Newton Faulker

[Ben]

Alright lads

Been listening to a lot of Newton Faulkner lately, his voice is great tbh along with his sensational guitar playing skills Just wondering if any of you guys like him and what are your favourite songs of his?

 

[Jamie F]

I like Newton a lot.
Always loved Dream, Catch Me but nothing from him fails to impress me

 

[eddlad]

Personally I think he is awful.

Heard one song I liked, can't remember its name though.

 

[bcfc]

I like badman XD

Epic lyrics.

 

[Ben]

Dream catch me, Gone in the morning, Teardrop and Badman are my favourite songs by him. His ability to use the guitar to effectively make the sound of a drum impresses me too.

 

[Danny]

What type of Music it is.? Don't think I've heard of him.

You may like Kaki King then. She uses a similar technique.

 

[Dunc]

Not a fan of his to be honest.

His big ginger dredlocks scared me off.

Acoustic
That type of thing. Have a little listen on youtube Dan

Thanks Eddlad, I'll take a look in a bit.

 

[Danny]

Aha.. I remember him now, just had a listen to 'Dream Catch Me' And remembered it. Yeah he's rather good, going to look at some of his other stuff now.

[eddlad]

I had these sort of songs in mind when suggesting her to Newton Faulkner fans.

YouTube- Kaki King - Love Stoned "Justin Timberlake" Cover

YouTube- Kaki King - Close to me

 

[Ben]

Yeah tbh she is pretty good, Close to me is very good

 

[Redders]

Didn't mind Dream Catch Me but can't say I have heard much else by him.

 

[LionelPienaar]

Can someone explain to me the link between that close to me song, and Lady Soveriegn - So Human. I am 90% sure there is some sort of rip off there.

The Kaki King song is a cover of The Cures 'Close to me'

Lady Sovereign heavily samples it in her 'song', So Human.
