Looks like I lied. It got to third on my most played. Any chance of a rerecord in higher quality? I'd pay (to download it, rather than the studio costs :p).
This is fucking brilliant. Although you don't fingerpick, like you said you were going to! :D This is going straight on my phone and my most played list, as well as learning a cover version... of your cover version.
I like your singing. I like your playing. I like your guitar. But, most of all, I like you. The coolest nerd on Youtube. And I mean that in the nicest possible way :D
You turned a song that I rather hated into a song that I can't stop listening to. Seriously, I will paypal you money for even just an mp3 of this specific take of it.
Please for the love of The Goddess, keep singing, and covering your guilty pleasures, as they are ours (mine anyway) as well.
Much love and secret wishful thinking of knowing you in real life.
still very good-i know all about guilty pleasures-i have lots and i like this song-noticed what you said about finger picking and i noticed you move your whole arm when doing it-try using your little finger to stabilize your hand and only move your wrist and picking fingers-takes some getting used to but you'll find it much easier!-hope you don't mind me saying that-i think you're great-hey nice pink xbox controller- mine are black-i'll leave one in the next vid i post just for you lol
I love how you manage to take a really bouncy, sorta angry dance song and make it into a beautifully bittersweet ballad. NEVER apologize for the skill you have.
I dunno, Dynames was pretty awesome too. ;) Maybe I'll just steal you. haha!! Ugh, I'm such a gundam dork. Whatever awesome points you had to begin with (which was quite a bit), have been infinitely increased because of your owning a Gundam. :)
Aww I hate those things tho. I usually do way better without any kind of a pick. You did well tho, just thought some advice might help if you feel like you're struggling.
I don't really have nails and my fingers don't pluck strings as well as they should. I'm much more coordinated with a pick. And that's saying a lot since I'm barely coordinated at all. XD
I could listen to this song all day. Your version that is. You've unwittingly inspired me to get back into singing again, and itching to pick my guitar back up...I may grovel at your cyber-knees to do a cover of one of your versions of a song in the future... <3 Keep up the singing babe. You are Epic and once voice I wouldn't torrent because I would want you to actually benefit from whatever you produce. Much love to ya. ~Winter
I have to say that I love this infinitely more than the original. It just has so much more...soul in it. Whether it's just a hobby or a possible career, never lose that wonderful spark.
GODZILLA. No, not really, the syncing is much improved, which is great considering how distracting it was. The finger picking was fine, but considering how poor I am at guitar myself, it was fairly awe-inspiring on this end.
Anyway, great cover. The nice thing about not listening to a lot of music is that overplayed pop music isn't really overplayed to me. Or heard at all. To be honest, almost all your music, to me, is new to the ears. Considering how good you are at it, it's a good thing.
Oh, and have you written anything yourself that you'd consider sharing? Your covers are great, but it would be interesting to see what you could come up with on your own.
Eight years is a long time - maybe it's worth revisiting it. You've clearly got a really good voice and are musically talented. Obviously that doesn't automatically translate into writing ability, but it can't hurt to give it a try, and it would be great to hear something different. Just a suggestion =]
its amazing how u dont have a record company after you..... i know u only do covers but still if i were a record company i would be all over the opportunity to sign you to a record deal!!!
As much as I'd hate to admit it, the original song gets stuck in my head, for long periods of time. lol But this version sounds fantastic, and I don't feel bad for liking it. Amazing work! :P
And I have the same pink 360 controller. LOL I call it "The Devistator". :)
Actually, my intent was to slow it down and make a ballad out of it. The song has a really pretty melody that you can't enjoy as much when it's a catchy dance song.
May be a bad pop song but you make it worth listening too.

I agree with Pirateguybrush, Writing shouldn't be too hard once you think about it a realize you have something to say.
Of course, I'm an upcoming post-rock artist, which doesn't have many lyrics, if any at all. But that's not the point.
The point is, you sound great. I say go for it!
