Troubled Waters (Cat Power cover)

[auROARa89]

so satisfying to hear you sing :)

i love the whistling at the beginning with the echoes, gives it a haunting, eerie quality which really suits the song.

well done for singing songs that suit your voice :)

[poppetangel]

I'm working my way through your videos and so far, they're all amazing. Your voice is beautiful. Is it possible to download any of your tracks?

[thebrooke]

Thanks to everyone!

It is indeed possible to download my (cover) tracks. See the video description for the link. :)

[JessicaIsWhack]

You should tottaly do a cover of 'Ice Water' by Cat Power. I think that's sych an awesome song and have yet to find it on Youtube!

You have a voice to tottaly pull it off. :]

[shakingandwithdrawn]

[lorddard]

[Exoil]

this is great, thank you!

[kidvicious24]

=o

How do you get that echo?

[thebrooke]

black magic (and an amp with built in effects such as reverb). :)

Thanks everyone! :)

[Muri301]

lmfao

[ogatasan]

wow. thanks for sharing - i prefer your voice to cat power

[jackdmehoff]

beautiful. and so is the song.

[0tunic0]

no matter how many times I listen to this Cat Power song, it always makes me teary eyed. You've done it too, so awesome job here !

[ufis567]

Cat Power, Radiohead, real talent...what are you doing tonight?

[thebrooke]

Thanks guys :)

[Stocky76]

Very ambitious of you to "go there", but you do an excellent job.

[LMartella]

Haunting and simply beautiful.

[gratefuldead76]

do you know of any way i could extract the audio or something? i'd really love to put the songs on my ipod

[thebrooke]

Actually I'm in the process of doing this with all my videos, so, you see the link in the video description - check that in a few days or so and hopefully I'll have posted it there. if not, keep checking. :)

[Yuccaccuy]

this is really great! its one of my favorite songs too.

[gratefuldead76]

you should check out the song bang bang my baby shot me down by nancy sinatra (from kill bill vol. 1) I think you could do a kickass version of that song.

[thebrooke]

I'm way ahead of you there. Love that song. I haven't quite figured out the guitar yet. Thanks for the push. I really do want to do that one. :)

[sk8rgrlzzz]

ha. i left a comment on another video comparing you to cat power and here your doing a cover. ha. awesome.

Love it.

[chmlh]

I want to know it too!!! Make sure they´ll sell your CD here in Brazil so I can buy it

[drlh25]

pretty cooll cover!! you have good voice...what is your name?? so I can recgonize you when you became a success

PS: I LUV CHAN

[thebrooke]

Thanks. My name's Brooke :) But I'll probably go by some made up name as an artist, the way Chan does. I'll let you know when I think of one.

[booradleysstuntman]

hey, Brooke. obvious comparisons aside, you so nailed this one and made it your own. wonderfully haunting vocals.

[thebrooke]

thanks, I try.. :)

[ajyo84]

beautifully done. which album is this on?

[thebrooke]

Tis on the Covers Record. I also have an MP3 up of a good live version of this song (by Chan), on my website.

[thebrooke]

Thanks everyone, you are all sweet! :)

Again, I really apologize for the ear-blasting badness at the beginning. Damn.

(recovering perfectionist = me)

[MartinFarrows]

the reverb fits perfectly with for sweet and soft voice

[Ottawarocket]

Just super. I really enjoyed this song

rocket

[rivatoot]

too much.

[KrisShred]

Hi theBrooke, please check out noojet (here on YT), her style is very similar to yours. Another beautiful recording, keep it up :)

Kris

[gratefuldead76]

i'm thinking you should do some yeah yeah yeahs or maybe just maybe motion picture soundtrack by radiohead

[thebrooke]

I don't know what to say.. thank you. :)

[dapf5]

softly,great and indeed something mysterious and ancient about your voice/appearance,

grtz D

[SicTransitGloria1982]

Okay, I'm quickly falling in love with your voice. Gorgeous performance (minus the audio faults) -- there's something melancholy yet mellifluous, innocent yet altogether 'ancient soul' about the way you sing. But I guess a little reverb helps too, heh. :D

In all seriousness, quite possibly the best new voice I've come across in 2007, and that includes the pros.

[thebrooke]

Mellifluous.. I had to look that one up. Thanks. :)

A little reverb never hurts. ;)

[celestialsam]

Absolutely hypnotic. Your voice is just so pleasant to listen to:)

[zoathias]

If you weren't already married I'd propose. I have goosebumps -- that was awesome, better than Chan's version! What make/model guitar do you play anyway?

[thebrooke]

sorry zoathias I somehow missed your question before. it's a Fender. Nothin fancy.

Thanks for your sweet little lies, but come on, nobody sings better than Chan. ;)

[zoathias]

Fender makes nice guitars. I have a feeling you could play a generic guitar purchased from wal-mart and you'd still sound great.

Don't sell yourself short!

[nubbs]

better than chan? settle down. nothing is better than chan, as good as this is

[thekillinghordes]

Dear Brooke,

You kill me.

Sincerely,

Your #1 FAN

[gratefuldead76]

love it.
