I really enjoyed that, i was on the phone and having a discussion about clearing out the Summer House, which put that song in mind so youtubed it and found you, Divine Comedy are astounding the lyrics are unique, your voice puts me in mind on some notes of Badly Drawn Boy, dunno why but it does are you from WYorks/Lancs area btw - don't have to tell me, just wanted to say that was lovely to hear :D
Glad you enjoyed it! I've been meaning to cover a Badly Drawn Boy song (probably 'About A Boy') but I'm from much further North than Lancs! I must hide my Scottish accent well.
I've been working out the first few chords of 'In pursuit of happiness'. which I think is a great song. My wife heard me playing it this morning and described it as a racket! Back to the drawing board I guess :-)
I'll give it a go. It's one of my favourites too! From the moment he sings "Will we be that disappointed or sad?" right through to "This life is the best we've ever had", it's just sublime.
Thanks Santiago! Hope you are well too. I tried to play your arrangement of Bach's Allemande from Lute suite 1 yesterday and couldn't even get close to it! I was left awestruck at how effortlessly you do it - I'm recommending your posts to anyone interested in exceptional classical guitar play.
Really cool cover.
Brilliant song - well sung.
Tempo could possibly have been a little quicker, but top job - well done!

I reckon I'm quite good with accents and I had yours pegged for Liverpool without a doubt! Oops! :-)

I just let a perfectly good dinner get cold to listen to that :) I'm a new convert to DC but that was great.

Glad you enjoyed it! That's an excellent version of Blackbird you've posted too. It was on my list of songs to learn and sing but you beat me to it!

Top cover as usual, it's nice to hear some of the less well known DC songs getting an airing on the tube.
