Sufjan Stevens - Casimir Pulaski Day - Cover

[Strider1526]

Stunning cover sir. What type of audio setup do you have if you don't mind my asking?

[whirlybirdfilms]

@Strider1526 This is a few years ago now. I was using a Sampson Mic and Ableton on my mac. Maton Guitar and a little reverb and EQ.

[PotatoBeenz]

perfectionnnnnn

[PassionPretty26]

*Gasp*

I die to hear a good cover, and this just killed me.

Seriously, stunning job, and you have the perfect voice for it.

Appreciate you posting this.

Thank you.

You really nailed this song - you fit the guitar perfectly to your voice and made the story your own. Very moving to hear the first time, and keeps getting better with each new listen. You have great talent; thank you for sharing.

Thanks Miss R. :)

[mercurybiatch]

Very very very nice Cover :)

Your voice and guitar playing is great!

Maybe you could help me out with the guitar playing because I only know the chords, i mean it sounds okay, but those additional notes you playing are missing. Only if you have time and want of course :)!

Anyway, great cover :D!

[elizabethlacey77]

hey... as creepy as this sounds... i wish you could sit by my bed and sing me to sleep haha

[thegraystate]

aaaahaha! That's creepily sweet. Any time you're in Australia let me know and I'll stop by with my guitar! :) Love the channel pic by the way.

[margieisepic]

I really did not expect that voice to come out of that body. You proved me wrong. That was beautiful.
