Yeah, so I'm just singing "World Before Columbus" here with just a CD (on very low volume) in the background. Would be cool if I could accompany this with an instrument, but I just have a harmonica at home...hmmm.

  • i appreciate this very much ;). Suzanne's lyrics are brilliant, and your appreciation of the melody and your delivery of that melody is done with conviction and emotion. Love it! :D

    Hey thanks! I've been a fan of Suzanne Vega since I saw her in concert in Berlin about 10 years ago. I sort of just "tagged along" with a group of friends, I was only familiar with her two of songs at the time. She gave a concert in a chapel and I sat in the 3rd pew :o) I was pretty blown away by her talent.

  • Must be a really hard song to sing, as it goes very low at times and it really has to have emotion in the voice, but you do greatly! I saw this video and has expected it to be much worse.

  • Thanks MetallicBooster :o) I think Suzanne Vega's song "It makes me wonder" is pretty challenging because the chorus has a different key than the rest of the song.

  • Hey! This is really good! What a fantastic album, one of my all time favorites. I like your voice alot! ...Hmmm. Would you be interested in some sort of "video response"-based collaboration via youtube? I've been toying with that thought recently, and I'm not sure of the logistics at this point, but I think there would be a cool way to do something like that - message me or something if you're interested?

  • Thank you! Suzanne Vega is amazing, I saw her in concert once in Berlin, in a church! I was in the third pew away from her!

  • you sound similar to liz phair.

  • Someone who sings Suzanne Vega songs is my kind of someone. Nice too meet you. (I found you from your comment on a Bat for Lashes video ).

  • great singing, keep it up ;)

  • beautifull....

  • I'll think about it! Maybe I'll try "Sil bastan" by Sebnem Ferah? But if I try, then maybe the Turkish people will laugh at me :o(
