Well ... didn't want the pianorecording go to waste ... (Tried this before "Birds (https://songcrafters.org/forum/micro-br-b65/neilfest-%27birds%27/0/)" ) .. so even if my voice is not quite back where it should be, I had a stab at it today ...... Both this and Birds where suggested as pianobased song I could try on my newly tuned piano, by Greeny and SdC

Yes!!!!! Cool as cool can be - Geir the piano man!!! Just as the song should be, and your vox gave it that extra twist to make it your own. I am fully impressed.
Love it!!

So much to be said for minimal productions. Clean, honest, well sung and performed. The essence of good music. Good song Geir.

This is so perfect. The piano is beautiful, but you make the vocal your own. Stunning stuff. AGAIN!!!!!

This is one of myfave NY songs and you did it justice. Your bvoice isn't quite there compared to Birds but you still did a great job. Super piano playing.

The vocal delivery is so good that I almost didn't notice the absence of guitar!
Jeg liker det veldig godt!

Time for a shameless selfbumb disguised by answering an unanswered quistion ::)
and thanks for the feedback guys!!
The only good thing I remember from that week is that I got my Morgan acoustic .... (I should have been in Scotland and had planned to meet up with James, but was in bed all week)
Quote from: facemask93 on June 28, 2009, 04:35:44 PMExcellent mate , the piano's tone recorded so well on the Mbr , what setting did you have it onAs far as I can recall ( I had very high fever at the time, probably the bird flu) I used the Yoga stereo mic to record the piano. I think I used the P01:Flat preset on the mbr for this one. and probably "P04:live mix" for the mastering.

On This Day bump.
Great cover. I love that piano.
I need to get my piano retuned. I had it tuned last year by Mr. Opporknockity. It sounded great, but two weeks later it was out of tune again. I phoned him and said I wanted him to come back and retune it, but he said "Sorry, Opporknockity only tunes once." ;)

Thanks for the bump.
Wonderful rendition. I have always wanted to figure out "Cinaman Girl," and I think you inspired me to go do so.
Nice.
