!!! I CANT BELIVE IT ONLY HAS 51K VIEWS IN 3 YEARS. THIS IS SOOOOOOOOOOO GOOOOOOD! MAN OH MAN I FEEL BLESSED FOR FINDING THIS LOL

I discovered the original recently and this version started playing when I was driving my 3 yr old to school. I could tell the song grabbed him and brought him in deep. When it finished he simply said as a 3 year old does, "again daddy". Warmed my heart knowing he can recognise such a beautiful song :)

The first cover version that I have ever heard that does justice to the unbridled majesty of the song. Brilliant, simply brilliant.

Thank you for this most soulful and beautiful cover of one of my all time favourite songs

Singers like this one deserved the right place. You should make your own songs and make success it's a very good voice really .

Have you heard the version by ‘acoustic odds’?

This first came out when inwas on college, and I liked it, but I absolutely love this ❤❤❤❤❤

How do you make a great song even better? Thanks

Hi there Samuel, thank you for spending the time and effort to create such a beautiful cover version of a great song, but your composition is amazing especially with the acoustic guitar always my favourite style of music, just the artist his voice and his acoustic guitar, well done this is by far the best version of this song I've ever heard your very talented and should be proud of your self, thanks so much for sharing this with the world. The day my much loved 15yrs old border collie passed away I found this song, every time I hear it it makes me cry , so I've dedicated this song to him 😅

All dogs know this song as "The Whole of The Bone". I lost my 16yo friend last November, I still miss her more than I can say. Sorry for your loss. It's tough.

Le majetique!!

Very nice Samuel. Top Class.

Still makes me SAD. Everytime I hear it.

It's such a superb vibe, and that voice is so clear and powerful. Thank you, 🎉

I am your 604th subscriber, mainly because of how you treated song. Brilliant. Until I heard this Fiona Apple's cover was the only one I liked. Thank you for this.

dude not many can rip that song apart,you have done it..class..really really good

Absolutely wonderful. Always loved this song. Your rendition is superb !

awesome mate , sounds luscious.

One of my favourite songs, and this is the best cover I've ever seen. Found it on a search for acoustic covers of WOTM, and I've been coming back to it regularly for the last couple of years, and then looking through your other videos today I see you're in Alterative Eighties with Rob Cross. I know him, Smithy and Chris from back when Orphan Boy used to play Manchester. I speak to Paul Storr who did your band logo too, but seperately through the design community. Small world! and seriously, incredible cover mate. It hits hard.
