New EP 'Wednesday' featuring covers of Radiohead's "No Surprises", The Beatles' "In My Life", John Mayer's "The Age of Worry" and Tom Waits' "Hold On" out Nov 6! Listen Now: madisoncunningham.lnk.to/wednesdayID
I love this song! Great cover. I play a version of this but not nearly as good ! Both sound great but guy doing the harmony ! Wow ! What perfectly beautiful tone. I may be just a tad jealous !
If you haven't seen her live make sure you do! Even more impressive live. Incredible guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter. All so effortless and pitch perfect...and she's only 22! Floored by her performance at Poisson Rouge in NYC the other night.
The Beatles wrote that in their mid-twenties. Rubber Soul. I was 13 years old when that album first came out. I KNEW exactly what they were saying in that song and started crying. I thought it was how older people reflect back on their lives. I'm now 66. I was right. Of course, you don't have to be old to have those feelings.
I understood it on one level, but it was after I experienced a special bond with my once-in-a-lifetime dog (who is no longer alive) that this song took on an even stronger meaning.
with the difference that when you get old enough you physically feel the painful loss of those you've lost along the way. When you're a teenager you understand perfectly but you've not yet cried the heartbreak of losing faces forever.
My dad was a Beatles fanatic, which is practically an understatement, considering he listened to Breakfast with the Beatles every Sunday morning, as well as having karaoke sessions with my mom and uncle every Saturday night. My bedtime lullabies were my dad strumming the guitar to the oldest classic albums of the Beatles. So when my dad passed away from cancer, this was the song I chose to go with the slide video. I can’t listen without balling my eyes out.
As I hit play, I was thinking, "What a lucky guy, to harmonize with Madison." A minute in, I'm thinking, "What a lucky woman, having such a fine player and singer to accompany you." Really fine harmonies, Mike; quite different from the original, but staying true to the spirit of the song-one of Lennon's best. -Tom
TLMuse Well, in music circles, Mike is a borderline legend. He was the music director for the "Walk Hard" movie and soundtrack. Has several solo records and a bunch as the leader of the power pop band, The Candy Butchers. He also contributed songs to That Thing You Do.
You two did John Lennon proud!!!!!! I have never said that before when it comes to Lennon EVER!!!!!!! Lennon is one of a kind and my favorite singer/songwriter of all time!!! VERY VERY NICELY DONE!!! BEAUTIFUL!!!!!✌️🎶☮️
I prefer this to the original tbh, although I recognize the impact and meaning of it coming from Beatles themselves, it has its distinct irreplaceable quality.
Lyrics "In My Life" There are places I'll remember All my life though some have changed Some forever not for better Some have gone and some remain All these places had their moments With lovers and friends I still can recall Some are dead and some are living In my life I've loved them all But of all these friends and lovers There is no one compares with you And these memories lose their meaning When I think of love as something new Though I know I'll never lose affection For people and things that went before I know I'll often stop and think about them In my life I love you more Though I know I'll never lose affection For people and things that went before I know I'll often stop and think about them In my life I love you more In my life I love you more
I can’t help but cry when I hear this cover. Morning coffee, crying in my kitchen as I type… no shame. You guys absolutely killed it. Unbelievable. Lifelong, die-hard Beatles fan as well. You MORE than did the song justice.
I walked down the aisle to this song at my wedding. 20 years later he is without a doubt the best thing that has ever happened to me. You made me cry....this cover is stunning❤
This is because their songs cannot be improved on as they are 'perfect' songs. I have heard covers where they change a chord, even subtle changes like minor to minor 7th and the song falls apart. You have to play the correct chords and sing them without too much ornamentals ect.. Mozart music was the same where if you change a single note it again just falls apart. Never mess with perfection.
