Nice job! On the history of the song -- it is a Carter family song but it was written long before the Carters -- in 1860 by Maud Irving and Joseph Webster.
Awesome, I have been visiting utube listening to some of the music posted on there. This is one of the best I've come across. Even better than folks who have been entertaining for years. Hopefully someone will pick up on this talent and soon we will be able to continue to buy cd's with music from the past to the present of the original Tennesse, Virginia, Kentucky Mountain music. I'd really like to hear her do "Rock Top".... Good luck
Learn to play it also! I am a 52 year old man and i learned to play by means of Mother and Glenn Cambell, Chet Actkens, ECT, I'm sorry i was'nt thrilled, and why do you have a capo on? just play it in C'. Sorry
@danielsaun1957 Dude, look at the videos on you tube of Mother playing (as well as other Carter family members) they play with capo!! Why criticize her for something so unimportant?!
It's a little hard to tone down the music because she's playing a dobro. But, I do agree your voice is very nice. Play with a guitar if you have one so we can hear it. :D Great job.
nice singing just a bit fast i sor the film a will a go its my all time favorite movie your good i think the X Factor woold accepte you ! lol speek soon!
They clamp from the topside of the neck and are smaller. Won't crowd your hand. You'll want it out of your way when you get around to picking out the melody.
I like your voice - there's a simplicity about it which fits the song. Are you a country girl?
I do agree with tomas though - the original was a composed song, dating from the 19th century. Emmylou Harris sings "pale amenita" - that's a mushroom! Now to learn some guitar - play every day.
You must have got it right, because one person says it's too fast and another too slow. The right voice for the song - clear and calm. But why use the Carters' tangled words? That's taking respect a bit too far. The right ones are on a site called bobdylanroots and you search for wwflower.
You really have a great voice and do a great version. I would really like to hear a slower version as it's a bit rushed and this could really add more emotion to a great song. Good luck in your future plans!
I think the original is very fast - that's what's so great about it. The lyrics are poignant and sentimental but it's sung raw, harsh AND FAST! I'm not so keen on later cleaned up and slowed down versions the Carter Family recorded.
I am a big fan of johnny cash & june carter, and i think your voice is great for this song! however i also think if you sang it more slowly, for at least a couple of the verses, it would make the song more emotional.
Fantastic! 5 STARS! I am using your video as my mentor to do this song myself. What type of guitar is it you have, please? Thank you! I am certain that Mother Maybelle Carter is proud. Great Job!
wonderful! 5 Stars! Could you please record this song again, but more slowly? some kind like reese witherspoon has done it in "walk the line", would sound wonderful with your voice I think.
Wow your really good. Much better then what i can do. I love this song, and can only play a bit of it, but i don't like singing in front of people, so i cant tape myself. But you do a very good job! i love it.
Hi. You've got a lovely clear voice - it really suits the character of the song. Check out my video of the song - it shows you how to play it simply in 2 different keys in a (modern) Carter style. Thanks again.
Do you maybe know of a video that could teach me? I've been trying to learn, or if you know how to do it that would be cool too. Thanks for your comment!
Fantastic! A wonderful song.
