"Enemy" by Days of the New was the first song I learned how to play from the Green Album. My sister and her ex-boyfriend were having an argument in the backyard (which was pissing me off because it was lame) so I barricaded myself in my room and thought I'd try to learn a difficult song. I basically wanted to learn it because of the ridiculous solo at the end of the track which took a long time to perfect.
You'll be glad to know that solo is included here.
Tuning: B F# C# F# A C#
Darryl, you are an amazing guitar player. I love DOTN. Your cover of 'Enemy' is beyond my wildest dreams. I hope Travis gets a chance to hear your passion one day. I'm sure he'd be proud.
13 years later and im just finding this cover now. Incredible job man!
bro you should make tutorials on how to play the solo at the end, that would be badass!
Amazing.. No one else on UA-cam is covering DOTN songs this well. -Bravo sir
Yea and it's a fucking shame because they are great....wish travis could get his shit together
@@Dustindoesitall will never happen. He's a douche bag that's too far gone
@@joshestess it's unfortunate man..
@@Dustindoesitall it really is. I actually talked to the drummer a few years back and he told me pretty much none of the band members were on speaking terms with him.
@@joshestess Mike Starr dying in his house didn't do him any favors either not that it was his fault but you know. I'm actually from Indiana and he did some time at the farm a prison there and while I was in I spoke to a guy who was locked up with him said he was still just an addict inside too. Had women that were sending him in money and just doing speed. It's really sad man cause he's such a bloody good musician.
That's Kentucky music right there son! Love it bro. Shout out from KY.
anthony mays I always drink Kentucky bourbon with days of the new, best combo ever
Western Kentucky right here, one of my favorite bands
The source to come for learning (and tuning!!) the songs of Days of The New. I've grown up continuously coming back to these videos. You are quick to inspire, thanks for the uploads.
Yup. I come back to this every now and then. Great job.
I’ve never seen anyone cover/play DOTN better. Amazing.
Here I am, finally after all these years. A one man band doing the most beautiful tribute to one of my favorites. Thank you so very much for performing and posting this!
I've watched this 14000 times. Absolutely immaculate. Good shirt choice as well.
Thank you (and thank you) sir!
I am not kidding. I have watched that solo over 10 times, man. AMAZING. Before I ever learned guitar I wanted to learn that solo. Amazing man. The whole song. Amazing man.
Insane talent, completely insane really
I just wanted to say that aside from your great taste in music. You have a gift, and it's awe inspiring to watch you play. It's actually inspired me to start playing again after many years of not due to...well life. Keep on jammin' man.
trahornio78 Thank you! Enjoy reconnecting with your guitar.
Darryl James Official man it's a hard one to sing with. You nailed it better than the meastro himself .
I think this was the first video of yours that I listened to years ago... Still good. I love your playing bro.
Dude. You went in, killing the song I once won...
This is superb work, coming from someone who's been playing guitar since 1990, singing since I was a kid before that.
Beautiful cover my friend...
Great post! You've really done your homework and the sound you're getting out of your guitar is amazing. Just flawless and extremely detailed and you sing!
Nice job! One of my favorite songs/bands from the 90's.
I don't care if this is old- this is amazing!
I’ve enjoyed this cover for years!
This is quite amazing.. I must admit when I have given up on crummy radio music I can always come back to this and still have hope that there is talent in the world!
Master 👏🏻, excellent cover. Travis Meeks never die 🤘🏻
You nailed the guitar man. 5 stars hands down.
Great job! Took me back to the first time hearing this song
Awesome cover!! I was looking after a version of this song like this...
Thank you so much.
Najix, DOTN will iive on forever brother...Fans all over the world still. One of the best best in late history, hands down...Keep the dream alive brother...
always liked this bands guitar work
Tyson Judd Travis Meeks wrote it all.
Beautiful!!! Congrats, you play PERFECTLY and sing beautifully. 10 stars for you from a friend from Madrid :)
Dude, this is some mean azz guitar right there. WOW!
I just recently discovered this song, having long been a fan of DotN. And your cover is simply amazing. That's some damned good guitar picking right there.
Hey man.
I'm from Brazil and you is the best!
Perfect.
👏👏👏👏👏 fan of yours and DOTN, from México 🇲🇽🙌
great job with the whole song and fucking fantastic with the solo.
It's my favorite solo of travis's
all entire ending of that song is like possibly the most awesome thing I have ever heard.
never know how he writes shit so beautiful.
Dude!!!Hands down...you totally rock...sounds exactly like the stuff Travis played!
this cover is nuts. awesome job my man!
real nice! Love the improv at the end, too!
