Is just a piece of paper
To say a few lines
Make up my mind
So she can read it later

Thanks everyone for the exceptionally nice comments.

Oh yes! great stuff chunk. RT4eva! he doesn't so much tune into a higher power as much as he IS the higher power :P

I have always loved RT since I first heard 'I feel so good', that must have been the 90's! mock tudor is my fav.

I had never heard this song, but you have captured the RT feel very well indeed, masterfully. You own your voice, I can hear the effortless power you are delivering and it sounds bliss. ! works amazingly well, congrats man, nice when all the hard work is captured. feels good.

May I ask if you recorded using a click? if so the flow of the acoustic is amazing, personally i seem to struggle to keep that feel once i have a click in my ears shot!

Hi, Thanks. No I didn't use a click. I find a click track quite offputting. I recorded  the acoustic and vocal live on to a minidisc. Imported that to my pc and then added a bit of electrig guitar.

Oh yeah, this is deeply impressive!  Rich gtr tones and wonderful vox.  Perfect mix.  Love RT and his gtr work is not easy to cover.  You've done a wonderful job with this!  Look forward to hearing more.  Take a big bow on this one!  DD

Thanks for listening!

Thanks for listening and comments. I posted a cover of Persuasion by RT a couple of weeks ago.
