  • absolutely fabulous, this should have 6 million views instead of 6 thousand. fantastic sound.

  • Great voices, perfectly measured.

  • This is so beautiful, it had me in tears.

    I absolutely adore this song and your rendition of it is marvelous.

    I already mentioned in your "Viva La Vida" video that I liked your singing in two voices but this one is even better.

  • this is fabulous! could you please give me the chords for the guitar part? also, im a beginner, so I can't do bar chords yet. could you send me one i could use with a capo?

  • @blackswan54, hi, thanks so much for posting. If you write the name of the song in Google's search box together with the word chords, a whole load of pages will come up. I'm sure they'll be very helpful. Take care, Eric.

  • this is fabulous! could you please give me the chords for the guitar part?

  • Eric-we will always love you !

  • Hello newrochellephoenix, that's most touching, thank you. All the best, Eric.

  • I recently had the pleasure of seeing Carole King and James Taylor perform this live in Boston...I gained an appreciation of the song for the first time. So it was a nice surprise to find your delightful version here on YT that I can enjoy any time I want!

  • @nanbarberable, hi there, how kind, thank you, take care, Eric.

  • Hi Eric. Another great video and a fine choice of song. How do you find the Risa Uke? Certainly looks the part, but how does it play?

    Koolden, you can achieve the split screen effect using the "cookie cutter" effect in Sony Vegas.

  • ShiftySquirrel, hi Pete, I think it's a great uke if one can get the most out of it. Unfortunately I'm not that good a player. Take care chum, Eric.

  • Very good !! What software did you use for split sreen effect?? Thanks Denis

  • Koolden, hi Denis, thanks chum. I have a 'stand alone' editing machine and split screen is one of the standard effects. Cheers, Eric.

  • once again love it!

  • Hi boyblue1171, cheers chum, best, Eric.

  • i would like to add that i thought that the split screen was very good but it was seeing you twice that freaked me out lol. you are very talented being able to play the two instruments m8

  • Hi SuperTravisbickle, yes, I would think seeing two of me would be quite a shock for anyone, lol. Take care, Eric.

  • that split screen effect was freaking me out a little bit. it was a very good cover though 9/10

  • SuperTravisbickle, hiya mate, he, he, thanks very much. Unfortunately, I didn't quite get the split right on this one. Cheers, Eric.

  • These guys are now one of my favorite groups. I listen to The Beatles, Elvis Costello, Stevie Wonder, Brian Jonestown Massacre, The Clash, Etc.

    ...and these two guys. They just have something incredibly entertaining about them. Love'em.

  • Hi bea78tles, thanks so much for the glowing compliment, and although I know you didn't post your comment directly to me I felt I really must reply. Forgive me for that. The reason is I just wanted to put the record straight. There aren't two guys, there's only one. Me. I film myself twice and then join the two together with an effect called split screen. Thanks so much chum, best wishes, Eric.

  • omg. I had no idea.  Well good for you. What a pleasure to watch you "two".

    Now can we get you to do a Beatles tune in the future?

  • Hi bea78tles, cheers chum, I'll look into your suggestion. Take care, Eric.

  • solsleuteltje, hi Gerda, how are you? Well I hope. Thanks so much. Take care, Eric.

  • This is amazing, Eric. I think the minor synchronizing fault doesn't affect the beauty of this lovely song.

    I have watched your other clips, they are all wonderful. If you hold a concert one day, please let me know, I'd love to fly over to UK.

  • Hi BigBearHK1234, thank you so much for your kind comment. Wow, that's quite compliment to say you'd fly over to see me, thank you. However, I don't do live 'gigs' anymore, well not for the time being at least, but thanks for the offer. Take care friend, all the best, Eric.

  • Amazing stuff as usual Eric! Thanks for posting and brightening the day of anyone who listens to your videos, and fantastic musical talents. Keep it up! Cheers mate!

  • Hi paradrop44, aw, thanks so much, you're a pal. Take care, all the best, Eric.

