Oh man! Now that's wonderful.
this burglary-fest is turning out some fabulous stuff.
You had a slide fest didn;t you Geir? And it worked so well! This is another brilliant cover of a great song. This sounds fantastic, I love what you have done with this.
Cheers,
Nigel
Great song fro Tharek, and also great vox from Geir, thank you guys....Alex
JUST BLOODY BRILLIANT.
simply beautiful G-man. A sublime listen.
This is beautiful...an outstanding version of a spectacular song Geir.
Stunning cover, Geir - and less disturbing sans the clown memorabilia. :o :D
Geir bro......
Because of the way I feel at this moment in time, I think that this Cover Highlights the true beauty of this site and the tribute fest......
I don't think that any one person has ever appreciated my music to this extent...........
The extent required to recreate it......
And reinterpret it!
What makes it more beautiful is the fact that we have never met!!!!!!!
This was probably the song which most defines me (In terms of personal Peace...)
I think that the "TRIBUTE FEST" needs its own section on the forum!
These are not Just Covers........
These are tributes to friends!
Not things to just be lost in the covers section.....
The Tribute fest has become something bigger than what it was when it started...
I Love ya man...(http://www.doppelme.com/TRANSPARENT/100/DM253038A4D/avatar.png)
Thank you for taking the time to understand my music!!!!!
And Bro..........
Considering I Never Posted the Lyrics........ It means Even More to me.........
Here is my version....

That's not a bad idea T. Maybe after the festival ends, I'll make a "Songcrafter Tributes" board and move all of the TributeFest posts into it. Then people can continue to make tribute covers whenever they want to and post them there.
I could only echo all that's been said!
Fantastic cover Geir.
LG
I agree about it invoking Leonard Cohen... but even beyond that, it's special and unique and a carefully crafted tribute. Great song, great performance.

Yes, lets do that 64G, I have so many more I want to try someday, so many great original songs on here, not enough time. It would be so great to have a special spot where we put these covers made with love.
thank you everyone for the kind comments, this was a pleasure to do, kinda like finding a hidden gem. I had forgot about this song when I was playing through Tharek's old songs and when I heard it I just knew I had to give it a try.
T my man, you are one talented young man, and I'm glad you liked this interpretation of your fine song!!

Ahhh I forgot to mention that ... I've got Mark to thank for that, he helped me out .... Sorry Mark !
I did get most of the lyrics but where stuck on the opening line ... thought I heard "millionaire" in there ::) ;D Mark was kind enough to type down the whole song for me !!! Thanks again Mark.
And thank you for making such wonderful music T !
Sometimes, Geir, you find a song that is a Particularly good vehicle for your unique and wonderful voice.
This is such an occasion. Thank you both for the song and the cover. Love it. ;D
This came up on my MP3 player today at work...
Made me smile Bro
Thank you!
