Title: He Was A Friend Of Mine:Cover Version
Post by: Jennis on Nov 16, 2006, 10:02 PM: A duo that are being produced by Barry Manilow have recorded He was a friend of mine
It's different though as Barry has taken the lyrics and blended it with the BBM theme tune.They feature on a people reality show from what i can gather called Nemesis and it's on the LOGO channel.As i'm not in the states i don't know a great deal about it,just what i have picked up on.Anyway,thought you might like a listen to the sample track.Click on
HWAFOM and let me know what you think.I think it's lovely,especially the BBM music.

Personally, I prefer Willie Nelson's version.

Personally, I prefer Willie Nelson's version.
Do you hun?I don't like his voice actually,but i like this one.I would have preferred just the instrumental music at the end and not the three changes.I don't like the little doggies one either.
