Disarm - Smashing Pumpkins (cover)

[nwilwayco]

thank you.

[caintapi]

Great voice and a good take on this beautiful song.

[eddiecidarmaltbev]

pleasant sound...better than the album version

[ChuckNorrisRules94]

you are awesome! keep it up!!

[smashingradiohead]

if u dont mind a comment... delete if u want... the singing is great but your guitar right hand doesnt seem to know what its doing... tell u what.... you sing for me and ill do the guitaring ;) will sound great, cause my strumming technique on this particular song is the best i've heard (including all youtube vids, except for Billy Corgan himself doing it of course)

[tajmahollie]

@smashingradiohead I had just learned to play this (when I say that, I'm talking 30 minutes prior) when I made the video. I know the strum pattern is a little scattered, but I only learned this song because I love to sing it lol. I appreciate your input though. :)

[BJplaysmusic]

This is beautiful!!!!!!! *subscribes*

[FfUZZ4RC4DE]

your guitar sounds like heaven

[20056997]

ha corragio pero e brava ,,,,

[HeKillzthaJezta]

you are absolutely gorgeous and your voice matches! you did an awesome job! ever consider covering any stabbing westward?

[kickikrillep]

It was good but it didnt seem like you were used to singing and playing guitar at the same time? Or maybe you just liked to play it that way... it was still good though...

[CatholicLegionary]

great cover :D I love it.

[LunaticReason]

I think if Melissa Ethridge where to do a Smashing Pumpkins cover it would sound something like this. I think thats the voice im hearing. Its driving me crazy, I dont mean to be offensive. I know its a lesbo singer songwriter type singer. Very earthy smokey tone.

[theratfarmer]

hmmm, a horny chic.

[hijkul]

Very nice interpretation, I might cover this too now.

[mrsgerardway1335]

Great job!

[Supaduck0]

you look a little like billy, too (i dont mean you look like a man... kirsten dunst looks like him too lol)

[largetree]

i liked it a lot.

[IamS4t4N]

I totally love this version!!!!!

[vampirodrako]

mm....¡¿¿¿¿???

[Loop1812]

awesome honey, i play guitar and its higher pitched than the original but ur voice matches it. good job

[kingofkaoss]

love the take on the song ... dont listen to the haters they are expecting a cover to sound exactly the same as the original but anyone would be struggling to touch the pumpkins sound

[PatMeruseye]

nice interpretation of a BEAUTIFUL song!!!

Like ur version a lot.

I also did a cover of this! - yeah...please check it out and leave me ur opinion.

Thanx

Pat

[doodlesanc14]

I love it!!! It was great and you could tell there was a lot of emotion put into the song, don't listen to the fuckers who think it's cool to bitch out on the Internet, face to face with you they wouldn't say half the shit they say right now. And it's obvious you are much more intelligent than the people who spell half of their words wrong and can't even make coherant sentences. They just jump from one stupid idea to the next.

Keep doing covers an be who you are.

[PatMeruseye]

AWESOME!

Such a beautiful song, isn't it?!

I also did a cover of "Disarm" ----- so yeah would be very cool if u would check it out and leave me a comment!!!

Keep rocking

cheers

Pat

[livinglandfill]

very talented!

[doors36]

If i get chills down my spine then you got the job done:)

[0LittlemissLola]

hey, you didn't kill the song, its quite a good cover.

[detoursound]

Cool video ! Check our version of Disarm :) . Cheers !

[afhevh]

I like this; different style cover of a great song. Thanks for posting.

[changobilly22]

no, the strumming is off and its not the chords i would have chosen

but hey, you made it your own i guess

you should put that down though, so people would shut up, like Interpretation instead of cover : )

[tajmahollie]

@changobilly22 well, "cover" doesn't mean "copy"... you don't look up cover songs so you can hear it exactly the same as the original... you're looking for a new take on it. so it's a little redundant to label it as an "interpretation" versus a "cover". I don't really care if people bitch, because it's what I enjoy doing, and they don't have to listen if they don't like it.

Annnyywayyy...

