Strangers Out Of Blue LITLR: ORH covers St Thomas (again) with video

[Oldrottenhead]

St Thomas' sister Kate posted a video of her late brother performing this one live in Oslo to celebrate the release of the Documentary about his life. i have done this a couple of times but never live. so i thought i'd give it a go.

a video to start, but when the kids go to bed i'll do a live in the living room version on my micro br, so it can be added to the festival player.

here's the video to get the ball rolling.

okay got the kids to bed, 19 takes later, interrupted by toilet flushing on three occasions, pillow fights, requests for toast etc, i finally got it done, my voicebox is in shreds, more from shouting "get tae sleep!" than singing.

This is superb James,
One of your best to date, imho

[Johnny Robbo]

Beautiful, James. Absolutely gorgeous... the tenderness of the lyrics is a perfect match for your vocal style. As Alex said... it's a keeper!

[Bluesberry]

Beautiful, I would love to hear the other 18 takes.......you really suffered for this one.

[ODH]

Lovely.  Meditative.  I could almost hear you staring into the middle distance as you performed that, transported.

And I was transported too.

Nicely done Jim .... The shredded vocal adds to the song rather than take away... Good one !!

[Hook]

Dude, I wish I had wrote that song. What a great performance, fragile and sincere and absolutely brilliant.
Rock on!
