Fantastic cover Jim. The tranquility is amazing. You have such a soothing and natural soundscape, and your vocals were icing on the cake.

Like T I also am in love with this version of this song!!!

James, there are a lot of great singers out there but I can't think of anyone I rather cover this one than you. This is absolutely fantastic .... I've had it on repeat a while now :D and will fall asleep soon with a big smile on my face. And it will be my wakeupcall on my piePod alarmclock tomorrow morning !!

THANK YOU !!!

geir i can go to my bed happy in the knowledge that you like my version of your song i was up to the v6 tracks still wanting to put more onto this when i realised i was trying to hide my inadequacies (issat how you spell that)i suggest you all revisit the geir original. but inadequecies are the thing that shows you are human and therefore leads to a connection bladaybladaybla.

tommy i know a todd rundgren song we can cover. "we gotta get you a woman"

i reduced geirs song to the 5 most important notes in the song, in geirs version there are lots more notes but the minimalist (amateur) in me sought to see how few i could get away with (too many notes  ma brain hertz) last night i got down to 8 but this afternoon i found the main 5.

i have a theory no a hypothesis find the main notes and you will  find the key, geir knows the answer
48 or is it 42.

Jim, this works beautifully. It's just lovely, I've been looping it for a while and it is just fabulous. Can't really say more than that.

Cheers,
