Nice job. I love doin' this song too. Seems most people seem to stumble over pronouncing "papeete". Sounds like maybe you do too. Many people sing it as pa-pa-te bay. It's actually just one word pronounced pa-pay-ay-tay. Not a criticism, just thought you might like to know.
@anotherbaldguy heh, yeah.. i was just goin from the tab i read. been a real long time since i had listened when i recorded this. i also mispronounce Mar-kay-sas as Mar-key-sas. just when you think you're being smart life proves you wrong. thanks for watchin' though.
Your version of this may be in E flat, but I'm not gonna kill you for it. You do that little riff, which makes the thing so much better. I've been itching to try this song in drop D, but I don't know that it'd work. Still, your version's got you 5*, a faving, and a new subscriber.
I'm with falconman - thats good observation. Your finger movement is good - i am still struggling with the shifts - new player here at 42 yrs- just picked the box up to start playing -tough on the old fingers man so I appreciate anyone who can play a full song without a crunched cord like i keep doing
Very Nice. If you don't mind some constructive criticism, I would suggest not stringing out the words so much when you sing the song. If you shorten the words it will be much more crisp and clear.
Nice job..good improvising with the vocals to keep inside your range.

I can be sloppy even though I've been playing for about 16 yrs. Glad you like the vid, though.
