It's not that bad. But the vocal harmonies would sound much better if the singers were able to hold their notes and make their voices really resound, like a string section.
Hmm, Not bad a bit too slow and mellow. There is a cover of this song by a musician named Jerry Chapman on his album Rumors of my Death, which has a slow pace similar to this version but with heavier sound and a Gothic style which I found be a good match.
a really nice version steven,its a nice change,take no notice of that tosspot shroomski,yes everyone has an opinion but if its negative he should just pass by..well done steven..pete
thank you pete i dont mind opinions but when he is calling names thats when it becomes sad thanks for the support my friend he just attacked gil for no reason he is an idiot
Wow.. the best of the best guys.. This one left me just amazed.. and will have to Join the first one on My Vlog..Incredible work on this one Gil..Loved it
Your voices compliment one another; awesome synergy here. I was originally very moved by Steven's version of this song and will eventually post a vocal and guitar accompaniment. I had to stop what I was doing the moment I heard Steven's cover -- it just moved me beyond explanation and obviously it effected you in a similar way. This is one of my favorite songs ever recorded and this take on it is extraordinary.
The original is a great song and has always been a favorite of mine. Then when I heard Steven's cover I was amazed at how he transformed it into an entirely different song and mood!
LOL...that always reminds me of that SNL skit with Will Farell and the cowbell...classic! I thought about adding music to this too but decided that Steven has created the perfect mood for his rendition and I could easily ruin that with anything I add!
You're right. I like it better the more I listen. Thanks again for the encouragement, I was hesitant but I love this song and your version is beautiful Steven!!
Hey, Steven and Gil...great vid, there! No reason to fear the inevitable. I'm spending a lot of time visiting a relative in a nursing home. Age is the great leveler..no matter what distinctions one has had in life, we all face the same challenges as advanced age and death approach. Thanks for the inspiration! :) Jack
Thanks Jack! Your words ring very true. I knew someone who had great monetary wealth in his life yet when he reached the end none of that mattered to him. He surrounded himself with photographs of his most cherished moments in life. So let's live for today and create thos moments for ourselves!! Steven did a wonderful job on this!
He sure did! When you think of all the time a person has here on earth, the most important time is that which he/she spends with others.
Things lose their meaning and value..the things that stand out are how we spent our time not only with loved ones and family, but perfect strangers greeted with a smile. :)Jack
Wow, this is stunning! I was literally spellbound by this one. I love vocal harmony, and you two sound fabulous together!! I've always loved how Steven does this song so much that, to be honest, I worried when I heard something had been added; but I should have known...the addition of your vocal, Gil, was exquisite!
You woried? Well that makes two of us then. It was a real risk for me to take this on. I sent Steven a rough demo and he liked it and encouraged me. Steven has such a beautiful voice that I truly was concerened about ruining his song. Overall it turned out well I think and actually I like it more with each listen. If only we could do it in a recording studio!!
Wow, the two of you in a recording studio...I would like to be a mouse in the corner for that one! You are right about Steven's voice - but your addition was done with just the right touch. Your harmony really enhanced his vocal performance. I forgot to mention, the video was well done, too - the whole effect is mesmerizing.
Hey my friend. I already sub to you!! Thanks for the comment. I don't get around much because I have time constraints and also I get literally looded with video shares every day!! You probably know what I mean! Rock On!!
Yeah I wanted to make clear that this really is a Steven creation and I am just a backup singer here. Also, it's the first time I have sourced video from outside and found this great open source video website. I felt that time lapse was the way to go for this song.
Thank You my friend for the encouragement. You created something really special here and I risked really screwing it up but overall I think it sounds good. It actually sounds better with each listen in my opinion. You have such a beautiful voice I was afarid of masking it but you still come through great!!
Emotional.
