Cover of How Can I Tell You by Cat Power (original by Cat Stevens)

[foxforcegirl]

I've loved the Cat Power version of this song ever since I heard it on that commercial. I wish I could use it in my wedding but halfway thru the lyrics get all sad. I think your voice is amazing & so sweet. Please keep singing. You have a great gift

[TheBenj2011]

Lani Hall did a delightful version of this song, How Can I Tell You by Cat Stevens, and your rendition is very pleasing that it makes me wanna sing-a-long with a big smile on my face!

[jknyc03]

simply amazing. your voice is so unique. this made my day. :) thank you.

[octave121]

@jknyc03 thank you :)

[Biohtrack]

You're probably the best thing i've found today.

[octave121]

@Biohtrack haha why thank you :)

[anon4096]

I think this song was probably originally written for a spouse, but when I listen to this version I can't help but think of my grandmother. I'm a 24 year old man. I'm cold and try not to show much emotion but listening to this has made me cry on numerous occasions. Your voice is beautiful, thank you for singing this.

[octave121]

@anon4096 i think thats a beautiful way of hearing this song.. thank you so much for commenting!

[whyflipoverthefrog]

Whoever you are, wherever you go, and whatever you do - please keep singing. I hope you realize the gift you have, that you love it, and that you share it.

[octave121]

[xcislife94]

do you think you could play skinny love by bon iver? it's a wonderful song and i think it would really suit you and your style :)

[justatrymusic]

Love your voice..

[ashinguy]

surprisingly awesome. really really good.

[kesselmelrose]

Not that I imagine you take requests, but have you ever considered covering Ted Lucas It's So Easy. I found your song searching for the De Beers song. The other song is used in an Audi ad currently but GOD YOUR VOICE would just kill that song. By the way listed to other songs you had for download Love those also.

[octave121]

@kesselmelrose thanks so much! i just listened to that song and I really like it, maybe i'll give it a try soon!

[kesselmelrose]

Thank you for posting this. Your voice is amazing. I have downloaded it and appreciate it immensely.

[woahexxcitement]

this is the most beautiful song i have ever heard (and you do such an amazing job singing/playing it; by far my favorite cover of any song, ever).

i'm somewhat of an amateur at playing guitar and i was hoping to use this song to propose to the love of my life.

is there any possible way you could send me the tabs you used in learning this song? i really want to be able to play it exactly like you when i pop the question.  i think it would be really special.