  • Great as ever ! :)

  • soulacsurmer, hi Claudia, thanks so much, Eric.

  • great video mate.i didnt relise it was a split screen at the start i thought it was twins. You have mastered the split screen . 5 stars.

  • Hi RichGraham92, thanks you so much, and thanks too for the rating. Cheers, Eric.

  • A very nice version Eric. 5*

  • Hello theukeofedinburgh, thanks so much mate. Just checked out your vids, excellent, keep it up. Best, Eric.

  • If you were twins I reckon you'd be a household name.

  • cjwaywell, hi Chris, lol, what like Harpic or Andrex? Cheers mate, best, Eric.

  • Amazing!!!

  • Hi bestiaccia, thanks so much. Have a good weekend, best, Eric.

  • You are a genius, Eric, never mind the little imperfections. However I do understand about perfectionism, which makes me wonder what editing software you're using?

    If you use something like Final Cut try and play with the garbage matte filter, which allows you to turn the straight line of the split into a line with many kinks. Almost like a cookie cutter.

    But again, your brilliance is obvious. I love your work!

  • ISDesigns, hi Ilja, aw, too kind. I don't know about genius but I do believe in rehearse, rehearse, rehearse. But even then once I'm in front of the camera it sometimes all goes to pot. I use a stand alone editing machine that I bought about eight years or so ago. It's called a Casablanca AvioDV. I bought it because at that time my computer was not up to using editing programs. Things have moved on since. MovieMaker even comes with windows XP for instance. All the best, Eric.

  • Good job.

  • Chivalryaintdead, hi Jason, cheers mate, best, Eric.

  • Eric-youve got fans who will love you 4ever!

  • Hi newrochellephoenix, aw, thanks so much. Keep well, Eric.

  • Oh, btw, did I mention that the Shirelles would be proud of you!?!?!

    Cheers

    Ilja

  • ISDesigns, hi Ilja, lol, bless, take care, Eric.

  • Excellent, Eric!!!

    You make a perfect duet with yourself.

    However, what did we learn about the editing??? LOL Just teasing ya. Keep up the good work, my friend!

    Ilja

  • ISDesigns, hi Ilja, oh bugger, you would watch this one wouldn't you! lol. Your'e absolutely right though, and in fact I very nearly didn't upload it, there's so much I wasn't happy with, the split screen being only one of them. I found this one trickier than most because I wasn't totally comfortable with the electric uke bit, couldn't hear the guitar trough my earpiece and mis-judged my standing position. I'm a bit of a perfectionist most times but on this one I got a bit sloppy. Cont...

  • Part 2. I'd gone through the uke bit so many, and I mean SO MANY!!! times that when I did a take all the way through that I was fairly satisfied with I went with that. What I should have done is dumped it all and and started all over again, or at least done a bit more practice on the uke. One vid I did do where I moved the split is 'Another Suitacase etc' however my editing machine tends to show a blip when I move the split mid clip. Ah well, I'll keep at it till I get it right. Best, Eric.

  • Brilliant,once again Eric.Top notch stuff!All the best.TokyoXplorer.

  • TokyoXplorer, hiya Josh, cheers mate, thanks so much, take care, Eric.

  • Aw, man! Such a beautiful voice, and so well played (what a great looking electric ukulele!), and that ending! LOL!!! Marvelous job, Eric! 5 stars!!! :)

  • singingkid, hi Greg, thanks so much, you're a mate. My uke may look good, just wish I could play the bloody thing. lol. Anyway, I'll keep practising. If you like good singing folks, check this guy out, one of the best, Eric.

  • Just another comment Eric...I also just received one of those emails to verify my Hotmail account. Because of what happened to you I deleted it right away!!!!

  • vampireratt, hi Cary, I'm glad my vid did some good. It's been a real pain. Not only because everything I used that email for has been closed down, plus people have been getting begging letters from Nigeria. If they've got any sense though they will of course have just ignored it. Best, Eric.
