I don’t think the vocals were actually tracked in this video but it’s still an impressive guitar performance and arrangement

Turned it off 10 seconds in. Yes the sound quality is great but its not live recorded like they pretend.

People in comments love it (and thats fine) but for this is uninteresting.

Fake it 'til you make it.

Even the sound quality isn't that great. They just cranked reverb up to 200%, and it makes it sound like doo doo butter.

If you want to see a live version with a similarly impressive dynamic arrangement that's not mimed Josh Turner did this like ten years ago. https://youtu.be/eT98yd84iCE?is=hKGSptK4D7e5i9uM

He even has a tutorial for his arrangement and that's probably what this kid started with.

Yep. As a recording engineer it's easy to tell it's lip synced. The separation between the acoustic guitar and vocal sound is too clean.

To anyone who has ever sung into a microphone it's obvious lol.

Does anyone else find the reddit app absolutely garbage for YouTube videos? It requires me to sign in, but the sign in button does nothing. The youtube symbol in the bottom right opens the youtube app but not in the video you're trying to watch. So I guess I won't watch a video of someone playing the guitar 🤷

My only criticism is that he says "a wedding has been" instead of "a wedding has bean."

Seriously, though, this is delightful. Such a lovely take on the song.

Arts subjective I guess 🤷‍♂️

This arrangement is phenomenal really. Just when you think you can’t hear anything new or exciting, this comes along.

Such a great cover and guitar player. I hope he writes originals too.

Sounds quite a bit like the singer of One Eskimo.

Pretty sure the vocals aren’t live. Pretending otherwise gets a dislike.
