  • Bravo. Beautifully done.

  • Very very good

  • looks like that woman from wallace and gromit

  • That was incredible! I wish I could experience the joy of being able to play this song and sing it at the same time! It must feel wonderful!

  • You are fantastic!

  • Awesome cover :) It's great to see people keeping nick drakes music going.

  • wow, well done

  • Excellent - must be one of the best covers I've heard of a great song.

  • perfect!

  • Wow! Really good cover.

  • This is my favourite song of Nick's. It's such a shame most of the tabs on the internet are so incredibly inaccurate. How did you learn it? :)

  • Super! You play and sing very nice! Always nice to see another Nick Drake fan.

  • Epic

  • You should seriously calm your vibrato down, please, youre destroying the mood in the song.. Its good, and you can def. sing.. but as I said..

  • Youre just amazing. Greetings from Córdoba Capital, Argentina.

    Gera.

    Nick drake is sacred. I usually get upset when people try to cover him - but you've done a lovely job of it.

  • Well done!

  • class!

  • Just revisting your Drake covers :)... I've been trying to re-learn this one. I'm almost there, but the last bit of the intro is giving me trouble! Well, I used to be able to do it, so I'll keep trying! You always played this one very beautifully. x

  • Very enjoyable. Thank you.

  • Great job! Truly inspiring!

  • Great Voice..look at my songs..

  • your finest hour

  • fucking great

  • Wow.... breath takaing.

  • amazing!!!! Nick Drake lives!!!!

  • wow, beautiful

  • Brilliant! I honestly thought I was listening to a recording of the original when you started. It's no surprise you have so many views! ALL STARS to YOU!

  • really great cover, how long did it take you to learn?

  • you have an amazing voice, Lisa. its very smooth and mellow. and you are definitely a great guitarist. PLEASE write some originals too! i'd love to hear you doing your own style!

  • great Lisa Very nice guitar !!!! Lovely voice I first heard Nick Drake in 1970 !!!!

  • Your voice is truely beautiful and you are great at guitar. I don't think I could ever do that myself. How come no videos from you in so long?

  • Very nice, Lisa. Your playing and singing are wonderful.

  • Great!!! me gustó mucho!

  • awesome playing

  • you have a beautiful voice and have done great justice to a wonderful song...

  • Christ. I think I might have to break up with my girlfriend after this.

  • Don't do it! Love is way to beautiful...

  • This is really well played and sung.

  • Loved it : )

  • nice

  • Beautiful Lisa!

  • GREAT! : D

  • is this animated..

  • brilliant, really captured the essence of this song.

  • This is truly a great version!

  • i love this song with a female voice

  • That was just wonderfull. It put a smile on my face. Your tone on both the guitar and vocal is just spot on.

  • I'm amazed tout, this is accurate and sounds very beautiful and emotional.

    And with only a guitar.

    And I have to admit that I usually don't like covers.

  • covering Nick Drake! impressive!

  • fucking class just fucking class.... thank you..

  • hey, you made the hairs stand up. your voice gets right to the spot. you play well too.

  • just beautiful! you have brightened up my day!

  • this is really good, fantastic singing. but, you made the same mistake i did when learning this song with the right hand. in the bass, alternate the E and A strings in 8th notes. actually makes it a lot easier to play too because you don't have to try to do so much with your index finger.

  • very very beautiful... wow

  • This is truly a beautiful performance. Thank you.

  • Wow, if you ever put out a cd let me know. I will buy the first 10. I could listen to you all night long. Wait a minute I did.

  • I'll buy cd's 11-20 :D

  • Fantastic! Covering any Nick Drake song is some undertaking given his brilliance, but you did it justice. Great!

  • guitar playing is good, singing is great- soulful performance!

  • this is really good but you need to keep the A note with your thumb going the whole time.

  • WOW

  • really nice and sensitive nick drake cover, well done ;)

  • Music is food for the soul, thanks for the free lunch.

  • who spamed one and only totally positive and honest comment !!!

  • thanks very much, I'll give it a try:) xx

  • beautiful, I love it! Is the tuning bebebe as usual? I'd love to learn this. xx

  • Thanks you! :-) No, the tunning for this song is EADF#BE....he used this tunning for Thought of Mary Jane too! x

  • Xellent i would love to see your first attempt

  • great job.

  • An amazing version of one of my favorite Nick Drake songs. Very impressive singing and finger picking--that is very hard to do at the same time. I'm sure Drake, who rarely performed in concert, could not have performed it better in a live setting.

  • Lisa, that was simply stunning!

  • Very very nice you're great!!

  • Five'd and fav'd.

    Perfect, and the date it was submitted is uncanny to me.

    I'm going to rip this from Youtube, transcribe to mp3 and put on my player. It's more than worth the effort.

  • faved it girly

  • love your nick drake work. any cahnce of hering you do little green by joni mitchell? keep up the godo work!

  • I'd love to hear you do Wild Mountain Tyme!!

  • Beautiful - Normally, I hate Nick Drake covers, but this has to be the best I've heard. Thanks for posting!

  • I can almost taste ur passion Lisa..thank u so much for sharing this wonderful mans' music. Warm hugs from southern Cali

  • I have been thinking about learning this song and now i saw you i definetely decided to do it, thanks for helping and inspiring.

    Ciao.

  • Wonderful! Looking at your Drake, Joni and Sandy Denny covers, I think you should check out Terry Callier. Quite an amazing artist, and in the same vein but different since he was an African-American doing anglo folk with jazzier vocals.

