An acoustic guitar and vocal works for me every time when it's done this well! It's good to hear you're recording again Geir.

Beautifully done. This stripped down style is so effective. We get every small detail of that vocal and every note of that great bit of guitar backing. Great version Geir.

Thanx for all the kind feedback my friends!! I really appreciate it !


It was about time I got back

I just had a weekend getting 3/5 of my old band together and I had prepared most of a song that has some 15/8 guitar over 4/4 bass and drum for the intro (for 7 1/2 4/4 measures ). We actually managed to get it structured and made a rough recording (despite all the heavy water Akevitt) so we won't forget it until we meet again. And then it just get crazy after that. We were quite excited to get back together (the drummer is Jarle my brother, who also has been rather absent here lately) and are already thinking this must not stop here. So if it goes anywhere I'll keep you posted .

cheers

I got goosebumbps ! That's an awesome version, and I like the change of being singed by a man, good good take

I'm glad this got bumped so I didn't miss it.

I'm always happy to hear Geir singing with just an acoustic, but this one is exceptional. I love this song, I love performing this song, but the way you do it adds an extra gravity that is special. The vocal is absolutely stunning - understated but intense, and rises in the right places.

Absolutely incredible.
