The Build Up- Kings of Convenience cover

[SirWrighteous]

I was skeptical to hear any type of cover for this song since it is one of my favorites. But I can honestly say that you've done it justice. Wonderful work here.

[pablosalmon01]

Amazing Kiersten!

[yzmor]

Beautiful voice and chord work! Sounds exactly like the original.

[gauchochizler]

write your own song

[jhowardwhite]

This is lovely...

Been figuring the some out to do myself with my girlfriend.

There is one part during the end sequence where the chords change (as far as I can figure out to an Amaj7 and G#min7) look out for it :)

[jhowardwhite]

oops... figuring the *song* out.

[illtumbleforya]

what is that chord you use because all the tabs and stuff iv found sounds wrong and yours sounds right.

A ? F#m

Worn into the vaguely announced

I would be very grateful to find out. Like your stuff btw.

[sendz1981]

Wow, this is first time i've heard this song and it gave me goose bumps! Amazin song and voice to match!

[TheLKNMusicPage]

What I like about your covers is that you don't always follow the path most travelled. Some of the songs you have covered are not familiar to me at all and yours are the first versions of them I hear. This is one such song. Beautifully done. Love it. Chris (LKN Music)

[jm8985]

Great performance! Can you play more Elliott Smith?

[cewbeagappic]

[brennuhhh1]

more proof that all the best singers come from minnesota :D

[itsallPINK92]

your voice makes every song wonderful. sometimes i go back and listen to the originals and never like them nearly as much as i love your covers of the songs. i've also bought all of your songs off itunes!

[belleamant]

[MrKutze]

Hey, that's nice. You have it upon, as we say in Germany!

Hey, I like this kind of genre but it would be kinda nice to hear a different kind of mood other than the beautiful, mournful stuff you're used to doing. Just an idea. :) Either way.... beautiful stuff. :)
