Streets of London - Ralph McTell cover TAKE ONE

got requested yesterday, never heard it before, but absolutely love it! so tried to learn it today, i'm reading the lyrics off the screen so it's not great!! I will definitely post an improved version in the next few weeks, but this is it for now! Other than my apprehensive mumbling of the words in some places, and the not very good guitar playing, what do we think people?! :) x

@callumrocksyoursocks hahah i feel bad coz i keep saying i will do it but the thing is callum, tis HARD!!!! and i keep wasting time doing other songs like this haha when i should be doing that song you suggested, but i will do it i promise!

[callumrocksyoursocks]

@emilysingsalot I understand. I play guitar and I struggle with simple MUSE songs (then again I'm not particularly good or dedicated like you). :)

Hiya lass, that was a brilliant reindition you did of a Ralph McTell song.....Dont stop singing you have a beautiful voice its a wonderfull talent to have...I dont think you would have any trouble singing these songs, have a listen and perhaps you'll rehearse one and add your own style to it.... Roger Whittaker - Durham Town (1969) or Roger Whittaker New world in the morning ..... my very best wishess to ya.... davey....
