haha! hey i thank all those people too for encouraging u to sing & play , cus if not, i wouldnt have even met u, cus i think this is before i met u! saw this in a related vid & thought "is that rob?"..so had to click on it to see! oooooooooh what a beauty i missed, u sure added the sadness to this song! how beautiful, & i am so glad i found this today! i guess i really should spend more time going thru vids of the past before my time! cus damn have i missed some goodens! beautiful rob!loved it!
Thank you Kathy , wow this one is from the Rocket archives lol..one of the first vids I made on youtube almost 4 years ago..This vid is where I first met Nancy Leonard and she was sooooo encouraging ..Thanks to Nancy and great friends like you, I have totally enjoyed my Youtube experiance ..and I first met Paula on youtube so you know I love YOUTUBE : ) Hugs from Ottawa Kat xo
I have a picture of myself taken at the WWI monument in Ottawa on Tuesday, May 11, 1971. If you want to see it, I can e-mail it to you. It's also on facebook.
Back to listen to the first one I ever heard you sing. I knew you were a good guy when I found you singing this. Jesse's words are so tender and gentle and beautiful, it takes a person with those qualities to perform his songs this convincingly. You are great, Rob! So glad I discovered you here.
Wow I can't believe that it's been almost 3 years since I made this video...Thanks Nancy you are too kind and your right I met you after doing this song..That alone made it worthwhile for me : ) Hugs xo
Hey Rocket-Glad I found this-so soothing-waltzing on air... I'm not real familiar with Jesse, so I'll have to explore. Hope your well in the northcountry...I might just have a Molson in your honor:)Best-Michael
It's been a while, so I had to come listen again tonight. Still love this! And here's the first song I ever heard you sing, Rob! And one of the first songs I ever listened to on youtube! See, you got me hooked! And now it's almost twenty thousand songs later, and I'll never be able to quit listening! So glad I chanced by your place and stopped here! It's been a pleasure and a trip my friend, and I look forward to sharing many more smiles with you! ;)
Nancy thanks for returning to this vid my friend..I'm shocked that it has almost 5000 views ..I would never have imagined that..anyway your the only person who comments on this one anymore and I appreciate it : ) I'm honored that it was one of the first vids that you listened to and one of the first videos that I made. I'm glad that you stopped here almost 2 years ago Nancy..It's great having you as a friend
Thanks Nancy..for checking this one out again..You are the only one who ever watches this video anymore..and I love you for that : ) I have so many songs by Jesse and others that need to be sung..I need to be more motivated lol.
You have a huge captive audience Rob! Pick a song out of your hat and we're there! Would especially love another Jesse song! Is Boney Fingers still on the list btw? ;)
Hmmm...I listened to this one many months ago, but I looked back in your archive of comments (!) and saw none from me! An oversight on my part! Jesse Winchester is my favorite singer/songwriter, and I'm always pleased when musicians perform his music. So glad you chose this one! Thanks for your loving interpretation of a great song!
saw you had a chiwhawha dog, well one had bitten me just a few days ago, while bringin'the mail..I had some blue tas letres whit me,guess the doggie knew it ,he was trained to attack
have strang accidents lately,hearing this song makes it better thanx Rob
Yes I took care of my Mothers Chihuahua after she went into a nursing home..I must say I loved that little dog, She was really a freindly little chihuahua who would not bite (Most people) lol. Sorry to hear about the Chihuahua who bit you..some of them really are nasty. Quit having accidents my friend and thanks so much for the great compliment
Now I have to shay..you you have a way with a song. I love Jesse Winchester...ever since I first heard his songs back in the early 70's. You have a way with this song..really. Back then I felt guilty about him hiding up here in Canada..but now I am..HAR HAR. I have a really really good song lyric I would love to send you. It got good reviews.
Thanks David for your great comments. it's funny how a pet quickly becomes family member and it kills you when they die. Hey your vid is in my favorites also. Thanks man
The dog in the picture is Ginger. A female Chihuahua. Sadly she died about a year ago at 8 years old due to kidney failure..It broke my heart so I like to put her pic in some of my videos.Thanks for asking Man.
another good vid rob! cheers for the mention :) was sweet. i always admire how you seem to memorize songs lyrics quickly. brings so much more to a video if you know the words :) im working on that :)
Thanks Becks : ) I have known that song for decades lol so I didn't really have to memorize it. I have a hard time memorizing lyrics also. Hey I miss your videos : (
That was very enjoyable,I almost fell off my chair when you said my name at the begining heh! Thanks for making another and intorducing me to a new song!
