Another winner Mark. I never heard that song before, but I really like your work on it. Thanks for posting that for us.
Pizza. BTW, your guitar and mic combination sound great.

good job, Mark.
Great strumming/timing and a nice touch on the strings.
And of course HUGE props for singing again. Something I haven't repeated since the contest.

Jay - You know I didn't quite notice it before but you may be right. I'll see if I can tweak it a bit. Thanks.
Bob - Thanks. I couldn't quite get Neil's way of strumming on this as I haven't found a video he does in this key on acoustic. I think he normally plays this key on electric. After messing around with it for a while it seemed to work alright.
Marc - Thanks!! Now I just have to knuckle down and get enough courage to try someting a bit more elaborate like the stuff you have been playing lately.
Wrench - Thank you. I do like the combination as well.
Al - Thanks!! Easier done when I'm not doing both at the same time. Some day........

Mark,
Nice job with Powderfinger. I am not familiar with the version that you mentioned. I only know the electric version. Good for you for singing too. I will have to work up to that one. One thing I was thinking as I watched though, I was wondering if you have experimented with the strumming and mixing it up a bit, eg, go into a series of downstrokes (at verse end). But maybe with is just me refering to how I am hearing the song in my head from the electric version and it does not fit with the one that you have referenced here.
Once again, nice job,
Beaker.

Hi Mark
You do play really well and produce good vids, I enjoy watching them, I dont know the song but you sounded very Bob Dylan esk to me in that song (Niel young can sing high cant he ) that was a compliment i hope :unsure: I understand what you mean about singing is a work in progress, i feel the same and just want to improve and I admire you for putting it out there as its the only way u can improve, which you are and i enjoyed listening to it. well done
I looked in the vocal coach section, i only found 3 lessons is there going to be more?
cheers
Brad

Lovely job Mark! You always do a great job on the playing with such a nice touch. Loved the singing without moving your lips! No way I can get most of NY songs right... only Heat of Gold so far. Sound quality was good. Syncing sounded ok audacity can be fiddly to get it exact.
