Oh Darlin

[Rudolf Wagner]

Aww, thanks Rick for the sweet words ♥

Regarding covering The Beatles’ Oh Darling: It’s not that high up on our “potential covers” list but we love it dearly! Paul’s vocals are terrific and unless we find a way to interpret the song in an authentic way we’ll continue to admire it from afar 😉

Groovy greetings,
Mona & Lisa

[Rick Ross]

Hi Lisa,

You are most welcome.

Its a genuine pleasure to follow your careers.

Perhaps one day I will have the genuine pleasure of meeting you.

I understand that Oh Darlin  is not for everyone on the singing scale. Not that I don’t think you all would Nail the vocals. Its just one of those songs that either it fits your vision ot it doesn’t. Paul’s vocals are so strong and moves you in a very  special way.

Best wishes always.

Rick

This begs the question: exactly what songs are on the “potential covers” list?  I’ve said before that I’m more interested in new original songs, but if the Twins need a break from writing new material, I’d be curious to know what’s near the top of that list. And maybe, we fans could have a vote in what’s next.  What say you, MLT fans?

[David Herrick]

To be honest, Lynn, despite how generous Mona and Lisa have been in allowing us to go along for the ride with them, I doubt they would want us that close to the steering wheel.

 

[Jung Roe]

I agree with what David said.  While MLT always welcomes suggestions, what songs they decide to cover is there own, not by popular demand.  They are artists and not entertainers, so their artistic sense must always prevail which is sacred for artists.

[Lynn T. Newcomb]

I suppose that’s just as well.   Because if they told me their top two songs are “Come Together” and “The Sound of Silence” I really couldn’t decide which one I’d want them to do next.

Just to jump in here with a bit of a story on this song. Remember I asked if anyone hear of B E Taylor? Well on his Christmas Shows, he had a great band of local musicians and one guy who was in the band is named Herbie Gernadi  and B E Would highlight each member to do a song and Herbie did Oh Darlin and would sneak in Please come home for Christmas by the Eagles and wow he blew the roof off the house, so your correct that the song is very powerful vocally and Herbie did it justice.

Hi;

Concerning ‘Oh Darling’………. if anyone covers the song, it might be interesting to slow it down and turn it into a ballad or part ‘do op’.  To try can copy what Paul did with the song would be difficult at best.

Hi Mike,

If you are referring to Paul’s almost Metalcore voice technique (he was decades ahead of his time), I’m sure there must be a Metalcore band that would have fun with “Oh Darlin”.  Here’s a gem I found that takes a Taylor Swift song and spices it up nicely.  Maybe this girl would like to cover “Oh Darlin”.
