A cover of the title song from Gordon Lightfoot’s 1982 album “Shadows”. He wrote this song on one of his canoe trips in Canada’s north: you can hear the imagery in the lyrics. https://youtu.be/LHD8Gu2Tasg

Hey guys!! My new song comes out this friday and i would love if all of could pre save and share: https://ffm.to/alessandromontelli Thank u 💜🙏🏻

https://youtu.be/BUz6rYoPsXI

John Lennon and Paul McCartney wrote this song, although it has been credited to "Billy Shears" - Ringo Starr's alter ego on the Sgt. Pepper album. Ringo sang it on the album, and has been singing it ever since! I decided to give it another feel by slowing it down a little, almost a James Taylor vibe, who did perform it at the BBC in 1970. Later on, John admitted this song was "Paul with a little help from me". The original title was "Badfinger Boogie", which later became the inspiration for the band Badfinger! Here is "With a Little Help From My Friends". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XBpMnzpYp9A&feature=share&fbclid=IwAR1HA3CqajlwkzzXNnEWF1zyd4zzoy9TEaP3hBlb8FYEKKqvOeZPe67x3Lg&ab_channel=BryanCharendoffMusic

A bossa nova tune called Encontros e Despedidas by Milton Nascimento. The lyrics are about the coming and going of the train station that is life :)

My original tune 🤘🏼🕺🏻 https://youtu.be/i2SfkxgSFyg

https://youtu.be/Dty-hVvjc3A

"Exitus Grassor Progressus" (Going, Going, Gone) an original tune from "Gregory Swain" (treelinetheband.com)

I’ve always loved this song so much and it makes me think of my childhood, especially my good friend Ang (we were both big fans and both became musicians) he always reminded me so much of Paul Stanley, I mean that as a sincere compliment. Kiss were always much more than a band they were spectacular super heroes of rock. https://youtu.be/gtfttFNWWN4

Hi again everyone! Can't wait to listen through everyone's videos! This is an original song called "End of Time". A happy/sad song I wrote about my parents and their journey. You can also find the full band version on Spotify! Hope you enjoy. 😊

This was the first the Platters' song I ever heard, got hooked on the hook! Here is my cover of "Only You".

When "they" say "its not played that way" this community says "AND?" You all embody kindness and talent and creative souls! I am proud to be part of it! Take some time to watch everyone's video and share! (I know most of you do 💓) yropenmic.com "Bring Me To Life" by Evanescence

Hello. This is my guitar and vocal cover of About Us by Neverest. A Punk-Rock band from Toronto, Ontario in 2007-2014

I just released my latest video yesterday! So Deep by Tikka & The Trove https://youtu.be/_ut0_80oDJM

Here’s a fun one...Composed in 1960 by Jimmy Jones, made popular by James Taylor...Handyman.

Hello from Vancouver Island ! I co-write and produce with a talented bunch of folks out here. I'd love to share this video we did for a song I co-wrote and produced with a wonderful songwriter Abby Grace. Enjoy ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTsa_ws5DbE

Original- https://soundcloud.com/claymanofficial/hysteria

Here is my 'feel good' song, COBOCONK! Come on along and sing along.https://youtu.be/lu3lw_6PAg8

Saw these guys at G Rosslord park early 90s. Great show. Might have posted this song before but this is the latest. Changed key, more attention to dynamics etc. https://youtu.be/qHTANWKbmnQ

Here's an original, "What is love?" It is my first venture into arpeggio on the keyboard. Hope you enjoy this. https://youtu.be/dEraXzTg8M4

Hi everybody! Owen here. Here's a great America (The Band) song called, "Tin Man". https://www.facebook.com/844539042384362/videos/454688072640664/

Amazing talent here. I have been following this group for a while trying to get courage. Here goes...Black by Pearl Jam

Two Cover Songs about being a carefree hobo. Gentle On My Mind - John Hartford - 1967 King of the Road - Roger Miller - 1964 -------------------------------- Gentle On My Mind - John Hartford Made famous by Glenn Campbell, this song has always been important to me because it taught me how to use variations of the same chord to good effect. Good finger warm-up song for when my hand's aching. -------------------------------- King of the Road - Roger Miller - 1964 A very fun and easy song to play. Almost goofy in it's carefree style. Good busking song too. I love the cool snapping finger pops in the original recording. 16 Tons has finger snaps too. Kinda jazzy .

