You are faking it too much in the lower dynamics, louder passages are potentially great, but you need to pay more attention to tone quality [don't "act out" so much]
dont use four letter words, it's not professional
the tempo is way too slow...it's the wrong concept for this song, which needs to be threatening...nice try though

best, you're talented, but really dumb [c'est bien domage...]
@toelsewhere Nice comment loser. If you have nothing good to say... This came up on a hopkins play list, and honestly I thought it was fantastic! Been trying to do this kind of singing/playing for a while and it isn't very easy! Once again fan-fing-tastic!
I think this singer has the blues for real. I get the feeling she is going to go ballistic any sec and smash the guitar in anger. Some great singing moments. A lot of feeling.
you don't have to play like Lightnin' Hopkins, or anyone else, blues is for playing in your own way. i liked the voice and the singing, hats off to the passion... (and you sure are pretty)! keep it up. greetings from Creta, Greece.
@kid868 no I haven't got anything on youtube, but it ain't me who's whining dude. You're the one offending her while it's easy when you don't even have some work of your own.
The microphone sucks, but sure did I like that cover^^ way groovier than the original, I'd almost say I like your style better :$ keep going, this is great ;o
But don't let them dudes bring you down... But don't give me this "Yeah... uhmm.. I know it sucks... but anyway..."crap either. Ain't gonna tell me you put somethin' on youtube when you seriously think it sucks.
But nice tryin'. Nobody actually PLAYS Lightnin, everybody just tries to play. So well done. And nice finally seeing a girl playin' Hopkins/Blues.
Funny to promise not all of your work sucks btw :)
holy shit! I think it's funny that people get balls when they can hide behind a computer screen ;) you're vocals kick ass and the "screaming" gives it feeling and soul
you were wrong sarahborrello. This did not suck at all. You infused it with Sara-ness.

I stumbled into this while searching for O'l Lightnin's version, boy was I glad to have found it.
No it doesn't suck..It's really cool.
Of course it doesn't sound just like Lightnin', he recorded it over 60 years ago.
You got soul...this cannot be taught.
Something about a young lady of your generation recording a Lightnin song like this just warms my heart to no end and gives me hope.
Keep it up Sarah, don't stop!
