- There is a long story to this one, but in a few words , this was requested by Mike who is seriously ill and was about to have an operation that had a good chance of not making it through, he sent me an extremely weak voicemail after because he had to let me know that he made it, so i sent him this , his wife messaged me to say thank you as it has made his day, i can only hope now that he starts to beat this illness.
Reminds me of when youtube first started... No ads, no selling things, no drama just people doing what they love and sharing it with the world.
But there was an ad….
@@sirownzalotgaming3025shhh
Absolutly fuck yea dude
@@sirownzalotgaming3025 A youtube ad, Which you can't prevent from airing on your videos, even if you're not monetizing them. But most people don't see them anyway, because of ad blocker.. He was referring to ads embedded into the video.
I think they're clamping down on the adblockers now.Recently started getting notices to say I can't use UA-cam with the adblocker, but I installed NoScript and it's largely taken away the message bur it still pops up every now and then @@619Vital
The most devastating cover ever! Somebody should tell SOAD about this amazing performance!
You should come down to India and perform here in Bangalore!
Yes
Seriously!!!
I was thinking the exact same thing!! I think they’d LOVE IT
?
This is Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt level of power and quality .Well done!
Yes! I had the same thought immediately.
I thought the exact same thing!
With all respect to Johnny, this one is better.
Soad покинул чат...
Não, esta é a aura de Frank Watkinson!
Crazy how this actually is better than a proffesionaly produced song
I dont think its better than original… Its just differents and that it is.
I like it better than the original because rather than showing off musical talent, he's just singing from his heart and it makes the lyrics feel much more real and close to home. The original is great but my gut feeling is that this song just seems to make more sense being sung this way. @@EizoPowa
@@toothboto1719 Amen brother🙏🏻
@@toothboto1719Exactly, well said!
You know how many drugs system of a down were probably on when they produced that song
It was good for its time But as we listen to it over and over it makes 1 guy playing it differently and more sad emotions to make you think its better but I agree with the other guy its just different but hats off for making a good cover
protect this man at all costs
Agreed
Yes.
Yeah
and for all time
Yes
Sir, you made the song even sadder than it was. This is the best version I've ever never listen❤
Agreed 💯…. “Take your hand and walk away” was so real / concerning / relatable
its so freaking sad i dont even know what to do with myself anymore
man up @@thatboihideki1184
Makes people feel it
You can hear the sorrow in voice, but see the pain in his face...
💜🫶🏻🩵 the most loneliest day of my life 7/3/2006 buried my youngest son. Beautifully done, good Sir.
Its breaking me to hear, but a legend could only be a legend when it leaves the earthly state behind....and still i fear theday my dad will go
@@Skankhunt-jy2zu Bless you friend, I feel your pain. I'm 44yro & have already buried my youngest son 06/ my daddy in 20 12/ my fiance in 20 17/ and my mother in 20 19. I have ALL of Heaven backing me 🫶🏻 Just remember they do Live on through us! Love & Honor them while They are still here.
@@acemaner6027 but damn bro 44 is no age, life will always hold a hand full water under your keel.
Sounds weird but its actually a stoneaged german sailor-saying
I'm sorry for ur loss.
heartbreaking 😥
42 y/o man, and you got my eyes watering…
You sing with your heart, and hits hard.
This is like Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt. Simply brilliant sir
lol oh man I basically just finished writing that
@@GeeMorno same
It's nearly the perfect comparison.
I think in this.
I thought the same thing, and felt the same way.
I dunno, he seems pretty fine to me
Hurt had power because Cash had lived those emotions, seems more like this guy is just putting in a shift don't feel any real emotion in his words at all
He is not singing , he lives the song . Never heard something so heart breaking and warming at the same time
_only facts_
Agree. And try "Hurt" by Johny Cash
Exactly. This is one of my all time favorite songs and has so much meaning to me. His arrangement of this song was just so beautiful.
Heart*
@@sirownzalotgaming3025 thx
This gives me such a Johnny Cash vibe, and it’s wonderful. SOAD has been my favorite band for years and this song is so beautifully done.
Great work as always ❤❤❤
If Leonard Cohen covered “Lonely Day” it would sound like this. Breathtaking, chilling, exquisite, bravo sir!!!
