I say song in the title instead of cover because this isn't anything like the original.

"sarah" has always been a very special song to me, since my boyfriend passed almost a year ago, and it was a favorite of his. stumbling across this video gave me the chance to sit for a moment and enjoy the song in a way i haven't been able to in quite a while. thank you sir for your beautiful playing and voice :)

Alex G. Is a revolutionary artist. Elliott Smith created this scene and Alex took it and ran with it. Made it what it is. This is a beautiful cover. I hate being one of those that requests, you should be allowed to sing what you want. But Change is my favorite song of all time. So if you come across the song, that'd be amazing.
