    There are actually two versions of this song. This is the acoustic version and the other one has electric guitars and bass kick in after the first chorus.

    It was trimmed down a bit for the music video. The version on the album is about a minute longer, more space before the vocals enter at the beginning and more space going from each chorus to the next verse.

      I have seen them in concert many times. I’m seeing them in April also. They just dropped 2 new videos Dead ☠️ Don’t Die & A symptom of being human”. One is hard rock & the other is soft rock. And a older one is The Sound of Madness. Their concerts you can take the whole family to cause they have families to. I hope this will help you out in finding out more about Shinedown.

      Shinedown is amazing live great guys met them multiple times. I think Brent Smith is one of the best vocalist out there now. He can sing anything. Also has acoustic project called Smith and Myers lead singer and guitarist who is in the band now.

  • @crawldaddy7

    I like to think the band has a personal connection to this songor at least thats what it feels like there have been many times i have listened to the original and thought man if it had a lil more feeling anyway they did an amazing job stripping down an reconstructing an already beautiful song

      Shinedown's guitarist at the time of this video is married to Ronnie Van Zants Daughter. The little girl holding the picture of Ronnie is the guitarists daughter and Ronnie's granddaughter.

      I’d like to add Judy, Ronnie’s widow gave Brent Smith a place to stay in her summer house. Brent said he would one day pay her back. He gave her the royalties from this song.

    Its true, no one can sing Lynard Skynard like LS. However, this LS song is sung by Shinedown's amazing vocalist (back in his prime) and its far superior IMO. Simple Man and Fly from the Inside are 2 of my favorite Acoustic songs of 2000s. I think the simpler instrumentals allows for the emotion of the voice to cut through!

    • @maryhelenbuchele7342
      @maryhelenbuchele7342 Місяць тому

      He still sings it like this but uses his powerful vocals for acoustic project Smith and Myers he can still sing like he did. He does change his voice but he still can sing like this 20 years later.

    They no longer play this in concert. At the time this was recorded Shinedown guitarist Jasin Todd was married to Melody Van Zant, the daughter of Ronnie Van Zant. So it was all in the family. After Jasin left the band they dropped it from their sets out of respect.

      ua-cam.com/video/5wdQ_sBHGZY/v-deo.html Here is the 2013 interview with the band talking about it,. I dont know, maybe they did start playing it again at some point. But at the time they did stop. In Brents own words it would be disrespectful to keep playing it after Jasin left the band.

    Simple Man is already a long-established and iconic song so it’s hard to give an objective score on the cover, other than to critique this specific take on the original. That said, I see this one as a nearly flawless and nicely -stripped down rendition of a bonafide classic. The vocals are truly special, and I’m not even a Shinedown fan. I remember when this cover dropped in the mid-2000’s and it’s one of my (many) favorite covers. My score is a 9.1 so I’m interested to see your score (haven’t watched the review part yet!

    • @MegaTechpc

    I think I've listened to this cover more than the original. And on one hand, the cut-down version for that video annoys me (especially the vocal overlap going into the last verse), but on the other it works well enough for a reaction and review.
