Great cover I always like this song and it was sure fun to watch you play some day I will get brave enough to put my mug on the camera
Well done brother

hmmm I just discovered this...generally I go to the latest list to see what was posted... this doesn't show because it's the format of the post... glad i found it...
first off, watching you play with your strum hand I see now why how you get some of the unique sounds you get from the guitar...its what makes me be able to pick you out of a guitarist lineup, so to speak....not visually but audibly.
in this media your voice sounds a little different and very nice... I don't know the song but found it lovely and interesting... and I enjoyed seeing your kitch!

Fantastic, Mike. The Smiths defined me for most of the 80's, particularly the Queen is Dead album and then particularly this song. It was great to see you perform this and with such ease (which I know is only achieved with talent and hard work).

Bravo

A great cover version! You look so relaxed and at ease while playing. The whole performance sounds very natural and you're really able to sell the song :)

I always like watching a SC member playing live. This is very cool, and you did great with it, Mike!
