LivingWithMyMistakes

If anything but perfection is a mistake, I'd rather make mistakes than nothing at all.
This channel documents just a small selection of my 'mistakes', and I plan on making a whole lot more of them.

Peg Cover | Steely Dan Cover
Part Steely Dan, part Nerina Pallot, but mostly me. I couldn't resist throwing a couple of backing vocal layers over it because that was a whole lot of fun. Hope you enjoy it!
P.S. I don't own any rights to this song, go check out both the original and the Nerina Pallot cover, because both are great in completely different ways.

I Just Called To Say I Love You (Stevie Wonder) Cover
Просмотров 52314 часов назад
The true beauty of this song reveals itself when played on an acoustic instrument. I'll always love the original, but the cutting-edge-at-the-time production of this song obfuscates just how pretty the melody and sentiment are. But we all knew Stevie Wonder is indeed a true wonder, right? Anyway, everything that could have gone wrong with this one did. I mean, HOLY CLIPPING BATMAN towards the e...
The Albatross Acoustic Cover | Taylor Swift TTPD Ukulele Cover
Просмотров 85День назад
Due to recently attending a Xmas party from outside, this was almost I Look In People's Windows. Due to a recent performance at an open mic, this was almost How Did It End. Due to me waking up with THIS song firmly rooted in my head a few days ago, and it being one of my very favourites on TTPD (alongside Peter, which is just too emotional for me to sing, having lately laid down the weight of a...
New Generation (Suede) Acoustic Cover
Просмотров 8521 день назад
A delicate acoustic version of a Suede banger to see the new year in... because why not? I was reminded I had some chords kicking around for this song because I've recently been listening to Brett Anderson's book. It's clear that as he grew older, he grew as a person, which is no small feat. Throughout the book Brett acknowledges how differently he'd handle things now he's fully grown, how he s...
Late December | Original Song by FayMai
Просмотров 45Месяц назад
While the holidays are a time of joy and togetherness for many, litlle is said of the unwelcome grief they can bring. I wrote this song a few years back (can you tell I'd been listening to a LOT of Noah Kahan around that time?) and as a Christmas gift to myself this year I'm letting it exist somewhere other than my songbook and sofa. My darling, if the holidays bring pain: you're not failing, y...
Stumbleine (Explicit) Smashing Pumpkins Cover | Billy Corgan Acoustic Ukulele Cover
Просмотров 783 месяца назад
It's my birthday, and as a present to myself I'm putting my rendition of this sublime song into the world...with plenty of mistakes that almost made me scrap it, and my sweet orange cat lad making an absolute racket in the background. (If you look really carefully you can see a twinge of wild desperation in my eyes as I repeatedly spot him about to topple my camera tripod, or push my laptop off...
Beneath The Mask Acoustic Cover | Persona 5 OST Cover | Lyn Inaizumi Shoji Meguro Cover
Просмотров 1554 месяца назад
Seven years since Persona 5 graced my screen? It's time for my rendition of this beautiful song. The game was incredible, and the soundtrack's absolutely haunting, but I've always had a particular soft spot for this song. My cosplay may be a mashup of my faves, but...they stole my heart, what can I say? Hope you like it! . . P.S. I don't own any rights so this song, go check out the original, o...
Coming Round Again Cover | Carly Simon Acoustic Ukulele Cover
Просмотров 904 месяца назад
Couldn't resist putting a bunch of vocal layers over my one-take performance - it just felt right! I've loved this song since I was a kid (we had the single in our house, I think it might've been my Dad's...) and turns out it's not hard to play and a helluva lot of fun to perform. (Though Carly Simon fans will note I trimmed the outro, because that's just how I like to play it.) . . P.S. I don'...
Where Have All The Cowboys Gone? Acoustic Cover | Paula Cole Cover by FayMai
Просмотров 1395 месяцев назад
The quiet resentment in this song is so powerful. It had to be a one-take: just me and my ukulele. I've always wanted to be able to play this and recently figured some chords, with additional picking fill-in over the verses where the original has just a drum beat. Hope you like it! . . P.S. I don't own any rights to this, go check out Paula Cole's original!
You're Still The One Acoustic Cover by FayMai | Shania Twain | Ukulele Cover
Просмотров 1115 месяцев назад
Happy anniversary, my love. 27 years is a long time, but when you're in love with your best friend it feels like the blink of an eye. . . . . Seeing Shania singing again, after such a long road back, has been a real inspiration. This track is so beautiful in its simplicity, I knew I had to sing it, and what better time than the present?
Hold On Cover | Wilson Phillips Cover | Ukulele Cover
Просмотров 1315 месяцев назад
I unironically love this song, always have, always will. The album is great, and I've long imagined it's the kind of music that Sarah from Labyrinth would listen to in her room. (This and Debbie Gibson. Which is on the list to cover one day.) My harmonies are nowhere near as awesome as Wilson Phillipps (after all, I'm only one woman) but the song feels weird without them - so in some went. I ha...
Troppo Theme Acoustic Cover | Josh Pyke Cover
Просмотров 7 тыс.5 месяцев назад
Troppo is a slow-burn, Australian noir detective series with a ridiculously talented cast. I came for the easy charisma of Thomas Jane, but everyone in it is spectacular, and now I'd watch Nicole Chamoun in pretty much anything. It's really hard to find info about the theme tune on the net right now - lots of AI nonsense answers when you search - but these are the chords I worked out and I love...
I'm Going Slightly Mad Cover | Queen Cover | Acoustic Ukulele Cover by FayMai

