Naked As We Came (Iron and Wine / Kina Grannis Cover)

Add me! http://www.myspace.com/paulkeskeys

Although I could never hope to do justice to Sam Beam's amazing vocals and guitar playing skills, I just had to have a go at covering this song as it's one of my absolute favourites - inspired especially by Kina Grannis's version, equally beautiful as the original. :) If you haven't heard Kina yet, check her out, she is fantastic!

Here are the lyrics...

She says "wake up, it's no use pretending"
I'll keep stealing, breathing her.
Birds are leaving over autumn's ending
One of us will die inside these arms
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
One will spread our ashes round the yard...

She says "If I leave before you, darling
Don't you waste me in the ground"
I lay smiling like our sleeping children
One of us will die inside these arms
Eyes wide open, naked as we came
One will spread our ashes round the yard...

I really like the song,

and you've got a lot of talent,

But i think your singing needs some work,

it really sounds like your forcing your voice, let it come naturally, it makes a nicer sound (:

[AndiAndHelen]
