The guitar part is not so easy as it sounds - very unforgiving if you hit a 'wrong' note.

Nicely played with 'feel'

Hi Sonja

Sorry I didn't get back to you sooner, have had a few family problems. I'm so happy that you liked my version and enjoyed the pics, I thought the idea of dogs was kind of neat, especially when they're man's best friend.

Best wishes

...and I didn't notice you weren't singing the correct lyrics at the beginning. Well, enough said...but you did a brilliant job both vocally and musically on this. This slightly amended version will go along side your first upload in our faves., then hopefully a few more will listen to this splendid cover.

Cheers mate

Hi Mark

Do you know, years ago in my band (and we used to play some real big venues as a support/warm up act, although we had our following as well, I think there were about six of them...joke) I used to forget the words numerous times in songs, and made the lyrics up, sometimes quite filthy words, and the crowd didn't notice...they still applauded, they were were at that time state of the art rigs...I think the sound was dead great....just like sound you create here, I'm in the crowd now...

[oldstrat1]

Cheers James,

Do you know, I don't thinki I'm cracking up, there seems to be a few versions floating around, Mr Taylor decided to change the lyrics back in the 70's, don't know why because the were Carole's in the first place and he now sings her version. I feel at little bit like confused.com at the mo lol.

Cheers

Mark :)
