    Most people who try to cover Dave fail miserably and your friend is included in the majority

    Halloween is virtually uncoverable if you ask me. I've tried close to the complete catalogue with really good to relatively good success on most songs, Halloween is a major exception to that.

    EDIT : And that's part of what makes it so epic if you ask me. It is truly unique.

    I feel like that wasn't in the same key... I'll assume that was done to fit his vocal range..

    who puts pictures up like that? i mean i get that "your friend" is in a frat, but really do we need them.

    and anyone who says frat stereotypes aren't true just needs to watch the video. not only are the pictures enough proof, but he's also playing a DMB song on guitar

    thanks to your "friend" for putting yet another POS cover out there for me to filter through if i ever want to hear DMB actually playing this tune on youtube.

    The guitar part is wrong. He plays the chorus correctly but everything else is in the wrong key.

    Very bad song to attempt to cover.

    You're playing a G and it should be an F. It throws off the entire song.

    the guitar is off, the vocals are as good as they can be for someone covering halloween (which i agree with above posts is "uncoverable"- unless you're dee snyder)...the pics were awful and distracting
