I'm blown away by how faithful your covers are. I never have the patience (or talent?) to recreate a song that exactly. Amazing.
I love this song by John. I also love the simplicity of the original demo, which I heard on the IMAGINE soundtrack many years ago. The "Beatles" also did it proud though!
@shanenkim Thanks Shane. btw- the singer featured on this video is my friend and collaborator, Clint. Highly recommend you check out his channel. His channel is babs2002ukus. We've done maybe 50 projects together on Youtube over the last 4-5 years.
there's so much great covers in your page, I don't know if this is your best cover but one of the greatest sure! really awesome music and super nice voice, I love it.
Definitely a keeper. I listened to this song probably a couple thousand times the year it came out. Something about it strikes a chord in me every time I hear it, even now.
@Oswlek It's such a lovely song. A beautiful sort of last gasp from the lads from Liverpool. Listening to our version again just now and realizing what good stereo separation there is on it. !
"not being "contemporary enough" for their listeners". MY ASS! This is a great song deserving the #1 spot on the bloody bbc chart. When Anthology was done I couldn't get enough of it. Enjoyed it over and over again. You guys did a super job with your version... The Harrison-isk lead was icing on the cake... BRAVO!!!
Right on bros! Double Dittos. Actually the Beatles collab on the old tapes was a forerunner to the youtube collabs of today. Those guys kept innovating right up to their last song together.
Hey, Doc, another LOVE capsule from your technical savvy and creative juices spraying REAL and soothing refreshed sounds from a familiar classic! Happy New Year.
Yes, I red that in your more info. But we all are here in spirit, commenting here, haha.. we were not mentioned in the title!! :-) (just kidding, my friend!)
Seriously, you did a great cover together, it is just professional!:-) Great!
@Twirretwarre yes that was Christmas Eve, here in Spain the most important meal is Noche buena,or interpreted the good night, it was super, very Spanish though. king prawns lobster etc,and the most tender meat I have ever eaten.some great wine too, but as I was driving, I had to restrict it to one glass only, AH well next year is upon us,
i always thought that this was the best of the two (semi) posthumous efforts of the the beatles, and the harmonies confirm that. when you think about it, it doesn't sound like a typical lennon composition, going from minor to major like that, but then, there's "girl"," mr. kite' ,julia". i love it, guys, and want to relive more beatles great moments from you two.
Well, well well, vocals are fantastic, completely nailed that or me. The drums and bass have been recorded with such a great sound - great playing as well. The guitar / lead guitar parts are just tremendous. Great vid as well. Very rare to hear a Beatles song where the cover exceeds the original but you've managed it. Very well done indeed
hehe that augmented use to throw me out alot when i forst leanrt this in the 90's such a great touch to a progression though really gives the song a great twist
Great...thanks Mike for sharing this beautiful cover... Sara
