There is some potential there. I agree, buy a tuner. Your top 2 strings were out of tune.
A. If you want to be a better golfer, play with golfers better than you.
B. If you want to be a better singer, sing with people who are better singers than you.
Get the idea?

i like your voice very much actually. strangely enough i don't know if it's right for what you're playing though (not that it doesnt sound good, you could definately keep doin this type of music and itd sound fine), but i think ud sound great with a real band behind you.

Not bad at all...lots of potential here....I'd like to hear a little more "energy" in the voice if you get my drift. Sing it like you mean it.

Oh ya....I'll say get a tuner too.

Yeah, it would suck less if your guitar was in tune. Get a tuner.

The guitar is not terribly out of tune, IMO. Far from perfect, but not bad enough to be disturbing, considering the quality of the recording overall isn't the best.

Your singing is pretty good. Start booking gigs.

Only enough to drive someone with perfect pitch utterly insane.

Or even someone with decent relative pitch.

Tune your guitar, aim the camera higher so we can see you, re-track the piece, and let's see some improvement.

I agree, there must be 2 million+ headless vids on youtube...it's kind of lame and annoying. IMO

That is the worst sounding bass ever. Thin and hollow.
