Danny’s song

By petra / December 8, 2025

My cover of Danny’s Song (Kenny Loggins, 1971 from the album Sitting in) is a warm, heartfelt tribute to love, family, and the quiet joys that make life meaningful. Written for his brother Danny after the birth of his first child, the song celebrates the idea that true happiness isn’t found in wealth or perfection, but in companionship and hope for the future. With its gentle melody and earnest lyrics, it has become a timeless ode to simple, enduring love. Joe asked us to sing a song from any singer with Ken in the name. I’ve chosen this one for the good memories. (more…)

Nowhere Man

By petra / November 24, 2025

Here’s my cover of Nowhere Man by The Beatles. It’s written mainly by John Lennon and released in 1965 on the album Rubber Soul. It was one of the first Beatles songs not about love or romance. Instead, it reflects Lennon’s feelings of isolation and uncertainty. The lyrics describe a man who lives in his own world, disconnected from reality “making all his nowhere plans for nobody.” (more…)

Because

We made a cover of Because for our friend Arturo, who passed away recently. He was a big Beatles fan. I did the three different vocal parts myself, and Hans produced it all and created the video. Because was originally sung by The Beatles and released on the 1969 album Abbey Road. Arturo, this one is for you. (more…)

Hey there Delilah

By petra / November 16, 2025

My cover of Hey There Delilah by Plain White T’s (2006) . It tells the story of a long-distance relationship, sung from the perspective of a guy reassuring Delilah that their love is strong despite the miles between them. It became a huge hit worldwide, known for its gentle melody and emotional, conversational lyrics.This song also really called for a harmony, so why not? Hans made the video again.It was Sue’s choice for the WSC. (more…)

Let it be

By petra / November 7, 2025

My cover of Let It Be, with me accompanying myself on piano. It had been on my list for quite a while, but always had to make way for other projects. Richard’s choice this week on singeo was a great opportunity to finally record it. I’ve put the chords into iReal Pro as a guide for rhythm and playing – it’s a bit slower than the original. 

Let it be is written by Paul McCartney in 1970. Inspired by a dream about his late mother, he turned her comforting words  “let it be”  into a message of hope and peace. It was the title track of the band’s final studio album, marking a bittersweet farewell to the most influential group in pop history.
