Default If You Could Read My Mind cover- Gordon Lightfoot

Probably one of my better covers...

Wow! Well done! Stripped down really brings out the heartache of the song. Your voice and playing are perfectly suited for such a melancholy song (though I’m sure you are happy go lucky away from the camera).

Cheers

Dave

Very nice!

Your approach to this song really emphasizes the sadness behind Lightfoot's lyrics. It's kind of heart breaking...

Well done!

Isn’t it great when a singer and a song is right in your wheel house?
Good job!
