Forever - Mumford & Sons (piano and cello cover

To be honest, I hadn't listened to Mumford and Sons in a long long time before my friend David Doyle (who is playing the cello here but was too lazy to record the video for it) recommended I take a listen to their new stuff. So as you can guess, I thought this song was pretty gorgeous, along with a few others. Perhaps if you're like me and forgot about that band for the last 6 years or so you could check em out and find something you like too!

In the meantime here's this instrumental take. I am hoping to definitely improve video quality by the end of the month so bare with me these blurry vids.

Enjoy!

I know I've had you troubled
And I know I've seared your mind
But you know that I love you
And that our love's not blind
I'm sure my dreams lie with you
But I've many more besides
And if I can't see them through
Our love will slowly die
So if you doubt for the time that you're spending
And if you doubt for the love in your heart
Think of London and the girl you're returning
And the days you defend will turn to gold
So love with your eyes
Love with your mind
Love with your, dare I say forever
Do it for yourself
Do it for the girl
Do it for your, dare I say forever
And I've known pious women
Who have lead such secret lives
Shameless in the dark, so shameful in the light
And you may not be pious and I may not be saved
But we could live quite happily and quietly unfazed
So if you doubt for the time that you're spending
And if you doubt for the love in your heart
Think of London and the girl you're returning
And the days you defend will turn to gold
So love with your eyes
Love with your mind
Love with your, dare I say forever
Do it for yourself
Do it for the girl
Do it for your, dare I say forever
I was dreaming of the Liffey
I was thinking of the Thames
And now the east river flows by to the same end
Are we too sentimental to not look back and stare?
So love with your eyes
Love with your mind
Love with your, dare I say forever
Do it for yourself
Do it for the girl
Do it for your, dare I say forever

Beautiful! The cello blends in very well. Mumford & Sons songs are all so good on piano. :)

Amazing! You did such a wonderful job Luke 👏

[matthewschaefer]

Luke, I would love to purchase a mp4, CD, even a Vinyl of your version of Forever. I stumbled upon this a couple weeks before my wedding day and it hit so hard we had to use it. Watching the love of my life walk down the aisle to your masterpiece. I have nothing but thanks for you helping making our day the best day of our lives.

Do you have the piano sheet, this version is just wonderful

I'm not crying, you're crying.

Are you selling this as an mp3 anywhere? I’d love to buy a copy to put on my itunes.

[sarahandkeaneyarish]

Hi Luke, this is so beautiful. Is there a way to get a copy of this to provide to our DJ as we would like to use for our wedding processional?

[marionreyes]

Where is the cellist? Love it. Will you share the cello music sheet or where you bought it? Thanks.

[MrBrightside-M]

Hey Luke and David, your version of this song is incredibly beautiful! Is it allowed that I take your version and record it with my vocals? That would make me very happy!
