A better quality recording. Hope you all enjoy, and you get a gold star if you endure all 7 minutes of it! It's an extremely beautiful song and I really love singing it, and I hope you enjoy my cover :). X
Still love and watch all your Streetlight covers. Absolutely in love with them and have been for more than 5 years. You should make more covers of their songs if you have the will and time to do it :) stay safe, much love from Slovenia
+macdougall101 Ahh that's dead nice! Thanks! I am hoping to put more up soon but a bit bogged down with uni right now! So chuffed you like 'em so much!! :)
I love this song. The last verse is one of my favorite verses ever written, and you crushed it. I damn near cry when I hear you singing it. Very well done.
great goodness, Marvelous!!!!! you've done it again, ha. as wonderful as this is, any progress w/ The Hands that Thieve? not sure how i know it, but i'm CERTAIN you'd make that song something entirely of it's own :) Cheers, my dear! -El Crispy
+christopher perger Cheers! There has been some progress with the Hands that Thieve, but I still don't really feel like I've broken it's back. I can play it ok, but never make a video until I'm totally comfortable with the song and know what feeling I want to create with it... if that makes sense! But do not fear, I have not forgotten it!! :)
good stuff :) maybe consider a 3/4 count to slim the speed to your style? just a thought, and so glad to see you're doing that Voodoo You Do, Cheers, my dear! Crispy
Love your version, great as always! Keep it up! :) btw what kind of guitar is that in the background? Never seen one like that it kind of looks like a sitar.
such wonderful Cover you are creating! You make me See the lyrics in another light once more! Btw.: are you from Scotland? (just try to use my knowledge about accents ^^ )
alice after enjoying learning and playing two tom waits songs thanks to you, i have now learned this one too -- but it seemed long ~ ~ ~ ~ kinda darted off in too many directions ~ ~ ~ ~ also i didnt like the MISTER DYLAN lyric sorry ~ ~ ~ so i cut it in half (solomon-like) and i have posted it ~ ~ ~ ~ i said "na na" not "la la" - and while i sound plausible you sound much better than me
This is a year late but take it from a toh kay fan : what Alice does is beautiful, but not what Toh Kay does. She makes it her own, as Kalnoky makes it his own again in every version he creates of the song. (There's a Streetlight Manifesto version, a Toh Kay version, there may even be an attempt at it in the B.O.T.A.R setting). It's "na na" in the original as well.
Last was about a year and a half ago. Thom Kay is my Cobain, essentially. You do him more than justice. Keep playing music. Is it cool if I pass this video on to people that can make things happen as far as that goes? (Venue owners, etc..?)
Hey man, thank you so much for your kind words! I don't pretend to be a hardcore fan like you, but I'm so into his lyrics and his way with melody I just had to have a go myself! Feel free to do as you like with my stuff. I live in the middle of a field in England so I don't do many gigs but by all means spread the music :)
