@justinotterguy: Thanks! I think it turned out pretty well. I suggest you check out Low's version, which inspired my version: http://youtu.be/Qy_bQq2sAoA
I don't resonate with the lyrics as much right now, but I anticipated this shift when I called it "the blues" instead of its actual title "street of dreams." So that title change may be why you haven't heard the original.
Oh ...and thanks for your kind words of encouragement, Ken!
Thanks, Ken -- I know my voice is not everyone's "cup of tea" so I appreciate it -- high praise coming from another musician such as yourself!
At some point I would like to do something studio proper, but that might not be for another few more years as I will probably be pretty busy with school for at least a little while longer. There’s a nice studio in town that is relatively cheap, it’s just a matter of me sitting down and putting together some songs worthy of investing that kind of energy into it. I suppose if I were collaborating with someone it would kind of force me to take it more seriously, but either way it’s on my list of things to do, for sure!
@thetworegs: Thanks! This one is one of the few I have recorded that turned out better than I could have hoped. Glad to hear that someone else enjoyed it.

Good strumming technique. Nice vocals. Good delivery. Keep it real!
Nice guitar like it

Good job, and a good choice to cover.
@TheRoseSerumSextet: Thank you for the kind words. Not many are brave enough to listen to my more improvisational stuff, so I do appreciate it!
@nazarevox: Thank you for listening and the encouraging feedback, Marcelo!
Love that lick!
You got something going on. Rough. Good.
that´s what i´m talking about...
Like this one Tom!
Thanks Ken! I was inspired by Madi Diaz's version. So if you like this version you might check out her version because it's pretty rad.
Sounds good Tom, better than the original I would say... I like what you did with it.

I haven't heard the original, but nice work Tom.
Cool acoustic version!
Thanks Ken!
Good one Tom.

Another nice one Tom. I would love to see some strings added to your music and a little fuller production as you have an awesome voice.

Too bad I can't remember the lyrics! Ooops. :)
