Benny,

Your covers are always welcome, and as my forum name suggests, FBR is my (and my wife's) favorite LC song, so this one is a real treat! I would be interested in hearing your version of FBR at a SLIGHTLY faster pace. Unlike many (most?) popular artists, Leonard is known for carefully enunciating his words (maybe a carryover from reading poetry outloud). You also take pains to enunciate. As for the Floydian ending--I liked it, it reminded me to make a point to re-view their excellent "Pulse" DVD when I have an opportunity.

As we age we think more about what we've accomplished in life and what we have not. My biggest disappointment is that I never trained in music and cannot sing and play a musical instrument, that is, "make music." Keep using your gift.
