This is a song I love ...

That guitar is phenomenal, what a dynamic sound to it. The new mic sure doesn't suck, your vocals have been off the charts on these last 2 posts. That thing allows your soul to turn digital.

Never heard the song before, so for this being my first listen, I'll never listen to the original.

My piepod is strong with GeirFU

Me too! My favourite Cat Stevens song. And this is an excellent cover of it. Well done, as usual.

Yusuf was on TV today! He performed at the Rally to Restore Sanity in Washington, DC.

Father-Son songs are particularly poignant to me right now. I've never heard this one before, and your version is wonderful. It's going to the piePod right now for further consideration.

I truly like this version. Your voice begins with such a frail quality, and then it kicks up a notch. Just wonderful.

Great performance. I think your voice has grown quite a bit since early posts.

Downloaded.

Just one more thing, a monkey!!!!!!

You captured raw beauty here Geir.  Your set up is better than any fancy recording studio now for these kinds of recordings.  Your acoustic sounds incredible for "plugged" in, very natural sound, no piezo quack at all, very impressive.

Alternate Tunings: CAUTION: your fingers have to be in different places
