(Never Felt More Like) Singin' the Blues

This song was a hit by Detroit native, Guy Mitchell, back in 1956. Later that same year, Marty Robbins recorded it and also hit big with it. Can you believe 1956 was 54 years ago (I did the math and didn't even have to use my fingers or toes this time). Holy cow, time is kicking up to wrap speed. Chewie, take your big foot of the exhilarator! -- the Millenium Falcon needs to slow down a wee bit, don't you think?

Really cool Mark, and what a lovely voice you have! (makes me think of James Taylor every time...) Don't worry you really have your own style but theres definitely something similar in your voice...

I really love this!

@Northshore45 Gotta admit JT is one of my favorite singer/songwriters, but I'd never compare my voice to his, although I appreciate your comment. Hey, is that north shore Lake Superior? If so, you have quite a view! All the best. ~ Mark

Really enjoyed this, Mark! I was only familiar with the Marty Robbins version myself, but this one is equally as great. Of course you did a mighty fine job, as always. Cheers!

@rbseaver Hey Rob, thanks for the kind words. Glad your liked my cover of this great old song. Seems I'm liking those old songs more and more. Must be I've officially obtained the ye ol' fart age. All the best to you and your crew. ~ Mark

Really like your rendition of this oldie! Great singing and playing!  ...like the way you fill in between the verses and for the whistling.

Nice tune Mark. Are you traveling or just spending your time playing your guitar or both? Hope all is well with you. See you at the pool.
