Sorry for dusting up this ancient topic, but I just received a copyright strike for Anchorage, so removed the link in the first post and just wanted to share this with the community. It feels a little odd, I must admit.
So for the few folks who wanna give it a try: beware when covering some of Michelle Shocked’s content, it’ll probably be taken down by her.
2 Strikes left, I’d better make the next covers quite bad. 
Are you sure it’s a “strike” Lisa? I’ve got loads of copyright “content ID claims” on videos of me playing songs, and on videos I’ve taken at gigs
and I’ve even had a video I took at a live gig blocked for copyright infringement,
but none of these count as a strike in the sense of threatening my channel (such as it is), they just mean if I suddenly get thousands of followers (like that’s ever going to happen) then I won’t be able to monetise the videos concerned.
After consulting my friend google I feel privileged to have got to watch you perform that song and good call on warning others in the community
Cheers for the bump, Lisa. I missed this at the time 
Sorry I missed Anchorage and that you received a ‘strike’. I wear my one as a badge of honour 
On the bright side, I got to take in the Green Day tune.
Both really well performed. You’ve got a nice voice too. I enjoyed the way you didn’t slavishly stick to all the exact melody lines of the original. Worked well.
I love the Two lost souls swimming in the goldfish bowl line, even if it always reminds me of this
Sorry for being a little MIA, we had to move “spontaneously”. 
Hi Ian,
yes it was a true strike. The others as you display I have as well, but this was a true strike. Had to take the YouTube-Copyright-Course and now wait 85 more days for my clean sheet. 
I thought of sharing a screenshot of the strike, but everything is in German, so might not add much value here.
Hi James,
your friend google seems to know a lot. 
Thanks for your kind words and sharing the story/thoughts behind my strike. If I had known, I wouldn’t have changed it from unlisted to public. Well, too late. 
Hi Brian,
hah, everything bad has something good in it!
I also feel kind of honoured to be striked. But unfortunately, I will never know if she at least liked it a little? 
Thanks for listening and the kind feedback on the two remainders. Highly appreciated and regards the fish-line: I will never think of anything else again while singing.
Hi Lisa.
I missed all this because I wasn’t here in June.
Glad this came back to the top so I could get hip.
Very well done. I enjoyed both of them songs.
Bummer I missed the third one due to the copyright thing. Darn, I’m a day late and a dollar short. Listening to the two that are still up, I missed out it would seem.
That’s a real hip 12 string ya got there.
My main guitar for decades was a 12 string, albeit a Alverez and not a Martin. Your really making that Martin sound great.
Very well done and very nice tunes.
And your sing real good too.
Hi Jim,
thanks a lot for checking in and taking your time to listen and providing such a nice, encouraging feedback. Very much appreciated!
Nice stuff! I really love the sound of 12-strings. Only, I don’t get used to use it for every day practice. I’m using it mostly for songs where I think, it fits. I deffo should experiment a little more to do her justice.
It’s surprising what’s on here that you don’t get to hear until an update, or edit or even a new post. I’ve just the enjoyment of the original posts.
Lovely to hear you.

Thanks a lot for your kind words, Rachel. Glad you liked it!
Sometimes it’s good that someone wipes away the dust on some topics.