@@MICKEYISLOWD Himesh Patel does a pretty good job; this is actually one of the songs where I prefer his slower, acoustic version over the original. I love the original, but with the rock background and speed I don't get the same feels.
This song alone is worth a subscription. At my wedding a long time ago my late mom danced with me to the original of this beautiful song. When my daughter gets married (hopefully, she really wants a family but has a chronically bad taste in men), if it's OK with her I'm going to have this version played for that special dance. Thanks for the exquisite arrangement, playing and vocal, just blissed out right now.
Masterpiece. Best band ever. Thank you John, Paul, George and Ringo for feed our souls with so beautiful songs. You are part of my life forever and ever.
Wow. Just stumbled onto this. Didn't know of Madison till today. I'm very choosy about what I add to my playlist. No hesitation here. Stunning talent, both of you. Vocals, guitars, both guitar and vocal arrangements, exquisite and original harmonies, production quality ... and all genuinely real and live. Look and learn youngsters. This is quality. If you thumbed down, my sympathy goes out to you.
I can't listen the original Beatles song now without thinking in the melody variation that Madison sings in "I know I'll often stop and think about them"... that melody change is AWESOME!!!!! gives me the goosebumps!
Wow this is beautiful. The harmony's and the string arrangements are amazing. One of my all time beatles songs. I always think of this song as a perfect song.
Wonderful cover! I came here after Josh‘s Livestream. He mentioned you in his Q&A. I will check out more of your videos for sure. Thank you for sharing 🙂🙋🏼♀️
yeeah really amazing how she does it, i have listen easy 500 times these parts and i can't reproduce the same when i'm singing. I'm curious about what they’re doing with the harmony variation in theory too
WOW You two compliment each other so well vocally and on guitar. Mike I loved the soft background vocals you performed then you nailed the lead guitar. Bravo to both of you. Madison I felt your soul. Fabulous performance. MY EARS THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Just WOW!!! You made a grown man cry. Possibly the most beautiful version of this song ive ever heard. The beauty you bring to this song is unparallelled. I sincerely hope you two are teaming up for some more songs in this tone. Please please do more songs together. You guys have the magic
Nice cover. It has always amazed me that Lennon was only about 24 years old when he wrote this song that has such a mature and bittersweet perspective on life.
That’s truly mind-blowing. I’m 30 right now, and I always forget that The Beatles started in the industry really young and wrote their best songs in their 20s. There was indeed a maturity about artists back then that unfortunately only about 1-5% of the artists out there today have.
@@m.h.1593 I've also always been amazed at how young these guys were when they died, given the impact they've had on pop music: Buddy Holly was 22 and Hank Williams was 29 (he looked 49).
Fantastic arrangement. She's got a phenomenal voice and she's a really good guitarist. Mike Viola's harmony is perfect. If you don't already know, he sang That Thing You Do.
wow, fabulous (and very difficult) harmony, man o man!! Just really impressive. Your friend Mike is dynamite, damn. Just to keep that wild harmony so in tune is pretty amazing. Also lovely guitar arrangements. Thanks
Not many cover the harmony or chord nuances in this short masterpiece of a song. You guys DID IT! Very much so ! Thank you for paying attention to an amazing song!
A very old ache just came back to me. I was in love with Judy Collins. You hit my heart just the same. You might have a listen to "Someday Soon". Thanks for being.
Really well done. Brings out the emotion in it. This was when John Lennon was married to Cynthia, the mother of his firstborn child, and they'd been together about 7 years at this point. I really love the way you emphasized the ending I love you more. Soulful.

