The song title is appropriate as I may well be asking for forgiveness after you guys watch this!
This song is probably the biggest hit of a favourite artist of mine, David Gray. This is not the whole song but it's several verses and I thought you would have the idea from the amount of the song I did.
There's been a lot of discussion about playing and singing lately so I thought I would have another go. I would comment that doing both (at this early stage for me) causes the smoothness of the playing to suffer. Nothing I can do to improve my ordinary singing I'm afraid!
Sorry I can't get the good quality videos that Al produces, I'll have to take the time to read all of his tech forum posts.
TOVO - Please Forgive Me
Hi Tovo, very nice video. As Bill mentioned your strumming is very lively and consistent. You sing is very good. I have a lot of respect for singers/players. I have no voice , but if I try I loose the coordination. I have a hard time walking and chewing gum.
Congratulation

Thank you Marc. Not that I think I have it licked by any means but the coordination comes with a surprisingly small amount of practice and in a way the singing helps as it forces you to share your focus and rely more on muscle memory...hope that makes sense.Hi Tovo, very nice video.

Tony,
I've got no idea what you're apologising for mate. I love it. I love your singing (full of heart and it sounds good - you can easily hear it over your playing too, which is something I have trouble with). I love your playing too - it is smooth, consistent and very relaxed.
I don't know this song - but I might just go and check Dave out.
I love your work!
Pizza, beer, chocolate, guitar points to you - take your pick.
The only point I would make is that it would be great to be able to see all of your face for the whole take.

Thanks Michele you're always very kind. Yeah sorry about cutting off the top of my head I had the camcorder very close to get the sound as good as possible and didn't frame it very well. (Ummm I'll take the beer at this time of the day! )
