I Can See Clearly Now (Johnny Nash / Jimmy Cliff cover)

Uploaded by: GuitaristInProgress
Video Description:
I saw my friend Funcrunch perform this old Johnny Nash (or Jimmy Cliff, if you're inclined that way) song at a Blue Bear School of Music R
B workshop, and it inspired me to go home and learn it.
The next day I was sitting in my dark little cavelike room, not actually feeling depressed but pretending I was for the camera. Actually I was feeling pretty good. Tickled. Really. You can see Funcrunch's original performance of it in the "Video Responses" section, at http://www.youtube.com//watc

Hate to repeat myself but all the positive feedback is making my head spin. Thank you so much. Man, YouTube is incredible.

excellent! reminds me of one very early morning drive (12 years sgo?!)from Boston to CT after a wonderful visit with a friend I'd first met in Seattle, heard this song on the radio at sunrise that day. It reminds me of him to THIS day; (one of the many things I forget to tell him.) Don't stop playing- WHENEVER/always! xoxoxooxoxoxooxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Cheery songs suck! (sometimes) But you sound good! Good like: 'on-the-coast-of-Maine-with-good-old-friends-on-the-4th-of-July' -good; but still, sometimes good cheery songs, well, you know... Love you still.

I'm not sure which of your covers I like more:
This one, or 'Fire'? Bah...I'll just favourite both. Keep em coming! The syncopation is very groovy!

Hi Mike you have a technique to play that I like it, then sounds great music: (it would like to play what the' also to me) my compliments.Hi great!

Your voice and beat ... ( 7 months ago by quinoacat)

Your voice and beat are similar to Jimmy Cliff but this rendition is more syncopated and not as smooth. Don't get me wrong, I like your version of it. I am a Jimmy Cliff fan and totally dig his cover of the song. The BOY born as James Chambers had a tough time on his first 2 singles. His song Hurricane Hattie is one of my old favs. I still give you a 5/5 for Originality on this take.

That was great! ... ( 6 months ago by ginmillsinger)

That was great! I've given many 'cave' performances myself, and let me say, that was a 'Keeper'! It used to be, just me and God, but now, who knows.... Now, there's YouTube! HaHa:cD 5 Star performance/work-out!

Hey, thanks. Yeah, ... ( 6 months ago by GuitaristInProgress)

Hey, thanks. Yeah, all I can ever really do is my own take on things as well as I can, I don't really have the discipline to get down a faithful cover... my strengths
weaknesses are definitely my own.

Thanks, glad you ... ( 6 months ago by GuitaristInProgress)
