Default Cover: "Iris" by The Goo Goo Dolls

Hello!

This week, I made a cover of a song that was one of my favorites when I was a young teenager. The Goo Goo Dolls had a way to really grab me with their music, especially with this song. I hope you enjoy!

Andrew

Haha, I was hoping someone would say that given the wide range of ages at AGF. Those were some fun times when his song was popular! Thanks for the compliments!

Really, really well done Drew. You can clearly feel every word of the vocals, and every strum of the strings... when you feel it, that is when the Showman comes thru. Excellent playing and singing, many of us (Me!) are jealous of your vocal ability.

I occasionally play that song at open mics but I don't sound near that good!

Hey man...love the Goo Goo Dolls and you did a soulful cover.
Iris is a simple song, the delivery is everything and you delivered.

Wow! What a really great string of replies to come home to after a weekend on the road. Thank you SO much for the kind words and for the encouragement. It's a pleasure to share this song with you.
