Hey Frank, Doubt you'll ever read this, but I just wanted to say thank you. My grandfather used to sing just like you, and its so beautiful to feel like he is still here. Please never stop. Here's to you, Grandpa. I miss you every day. - Chris
Frank...you are a gift to humanity! I can hear the pain in your voice. I think we can all relate to that hurt, to that sorrow. Man! Life is hard. I want to give y'all a hug. We got this and Frank is helping us.
I was going to say it, but you said it better, already. I'm an older gentleman and it makes more sense coming from him than Stevie. Kinda a Bob Dylan vibe.
Frank with tears in my eyes. Your version. You and that guitar when its my time sir. I want your voice to sail my castaway boat. Frank never stop please. You make me miss my grandmother so much. Just felt like I needed to say this to you. Thank you.
Dear Frank, Recently been dealing with debilitating anxiety and it's been changing my whole life. Everything seems slower, and it's frustrating, but I'm finding a lot of beauty in the things that used to move too fast for me to notice. I've heard this song for years, but never had it slow down enough where I really listened to the lyrics. The pace and the lyrics, and the understanding in your voice really connected. I've been afraid of changing, recently, but this song gives me peace. Thank you for your lovely music, and for touching so many people.
@@phillyblunt138 Hi Jamie, I'm still not a hundred percent, but I'm getting there. I quit drinking over three months ago and I've been running four miles every day. I've also been recording demos for an album that I've finally finished writing after two years of stops and starts. Here's to a healthy and creative 2021 for all of us!
@@dylanharkin8198 glad to hear my Friend. 2020 has been a b*tch. I am in the middle of a Crohns flare which hasnt made things any easier. Hang in there. Be safe and well.
My mum played this song at my nan's funeral and now Its my first month of university I cant't stop listening to your cover and thinking about my mum, so thank you
Your phrasing for each cover you do is so articulate, and it shows you know exactly what the song calls for. You apply the right amount of emotion, and know when to pull it back or lean to it, and THAT is what you call a powerful storyteller
This is what music is all about folks. Feeling the melody in the guitar and putting your heart into the words. ❤ thanks Frank 😊you give me hope that more will put down the phones and pick up an instrument. It’s work, but tis rewarding-to self- and a small gift to others.
For all of us getting older & having less time ahead than behind his feelings resonate as our anthem. He’s covered Stevie Nicks’ lyrics beautifully but her words bring us to tears; it’s the cycle of a life.
i come back to this video all the time, it is one of my dad's favorite songs and he used to always play it for me when i was young. I am now growing up, and ill admit that i am also afraid of change because i almost built my life in an image of him. This song reminds me to move on but to never forget where i came from. Thank you frank.
Hey Frank I'm going though a rough time and I've noticed you've covered loads of my old favourites and I just wanted to say thanks peace and respect ✌️
Frank ... This is beautiful. Another senior friend sent me this. I'm 71. I enjoy many of the young UA-cam musicians but it sure is nice to discover you. You have a sweet voice and beautiful talent.
I have never get a chance to really get to know my grandfathers. One passed away before i was born; the other one left before i learn to appreciate. I’m sure theyre in better bright places now, but I still miss them. Thank you for reminding me those simple lovely moments.
@@Durwo0d If your parents really hate you, should def visit my chan friend, well even if they don't I've got a few covers over here you might chuckle about!
@@Durwo0d That's awesome Darwin! Thanks and hope you like a few videos, I've tried to mix it up with some different stuff so maybe there will be something to enjoy for ya. Take good care friend!
Frank, your channel is now my new background music at work. Thank you for sharing your beautiful interpretations of these songs and keeping my stress level down!!
I am so glad that I have found your channel. Your voice and the way that you play guitar, well I have no words. You touch my heart and I’m so grateful to be able to listen. Thank you for sharing your gift.
Loved it Frank….you just have a way with melody..💕 the other day I saw that you had put up the Blaze Foley tune I sing and I didn’t get to watch it. I hope I get to see that again… I can just imagine how wonderful it is…..I’ll keep looking ☮️
Wow, Just wow. Frank that was beautifully done. There is so much heart and life lived in your rendition. Thank you so much. I play a little myself, and am now motivated to cover your cover.
Fleetwood Mac is my favorite band. And so I’ve heard this song many times. Yet this is the first time its made me cry. I think I heard the lyrics in a different way. Thank you for that
This has been one of my favorite songs since I was a kid. I loved your version of it, love your voice! It makes it more emotional. Thank you for sharing!
I can tell, you simply love to play music, just to play. That is really special, and you can really hear it, in the way you play and sing. It is really touching, thank you for sharing!
I am in tears. Fleetwood Mac was a band that my dad got me into at an early age. He passed away a year ago and this just made me think of him so much. You have a way of making a song I have heard a thousand times feel like it's the first time I'm hearing it. It was really a beautiful cover and it was really nice to feel so close to my dad this morning. Thank you.
This is my favorite song to ever exist. Every time I hear this song, it reminds me of all the loves ones I’ve lost. My brother when I was 9, dad at 15, grandparents at 16 & 17. I interpret the lyrics to them saying “When life knocks you down, get up and smile. We’re always with you and we’ll always love you”. Thank you for this video Frank.
You moved me to tears with your song covers. Not in a bad way at all it's just very beautiful. Especially when you covered Comfortably Numb. My favorite song.
You should be a recording artist, Frank ! Love the way you take all this wonderful songs down to another more mellow level. If you made an album of your best covers - I would be first in line to have one - or two !
Dear Frank, I came across this cover in my recommended, and I’mnglad I clicked on it. Landslide has been one of my favourite songs that mean the most to me. Thank you for the beautiful rendition of this song.
Hey Frank,
Doubt you'll ever read this, but I just wanted to say thank you. My grandfather used to sing just like you, and its so beautiful to feel like he is still here. Please never stop.
Here's to you, Grandpa.
I miss you every day.
- Chris
I read it.
One of the best covers I could find of this song
Thank you.
Agree!
@Moose Bob Thanks ,i can't copy exactly ,lack of skill so i adapt .
Bravo 👏
It is great! Give a look at Bush's rooftop Landslide. It's also a great cover for anyone who appreciates this song.
Frank...you are a gift to humanity! I can hear the pain in your voice. I think we can all relate to that hurt, to that sorrow. Man! Life is hard. I want to give y'all a hug. We got this and Frank is helping us.
I think that a gentleman of this age performing this song really makes the lyrics hit home a lot harder.
Eloquently put and I agree.
something about an old man singing this song.....hits you harder
i am 58 years old and my 30 year old marriage is hanging on by threads and i just keep playing this song over and over ......hits me really hard
I was going to say it, but you said it better, already. I'm an older gentleman and it makes more sense coming from him than Stevie. Kinda a Bob Dylan vibe.
this cover makes me feel mortal
@@aricaiwdjts is it better now?
@@leo7beats59 Yes ..sort of....i take it one day at a time ...
An actual person who was there when it came out, saw it's impact, and I'm happy he learned a song he loved and felt deeply about!
Frank with tears in my eyes. Your version. You and that guitar when its my time sir. I want your voice to sail my castaway boat. Frank never stop please. You make me miss my grandmother so much. Just felt like I needed to say this to you. Thank you.
Thank you ,sorry about your grandmother but it happens to us all eventually ,it's not easy.