In all honesty, very well done. My respects man! Travis Meeks and Days of the New are my favorite artist/band of all time. I'd give up my immortal soul for playing like that! :P
I'm glad people still enjoy good music, especially by such masterful acousticans(Days of The New) and you nailed that shit man, bravo..
great job, im glad you decided to cover this.
awesome song--lyrically and musically
Years ago there was a fanclub website, with hardcore fans and they tabed out all of his work including live stuff, that was one off even. I wish that site was around. It was in my homestate of Wisconsin, wear i saw travis play 3 times, here in Wisconsin just by himself, real authentic shows that were amazing, and he was spot on and never missed a beat, i feel lucky
insanely clean and well played... wow
What guitar tab fits what he is playing closest on ultimate guitar or any other site, thanks. One of the most underated songs ever on one of the most underated albums ever, by one of the most underated artists of ever. Travis, get your shit together man, you have so much more to offer to yourself and others.
Agreed - greatest musician of the times; unknown to the masses…..but…..Travis could….and I hope he does….rise like the phoenix; his music blows away everything. Everything.
Awesome stuff - you've clearly put some serious time into your music and it's been worth it. I love this song and most stuff by DOTN so will be listening my way through the rest of your videos as well. Thanks for sharing!
dude that was killer, you really good
you know your way around a guitar, I like that
keep it up kid
Very good stuff. Great guitar work also!
i keep comming across you more and more and you really are great man keep it up!
This looks so difficult but I really want to learn this now! it is possible!
You do an amazing job. I can't wait to learn more days of the new and I really like the rawness of this song without all the "yeahs".
This video stands the test of time. Great job dude
Nice to see this beautiful song stripped down to its root. Great playing man, tons of feel..
Sick, bruh. I appreciate your playing.
This was amazing my friend. Being able to play and sing it at the same time is a difficult task, but I tip my hat to you.
'Yeah.. YEAH!'
dude, that was pretty sweet. I like that instead of trying to copy his voice you just sang with your own, which is always way better in the end. Nice job...
Back again 13 years later, because this is THE cover version of this song
I love days of the new, and I think you did a great job covering them. Keep up the good work...
Absolutely wonderful. A brilliant job!
I rarely comment on peoples videos but damn son. Helluva good. Think i might even check out your album. Keep it up!
Absolutely amazing....
one of my fave songs...awesome cover dude!
I love this solo🔥🔥🔥
what a awesome cover dude, love Travis, congrats!!!
the best cover of this song on youtube
Dude these videos are so awesome !
I'm almost speechless man. Absolutely spot on guitar work. If I could play like that, I would quit my job and try to make records. I wish you all the best. May I ask how long you have been playing?
This needs more views. U killed that.
Dude ...fu@%ig cool you opened some chords to this guy...awesome...GJ man
You absolutely killed it what a great cover and I hope you cover some tool also on acoustic. You are so talented. Thank you for sharing it.
Darryl - this is awesome. Would love to hear your take on the unreleased stuff like ”Dope Road” and “Boundaries”; killer playing.
Amazing cover dude.
Bad ass dude. I dig your covers.
Sorry it took so long to hear this. Great version!
absolutely amazing!
I had my guitar teacher tab this all out....so much
fun
Amazing cover
the ending of this song is def sweet
This is very impressive buddy... I tried the first little intro. I play parts differently but I know how hard is to sing the verses and play. I can't do the last part of the solo because I don't have a cut-away but you nailed it.
Big Days fan. So much so that I really appreciate how in depth this song is. You worked hard on it and it shows. Well done
Wow...i dont listen to alot of guitar music like this...but holy ____ Thats amazing ...lmao its really good!!
Man seriously. That was awesome
honestly i came across this cover couple years ago... and im not a huge days of the new fan but at 3 mins it gives me the chills everytime. Fucking voice is perfect. Id have to agree that i like that part better then original.
Hot damn dude you roasted this.. killer job.
ULTRA WOW MY FRIEND!!! That's right... you've received my first ever... ULTRA WOW!!!
Love this song!
wow great cover man, I never really gave this song a chance when listening to the original but this is great!
Beyond Amazing. I'm in awe...
Good job man i love Days of the new your good man
Nice work man!
this is the best version of this song on the interwebs, yes even including the dotn dance remix
I love DOTN and I am glad someone has finally made some decent posts on here. Great Job. May I request that you do Die born from their red album???
Outstanding. It a couple strings sounded a little out of tune initially, but I didn't notice it anymore after a while.
Awesome Job !!
Awesome! Well Done!!!
Fantastic bro
awesome job dude! i like that you have your own voice your not trying to be travis.
One of my favorite solos at the end. Travis is one of the best..its hard to see what road he chose to take.
I absolutely loved it . . . honestly you sound and play as good if not better than Travis Meeks - who is a genius! You are so gifted :-)
amazing- that was awesome!i feel insufficient to pick up my guitar now lol
You are the real deal my friend!
Awesome man, awesome!
Dude your great.
dude, that was awesome!!!!!
excellent, congratulations dude
awasome guitar!!!!!
@najix Same here. First listening to this song when this album was released made me go "wha...". Now it has grown to be one of my top songs of his. I could still do with out the "yeah"'s at the start... but it does not make this track any less awesome.
