liked this tune when it was used for a tv show in england called weekend world, never knew it was a full tune from mountain.

[skewbeef]

i enjoyed watching you enjoying playing.there's no better feeling than making music.good job.keep it up.

[burdinus]

Pretty decent voice you got...glad that you're having fun with this...

[rachimbaskin]

It's not 'almost' Mountain, Mr. S.

It's yours; beautiful as is.

And your ending is both sweet and rousing. Thank you.

I was mostly referring to the verse I left out. Very nice of you to write this. jh

[jimmychipper]

I'm finally starting to hear folks talk about how much they were influenced by Mountain. They were Queen, before Queen existed. Mtn had classically influenced chord changes, a gtr player with great wide vibrato, and nice dynamics. Good job on the acoustic vocal rendition.

[bubbadersh]

Thanks. I really enjoyed hearing the song again. It's been years. The last time I saw them live was at the Felt Forum in NYC in the early 1970s.

That was fun. Thanks. Does anybody remember a short instrumental song by MOUNTAIN entitled "KING'S CHORALE" that was on the album "FLOWERS OF EVIL"? It's a beautiful melody and I found it on LIMEWIRE. Check it out it. It's a pretty tune.

Or possibly just the chorus of Child in Time by Deep Purple...particularly suited to your choirboy vocals

[SilverHamer]

Ok...now I wanna see Mississippi Queen, followed by Sittin' On A Rainbow!!! JUST KIDDING! The Climbing album was my favorite Mountain LP. You don't do a bad job covering Felix's vocals here, bub! Great Job! LC

[clarence99]

can you put the chords down here? i see you start on e minor than to d and than the c chord.can you just name the rest of the chords?just write the chords dont worry about any explainations. we can use the video for that. thanks in advance

[marksecunda]

Em to D to C to Em7 to Am to Em. Repeat. Then, A-E-F#m-C#-D-A-G... "there are years..." A-E-F#M-D. "and I know..." A-D-F#m (repeat this last three). Instrumental: Em......G-F#m-Em-D,,,G-F#m-Em-­D-A... This is about where I drop the sheet music and stop playing, but it actually goes through all of this again. Thank you for watching!

[megasxlr01111]

seriously, that is the 2nd best ive ever heard of anyone singin that song. mountain is the 1st. lol

[magentas444]

Awesome---your voice really sounds like Felix on this song!

[LA90004]

hey, good job!

[marksecunda]

...but I'll leave it up because I want you to know how much I love this period of the group Mountain!

[marksecunda]

There was a perfect take that had every verse and went all the way to the end... however, the tape ran out after one minute. I didn't know until it was over. That's why I hate this one!
