Lyrics:
Underneath the bridge, tarp has sprung a leak
And the animals I've trapped have all become my pets
And I'm living off of grass, and the drippings from my ceiling
It's OK to eat fish 'cause they don't have any feelings
Something in the way, hmm-mmm
Something in the way, yeah, hmm-mmm
Something in the way, hmm-mmm
Something in the way, yeah, hmm-mmm
Something in the way, hmm-mmm
Something in the way, yeah, hmm-mmm
Underneath the bridge, tarp has sprung a leak
And the animals I've trapped have all become my pets
And I'm living off of grass, and the drippings from my ceiling
It's OK to eat fish 'cause they don't have any feelings
Something in the way, hmm-mmm
Something in the way, yeah, hmm-mmm
Something in the way, hmm-mmm
Something in the way, yeah, hmm-mmm
Something in the way, hmm-mmm
Something in the way, yeah, hmm-mmm
Something in the way, hmm-mmm
Something in the way, yeah, hmm-mmm

Read your comment at about the 0:30 mark, was typing out a wry remark about slipping off at the end and how much this sounded like Kurt. How it took me until 1:10 to realise that’s exactly who he is covering well shit I’m not sure, but damn I love it! Edit: I think I may have started the song in x.75 which definitely adds some extra chills

He got every bit of that guitar! It sounded full thanks the distortion and brilliant play and then at the end when he’s going off, the backsplash of the reverb sounded orchestral and suddenly felt percussive. 1 man band is all you need!

@@tylermulberry4577 Yeah but I would go with "Nutshell" for an Alice In Chains cover for him to do, or "Rain When I Die" if he thought he could do something heavier on acoustic. Maybe even "Grind" just because the people on here that didn't hear AiC back then or haven't done a dive probably wouldn't know it.

Damn. Talk about a powerful rendition of an iconic song. This dude is the real deal. My favorite new (to me) artist in a long time. The sound he produces with the acoustic and effects pedal is off the charts amazing. I want to figure out his guitar tunning configuration. The song "The Devil" is what got me following this guy. Plenty of other bangers in his catalog. Lyrics are always off the charts good.

I had the same look at the end and found myself just staring at the blank screen for a moment. Wow. Glad you came to Country Thunder. I was working there in uniform and passed you with a quick “Hey” in the catering area. Only got to hear a bit of your performance as I had other things to deal with. I gave up on country music that has just turned into boy bands sang with a twang, but this. You are in a very small group of artists that is what country music has been missing. Thanks. I wish you well.
