    Thanks for posting. Unfortunately, I found the song pretty painful to listen to because the singer doesn't seem to get the emotional mindset of the song and then put those emotions back into the song. I'm not asking him to be Vedder, but rather to do more than go through the motions. My two cents.

    hey, no worries, i totally get that no one can sing/emote it like ed. in fact, i'd even go out on a limb and say that i have not heard any cover of any pj song that i thought was better than pj's. except maybe willie's ;)

    daniel's got a great cool vibe and it's especially nice to see him praise the mighty pj. i never knew he was a fan and have been a fan of daniel's for over 5 years.

    Pretty good cover. I prefer the verses and bridge to the chorus in his version though. His take on the chorus sounds like if Not For You was on Backspacer if that makes any sense.
