Uhm... Basically I move my hand up and down every quaver but only strum on the emphasised beats which is why my hand looks like its going up and down more than you hear... because it is. It's just an intuitive thing. I'm sure if you listen closely you can work it out! I strummed because the original finger picking doesn't carry too far up a walk way like that.
It's one of Ipswich's back streets in Suffolk, the arse of england. I busk here all the time when I'm not in Leeds studying... it wasn't a deliberate evocation of the film, my Mum just happened to have a digital camcorder on her when she stopped by to bring me coffee.
Yeah, strumming due to cold, so the lovely arpeggios are missing, and as for the words, yeah, they're wrong 'cos I basically repeated the first verse a lot! Busking + Brain freeze = compromises, but thanks for the positive comments!
