[Flash Harry]

We had five years left to cry in....

One of Bowie's most poignant songs, opened with trepidation, click .....

wow!

It's a different song. More intimate, more soul.

Nice one James.

[cuthbert]

Yes indeed!

Really digging the intimate atmosphere of your LitLR approach, and the echo on your vocal is right on. A introspective and low-key beauty of a cover - well done, James.

One of my prefered songs of David Bowie...

You really succeed two difficult things to do when we all here do a cover :
to respect the spirit of the song as she was written by the songwriter &
to appropriate the song, make it as if it was your own song.

Here, you sing this beauty of a song in an intimate, deeply soulful rendition... The LILR session vox/acoustic
guitar with reverb echo effects goes perfectly with your cover

Love it.

I like this.  Stripped back and sincere.  Authentic.

Well done, James, well done.

You don`t sound like Mariah.  Very cool live take. I love bowie. Great choice!

Every song from this album was just fucking brilliant.

Great cover with very impressive interpretation! Here's so many fine nuances on your vocal!
