Hey, nice work but you should tone it up a bit. Maybe its just me, but I can't appreciate what you are doing with the backing track getting in the way.
Its actually to see how complex the bass lines in this song. I have a Hofner as well and I don't think any other bass sounds quite as warm and pure. Great job.
@MrMellotronik you are a fantastic musician!!! Could you please tell me what amp you are using... I see a vox just like the Beatles but what version is yours?? Is It a AC30??
hey man!! Awesome cover!!! I have just one comment.... In the first chorus, i think paul does some octaves like the piano, after this he does like you!! What do you think about it?

Astonishing sound! If you put together Hofner and Vox, it's guaranteed you'll get an awesome sound.

@Matoso15 Thanks for your comments.
In the version of "one" album the bass doesn't play the octaves but the piano yes.
What version do you have ?

@MrMellotronik
Hey man!! how r u? A bunch of cool videos do you have, it's a pitty that i don't understand french to hear your lyrics!!!!
In the version that is in my favorites, I think it's can be heard the octaves....but it's just a guess.
I know music but not like you
hugs!!

@Matoso15 Thanks for your comments about my videos. The lyrics of "Toucher la lumières" are about dreams.
Maybe you're alright about the octaves, it's really hard to hear all the details in old records.
