[WinterSolice]

I definitely agree with Julie. There is something about your voice that is so... soothing and nostalgic. It's something wonderful.

[arrivelate]

[julie1300]

Joe, your covers are like warm peppermint tea on a snowy day ! How relaxing...how refreshing...what a treat !

[iloveyoujules]

[subliminalblip56]

[subliminalblip56]

good job-sorry im a rookie at playing and i know other songs and i can do this one but i just strum up and down cuz i dont know which strings to pluck cuz i cant tell by listening yet-but i can play it good without plucking it-think you can help me cuz you seem really experienced

[Leadingnorth]

ExClent as always!!

[joeburton77]

thanks!! it is great to see you posting again, I love 'lions and the leaves'! hope to see more from you soon :)

[pianohero89]

I saw Iron and Wine live in Portland, OR and it was a great show. This is one of my favorite covers they did, originally by The Postal service, and you've done a great job again.

[joeburton77]

tis a great song, I hope to see them live one day!!

[pianohero89]

Yeah they were great. Calexico was the opener and James Mercer from the Shins showed up and played New Slang with Iron and Wine. At the end all the bands played together and jammed for a while. After the last song nobody in the theatre left and we all clapped and cheered until they came back out and played another five songs. My favorite concert ever.

[joeburton77]

sounds incredible!

[pianohero89]

It was pretty amazing. The tickets were only $22 and there were no seats, just standing, and no stage guards so I could have reached out and touched them. If you ever find yourself in the NW USA near Portland Oregon check out the Roseland theater.

[joeburton77]

a good friend of mine has just moved to portland, so it's a definate possibility

[ficklampa1]

hey, how come you havent done fever dream?

by the way, do you have any original material?

[joeburton77]

no original material as yet.. I'll check out fever dream.. thanks for the suggestion

[galensmith]

perfect

[miclok]

great job joe, I love this song. You've got great taste.

[bluesy13]

Well Done:)))))Peace and Happiness!!!!!

[zzzzzzzzap]

Another beautiful performance Joe. Your delivery is always so perfect. Peace

[ficklampa1]

good shit.

haven't you done this song before?

flight of the conchords are great i love their riffs.

[l1392503]

Great rendition, as always! Love this song.

My sister that lives in New York was the on-set costumer for the Flight of the Conchords! She says they're such nice, polite gentlemen.

And I think the show is a crack-up, even though it was made just to bring to life their melodic/hilarious song-writing.

[yfguitarist]

Great song. Good job, Joe.
