Arrrgh! You have enough talent to make performing like this lucrative. Another great video. If your kid(s) are now a little older and you have space to make some good quality recordings I am sure you would find reward for your time. You have the voice, skill (and your foxy!). The recipe is there it just needs to be done. :D
Your voice, & your take on this song, put me in a trance, esp. 1 part. I'm a drummer, and I noticed something: your tremolo on 'my' before 'breath' subdivides the time in this perfect way. Time seems to actually slow down, then kicks in again. The effect is hypnotizing. I never hear voice used rhythmically that way in relation to the tempo, & it makes the song even more beautiful. U should experiment w/that. W/your ability to bend time you can PROBABLY TAKE OVER THE WORLD!^_^
Just read some of the comments... What is wrong with some of the mutants that watch these vids..... " her arms aren't moving a lot , so she isn't playing"...that's funny, she is gently picking a guitar, not guiding a jumbo jet onto a carrier deck whilst gripped by an epileptic seizure. If you look really close you will see her hand mmoving down in the right hand corner, just like it does when you pick a guitar. BTW...your voice was very right for this beautiful song. thankyou.lovely.
Mate you have a great voice, probably the closest here I have heard on UA-cam to Beth's - but unique enough to make it yours ;P Amusing the comment below me from mangacrazy, would he like to give us a demo of his voice perhaps? Lol. Great job, all the best!
GotZou, yes, House used it for their opening but its a Massive Attack song from around 1998 or so. This is a very good cover of that song. Part of the appeal to the song is the drum track and vinal sounnds,but this is worth having in an MP3 player. I'm going to check out your other vids, good job!
Never heard this before, so I watched the real video. Kinda freaky... not sure I get it. I like your vid better. No. I like your VERSION better. It's clean and pure. The other one gets lost in drums, other instruments and sound effects. Can't beat a good acoustic guitar player.
I've had comments from peopel asking me to do this with a proper guitarist and then others questioning whether it's really me playing! The playing's very simple. What do you mean by delaying the lyrics? I don't really want to learn any of this, it's just a hobby to distract me from the mundane.
My favourite UA-cam singer and one of my favourite songs. OVER NINE THOUSAND STARS!!!! You've got a great taste in music, an unbelievable voice and such beauty. I still can't get over the fact you're not releasing albums! I notice a keyboard in the background....do you play?
fantastic .. not only the voice, which is like angels whispering in your ear .. but the way your project the feeling. I have been listening to covers of this for the past 2 hours .. and this one makes you feel the most. thank you!
Rachel hunny, that was absolutly amazing, your voice is incredable, I could happily listen to you for hours. The song and your rendition has beauty beyond words and so do you. ;) Your version could easily be the original. Much love Paul
well the point of our question is not whether it's easy or hard to play, it's just that your arms dont look like moving so it looks a bit awkward. But hey you got a nice voice and I think that's what it's all about, isnt it?
great voice nice guitar work but its too high for me the guitar for you're voice i think you must be using nails or pic? try pickign with the pads of ur fingers - just to pop'y if ya know what i mean but you did an awesome job
The guitarbit is boring, the voice is fine, I saw this other video where this girl goes too much into freestyle. Perhaps if you played just a little more with your voice this would be excellent. Now it's only really good.
Very impressive. Your version makes the lyrics far more accessible 'love is a doing word'. That line will live with me forever, and to think despite having heard Mezzanine a few times, I never caught that line.
Hi, Nice Cover, good work. I am trying to have a go at this on the guitar, do you have the tabs? I have had a good look round but I cant find the same ones as you have. Many Thanks Alex
Wow...that was pretty good actually... great voice. You've got really good control, maybe a little pitchin problems here and there...not much to be noticible... i thought it was great!! Hope to hear more.
One of my very favourites.. We walked down the aisle to this song. You do it every justice. Beautiful :) If only you could kill the background hiss hey. Lol you need a studio!
I don't use this word very often, but that was simply beautiful. It is one of my all-time favourite songs, and you not only did the original justice, but made it your own. Well done :)
I guess your arms don't move much when you're picking, not as much as when you're strumming at any rate. I'm not sure what it's all about, but I think it's about having fun :)
Takes too long - I recorded it as an mp3 because about 15 people have asked me for one. I'd have to put it into moviemaker - I'll email it to you if you give me your address.
Not the the best sound quality... but the talent shines shines through... What a lovely voice... and an amazingly attractive lady... Have confidence you are a true star...
I hope you don't get offended or anything but your voice reminds me of Dolores O'Riordan from the Cranberries. Just enchanting and beautiful voice to match your cute face!
Awesome voice! Nailed it! Awesome guitar playing too. I understand that this is a fairly easy song, but even a simple song can be really hard trying to do vocals too.
just a bit more melody viariations with the vocal, just like the ones on the original version, and you'd sound just the best cover on youtube cheers and thx for the music!
hat there dont spose you could make a vid with just your hands doing the chords cant find one tutorial on this song and you sound the best out of everyone churchur
wow... thats amazing. you hit all those pitch in that song, and its a really hard one too. I'll never post a vid of me sing that song, it'll sound like a dieing crow
Thanks for the comments :) Anyone's welcome to an mp3; just message me your email address. I'll have to do another recording of this one though so it won't be identical.
Have a go?! Your response video is fantastic, love it! We should get together and do something, you're obviously a much more accomplished guitarist than me.

