try to do this without reading any of the information on the page: (the song title is there, but try not to look at it...)

click on this YouTube video:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kQMjX-TFAzg

good luck

OK - I didn't look at the title - I closed my eyes after I hit the link and just listened. Every time I thought I had it (from the tune) the lyrics would trip me up and I'd loose it. Finally I ran into the next room humming a familiar part over and over again and I got it!

I won't say what I think it is yet since no one else has tried it. That was really wild though!

And I have read the title now - and it was no giveaway either - not to me anyway!

Good thing the title was there, I would never have guessed it. Is he singing in German? It doesn't seem to follow any Prine tune melody I'm familiar with.

Where do you get this stuff, EDK?

Ahh...on the right hand side of the screen it had the title in English - I didn't notice that initially - I was reading the title above the video. I guessed it right though!

not in German - I think it's in Dutch

search on YouTube for something - let's say....um how about "John Prine" , for example. Once a bunch of videos come up you can sort then - I like do sort by most recent. Or under "Uploaded" you could choose -this week or this month. I like to see the covers that perople are doing. It's amazing some of the talent level that posts (both ends of the spectrum).

One of the best on YouTube is a guy named "Fretkillr" - lots of online guitar forums debate his real identity....
check him out-

Tomorrow I'm going to see if anyone posts a You Tube from the show tonight.

Well, I thought I knew it and looked to the side. Wrong! But, it really is that song.

I'm all for "making a song your own" - but this guy makes this song something completely different!
