The second pop tune I learnt on the piano. First was Your Song. After that came Daniel, Amoreena, Where To Now, St. Peter, Levon, Rocket Man… Oh, and can’t forget Greatest Discovery. And of course Harmony. And Mona Lisa and Mad Hatters……..

Such an important song to me at the time as a 'blue jean baby, L.A. lady, dancing in the sand'

[@brittpatrick4381]

Dude im a bartender at the Wildhorse Saloon and you played a set there one afternoon like 6 months ago. Ill never forget when me and my friend where standing there talking you started playing this song with your band and we both just got quiet and turned towards the stage and listened in amazement. by the end of it we both had chillbumps all over our arms. your voice is incredible and you easily do the best cover of this song ive ever heard. keep doing your thing man, you are awesome!!!

[@nolanneal]

Thank you! I'll be releasing a record called "Under the Cover Songs soon and this will be on it. Live of course! I think autotune is one of the main things that hurt Rock & Roll so much! Rock & Roll is supposed to be all about the imperfections and how much we practice to master our instruments. Pro tools editing and auto tune is for Drake and Pop music! Which is fine :) Just don't belong in ROCK! ;)

This was in my "suggested" videos. Honestly, I scrolled passed it several times, but just because I'm not a huge fan of Tiny Dancer. Before anyone calls me names (haha), I've been a full-time Karaoke Jockey for the past 12+ years.. I can't deny my dislike for the song comes solely from how many countless nights I've heard it butchered in every possible way.. I'm so grateful I chose to give this video a listen!! Omg, this guy's voice is truly special.. such raw and natural beauty. I'm so eager to immediately go check out the rest of the uploads from this channel after I post this! Wow.. Peace & love from Missouri -DJ Todd

[@davidmalton3984]

Hello There Todd, I by no stretch of the imagination claim to be a "NOLAN NEAL", I think of myself, As a VERY UNSUCCESSFUL, SINGER/SONGWRITER, I write my own songs, And i have posted the ones that i am currently most proud of on my channel, However in order to get any sort of views i have to cover songs, Currently on my channel i have approx 46 songs, Most of which are covers, Ranging from ELTON JOHN, BON JOVI, CROWDED HOUSE,BREAD... JAMES BAY to LEWSI CAPALDI, To name but a few, That's the way the world works i understand this, So if you could spare some time to have a listen to my channel and possibly pass on some comments, That Would Be Great, Oh and one of my covers is "TINY DANCER", Most of my stuff is Acoustic, Either guitar vocal or piano vocal, So what you hear is how it is, KEEPING IT HONEST, If you have read this far, SORRY FOR WAFFLING, STAY FRIENDLY : 0 )
