freaking brilliant absolutely perfect. braw tell yer maw.

Oh yes, Sandy. This is a brilliant re-interpretation. I do quite like the original, but I like this even better. It works so well strummed and sung in a higher register - who would have thought it?! Well, you obviously, lol. The recording is superb too. The left panning on the vox works wonderfully.

I love this to bits. My favourite of yours to date!

Nice interpretaion, a lot of heart gone into that.  Love that Sus6 at the end.

Always loved this song, and had to listen...this is a wonderful performance. I listened to it on headphones so the panning really stood out.

You may not believe but I didn't hear this song for ages. In fact, the original was so beaten that all covers are very welcome. Well done, looks heartfelt.

PS I like your new signature.

[Geir]

WOW

this is brilliant Sandy !!

Really a fantastic performance !

[Redler]

This is superb, Sandy!! A brilliant cover. The slower tempo was a very good idea! I love the tones and that "gritter" production in your acoustic tunes!!!