Being a Liverpool lad who no longer lives there, this was a joy to listen to and remember. Thank you x
How come you don’t have him featured on this song in Spotify... that’s kinda messed up.
Beatles, Radiohead, John Mayer...oh boy
I love this song! Great cover. I play a version of this but not nearly as good ! Both sound great but guy doing the harmony ! Wow ! What perfectly beautiful tone. I may be just a tad jealous !
Incredibly impressive. Excellent arrangement and engineering, laser-accurate vocal tuning. Damn fine work.
Josh Turner Guitar couldn’t agree more 👍😊
Cant get better than being complemented by the other josh turner, and In my opinion the better one of the two!
If you haven't seen her live make sure you do! Even more impressive live. Incredible guitarist, vocalist, and songwriter. All so effortless and pitch perfect...and she's only 22! Floored by her performance at Poisson Rouge in NYC the other night.
oh my god you here, big fan
I listened to this and thought "Josh Turner would probably love this" then saw you in the comments haha

@ Jeff A beautifully expressed
Shut upppppppp you old idiot. You interpret this song that way because you’re sad.
I love and cry every time I hear it. Beautiful version by these two.
I've been listening to her version for years but I had no idea it was recorded LIVE?!?!? Dang, huge respect. Absolutely beautiful.
You got a man sweetie 😘 Im a war hero
My dad was a Beatles fanatic, which is practically an understatement, considering he listened to Breakfast with the Beatles every Sunday morning, as well as having karaoke sessions with my mom and uncle every Saturday night.

Don’t say that !! Now your making me cry

I did not recognize him but he is the original performer for That Thing You Do.
@@Papayajoseph Yes. I believe he co-wrote the song, also, with Adam Schlesinger of Fountains of Wayne who tragically passed of Covid-19 yesterday.
That's exactly what i was thinking.
You two did John Lennon proud!!!!!! I have never said that before when it comes to Lennon EVER!!!!!!! Lennon is one of a kind and my favorite singer/songwriter of all time!!! VERY VERY NICELY DONE!!! BEAUTIFUL!!!!!✌️🎶☮️
The harmony on “some are dead and some are living” is simply stunning. Overall just an beautiful rendition.x
Absolutely true
She just changed the melody on that line. I agree that it sounds great.
beautiful rendition of one of John's most moving songs.
Please sing more with Mike Viola.. his voice is so amazing..
That was one of the greatest versions I've ever heard of that song!
Agreed!
Judy Collins does a nice woman’s voiced cover from 1966 worth a listen.
I am completely rethinking my own cover. Fabulous job @MadisonCunningham
Frl

Lyrics
"In My Life"
There are places I'll remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places had their moments
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all
But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
In my life I love you more
i just discoverd this song, such a beautiful song. theres still a ton of great beatles songs to be listened to the first time:)
Thank you!
beautiful songwriting honestly. 🥺
Not easy to cover the Beatles well, but this is wonderful.

We have a raw cover :) hehe th-cam.com/video/TSjv8NT9Lec/w-d-xo.html
U can never go wrong with Madison Cunningham. I really really love her especially with the cover song ‘So Long, Frank Lloyd Wright’.
What? It's very easy to cover The Beatles well.
This song just makes you think about life. It’s meaningful for anyone who listens.
Everytime I pass by a cemetery it plays automatically in my head
I can’t help but cry when I hear this cover. Morning coffee, crying in my kitchen as I type… no shame. You guys absolutely killed it. Unbelievable. Lifelong, die-hard Beatles fan as well. You MORE than did the song justice.
It's breathtaking, give me chills.
So beautiful, I watched this and the tears just rolled. One of my fave Beatles songs. Still has that effect on me over 50 years later.
She has one of the most relaxed but powerful force
I walked down the aisle to this song at my wedding. 20 years later he is without a doubt the best thing that has ever happened to me. You made me cry....this cover is stunning❤
This is simply one of the best Beatles covers ever. Two super talents❤
Ever since I discovered this gorgeous rendition, I come back every day to listen again
Yes it's hard not to come back and listen to this beautiful cover.
It's a tour de force.
One of the best Beatles covers I've ever heard.
Legit. Their combination of voices, the mic’ing, sound production, so good.
A perfect example of how a song can evolve. Really like this.
Being a Beatles'fan, I'm quite demanding and reluctant to covers, but I must admit this is a beautiful one. Congratulations!
I am the same! Have a listen to 'Walk off the earth' s beatles medley and let me know what you think. I thought it was bloody brilliant!
@@lukaswingendorf8474 You're right! Thanks. What great music the Beatles made!"
@@edgardobravo7351 absolutely, they never fail to amaze me, even after so many years.

