Very nice, sir. ER

Lovely stuff, Mr Russe. Your voice is sounding very cool indeed. Great control - great story telling, showed off perfectly in this stripped down arrangement. Lala, x.

outstanding cover, fantastic vocals.

Excellent

Ooh I love a little Rocker !!!

Yep agree Cool man

Really like this one mate.

This is great!

Really cool cover.

Really cool mate.

Really nice song Andy, I've often thought that one man and a guitar is the hardest thing to put over. There's nowhere to hide. No need to worry about this. If I had only read the lyrics it would be enough, to have them to music is a bonus.

Perfect to start the day. Thank you.

Apllause......beautiful command. I could here your voice in film music. Great once again AR.

Poetry . . . Well crafted, and superbly delivered.

A beauty of song beautifully performed Bravo.....

It's three mics. A Rode NT1000 large condensor for the vocal. The guitar had two SM57s on it, one at the 12th fret, one just below the bridge, panned hard left and right. If I had more condensors I'd use them on the guitar - when I track things separately I always use the Rode on an acoustic (unless it's a resonator, that pushes a condensor too hard) - using the 57s like this seems to produce are fair amount of hiss!

sounds great. What microphone are you using?

If I had a pound for every time I played this I could probably buy a very nice Gibson, but I would love to have done it just like this. I bet this was closer to how it was written.

Nice take on a great cover.

Nice job Andrew! I really like the laid back feel to it. Your voice is especially good. Great cover of a great song.

LOVE those sounds.

Oh yeah, smooth sounds.

And this gives me some release - but not loads! I was going to ask if it's an ebow, but it's not is it? Sounds like a real bow?

I find this one a slightly more challenging listen!

This one follows Hopey Changey really well

I listened to these the other day while I was doing something else... I forgot to come back and comment. This is a gorgeous sound.

Wow. Amazing track. Starts all fairytale-like, then it evolves into something entirely different - can't make my mind up whether it's threatening or "hey let's party whether you like it or not"... but it's certainly insistent... And then I'm back home to fairytale land... but I feel slightly changed and not quite the innocent I was before... The tinkly little theme that I enticed me earlier sounds a little more sinister now.

Cool chorus on this one... but you're right there's something... It really shines later on after the bridge- I like the interaction between the vocal, bass and guitar - really bounces. But earlier it doesn't have the same effect and I can't really spot the difference - except the later one is surrounded by instrumental and maybe feels looser? The earlier ones feel a bit "held back" and "correct", and they don't draw attention to themselves like the later one. They also leads straight into and out of a verse section that doesn't sound a lot different - maybe you're right, maybe volume? Maybe take the drums down on the sung verses? Something to make the chorus stick out more? But yeah, this is a cool one.

Foot-tapping and exotic. Loving those p90 vibes.

Oh yeah, nice one.

Aha! Can't beat a falling bass line (I'm working on several things at the moment, and they've all got falling bass lines) ... Nice one, like it.

Intriguing sounds, quite a ride.

I agree with Guest (47.189.109.204) - "you're not done with this one" - I think there's another version, somewhere between the original and this one. It's a gorgeous song.

And a new verse! I listened to all three versions again - this is the one (which is probably a good thing, as it's the latest!!)

Oh yeah, I remember this from the other day on songcrafters. Love it.

Oh yeah, gorgeous sounds.

Cool sounds

Like I said - WOW!

I found this kinda challenging at first... so I listened to it again, (and again!)... and now I'm kinda "WOW!" about it. The melodies and chords are amazing.

Wow - those leads! Nice one