/endrant

:)

[changobilly22]

@tajmahollie touche, but, its never really exactly the same, so cover to me is more, a different artist using tabs similar to the original with the rhythm and tempo about the same too, interpretation is more like, of the top of my head Cafe Tacubas version of the song Dejate Caer by Los Tres

and i know i technically contradicted my first statement

so then yea, it would be a cover, although im pretty sure Iha didnt use a capo

[tajmahollie]

@changobilly22 lol, it drives me nuts how many people will bring up the fact that I'm using a capo. it's just an accessory! it's an easier way to bring the key up to my vocal range, that's it... that aside, I do appreciate where you're coming from, and I'm glad you can actually put logic behind what you're saying, instead of just being one of the jerks who says that I "ruined" the song.

[changobilly22]

@tajmahollie haha, no, i totally agree with you on the capo and it helped with your vocals, its just different you know? and yea, i hate it when people act like idiots when they dont even know half the stuff their talking about

you didnt kill the song, you made it your own : )

[tajmahollie]

@changobilly22 thank you :)

it's very refreshing to talk to someone with more than half a brain on here

[ZealotsofMercury]

@changobilly22

dude capo is used to match vocal range all the time, there's nothing wrong with using a capo, and in fact if you can't sing the range and don't use one you probably wont have desirable results

[changobilly22]

@ZealotsofMercury i know it is, and i know there's not. i was just stating that it was weird. It was different, not bad, but different. You should read the rest of the convo : )

[Michaelralte]

@tajmahollie

I dont see anything wrong here..nice cover

[iamdhump]

@tajmahollie dont listen to them. half of them cant even play "POSERS" you sound great. do your thing girl. shine like the star you are.

[vpdp0001]

@tajmahollie If you want to argue semantics, cover means you are simply doing another artist's song, hopefully note for note or as closely as possible; interpretation would mean you're completely doing it your way. I don't really care either way how it's labeled when it comes down to it. And to anyone complaining about the capo, study a little music theory and get off of guitar hero lol.

/camp

:D

[caintapi]

@tajmahollie I totally agree with you with that one. A cover is an artist's own rendition or version. I want to hear other's interpretation of it. Sometimes theirs is better than the original.

[TiFFiKiNZxoxo]

rofl.

[adictpunk88]

yeah ive seen your videos before actually

[thunderpants0007]

Love your voice, perfect choice of song for your vocals

[Vlam1ck]

[juliaaaa0x]

[wvadam]

[mightysonofa]

[seasonfreecom]

[5200177]

this is not disarm this is quiet

[vinsim74]

Very nicely done! ;)

[spaceshipdinosaur]

grow up faggets

.this was pretty good...just wish you sang a little louder.

[telekenisis9]

i taught myself this and sang it for a music project i was only twelve and i got laughed at for singing i used to be a little boy!

[FHFinc]

I like it and for all the people who were joking about "I used to be a little boy" ITS NOT HER FAULT ITS THE SONG! JEEZ!

[DotaPudgeOnly]

You used to be a little boy?

[FaKeSkAtEr972]

haha

[guerralinares]

just like a dream...

[xiphan]

Nice vocals, but I think you're guitar playing was a little too harsh, maybe soften it up a bit? Still, very nice.

[Blue24U]

That is one awesome acoustic guitar :) and such vocal tallent, sweet vid :) thanks for posting sexy.

[xoazaria]

wooow i want to cry , its beautiful

[jamiemasterwilliams]

that is a nice interpretation!

[gocatdave]

Very good!

[shanelly94ant]

this is the BEST disarm cover i evr heard

[djpoppyt]

i like it, you put an original spin on it and it sounded pretty good.

[Kaizen63]

AWESOME! ^__^ I wish you would do it one more time, but "feminizing" the lyrics a little.

[joeysixtysix]

Nice job, great vocals, pretty lady too.

[mythicalman669]

nice voice.....i kind of like the strumming.........its kind of your own wich pretty cool

[SeanHG33]

Great voice! And the way you sang it did sound a lot like the original, really did it justice.

[fenderacolyte]

mm, not bad but i think you could improve the strumming.

[tajmahollie]

the strumming is what gets me for this song. the reason I really wanted to cover tho was because I love the vocal melody.

thanks for listening :)

[xxthedunedainxx]

i just do the song with a bunch of down strokes, kind of ramone like strumming i gues, its pretty simple ~.~ but annoying to nail, and memorize the lyrics and all that crap haha

[xMantis420]

hi there! yea. tonight tonight and disarmed have this double time strummin pattern wich means it goes 2ice as fast as the downbeat. hard to explain u just gotta feel it..tap ur feet or ur hands to it and try to do the faster rhytm...once again hard to explain :O sorry! awsome to see girls jammin songs like this thO! few and far between! coool , good luck on the song!