I must have been slightly mad to choose this song (even trimmed and transposed, it's hard) and this take with its tiny imperfections, but I kind of love it all the same. Hope you like it.
Button Moon Theme Cover | Button Moon Intro and Outro
Просмотров 1886 месяцев назад
Short, sweet, and multilayered, this blast from the past was a lot of fun to cover. Even if there are a billion subtle variations on the intro theme in the show. I pared it down to something like I remembered :D I hope you like it!
No Mercy In July Cover | Grant Lee Phillips Acoustic Ukulele Cover
Просмотров 1266 месяцев назад
Since it's a heatwave here, a song about the mercury rising seems fitting! Transposed for my voice, this track comes from one of my favourite albums of recent months, which I've been listening to (from start to finish) a *lot*. Grant Lee Phillips is one of those artists that makes everything seem effortless, and writes such beautiful songs that just get stuck in my head. Go give The Narrows (De...

I just relax and enjoy everything from this channel. There is something about your singing, playing and personality that is authentic and endlessly watchable. I'm going to watch your Overkill cover again now and go to bed in peace. Thank you.
Thank you🧡And I'm going to go to an open mic with slightly less nerves than before due to your kind words. Sleep well.
@@livingwithmymistakes I hope it went well.
You're beautiful
Keep it up love from India 🇮🇳❤
Thank you! 🙏🏻
What a amazing voice ❤️
That's so kind! Thank you 🧡
Wonderful.
Thank you 🙏🏻
You have so much a lucid calming voice. I'm sure, Chris would really like this cover.
That's such a lovely thing to say. Thank you so much!
<3
🧡
What do I think? I think you can turn any song into something I can either listen to for pleasure or will lull me off to sleep when needed.
That's a win-win for everyone. Thanks for your kind words🙏🏻
This song sounds so great stripped back like this 💫
Love this! Your voice is unique!
Thank you so much!!
Ah, takes me back to my peak BritPop gigging days. Wonderfully done.
This made me smile big🧡 Thanks.
i dont know the original, but your rendition is beautiful in and by itself <3
So kind of you to say. Thanks much!
❤
🧡
You don't fail deliver a winner when I check out your channel. Happy New Year to you and yours.
Thank you🙏🏻And Happy New Year!
Tout ressemble à la musique que c’est comme Let it be des Beatles ! Et la panthère noire en peluche du soldat Rose ! Et la chanson de l’extraterrestre de Émilie Jolie ! Et Alouette Gentille Alouette ! Et Les Deux Guitares ! Et la chanson paillarde de David Bowie ! Et Les Comédiens de Charles Aznavour! Et la chanson des petits pois et carottes en hébreu du DVD de Matan Ariel! Et la chanson française qui s’appellera Malbrough ! Et Diam’s! Et Kirikou ! Et Uzi Hitman ! Et Joyeux Anniversaire ! Et Petit Papa Noël ! Et Twelve Days Of Christmas ! Et Minuit Chrétiens! Et White Christmas !
Voice back loud and clear! A lovely tune to ease me into the social madness of the festive season. Merry Christmas to you and yours also.
Lovely. Merry Christmas 🎁
Your covers have hit my "I just need to sleep now but I will listen to this one more time" sweet spot. And for someone who struggles with sleep this is no small thing.
An absolute honour. Thank you 🙏🏻
Wonderful. Queen official fan club member from 1989 and still have the jacket to prove it here :) Freddie would have liked this.
Thank you for your kind comments. Really appreciated 🙏🏻
Great cover, as ever.
Nicely done, artistic license is just allowing a bit of yourself into the cover.
Earworm tune that revisits me every once in a while. Very well covered. I will throw in Half Man, Half Biscuit's Dickie Davies Eyes for anyone that wants to expand their musical horizons. Radically ;)
