The Killing Moon: Echo & the Bunnymen Cover

[mirath94]

wow

[Firebrand1967]

:'/

[lubogfg]

That was so good. Cant decide if I like it more than erussack version but the bottom line is they are both beautifully done.

[siopold99]

Its a nice version pretty similar to the Nouvelle Vague version though which is, in my opinion, the best track on their cover album.

[leftfield181]

For reals I think I just finished listening to all 26 of your songs (sadly it's now 3am) and all of them were dead on... even in "we're gonna be friends", when u F-ed up I thought it was adorable when u got pissed... Best of luck with ur album, rest assured you sold 1 copy.

[davethecrow]

this is lovely.

[klieserber]

fate.....up against your willllllll

[thebrooke]

yeah it seems counterintuitive, but you want to have it set to mono, either on the interface or within the editing program. In audacity, I end up with a stereo track but with only one channel having sound. I "split stereo track", and then delete the one with no sound and switch the other one to mono.

I'm not sure if your program is that way but it should have some equivalent. Good luck!

[pleasureavalanche]

You should record this, get it pressed on vinyl and make a million bucks! You have a great voice and can play beautifully and I want to hear this on the radio instead of Britney Spears, so do as I say, or else.

[thebrooke]

How can I ever compete with the Britney Spears? She has a teen pop road trip movie and everything. It's hopeless....

Actually, not on the radio yet, or vinyl, yet, but you can get the mp3 at my site (link is in the video description).

[yblad]

id well love a vinyl of yours *hint to make one*

[thehibtones]

there's usually a button that says stereo near the two mic inputs, make sure that button is off.

[sarahstudmuffin]

the video is not great quality, but your singing and playing are fantastic. are you using a capo? which fret?

[thebrooke]

Probably am using a capo, but I don't remember which fret.. Just experiment until the key matches up.

And thanks! :)

[PixiesFanatic]

Great

[cheetofacee]

Damn you have a great voice!

[juanpina07]

That was amazing. Your voice makes the song much more huanting. Great cover and beautiful voice.

[staticavecsilence]

you sound like a purring cat hehe. i like your voice

[LuxX63]

Oh its a wonderfulll voice!!!!!A great song...my love my love!!!!!

[lastkidpicked169]

when i thought you couldn't get any better, you cover this song. you're so amazing.

[PeapodEchoes]

Wow. That's RIGHT on the money. The voice and the guitar go with it all perfectly.

[smokebombhill]

So good.

[kirkwallboy]

You worry about muffled drowned out vocals, but they add atmosphere. That, coupled with the muffled drowned out film quality, add up to an honest grainy splendour.

[thebrooke]

Thanks kirkwallboy and everybody! :)

[taatanohana]

I really loved your performance! sweet voice!

[jtchockey]

When is your cd going to be done? I'm loving your choices, kiddo... very talented.

[valerie1]

Great version of a great song. May I request "All My Colours" by Echo? It's perfect for your voice.

[cosmiquo]

Verry cool !!

beautiful voice.

[TokeyAZ]

realy good girl. Koudos to you

[barberbleach]

great version.. like yr style.. even got the donnie darko feeling:)

[xsntt]

Great choice of song and beautiful performance!!

[MendoKon]

great!

[catospotatoes]

I've got a Pink Floyd request for you, you should do either fearless or san tropez, there both great songs.

[thebrooke]

I'll see what I can do. :)

[trashcanation]

Hi brooke, I saw your video and I'm excited. It's a great cover-version of this song! I had a look on your other videos and I like them. I'm a musician, too. I'm from germany. If you like, have a look at my video. Search for trashcanation ...

[booradleysstuntman]

not sure how i overlooked this one, B, but i did. thanks for rescuing this classic from the clutches of near anonimity. the sound quality of your vids has come a long way since this post. good to hear you've finally managed to issue those glitches & digital cicadas their pink slips. onward shine. :)

[EffinNamesGone]

Yeah, this one was begging you to cover it. Really, really good cover choice for your range. Extra points for the 'retro factor', too.

[brodel77]

wow, really nice rendition. i really like the vocals and the slow tempo. reminded me of mazzy star. I would love to hear a bowie cover from the ziggy stardust or the man who sold the world albums. :)

[thebrooke]

Hmm.. that's one I haven't had requested before. I'll see what I can do. Thanks for listening. :)

[brodel77]

had any requests for any pink floyd songs yet?

[thebrooke]

Surprisingly, no. Which is kind of good since I only really know how to play Wish You Were Here, and if anything's overcovered around here, it's probably that. Not that that's stopped me before I suppose.. Radiohead and all. Why, do you have a particular Pink Floyd request for me? :)

[brodel77]

re: pink floyd, comfortably numb would be nice. know any stone roses songs?

[thebrooke]

Comfortably Numb.. I can certainly try that.

Stone Roses.. don't know anything by them. I don't know if I've ever heard them. only of them.

[brodel77]

the stone roses are amazing. i highly recommend you pick up their first album or the complete stone roses album.

[lphchld]

great cover!

your cover of karma police is great too. have you tried "Exit Music" or "Paranoid Android"? I'm sure you'd do a good job on both.

[ajittffcure]

I loved it. It was very good cover of a classic song by Echo and the Bunnymen. You have a very beautiful, soothing voice and you play the guitar quite well. I was actually reduced to tears when I heard you sing the first verse. Wish you all the best.

[thebrooke]

Aww, that's so sweet. Thank you :)

[CitricCritic]

"Linda Voz" is not a person ;). It's just spanish for "Nice Voice". But anyway, I agree. You have a great beautiful voice. I hope this comment to be shown. 'Cause, I dont know why, sometimes youtube dont let me post any comments!!

[xmelodiex]

actually "linda voz", its portuguese :3

[EffinNamesGone]

Impressive! I really adore that era of music-history. Would it be boorish of me to beg for a Siouxsie cover? Maybe..."Sin in My Heart" or "Happy House"?

[thebrooke]

Thanks peeps!

MW: yes, I'm writing and recording my 1st album this year.. a winter release perhaps. :)

[Bru777]

Linda Voz!!!

[thebrooke]

I'm not familiar with Linda Voz. Send me an mp3! :)

[BananaParty]

You have a beautiful voice, the guitar is also great,but I noticed you made a mistake around 1:16; either the MP3 file skipped or you froze up for about a second. Anyways, good job!

[ModernWoman]

your voice is beautiful :D do you write your own songs? :D

[gratefuldead76]

thank you.

[savethefunk]

keep it coming Brooke, we likes it :)

[rivatoot]

you seem to pick all the kickass songs out there. i love that instead of these run of the mill lame songs from these new bands that people seem to love.

[thebrooke]

thanks.. you guys are being rather generous I think, in this case, but it's appreciated. :)

[dapf5]

well there's that nice smooth voice again,keep it up!

ps check out,clydepetronius here on youtube and you ll see a nice drawing of frank by the movie donnie darko,grtz D

[KrisShred]

Beautiful man ~ always nice to hear your soothing voice :)

[beauandchig]

Great job!

[petageul]

I like it

[evanrkg]

so so so good. wonderful guitar playing and a voice from a dream. :]

[ochretide]

I love it! Your covers are amazing.. really.
