Thankyou. I love your uke songs, and especially the way that your present your songs with all of your being; voice, eyes and body. Are there no limits to your talents?
Been ages since I have commented on a video on youtube, but wanted to listen something to give me a smile bigger than the one I already had. Remembered this latest one so popped in to listen. Sweet song which did the job for me Holly. :o)
btw, your little growls of frustration make me laugh. I just wanted to say a few words - the out-takes are... berry bunny... wait a minute, that's not the words! :p
Never seen your videos before but just listening now and this and Only Time are my favourites. I love this song and your image (especially the hair in this vid!). :D
I really enjoyed the song Holly. The intermingling of your sweet voice, your up-beat personality, the lightheartedness of the lyrics, it put a smile on my face. I see I am not the only person to suffer ' A deer in the headlights daze' when in front of a video camera. Injecting some of your personality in the music videos is a good idea. Your sillyness in the bloopers at the end of the video also made me smile
That's one of the things that make you so extraordinary, Holly ... You can just sing into the camera mike, and play a simple instrument, and make absolutely BRILLIANT music! I love the music that lives in you! <3
I almost fell out of my chair @3:52 "that's not the words"! ~ LoL
You have an impressive scrapbook now. You met Suzanne Vega. Your Youtube channel is a success story. So keep putting videos up with you singing and playing a Luna guitar, a ukulele or a piano (you are gifted).

Goofiness? Embarrassing? You're playing a ukele for crying out loud. Somber it isn't. If you aren't having fun with your music from time to time, you probably need to find something else to do with your life. Your voice is getting better every time I hear you. The future is looking good.
@leftysergeant Hiya! :D Hehe...yeah I guess. ;) It's hard not to smile when you're having fun playing a rather cool instrument. :) Thank you so much for your lovely words. xx
In one place you sing, "regret not leaving him before", but the lyrics in the down under say, "regret _now_ leaving him before". Yes, I know I'm persnickety.
Do you know where you were getting the "quell my foolish pride" from?
Oh, so this is just a simple lil' song, yeah ri-i-ight...If it were me, it immediately gets difficult when taking my fingers off of the deadened strings n' goes down hill from there and totally falls apart when I try to sing AND play. Other than that it's all quite simple. This is a lovely little song which made absolutely no sense when I read the words alone but when you sang, it somehow had meaning. What, I don't know, but that's okay cuz I enjoyed it anyway... twas fun n' made me smile. :-))
@Answersinbooks Haha! I tend to get distracted and start thinking about something else halfway through a song! Lol. It's so hard to concentrate when you haven't got an audience there to keep you on track! :)
Thank you so much for your comment. :) I'm very pleased that you like the song. xx
