i agree i seen foy last night. your not as good as foy but hey there aint too many who are. i think you are an amazing talent. have you recorded any demos??
That was beautiful. Your spirit shines through your music. I truly hope you keep making music, for you have a real gift. Thank you for sharing it with us!!!
I am a huge Foy fan, and know how hard it is to cover one of he's songs, so i admirably comend u on that rendition of one of the most beautiful songs ever written.
i love this song and u sing it beautifly!:) this song is sooo sad but at the same time HOPE is between the lines of the lyrics! and u look like ur reall enjoying it!:)
Truly talented, the only version ive heard that does the song and Foy justice... much love and respect, stick to what you do and you deserve to go very very far....
You remind me of myself when i seng...I cant pull off the whole male singing voice thing, but i sing so much better when my eyes are closed. You gave me chills from the time you struck the first chord. While i dont think this is better than Foy Vance, you have SUCH an amazing singing voice, and the emotion that you put into it is unmistakable, it definatly makes you stand out from the rest.
im with evryone else on the emotion thing..makes a song stand out so much more...didnt know this song before listened to your version...loved it as all your videos...mate your amazing and ill buy your cd...your an inspiration... i hope 60 hour weeks for you dont last much longer..your going to be rich young man...
Wow!!Excellent cover...heartfelt rendition that emotes sincerity, understanding and love. (Great diction by the way). Look forward to hearing more from you...do you write as well?
I've seen Foy Vance play twice in the last year or so, small local gigs in my hometown, and both times I left saying that I had never seen a better live performer or performance. Im actually quite astounded at how well you cover his song. If you could write your own material this good, and put as much feeling into them as you and Foy put into this song, I'd buy your album. Very impressed mate.
ummm...don't hate me for this, but has anyone ever told you that you look like Joe Jonas from the Jonas Brothers? haha..if you don't know who they are, look 'em up..he's the middle bro you'll know when you see him.. but i think he's hott so yeah.
This is a really powerful song and I love this version. You've probably heard this from millions of people, but you really sing beautifully. Thank you for your passion.
dude i want to thank you for introducing me to Foy Vance...ive been hooked on this cat for days man...cant get enough....Id like to try and cover "homebird" but im trying to listen for the chords cause i cant find video...anyways excellent cover bud.
