Acoustic Odds "Whole Of The Moon" Music Video 2020 (cover) 

I just watched this video for the first time and started crying. Didn’t understand why until I realized the song was about my wife who passed three and a half years ago. From the bottom of my heart, thank you for this rendition.

OK. Why am I the only one coming back to this to say how brilliant it is??

At 43 years old you start to think if the youth of today will appreciate the good old classics then boom you stumble across this and just smile don’t worry with people like this around and being born I can’t wait to see what they are going to do next absolute minter

This is perfection! I lost my daughter 3 years ago at the age of 15. She had epilepsy and other special needs, but she experienced life in her short life way more vividly than anyone else I know. I love your version of this song which sums up her precious life. Thank you.

If I can't have this version played at my funeral, I'm not going to die. Simply perfect

This video represents how fucking important proper pubs are. Real pubs with real people doing real things. Well played and well deserved lads. 👏

To even have the balls to cover probably the greatest song ever deserves some credit but to absolutely smash a cover version...Fair play to you lads.

58 year old grumpy old man here.... Faultless performance and perfect video. Stunning cover version. Take a bow lads... Bravo!!!!!

It’s hard not too feel the soul of this song, if you cried , your soul felt the cause the reason too not give up is what is traveling thru your vains and eyes you hear hope and Iam not done crawling I don’t give a fuck if I have too drag us .. but we will not give up.., so fucking brilliant

All I want is to be able to socialise with my mates in the pub. Can't wait for that day to arrive again.

RIP Shaughnessy, miss you mate 😢

Usually hate covers, his voice suits the song so well he made it his own. Always come back to this video 👍🏻

Friday morning in Montevideo, Uruguay. Crying with joy over this version. The warmth of a pub and the power of music are universal.

I agree. Such a diverse, unique song. And, grabbing a few beers and grub with with locals. Sounds like a good night.

Got this on repeat. This cover is simply brilliant. It should be used as a public advert to save the pub trade, it epitomises everything that is great about our fantastic pub trade. Still like the original raw one too 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺

Between 1990 and 1994 I had my best and worst four years at a job as a chef in Scunthorpe at the mallard .I was 16 drunk most nights lock ins juke box blaring out songs like this and oasis stone roses this brings tears to this old mans eyes fabulous guys just awesome Thankyou

Class version . Class setting . It has it all . Pub setting is class also ,, Dart board , Tony Bellow picture, couples , lads , etc. has it all and what a version.

I left England 25 years ago for pastures new, but damn nostalgia is hitting hard now for a good night out at the pub. Beautiful performance, lads. Can't wait to see what else you can do.

Without doubt, one of the very best covers of any song on RU-vid 🙏🏻

Makes me miss a cold pint, sat in a bar with a group of mates having a laugh and putting the world to rights!😮👍😎😊😷

f..... goosegumps!!!...

How this only has c.840k views is such a shame, a perfect performance of a masterpiece of a song. WAKE UP RU-vid

This song really makes me so happy love it

One of my absolute favourites and you did it justice absolutely fantastic 😍

Bravo simply Bravo 👌🏽👏☝🏼

Wtf have I just watched…that was absolutely unbelievable..what a singer

Lost count how many times I've watched this, it's better than the original.

Man. My old man died just as I started loving this song. It now hits so hard. You fellas make me proud to be English

I’ve been a Waterperson over 40 years. Brothers that brought me straight to tears. Thank you 🙏🏻

Love it 😀. But I must admit that I love the version he did half pissed, a little bit more 😀🍻🗣🎤 👌

My daughter is in this video. Top job lads.

How the hell has this song not got a million views yet, wish I was in there with a pint listening and singing along to this..

Don’t know who he is but this version il gold

That's my local, The Three swans. The guy in the high vis is Trash Can Barry. What a guy, nicest guy you'll ever meet 👍

Loved that, well done Gents

That moment when a cover reinterprets an awesome song and makes it even better. Sublime!

Marvellous stuff, chaps. X

That 3 pint sweet spot where everything and everyone is incredible.

Prefer the impromptu version you did a few years back, the guy sitting down harmonising absolutely smashed it... Top lads

Wish I could sing like that. Gives me goosebumps

Best Music Video of the 2020's

The singer and pianist are brilliant,and the guy downing Guiness near the Fosters tap,swinging a hankey was a bloody ripper

The best video on RU-vid by a bloody mile 💯🙏👍🥳🙌💪🌞

My most watched cover on RU-vid. Probably the best to find there 😊🎶🎹

Love To Be Sitting In That Pub Listening To That Song Having a Pint With Ye It moves Me Well Performed Guys xxxxx

I pictured a rainbow You held it in your hands I had flashes But you saw the plan I wandered out in the world for years While you just stayed in your room I saw the crescent You saw the whole of the moon The whole of the moon You were there at the turnstiles With the wind at your heels You stretched for the stars And you know how it feels To reach too high Too far Too soon You saw the whole of the moon I was grounded While you filled the skies I was dumbfounded by truths You cut through lies I saw the rain-dirty valley You saw Brigadoon I saw the crescent You saw the whole of the moon I spoke about wings You just flew I wondered, I guessed and I tried You just knew I sighed But you swooned I saw the crescent You saw the whole of the moon The whole of the moon With a torch in your pocket And the wind at your heels You climbed on the ladder And you know how it feels To get too high Too far Too soon You saw the whole of the moon The whole of the moon Unicorns and cannonballs Palaces and piers Trumpets, towers, and tenements Wide oceans full of tears Flags, rags, ferry boats Scimitars and scarves Every precious dream and vision Underneath the stars Yes, you climbed on the ladder With the wind in your sails You came like a comet Blazing your trail Too high Too far Too soon You saw the whole of the moon

OMG, wow just magical

I love the Waterboys (have 7 of their CDs) and been listening to them since the early 80s. I've heard many covers, and own several (none of which I listen too), but your cover gave me goose bumps! And you did that with only two voices and a piano! Thank You!

superb these are top top voice! proper goosebumps!!!! proper salt of the earth people enjoying life! Living ! Just Not Existing !

