man, this is not an easy song to sing, it takes a lot of feeling emotions, and expertise to make it sound perfect as Greg Lake did. Bravo Mr. Kamat

Taking on Epitaph could have gone wrong in so many ways, and none of them happened here. A truly excellent job done.

The wall on which the prophets wrote Is cracking at the seams Upon the instruments of death The sunlight brightly gleams When every man is torn apart With nightmares and with dreams Will no one lay the laurel wreath When silence drowns the screams Confusion will be my epitaph As I crawl a cracked and broken path If we make it, we can all sit back and laugh But I fear, tomorrow, I'll be crying Yes, I fear, tomorrow, I'll be crying Yes, I fear, tomorrow, I'll be crying Between the iron gates of fate The seeds of time were sown And watered by the deeds of those Who know and who are known Knowledge is a deadly friend If no one sets the rules The fate of all mankind, I see Is in the hands of fools The wall on which the prophets wrote Is cracking at the seams Upon the instruments of death The sunlight brightly gleams When every man is torn apart With nightmares and with dreams Will no one lay the laurel wreath When silence drowns the screams Confusion will be my epitaph As I crawl, a cracked and broken path If we make it, we can all sit back and laugh But I fear, tomorrow, I'll be crying Yes, I fear, tomorrow, I'll be crying Yes, I fear, tomorrow, I'll be crying Crying, crying Yes, I fear, tomorrow, I'll be crying Yes, I fear, tomorrow, I'll be crying Yes, I fear, tomorrow, I'll be crying Crying

[@tommus]

Your voice is so smooth and clear. Great expression. So passionate. I have loved this song since I first heard it in high school in 1970. Thanks for a brilliant cover.

[@siddheshkamat1267]

Thank you for your kind words :)

[@someoneno-one7672]

A very competent guitar work and an incredibly nuanced singing. This song is enormously difficult because it requires a different approach virtually to every line. Extremely well done (may be one-two moments need a tad of polishing but there is always room for improvement, you know). Good luck with more videos.

[@siddheshkamat1267]

Thanks a lot :)

Thanks :)

[@MeganAnimalLover]

@@siddheshkamat1267 I always liked that song but didn't care much about the lyrics. I wish they were romantic words. Do you think you could write some beautiful romantics words and sing that song? I can write the words for you if you want.

[@siddheshkamat1267]

Thank you for your suggestion. But the main reason I love the song is because of it's lyrics. So I don't want to tamper with the originality of the song as it will lose it's authenticity as per me.

[@MeganAnimalLover]

@@siddheshkamat1267 Thank you. Keep singing. You have an exceptional voice...

[@MeganAnimalLover]

I listen to your voice periodically because it is exceptionally good... I wrote a very short lyrics for this music. If you would be kind enough to sing it for me please let me know. I would really appreciate it... I just would like this beautiful music to present love and life instead of death :-) [e-mail] is my e-mail. Look forward to hearing from you...

A truly phenomenal performance! I used this song for a music video last year and I got a lot of traction because of it, but I was to scared to ask for permission back then. I have you credited in the description, but would you like more recognition for this great cover? Maybe a pinned comment to you video? Anyway, this is a great cover and I love your other ones too, especially the "Bird of Paradise" cover. Keep up the great work!

Why doesn't anyone see that hes obviously not the one singing and its playback

[@gungachingaunga]

@@juliangarcialobo7299 are you implying its the original singer from the original song singing? because its not. the tone, the slight indian accent that deviates from the british one, the fact the muscles in his throat are very tense and the fact the vocal chords are almost at his chin implying he is straining to sing it coinciding with the tense and weak tone of the singing (as in, if he went even slightly higher his vochal chords would not resonate) proves to me that he is the one singing it, believe me.
