    Classic.

    Lots of guitarists have done this, but not one has come CLOSE to matching how incredible this was.
    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V

    I tried to do 'O Canada' and I thought it was ok, but fuck, the emotion he put into that was amazing.

    i always thought that was an amazing version...the sounds of bombs dropping, exposions, ambulances, taps....
    standin above the crowd
    he had a voice that was strong and loud and
    i swallowed his facade cos i'm so
    eager to identify with
    someone above the crowd
    someone who seemed to feel the same
    someone prepared to lead the way
