Hi, here's a slower/darker version of 'When You Were Mine' performed by a very talented indie artist out of Canada, Chris Koster

let me know what you think

cheers!

I don't usually dig covers, but this was quite interesting.
I'd like to hear this same version without the falsetto.

This is an awesome cover. Definitely on par with Beau's "I Would Die 4 U".
I like covers where ppl make it their own. nod

Wow this is great stuff. It's frickin awesome - love the whole thing. Great job with the keys and strings and stuff. Would love to hear more of the guy's stuff.

I wanted to do a cover of this song - but it was going to be a whole nother song entirely - torch/blues thing. And now I'm more motivated after hearing this!

hmmm That was intresting. So intresting I liked it. Ur right it was very moody and dark, I can dig it though. I thought it was funny when he said "I was so blind, I let U Fuck around. I thought "alright, this cover is kinda hot".
Some people think I'm kinda cute
But that don't compute when it comes 2 Y-O-U.

hey everyone,
that's cool that somebody posted my version of when u were mine, it's from my album that comes out (across canada so far) in february called "Secrets of the Lonely". as u could guess i'm a huge prince fan and a regular visitor to the org. i've done covers of other prince songs in the past like darling nikki, controversy and as mentioned, the beautiful ones, but i always wanted to try a version of when u were mine where the music was as sad as i feel the lyrical sentiment is, so that's what i ended up with.
anyways, thanks for listening and i really appreciate the kind feedback.
if u want to hear more of my stuff or get to know each other check out chriskoster.ca
drop by and say hello, thanks again, see u around the org.
c.
i'm blinded by the daisies in your yard....
