More great choices.

@Guest: Thanks for the kind words! I always try to go with songs that I can imagine a live audience listening to, so it's cool this song was received that way.

Very nice Tom. Another thoughtful song. I'd enjoy being in the audience to see you perform. You create a mood, an atmosphere, with just an acoustic guitar and your voice. Well done!

Thanks, Dok! I appreciate the appreciating!

Like it Tom. Easy to listen to and appreciate

Nice take....I like this better than the original...

Thanks @doktordoktor! I think you definitely picked up what I was going for on this one. Cool to have the final product received in the way I intended.

Kind of pure and clear, like your other songs. Nice version

Nice, Tom. Simple and effective

Thanks, Colleen! I'm surprised that people are enjoying this one because it is so casually done. I guess it goes to show that simplicity is often the best route.

Sorry I missed this one earlier in the month. It's a real beauty. Love the flowy feel to this. Feel like I'm sitting on the back of a car, listening while the ocean is off in the distance...

@doktordoktor - Thanks! I know my voice isn’t everyone’s cup of tea, so I appreciate the feedback. Keeps me motivated to keep playing, recording, and singing.

Thanks so much for stopping by to listen and provide encouraging words, @peppermintsky! I feel like you've been listening to my stuff longer than almost everyone here, so I feel honored that you keep coming back to listen.

Nice version Tom. Great voice you have there buddy!

Lovely breezy stuff - and your voice sounds beautiful.

Thank you for the kind words, @Eshar!

I really enjoyed listening. Thanks for sharing.

@JohnnyStone Thanks for listening!

@TheProods Thank you!

This is an AMAZING cover, Tom!

@fallingupart: Ahh, I need to enunciate better. The last verse is supposed to go "But the fire came to rest/In your white velvet breast/So I somehow know/That it's safe." Also, the other verse you mention goes "I forgot all my songs/The words now are wrong." Thanks for lending another ear so I can clarify the words better.

@VishnuExpress (BabaPrince Joseph): I didn't write this particular song, but when I sing it I am thinking of the concept of "Monkey Mind" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mind_monkey in addition to the concept of "Getting the Monkey Off Your Back." No literal monkeys were harmed in the making of this song. ;)

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