JPF Home Page Forums Lyric and MP3 Feedback Creative Challenge Forum "Champion" Thread - post your version here

Okay, I finally found the free moment to listen to all these great versions! So cool, I just love this place.

Calvin - Mellow as mellow can be mellow. Makes me wish we were all sitting by the midnight campfire, all the JPF folks who ever read this thread, all of us sitting around that campfire, and the iguana too, and all it carries...and this version would be just perfect to hear.

Ricki - You're like some sort of sorceress or something, because your voice always makes me feel happy, wistful and heartbroken all at once, just magic. Always really smart choices...you made it an entirely different song, but kept the simplicity. Didn't notice the length because the voice and crystal clear guitar pulled us right along. Nice!

Wendy - Oh I love this stuff, so European, so Tom Waits, makes me want to hear that French accordion sound weave through this one like a gypsy wind. Hey that was all poetic-like. See what you do to people? Holy smokes, how cool would it sound to have a Wendy-Ricki-Joice number ala Emmylou, Gillian and Allison? I'd fall down in bliss, no doubt about it, you all have such wonderful voices.

Big Jim - I caught the vibe right away, and I wanted to be wearing old Carnaby street 60's clothes, or at least some early 70's bellbottoms, and hoist a pint with sunglasses on! Yeah the end is so close to "You Are So Beautiful" you could almost riff right into it as a tag. When I was trying to figure out what to do I thought about opening and closing with the Beatles' "I Want You (She's So Heavy)" guitar stuff, just for a laugh. This is cool, kind of a 10cc thing too, in a different way. Great stuff from one of the real rock and rollers, Big Jim Merrilees. Man are we all blessed or what?

More! More!
