This is my first cover. I just need to know if ya'll think this is a cover or if I made it my own. Please, I actually do need to know, here. Like, listen to the original, listen to some other covers, and then tell me if I went too far, here.Also, I'm not sure if I made the mastering way too, like, hot or blasty. It's difficult. Mastering is fucking hard, okay? No tool will ever exist that can say "yeah, this the one." At the end of the day, I need all of you to tell me if it works or not._[Verse 1]As you promised me that I was more than all the miles combinedYou must've had yourself a change of heart like halfway through the driveBecause your voice trailed off exactly as you passed my exit signKept on drivin' straight and left our future to the rightNow I am stuck between my anger and the blame that I can't faceAnd memories are somethin' even smoking weed cannot replaceAnd I am terrified of weather 'cause I see you when it rainsDoc told me to travel, but there's Covid on the plane[Chorus]And I love Vermont, but it's the season of the sticksAnd I saw your mom, she forgot that I existedAnd it's half my fault, but I just like to play the victimI'll drink alcohol 'til my friends come home for ChristmasAnd I'll dream each night of some version of youThat I might not have, but I did not loseNow you're tire tracks and one pair of shoesAnd I'm split in half, but that'll have to do[Verse 2]So I thought that if I piled something good on all my badThat I could cancel out the darkness I inherited from DadNo, I am no longer funny 'cause I miss the way you laughYou once called me "forever," now you still can't call me back[Chorus]And I love Vermont, but it's the season of the sticksAnd I saw your mom, she forgot that I existedAnd it's half my fault, but I just like to play the victimI'll drink alcohol 'til my friends come home for ChristmasAnd I'll dream each night of some version of youThat I might not have, but I did not loseNow you're tire tracks and one pair of shoesAnd I'm split in half, but that'll have to do[Bridge]Oh, that'll have to doMy other half was youI hope this pain's just passin' throughBut I doubt it[Chorus]I love Vermont, but it's the season of the sticksAnd I saw your mom, she forgot that I existedAnd it's half my fault, but I just like to play the victimI'll drink alcohol 'til my friends come home for ChristmasAnd I'll dream each night of some version of youThat I might not have, but I did not loseNow you're tire tracks and one pair of shoesAnd I'm split in half, but that'll have to do[Outro]Have to do.Have to do.Have to do.

I absolutely fucking love this. You've nailed the emotions in it. your voice sounds great and fits this beautifully. You've made it so unique while still keeping it true.

I think it’s within the bounds of “cover” and I’m not just saying that. I also love it, the original is not so much my style but what you’ve done with it is so good. I think the emotional resonance hits in a different spot and I connect with it more now. I also found myself looking forward to each repeat of the chorus because it’s that good.

you're very sweet 🤍 I am, well, you could guess—neurotic and biased against myself, but also, I've listened to so many covers of this song and there are maybe two that can hold a candle to it, but I don't think any come close to the original. I do think it's the 2nd or 3rd best cover, though, but a whole lot, with the next best one being very distant. I did something great with this one for sure.

This is absolutely magical, whisked me away with your voice to a place far from where I’m at. I love it ✨💜✨ This definitely feels like a cover to me, with some heavy artistic license sure but it still gave me the same type of emotional response. Calmness like an emotional over pressure valve I think.

I love this song so much. Like so so so much. Noah Kahan did something incredible here. I don't think I did like he did, but I tried. I love Vermont. I really, really, really love Vermont.

It’s a great first attempt! I love the opening, but it feels like the song looses momentum around 1:17. I think the idea of slowing down to make the emotional moments stick harder is a good idea, you just have to balance that with the almost bouncy nature of the original lyrics. You did over do the mastering by a hair, I’d say 10%-15%. Which isn’t bad for a first run.

unfortunately, redoing a majority of the song is a bit of a tall order. This is because the slowdown was in the actual composition and pre-production, not something I did in post, so it really is redoing the song from scratch.

Ben Welch

It is what it is. It’s a perfectly good cover regardless.
