I listened to your solo part too on the other post. Well done, this is a great project. Well played and sung on this one.
or this ?
Nicely done Liz.
I definitely remember the song - Suzanne Vega released some fine records.
My one suggestion for this and all songs is to develop a constant motion in your strumming arm. Down Up Down Up Down Up keep it moving Down Up Down Up etc.
When a song like this has a choppy stop / start strumming you want to aim to keep the swinging of your arm as a measure for the beat even though your pick is not striking the strings, merely passing across the top.
I hope that helps.

Hi Liz,
Quality vocal.
Not heard this song in ages - thought you pulled it off well.

That was super sweet Liz. Great song and loving your stripped back version of it. Playing and vocals were great.
That was great Liz I remember this song well. Suzanne Vega is still touring she played Scotland in July this year I didn’t make the gig but my daughter did and said she was fab! I really enjoyed this
Aw thanks, yes I saw she did a tour this year
Nicely done, Liz. I’m not familiar with the song or the artist, but well played and sang. I always enjoy your performances.
Aw Liz, I’m a bit disappointed-
not a cockatoo in sight, nor squealie to be heard
I liked the SV original of this and you do a good cover.
Cracking job as usual on the the vocal front and the guitar playing sounds good too.
My one suggestion would be to try strumming differently on this.
If I keep my arm moving contantly, I find the natural pattern is
down (up), (down) up, (down) up, down up
When do we get to hear Lithium?
Ha, I just needed any sort of pattern I could sing over, it’s not an easy one that one
You want to hear Lithium? Maybe I’ll do a bit, but I’ll have to learn the words. I didn’t sing lithium for my teacher either and he was disappointed
