Your Mother Should Know (Beatles)

I've got some stereo effects in this one, so best heard with headphones. Hope you like it!

Nice job. Funny that the other day I was just thinking that this would be a good one to cover. I always love your song choices and performance. Keep them coming!

Thanks, EDW! If you're stuck at home with shut down orders, it's a good time to work on covers!

John, I've really become a fan of your videos, but this one takes it up a notch. This is a fantastic cover of a Beatles song. Well done.

Bill

Great job. It is always exciting when you do those harmony vocals.

Thanks, Bill! I really appreciate it! One of my YouTube friends told me that if you double your vocals, you make it sound more Beatle-ish, and I think it's true. If I could re-do the audio, I would probably make the second vocal track a little more subtle. But I've always enjoyed the post-production aspect of making ukulele videos and seeing if I could make the audio sound more interesting.

Thanks, Demetrius! I really like adding harmony and other backing tracks to the audio when I can!

Listening to your song lifts my mood.

Thanks, Joseph! I'm glad to hear that! I really appreciate it! Have a great weekend!

Bravo! Is it artificial doubletracking or did you record the vocal twice?

Thanks, Finn! I recorded the lead vocals twice. I usually like to add reverb, too, but not too much!

Really nicely done John. Thanx 4 sharing.
Happy Easter.

Thanks, luv2uke! Happy Easter to you and yours!