Beautiful harmonies, your voices are a gift
That vocal harmony is godmode.
心やすらぐ優しい歌声にうっとりします😍もともとアップテンポのところをスローで歌われてギターとの相性もバッチリ✌️サイコ～ざんす💯🙉
So glad to see MC getting real recognition.
This song alone is worth a subscription. At my wedding a long time ago my late mom danced with me to the original of this beautiful song. When my daughter gets married (hopefully, she really wants a family but has a chronically bad taste in men), if it's OK with her I'm going to have this version played for that special dance.

Dave Mathews does a good one
I came here after being absolutely floored by Madison's cover of Tom Waits' "Hold On". Now this. Oh me oh my. I just struck gold.
the finest backing vocal a song has ever had, I'm stunned by the geezer
One of the best covers of this song. Nice harmony and guitars. Well done!!
Your rhythm and harmony are impeccable. John would love this. ❤
Masterpiece. Best band ever. Thank you John, Paul, George and Ringo for feed our souls with so beautiful songs. You are part of my life forever and ever.
What a gem of a cover, both vocals are so complementary
What a wonderful way to reinvent this beautiful song! Beautiful!!!!!!
Mike, what a beautiful harmony with Madison's melody... changes the character of this song in a beautiful way.
Those harmonies were wonderful! Both vocals were impeccable!
Everytime I hear this song, the tears just flow, beautiful version!!
Wow. Just stumbled onto this. Didn't know of Madison till today. I'm very choosy about what I add to my playlist. No hesitation here. Stunning talent, both of you. Vocals, guitars, both guitar and vocal arrangements, exquisite and original harmonies, production quality ... and all genuinely real and live. Look and learn youngsters. This is quality.

There's so much going for this performance: Arrangement, harmonies, guitar-work, mood and videography. Nicely done.
I can't listen the original Beatles song now without thinking in the melody variation that Madison sings in "I know I'll often stop and think about them"... that melody change is AWESOME!!!!! gives me the goosebumps!
Precious. Voice of an angel and beautiful harmony. It takes some serious balls to take that song on. I really enjoyed your version.
Wow this is beautiful. The harmony's and the string arrangements are amazing.
One of my all time beatles songs. I always think of this song as a perfect song.
I listen to this almost daily and it brings me calm during pandemic. It also brings me sweet joy.
So moving. & Mike, your home is beautiful.
this is the perfect cover. good lord
madison is obv great, Mikes backing /harmonies are so grounded
Wonderful cover! I came here after Josh‘s Livestream. He mentioned you in his Q&A. I will check out more of your videos for sure. Thank you for sharing 🙂🙋🏼♀️
keep coming back to this take. always touches me like the first time
Stunning! Such a beautiful performance of a classic track. Love the melody/harmony variation on "some are dead and some are living" 1:10 . Kudos!
Ken Stewart I made a stank face when I heard that, it was awesome.
Any music theory folks want to explain what they’re doing with the harmony variation? I’m curious.
yeeah really amazing how she does it, i have listen easy 500 times these parts and i can't reproduce the same when i'm singing. I'm curious about what they’re doing with the harmony variation in theory too
WOW You two compliment each other so well vocally and on guitar. Mike I loved the soft background vocals you performed then you nailed the lead guitar. Bravo to both of you. Madison I felt your soul. Fabulous performance. MY EARS THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!
Never heard this sung in close harmony. Beautiful!
Being great at harmony is the most underrated skill in music. Absolutely fantastic performance, both of you.
Also, put his name in the video title.
Absolutely outstanding cover. The guitar arrangements, the vocal harmonies. Had chills the entire way through. I'm going back in for a second listen!
That was wonderful.
So pretty! Madison, you guys give this a wistful longing for lost beauty that even the original didn't capture as well.
Spectacular ! You made this your own. Many thanks.
Chilling vocals and excellent adaptation of George Martin’s piano solo for the guitar
Just WOW!!! You made a grown man cry. Possibly the most beautiful version of this song ive ever heard. The beauty you bring to this song is unparallelled.
I sincerely hope you two are teaming up for some more songs in this tone. Please please do more songs together. You guys have the magic

