Work was delayed today so I got in a recording before I left. I hope you like it.
February 22, 2023 at 9:31 pm #56411gi_gi_Participant@robinboyd Nice work. Itโs good to see your hand is recovering.
February 23, 2023 at 3:36 am #56421robinboydParticipantThanks @gi-gi. It wasn’t too bad this time. Only hurt for a few days.
February 23, 2023 at 11:24 am #56425The_Bumble_BardParticipant@robinboyd, that was so awesome! You sing with such feeling and have such a rich and unique voice–you captured the spirit of this song so beautifully. Thank you for sharing! And glad your poor hand is doing better. ๐
Side note, the slow version of this song pretty much always instantly makes me tear up so that may have happened. I’m ridiculous. ๐๐
February 24, 2023 at 6:50 pm #56446AndrewKeymaster@The_Bumble_Bard – I really like this version too! Robin, you did a great job! Perfect key for your voice too.
February 25, 2023 at 1:45 am #56448robinboydParticipantThanks guys
February 25, 2023 at 12:05 pm #56450The_Bumble_BardParticipant@Andrew, same! I love the original, and the music video for it, just a classic, and especially A-ha’s slower version, but I love a cover like this–so good. I have seen the faster version arranged for the uke, but not the slower one as much. Seems to be pretty popular right now with this cover from The Last of Us being out and all………… ๐๐
February 25, 2023 at 4:24 pm #56455surferjayParticipant@robinboyd Beautifully done sir! Well worth the wait and glad youโre healing up.
@tbb Morten Harket hasnโt aged, his voice is still solid and heโs still making the ladies cry ๐๐๐ Got to take youโre hat off to him heโs in his sixties now ๐ณ

February 26, 2023 at 3:18 am #56457robinboydParticipantI saw him on the Masked Singer UK a few years ago. He’s definitely still got it.
February 26, 2023 at 12:52 pm #56464The_Bumble_BardParticipant@surferjay, hmmm, not sure I care for that very much! I am a lady, but I’m not “the ladies.” Nope, I reject that! ๐๐
You not wrong though on one level. He’s just as good now as he was back then. I need to look that up, @robinboyd.
Have you ever sung “Stars” from Les Miserables, Robin? I feel like that would also suit your voice quite well. Literally taking requests now… ๐
February 26, 2023 at 4:45 pm #56467robinboydParticipantI haven’t. I might give it a go at some point.
March 1, 2023 at 6:51 pm #56520robinboydParticipantI totally should have just played this on the guitalele. The key would suit my voice better, too. I just didn’t think of it.
March 1, 2023 at 8:18 pm #56523The_Bumble_BardParticipant@robinboyd, that would be lovely if you gave “Stars” a go at some point!
I just see one problem with your take with the guitarlele: It’s only the chorus. ๐๐ …๐ญ
March 2, 2023 at 8:08 am #56531surferjayParticipant@robinboyd The Guitarlele sounds insane your really suits your voice also.. You captured the haunting feel of TLOU (in a good way). That was so awesome!
March 2, 2023 at 4:32 pm #56532robinboydParticipantThanks guys.
@surferjay – that guitalele was an absolute bargain. I got it second hand, and it had a few cracks in the wood, so it was only AU$100 or so for a solid acacia instrument with inlay and stuff. -