I'm a 23 year old kid. I dated 5 years and was married 3 with this girl. She took her own life a year ago. Only the nostalgic feeling of this man, who could easily be my grandfather can describe my sadness. God knows there's a lot of sorrow behind your eyes sir. You make me cry with that beautiful cover. God bless you.
Holy shit, that is probably one of the most horrific things ive ever heard of. I feel unlimited sorrow for you and hope you're safe wherever you are.
Please be safe and try to make everyday a blessing (this coming from somebody that isn't religious). I feel your pain Fam. Just survive your grief as best you can Friend.
God bless you and may her soul rest in peace
I'm so sorry you've felt so much pain so early in your life. Please don't give up on life. It gets better. ❤
dude, bullshit
please let’s give this man more visuals, he just made a death metal fan cry
whats unusual in it? Death metal is basicly made for emo kids
@@LegitimateCockroachyour name speaks volumes. I hope one day you see yourself in a brighter light.
@@Bambingobongo u cant deny im right
@@LegitimateCockroach okay then I will, Black metal is for emo's death is for goth's, symphonic doom is for ravers. haha
ain't no way you're calling soad death metal 💀
Extremely emotional performance. Well done, Frank. Stay healthy.
I'm a life long fan of SOAD. You done this song justice sir. Well done. Thank you.
You made this 29 year old metal fan cry, this is so god damn beautiful in such a somber way.
❤
Same here, but 28
I'm almost 45 and I'm also a metal head and this definitely was powerful.

check out his cover of snuff by slipknot..
My brother passed away when he was 18 years old. This song always reminds me of the day he left us. Thank you for this beautiful version. Rest in peace my brother.
When did it happen? If may ask
he may rest in peace
may ur brother rest in peace, whoever lives in people hearts and thoughts, never really leaves us.
Same
fly high, rip.
its 1:05am. i am sitting here absolutely bawling to this. i cant stop crying what an amazing cover. what a talent.
Love, LOVE, L O V E THIS SO MUCH!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤
Frank, I may be wrong in this assumption, but i feel like this hits you closer to home than some may realize. If thats the case, we're here for you. I think i speak for everyone here, all 591,000 of us, thank you. We love you. Seeing you sing reminds me of my late grandpa singing my different hymns that he sang for church, and for that i want to personally say thank you.
This was a really really deep reproduction of the song
Hello, my guitar cover😉🎸 ua-cam.com/video/mkD-LOagXFs/v-deo.htmlsi=taSu9CwBdoXwqwXt
Felt the same. Hope he's doing fine.

This is beautiful. Lou Reed meets Johnny Cash. A bit of H.I.M. in there as well.
The amount of amazing artists that aren’t famous is crazy. Such talent. What a beautiful interpretation, still captures the core emotion.
Yea, loads of engineers responsible for incredible infrastructure that had problems you can't even imagine never went famous either.
@@elpepe3292stupid!
pointless comment@@archaeologistify
The day my grandfather passed away was the loneliest day of my life. I remember hearing this sad song and others, but this one in particular described how I felt. Your interpretation has left me speechless, I have simply been moved to tears, I can only say thank you, because despite being a sad song in a certain way it comforts my soul. Sorry if my English is bad, I'm Mexican, your biggest Mexican fan since today.
thanks for donating to thus legend!
Thank you.
Mi abuelo falleció hace un par de semanas y casualmente me encuentro con este hermoso cover. De principio a fin me recordó a él. Que bonito haberme encontrado tu comentario también🙆🏻♂
I'm sorry for your loss. It looks like your family has raised up some great people. Take care out there in this world and surround yourself by those who love you.
Lo siento mucho 😢
Just a man, his voice, guitar, and a passion to share his love for music.
Refreshing.
Absolutely beautiful. It’s incomparable with the original not just because it’s a different style but it’s just so damn good. Your playing brought a tear to my eye yet a smile on my face. Not many talented musicians these days, you’re one of the few talented ones.
This reminds me of Johnny Cash covering Hurt.
Lost my girlfriend recently to suicide and I've never wanted to belt the words of a song out more than listening to this. Thank you for providing this. ❤
I am very sorry for your loss, that must be incredibly hard. I am so glad you find some solace in music.