@@m.h.1593 And lest we forget, Paul McCartney began writing "Yesterday" when he was 22--he completed it when he was 23.
GuyNoirxyz my goodness. It really puts perspective into things, doesn’t it?😂
@@m.h.1593 I've also always been amazed at how young these guys were when they died, given the impact they've had on pop music: Buddy Holly was 22 and Hank Williams was 29 (he looked 49).
Oh my. Makes me realize how reflected and awake he was. I’m 24 now, and could never come up with something half as good this. Ever.
Fantastic arrangement. She's got a phenomenal voice and she's a really good guitarist. Mike Viola's harmony is perfect. If you don't already know, he sang That Thing You Do.
The best rendition I've ever heard / seen. Well done, takes a minute to recover from the impression your beautiful interpretation leaves...
wow, fabulous (and very difficult) harmony, man o man!! Just really impressive. Your friend Mike is dynamite, damn. Just to keep that wild harmony so in tune is pretty amazing. Also lovely guitar arrangements. Thanks
Madison you are amazing! the best female singer/ performer in the business!!
Mike's harmonies are crazy good!!!!!
Would love to hear his vocal isolated
Wow, just wow 😍. The melody and the harmony, really love it ❤️.
Not many cover the harmony or chord nuances in this short masterpiece of a song. You guys DID IT! Very much so ! Thank you for paying attention to an amazing song!
Beautiful version. Pays great respect to the song and the Beatles while at the same time putting your own distinctive mark on it.
This is superb : the arrangements, the playing, your voices together. WOW !!!! Thank you !
This is lovely. Thank you for sharing! The guitar bridge from 2:11 to 2:32 is really nice. I listened to a few times.
Bridge is straight Boss Banger, like sample worthy - they brought it w/ ease like it's always been there.
what a beautiful combination of guitar and vocals. Bravo.
Lovely version....this song done acoustically gets me everytime....
So rad! Mike is one of my all time favourites! Super cool to get to hear you sing with him! Nicely done!
A very old ache just came back to me. I was in love with Judy Collins. You hit my heart just the same. You might have a listen to "Someday Soon". Thanks for being.

That brought a tear to the eye. Lovely!!!
So incredibly beautiful! Those two voices are going together so well!
U guys make me wanna sing this song again and again....
Love it.
Love these two. And their lights!
Maravilhoso !!!!!😭
Thank you both for this blissful moment! Masterfully performed!
Beautiful. You should send that to Paul.
Great. Excellent harmonisation from Mike.
Just drove by goosebump city, really happily I did
Wonderful! Most beautiful cover version of this song! Thank you!!
Just fell a little bit in love with you both. This cover was so beautiful.
Stunning M & M. Straight to my Fave Covers Playlist.
Great song profound lyrics covered perfectly.
Your voice fits this song perfectly!! Excellent solo! And I teared up a bit on the ending! Sooo good!! Come to Nashville soon!
Beautiful! One of my favorite songs, and now my 2nd favorite version! (Sorry ... the Beatles still come in at #1.) Thank you for this.
What a lovely rendition. Two very harmonious voices. Exquisite.
I'd love to see Madison doing a duet with Margaret Glaspy. That would be something else.
Absolutely stunning, a beautiful rendition. Those harmonies. Brought me to happy tears xoxo
The song is a work of artistic genius.
My god you two harmonize phenomenally. Might be my favorite beatles cover to date, can't think of one better than this...
This woman has a unique voice tone.
that was wonderful... like how you guys made slight changes in the tune, beautiful.
There are places I'll remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some have gone, and some remain
All these places had their moments
With lovers and friends, I still can recall
Some are dead, and some are living
In my life, I've loved them all
But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life, I'll love you more
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I'll love you more
In my life I'll love you more
This is an absolutely magnificent cover. The arrangements, playing and vocals are outstanding. 👏
Outstanding. Who are the idiots who gave this a thumbs-down? It’s beautiful.
