I probably spend far too much time watching music on RUclips, but every so often you find an absolute diamond. I agree with the other comments - the best cover of this fantastic song - and I've seen a lot! Brilliant arrangement, playing and singing. So pleased that I found this - it merits a million views. Thankyou Martin.
Wow, just wow... I truly appreciate your super-kind words, Pistol. Thanks for taking the time to listen, and to comment. And thank you so much for subscribing! Plenty more music soon! (like when my kid heads back to school and I've more time to do some strumming!)
Wonderful. Thank you. I love this song, as so many folk do. This is a lovely version with much passion. I really love the fact that there are so many of us who play and sing in our kitchens, all over the world. Its a funny thing, but they are great spaces to play and entertain. Kitchen musicians of the world, unite!!
@@littlemartincito I have just come home from a late screening of the movie, The Hold Overs ( fabulous film!!!) and poured a whisky and watched and listened to this again.....still brilliant and it just dawned on me, how much like my cousin you are!! He is also a great musician and sings and plays in many places in the North of England. The end to a perfect night. Thanks again.
This is the best version ever done. A moment of musical bliss. perfection. Only a man in love could do this. I've sent this on to the lads to give their verdict.
Wow, Steve, thank you so much! It's a very special composition, and I get a lot of joy from playing it. I hope you'll consider subscribing as I've other songs up there with more to come.
Mille grazie!!! I'm sorry that I don't know more Italiano, but thank you for watching. Hope you will subscribe, more music soon! (Spero che ti iscriverai, presto altra musica!)
This is so great 3 years after first hearing it. Gets better with each listen! Great tone, voice superb, interesting tuning and great song and such a good cover. Well done again!
I went through a lot of covers to find this one. Always loved this song, but I was looking for an upbeat acoustic version, and your chord voicings are simply wonderful ! And great emotion in the vocals, too ! Much thx ! (and best to you and your bride ;-) )
Wow, thank you so much, Paul! Thank you so much for having a listen, and I hope you'll consider subscribing. I've other songs up there with more to come.
Holy shit Martin! That was fantastic! I've listened to that song hundreds of times, some times over and over on repeat and your cover gives the original a run for its money. I hav'nt even looked at the rest of your videos yet and Im instantly subscribing. Much love from across the pond in Ireland brother!
Thank you so much!!! It's a song that means the world to me for a bunch of reasons, and it's wonderful to know that you enjoy my version of it. It's a magnificent composition and a gorgeous sentiment... love right back at you from NYC! Played some shows at the Roisin Dubh and Tigh Neachtain's in Galway some years back, I miss that town very very much.
Listened to this song for the first time today. Second time listening is your version, Martin. I am unsure as to what but there is something in my life that this song perfectly describes, and watching you perform it with such passion and perfection has only made me more sure of this. I will remember the moment I first watched you play this for a very long time as well as how it made me feel about my life so already full of loss at only 19. I feel this song and video describe a part of all this so well that it has been put to bed. Much love and thank you.
Thank you for listening, Ben... all I can say is live your life in tribute to those you've lost. Grief is love with nowhere to go; manifest that love in how you live, and your loved ones that you miss will always be along with you for the ride. And yes, what a song gifted to us by Mike Scott and The Waterboys.
Me encanta como la cantas y lo bien que la tocas en guitarra...mi sincera enhorabuena 👏 eres un crak...voy a imitarte en esos acordes que suenan tan maravillosos.
I am so late, beautiful arrangement and delivery. I would love to play your arrangement myself. Would you consider sharing your tabs? I wanna sit in the wild and play it to the mountains❤🔥
wow you haven't posted in 2 years but i thought it was worth commenting, Im 17 and this is still so cool to me I hope I can serve the song as much justice as you have. ❤
That was terrific! Nice finger note flourishes with the guitar near the end of the song and I appreciate and love how you held that last guitar chord as it resonated into silence. Great vocals too!
I don't think I'll be able to, Marco, but I wrote a couple of the chords into an earlier reply, the first couple of chords are X07600 X06400 if that helps as a jumping-off point. Have fun!
Please add me to the list of admirers.....this was the favourite song (for over 20 years) of a dear cousin of mine who died last year......I have been looking for a good version to play...thank you
Thanks so much! I wish I was skilled enough to share the names of the chords, I just find them and run. I know I'm doing it in A and switching to B. Lots of open strings is the key, so it feels full. I hope you'll consider subscribing!
Thank you so much! Standard tuning, just using a lot of open string chord voicings to let it sing. I might be a 1/2 step down as I do that sometimes when my voice needs me to go easy on it. I hope you'll consider subscribing as I've other songs up there with more to come.
It's standard tuning, Paddy, in A, I like to use simple fingerings and a lot of open strings to help everything ring a bit... never understood tablature but took a look in the hope of explaining these chords to you and others who have asked.....from a tablature perspective, try: X07600 / X06400 / XX0770 / XX0990 as a jumping off point and find your way through! Happy holidays.

Those pots and pans love a good song! Seriously, a kitchen is such a creative space. Thank you for listening, Lawrence.

Please add me to the list of admirers.....this was the favourite song (for over 20 years) of a dear cousin of mine who died last year......I have been looking for a good version to play...thank you

Very nice m8. Please make it into a tutorial, I’d love to learn your version👍🏻
Thank you! If only I knew what I was doing well enough to make a tutorial...... :D
What are the chords, that you are playing? Love your version, exceptional!!!❤
I wish I knew! It's mostly over an open A string. Just kinda found the note combinations that worked. Thanks for listening!
Chords please!? I need to learn this version..it’s amazing mate 🤩👍
Thanks so much! I wish I was skilled enough to share the names of the chords, I just find them and run. I know I'm doing it in A and switching to B. Lots of open strings is the key, so it feels full. I hope you'll consider subscribing!
Very nice! Do you have tabs?
Thanks for listening! No tabs unfortunately, not skilled in that respect. It's in A though, with lots of open strings.
Blissful, thanks Martin 🙏 alternate tuning ?
Thank you so much! Standard tuning, just using a lot of open string chord voicings to let it sing. I might be a 1/2 step down as I do that sometimes when my voice needs me to go easy on it. I hope you'll consider subscribing as I've other songs up there with more to come.
Nice 👌
Thanks so much, other Eric Clapton!
Jubbly!
Why thank you so much... more music soon, hope you'll subscribe!
Awesome - the Waterboys would definitely agree - would love to get your chord fingering - are you using open tuning?:
It's standard tuning, Paddy, in A, I like to use simple fingerings and a lot of open strings to help everything ring a bit... never understood tablature but took a look in the hope of explaining these chords to you and others who have asked.....from a tablature perspective, try: X07600 / X06400 / XX0770 / XX0990 as a jumping off point and find your way through! Happy holidays.
This is amazing, well played mate… what’s the chords?
Very good job any chance of the chords 👍
thanks! I'm not well-versed with how to write down chords but I hope this helps as a jumping-off point: X07600 X06400 XX0230 XX0450 XX0770 0X7700
Great job 👏