Yesterday was Dolly Parton’s 75th birthday. Special guest vocalist on this one!

I do play other stringed instruments and am focussed on the ukulele these days, as I Zoom "jam" with my ukulele buddies. The ukulele seems to beg uplifting tunes and here is "Raindrops Keep Falling On My Head". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_rUDhzYashw

I was given a challenge of taking a song that I didn’t like and trying to “fix it”. My apologies if anyone loves this song (it did go to #1 in Canada in 1978 and reached #3 on Billboard’s Hot 100 in the US) but it was never my cup of tea. My idea of trying to fix it (for me) was to play it faster (so I’d finish it sooner) and to try to make it more snappy, less sappy. 😉 With sincerest apologies to Dan Hill, here is my “for fun” rendition of his biggest hit, “Sometimes When We Touch”.

Happy Sunday everyone. Here is a morose 90s song from Soul Asylum. Hope you enjoy.

Nicely done Lamont

https://youtu.be/QPbOz44cPjM. Rock Flute Instrumental Locomotive Breathe Jethro Tull covered by Shari Tallon

Two Cover Song - Two Monkees Songs (I'm Not your) Stepping Stone -Boyce-Hart- 1966 Valleri - Boyce-Hart - 1968 --------------------------------------- These are songs that I've been singing since I was a pre-teen. The fun thing that links them in my mind is their chord structure. With Steppin' Stone, you just slide up With Valleri, you just slide down. ( or at least I do it that way ) This video is especially funny to watch in high speed. Also, Monkees and Beatles songs are a busker's bread and butter. Enjoy !

Chinese song: We are all different. But we work so hard to build our fruitful tomorrow and support our community. We have to cherish this moment and love.

My Russian translation of "Stripped" by DepecheMode. Warning 😉 - heavy metal version. https://youtu.be/WD2s5QbeEu4

here's my cover of Ian Tyson's Someday Soon .. miss the west some days .. particularly the region where Tyson has his ranch ✌

I’m an emerging artist and this is my very first live stream. I’m trying to bring mental health to the forefront of the public. I’ve written a song about my journey and recording a debut album. I’d appreciate any feedback please. https://www.facebook.com/lisa.vivian.98/videos/10157213154791607/

Hi everybody! Owen here. Today, I would like to do a song called, "Sip & Salsa" by Canadian award winning smooth jazz guitarist, Rob Tardik. https://www.facebook.com/844539042384362/posts/1739348406236750/ Stay tuned for some more music from me on Wednesday!

Just a little something we've been working on, virtually of course! https://www.facebook.com/dono69/videos/10164876931295145/

Hi! Here is a million dreams! Hope you enjoy 🙂

Here’s a Drifters song written by Carole King...Up On The Roif

Im going for a cover of one of my favourites Neil Young Powderfinger, I used the electric chords to the song because well the acoustic version just looked too complicated! Hope you enjoy the masterful song writing of the legend himself, tons of meaning to his words in this one, and thanks as always for the support and kind words!!

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YgSidNCzlCw

Only Elton John could write a happy upbeat melody to the song Sad Songs Say So much!

This community has once again wowed me with it's Creative and Talented members! Trying our best to keep up our craft and our spirits may be a bit difficult, but if you just spend some time and watch all the videos from today I think you will agree we are doing something right! yropenmic.com "The Horses" by Rickie Lee Jones

Thanks Steffi for offering us the great opportunity to show our passion for music here. Too bad we can’t get together physically to play music due to the Covid. I would like to post an “old song” that was re arranged a couple years ago, Hotel California. Next time I will post a more recent song:

https://www.facebook.com/joe.pipino.9/videos/2756005717945356

A delightful cover of Mr Sandman by Donavon LeNabat and MeL Cote and other talented friends

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMnsYYPeiVU

Here's an instrumental version of "Arlo". Hope you enjoy my Arlo https://youtu.be/0TSfgr4eKco

I probably first heard “Boppin’ the Blues” by Robert Gordon (and Link Wray!), Stray Cats, or maybe the Kingbees during the rockabilly scare of the early 1980s, but the original was by Carl Perkins. Perkins was one of the early recording artists at Sun Records in Memphis, recording there around the same time as the earliest recordings by Elvis and Johnny Cash. I pre-recorded the percussion track into a looper using brushes and a cardboard box.

Happy Sunday, here is a group collab from some friends and I, thanks for watching!
