The Blowers Daughter / Damien Rice cover

Im not sure about this one. I think i maybe in a bit of an upload frenzy.......that and ive been dying to do a damien rice song. Im definitely a fan.
T'was a bit tricky trying to record it on my mac though, cause anything more than a whisper and the microphone distorts. Oh well, it may not be as good as id like it to be - but hey, im finally doing a damien rice song - and that'll do me. :)
If you want to know what chords Im playing, just go to Justin Sandercoe's channel and look for his lesson on how to play this song, cause that's were I learnt it. Thanks Justin. A great teacher.

@varesy thanks shaggy, always good when someone thinks you have stood out amongst all the other covers.

[damondrydes]

great job, real soul man, not an easy song to do at all, have to be committed to it and you sure were here

excellent singing

[virtualbusking]

@damondrydes - yeh, you're right damond - if you want to do any justice to a damien rice song, you have to sing as if every word comes straight from the heart. Thanks for having a listen.

NOTE TO SELF. Buy some new strings ya' tight arse, the guitar's sounding a bit dull.

Ahhhh lovely!! I do a cover of this too but much prefer yours. Your voice is perfect for DR songs! Are you in standard tuning?

[virtualbusking]

@64thistles oh yeh, and my guitar is always tuned down half a step, but apart from that its normal tuning.

[virtualbusking]

@64thistles ohhhh, im so glad you think that thistle, cause if theres one muso that id like to emulate, it would be damien rice.
