I usually have a really weak voice, but I've started to stay up really late to learn songs and practice singing. With that in mind, I am just hoping I did justice to this beautiful song.

Played it tuned down a full step with capo III. Can't do the vocals in the "correct" key. (:

This sounded really nice!

I enjoyed taking a listen!

Nice guitar work mate. And don't sweat on your vocals at least you were singing in key, they'll get stronger in no time as long as ya keep practicing.

Look forward to your next tune.

Sounds good PB, nice job on the acoustic. You've got quality in your voice. Just work on projecting a little bit, you'll sound awsome. I hear some uncertainty in your voice, but that comes from shyness. Conquer that and you're on your way. The more you sing, the better you'll get.
Keep up the good work and keep posting.

You have a very nice quality to your voice and I liked your guitar backing. You did great justice to this song. Very awesome.

Thanks for listening Lotness. I'm glad I was in key (or even mostly in key) because that's something I'm trying to pay close attention to as part of getting used to my voice. It annoys me when singers have a powerful voice which is used terribly. I heard on the radio at work someone singing something like "My Heart Will Go On" and doing this vocal solo thing completely out of key ... belting it out ...

I am looking forward to hearing my voice get stronger. This is actually the first time I have heard my singing voice (as opposed to the whispery nothingness I had before).

Thank you very much because I think your comment is spot on. I am definitely working on getting that strength in my voice. To start with my pitch was all over the place, and my voice was all whispery and generally uncontrollable - I think due to the whole shy thing.

Thank you DraegonT. (:

Nice to know the guitar part sounded ok, too, since this is a guitar forum and all.

Thanks for listening, ksdb.

it sounded more than ok. As said earlier your vocals will go stronger the more you sing, and hearing this, it is well in key. I guess you were holding back yourself, as there is a lot left in the tank i am guessing. Overall a very nice cover, liked it very much.

Great job and it sounds great even tuned down. You have a very listenable quality to your voice. You stayed in key and you ended up producing great results. Love the playing too btw. Sounds like a perfomance you would here in an intimate club setting.

**Sling Shot** · 06-23-2006, 12:46 PM

Don't worry your in key! I can't even sing at all. NICE!

**linda** · 06-23-2006, 04:01 PM

Georg Harison was way under rated but everyone probly knows that already Hahah but its always nice to here a great tribute to a vary gifted song wrighter nice job i really liked it.

I love The Beatles. All of them individually were so gifted. You did great Paper bag! It has that tender feel on the lyrics. Stay with it man!! Wanting to is the drive that makes it happen. I know someday I will be confident in my voice as well. Great job man!

**Avalon** · 06-26-2006, 10:34 AM

Im know this track pretty well (more from George Harrison) and you played it lovely

As said above your singing was in key and sounded very good, i think think you'll find even more from your voice as you gain condifence in your own ability, and i'll look forward to hearing more from you

UAx · 06-24-2006, 06:54 AM

Nice job. You really did a great job on guitar and it sounds like the extra time you've been spending on vocals is paying off.
