Ness,

WOW! WOW! WOW! Another power performance, but I've come to expect that from you. You really know how to tug on the old heart strings... Good thing you use your superpower for good. I'm a little speechless ... so hopefully I won't blubber too much.

I've listened to it 4 times now, and yep - every time I LOVE it more. In fact the same can be said of your videos.

It is a beautiful song to be sure. I've seen you and Tamara perform it and Raccoon themselves and this is by far my favourite rendition. It's SO beautiful, incredibly beautiful, ridiculously beautiful and so heart felt.

Watching you perform is just SO enjoyable and SO inspiring for me. It makes me want to try harder and to be a better guitarist, a better singer, a better musician, a better performer. I LOVE the way you put your heart and soul into everything you play. And your skills and talents ... well I don't have the words. You are the bees knees, the real McCoy, amazing.

OK - by now you probably get the idea that I think this video is OK, not too bad. :P :) So I'll leave it there.

WOW!

Shel

G'day Vanessa


I'm speechless


I have never heard of the band Racoon but I really hope they get to see this somehow.


Is it just me or what? Some of the songs that have been posted here at TG are bloody brilliant enough to make a TG album !

Vanessa you made my day

Cheers Scott

Vanessa, that is an absolutely beautiful song. You played and sung it so well! Looks really difficult to juggle this tune's intermittent single notes and chord strums, while singing. You do it so effortlessly!

I think you got the skills to pay the bills...take that puppy down to the open mic!

Thanks for introducing me to Raccoon. Great writing, interesting name... I'm sold on Racon.
And I think I would like to hear some tunes in Dutch. The site would be even more educational...cheaper then Rosetta Stone, language Learning software.

Thanks for another great post,

Cori

That video is my favorite video of yours, although that Brain Damage/Eclipse video is a close second. Beautifully done.

I feel slightly cheated - you promised me a busking racoon! Don't get me wrong, Vanessa - it's not that you did a bad job.......nice song, beautifully sung, expertly played........but a busking racoon. THAT would have been something.

Another great post, Vanessa. Thanks.

Stuart

Gosh, guys and gal.....I'm blushing again :blush: and yes smiling big time over here, you're all just too sweet!

Michele: .....Shel, you just leave me completely speechless..... :blush:......speechless.....so you think that it's okay enough??! :P

Scott: Thank you so very much, that's so sweet, just so great to hear that! I'm out of words at this point, am really happy that you've enjoyed it, really...thank you!

Rickspick: Thank you Rickspick, I appreciate it, thanks for watching and very glad you liked it!

Cori: Thank you very very much Cori, you leave me with no more words either...great to hear that you've liked this song! It's my favorite dutch band, a four man band, just guitar (a gréat mostly acoustic guitarist btw), drums, bass and a singer who plays the harmonica as well. Actually that was the only thing missing in here, the harmonica, the original contains besides that only the guitar. But would you actually like to hear a dutch song? I mean in dutch? The language must be awfull to you, haha! Although there are great bands and songwriters over here! Anyway, thanks again Cori for all your kind words!

Jay: Wauw! I really really appreciate that, thank you very much!

Stuart: Haha, I'm sorry Stuart, no busking Racoons over here, just me! But I'm glad you've enjoyed it anyway! ;)

Bill: A big thank you to you too! Just great to hear that you liked it, really, thanks for your sweet words!


Thank you very much all, a half hour after recording this one, I was still trembling of the nerves......all your comments has made it só worthwhile, I just love you all!

Cheers

Ness
