I have goosebumps - Can't believe it!!! You sound just like the real thing, Rob. You are becoming a pro with the MBR in your own right! Excellent playing and vocals.

I have only one thing to say!...

An absolutely fantastic job!!!

Wonderful!

Probably my favorite Lennon song - you've conveyed the gentle tranquility of this song admirably.

If you haven't seen this audio interview, I highly recommend:

Damn man, you slay me with this one.  I have loved this song my whole life, I play it all the time, but damn man what a cover.  This is like the definitive cover, it may even be better (dare I say it, the horror) than the original.  John Lennon always did say he sang this flat, well good sir, you did not sing this flat, you sang this as if this song means more than life itself to you.  Beautiful.  when you put your mind to something it really comes out great.  What a full rich soundscape you have created.  I don't think anybody on here will dare cover this song now, after this.  This one is going to get many a BUMP in the future, it is BUMPworthy in the extreme. WOW.  Like Mark said sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!

Not spoilt in any way at all. You could scare the hell out of McCartney by playing that outside his house.......

I have always thought this song was a gem off the Let it Be album, and this is just such a great cover version
