This is the 67th video, which I uploaded last year. This is a cover of a Coldplay song from the album "Parachutes". Quite a few people have requested that I cover this tune, so it's about time I got around to doing it.

I used to sing this song quite a lot, and it's a favourite of some of my personal friends. I find Coldplay songs enjoyable to sing because of the scope for versatility in the vocals, and the chance to do falsetto, and this song is not short on that.

See what you think:

Well the numbers are still steadily rising on Youtube. Here's the latest.

Iv'e now got 589 Subscribers. I'm closing in on 600.

The Channel views are 12,360, and an overall video view count of 178,166. I should pass the 200,000 within a month, the way things are going.

A few friends suggested that I try out for the Youtube partnership program. I tried it, but got refused in a gentle way. It seems that the quantity of my original material is insufficient, or I don't get enough constant traffic to my videos, to qualify yet. I shall keep on trying

The reaction to the last cover I did, "Yellow" by "Coldplay" was very positive. It got a good burst of viewings in the first few days. Over 800.

That was the most requested song on my list. Now on to the second most requested song. This one is quite a recent song, and is by a top group called Travis. This song is called Closer, and it's taken from their latest album.

I've had some good ideas for new videos, but I wanted to keep the best ideas back for my own original songs. So I ended up making a video for this, which was humorous. My video editing software took ages to render the opening sequence. I think it was worth it though.

Check out my version of Closer by Travis. I hope you find the video amusing. It made me laugh when I made it.

I've uploaded a number of vids in the past few weeks, but it doesn't seem to be affecting the growth in my Youtube figures so far. My subs are now up to 597. Only 3 more to get to 600.

My channel has now been viewed 12,631 times and there have been a total of 183,585 viewings of my videos.

That's it for this post.