Dude.... Im so so sorry for your loss
I hope you can find the power to go on and proceed in life... She's not dead, she's still with you and lives with you, be strong as that's how she'd want you to be
Bless you m8 🙏
Hey man. I lost my wife to suicide 5 years ago. That shit is brutal. It wasn't your fault, though some absolute cockwombles will tell you otherwise. They should drink bleach. I know I don't know you don't know me, but I feel that pain and I got your back. You're gonna pull through, but it won't be easy. Hang tough.
@@792slayer you don`t actualy know the story behind it. It could possibly be his fault
It's a day I'm glad I survived so I could hear you sing again, thank you for this cover Frank, your voice over such a sad song is really soothing, love you ❤️
I self wallow in this song since I lost my teenage daughter to murder August 9th 2015. Your rendition is heartfelt and beautiful.
So sorry to hear that.
@@FrankWatkinson Thank you, my friend. Also, thank you so much for this this beautiful relaxing music. I'm in love with your voice and your guitar playing. I'm a piano player. 🫶
Respect.
What a great, special cover from you, Sir Mr. Watkinson.
You are a great musician.
All the best, good health and thank you for this sensitive interpretation of this song.
Greetings also to the sweet cat.
Please share the HELL outta this song! Let’s get him to a million subscribers. Dude can earn retirement cash by being the badass that he is! I’ve followed him for several years now and he always hits that low-low nerve when you’re just going through something rugged that no human should have to bear. This man is a treasure. Thank you, Frank, for all that you are!
Hell yes! Frank is amazing!
I am chronically ill and also dying. Before I ever read the description, you'd already perfectly expressed the emotion you were trying to communicate to your friend. That's incredible and I'm positive that he was moved by it.
Prayers for you - depending on what condition you have there may be hope, never give up. I can tell you one thing, your will to live and positivity is stronger than you know and Jesus works miracles if you call to him with a pure heart.
Least edgy anime pfp person
May I ask your condition?
Cap! Just a lil boy that read the description and wanted a taste of clout. 🧢 No one in that situation would start off with I'm chronically ill oh yea I'm also dying 🤦♂️
Lol bye then
You are truly a gift sir. I can hear your life thru your voice. Thank you for this keyhole. I cherish you.
This man should record an album of covers.
My heart dropped when you started singing. I felt that pain deep inside, but it was beautiful. I lost my best friend to suicide a 4 years ago. You made my sadness beautiful. That’s not easy to do, so I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your song.
I lost the love of my life to suicide 5 years ago. I saw her die and I couldn't stop it. I know your pain. It wasn't your fault.
@@792slayer ❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹
Wow that's really hard to read, 😢 keep strong!!!
@@phenomenal_pr13 I can't speak for the OP, but I got married a week ago to a lovely woman who also lost her mate. Things are turning around. Bad don't last forever.
@@792slayer wow I wish you the best of love. And very true, all that remains is to live day by day and be better every day and do good.
July 29th 2021 was the most lonely day of my life. The day started off with me screaming for someone to help, my wife was dying in my arms. The day ended with me sitting in an empty house crying and contemplating joining her. That day replays in my head every day, the most loneliest day of my life. Thank you brother, that version made me feel the pain in the lyrics. You sir are and treasure.
I'm sorry for your loss.
I'm happy you are still with us. I hope you've found peace.
Hope you are feeling better mate.
i would definitely join my wife if she departs this world early
I'm sorry to hear, I hope things have gotten easier ❤
Essa versão realmente faz qualquer pessoa chorar. Tem mais tristeza e melancolia que a original. Simplesmente fenomenal! Parabéns
When you forget to tell grandpa happy birthday.
sim aqui esta o comentário brasileiro que voce tava procurando... o coroa realmente provocou arrepios que voz poderosa!

First the title and then the doggo leaving him in the first seconds, it is perfect. Thank you so much for this cover
The dog is like, “It is Go Time.”
Wow... just... wow. Wasn't expecting it to be carried with all this emotion
SOAD's fan... And Johnny Cash's fan... Thanks for bringing them together! Understand who can...
This guy's cover of Snuff is even more heartfelt. So encouraging to see newer music still speaks through generations. I hope he's doing well.
Oh that would amazing. I’ll have to look up his cover of snuff
My jaw dropped on your first word you sang. God bless you and your gift sir. Thank you for sharing it with all of us.
me too! im watching it with my son to watch guitar videos and on the first word involuntarily shouted 'ooh this man can sing!' haha
I don't know how to write well in english, but...this man is on another level..