2019 and still best version a ever heard...your voice is magic!

Very nice.

I don't usually watch people doing their own covers of the songs I like..But this really does look professional and nice..Keep up the great work..
I'm quite a fan of Jose Gonzalez, but he can't do Teardrop as well as you. His has extra bells. And not sure his voice suits this song.
Yeah, funnily enough I've changed the guitar now to mimic the original more - it's slower though so you might find it even more boring ;)
This is stunning. Thank you very much for this, you have an angelic voice.
It calms me down through this hard moment. Tear drop.
My best wishes~
amazing voice. i'm not a singer but i can only imagine this must be a difficult song to pull off. you did it Beautifully.
Oh my gosh! You sound fantastic! You have such a beautiful voice - what a gift! I'm too ashamed for even trying!
Cheers
out of all the last 10 covers at least ive heard on here this is the only one ive listened to all the way through
Hey Rach!
You are getting better and better everytime you post a new vid! You're still my fav youtube artist! R
Reading the words I'm afraid - makes a change though, most of the time people tell me off for having my eyes shut.
best female cover on youtube.
you got the perfect voice for it.
you sing it twice as good as I do. jealous!:P
keep it up!
simply beautiful
i must say i enjoyed that very much so
im currently learning the song
good job, keep it up!
really incredible work. subscribed! would you consider covering a hem song? Very similar is vocal styles.
wow .. i agree with all the others .. this was an excellent cover ... i'm really impressed .. great voice
Did you use a capo? How did you find the chords? Thanks! Very nice cover. You have a wonderful voice.
wow!! I was DEFINATELY not waiting to hear such a good version of Teardrop! Excelent job my friend!
very good! if this is "just a cover", what would we hear when youre writing your own songs? go on!!
I agree, i preferred your version to Jose Gonzales. You give it an Irish feel - but i like it :-)
Wow this made me smile so much : ) I signed in to comment and rate it five stars...I love it : ) x
Beautiful Miss RachelA77 i could just sit back and drift away to this one excellent cover!!x x
Your voice is beautiful, the version of this song is beatiful, you are beutiful...perfect!!!!
u r sooooo talented ... it sounds a little the pocahontas way, but I realy enjoyed it :-D
Congratulations!
A very inspiring and beautiful interpretation of a very difficult song
Go Rachael!! very beautiful..gave me goose bumps hehe..you have such a soothing voice!
Beautiful, thanks for sharing. I liked the subtle changes to suit you, very original!
VERY VERY good job ! i love your voice, you play guitar so well, this is so sweet ^^
Impresionante!!
HERMOSA versión..
Felicidades!
BUHO
Lima Perú
mi sa che quasta ha delle manie di protagonismo...e poi potrebbe anke non fare finta di suonare la chitarra...
i love this song, and this is my first time i saw someone's try of this music.
Hi, thanks Alex, glad you like it. I don't use tab, I picked it up by ear. R
wow i like the way you sing it with the falsetto breaks. you should front a band :D
that is relly great
this is soooo great!!! so much soul in your voice.....breathtaking! amazing!
You are an eye-closer. Why?
Incidentally, I think you have a lovely voice.
Thanks, I'll check that out when I've got my home pc up and running again :)
this I really like, you manage to express the right feeling very powerfully
Thanks, life's hard work sometimes, it's nice to have a little escape :)
much better than the "All i Need version" in my opinion. thx, i like it.
WOW... sounds nice... Its quite a difficult song to sing... nice work!!
i was expecting a horrible cover. Well Done! awesome cover. very good.
martha's harbour pulled me in to you.
this is really good.
you have a gift
Beautiful voice. :)
I love how on "breath" it faded out.
Beautiful.
On a little island in England actually, but Ireland is beautiful :)
and that is right hand corner as in the guitarist's perspective...
Thank you so much, what a great compliment :) Glad you liked it x
Great job. You did the song justice. I'd love to have it on mp3 :)
Very good cover. Captures the "feel" of the original. Top notch!
All the best covers have the least veiws :O
Great cover. :)
To be honest, I like your version better than Jose Gonzales' !!

You have a very nice voice for this song girl!
I like it!
