So Far Away - Avenged Sevenfold (Acoustic Cover) 

That lightning out the window is The Rev's spirit reaching out to you bro

This guy is very talented damn!

2:45 I got chills, seriously impressive

If Avenged Sevenfold hasn’t heard this cover by now I’d be SHOCKED.

The Rev would be proud man. Here my grown man ass is sitting here getting almost emotional as the day he died. This is perfect man. 🙏🏻

You confused the lyrics a little, but the singing and playing are great, this song made me cry at tough times and you did a good cover of it, keep at it.

Hey don't listen to the people that are calling you fat. It doesn't matter how the outside looks, the inside matters. Also, you are doing great. Keep going like that man! Greetings from Greece!

Hey everyone! Thanks so much for taking the time too watch this video! I hope you all enjoy and keep an eye out for new content!

I listen to this song imagining a life that I didn't live. I would love to had friends and good memories of them :(

Bruh he’s actually like freaking amazing!!!! I aspire to sound like that one day!!!😱

Genuinely felt like saluting you at 3:51 an amazing cover. 10/10

4:34 back in the window there's thunder, roaring to this kid

Whose watching this PHENOMENAL cover in 2020!!

Buddy this is absolutely amazing I love it, you're so talented!! But this world is full of haters who are jealous because they can never do what you're doing but don't let them phase you.. just keep doing what you're doing brotha 👍🏽👍🏽🎸 mad respect from me dude!!

"Dear god" Please please please!!!

2019 I still listen to your cover.

5:12 when i stub my toe trying to shuffle

As a personal message to you: I love your videos so much: I love that you are open about your faith aswell. This song is so dear to me, as my best friend killed himself 2 years ago... And this is probably the best cover I've heard of it. But after he died it was so hard to keep up with Jesus, and I think you are like a message from God, as you did this very song. Thank you so much for all the videos you do :)

SNUFF BY SLIPKNOT PLZ

Man I literally CRY, your voice is so powerfull Keep going !

2019 and I think this is one of the best covers I heard.. Thank you..

I watched this cover few years ago and I had a goosebumps, now watched again and I feel the same like few years ago, this cover is so beautiful ...

Avenged sevenfold would be so proud to have him sing that song on stage with them for one time

Three years ago, I was envious of you being able to play it. Today I am proud that I can do it too

Amazing good luck from indonesian 2019 i keep listen

Seeing this cover 9 years later, very well done!

Wow! That lightning while he was playing the last part was so dramatic!🎤😍🎸

I still come back to this kid’s videos ever now and then. I love the soul he puts into his covers.

please do hero of war by rise against!♥

Hey everyone thanks so much for enjoying this cover! If you'd like to hear any of my own original music here is the link to my spotify account. I would gladly appreciate it if you would give it a follow! .spotify.link/OQYaNEIhKCb

What a powerful voice you have bro, the rev is smiling in heaven.

Hey man! I hope you'll get to reading this, I love your covers, you are incredibly talented! (: my brother was killed in a motorcycle accident in 2014, and this is the song I always remember him by, and I love the way you did it! I am a fellow Christian, my dad is a pastor in New Mexico and I play with the worship team there, if at all possible I think it'd be a wonderful fellowship to do a song with you! I've played piano almost all my life, anyway get back to me 😊

the rev must be happy even though he's gone nice cover jon paul i like you my man

So many years and im still loving this cover dude

You can see by the way he perform, this guy live with music..true musician he is

Great job and incredible holding those high notes together! Wish I could hit those! Little suggestion. I know this is your version but IMO it sounds way better the way they do that bridge "Sleep tight I'm not afraid" like they do. Chords as follows: E major like you start with, C, Am, then you eded it the same with the G, F#/D. Great cover!

Respect bro from a fellow musician :) You did a great cover, I really enjoyed.! Loved it...! All the best!

Very impressive! Nice to see a kid without a cell phone in front of his face or a game controller in his hand, Keep it up!!!

Hi jon! I was having a hard time today at college due to the pressure of internals in 2 weeks and it was driving me crazy. I came upon your video and it made me feel soo much better and less streesed. Such a beautiful voice you have. Thank you. Music has a wondrous effect on the soul🙏

2:44 omg piel de gallina!!

