I just don't know how you form an entire song around such a boring guitar melody... i guess the chorus is OK but that melody kills me. Seems like it's going to go somewhere else, then it just repeats and repeats and repeats

It’s a great song, tree_, just a terrible cover.

Who benefits from this from a financial standpoint?

Is it Chapman, who wrote it?

Or is it this combs dude?

Is Combs his last name or is this just a description of what he's doing while he performs the cover?
