Video 75. Violet hill
Now for some cover versions. This one is quite a recent tune, and is called “Violet hill”. It’s taken from the latest Coldplay album entitled “Viva la vida”.
I had several Coldplay songs lined up to cover, and I chose this as the first of the batch. I really struggled with the falsetto in this one, so I had to take the music down a key. Even then I still struggled, but I just about managed it.
It’s been a bit noisy above my village this past weekend. I live quite near to a place called Goodwood. One of the annual events they hold is called “The festival of speed”. So whilst it was in progress, I took a few pictures of the aircraft from my rear garden. I’ve put those in the video. All I will say is that one aircraft in particular got extremely close, and it wasn’t the smallest flying object in the world!!!
Have a listen to my rendition of this great tune, and check out my photos:
The Youtube numbers are still rolling along like a steamroller.
I’ve now got 721 subscribers.
My channel viewings are now up to 16,254.
The overall video views are so close now. 249,532. Barring disasters, it will pass the quarter of a million tomorrow
It’s quite likely that my next song will be another Coldplay tune. I’ve got my eyes on an album track from a few years ago
