@lfaegre I really thank for your kind reply. Surely I will get the one.

I love your songs also available on the web.

A song from Tahoe reaches Japan.

WOW!...amazing track! Great layering of vocal to music. FLAWLESS!!!

@PrettyLittleHead Always early to bed early to rise, my daughter came home from skating one evening and woke me up with a piano construct of this track and I took it from there. I put myself in their spirits, performing each instrument as they might had there been a full studio version that included Paul, George, Ringo and George Martin as producer.

I think the Beatles' production of 'Across the Universe' would have sounded very much like this had they collaborated on this composition...

@lfaegre ...being a musician myself, I might agree with you on "technique". There's always the Twickenham jams of all 4 doing Across The Universe that the four piece realist can pick apart too.. :) Thats always fun. Love the final "naked version" too..but keep in mind the modernization of the 60's technique was influenced on later remixes, thus giving an "unrealistic" (but good) approach to a song that may never had been recorded or finalized that way to begin with.

@lfaegre ...my complement to your daughter was really that this version is REALLY a modernization of this song, almost a creation upon itself. If gives almost a melancholy feel to it. Its NOT like any other cover tune I've heard. The feel is almost reminiscent to Sarah Polley's song "One More Colour" from the Sweet Hereafter soundtrack.
