El preso número nueve - Joan Baez (cover)

[VivianeOfAvalon]

Have to say, I am being seduced more and more by this lovely version, the more I listen to it. Thank You!

[VivianeOfAvalon]

Hi honey! I was expecting to hear Joan Baez when I tuned in. But I must say I do like your cover! Beautiful and powerful.

[CARLSFOLKCLUB]

i think you have done a great job here with this song,i love this one. 5***** Carl

[akirakuroi]

que grande!!!

[Bo0mz0r]

I loved JB's version when it first came out, but I love this more.

[figlopdan840822]

I gotta say you really knew how to put that special feeling in the song. I'm glag that people still remember this kind of songs... but at the same time it makes me remember that latin people rather listen to... how ever they call it. Anyway, Great job, ma'am.

[tobestill]

Thank you very much, glad you can "feel the feeling" ;) all my best

[AGSBonsai]

As Cantoral fan I have to tell you have made a really nice version.. if you express your feelings you do not have to worry about accents..

[booxny]

felicidades

[alvarogrm]

me recuerda mi niñes/juventud..tengo 40 años soy de Chile como no olvidar a Joan Baez...la intrepretacion de "Gracias a la Vida"...

[elverdaderosol]

Una petición:

Cántanos "Cielo Rojo"

[elverdaderosol]

Mis respetos y felicitaciones.

Yo soy un orgulloso mexicano, también toco guitarra, pero no me he atrevido a expresar lo que tú ya lograste.....

Larga vida!!!

[tobestill]

Muchas gracias! I've never thought my version was really good but glad you appreciate (sorry to answer in English I can still understand Spanish but don't really remember how to express myself properly!).

[elverdaderosol]

@tobestill Don't worry about awnser me in English; mine isn't good enough, but I do understand you.

Be well...

Hope enjoy more of your nice voice soon....

Even though your technique is not "perfect" I think you deployed a lot of emotion into this, so that counts much much more :) And, actually your version, rather than Baez's, reminds me of Vianey Valdez watch?v=SJJMXvrfPnE

Keep working, because as we say in Spanish: "La práctica hace al maestro" (Practice makes the master)

Nice job

[zarte773]

Muy bien, felicidades, desde Mexicali, ojala que muchas personas siguan manteniendo vivas estas canciones.

[tobestill]

Muchas gracias. Es una muy buena cancion. Joan's version is very powerful.

[wenarto]

good enough, excellent!!!!!!!!

[tobestill]

Thank you, you're very kind.

A quienes les gusta como canta les recomiendo que vean la versión en vivo que aparece en tercer lugar al costado.

Es increíble el sentimiento unido a la voz.

[schattensand]

Why do you hide behind Joans picture, your voice is not that unique, guitar play not that developed, so by far good enough to not hide behind someone else. And you do not swallow up whole syllables, I like it

[tobestill]

I actually do not really understand if your comment is negative or positive criticism, but I'm interested in both!

The reason why I "hide" behind Joan's photos is very simple: I don't own a camera! Besides I am doing this for fun and have no ambition whatsoever.

As indicated, this cover was first made for a friend who asked for it.

[dannyzerozerozero]

Muy buen trabajo. Lo mas importante es que la cantes del corazon. Lo de tu acento no importa. Es mas, me gusta :D!

[RBLISCH]

Muy bien interpretado. Muchas gracias por subirlo.

[medusa22277]

auuuuuuuuuuuuu jaja como ladrasss.. no me gusta como canta

[tobestill]

pues no tienes que escucharme!

[elindiocazuelo]

Cantas son mucho sentimiento...Que bonita voz tienes... Felicidades !...

[tobestill]

Muchas gracias!

[feelinda]

Your Spanish accent is near perfect, take it from someone who speaks it all day long. Nice voice, too.

[tobestill]

Muchas gracias! I studied Spanish for 6 years and haven't practised for a few years now...but I tried my best :) thanks!

[journalwriter]

I thought this was actually Joan at first. lol Very great job.

[tobestill]

Well, thanks for the compliment!! and for listening :)

[christophe76382]

c'est vraiment très bon !! Encore un grand bravo pour tout ton travail '

[tobestill]

Merci encore Christophe!

[nemito79]

Bon je suis pas une grosse pro de la musique mais comme ça, ça reste très agréable à écouter, vraiment. Après, pour la technique, bah on dira ce qu'on veut, l'important, c'est aussi le plaisir qu'on prend à chanter et nous à écouter !

Continue !

[tobestill]

Tout à fait d'accord, il faut arriver à conjuguer tout ça, la technique - j'ai encore de la marge d'apprentissage dans les deux domaines, chant et guitare, c'est rassurant de le croire en tout cas lol - et le plaisir avant tout... MERCI pour tes encouragements! (je n'avais pas l'intention de faire cette reprise au départ, je l'ai faite pour "frozenwhitebear"...!)

[marcoacca]

Maybe I be sincere? No: you're totally out of rythm (and there are some wrong chords); and this song needs some "empathy" that's completely missing in your voice. The pitch is too high for you. This is a very difficult song to sing and play, since it needs a technique that's called "rasgueado". If you play it with a simple pick (not even a fingerpick) you kill it. But thanks for your courage... Ciao, Marco.

[tobestill]

Please, be indulgent, I've only been playing for one year! But thanks for your sincerity: I'm taking all those "Youtube comments" (positive or not) as very instructive since I am a self-taught. I'll make the most of your opinion to try and get better...(and now I know what is the "rasgueado"!)

[christophe76382]

Tu t'en sors très bien !! Tu as l'air d'être très douée en langues étrangères . Bravo ! Bon moi je parle pas espagnol du tout mais ton accent semble bon si je me fie aux autres commentaires. Alors encore 5 étoiles pour toi

[frozenwhitebear]

aww, that's terrific!!! I'm missing words - you did it your way!! and the "r" ist fine, lol! ;o)

[tobestill]

don't laugh at me, please! lol. Thanks for the comment :^)

[frozenwhitebear]

eheh, no, por qué?? esto es fabuloso, sinceramente!! :)

[onkelbuke]

GREAT JOB!!!! wow, and faved!

I love Joan Baiz, saw her 2 times live here in GErmany, have the same picture in as a poster in my room on the wall, awesome!!!

Greetings, Christopher

[tobestill]

Thank you ;-)
