Fantastic version Mr 8th. I really love your voice on this - seems like less reverb than some of your other stuff. You have a great voice, so don't drown it in reverb.
This song of Derek's really is a classic and you did a really good job with it.
Great photos too. Did you just trawl the net for all those? All the best. Jock
Thanks Jock! I finally broke into my piggy bank and bought a small preamp and an interface. I was using a stage amp and a computer mic and the sound was all over the place. I agree with you sometimes the reverb just got crazy! The pics are a combination, some from the net and some from a recent trip to NYC. Thanks again and I hope things are good with you too.
Your welcome, my pleasure to sing such a great song. Please dont be a stranger here on YT. Get out your pad and pencil and start cranking them out again. We all look forward to that!
Sounds better and better every time I listen to this.. Thanks again so much this is beautiful. I am loving some of these images you found also... kinda wish I had of taken some of them!
I'm flattered that you didn't forget about me also! I know I haven't been around...
Thank you!! I thought the song deserved special attention. It really got to me the first time I heard Derek sing it. It's always nice to hear such great comments. The pictures do help communicate the message but all the credit to Derek. He paints pictures with his words. He's really very talented. I just followed what he gave me. But thank you!
This was worth the wait :) I love your artistic expression in this video...it's a side of you that I have never seen before but you did a really wonderful job on this. All the emotions within the song are seen.
The dark feeling of depression...sense of isolation...the beginnings of letting go of grief and moving on, it's all well conveyed in your visual images.
Oh, and you did a fine job of singing and playing your guitar on this one, too :)
Real fine cover of a great song. I like the honesty in Derek's stuff. I enjoyed this!

Thanks so much. This is just so well written it plays itself. You just have to try and not get in the way of the song.
