  1. Acrobat was savage I must say
  2. Sergio, i really liked Lemon, Acrobat, Staring At The Sun, Disccothèque... And more.
    BUT there really appeared a big smile on my face (from joy, not to mock you or anything!) when you counted down and did Like A Song Hands down for that one
    What i must say though is i'd like to hear 1 full song of you instead of a medley
    Anyway well done !
  3. Thank you aaall A full cover of Acrobat,Matt? I´ve sung it full a thousand times, I love to sing that song. I´ll record a full cover,thanks for the interest! And of course Like A Song was the last one for a reason
  4. Hey, here's two of my most recent piano keyboard covers - Ultraviolet and Sunday bloody sunday. Hope you like.





  5. That's absolutely beautiful well played, wish I could do that!
    My covers are way more basic but your videos gave me inspiration, gonna try to make a new cover and see if it works
  8. Originally posted by BelgianBono:I didn't knew it was based on a song called "The water is wide actually"

    And euhm... My ears did not bleed at all
    It's not because i want to be polite or anything, i really enjoyed that! Great smooth cover

    Aha, thankyou, glad to hear it

    I read an interview with Danny Lanois a while back, I'm pretty sure c. the NLOTH Promo campaign where he referred to it, although he called it 'The River is Wide' - I know it as 'The Water is Wide' from elsewhere. He was talking about how U2 had used the hymn 'Oh Come, Oh Come, Emmanuel' as the basis for White As Snow, and he commented that it wasn't the first time they'd used traditional music as a base for U2 songs, pointing to VDL/The Water is Wide as an example. I had thought there might have been some connection when I first learnt how to play both songs because they're extremely similar, and that interview confirmed it for me.

    EDIT - found the article in question;
