I'm trying to learn this and have looked at dozens of guitar cover versions, but this is the best....and an amazing voice!!! This is not an easy song to sing and play, but you do it sooooo well!!! Thumbs-up and a sub...I will enjoyably search your other songs!!!
reallly like this song, keep coming back to me, someday i'll do a reply to it(prob not for a while yet) I watach u progress with Nick drake (my hero!) i love all the songs you do, u should be playing cambridge or glasto folky tent :)
I prefer your version ! You need to write original songs as you have a great emotin whenyou sing and are very expressive at interpretting people' songs. This is key. If you can write brilliant songs and perform them too, you will be the next folk surprise on the scene ! Keep it up ! You have star quality !
To those of you commenting that it's too much like the original, if you listen to her other videos and actually pay attention, you'll see that this is just the way she sounds. This seems to fit her natural style. I could name LOADS of musicians around today who sound nearly identical to another artist. That does *not* mean they're not talented or amazing. What matters is that she's put her heart and soul into this song (and all her others) and she sounds pretty damn amazing while doing it.
You have such a great tone to your voice. You do the best cover I've heard of this song. I also really love your Nick Drake covers. I don't meet many people that have even heard of him much less cover several songs. I just learned pink moon it's in a crazy tuning!! Keep up the good work.
quite lovely ... but perhaps you could make it more your own. Sounds more like an excellent imitation of Regina S., who has a stunning voice. You also have a gorgeous voice ... love the tremulous version of 'Song to the Siren' you also did. Thanks for posting your vids.
Loved it! edgy and modern. Really like the direction you're taking. It amazing to see your talent blossoming along the side of the road to new challenges. Don't forget Joni tho! ;)
Excellent Lisa! You really express the underlying emotions in everything you sing, and it makes me want to hear more. Well done, and I hope you keep playing for us. You've got me more interested in Regina Spektor too.
Another GEM of a song that fits your style well.I prefer this on guitar.Reminds me in patches of Joan Armatrading.This is heading for a save in the Favs too!!!
Im a massive Regina Spektor fan, so covers rarely do her justice, but you've totally nailed this song. You have the perfect voice for it. Absolutely pitch perfect. You should do "The ghost of corporate future" by regina... You'd be well suited.
Hey Lisa, Tom from myspace here!....Regarding the song, It blew me away, yours is a voice that truly deserves to be heard...Seriously, it was so beautiful
Thanks for your nice messages Danito! :-) Glad you like the song, and have discovered Regina! This song is my favourite by her -reminds me of Cohen..Maybe soon I might upload an original too..
very nice job. a friend of mine named me saw the video , and told me if you want to marry him?
