Listen to the original again. Listen to Rucker. That's the moment he gives in and gives up. The entire song builds to that moment. I hope you consider this and post a new version. I like your raspy tone and I think you could nail this song.
At 3:39 of this song you have the opportunity and responsibility to show the listener that you understand it. In those 5 seconds you are given the opportunity to show your range, and prove to the listener that you can empathize with the singer. Prove that you understand the lyrics and you are not simply going through the motions. Whether or not Hootie is your style of music, you need to get into the mind of the artist. That is the difference between someone who makes music and listens to it.
this is my FAV song in the whole wide world and right now im going through some rough stuff in life and this song means everything to me! thanks for doin an awesome cover!
@spweasal not everything but it does help dealing with the death of my brother.
rip jessi i miss u sooo much! one day ill see u again. just wish u didnt go and do what u did but u know what im doing lots for u down here and u know where life is taking me and for u i thank u for making me stronger! ill be here for ur babies forever i promise
It's pretty good..You really do have a unique voice. Although if i had constructive criticism to give you it would be to try sing fully out of your mouth and not as nasaly. Keep it up man
YOU FUCKIN ROCK !!!!
