One of the loveliest songs ever written. I ain't got nothin' on Carla Kihlstedt, but I do what I can.

That's really good. Probably one of the best covers I've heard on YouTube. I don't suppose you've got an MP3? It'd be great to put on mixtapes.

[shuckslbj]

Thanks, grandma. No MP3, but I've thought about recording it on my 16-track. If I do, I'll post a link for it on here and let you know.

[grurg]

Now thats a performance! , you REALLY should make a quality MP3, would be worth it....

just my opinion :)

[thefortysixand2]

I wouldn't be surprised if Carla hasn't blushed at this..

[seanmotley]

This is an amazingly well done cover, of an amazingly well written song. Great job!

[Cephalonimbus]

This is a great cover! I really like your voice.

[mszpbshiix]

beautiful soothing voice! like a perfect lullaby.

[howunoriginal2]

[lkngood42]

Brilliant. I love this man.

[sergiomontemayor]

really nice voice man

distinctive musician

[sadhbh0loves0paul]

It was beautiful :)

[umpfgrmbl]

Hey, that's a jewel - great singer!

[Platinummm01]

Great performance. Just one suggestion -- even tho you're an excellent guitar player, you should not let it overshadow your vocals. You have very distinctive, very emotional vocals that need to be miked separately from the instrumental. Also, let's see your face when you sing.  Please keep posting performances and let us know when you have a collection of performances we can purchase. Thanks!!
