'Is Paris Burning?' - Greeny covers Ferryman for the SC Early Years Fest

[Ferryman_1957]

Oulala, comme il s'agit d'une chanson sur Paris (brule t'il) ...je répond en français

Merci beaucoup JP. I won't repsond in French as I understand it better than I write it, but thanks for the kind words (I only had to look up "bluffé" and I've learned a new French word  ). And I'm sure Tim will agree

Thanks Nigel, once again your song and Tim's cover are great!
What a great community Songcrafter.org is...
...but you know, I hardly speak any English! (nobody is perfect!) and I only work with Deep translator...

[Bishmanrock]

Great imagining of the track, love the little tweaks (and the not so little tweak break!) and extra layering with those synths, everything feels completely natural and a great fit

WOW what a cover, it really shines (that guitar in the reprise!!!) ! And then I listened to the original by Nigel that is sweeter and I really loved it ! A fantastic song and lyric, really a gem Nigel !

[StephenM]

really love the keys and the whole thing actually...I will have to go back and listen to the orig...I think Ive heard it because Nigel hasn't posted that much...and I have listened to all of his list...but I don't recognize this...
really really nice song here...has a 60's vibe to me...like the Byrds of the like...excellent

[kenny mac]

Absolutely fantastic  what a stunning job.
Listened to it in my car on way to work and was astounded by the quality.
Ferryman must be delighted.
A steller performance.

[Blooby]

I like both versions, but I love your take on it. That 12-string has been a great addition to your arsenal. It is such a logical addition to your guitar stable after listening to you these many years. You picked a great synth sound for those choruses. Fine arrangement and performance. I've said it before, but I just love your bass playing.

Killer take on a great tune. Congrats to the both of you.

Before I start I gotta agree with Blooby... your Bass playing is absolutely brilliant Tim, full of colour and life - superb. But a great take on a great track... I checked out Nigel's original (Nigel, was great to hear your excellent vocal, loadsa character). Tim you have done a great honour here to the original. Some great touches, beautifully produced and arranged, that cool trademark bass playing and yeah wow that killer middle section with the quiet bit and then that f**king killer riffing.

Ditto that.

I remember having this one on my piPod SC playlist many years ago. It's such a great melody, both the verses and the chorus, and the original is one it takes balls to cover. Good thing Tim is the man for the job.

This is really excellent Tim. You've stayed true to the original, and yet given it that magic greeny touch. Love what you've done!!
