Topic: My First Duet with a Female Singer (Cameragirl803) - Already One

I recruited my YouTube friend Cameragirl803 (Jane) to do the harmony on the choruses with me.
This is a tender song about a relationship ending and there is a child involved.

The original is on the 1978 Neil Young album Comes A Time (a true classic) and the song was inspired by Neil's nasty break up with actress carrie Snodgress and they had a son together.
It's takes a mighty big heart to be able to look back on that and come up with a tender loving song like this:

Sounds great.  You have the Neil Young voice down pretty good.

I have finally found happiness in my life.  Guitars, singing, beer and camping.  And they all intertwine wonderfully.

Thanks! Jane really did a great job and I must say I am really surprised at the overwhelming response. This is not one of Neil Young's more well known songs and in fact isn't even listed here on Chordie!

Yet here is where it stands now. Unbelievable.

Kudos on a very nice job putting that together!  You two should do more like that, the harmonies are well fitted and deserve the accolades you have gathered.

Goodonya and Take Care;