The rev is in your heart man

Hey man so glad to have met you in person at Speaking Rock! Music has a funny way of bringing people together. Again, thanks for making music like this and putting your soul into it, got me through some rough times. Looking forward to Gunslinger!!!

Brother when you open up and hit those highs and belt it out you've got it, great cover keep doing your thing

i love how you sing so effortlessly. It makes it so much more real. ( if that makes sense ) your guitar skills are incredible! i wish i could play like that. Avenged Sevenfold would be proud!

This kid knows how to convey the feelin in the song

This is awesome! Love it!!!! Also the lightnings in the background so sick :D

this kid got talent, Dont let anyone stop you from achieving what you want.

I’ve been on a A7X binge lately and I’ve been obsessed with so far away since I saw their live acoustic cover, man this one is legendary

Damn! That was great! Keep it up. Thank you, and greetings from Lapland!

youtube betrayed me for recommending me this video just this year :( anwyay, awesome man!! i'm sure the rev's rocking with you bro!

RU-vid recommendations are getting better

Your voice is so good. I love this. Thank you for cover this song 🥺

finally youtube recommends something really amazing, good job bro

Subscribed, brother. This proves that talent isn't based on physical appearance. RESPECT.

Your voice is amazing!

Damn i get goosebumps in the last part bro😲 -from the Philippines your no.1 fan😎🤘

Thanks for keeping that spirit alive. Jimmy would love it.

I under estimated this video, but this dude is crazy man! Just because of this video I learned this song! You inspired me brother, and you sing amazing, keep up the great work man true inspiration 🔥👌👌

Your voice fits for chill bars and diners You should try singing there with a guitar case below you for people who want to tip you. Your call though, that's just some advice. And great job on that screaming part :D Great talent bro! You're so blessed.

you are so FUCKIN incredible bro. Made my day.

bro i was blown away when he got to the pre solo… the whole time i was thinking that he was pretty good but when he got there and started belting i was like DAMN

FULL OF ENERGYC

4:14 that was clean. Nice

3:53 amazing

Dude , that was awesome , Rev would be proud

Very nice! The lightning in the background really enhanced the video. I love So far away. My mom passed away right around the same time this song was released. It really resonated with me at that time and pretty much said what I was feeling at the time.

Damn you can play and sing

weren't you the dude on Americas got talent? you are talented btw

Hey Jon, Another cover and another comment, you nailed this one for me, powerful enough for me to have to rip off my headphones during the bridge. I also think you may have a certain drummer looking over your shoulder cause just as you were going into the bridge there was a pretty big lightning bold outside. I'm not really religious but i do believe in rock n roll heaven and i think the Rev loved what you did here. well done my friend.

Man. That is serious. Great job dude.

This is just fantastic, I know it's years old but my dude you got such an amazing voice. Playing the guitar is a talent, along with singing, but to do them both as well as you have. Mad props to you mate. Such emotion in your voice as well, an inspiration to all.

dude, fucking nailed it

sou do brasil e amei cara canta muito você

I'm watching this in 2018, but let me tell you that you have a so fucking awesome voice. Congratulations.

Killed it bro. I'm so tired of people not willing to belt out the later parts of the song but you did such a good job.

Hey man i dont Kkk e if you will look this comentary, im from brazil, you are so good man ,sorry by my english lol

You got a couple lyrics wrong, but you did a great job. An awesome voice..

You should play, death of me by asking Alexandria

I seriously thought he was going to skip the high notes at 2:40, then smiled when I heard him going for it... And again at the end, thought he was going to skip, but... Nope... Goodness dude, powerful voice there. I was NOT expecting any of this.

My dude, this is so amazing! I hope there would be a band cover of this soon! Rock on bro!

Dude, can you give us some vocal exercises?

Epico ese trueno de fondo

you fly. congratulations, great job, you're great, bro! proud!

You're amazing brother!you've given pure respect to the band and the emotions!

Bro I don’t usually listen to acoustic covers, but you have changed my opinion on them
