Like she’s covering the lead, drums, harmonics, guitar AND vocals on a single acoustic guitar. That’s amazing!

I think I might be the only commenter that doesn’t like this cover and doesn’t think it’s anywhere close to top talent either.

The cover version doesn’t have anywhere close to the energy the song needs, and in trying to cover all the parts of the song with one instrument some of those parts are compromised beyond recognition. It’s like ragtime for guitar, but shitty.

And as far as talent goes, she’s not exactly Preston Reed.

Ho-hum, bring on the downvotes.

🤷‍♂️
