You Can Close Your Eyes - Camden Voices (lockdown virtual choir cover)

As lockdown 2.0 continues to keep us apart from those we love and the things we love, we wanted to bring you another virtual cover of a classic song. This time it’s You Can Close Your Eyes by the incomparable @James Taylor, arranged by Ed Blunt. Originally written for his girlfriend at the time Joni Mitchell, Taylor describes the song as a “secular hymn”. It’s a song that, whilst speaking of loss and separation, aims to soothe and console. We hope you enjoy our version and that our music continues to bring you some calm and comfort.
