As someone who loves not only Faith No More (and Angel Dust in particular) but also acoustic music in the folky realm and also does some covers I can do nothing but love this. Awesome! Didn't think it was possible to do a working acoustic rendition of this song. Subscribed right away and am looking forward to the rest of the songs!
What I love about all the FNM covers is that Patton has such a unique voice and these versions really do justice to that. It's not just great instrumentals. Perfect again!!
Man, I love your FNM covers. I'm hoping that you're on Spotify. I'll find out in a minute or two. I'll be sharing your channel to my fellow children of the 90s. I realised whilst I was watching this, that your decision to make the visuals this way is so much better than the decisions you may have abandoned.
I have to get this off my chest. You look like Tim Kalpakis if he had a more normal head shape. Otherwise, fantastic cover. I'm blown away by the amount of Patton covers you do, including seemingly the entire Angel Dust catalogue. Hats off to you, sir.
I had to google Tim Kalpakis to see who he is. Turns out he's my brother so I guess it's not weird that we look the same. Sorry I had to google you, Tim. See you at mom and dad's for Easter.
Lyrics should be “Warm rolls, sweet talk, caffeine” Patton wrote the song after staying up for days as an experiment. Saying he would wake up and do his normal routine to try to trick his brain into thinking he slept. AKA rolls and coffee in the morning.
I always thought it was "warm words" lol. Going back and listening closer, it is indeed "almost", but it sounds different because he's putting extra oomph into it. The last word of the song is also "almost" so he did get that one thing wrong in the cover. Still a great performance of a difficult song to do in a folky, acoustic style.
