I did this as a tribute to my friend Rachel, whose death reminded me to enjoy the life I have because she no longer has that opportunity.
The fact that I have learned enough to attempt it I owe to Neil and you guys. Thank you sincerely.
I don't think it suits my voice all that well...but that's not the point.
PLEASE NOTE: If video was recently uploaded it will not work yet. YouTube will need a little more time to get the video ready. Please check back again soon.

Tony,
I thought that was fantastic. You've obviously been practicing and it has payed off big time. Everything is sounding great. The guitar sounds so good and your vocals were smooth and spot on.
I loved it!!

Tony,
Really nice job on this. You really stepped it up for this one and your playing was really good. Tough song to sing at the lower octave but your voice is full enough that it sounded good. Is that your new Seagull guitar, it sounds really great .

Tony, wow. I have never seen you so realax and having fun playing like this. We can see you head and shoulder keeping the beat. If this is not relaxed, I do not know what it is. Your voice was fine, you have adapted it for the tonality, great sign of gaining maturity in singing.
This is your best video from my point of view. I am sorry for the lost of your friend but this emotion, however, seems to have carried you to a new level of playing.

WOW! Really, really beautiful and a lovely way to remember Rachel and to start some healing for yourself.
That was a great performance. Your playing must have been close to perfect, no small feat given that you also sang it with lots of emotion.
I have to agree that your playing just keeps getting better. You've got to be happy with your progress.
