  • Very nice voice

  • @slmgirl Thanks so much for listening:) Happy 2012!

  • Great cover of this wonderful song. Your voice is ethereal.

  • Do I ever remember this song....I was dating Joe at the time.....and he still haunts my memories, as I am sure Timothy haunts his. LOL

  • Always loved this Song! Its been playing in my head since I first heard it as a kid.

    I also like this young ladies version. Great Job!

  • Great job! Thanks for doing this song which came out when I was 13. Beautiful voice, great acoustic guitar. You capture the haunting feeling of this song. Hope you're still playing.

  • MY names Timothy... :D

  • Great voice. I like the accustical version. I couldn't catch the last verse of the song quite well, but it was a great version just the same.

  • I'm 61 years old and this is the first time I've ever heard this song!!!!! I love Rock and Roll and can't believe that I never knew there was a song about me. I wish it could have been about me and 2 ladies trapped in the mine, then I wouldn't have felt so bad about being eaten!!!!

  • great song very nice

    good to hear it again

    great guitar playing

  • that was great! just heard it on the radio today..and looked it up and there you were! i sure do remember when that song was made

  • I ate it up.

  • Interesting I thought I was the only one who remembered this macabre song. I'm a 50 something dude. I thought you did a really nice version of this song. I play and sing this song too. However I don't play professionally just for kicks. I'd definitely

    not sing this as well as Camera GRRrul (word play not intended as an insult :0)

  • @batfroman I was playing this yesterday on the guitar and my daughter said Oh good the cannibal song! LOL...and she is 15 so I guess this is one of those songs that maybe young ones can enjoy too...I always liked it growing up:) Thanks for the nice compliment:)

  • @Cameragirl803 I played that song for my 22 year old son. He was mildly amused. He likes slip knot. Thought a song about two dudes eating up a 3rd dude was a bit OUT THERE. His friends liked the melody. I was visiting him last Christmas and played that song. One dude named Timothy would get mad when people would tease him about that song. When it was on the radio. :0)

  • Nice job!

  • Great Job on this Classic!

  • VERY GOOD JOB PRETTY LADY

  • Excellent girl..loved it..

  • Thanks a bunch BasswipeNC:) Glad you liked it!

  • i'd much rather timothy was a human than a mule. i'm so sick of humans, particularly those named timothy.

  • Hi Miss Jane I found this in some of your ancient offerings. I recall when the song was popular there was much speculation of who or what Timothy was?? . In Ohio it was decided he was the mule . hugs to ya , Bruce

  • Thanks for the comment Bruce! I would like to think it was a mule too:) LOL

  • I have never heard anyone cover this song, and I have not heard it on the radio since 1974--you have done an excellent job, and great voice. and yes, there are several videos of the original posted on YouTube.

  • Bill Kelly the lead singer of this song is my cousin and I think you do a great job on covering it.

  • This is one of those one-hit-wonders! I searched for a long time to find it. Thanks for keeping it alive. Can't find the original can you? Hey here's another morbid hit DOA ....find that one. huh?

  • Thanks mfagans...I bet the original is on the tube somewhere...Here I will sing DOA to ya...♪ I remember...we were flying low and hit something in the air♪ LOL..

  • and timathey>iremeber. good rendish> not bad at all..jones

  • i guess we will never know....

  • Thisis a really cool tune...Definately different from The Pina Colada song!

    Great post Jane!

  • Have you done thunder road? I know you would do it justice. Regards Richard

  • That is a lot of great music coming from a lady and her guitar, congrats!

  • great performance with a brilliant voice (c: 5*

  • Thanks so much zeddic23:) Really sweet of you to say and thanks for the stars too:)

  • Very Good cover. Check out "Dakota Timothy". A 2005 show the band Dakota put on in Pittston PA at the Staircase ,near their old home towns. Dakota is the band that evolved from THE BUOYS. Bill Kelly and Jerry Hludzik are two of the Buoys original members in the video. Both were lead singers and lead guitar players,but this one is mainly Bill Kelly singing.

  • Thanks so much, Wow systech485 thanks a lot for the info too! That is cool, I will check Them out:)

  • what brand of acoustic?

  • IT is an old Nagoya (copy of a Martin) made in Japan. I love my guitar:) Thanks for asking

  • Damn! SAD! Very well done, and to choose such a song... Good job! Makes one think, "what would I do?" God only knows!

  • Hi Jane! I enjoyed seeing you and everybody at ToobStock! This video is an education for me. I didn't know about this song. Wow, what a theme, eh? I'm glad I saw your video, and you performed this so well. I thought you were going to knock into the mic in the beginning of the vid until you moved your guitar. "Wait! No! ACK!" :D

  • Hi Betty:) Thanks so much for checking it out:) It was a song that I used to hear a lot on the radio when I was little:) It was great to meet you at Toobstock! You played so beautifully along with Strat2casters guitar playing! It was a joy to hear:)

  • I forgot to mention before,Very nice job!!

    5 stars. Mike

  • Thanks so much for the stars too MIke:)

  • I opened up for a band called Dakota who were originally the Buoys with the two original singers of Timothy ( Bill Kelley and Jerry Hludzik).From what they said as I

    remember,this is why they moved on and changed the name of the band because of the cannibalism stigma attached to the song.

  • That is really interesting:) I can see where that might happpen. Thanks for the comment SIXSTRINGS63:)