Dear Frank,
I've been listening to you for sometime now and I find myself here daily listening to you while fighting my demons. Listening to you really changes my mood and gives me hope in life. I've been trying to find the right form of expression to how your music feels to me but i don't know if this is gonna make sense so here you go.
It's like a grandad feeling telling his grandson that don't worry, life is gonna be okay. It's a feeling when everything is coming down in a single go but you're here telling us not to worry. Its a feeling where I feel like I have just had a deep and meaningful conversation with you on how to get back on track and you have shared with me your experience with life and its ups and downs. And most importantly, it feels like I've known you my entire life and while I come across many people in life, I can still open up to you and tell you my struggles.
I'm not sure if what I say makes sense but I feel like i am struggling with life and my mental setbacks while here you are comforting me. I always find myself back here especially on a bad day. And this is the therapy that I always needed.
It's your emotions and the way you express when singing. It gives me nostalgia of all the good memories from the past, the sadness of the lately and a hopeful future to look forward to.
I can't believe I am actually saying this but you just being you on UA-cam is therapeutic for me.
Thank you sir for this!
You are welcome.
My grandpa died when i was ten. The thing that connected us both was music. He helped me fall in love with learning to play musical instruments, and right now i'm learning how to play guitar. I stumbled onto your channel a while ago, and i just wanna say how much you remind me of my kind, lovely grandpa. Thank you so much for doing what you do. You make this word a better place, and i love you.
Thank you.
Mine died last week, this account is his actually. He was like a second father to me
Молодец дед!,от души!
You can tell this man has been through some things by the pain in his words. Great job!
The algorithm recommended this for me, and I just assumed it was going to be comedy. Nope, total other direction. Your version of this song is amazing and put me in tears.
We all really need to make this man much more seen.
He takes these songs that we all love and puts such a beautiful calming glow on to them.
Seems to bring out the meaning of the song so much.
Totally agree 💯
Word.
You said it better than I could've
And I've spent the last 15 minutes trying
This cover is not only a cover, it's a master piece.
It makes me remind of my beloved grandfather that passed away due to cancer in 2017.
It also makes me think about our future as younger generations, will we be still surrounded by our beloved people or will we be alone when we are olders?
What a bittersweet experience you have done, Frank, congratulations.
❤
Your gonna be alone. Sorry to be depressing but I'm 39 I've lost both my parents and I have no one left to help and watch over me. That was and still is the loneliest day of my life!!!! I love you Mom and Dad
Probably will be alone as many are. Its how life works and not everyone has big lifespans. As time goes by, many go and the ones that last live a lonely life.
It's been almost two years since the last time I saw my family. Three and a half years in a foreign contry enduring loneliness with my faithful companions: my dog and my plants. It was a tough year and I've kind of forced myself not to cry, but your interpretation of this song really hit the spot.
Thanks, man. You've got a new Colombian follower.
Came on to UA-cam to check something quick for work. Came across this & now tearing up. A touching cover.
What a great cover! You sang with pure emotion... Just one guitar, a camera, no autotune, no bullshit... I wish there would be more covers like this. Other UA-cam musicians are just trying to hard and are still not close to your level.
Cool to see an old timer rocking this song. I’m sure he knows more about what it means to be lonely than a lot of the young kids that love this song.
This gives me Johnny Cash - Hurt vibes, and it's beautiful. I need to learn to play your version.
This is not a man, that's a heavenly sent musician
Из уст этого господина данная песня звучит ещё более одиноко, чем даже в оригинальном исполнении. Видимо ещё у каждого впереди самый одинокий день в его жизни. Браво
Amen brother.
my grandfather just passed away. You remind me of him, so i've been watching your videos lots. thank you so much for sharing your beautiful voice with the world ❤️
Please never stop playing music for the Internet. ❤
I just wanna sit with this man and listen to him at 2am.
My Grandpa just passed away this weekend and I'm struggling. Been listening to your version of this song all day and it's really helping me through the emotions. Thank you for all your beautiful music!
From now on, I’m your biggest fan from Russia. You made me cry, considering I’m 17 years old. I feel the pain in your voice like you’ve been through something really sad and experienced this "The most loneliest day of my life"...
