Re: Covering random songs from the archive
After long delay, here ya go...

Umm, apologies, this one didn't come out as grandly as I'd hoped... in laying down the instrumental track, I left out one section of the music, so then I forced the lyrics from that section onto the second half of a verse, and the vocals would be better if I spent another week on it, but I think I just need to upload it as is. Will take a break here to get caught up on the rest of life. The conversion to a more minor key sound is intentional. Lyrics were already posted, so no bonus points this time around...

Re: Covering random songs from the archive
Ooh, I like that one, good work. I just had a chance to add that to the leaderboard.
Re: Covering random songs from the archive
Wow. That was cool. I want to listen again, but with headphones. Thanks for doing a good job, and making it your own thing.

Re: Covering random songs from the archive
Man, there is so much great stuff in the archive. I really enjoyed both versions of iVeg's September. The lyrics are fantastic and really drive home that sad and terrible feeling of summer's end. In the original I really love the guitar lick right after 'August why do always have to end' so pretty and heart string tugging. King Arthur's surf sounding guitars are gorgeous and really fit well with the beach theme. I must have listened to each version 4-5 times today. September has just replaced Day of the Dead as my favorite iVeg song, thanks!

Re: Covering random songs from the archive
Great! Not wrong to mail it, go ahead. Do you have my email or do you want me to PM it to you? Or you could use the fightmaster email I suppose.

Alright, leaderboard updated. Nice work!

Here's your next random song. This seems like a potentially really good match.

Good memory, and 100% correct. And I just heard your cover. Really good!Paco Del Stinko wrote:Hey, alright. I'll kick it around. BLT started here still using tape, I believe, and an Alesis drum machine he called Al.

Re: Covering random songs from the archive
These are the things that I remember, sadly. Don't ask me what I had for lunch yesterday though. Yeah, the song came out ok, could've been better. I had the idea to do a country version, but ended up with the lite rocker here. Glad you got to hear it anyway.
I'll get to the Reist song Sam, just may be a bit. His drumming is way above my skill levels, so I'll have to take a different approach. Thanks for your help!

I'm glad you didn't do a country version. Not that I dislike country, which I do, but because I like what you did.Paco Del Stinko wrote:These are the things that I remember, sadly.

Just signed up for the coverfight, but you might as well give me a fresh one of these, too...

Re: Covering random songs from the archive
I just posted Paco del Stinko's cover of "In The Tank" by Andrew Reist, and updated the leader board. Paco continues his steady climb to the top!

Thanks again, Lunk. I can probably handle another spin before the EIN, when you get a moment. Appreciate your help, man. Cheers!

Re: Covering random songs from the archive
No pass, I'll take it, thanks. Hardest part'll be deciphering the lyrics, probably. I'm fairly confident that I can turn it into something, as years ago I covered a Phunt song. THAT was weird. But I heard it a few months ago and thought it was pretty decent. Thanks again, I'll get it done less than immediately.
