You and your sister (cover)

I got me a new mic and a pre-amp and I picked up the Jumbo Eko (I’ll do this again when my fingertips have recovered). I tried to do finger picking when I was a teen, but didn’t pursue it as it seemed like too much hard work at the time. Today, this happened.

Topped with ambient strings, flute and viola played on my M-Audio KeyStudio, here’s a cover of This Mortal Coil’s ‘You and Your Sister’, complete with bum notes.

Their version is awesome.

Somebody requested I do this song a few years ago … better late than never!

Enjoy

Oh my - loving your higher register as well! Your voice sounds like it's floating through the clouds... Absolutely beautiful.

Your guitar playing is fine. Sounds like something Leonard Cohan would do.

That's really pretty Jane! It draws a person in.

Lady Jane said November 26, 2012 3:27pm

Thank you, JMT. Comments taken on board and new version uploaded :)

That's really pretty. If you double your vocal tracks and use one each with less effect the words would be understandable.
