I cannot tell you how glad I am that I was on Twitter at 10pm last night (Friday 12th March).  It suddenly popped up on my screen…this message below:

parachute If I (Will) wanted to do a uStream session tonight where I play some cover songs for you all, would anyone watch at 5:45pm?

Well…tell me which crazy lune Parachute fan wouldn’t? So I tweeted back:

minihobo @parachute how do we watch it in the UK? and what time is that in london? 5.45 EST?!?!?

To my surprise, seconds later Will tweeted this:

parachute If I get 20 people, I’ll do one cover. 35= two, and 50= three cover songs. 545PM EST, 245PM PST, 104PM5 UK time. Link to come

So again, I replied with a practical suggestion:

minihobo @parachute Give us a #tag to use!

Will responded with another tweet with all the information I needed to make this, otherwise, boring Friday night, just a little bit special:

parachute Going live in 11 minutes at http://www.ustream.tv/channel/parachute-does-some-cover-songs . Hashtag is: #parachutelive

The UStream was amazing, all the covers can be found at my YouTube Channel.

I don’t want to give too much away but I do suggest that you head straight over to YouTube and check out Will’s awesome covers of:

Hallelujah – Originally by Leonard Cohen (covered by many including Jeff Buckley, Alexandra Burk and Kate Voegele)

Crash – Originally by Dave Crowder Band

Cannonball – Originally by Damien Rice

and…my personal favourite of the night

When The Stars Go Blue – Originally by Ryan Adams (covered by Bethany Joy Galeotti of Everly and Tyler Hilton on One Tree Hill)

Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy…

I did!