I've been hearing this song since it came out, but have never listened to the words till today. Outstanding performance.

I saw the whole of the moon . Waht a legendary performance!! 🎉

Superb cover version.👏👏👏👏👏

Gorgeous.

One day soon we can be together again... We need contact so much... Miss you all so much, see you all soon... So we can see the whole of the moon together 🙏.. Brilliant cover guys 👏👏👏

Superb 🙌🎉👏👏💯🔊🎶🎵👍🍻

Not even the original is better than this !!! Absolutely flipping amazing

I used to drink in this pub years ago, Chris the landlord is a top man.

Simply Amazing. My old mate Ronnie 2 Dogs O,sullivan would walk straight into the pub after work and put this on the Juke Box God Bless him and god bless you for your Brilliant version of one of my favorite songs ever.

What an amazing cover !! Means more to me n hits me harder than the original

I got here from watching the other version where they were playing this song live in the pub. I 've obviously heard the song before (although I'm an oldie) but just didn't realise how good it sounds live and what a great job, really enjoyed it.

What a show.. nailed it.. keep it on youtube.. what a performance

Can’t stop playing this!! ❤

Cool fact:- The singer doesn’t actually drink at all he’s t-total!! Just holds a red wine 🍷 as a salute to his favourite singer ‘simply red’

Good stuff lads ...you can chase it but you wont beat your original one. The first one had unscripted brilliance.

The live version wasn't perfect. But it was real and perfect in it own way. Still playing it. Thank you. I wish I was there!

When the moon is out I always look up & say 'hello lad U dad still here in Amsterdam'.!!..U guys make remembering easier..keep on keepin' on...Peace.!!!

What pub is this. Love the boxing memorabilia. Amazing cover

I've been watching your first version of this on repeat for the last month. Cheers from across the pond!

April 1st 2021 I've had 6 people die on me in the last few months. Sad yes.... But more importantly they were struggling souls and I bonded with them ....because I have no one left in my life.. no fiends no family a 1 person soul. I guess I bonded with those beautiful people I met and they made complete just for a brief short time. I am blessed. Rip Larry- Chris- Dave- Aussie- Joe- and my humble friend. Thanks for blessing me with your struggles!

Damn. You nailed it even better as your first version of this great song. Shivers down my spine. Hope to see you once live singing. Greetings from the Netherlands.

Spot on!

I don't half miss our pub culture.

Nearly 130k love you guys can't wait to see what's comming

Beautiful... The song, the performance and the video itself... Just watching those people sitting around drinking, talking, laughing, listening.. Different ages, shapes, sexes and sizes.... This epitomises the British pub and what a wonderful institution it is... Well done lads.

Messaged you lot when I was pissed before and I'm pissed again. This was me and my wife's walking down the aisle song and I only heard it 1/2 months before the wedding, but you know perfection when you hear it. Will be coming to see you live in 2022

This song should be played in every pub when they open🍻🍻.Brilliant guys absolutely class👍

Awesome. This should be the national campaign video to say let's all follow the rules, get this lockdown done with asap so we can go back to this on a Saturday afternoon

Oh my God, how very beautiful!

When I’m feeling low I just play this at full volume ......my spirit soars

I love how he sings "Crescent". His annunciation is beautiful throughout the whole song

Widnes pub love this

I love this song

It was a pleasure meeting you today at work in liverpool soverign, glad i checked you out on here, great cover that you made your own, nice one matey, Dave and Marcus 👍

One man and a piano. Simply beautiful version of what was an awesome song. And taken to another level.. Definitely my favourite version ever of this sing. Just... BRILLIANT!!!!

Stunning. I'm flooded with tears. For a guy and musician like me, that takes a heavy lot to do to me. These guys are the top g. The video is simple but genius. I had the odd night in Glasgow like that in my young years. Reminded me of that joy music can create anywhere

Total class, so so many memories, so many mixed emotions, awesome feeling listening to this version,

Just had to watch this again, it’s like a choir has strolled into a pub by accident, has a glass of wine & sings like a fucking Angel. Just love it.

Absolutely superb boys. Was listening to this earlier in the year when my mate suddenly passed away. It really resonated with me as the lyrics had a connection and summed him up. So it’s kind of like his song now. Thank you for posting this amazing cover. Sang with real conviction. Love it👍❤️

Holy shit....What an amazing voice !!!!!!!

Bravo, guys. Such heart.

If there is really singing in Heaven, I’m assuming it sounds like this. Because…damn!! Bravo my friend. Bravo! New fan!!!😮

The version of this song is absolutely amazing. Well done guys. Between the video, the music and singing feel many emotions. Powerful,powerful stuff.👏👏👏👏

I generally don't like out of tune pianos, but for some reason this old pub relic, which i'm sure is loved just seems to add to the melody. Love it!

Deserves a record deal and release this version

Masterpiece that is.. take a bow

I rarely comment on videos, but this needed to be said.. That was absolutely superb, I loved the original cover you did and this was just as good if not better. Props to you both

I think I'm obsessed, I miss singalongs with my buddies. This put a proper smile on my face

There's nothing to dislike about this, beautiful sentiment, real as it comes. I hope these guys go all the way.

Outstanding performance,there...the british are natural,born artists...

You need your break. Got pure talent.