Thanks for your kind words. We enjoy Joy Division Oven Gloves in this house 😀
Beautiful. Men At Work's finest IMO. Hope to catch Colin singing this live sometime soon.
Thank you. It's such a beautiful song, I hope you do!
Really good. I looked for the original for so long but... its nowhere
Thank you🙏🏻 It's really weird how the original doesn't seem to exist on the internet.
❤❤🎉
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Wonderful singing!
Beautiful 💙
Thank you so much 🙏🏻
You are singing very nicely。You can try the songs from The Witcher
🙏🏻🧡
i feel so lucky i found this tiny place! you definitely made my day a bit better- thank you.
What a lovely thing to say! You've done the same for me🧡
FayMaiかっこいい~!
🤭
Great work! 😁
Thank you! Cheers!
Me encantó tu interpretación😮 eres muy linda también
🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Holy-smoke, what an amazing video. 😊
Thank you! 🙏🏻
What they said....thanks. Also, I'm not too keen on figuring out the chords your playing...being a beginner. Could you post the chords, also?
WOW Great!
Thank you! 🙏🏻
I play uke with a group and enjoy on my own; I never would have considered this piece even possible on uke. You nailed it! Good singing and playing. Thanks for the inspiration!
Thank you kindly 🙏🏻
Beautiful Fay, lovely arrangement.
Vocal arrangements are next level ⬆️👑⬆️
Hey I'm the 100th view 😅 Let's collaborate some day 🎧🎼✨️
Just amazing, FayMai. Bravo!! Thank you for sharing this with us.
Thank you so much🙏🏻
One of my fave songs! Great cover!!!
<3
Sounds so good all arpeggio'd up like that. Another one for the 'my definitive version' pile 👑
<3
Immaculate 90s vibes ❤
Кто слушает в 2024 году этот кавер?🤩😍🥰
First it was Nilsson Schmilsson. And now Wilson Phillips. Surprised that you don't have people subscribing left and right 🎉. Because you sure are talented bigtime ❤.
That's really kind of you to say. Thank you so much🧡
@@livingwithmymistakes You are MODEST and downright BASHFUL, love!
Definitive Version Alert 🔔
Well done! I always wondered where I could find the original, because it is nowhere to be found.
Thanks, and likewise! I had to rewind an episode off the show over and over to figure out these chords🧡
@@livingwithmymistakesThat's some dedication 😁. Weird that there is nothing right? Every little series has a theme on RUclips or Spotify nowadays. I read that Pyke even got nominated for "best theme music" or something like that. How is that possible if you can't find it anywhere? It's too good to not be released as a song
I’ve” looked everywhere for this song. I started watching Troppo several DAZE ago,and have binged on season 1, now on 2, putting aside various duties 8I should be doing. GREAT SHOW! First episode I began looking up the theme and kept thinking I was doing something wrong as I couldn’t find it. Unbelievable!, Not familiar with either of the stars,( live in Seattle, Wa) but am really enjoying them , great chemistry. I thought the singer sort of sounded like Eddie from Pearl Jam… Never heard of Pyke but will look for more. 😊Thanks, all around. Is that the writer, singer ?
Thanks for your comment! Loved the show to bits, and the theme is so conspicuously absent from web searches I can only imagine it's some kind of contractual thing perhaps? It's weird though. I'm unsure on the answer to your question as I'm just going off the credit from the show that said Josh Pyke, but he's a musician so I'm guessing he's also our mystery singer. Sorry I can't be more help!
So good I had to listen thrice!
Please note thrice is only indicative of the first session of listening.
