Michelle Featherstone - Coffee & Cigarettes (Cover)

Apologies for this video cutting out a few times, there must of been some faults in it when I uploaded it, so i'll upload it again.

I only heard this song for the first time yesterday, as someone suggested I tried to sing this song, as they thought it would suit my voice....so thanks to 'sueanna2'. I hope you enjoy this one...I love the lyrics:)

I gave up coffee and cigarettes
I hate to say it hasn't helped me yet
I thought my problems would just dissipate
And all my pain would be in yesterday

I poured my booze all down the kitchen drain
And watched my bad habits get flushed away
I thought that that would keep my head on straight
And all my pain would be in yesterday

But it's true
I'm still blue
But I finally know what to do
I must quit, I must quit, you

I thought that if I didn't go and play
The sadness would get bored and go away
I thought that if I didn't go astray
That all my pain would be in yesterday

But it's true
I'm still blue
But I finally know what to do
I must quit, I must quit, you

I sold my guitar and my piano
I thought that it was these that kept me low
I thought if only I could try and change
That all my pain would be in yesterday

But it's true
I'm still blue
But I finally know what to do
I must quit, I must quit, you

I must quit, I must quit, you

[johnsen93dk]

very nice ;) and your voice is perfect low :D

I've learned how to play the song on the guitar for my Mrs. Thought you did a good job covering the song. I would try to "sing" less. Let it flow out and you'll see that your voice complements the song even more than what you hear in the video. This is just constructive criticism. As of now, you still have a great sounding song.

[kleckshexe]

you have a great voice...rich....but honestly, I really don't think this song goes well with your voice. I mean no offense, it's just that I love this song and I think it should be sung with a higher, finer voice....

[mdoneghey]

you could also try diana krall..you're voice reminds me of hers

[LYBAce]

I don't know why you did what you did to the melody, it sounds a little repetitive after awhile. No offense. You sound good, just a little nasally at times. I am not trying to bash you, just some constructive criticism. So I'll apologize again.

i think you should pronounce the words more clearly and also not let the lines fade out so indefinite... make it more clear and put more character into it, your voice is good anyway.

[IceDragonASLT]

You should try something like Bonnie Raitt's, Dimming of the Day.

[IceDragonASLT]

Very good fit, lots of feeling in there.

good choice sueanna.

[sueanna2]

Just as i thought, a perfect fit!

The guitar, the singing... blended oh-so well.

LOVED IT... :)