[xmechanicaltoasterx]

i think you did really good :D

[crisalves1977]

amazing - perfect

[Brock339]

Fucking AWESOME!!!

[glennwith2nns]

simon says: this is like watching someone unable to pat their head and rub their belly at the same time

[MIKEiTECH]

Overall good. You had a bit of trouble with the strumming pattern, but that's by far the hardest part of the song.

[majicstargirl]

Wow, your voice is a lot different then I expected...I sounds like the real version kinda...idk, nice job though!! Everyone i've seen uses dif. chords than i do...but it looks easier and sounds the same, so i should check it out. Good job!!

[spawnofhellandsatan]

A bit weird with you saying you used to be a little boy, lol.

But all the same a good cover.

[CommanderCool4life]

come on girl, you weren't that bad at all... actually i would LOVE to hear more from you. and i don't care if it's some cover or some stuff you just made up. you have a lot of talent, believe me

[uzzidechicago]

jajaja dammm girl you rock!!!! jajaja funny face at the end.  keep it up

[wasssabii]

you know it's ppl like you that make me wish i had more time to practice...good shit dude.....peace

[Ceryni]

I think this is my favorite cover of yours, your voice is very beautiful ^-^ 5/5

[octivarium579]

i like it, i like it

[kleutertjes]

Good stuff. You make it sound like it was written for a woman.

[GamerAnon]

Nice cover, yes I saw the strumming change a bit, and I have the same problem with most songs :( Thats why its hard for me to play songs entirely based on strum patterns that just melodies, ; ; I wish I was at least as good as you lol

[helio123]

Horrible!!!!!!!!

[cristobalvallejosv]

AWESOME!!!!!!!

[cyrax4d4]

id hit

[ChaosFerTheKids]

You have a wonderful voice.

[shanelly94ant]

she has a beautiful voice(no homo)

[Qwaarf]

NO! NOT Evanescence!!!! You have a great voice! Stay away from shit e.g. Evanescence!!!!!

[heavyonit]

Maybe it's just me, but i'm not sold on the strumming pattern. It sounds a tiny bit cluttered during the chorus. Apart from that, very very nice.

[Huzzagh]

i concur

[tajmahollie]

For whatever reason, some songs just make my hands do retarded-non-rhythmic things. Like this one lol. I just can't seem to keep it going in the same pattern. but whatever. I tried :)

[spoukas]

Yes!! Haha ! Exactly ! I thought the only one lol

Wtf is the reason this happens ?!

I mean its like you cant control them..

[joe11121]

nice voice and playing, soothing.

[sevenender]

wow

this is great version

i love it

you got a wonderfull voice

greets

ender

[mcrmusicwhore]

your amazing!

[sooprcool]

you sound great, ya know, you're the only person on youtube that plays the right chords! lol

[tbskebab]

Nice approach to this song, and nice voive!

[spooniospoonio]

lovely..inspired me to learn to play disarm properly...x

[skatex95]

Hey, very nice vocals and great a guitar. And dont lison to thes haters ther just retards.

I subed and ***** star rateing ;]

[tajmahollie]

:) thanks

[MzrtLegacy]

Very nice. Don't listen to the haters. It's one thing to criticize; it's quite another to str8 up talk s**t! I think you played it very well and your version has the elements that a good cover needs. Way to make it your own.

[tajmahollie]

thanks a lot. I know I get a lot of neg feedback on this, but honestly, it's my cover, so what I think matters, not much else. thanks for the support though :)

[laffo16]

i like it v much

[moonheadholland]

crap singer and guitar was horrific

[chvipergts]

Maybe you should give it a shot since you're so much better.

[moonheadholland]

mate i could play that better with two broken arms and sing it better with a mouth full or marbels. it is honestly horrific

[chvipergts]

To each their own, Billy Corgan does not exactly have the best voice in the world either. We all have our defects, but I thought it was a decent cover.

[Kuromadoushi]

Prove it.

[dezisgod]

you're just jealous

[tajmahollie]

And I totally get that, I just am not primarily a guitar player, so I don't look at things that way. But yeah, this is just for fun. I'm not trying to impress anyone, just trying to share something I love to do, you know?

