I've been browsing youtube covers of neutral milk hotel for hours now and I have to say that this is an AMAZING nmh cover and you should make more. :D
I feel like your voice would be so good for Engine especially.
so.. i saw the comments on this video and i think its really funny that there isnt as much praise for this as on the other cover videos of this song, because its really the cover ive heard. the point is not to sound exactly like the artist, that would be boring. i think you have a beautiful voice and you did a fantastic job.
You do have a great voice, but I think it would be more suited to softer songs. Neutral Milk Hotel songs usually require a bit more grit. The emotion is there in this song...it just seems misguided and misrepresented. You do have a pleasing voice, just not quite the right one for this sort of music.
@Mielikki7777777 I appreciate your feedback. You're probably right, but I still love singing this song. The melody is so great. I just had to try it. Thanks for listening tho. :)
@Mielikki7777777 the point is a cover is that you add your own interpretation to the song. she can represent the song however she wants, it's her cover. while you hear grit in jeff mangum's voice, she hears a pretty melody, and she wants to make that the prominent aspect of her cover. that's the beauty of covers, you don't have to abide by the original artist's feelings, you can represent your own.
@Mielikki7777777 BTW, if you want to hear a cover with grit, listen to mine and tell me what you think. the people at the open mic said that my voice sounded like shit and they didn't like it. but i feel that jeff mangum would have been proud.
Beautiful voice, and this is one of my favorite songs not just by NMH but by anyone. Well, that whole damn album is genius. I posted a cover of this too (also part 1) and would be honored if you would check it out. I also have 2 new songs that I recorded in Garageband so if you feel like it, I would love if you would watch them . . . I want some feedback.
and you do have a great voice, better than Jeff Magnum's lol
