Our year as I remember it - Grey Room (Cover)

It's Valentines Day, 2007, and also my one year anniversary with Liz. Since she's no longer in Vancouver, I thought I'd walk around town and revisit some of the places we've been to while she was here. I thought I'd also enlist the help of some reluctant friends to film me with the guitar. And I recently heard the song "Grey Room" by Damien Rice, and thought it was quite beautiful and fitting for this occasion.

Liz, I hope you like this, and that it takes you for a nice stroll down memory lane. I know that where ever I went, I remembered the good times, and wished that you were there, in front of the camera with me. I miss you.

Happy anniversary, Liz. I hope to keep you warmer than warm, for years to come.

Special thanks to Frank, Stephanie, and Ryan for helping with the filming, and Josh, for the use of his awesome basement recording studio. And sorry I forgot to mention before, but thanks to Walter and Wei. Without them, Liz and I would never have been.

how come you know all about these awesome date spots in vancouver that i don't know of and i was born here!

[dairong]

I hear you man. It was her that brought me to some of these places, and she was in the city for less than a year!

[mrbowling300]

Excellent. Where is Liz now?

[dairong]

Seoul, South Korea. Freakin' 5000 miles away.

it's good to see that there are still some romantics out there.

truly.

Interesting video. It's an odd mix of really sweet/sincere and creepy/stalker-ish! Could have been done a little smoother though but still it's original. ;)

sorry but i know damien rice when i hear him and that is not him, it's a cover...a good one as a matter of fact...

[juliejakobsen94]

it's not him that sings or plays the music.

the song is called "grey room" and it is damien rice that sings.

[wrxcmm]

you know, i usually don't comment on vids

unless it's really bad and people need a reallity check

or it's awsome work, just because i'm really judgemental

as far as music goes and i must say, you are one of those rarities, you are good.

at first i thought "eh just another cheesy fkn cover" but got through it (rare too) and i liked it.

good work sir, keep it up.

This is astonishing -- the most romantic concept I've ever seen on YouTube, set to a beautiful rendition of the perfect song for this vid. David, you will really appreciate this one when you're older. GREAT job!

[LeoRhey]

[xxPowerdogxx]