[samdathi]

I didn't like what you did with the strumming. What makes this song unique is that constant downward strum. It loses it's identity the way you do it. Still a nice effort though

[tajmahollie]

well I picked this song for it's vocals, and fell a little short on the guitar, but I knew that when I posted it. I know it's not perfect, it's just a song I enjoyed singing. And just so you know, I NEVER post a song based on the guitar line, so please don't judge on that lol. I"m not a super great guitar player, so I can't promise any greatness there. I do try though. :)

[samdathi]

You miss my point. I wasn't criticizing your inherent playing. I was commenting that you have changed the strumming pattern and in doing so have taken the heart out of the song. All you have to do is strum with a constant downward pattern (like in the actual song) and then your version will be good.

[tajmahollie]

I understand the point you were making, but my point is that I don't focus on the guitar when I'm playing, so it's easy for me to lose what I'm doing, such as a strum pattern. So I get what you were saying, so yeah.

[doofus0123]

Excellent stuff!

[comedown11]

good work!

see my smashing's cover also

[BreachOfPeace]

very nice cover

[glitterlip]

this is beautiful!

you did great :)

[natdrip]

wow good job!!

[raaqi]

good work. i can see you enjoy the song, which is what matters... i enjoyed it. keep going & i hope your passion never fades.

[AeroplaneFliesHigh22]

Sounds Good with a female voice good job.

[shaggz20022002]

Capo should be placed right up behind the fret for clearer pitch, good job tho

[tajmahollie]

actually, my uncle, who'd played for 40 some odd years and owns a recording studio and what not thinks just the opposite, but I guess it all depends on the guitar itself, right? personally, I can't tell a difference haha but thanks for the comment :)

[shaggz20022002]

hehe well i guess it just comes down to a matter of opinion then!

[Thomasesquire]

I was thinking of covering this song but theres no point after seeing this!

That was absolutely amazing!

Your a beautiful singer and girl ;)

[jimmyjack321]

No Capo But otherwise good job

[tajmahollie]

I capoed so it'd be a little higher for me to sing

[tysonletang]

i know what you mean.. i was gonna do the same thing but i tuned it down instead so i could play other things too.. and opens funner lol. nice job.

[Mizarcito]

I don't like the rythm, but your voice is great

[Guitarhero75]

Very impressed with the singing :) Guitar was good, strumming pattern was...different :P

[d00deth]

You used to be a little boy? :P

[tajmahollie]

shhhhh who told you?? ;)

[adrianos33]

So far the best! Way to take something and make it yours :)

[hermesvg]

hey you sing really cool!! And that version is awesome!!!! Everyone just imitates!!

Congrats!

[BillysEvilCuzan]

so many peple cover this song but dse anyone realy know what its about.............

[tajmahollie]

it's always made me think abortion. and the thing about any type of art, including music and lyrics, is that the audience chooses what they want to get out of it, it doesn't really matter what the intention of the song is, if it still touches someone in some way, despite what the original meaning of the writer is. :)

[bostonrobcube]

is the cd skippin?? oh its that shitty guitar playing!!

[mfolio]

Beautiful Voice! Keep the strumming pattern uniform and run it with a metronome.

[ogiodogwood]

i saw/heard most of the covers, yours is the best...

[tajmahollie]

:) thank you

[diiddoo]

good job!!

[Mephala117]

a very beautiful voice:) and hey, you didn't messed it up that much, hardly visible. My opinion is that you can put in that great voice of yours more determination and feeling -at least on this song-.

Thumbs up! :)

[tajmahollie]

:)

thanks so much...

and this song I learned on a whim, and never really got into.. so yeah.. didn't feel it like I feel some other songs I do

thanks again!

[liquidradiance]

Impressive. Heartfelt and tender.

[okapi81]

supergirl

[staindlibra]

Awesome job, and your very beautiful as well :)

[tajmahollie]

aw, thank you <3

[redbomb66607]

Wow i love ur hair ! and u have a beauitful voice !! nice share the pumpkin Luv !!!

[tajmahollie]

xD

thanks so much

[Corganschild]

Nice to see a girl doing this for once. :) Good job. :)

[shatteringglass]

very nice! I liked it, your voice goes well with the song.

[Ataraxia27]

Hey, that was really nice... whatever about messing up. I thing it's impossible to play and sing at the same time (for me at least) :)

Great job
