Hey a bit modified version.. I would like to dedicate this version to my long lost daughter.

Hope the good people of Louisiana can forgive me :-)

The other night, dear,
As I lay sleeping
I dreamed I held you in my arms.
When I awoke, dear,
I was mistaken
And I hung my head and cried
You are my sunshine,
My only sunshine.
You make me happy
When skies are Grey.
You'll never know, dear,
How much I love you.
Please don't take my sunshine away
I'll always love you
And make you happy
If you will only say the same
But if you leave me
To love another
You'll regret it all some day
You told me once, dear
You really loved me
And no one else could come between
But now you've left me
And love another
You have shattered all my dreams;
You are my sunshine... now you will no.....no one can take my love away.

This is a very good example of how to manage a lala song into something good.
G chords on guitar sound always good.
I've waited for some drums at 1:45 and perhaps some strings. Flat solo at 3:15, better sound with pedal steel guitar.
Great vocals!!!

Hey there ! thanks for the comment, well i've just moved and havent got my keyboard and bass yet, but feel free to put a drumlayer maby some keyboard.. could be nice to hear, I agree on the solo it jus'nt have that punch!

Nice song. Good to see some traditional music on Bandamp. You've got a nice version here, it keeps what could otherwise be a dull song interesting. A few hiccups here and there, the solo comes in a bit off time, and there's one little error at the end of the first chorus, but all in all quite good. I agree with triton, the solo cold use some work, but it's not very long anyways. I'm imagining this with some harmony, maybe a little backup oohs at the chorus just to reinforce the chords and give the chorus a little more umph. The Blind Boys of Alabama do a version of I Shall Not Walk Alone which I think has a similar feel to what you're going for. Still good work, I enjoyed listening to it.

Wow. Ace song here.
Hm. Only bad thing is a few timing issues,but it's not major.
Great job!

I like this song. I used this song...Not your version, on a song that Paganscradle and I recorded..I used the last verse at the end I forgot the name of it now..Ill have to look it up...you did this song really nice. Very nice voice ...

The song we did was......Baby Shine

Flyer

Nice Rating

The singing and playing are pretty good... the version's not exactly uplifting though!!! lol
Damn decent recording quality wise.
Keep it up!

Yeah the vox are really nice, I don't normaly comment on covers, but you have certailny put your mark on it.

The guitar sounds it's been strummed too hard in places, something I used to do a lot.

Excellent recording skills.

Nice job

This being a traditional, I don't really consider it a cover.... It's a great song... and done very heart felt and warmly..
 
   It isn't really supposed to be uplifting, it's a melancholy tune... But again, very well done...  Sure, there are a few timing issues, blah blah.. It's minor, when looking at the whole song, in it's entirety.. I have to say I really enjoyed listening to it... I won't ask about the dedication..
