Golden Brown - The Stranglers (Cover)

[@DavidVirginia86]

Man this is just great. Great arrangement, voicing, athmosphere of the video is just perfect! I've been playing for years but always struggle to really practice, but this got me amped up and I've been playing your Golden Brown for hours now. Thank you for bringing this joy back and keep it up my man!

[@KristenFamularo]

Oh that’s really cool it’s got you practicing! Thanks mate I’m glad you enjoyed it

[@georgemasmanidis2847]

That's an inexplicably short version of this legendary song. Should have lasted 10x at least. Hats off man!!! Pure epicness here ...

[@snudge9626]

I remember this 1980s song when it was in the charts. Very accomplished cover, loved it.

[@KristenFamularo]

Thanks I totally thought it was 60’s song when I first heard it on the movie Snatch

[@snudge9626]

December 1981. You played it perfectly.@@KristenFamularo

[@Anthony-ug2zy]

Everything is perfect even the ray lights in your room! Thank you for your amazing work, big fan from France

[@KristenFamularo]

Thanks so much, the golden light was a fluke haha

[@RomainG6409]

you are a beast ! Nothing wrong there, everything is just perfect, including the light ambiance ... Fantastic job !

[@KristenFamularo]

Thanks so much mate, the light was a fluke haha

[@jrjamola5676]

Whenever I need an inspiration to pick up my guitar or that extra push and motivation to practice I always go to your covers. You sir deserve so much more views on youtube! Happy new year!

[@KristenFamularo]

Oh that’s so great to hear. Thanks man I really hope KZbin helps me with the algorithm one day soon.

[@jrjamola5676]

You will get there no doubt! Talent like yours is hard to ignore! Please continue to make these videos you inspire more people than you may know. ❤

[@JS1896-gs4bq]

Dude, that was amazing! Cheers from Germany

[@KristenFamularo]

Thanks so much

[@vanlillmusic]

Too good man. Love the camera angles and natural lighting too

[@KristenFamularo]

Thanks man!

[@Ben__David]

Beautiful performance. Still astonished abouthow you managed to get that beautiful audio quality with only one mic

[@KristenFamularo]

Thanks man! The guitar is plugged in as well. So some of the guitar sound is through the pickup but mostly the mic. I’m probably going to invest in a guitar mic soon.

[@Ben__David]

@@KristenFamularo That makes sense. Thanks for the response!

[@tspmcfarlane]

Absolutely beautiful

[@דורדלאלי]

Wow! I have listened to all of your covers and i really love your playing and singing! Please keep doing more songs🙏

[@KristenFamularo]

Thanks so much I really hope to

[@dimakr2949]

I'd love to play as exquisite as you. So rich in sound and such harmony!

[@KristenFamularo]

Thanks so much

[@jmcdl]

All your stuff is amazing. Never heard of this song before but I love it.

[@marantz1]

Wow. Your arrangements are always so great.

[@inarteDipa]

Fantastic

[@sukatada]

Damn bro, what a phenomenal cover 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@geoffdaley9807]

Another absolutely splendid arrangement! Amazing...I love it!

[@KristenFamularo]

Glad you like it!

[@allovervancouver2456]

Impeccable singing, playing and arrangement as usual, Kristen! I'm so glad to see you making videos again. This is my new favorite of yours, after "Everybody's Talkin'". I first found out about you when KZbin recommended this video cover of "I Will" by famofunk. I was blown away from the first note! I watched all the videos in the channel (what little there was on it) and wondered to myself "who is this famofunk guy and why isn't he famous?" I subscribed and shared the channel with the rest of my family and Googled "famofunk". Eventually I found you on Instagram and caught up with your posts and videos there. It's great to see you're getting back to form and recovering from your recent health scare and enjoying life in Colorado. And I'm glad you're using your real name now because people need to know. I wish you continued success, health and happiness in 2024, and keep on playing and posting new videos! We're all eagerly waiting for the next one.

[@KristenFamularo]

Thanks so much for the kind words! I play weddings for a living and to be honest most of the time I’m background noise, so it’s always nice to see comments like yours that appreciate what I do. I’m on time off for three months in America and I’m hoping to have time to record some videos and grow this KZbin thing.

[@allovervancouver2456]

@@KristenFamularo This is such a difficult song to cover because of the crazy time signatures. It took four people to record the original, but you've got this down all by yourself. Really quite impressive! I also did find your Famos & Co website and channel and watched all the videos I could find. I especially love your Duo harmonies with Chelsea. So I'm glad to know that you are making a living playing music. Enjoy your break, but please upload more videos of the songs in your songlist. Or I might just crash one of your weddings so I can watch a full Famo's Duo concert.

[@grahama7958]

Thanks for posting another top class cover Kristen. I’d love to book you as a wedding singer but ‘I’m never going back (there) again’😂 Best of luck to ye from Ireland. 🍀

Congratulations! This version is really excellent in every way!

[@KristenFamularo]

Thank you very much!

[@rubenssz]

Awesome cover. Your voice sounds more in place in this range than in your other covers.

[@KristenFamularo]

Thanks for listening

[@rubenssz]

@@KristenFamularo your guitar skills are unmatched. Would you mind doing Me and Bobby McGee sometime? Thanks and I'll keep sharing your work

[@frankb1]

Very nice!

Wonderful.

Thank you!

[@boratsagdiyev3936]

Beautiful

[@KristenFamularo]

Thank you

[@Apoula73]

Really good. Perfect chorus, I would put some bass notes on the bridge but anyway you do it 200x better than I do!

[@TheClagga]

Absolutely brilliant arrangement and it works so well for fingerpicking the chords! Smooth like butter! Any chance of tabs for this one?

[@leventejuhasz9939]

Lovely☺️💙!

[@KristenFamularo]

Thank you! 😊

[@PhilipLaRocca]

Spectacular as always. Do you pluck the strings with your fingernails or the pads of your fingers? Precision is phenomenal

[@KristenFamularo]

Thanks Phil! My fake nails are pretty over grown at the moment so nails were doing most of it in this one. The thumb nail especially.

[@PhilipLaRocca]

So interesting! Thank you. When I pluck with my thumb it’s usually parallel to the neck/strings (with my thumb sort of angled towards the headstock), so never thought to use my thumbnail. Is your thumb more pointing at your chest/perpendicular to the strings when you play? Thanks again and appreciate the insight as always!

[@KristenFamularo]

@@PhilipLaRoccaI’m usually the same, I’d usually have my inside part of my wrist planted on the guitar for bracing my hand in the right place. Most people use a pinky but I never learned it that way. For this song I didn’t do that, so my fake thumb nail would hit the string alone. It helps with loudness and also made it easier to get those quick double strokes. So it is kind of facing in a little for this song.

[@PhilipLaRocca]

Thank you so much @@KristenFamularo
