What Can I Do? - Tribute to the Travelling Wilburys (UK Songwriting Contest 2011)

[pierangelomugavero]

great version :)

[bunchie1966]

@pierangelomugavero Thanks. It's actually original, just in the style of the Wilburys.

[MultiBailarina]

Beautiful song.

[bunchie1966]

@MultiBailarina Thanks for listening and commenting.

[123laf]

hermoso tema my friend

[bunchie1966]

@123laf Thank you very much.

[bpinkhof]

The more I listen to this song, the better it gets. I think it is a stayer. I wonder how many views you will have over 2 years. The emotions are so pure.

[bunchie1966]

@bpinkhof Thank you for your comments. I hope you're right. It's just so difficult to get anything noticed on YouTube, because there's so much stuff on here.

[bpinkhof]

The more I listen to that song, the more I believe in it. I have the feeling it is sounding better the more we listen to it. The emotions are so pure and not faked up. I wonder how many views you will have after 2 years. This song is a stayer, I think.

[notsmilemyheart]

congrats!

[bunchie1966]

@notsmilemyheart Thank you.

[creepyton]

I imagine Roy Orbison singing this. That would have been lovely. Very nice.

[bunchie1966]

[bunchie1966]

@Oldiesfan1958 Thank you very much for commenting.

Fantastic song, it sounds just like them. Maybe if they regroup you could take Roy Orbison's place.

[bunchie1966]

@13thmagician I wish!

[bunchie1966]

@jajafabfour Thank you for listening and commenting.

[ecksact]

Hey, bud! In my view this is your best ever song - I really like it! Can I use it in my sets?! I also agree with the previous poster - you've got a handle on the Wilbury's production and have done a super job at replicating that. Hats off to you, dude!

[bunchie1966]

@ecksact Glad you liked it.

[spacepatrolman]

as doug sahm said thanks for the beautiful vibrations nice gretsch guitars at 0:37 but i cant tell what the orange one george has is

[bunchie1966]

@spacepatrolman Thanks for commenting. Sorry, I'm no expert on guitars. I can play them, but am not a great authority on different guitars. If it sounds nice, I will play it, regardless of who made it.

[BaerchenprinzBln]

Great song and songwriting. Great work. What a beautiful tune. It has a touch of Jeff Lynne without being a copy. Classy, that´s the word. Wonderful, just wonderful. I wish you bon chance for the competition. If you win, you should make an album. Greets, ΛNDЯÉ BERLIИ [ΛB►]☺

[bunchie1966]

@BaerchenprinzBln Thank you very much for listening. Comments from fellow musicians are greatly appreciated. I am hoping to make an album in the near future.

[BaerchenprinzBln]

@bunchie1966 You should make an album. You wrote you had more than one song for that competition, so you can´t be far away from that. Keeping my fingers crossed for you.... :-)

[bunchie1966]

@BaerchenprinzBln Thank you. You are very kind.

[JWP140970]

Nice job!... It's funny... I've never really heard much of their work, so naturally after listening to this, I went and scouted around YouTube to check some of it out.

I have to say, you have captured the essence of their "sound" beautifully!... I hope you do well in the competion this year... Good Luck!

[bunchie1966]

@JWP140970 Thank you very much. Praise indeed. Glad you like the Wilburys too.

[Sedik66861]

[KuiamaLovesELO]

Wow! This is beautiful! I love it! Now, I am an internet radio presenter, and I do an ELO and related artists show every Sunday. So I am wondering if you would give me permission to play the audio of this on my show? Ofcourse I will give you full credit. I will also give you the details of my show and where you can listen. Thanks in advance.

[bunchie1966]

@KuiamaLovesELO Thank you very much. I would be very happy for you to play it on your show. Glad you enjoyed it.

[KuiamaLovesELO]

@bunchie1966 Thanks so much :-) I will play it this Sunday. My Show will be on from 3pm to 6pm UK Time, at radiobacktrack. co. uk (I have put gaps in, as Youtube wont allow me to post links otherwise). We also have a chat room, which you can access via our home page and chat with me live, while I am on air. Write to me privately, letting me know how you would like to be credited and anything else you would like me to say, thanks.

[cardwell]

Hey - what the? I mean, I liked your other songs, Sameh, but this is a... this is incredibly great! The song, your singing, even the playing and production. The slide guitar solo. Your voice is like Roy Orbison's. You've sold your soul to the Devil, haven't you? Is it really an original song or are you just having us on?

[bunchie1966]

@cardwell Glad you liked it. Yep, it's really me and it's really an original song. The funny thing is, I didn't set out to do a Wilburys cover, but when I had recorded the music (I usually add the vocals last) and came to listen to it, I thought: 'That sounds a bit like the Wilburys' music'. So I did my best Roy vocal and put it on YouTube as a tribute. A couple of people have posted it on Wilburys fan sites, which is nice. Thanks for listening.

[cardwell]

@bunchie1966 Well, I'm stunned - it really is magnificent! Did you play everything in it too? As I mentioned before, the slide guitar solo is worth the price of entry on its own. But now I also have to amend my estimation of your singing from "sounds a bit like Chet Baker" to "for all intents and purposes, Roy Orbison re-incarnated!'

[bunchie1966]

@cardwell Thanks. Not everything. The drums are the result of clever software. My talents are restricted to guitar, bass and keyboards, I'm afraid. They (the drums) sound good though, don't they? The backing vocals and strings are synths.

[cardwell]

@bunchie1966 The drums sound really great, and I suspected they were samples but that's cool - a LOT of drums these days are sampled. Everything else is beautifully played, as I said before (especially that sweet guitar solo!) and I'm really looking forward to what you come up with next. Now, about that video...
