Really sweet version of a top tune - I like the Everything but the Girl version as well though think I prefer yours - you bring the sadness of it nicely to the fore.
Isnt it great ? Had never heard their version before. Someone came into the jam with the Rod Stewart chordie version a few weeks ago and gave it to us to play, so I played it straight away for a laugh then thought- hang on a minute, this is a great song- looked into the original, was relieved that Rod Stewart didnt write it (because he is not exactly cool in my book lol) and we have been doing it ever since :)
Stories from Englandshire - not much happens in these parts . . .
It's been a long time since I've heard this... Very nice take on a great song, Caroline! You have a decent rhythm going on your uke too - Happy Spring! :)
Lol- what like- 'well well well that was terrible ' sorry just being silly. Thanks Ruth I appreciate it. When my friend does the harmonies to it that nearly starts me off too, so then it is really hard to sing. Singing and crying is not an easy thing to achieve, I am getting it off to a fine art tho lol. Great you are back BTW- we have missed you :)
What a haunting version of Dannys lovely tune. It is so good that people are now realising that Danny Whitten wrote this and not Rod the bod.

Thanks - I have done it better than this live- I was sitting funny so breathing properly is difficult.
And Hollesley- quite possibly, not sure of the dates ? Will you go for the whole weekend ?
