Beautifully done, Geir! This version adds a special folky feel to the original, and I love the sound of the 12-string. I did a version of this with Ronniejm (which was pretty faithful to the original), and I know how hard it is to sing. Just another excellent performance from you. Love it  :)

Superb delivery. One of my Beatles favourites.

That Mic doesn't sound half bad either.

p.s. pie hole (and cake hole) are slang for 'mouth' in the UK  :D

And you did an excellent job on that one, both of you!!! My version is loosely based on a live acoustic version by Jonas Fjeld (a Norwegian artist) and the version I play on top of the Drum track provided by Rata-tat-tat in collabs.

One of mine too!!
I'm still undecided on the mic, but for a rough recording it seems ok.

Ahh yes ...  that's what I meant too, or "bread-box" as we say in Norway. I was beginning to wonder if there were any other "obscure" meaning that I wasn't aware of ... well there still may be I guess :)

cheers and thanks for the feedback!!

Geir the mic sounds very good and a fair price.  I read about it at

Now, allow me to make things worse. Mud pie. Bung-a-low. Al Bundy.
Now, allow me to make things better. Guitar hole. Pie hole. Symmetry. Stereo. Balance. I like the way you think.
If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much space.

Just a random question, Geir... is the 'I've got blisters on my fingers' quote on your avatar from The Beatles? It's what Ringo says (it's not John as some people think) at the end of Helter Skelter...  :)