I wish you all the best, Frank Watkinson
Honestly seeing this man’s videos are beautiful. The emotion when he sings, how calm and smooth the playing is. And how perfect each song sounds is absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing this.
Now i need a cheerful cover of this man to know that his life is happy and not as sad as this song. You know for my mental being.
I'm happy don't worry .
This is how it sounds when words and lyrics are coming from the heart👌
Never did I think a cover could make me feel the same way as the original. And you didn't fear to make it your own while still sticking to its roots.
Man! I don't have words for these... I feel with ya
didn't think this song could get any better, you've got an amazing way of singing the song and making it your own, much love man
I'm not crying, you are.
Sir, you're so good at singing.. My entire heart is melting oh my goodness gracious
Never expected to hear you cover System of a Down, I love it! If you ever intend on covering anything else by SOAD I'd love to hear your take on their Roulette, I feel like that song would fit your style very well.
I can't say whether I'm surprised Mr Frank covered a SOAD song or not since his cover of Slipknot's Snuff is what brought me to his channel and wonderful music!
I was surprised when I found him covering old 90s garage bands...
These days I'm less surprised that he covered SOAD and more more surprised at his ability to pick which songs to cover over and over.
@@jangles1839 Me just now

Nice job man, i want hear your voice again AND LOUDER!!

This is a special song to me, I was listening to it on repeat after my brother died. This version is very beautiful and haunting.
as someone who's struggled with suicidal depression, this song means a lot to me. this is an amazing cover. you are truly gifted. thank you so much for this.

As a big soad fan, this was amazing! Hope the band members see this
The best and saddest cover. Make me cry all the time. keep going
I could feel real emotion coming through this video. This brought tears to my eyes, incredible!
You made us all freeze in time for a moment, regain perspective, stopped right here, inhale deep.
Hats off Sir. We love you
This is officially my favourite version. You always put so much heart and soul into your arrangements.
Senhor, sou do Brasil. Eu puder sentir esse sentimento universal que você colocou em cada nota, cantada e tocada por suas mãos e voz. Agradeço demais. 😢❤
This is beautifully done! It makes SOAD palatable to my girlfriend
Old man has a soul that's seen too much. Thank you for the beautiful song sir. One that I play when I'm feeling down
This caught me completely off-guard. Having a rough time atm and this cover is so full of emotions. Love your work, Frank
Just gained yourself a fan. 20 years old and this song is a song ive always resonated with, but your version actually has brought me to tears. The sheer pain in your voice and emotion in playing and singing has me literally shaking, sir. I wish you good health, and happier days to come.
Me hiciste llorar de emoción! Amé tu versión de una increíble canción. Muchas gracias ❤
I'm not crying you're crying! Thank you for this beautiful rendition ❤
Настолько чувственный и трогательный, что невозможно не проронить слезу.. Спасибо за Ваше чудесное исполнение!❤
Somehow you made this song even deeper and more emotional. Like!
Wow, real amazing work man this brought tears to my eyes. You’re very talented. Happy new years 🫶
I just lost my dad last week, and this song just hit me hard. Thanks for the amazing video
So much emotion into this cover. This really reminds me of Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt by NIN. I could see myself genuinely listen to this whenever i feel down or alone. Hope you're well and excellent cover ❤
I want to thank youtube for pointing me to this work of art, here we can clearly see that this gentleman sings from the heart
I have had such a love for SOAD and this song always makes me tear up but I don’t think I’ve ever been in so much awe with how you sang it. Thank you ❤
Reminiscent of the Johnny Cash, Hurt cover. The same depth and feeling that comes with old age and wisdom.
Edit: I have to add, this is the first time this song gave me goosebumps. ❤ My Dad has Alzheimer's and this song is what I think he feels everyday. 💔 It breaks me.
I am tearing up. That was the most soulful rendition of this song I have ever heard. Beautifully performed.
you are amazing for this!! i've always loved soad and i always feel for this song💗💗
first video i came across of yours frank, not seeing its upload date clicked on your profile and first seeing one called something along the lines of 'this may be my last video' was extremely happy to see you still with us and providing us with your wonderfully amazing covers! You have a voice that makes you feel something deeper down than the original
