    I have listened to this song and version at least a hundred times over the past two weeks. I know I have driven my family crazy. Lol. I know this because they leave the room when I turn it on. Not because they dislike the song, just because I drove them crazy with it.
    Great song, great version, love it. And so does my family! EVERYONE have a WONDERFUL day! YOU are AWESOME!!!

    I love how throughout the whole song, George sings in a relatively normal range and only pull out the super high and impressive note at the end. It wouldn't have the same impact if he had shown his full vocal ability from the start! An amazing performance and arrangement as usual

    I'd talk about how great the arrangement and the musicians are, but that seems to have been covered already. Instead, I'll say that that C12A sounds really suited to George's voice. Great mic choice.

    @tinchocho8 2 роки тому +1

    Beautiful version and George Krikes is the perfect voice for this folk song.
    Still, I think that Stories series was more intimate and warm without the drums set (even being as subtle as this one was)... Maybe including a handful of percussion gadgets or a peruan shelf at the most.
    Just an opinion.

    "Everybody's Talkin'"
    Everybody's talking at me
    I don't hear a word they're saying
    Only the echoes of my mind
    People stopping, staring
    I don’t see their faces
    Only the shadows of their eyes
    I'm going where the sun keeps shining
    Through the pouring rain
    Going where the weather suits my clothes
    Banking off of the northeast winds
    Sailing on a summer breeze
    I’m skipping over the ocean like a stone
    Everybody’s talkin’ at me
    I don’t hear a word they’re sayin’
    Only the echoes of my mind
    Oh - hmmm - hmmmm - . . .
    I'm going where the sun keeps shining
    Through the pouring rain
    Going where the weather suits my clothes
    I’m banking off of the northeast winds
    Sailing on a summer breeze
    And skipping over the ocean like a stone
    I won't let you leave my love behind
    No, I won't let you lea-ea-ea-ve
    Ah-o-mmmmmm . . .

    Lovely, really. I only find the drums too much in front in the mix, especially the snare. I have an idea how to solve that, but mixing drum sounds is not my expertise at all, so I'll leave it at the complaint this time.

    Well played, but poorly conceived. Adds nothing to the original other than making it go on longer.
