Dear Boy's version is softer, more wistful than the original. Ben's voice is perfect, laced with yearning and a sort of wonder that cuts straight to what the song is about. Brilliant.

Nice cover. You stayed true to the song but made it your own!

Jackson Browne - Don't Let Us Get Sick (Sweet Relief III: Pennies From Heaven)

Snow Patrol Reworked - Chasing Cars Live At The Royal Albert Hall

[Verse]
In the darkness
I'm feeling the pain
I'm drowning in silence
Going insane
Without you near
Nothing feels right
Every day is a never-ending fight

[Verse 2]
I'm counting the minutes
Waiting your call
But my phone stays silent
It's driving me small
The silence is deafening
Tearing me down
I'm lost and confused in this ghost town

[Chorus]
When you're not around
My world falls apart
My heartache's a symphony
Playing in my heart
When you're not around
I'm running on empty
I'm trying to breathe
But it's hard to be steady

When You're Not Around

Heroes  David Bowie

Produced by Dear Boy & Tim Hutton
Mixed by Doug Boehm
