At last, a real voice! A voice that sounds real! I've been searching long and hard for a voice that actually rings true. I thought we'd run out of singers.
Thank you Eric for your kind words, and also for enjoy my MUSIC. But no I'm just another old man who wants to share my "Joy of music" with other regardless of how bad my voice is but I take it with pride because it's given to me
By who knows what :-))
You're inspiring me to try to attempt this "Try to remember" too.
Hi napman99, thank you so much. Checked out your vids, wow, what a beautiful voice. Folks, if you like good singing with guitar check this guy out. Cheers mate, best, Eric.
This such a wonderful song Eric and you performed it brilliantly my friend...I especially loved your guitar technique on this one....I never could get that right hand finger style down but you seem to have mastered it....the song is perfect for your voice too....well done!
Thank you for sharing your talent! I played Matt in The Fantasticks, my all time favorite musical, this song brings so many good memories. That was amazing, thank you so much!!
Hi DLeeGuitarist, thanks very much. I don't use tabs, don't understand them. However, I'm sure you can get them online. Simply write the name of the song in the search box and add the word tabs, and I'm sure a whole load of sites will come up. Best, Eric.
obscuramusic, hi Chris, thanks for your lovely comment. I checked out your vid, beautiful. Hey folks, check this talented guitarist out. Take care, Eric.
Hi bill9067, firstly I really don't have the time to teach you to play this or any other song, and it would be too difficult via the internet, secondly you don't say what instrument you want to learn it for anyway. I think the best thing for you to do is to write the name of the song in the Google search box together with the words: lyrics and chords and loads of pages will come up to help you. Also if you don't know the shapes of guitar chords, you can find these online also. Good luck, Eric.
Hey, Eric! Looks like my buddy Alex beat me to it! That opening was so well said, and the song! Absolute magic. Beautifully sung, and played. 5 stars!!! :)
singingkid, hi Greg, thanks so much for comment and rating, I'm touched. Both you and Alex (BlueEyes0770) are two of the best singers on YouTube, and together? Wow! Keep well, Eric.
Hi SirLanceot, no worries, I'm very grateful for your comment which I understood perfectly. Not sure I'm Presidential material though, he he. Take care, Eric.
Eric, you did it again. Superb signing and outstanding guitar playing. I must say, Eric, it wasn't until I listened to this song, even though I have heard snippets over the years without really paying that much attention to it - until now. Yes, you are 110% correct. We have taken modern technology for granted and we really do need to take a reality check and remember that life can be SIMPLE without all this modern fuss.. . . Keep them coming, Eric. All the best.
Great singing Eric well done again ! not half bad on the spanish guitar and more talents as yet unseen what about mocking up the sand dance with your twin brother , hows that for a chalange come on you cand do it regards Peter
brcp4321, hi Peter, do you know what, that's not a bad idea. I'll really give that one some thought. Should be good for a laugh anyway. Thanks so much for the compliment. Best, Eric.
brcp4321, hi Peter, this is the second reply to your comment posted some hours later than the first. Re sand dance. I was about to get out of the bath this evening when, like Archimedes, I had a 'eureka' moment, for I realised that to do the sand dance I would have have to move from side to side, thereby requiring the split to move from side to side as well. Not impossible, but very, very tricky, and very time consuming. Mmmm? Nice idea though. Best, Eric.
solsleuteltje, hi Gerda, thanks so much for your comment. Yes, it was written somewhere about 1960 as you say, and the lyrics were by Tom Jones born in Texas. All the best, Eric.
casetone2514, hi Tony, thanks so much mate. Yes, me too. It was one of those songs filed away in the dusty attic of one's subconscious. Keep well, Eric.
