Well Iām here again boys and gals! You got rid of my voice for the last couple of videos, and that cannot be
Anyway, this is a song that I fell in love with a while ago, and have been learning it for the last couple of months. I finally got to be able to sing while doing the fingerpicking pattern, whish to me is a huge deal.
Itās true that itās a more simple version than the original, but still very proud of it. Typical blunders on the guitar, and on the vocalsā¦this was particularly hard to sing.
Here is my thingy:
And since this is not a very popular tune, here is a great performance by the writer of the song:
Hi Kevin,
lovely quiet fingerpicking song ā¦I like the guitar a bit louder in the beginning, but then I start whining about a detailā¦Great job and I was able to dream away a 2nd timeā¦
Greetings,Rogier
Didnāt know the song but I glad you introduced us to it
sweet playing bro and your singing isnāt bad either to say the least.
Very much allowed ot be proud.
Iād love to see you transpose it up a little, have you standign straight and sing it a little higher. Your low voice showds you donāt have issues in delivering power in lower registers and thatās awesome but I think your expression/delivery will benefit from going up a bit.
Do I sense a bit of unsteady confidence going up a bit in vocal region for this song?
I kinda feel youāre up to itā¦
That was great Kevin your deep voice really did service to this song. Singing along while doing a fingerstyle song is such an achievement, I still remember when I did one and it made me so proud - cherish this moment you deserve it!
And I really dig this sort of songs so thanks for showing it to me!
I just shown your version to my wife Kevin and we both agreed your version is so much better than original, I just prefer the song to be a bit lower than what original has to offer. So again bravo!
@LievenDV thanks very much Lieven, the truth is I even tried to go lower
I get very insecure going higher, like it takes too much energy to go there. Itās possible that I got used to singing lower, and going high doesnāt seem comfortable, but itās something that Iām open to explore and Iāll give it a try. Thanks again for the thoughtful review and advice!
@adi_mrok thank you Adrian, Iām glad you enjoyed it and discovered the original, very interesting artist.
And about what you and your wife said, wow⦠I donāt think I feel deserving of those words but Iāll take it!
Never heard this song, but really enjoyed your take on it. Lovely guitar tones and play. I agree that you vox maybe could come up a bit (not quite like the original). A very nice performance, indeed.
Super fingerpicking Kevin, I really liked it. Donāt know the song but I enjoyed your version. Your vocal was terrific but I tend to agree with the others that a slightly higher key might suit you. Just donāt get a dumb ass tattoo on your neck like the original guy!!
