Leon Russell - A Song For You (cover)

PLEASE WATCH IN HQ - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtLqK2Q0zew&fmt=18

In the style of Donny Hathaway/Gavin DeGraw. It's a really tough song to sing (for me atleast). I still don't have any coaching (I am looking though) so any tips are more than welcome and greatly appreciated!

Meet my grand piano! I bought it not too long ago. It's a used Yamaha G2 baby grand piano. I recorded the audio with that condenser microphone you see on the grand. I don't have a good audio setup yet (cause it's really expensive) but I will eventually. This is the best audio I can get until then.

Video was recorded using my mobile phone, built in isight and my regular camera which apparenty also has a video mode.



Thanks a lot for listening,
please rate, comment, subscribe, anything :)

OK, I've loved this song since I 1st heard it on Leon's debut album 40+ yrs ago, I've heard it covered by literally tons of people since then, but your version here actually moved me to tears. You sing with such feeling and raw emotion like you are truly feeling it! You are super talented and I hope that all your dreams come true. You are a star in the making! ;)

@wildrthanevr Thank you so much. It's people like you I appreciate the most. Convincing somebody who loves the original is the most beautiful thing :) I really appreciate you taking time to write this! :) Peace, Stephan
