I know you already mentioned it.. but sometimes I feel if the video/audio quality isn't at least half decent, it's not worth uploading to youtube. If you really like playing music, and sharing it, invest just a little bit of money in recording equipment. It really doesn't cost much (well it might be harder for drums. Electronic drums would be better for home recording).

As for the actual cover. Drums and guitar seems to be played very well, but the voice sounds really annoying. Very annoying. Keep up the good work with the instrumentals, but work on the vocals.

Instruments sounded decent as far as I can tell, but I only listened to about 40 seconds because I couldn't stand the vocals (sorry). Not sure if you were being serious with the vocals or not, but it sounded like a parody. Tom's got a weird voice to begin with, so trying to emulate it wouldn't really sound the best as opposed to singing naturally, the way you're comfortable.
