  • bloody brilliant.

  • Anyone who can pay tribute to Oscar Wilde and comment on the sad state of our current "music" has my respect. Your soul is showing, sir, and that is a very, very, good thing.

  • This guy...is freaking unique and special...really....He have a freaking talent, but dont even think on making money with it...and he sings every song in a special way I cant explain

  • There are few things in life where I can believe the truth is being told , in this case ,with this piece ,I know for sure the truth is being told . I have fallen foul to the blatant superficial imagery that is brainwashed into us on a daily basis many times and I will fall again .In saying that ,I do my best to stay true to art . I think the way, may be not to try and impress but to create with no need for applause ,great song

  • very nice my friend

  • Thank you Colin!

    Great piece of sonwriting and same goes for the interpretation!

  • Amazing! And I couldn't agree more with the lyrics!

  • Powerful words- and truth.

  • I love the notes at the beginning of this melody. :)

  • I smoked a cigarette and heard it second time to get more the text.

    It´s lyric about the emptyness of our time and of so many people. Sometimes a bit rude perhaps but right and deep. I agree how you see this empty material world and beginning distance to the young ppl when one becomes older. Anyway, what I understood or misunderstood :

    I have a Donovan feeling hearing your song, and that´s the best what one can say, I guess....

  • The music is wunderbar !! I think also the lyrics but my English is rather bad, typical Continental European, I know ..I know..

    All together very touching and impressing, and very well sung too !!!

  • i really like this way of singing :)

  • wow, nice job. If I could make one suggestion it would be to frame the shot so that viewers can see your awesome guitar playing. I think that would make for a more (visually)interesting video. Otherwise, awesome song.

  • i OVE FOLK MUSIC IT TELLS A STORY.Unlike alot of the kill yer momma stuff nowadays.Thanks i enjoyed it do you have a cd?

  • Sorry, got wound up in the discussion. Do like the song very much Colin. Thought provoking and interesting for sure. Also lovely. And I keep a quote from Oscar Wilde on my channel.

  • I try not to judge other people's artistic preferences. Not every kind of art appeals to everbody. NJ is not my favorite, but I have a daughter, raised on the best of every kind of music, and she adores Celine Dion. Who am I to say she is wrong? It's the music that makes her feel good. It speaks to her. I don't like it, but I don't have to. We all have different life experiences and dream different dreams. So it should be. Polished or rough, it's all music. I am thankful for choices.

  • I like Norah Jones! I'm not so sure about Celine Dion lol

    gerdenshed...

  • Five stars, Colin! You sent me a link to this video and I finally found my way back to the site to get it and I'm so happy that I did. Your experience at the concert and your opinions are yours and obviously valid, but to turn them into art is the true artist's work and your song is great.

    I love the Oscar Wilde reference and after I listen to the song more, I'll have more to say.

    To those who rage on, I want to ask them: What have you created lately? It takes a lot of guts to share yr art.

  • Why would I want my next tour "sold out" Forrest91? Do you measure success by popularity? Of course you do...that's why you said it! Artistic integrity means more than material wealth but never mind... I don't wish to argue with you as many morons seem to do on the internet. Suffice it to say that the song speaks for itself and if you and Miss Moneybags Jones don't like it...well go and preen yourselves in a mirror and leave dreamers like me alone eh?

  • i have the colin fudd,,,i mean rudd blues.thankfully that,s the only SHIT i,ve ever heard from him and hopefully the last.And yea colin,,your next tour is sold out i hear.where is it? your basement with you as a audience.write ON.LOSER.Would you hear a real artist downing some one else?,,Oh yea,Dylan did it all the time.Get a LIFE

  • We're from the same generation, so I "get it" listening to your great song. There's alot of food for thought there. You're very talented, thanks for sharing your music.

  • hOLY SHIT!!That was the best song ever..You are a great writer.Who would have ever thunk it?You are a person that will will be talked about(in the best way) for generations..You just made my night...

  • Also, Your video would be a great video response to TalkMusicBiz's video "passion of Music" - "why most people are getting into the biz" Passion or Money. Anyway, you are a very good singer songwriter, thanks for the invite.

  • First let me say,very nice melody & vocals. I will have to check out your channel & subscribe-As far as Norah Jones,like you said,"Norah just happened to be on TV that night!",I guess it could apply to whoever the shoe fits, she was just the catalyst to your song. However, here is an interesting note on Norah,hubby shared w/ me-you can go to SFGate dot com look for-Norah Jones Goes Punk Rock-, "Even Norah Jones has seemingly gotten sick of Come Away With Me." Interesting.

  • I couldn't agree with you more Colin. I think that half or more singers are now doing what they do just for money, trend, pure entertainment and fame. Whilst the "real" singers and who are "starving" but expressing their raw feelings, their real thoughts, their passion out to the people who are mostly uninterested. It's kinda sad really.

  • I give up!

  • good and sweet song for the queen Norah

  • Stunning !!! Meaning no disrespect to the other original songs I've heard on YouTube, but this is the most incredible original creation I've ever heard. You have created an absolutely brilliant piece of art.

  • and just when I was considering buying a tic. for N,J..... A lovely song! Thanks.

  • I think you could substitute just about any current pop act, and it would still ring true. Really great song, with very intelligently written lyrics and sung with alot of passion!! excellent stuff :)

  • Verry nice music !.... Thanks !

  • Well Raymond,perhaps targeting is always unfair to the recipient and i appreciate your reservation but i can only tell it as i see it. I'm afraid that i don't trust any artist who cultivates an image which just about includes all popular entertainers these days......this is crazy I know but that's the way it is....Norah just happened to be on TV that night!

  • A great song, Colin, though I'm not sure whether Norah Jones is a fair target. Can't say I'm very familiar with her work, but having had the experience of attending an unforgettable concert by her father in Varanasi, I'm sure some of his greatness must have been passed down to the next generation.

  • I love the words:

    Just go right ahead an make all the bad mistakes

    No matter what a mess of your life that makes

    Don't you ever back a away in fear.

  • Love Norah Jones ~ great job!

    Kris

  • LOL... I think you should listen to the words again mate :D

  • Oh, okay, thanks for the hint. Just listened to the song while browsing, so my comment was for the music only ;) However I still like her stuff. In my opinion she's got passion in her music, but she's a shy woman ;o) Audience, well, might looks smug, but you don't know what they actually feel while listening to her songs. We cannot look behind the masks.. What do you think?

    Kris

  • That's true - and that's why I try not to judge ANYONE - Peace & Love :)

  • Another beautiful song Colin, thank you :) Peace & Love, Hassan.

  • Great Job. Sounded very good

  • Very Cool! Yea, Norah ain't half bad... For me the first singer crush was ONJ in the 70's

  • I've listened to all of your music and this is my favorite. Had they tried to be, Van Gogh and Oscar Wilde could not have been more misunderstood. As a painter, I have found that acceptance of creative personalities is spotty at best. Thank you, for what felt to me, like a tribute to those of us who have chosen to pursue careers that are slightly off the beaten path. Imagination is precious.

  • well done great lyrics
