Great video, I love this song. Always beatin' myself up when trying to sing Drake's songs. Unbelieveble how his voice seems to float, changing from like minor to major?
I really liked your cover. Your guitar playing is beautiful and fluid. Your singing is excellent, I especially like when you let the words "sustain" at the end of sentences, precisely like Nick does. Great job ! I follow you in expecting sometimes Nick to let go a bit more, but Nick's register seems to be always the "control tension" style, which gives his songs this feeling of being intemporal, like you would hear them in a dream.
Nice vocal stylings, mate. Nick sings this one very bland and flat but that's because he had THAT VOICE to rely on. Lovely interpretation. This is the first Nick Drake song that gripped me by the short and curlies so good job!
yeah i always wanted nick to open up and sing a big rock note but he never does - his biggest note is probably the ooooooh in 'ooooooh how they come and go' in river man.
You sound like James Cunt

thanks joe! i am gonna take up that request - just starting to learn river man right now - its tricky singing over that 5/4 guitar timing!
berondi 3 years ago
it is tricky.. I found I had to get the guitar part down really solid before I could sing over it! looking forward to hearing it!
