Not bad. If this guy sticks with playing the guitar he might be able to make a career out of it...maybe?

That actually sounds more like a late-90s DD remix than a cover. Jesse's got a pretty great voice for looking as methed-out as he does.

I have always been a luke-warm Oldfield fan, while really loving Hall & Oates, particularly Hall's vocals. But I much prefer the original version of this. Maggie Reilly's vocals are great. But I like both versions.

That's kind of funny. I was thinking as I posted that it's the H&O vocals that actually give it the edge for me. Not to knock Reilly's singing ability but her vocals seem kind of wishy-washy in this song.
