Acoustic cover of Toto - Africa. Apologies in advance for the ordinary vocals on this one. Had to lower the octave in the chorus because I just couldn't hit it without sounding like a cat being strangled.
Thanks a lot for this cover, Pete! Your guitar arrangements are always simple, yet very effective at capturing the essence of the song. I like your vocals as well. I have a similar voice range and have been practicing Africa with your video for over a month now - I know that I must do what's right. ;-)
Muito obrigado, você toca essa música que eu acho super difícil com muita facilidade, notas simples, agora eu vou conseguir tocar essa música incrível!!!!
Love it , but just wondering if you had started without the capo would it have been easier(more comfortable) to move up into the range with the chorus ? Or does it not work like that ? I just found your channel so sorry if you have talked about this elsewhere , love your tutorials .
Great Video as always! Well except for the Chorus but hey, Who can sing as high as Toto's singer? seriously! Thanks again for all your great work, I always enjoy your tutorials and covers. Ps: Is this standard Tuning? Cheers from Tunisia

Great guitar work! God i wish i was half that good. Granted, i'm only half as good a singer as you are. And you're not too good a singer.
I like that he cant sing. It makes me feel not so self concious about my singing so I can focus on guitar like he does.
He can sing. Just not the highest parts of this song.
Beautiful
