After much trial and error, I finally managed to get the sound quality a little better... still learning! This is such a beautiful song, it was written by Warren Zevon and it's on his first album. It was made famous by Linda Ronstadt, who covered several of Warren's songs. Hope you like it.

  • YOU'RE USING AUTOTUNE!?!?! REALLY?

  • @jumpoffroof Nope, not using autotune, just curious why you think that? Just a little reverb and a little bit of compression, but just a live performance, no tricks... Thanks for listening!

  • @peachfreeze1 ah i'm sorry, the compression may have thrown me a bit, like first verse when u say "planned" sounds like autotune kicking in but it could just be ur voice. First chorus does it heaps. Don't get me wrong I think its an awesome performance of an amazing song. I'm just so morally opposed to autotune that i tend to get grouchy whenever i think i hear it. Sorry for the accusation, i will thumbs down my previous comment. keep on keeping on.

  • @jumpoffroof haha no need to be sorry I was just curious. And I am also morally opposed to autotune... I am actually quite happy that you thought this, because I guess it means that I am in tune!!!! Peace and thank you!

  • Just beautiful!

    Total respect!

  • @WarrenZevonAddict Thank you so much! I love Warren too...so much that when I was in London a few years ago I actually really went to Lee Ho Fook's and got a big dish of beef chow mein!!

  • a very nice rendition of a very very fine song

  • Super duper, Man. One of the best covers on youtube

  • Warren Zevon was indeed a great songwriter, gone too soon. This is one of my most favourite WZ songs. Rarely covered so it was a real treat to hear your beautiful rendition. Very well sung & played, emotive vocals, great sound. Keep up the great muse!

  • @peachfreeze1 indeed, you were.
