Stay - Rihanna (Erick Baker acoustic cover) | Stay Awhile Sessions 

What a skillful master, your version is unmatchable and unbeatable, I guess it's the best one

Holy shit, this is the best cover... no no, it's even better than the original. Dude, why is this so underrated??

Was jamming this morning on the way to the jobsite to this song and thought damn this would be a good acoustic song. Sitting here tonight listening to this blows my mind. It’s what I was imagining this morning x 10!!

Heard the song a million times on the radio, but I never actually "heard" the song until you covered it. You give the words life. Love this cover.

That's a great version! Congratulations 😄 I need to try this haha

Bro, you are wrecking it!!! That's what I was looking for!! Wonderful!

DAAAMN!!! That was amazing dude!!! That's what I call a cover with a personality. Liked + subscribed

Wowww!!! Thanks mate! That was beautifull!!!!

Itch time.i watch it i never fed up with!!!💜💜💜🙏🙏🙏

That was fucking beautiful man

I was looking this up to learn the chords.....wow just wow. I know my cover won't do this justice. Mad props to you brother!

Wow man I have chills all over my body You’re not singing the song you are the song The way you move I can feel your soul So beautiful!!!!!

Hey man, have just discovered your version of "Stay". Great singing and playing. Full of emotion and above all, it's your own version which I even like more than the original one. Respect!

Erick I saw you with Pete Yorn in Orlando in 2009. I picked up your ep because I totally dug Stay Awhile. Glad you're still around making awesome music. That show I kept on thing about Ryan Adams and the Cardinals

Soul, just so much soul ...you are awesomely awesome! ❤🎶

Very good!!!

What a passion! Wonderful!

Gosh Damn! Don't stop!

Wow, you have a very raw and guttural singing voice that is extremely beautiful. Nice guitar and your voice is all that is needed for this song.

OUTSTANDING 🙏 I love everything about this....your voice, passion, timing and playing - thanks for the gorgeous video in that beautiful white space

Killing it.

Passion always makes me feel good. Keep it up.

Flippin awesome!!

Hell yeah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Feckin brilliant Sir! 👏

The point is to put ourselves in a place where people need us ,, not where we need them ... very good cover.

Passionate! Thumbs up, mate! 👍

Wow😍😍😍 im speechless sir what a nice hot voice

Would have loved to see this being performed on the voice 😍

Best cover yet, made it your own!

All along it was a fever A cold sweat, hot headed believer I threw my hands in the air, said, "Show me something" He said, "If you dare, come a little closer" Round and around and around and around we go Oh, now tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know Not really sure how to feel about it Something in the way you move Makes me feel like I can't live without you It takes me all the way I want you to stay It's not much of a life you're living It's not just something you take, it's given Round and around and around and around we go Oh, now tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know Not really sure how to feel about it Something in the way you move Makes me feel like I can't live without you It takes me all the way And I want you to stay Ooh, the reason I hold on Ooh, 'cause I need this hole gone Well, funny you're the broken one But I'm the only one who needed saving 'Cause when you never see the light It's hard to know which one of us is caving Not really sure how to feel about it Something in the way you move Makes me feel like I can't live without you It takes me all the way I want you to stay Stay I want you to stay Ooh

Wow Erick, that’s a great cover. I used to sing Sara Smile by Hall and Oats to my daughter. Would love it if you could cover that. When you coming to Nashville again?

This is one of the first songs I learned on the piano. However your cover is far more impressive. Big fan of yours :)

La grande classe!!!!! Bravo pour cette force d'interprétation unique!!!merci énormément pour ce moment d'émotion tres tres forte!!!!😊🙏🙏😊

So so so good! Love the covers!

Incredible. Love the movement while you sing

really great !

Please, where do i find the cipher?

What tuning and chords are you using? Awesome cover!

You made that your own my dude

Perfect

Great cover dude. Made it your own & owned it 🤙 Love watching channels similar to mine/ fellow musicians. New fan 🤘

Capo on the 1st fret...thanks for this! I play keyboard & guitar and was looking for a good cover to get my brain going. You sound great man, I love how your body gets into it while playing too! Have a Happy Valentine's Day in 2021, a lot of people have lost so many people this past year, even though we all just want them to stay. This song hits hard for all people in all generations. Much love brother. ❤❤❤

amazing job man! :) Loved it

There he is!!!

This was an amazing cover! Can't wait to see what you do next

Great job man. Hope to catch you in Asheville next go round

You’re the best💕💕💕💕

Yo man, love this cover... I'm just starting out with recording music and I'm kind of a dunce (Been playing for years though) --- Could you please describe how you managed to record a video while using a microphone? What was the process? If you have the time, I'd be really grateful so I can try to do my own videos, thanks.

This is so intense and I agree with other comments, better than the original ❤

Dude I hope you realize that one day your going to just blow up, there will come a time you won't even be able to reply to the sheer amount of likes and comments you will receive. One of my favourite covers, well done seriously.

💜

Amazing cover bro

Much love, man

Fuck.. this is insane :O

Can I do a cover on your rendition? Its so powerful I really love it

Amazing cover mate, I'm going to cover this too at some point on my insta thanks for the inspiration. truthsmusic
