This was a truly beautiful cover, my mom and I watched it together and it brought tears to both our eyes! You sing with so much emotion and your playing is fantastic as well. I was incredibly moved by this cover, and I hope you post more Sufjan covers in the future. :) Have a great day!
Same here friend. I was trying to sing along to the lyrics and wound up choking up. This version is even more stripped down and beautiful...truly wonderful
Sometimes I feel so- I don’t know - lonely. The kind of helpless feeling when everything you’re used to has been ripped away. Like there’s no more gravity, and I’m left to drift in outer space with no idea where I’m goin. Like a lost satellite.
Frank, this is so beautiful. I have never heard a song so beautifully covered. I can hear your wisdom, your life experiences, and your pain through your voice. It has such an eloquence that pairs so painfully well with this song. I never expected to be moved to tears when I clicked on this. As sad as this song is, your voice gave it a warm embrace that made me feel like I was getting hugged. Thank you for gifting the world through your art. I hope you are well. Thank you.
I choked on a lump in my throat, listening to you sing around yours. This is such a beautiful cover- I can taste the pain in your voice, feel the sorrow in your furrowed brow. I've never heard anything from you before, and I'm so glad this popped into my feed so I could share this moment here. Thank you so much, it's such a beautiful cover
I stumbled upon one of your covers and this has really made my day! You manage to give tribute to the originals while also making them your own in the most amazing way. Thank you!
There's so much truth in this, I can feel the emotions flowing through and connecting to my own feelings, this is so beautiful! I am very happy I found your art
Crazy thing is, I looked you up on Spotify and found your original songs. I didn't expect them to make me cry (since I usually cry with songs that I've known for a while) but they instantly did; which means that the emotions that your music evokes isn't just the fact that you play songs that have been on my heart for long, but the fact that YOU play them.
Teared up while listening to this. My mama’s 1st yr death anniv is approaching.. I love you Mama, you’re with Jesus now and I’ll see you again. I miss you. 🕊
Hi. I was checking RU-vid and discovered your beautiful covers recently, but this song in special made me very emotional. All I can say is thank you for showing the healing power of music in such a hard time for our world. Best regards from Brazil!
Hello again Frank 🌸 last time I mentioned you almost brought me to tears, well this one finally did it. I forgot about Sufjan for a while, I suppose it’s time to dive back into his music. Thanks for another wonderful cover, always looking forward to more 💕
Thank you for sharing this with the world, Frank. Your skill and emotion make this such a fantastic, meaning cover. You are a blessing and your voice made a difference for me today, friend.
Welp, that was one of the most beautiful 3 minutes 20 seconds of my life. I adore what you did with this song. Shifting it to the low register with the simple melodic guitar behind your voice. Affords the song more weight and gives it a new lease of life. Thank you Frank. Beautiful work.
Not everything is about technic and visul perfection, the music resonates so well because you can feel it, and your interpretation is pure feeling, amazing. Brought a tear to my eye.
Everytime I this pops up in my feed, I watch it. You convey so much emotion with your voice, and your expression let's me know that we're both going through it. Thank you sir.
I just found your account and decided to watch your videos, when I randomly decided to watch covers of this song (which i love). Surprisingly, you were the first one that came up 😭my heart is so happy 🥺❤️ thank you!
This is stunningly beautiful, and so sincere. Thank you for sharing something so moving. It's clear that you feel and play music with your whole heart.
Amazing emotion and feeling of deep meaning in every word and note you sound.. gorgeous cover. God bless you sir, may you continue to bless with your talent and heartfelt music
This is the most beautiful cover of Sufjan that I have ever heard/watched. I came across it for the first time last night and probably watched this video a dozen times in a row. Seriously. It's a wonderful interpretation. Here I am again tonight, after putting my 5 year old son to bed, I am watching it over and over again. My dream would be if you sir and Sufjan did a duet of this particular song. I like your other Sufjan covers a lot too, not to mention your covers of other artists, but this one here melts my heart even more than the original, and the original is one of my all-time favorite songs of any music artist.
