    I'm honestly impressed how clean his glasses are!

    When you gangsta, viking and country at the same time
  • @grimreaper4782
    This is exactly how you cover a song the right way. Make it your own without destroying the original. Awesome job.

    This man’s voice is everything . Glad I got to discover him !

    The Weeknd made a track perfect for the cities and driving at night. Teddy gaves us a cover to head through the countryside to the ocean.

    No one should cover a song by The Weeknd…… except Teddy Swims, wow whole new vibe to the song. 💖
  • @HueYang.1
    Whats so great about this cover for me is that it doesn't make me feel like I'm driving through Vegas but instead like I'm driving through a beautiful forest at the crack of dawn. Another amazing cover man

    This song has been the soundtrack to our quarantine. I am so lucky that I get to be with my best friends in the world during this mess. Count your blessings! My cover of Blinding Lights by The Weeknd is streaming on all platforms now!! Link in description ❤️❤️❤️

    The way Teddy sings the chorus in 3 styles, spanning across raspy, soothing and pure soaring, is sheer musicianship!
  • @joelmullett
    This is fucking great. You nailed it. I prefer it to the original to be honest.
  • @mnov
    The weeknd version is what you play when you are on your mercedes with this hot girl going on a diner first date, Teddy's version is what you play when you are with the love of your life on a classic cadillac convertible cruising on the coast

    A chill bearded dude covered in tattoo's singing and playing guitar around a campfire, what is not to like?

    I found out about Teddy via "Lose Control", which, upon hearing it in its entirety, made ME lose control. Utterly stunning. But then today, as I was looking for BLINDING LIGHTS, I found he covered it. Blindly, I clicked on it, expecting to hear an absolute mess. Consider this to be me eating my words. Armed with the simplest of instruments-acoustic guitar, keyboards, and a UKULELE of all things!-Swims gets his point across in the slickest, most soulful of ways, but never lets his huge, smouldering voice get in the way of the overriding point, which is the lush vocal melody. No doubt The Weeknd has heard this and is grinning from ear to ear. Utterly CRUSHING.
  • Dude, your range, your sound, your emotion, all of it is just *chef’s kiss*. Damn dude, I’m so appreciative of your talent, you’re amazing.
  • I’ve never heard Teddy before, and I am so glad the algorithm brought me here. WOW what talent!!!

    Teddy Bro, you make my eyes water OMG! Seriously, those that are music lovers need no more explanation. 🌠🌠🌠🌠🌠
