Here's my version.. hope you like it.. i was nervous and I procrastinated.. sorry.. See you in Richmond,VA on Aug 1st..
cutting it close
Here's my rendition. Thanks for watching!
I'm in Love with a Guy ; ]
I really love Gavin Degraw's new song "I'm in Love with a Girl" and being an avid fan of his (I have been to more of his concerts than I care to admit) I decided to give it a try.
Note that I do not play the piano but since Gavin is the piano man, I wanted to teach myself this song on the piano instead of playing it on the guitar. This is the first song I have ever played on the piano and I have only been working on it for about a week, so forgive the mistakes please! ;D
I really hope that you like my last minute shot at this beautiful song or that it at least doesn't make your ears bleed, that would be great!

Last-Minute Inspiration
This is another version I decided to do. It's a little strange but it was a lot of fun to sing and that's what's most important! Also, I really need to learn how to videotape. Great job everyone!!
"I'm in Love with a Girl" Take 2 :)
i don't know of many contests that let you enter more then once, so i decided to take advantage of it:) this version popped into my head so i thought of adding it.. i slowed it down some. hope you enjoy! thanks again! and Break-A-Leg to everyone!

In Love With A Guy Cover by Laura
So I'm a big fan of Gavin's...it's his music that got me started composing my own tunes on the piano and now open mics and whatnot are one of the biggest joys in my life. So thank you to Gavin for his wonderful and soulful music!
Thought I'd give my take on In Love With A Girl (but changed it to "with a guy" cause i'm a lady lol) I recorded this on my digital camera so it's not the best sound quality I know, but I hope you all enjoy it all the same! Thanks for listening!

My attemp at "In Love With a Girl". Hope you like it Gavin!.......
I hope I didn't slaughter your song!!
Hi Gavin! My name is Mary and I'm 23 years old from Chicago. I just saw you play in Joliet, IL and it was by far the best concert I've ever been to. You are absolutely amazing!
I just learned to play the song really simplistically yesterday. I hope you like it!

Heyyyyy there
My name is Lori, and this is my submission for Gavin Degraw's singing contest. I havent performed in oh, 7 months, so, bear with me! I know it sounds really cheesy since its accapella, but its all I could do! "In love with a girl" chords on the guitar are just above my level of expertise (which isnt all that high haha). Thanks

My take on 'In Love With A Girl'
My take on In Love With A Girl
The piano and vocals were recorded separately and then added together, so that's why I'm wearing headphones (I was listening to the playback.) Hope you enjoy it =)
Me Singing You
It took a lot of work to enter this! I hope you like this more than your site likes AOL! Camille...

My Favorite
This guy's got it! Definitely my favorite. ^_^
His voice is awesome, and you can really feel the lyrics.
In Love With A Gavin DeGraw
Umm me and my friends decided to do a little bit more than just singing. Its kinda more along the lines of a documentary but i lovee it. I mean we still sing at the end of it, so i hope yall really enjoy it.
Loved it!
Great voice and he totally got into the Gavin role with that piano. Definitely my favorite version! He was feeling those lyrics.
And you must come to Houston Gavin, I couldn't agree more with him.
It's All About Soul
Haha, this was clearly shot really close up and practically needs night vision to be seen. But I had a lot of fun doing it. It's so awesome to see all the other covers of Gavin's song. This should be a regular thing on his site (for fun, not necessarily for prizes). Also, this dude below me is really good!

Gavins tha' man!
It's awesome to see how many fans have posted videos! I was really surprised to see the overall quality and turnout of these covers, you guys/gals did a great job! I have always been an avid fan, and covered many of Gavin's songs on street corners and in bars. Its great to see the male population taking interest in these soul-felt songs and participating in this contest! I hope we can do another, maybe "Young Love"?
Gavin you have been an inspiration in my life, I would like to dedicate this song to you.
Thanks Dude God Bless,
Nathanael
Please "Follow Through" and pick me Gavin!
