Wayne's version of Marian is on youtube now.

That quitarist seems to play piano ?
Not a bad take, but i would like him to sing also the german lyric part of the song as well

I was hoping it would be better than this.
It's really quite bad. The piano sounds like an old cassette tape that's been stretched.

4:25 I'll never get back.

But it was much better when I turned the sound off and closed my eyes

This is a very better way to cover such songs, i like it better indeed

Nice version, although the piano sounds like recorded inside a toilet.

Another dialed in effort. Actually had high hopes that it would have actually been an inspired reworking.

In the last decade, that seems to mean Wayne alone with a midi piano.

I have heard worse like recently in Tilburg

Damn, i was expecting something better, that was cringe worthy.

Judging by comments on YT, it all comes down to who of this two guys you're listening more frequently.

A lot of Wayne's solo stuff (including his solo tours and his entire first album) is largely just piano and voice. A bit bland for me though.

Typically I find Wayne to be overwrought rather than bland. He's not going to sing "I hear you calling Marian" when "I heeeeuurrgghhh yuuurrhhh currrrhlluuuunnnrrgggghhh Mariaaaaannnn" would do the job just as well.

The constant comparison between the two performers is getting tiresome though. I did make an honest in-good-faith attempt to listen to this and judge it on it's own merits, and it just didn't do it for me.

Also bizarre is the adulation some people display towards anything and everything Wayne does. The guy could stand on a stage blowing his nose and stamping his feet in tune and some Wayne fans would declare it the greatest thing ever. Like I said, judged on it's own merits this is a weak cover for me.

Ι think it s more than fine, it s decent and honest and i realy like the piano-guitar-voice only take, nice atmosphere, thumbs up for me.
But i can understand it won't be everyone's cup of tea.

I was certain you 'll like it
I remembered the island (you know which i mean) in winter

Definately grows over a few listens.Worth buying a version.

Definitely not for me.

Yep! one for the winter, that's for sure

How do you tune feet?

Same way you tune a fish, I think.

Bad puns aside, this totally didn't do anything for me.

It didn't work for me.
