Title: Who is singing this version of "Caroline, No"?
Post by: JK on August 02, 2016, 01:56:41 PM
Odd that the uploader should describe it as "stunning" but not say who's performing it!

He does mention that the video was "cobbled together by Steve Della Maggiora". 

Most frustrating...

I wonder if it may be the uploader who is singing it...

It could be... but what a weird way of presenting it!

Normally someone describing his own musical offering as stunning means that really it's shite. And in this case it's not----those wordless vocal harmonies towards the end are indeed stunning. 

My theory is that it's Steve Della Maggiora, who if my spies have got it right is an artist and a musician----hence the handle artmusicguy. And there are pictures of someone who answers to that name all over the uploader's other videos.

Time I did some work...

I'm a cyberamus when it comes to tune identification programs (most things digital, in fact).

Thanks for trying! I've taken the liberty of emailing SDM (assuming it's the same person)...

Here you go. The uploader has since posted in the Comments that the singer/pianist is David Solomon:
