A year after George Michael passing
As my fellow half Cypriot George Michael died nearly a year ago unwanted to pay tribute in my own way. Here is my solo arrangement of Carleas Whisper

Beautiful! It's amazing how such a simple melody can be so haunting and memorable. Great job
|
That is beautiful, Mark. Love your tone!

Thanking you
I'm really pleased you guys like it. I really wasn't sure if it was up to standard. I hear a lot of holes in my performance here and was going to re-record it.

You know I'm kidding -- it is gorgeous. We tend to focus on the things that we think are weak -- whether it be playing, certain aspects of our appearance, etc., and it's surprising to us when others don't notice. Don't change a thing on this recording. Many guitarists and aspiring guitarists would die to be able to play like you, so own it and let us enjoy it. George would be proud. |

And yes, you missed notes, but it flows nicely and that's what it's all about :D |
That song was always a guilty pleasure. The melody and lyrics so poignant. Nicely done.

Very nice. Tone and execution is superb. Great song. It is so often that I like cover interpretations much more than the original and that is certainly the case here. Great job!

Thanks Mark. And we have similar names :)
|
Really love this interpretation. Think I'll go listen again. Thanks for posting!
|
Yeah - that's great stuff there. A few days after he died I recorded a vocal version, but it's not in this league!
|
What a sweet interpretation. Well played, and the recording sparkles. Bravo!
|
Very special performance, Mark. Really enjoyed that! You have great talent!!!
