Thanks for the kind words Dan!
I enjoyed tweaking it to suit my voice and making it a little different.

That is the kind of "cover" I like, Jamie. Great arrangement!

Sometimes you can hear the crickets over here, It's that "what, was it that bad?" feeling. Completely understood!

Nice Job Jamie!

Great job! If I hadn't read your other thread you'd have a hard time convincing me you learned it it just one day!

Hi, I'm ususally reluctant to comment on othwer people's recordings, but I liked your playing and the sad reflective "feeling" of the whole delivery.

If I had any criticisms, I'd suggest halving the length of the intro, and - you are somehow choking your vocals - this is a common thing for people unused to filling a roomful of people - Consider filling your lungs - the old diaphragm thing, try standing up when your perform/record, and be more proud of your voice.

Hope that helps.

Ol' Andy (who nowadays has no voice at all) - so treasure it whilst you have it!
