'Blowin' In The Wind'-Bob Dylan (Ukulele cover)

Hi everyone :-) This is just a cover of Bob Dylan's 'Blowin' In The Wind'. I don't 'do' covers, but I didn't fancy doing a 'Ruth song', I'm giving it a rest for a while. I don't want people to tire of me, or know what to expect :-D I don't 'do' covers normally, 'cause 1: I don't want to ruin someone else's song, and 2: people are more likely to discover me doing a cover, and say I'm sh**e. I know that's silly.

I'm aware I still haven't got around to replying to comments on the previous video, bear with me. I'm caught between work and because it's the Summer holidays, spending as much time as I can with my boys, especially before Henry starts school. I will cry. Well, at least I'm nearly up to date with watching and commenting on your videos :-)

I did practise this one. This one's for Ken. My children have written an alternative version which will be following, as soon as we get time to record it. :-D

@UkeIndy Thank you so much, Lonna! :-) You've inspired me, my new ambition is to have an after-school ukulele group at my son's school. Seeing you singing with the kids made me wish I could do the same. :-) Hugs X

Excellent, Ruth! Love your voice and the way you varied the tempo and ukulele accompaniment! A very original rendition!

[ukeyermind]

Most Excllent, Ruthie! Clap, clap, clap (ad infinitum)!

Really love the tempo changes and your beautiful singing voice.

I vote you "do" more covers and more "Ruth songs" because there's just not enough of you on the web for my liking . . .

Oh boll*cks I missed the première!This is so sweet and great and greater than that!

Thank you Ruth for this!I saw your kiddies first and didn't dare comment but that was fantastic too!

@ruth7784 Hi Ruth, thank you, I'm fine. Just got back from a uke-weekend with friends. The cats are fine too. How are you? 

[plinthman]

@ruth7784 Ha, ha, ha. In that case I think you don't need any lessons! :-)

The reason your version is better than mine is because I did a straight copy of Dylan's version (I don't know why I did that) and you did your own version. Doing a straight copy takes a little bit of skill and zero imagination.
