Zachary Jones – I’m So Tired (Beatles cover)

I am so tired, but at least in a good physical way and not mentally. hehe. This week I’ve been recovering from all the seining we did earlier in the week with Betsy’s Dad. Yesterday I went to bed at 8pm and today at 7pm! We caught lots of shrimp and a tasty flounder during his visit, but I still haven’t quite recovered. Glad tomorrow is Friday.

Have a good weekend everyone!

btw, I love Betsy.

Zachary Jones – Sólo Tengo Ojos Para Ti (Juan Luis Guerra cover)

This one is a beautiful lullaby-esque love song written by Juan Luis Guerra, a wonderful Dominican composer and singer. Such a brilliant poet and guitarist.

Lyrics

    Sólo tengo ojos para ti
    no te das cuenta, no lo has notado
    Y te quiero más de lo que hoy puedo decir
    Sólo tengo ojos para ti

    Sólo busco el tiempo para ti
    vaya manía de estar a tu lado
    y lo eterno cabe, en tu minuto enamorado
    Sólo tengo ojos para ti

    Te veré como siempre en el rincón
    donde guardo el corazón y tan sólo vives tú
    y aunque el mar pierda una orilla
    y el comienzo su partida
    sólo tendré ojos para ti.

    Sólo tengo ojos para ti
    no te das cuenta, no lo has notado
    Y te quiero más de lo que hoy puedo decir
    Sólo tengo ojos para ti

    Te veré como siempre en el rincón
    donde guardo el corazón y tan sólo vives tú
    y aunque el mar pierda una orilla
    y el comienzo su partida
    sólo tendré ojos para ti.

    Sólo tengo ojos para ti
    Sólo tengo ojos para ti

Blood on the Tracks in its entirety…covered

Ok, here’s the massive Covertown idea I had: Cover one of my favorite albums, Blood on the Tracks, in its entirety in one sitting and record the whole thing. Here is the result.