    He's also much more popular in your neck of the woods than over here in the states. The English have good taste, I guess. ;)

    Look for "New Folk Sound" by Callier, and after that, "Occasional Rain." I know you'll love him.

  • Beautiful, You sure have talent, great soft voice. keep up the great work!

  • I really liked it. Nice work.

    Chris.

  • think your great what tuning do u play this in thanx

  • I wish I could get that picking. You lay off on the thumb when you let the high E and B ring. I wish I could work out what you're doing. Really good BTW.

  • Stunning , superb guitarist and singer. 5 *

    Duncan

  • amazing cover ! :)

  • This si stunning

    Are you a sandy denny fan? There's a really well used and effecive vibrato your employee to your voice. Do you sing live?

    Real talent. I'm gonna have a a listen to your fairport cover next.

    Eddie

  • Cross Nick Drake And Joan Baez and you get this!:D Wonderful girl. Im impressed as hell

  • I am impressed to see someone who can finger pick to this standard, it's becoming very rare. You're playing is highly impressive as is your voice. You've even convinced me to grow my nails back so that I can start picking the guitar as good as I used to, so I hit the jelly tomorrow! Thank you for posting your Vid's as I enjoyed watching them. Regards Chris.

  • Absolutely beautiful playing and singing Lisa - 5*'s from me. Trying to learn this one myself to hopefully add to my channel soon.

  • Wow, I don't care what you say, to me that was perfect!

  • Thank you very much! :-D

  • Einfach wundervoll.

  • Vielen Dank! :)

  • I love this song! I remember hearing it a while ago and loving it. You play and sing amazingly and I'm so jealous of your finger-picking! Great work!

  • beautiful

  • nice job :)

  • Brilliant, really brilliant! Guitar playing is top rate, and your voice is lovely! Best cover of this song I've ever heard, to say the least. Where did you find the tabs? None that I've come across are even close to accurate!

  • Thank you for sharing your versions of such great songs. I love your ND covers and the way your voice lends a different colour to the songs. You have pretty nimble fingers on the guitar too, you make me practice more!

    Keep up the good work Lisa

  • Damn' fine, Lisa! I'll sign up to all those who've said they don't normally appreciate hearing these covers, but you did Nick's memory full justice. Keep it up!

  • Were you live?

    I'm gonna ask your hand...

  • Marry me, and I mean it!

  • I'm 47, first heard nd 1977, listend to fine hippie guitarists trying to play this (myself included since) yours is the best.

  • I love the grimace as you hit the wrong notes

    on the first version.This is a real step up.

    One of my favourite songs from one of my favourite albums,and you've done it proud!

  • brilliant Lisa..I so wish I had your talent....!!! I really hope you are pursuing this...you do have a uniqueness to your voice, and a real substance behind it..I wish you luck....right enough compliments for one day!!!

  • I'm not a fan of Nick Drake covers in general, they seem such pale imitations. But this is an exception. Your guitar playing is first class and your voice is so beautiful. Keep up with the music, you're so much better than much of the dross around today!!

  • Thank you very much for such an encouraging comment! :)

  • Good job!

  • i agree with comment below, also i like the way your right hand moves when you play, most people hands look stiff and ungraceful when they play, but your hands are nice and relaxed, it adds to your performance

  • you are the shit,a girl who likes nick drake and can nail his stuff, my girl freind looks at me like im retarted when i listen to nick, makes me wish i learned how to fingerpick when i started playin,but im tryin

  • beautiful,reminds me of the great judy sill.Check out Wasp in a jar by scott matthews,luv ya!!!

  • you are so great!!

  • Loved it! your voice, your playing everything. Really inspiring. What's next?

  • Your interpretation is incredible!Usually I don't enjoy listening to my favorite songs played by You Tube users,but THIS is SO GOOD!It's so hard to play-and yet you do it almost perfectly,you keep the rhythm,melody,and everything combined,even if it sometimes "drops" a bit.The music just FLOWS out of you naturally and yet you're so focused!And I love your voice,makes me think about Woodstock:).I've favorited this song and keep coming back.Good luck with the music!

  • Thank you so very much for such an encouraging and kind comment! I'm glad you like my version of this song. Your comment has made my day! Thank you for your words! :)

  • very beautiful, i love the song =D

  • amazing i keep coming back for more! and thanks for the tab :-}

  • mi piace (this is fine!)

  • Have'nt been here for a while, still as brilliant as I remember !

  • Stunning. I've never heard this song before but I love it.

  • beautiful. really well done. you have a lovely voice and a talent with a guitar!

  • Beautiful. I wondered how you were going to tackle the missing 'cello but your soaring vocals were a heavenly replacement. Look forward to checking the rest of your videos out. Peace

  • Wow sister-drakaholic! You've come a long way to matching that sweet voice with some snazzy pickin'. This take is excellent.

  • Great interpretation of a mystical, beautiful Drake track...Superb Lisa4guitar!

  • sweet.. i tried this song a little awhile ago when i first learned it, still have the vid up but it's not that great. peep if you'd like though. i enjoy your version

  • wonderful, great to hear a girls voice on a wonderfully complex but simple song

    blu x

  • A pleasure on all counts!

  • excellent, well done indeed

  • Great pickin'Lisa.

  • Loved it!

    Be sure to check out Nick Drakes "new" album 'Family Tree' is you haven't done so already, its pretty awesome! I think you should do a cover of 'Blossom' by Nick

  • Very close second one Lisa. Nice! It can be a chore sometimes getting "the right take" I KNOW! but in the end it's all worth it. Perfection here concerning Nick's music is paramount--maybe one day I might have a vid up again...maybe not...I envy you. Wish me luck.
