Title: "Down on my luck" - A.K. and Geir's tribute to Robert Burns
Post by: Geir on January 04, 2015, 05:49:54 PM
This wasn't easy to sing !! My voice is so different from Robbies and I kept hearing his voice all the time .......

Thank you for the time you spent here Rob, and for all the beautiful music you gave us !! It will be treasured !

And thank you Kelvin for making this beautiful piece of music and letting us have a chance to pay our respect to our friend in a way I know he'd appreciate.

Fantastic Geir,Rob would be so proud of this.
I know just how it felt to sing these words,and I guess the talent he shared and the impact that Rob made here is  carrying us on a wave of emotion.
I can hear the feeling in every word my friend.
A great tribute.
Kenny.

I think Rob would have been touched by these tributes. Fantastic performance Geir. I am little taken aback how this whole thing has made me feel, I guess you don't need to meet someone these days the kinda know them and feel the sorrow of the loss. It wasn't the fact that Rob was a great musician (which he was, what a voice), but he was a lovely guy and one of us - a songcrafter. Same feelings of insecurity "is this any good" or "I could of done this better", and of course ... "I've got GAS". I picked up the guitar last night, didn't really feel like playing it - that will pass, life goes on. RIP Rob.

Hi Geir,

Well, you brought tears to my wife's eyes.
Such a great touch on the vocals.
We are loving it here.

I played it loud enough so that Robbie could hear.

Many thanks,
Kelvin and Tina.

A very fitting vocal tribute Geir. Listening to the words in this song is just very powerful.
