    this is one of my favorite songs and i was a little reluctant to listen because i love the original and in my mind jeff buckley's version is perfection. i just didn't think i'd be able to give you a fair listen....but.......

    that being said, i really love your voice!!! you have such a warm, rich tone that really got to me. thanks for posting the link and hopefully you'll post others in the future. :)

    thanks Coleen :D

    hehe
    yeah i kind of figured ppl might be a bit put off by another version of Hallelujah so i was a bit nervous to post it
    but thanks so much for listening to it :)

    heheh Justam :)

    i was just afraid that i wouldn't be able to give it an objective listen no matter how good it was....but i've listened to it quite a few times now. :) really, you have such a warm and lovely voice.

    please keep us in mind when you record in the future. :)

    allison, i've always loved your voice
    ever since i d/l'd indifference off that pj-fans-do-covers site that greg used to run...
    thanks for putting up the link
    i've had "Grace" in the player for a few days now
    and i've done a few rewinds on coehn's masterpiece
    the lyrics are incredibly deep and sad
    i like how you say

    "IT IS A BROKEN..."

    it's a nice phrasing of that line...


    the line i'm picking at now is

    "all i ever learned from love is how to shoot somebody who outdrew you"....




    so, anyway... definitely pop by and let us know when you u/l, k?

    thanks so much for sharing it with us :)
    ~all is full of love~

    the lyrics just flow so nicely.. they even feel good to sing, if that makes sense
    not sure if it does

    and i'll definitly let you know as soon as i u/l another song :)

    thanks so much again!!

    hey!!!

    thanks everybody for listening!! :D yay

    the kind of stuff i usually do, my original stuff, is kind of hard to explain.. lol
    its sort of like...... piano/vocal based stuff.. like tori amos or fiona apple or something..... but i am a big Pearl Jam fan so there's sort of a bigger rock influence in there.... and there's also a bit of folk in there sometimes which is sort of influenced by ani difranco.... i also love counting crows... and jazz.... and classical....

    it's kind of random lol :)

    our instrumentation is bass, drums, piano/vocals'

    i'll make sure to post more stuff soon and i'll let you know :D

    thanks so much!!!

    (btw, right on for writing a book!! i wish i could do that.. i don't have the attention span.. lol thats great!! Leonard Cohen is a great writer to quote :) )
