November Rain - Guns N' Roses (Acoustic cover by Martin Ekman | One Man Band)

Hi and welcome! This is my cover of *November Rain*, Guns N' Roses amazing power ballad.
 
**ABOUT THIS COVER:**
This song is amazing. I've played it since I was a kid, and absolutely love it. I was considering to make it big, with drums and electric guitars and stuff, but came to the conclusion that my best version would be this naked one with only piano and vocals, just like I've played it many times before. I hope you enjoy my version! If you do, please like, comment, and subscribe for more covers and original music – Thank you.
 
**ABOUT ME:**
 
My name is Martin Ekman, also known as Martin "One Man Band" Ekman, and I’m passionate about creating and sharing music with the world. I’m a self-taught musician and don’t play by sheet music, which makes me approach music in a more intuitive and personal way.  I produce both my own songs and covers of songs I love, all from my home studio. I usually record all the instruments and vocals myself, but sometimes I invite my friends to join me, which is always a lot of fun. I live in Stockholm, Sweden. If there's anything you want to know about me, don’t hesitate to ask!
 
 
**MY CREATIVE PROCESS:**
 
I usually start by laying down the piano and vocals, or sometimes guitar and vocals, as the foundation. After that, I add the other instruments, such as drums, bass, percussion, and recently, I’ve started playing the cello as well. My goal is always to preserve the "soul" of the original song, while at the same time adding my own personal touch to make it unique. In other words, I aim to keep what I love about the song. I’d love it if you followed my journey – I plan to keep creating and sharing music for years to come!

When I look into your eyes
I can see a love restrained
But darlin' when I hold you
Don't you know I feel the same?

Nothin' lasts forever
And we both know hearts can change
And it's hard to hold a candle
In the cold November rain

We've been through this such a long long time
Just tryin' to kill the pain, ooh yeah
Love is always coming, love is always going
No one's really sure who's lettin' go today
Walking away

If we could take the time to lay it on the line
I could rest my head just knowin' that you were mine
All mine
So if you want to love me then darlin' don't refrain
Or I'll just end up walkin' in the cold November rain

Do you need some time on your own?
Do you need some time all alone?
Ooh, everybody needs some time on their own
Ooh, don't you know you need some time all alone

I know it's hard to keep an open heart
When even friends seem out to harm you
But if you could heal a broken heart
Wouldn't time be out to charm you?
Oh, oh, oh

Sometimes I need some time on my own
Sometimes I need some time all alone
Ooh, everybody needs some time on their own
Ooh, don't you know you need some time all alone

And when your fears subside
And shadows still remain, oh yeah
I know that you can love me when there's no one left to blame
So never mind the darkness, we still can find a way
'Cause nothin' lasts forever, even cold November rain

Don't ya think that you need somebody?
Don't ya think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one

Don't ya think that you need somebody?
Don't ya think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one

Don't ya think that you need somebody?
Don't ya think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody
You're not the only one
You're not the only one

Don't ya think that you need somebody?
Don't ya think that you need someone?
Everybody needs somebody

best cover ive come across so far that does the song justice... wish the video had the lyrics on the side but ehh... the search continues lol

[richardfurlin]

Bravo. One of the best piano covers of that song. Stripped down and emotional

[emanuelesatta]

Amazing, like a gentle rain after the storm. One of my closest friend two days ago committed suicide, this is a gentle musical hug for me

[monahald]

[RockStarMichael]

That was beautiful. Made the song yours, and yet still the original song. Extremely difficult to do. Bravo.

[kristinahaack]

Lieber Martin, ich habe eine ganz besondere Beziehung zu diesen Song. Mit deiner Version hast du mich sehr berührt. Danke!

[cgonzt]

This is good ear cleaner man.. nice audio mix! I have NS3, what patch is that? Thanks ps. I’m sure Axl will love this 😆

[james]

It’s a brave task to take a song of legendary status, and try to put a delicate spin on it, which makes it a touch more personal to the artist.

For me, that’s been done here. To perfection.

Let me offer my (humble) congratulations 🙂

(Please, a question. Please can you let me know the make and model of the piano you play? Thank you).