Wonderful cover. There's a weary sweetness to your voice I absolutely love. :)
Thank you ,i think it may be an age thing lol.
Thank you, mate. I have been feeling hopeless for weeks and this makes me feel better.
Thanks hang on in there.
How you been keeping Dylan?

Frank the melancholy and nostalgia you portray are like a soft blanket. Thanks for the memory. God bless you.
My pleasure!
"Oh mirror in the sky, what is love? Can the child in my heart, rise about?" I love that lyric!
The people disliking this need counseling. Yesterday.
They just don’t appreciate deep connection upon the heart & music.
THANK YOU HONESTLY HE DID AMAZING
I listen to videos like this while I work and the phone bounces around my pocket. My guess is most thumbs down are by accident.
Arbane's Sword thank god spring is on it’s way. Here comes the sun.
Nahh, i think they are too far gone for that . Put them in an island in the pacific without water instead

Goosebumps and tears...
Heart-felt emotion. Sad. Introspective. A recent loss. Therapeutic. Thank you.
Thank you
You did Stevie proud... making a classic into a new classic.

Campbell you have given such a beautiful tribute. God bless you and keep you.
What an amazing ability to strip a song down & get the purest results.
I love singing along with you Frank. This song means a lot to me and you did it beautifully.
Hey Frank I'm going though a rough time and I've noticed you've covered loads of my old favourites and I just wanted to say thanks peace and respect ✌️
