Soft-pedal the imitation and aim for emulation. As for presentation, lose the steel strings in favour of nylon and see if you can find a collaborator with an upright bass. Fine song, you're very good at this and it's nice to see that Jake is remembered. :)
i love your cover of this song -- the words are always hard for me to get since i'm american, so you've sung them appropriately.....don't listen to peoples criticisms of your guitar: it's excellent and it rocks -- your timing is impeccable and you tuned/played it well -- jakes sounds more complicated because of having a bass there, but yours' just as good.......i have an aquaintance i call 'the bull' so i'm endeared to this song.......the freakfolkers don't know what they're missing.
If I wasn't watching you sing this, I would assume this was actually Jake Thackary!!! I sat with my gob hanging open through the whole vid I was so amazed! Like this ----> :-o
on some of your other posts it looks like your miming,i can see now you are not,because you didnt practice! you have the voice.can you not get a jazz guitarist and a bass player? you would make thackrey fans v.happy!!! its better than that LABOUR-thackrey festival. that was rubbish,get on tour !!!!!
