    This is very nice, but Roads really is a song that can never be topped. No version will ever have that genuine anguish, isolation and loneliness that Beth brought to it.

    Really nice. But I would have left the "Storm in the Morning light" unchanged, without changing the rythm or the emphasise on th notes. It is Perfect like it already is, when Beth performs it.

    Slow it down a little. Drop the beatbox. Otherwise excellent.

    ... Maybe you shouldn’t have a whole choir of voices sing, “I’ve got nobody on my side ...” It doesn’t quite capture the loneliness of that line.

      One interpretation is how you can still feel lonely, even surrounded by others.

  • @samueltrebbin
    @samueltrebbin Před 4 lety +2

    The cover is good but (i think)it is a disgrace to the original song. Mostly because of the "cool Beatbox Dude" . Covering that song a cappella is not the best choice, since that rhodes piano in the original (esp. in the beginning) is so defining.

    Who is here because 1) they mistakenly thought that this was Kate Bush and 2) they like this song because of the movie Tank Girl and its Soundtrack? If you are either of these things; THEN YOU ARE OLD JUST LIKE ME!!!!!
