  Ive gigged in bands for 26 years. We just played Come Together faithful to the original, but we all drop tune guitars to E flat because we are Americans with deeper voices! You have a vocal gift of higher pitch that I can only dream of.

  In my opinon, Come Together created an entire new genre in music. Nobody has taken it up yet but it&apos;s that unique.

  Playing songs that &nbsp;are familiar to the crowd is absolutely essential , Finbar you are so spot on.

  Great demo. I have just caught on to the skill of transposing songs to my most comfortable key. I&apos;m 74, and I can&apos;t reach those high notes like I used to. My lower bass voice is still very good. The audience doesn&apos;t really care about the key and doesn&apos;t even notice. They know the melody, regardless of the key. Knowing how to pick the best key for my voice, plus the easiest chord shapes, are 2 of the best and most valuable skills to have. Thanks for sharing.

  When i used to do open mic regularly, my go to Beatles songs were With a Little Help From My Friends, I&apos;m Only Slseping (my personal favourite Beatles song) and Cry Baby Cry, Kirkcaldy being my home town and getting name checked in the song. I&apos;m Looking Through You was one i was working on but I could never quite get it to performance level.

  I love how your voice sounds in the original key of &quot;Come Together&quot; and &quot;Saw her standing there&quot; It&apos;s a great range for you and I can tell you are capable of it. 😎
