Your Song A cover of this Elton John Song Another new one to me , I just enjoyed playing and sing this oneArtyfax 00:04:23 127 0 Downloads 0 Comments -
Autumn Leaves - new cover A version of this classic melody song with just an acoustic ukulele for accompaniment, not a well polished attempt but rather to here what I could do with it after just a few minutes. Simply to find out what it sounded like and whether I should persevere to try to improve. This is a little different for me as it contains a melodic instrumental breakArtyfax 00:03:40 114 0 Downloads 0 Comments -

The nearness of you, cover Just been listening to Rod Stewart's American song-book album. Had to try this one, love the arrangementArtyfax 00:01:44 212 0 Downloads 0 Comments -
You Raise Me Up - cover Many people have recorded this song since first released by Secret Garden in 2002. The next year Josh Groban had a major hit with it and in 2007 Westlife took it to the top of the UK charts. Wiki states that more than 125 covers have been recorded - well make that 126! LOL I have taken more than one of the main recordings to arrange this. You will have to excuse the vocal as the song has a very wide range and after the second modulation it proves a little too high for me in parts. The intro is played on guitar with echo to hear how it sounded. Hope you like it anyway.Artyfax 00:04:57 214 0 Downloads 0 Comments -

The intro is a little stilted but I have not spent much time on it yet but wanted to hear how it sounded. Hope you like it anyway.Artyfax 00:04:56 184 0 Downloads 0 Comments -

A cover of an old classic, Autumn Leaves a simple vocal plus a ukulele backing. This track features a double-tracked instrumental part. My first attempt at doing this. And although I had many reservations about sharing the track, I thought for this success (???) only I would swallow my pride and post it hereArtyfax 00:03:23 296 0 Downloads 1 Comments - show more
