I love it (most of the time)! But like someone said, keep your current style and interpretation, but lower your tone. Like he/she said, you don't sound comfortable in that tone.
@bersanji thanks so much. as pointed out, it was a stretch for me in terms of the key, and i did it long before it was chosen to be the song for the world cup AND it was one of 370 videos i did in the course of a year. am a BIG K'naan fan, and love to do my best with great songs by inspiring artists
@monoen4 Yes! I agree. I mentioned earlier in a post, that I did one song per day for one year to celebrate music, and this was about month 6. i realized as i was singing this, that it is the higher part of the register, which is a bit exhausting, esp. with so much verbage! next version will be in the comfort zone....
dont mind the negativity. you rocked! i am real into k'naan if you like wavin flag (on his troubadour cd) you should check out his dusty foot philosopher cd as well. have a great world cup as well! i am pulling for ivory coast, not many of my friends are pleased feel i am betraying u.s haha oh well. take care
i guess that was good yay it was good but try to be a little quite and not too much of the style that u have not saying its bad but just its just too much but alright bro rlly good love it 8 out of 10
surprised by the amount of negativity! for some background - I am doing one song a day for a year. started april 8 2009, goes to this april. a Kenyan friend turned me on to K'naan last year and i was blown away. This cover is one of 365 songs and was a sign of respect, as imperfect as it is. Wanted people that I know to get introduced to this great African musician. it just recently became the FIFA tune for world cup. great choice! hope everyone has a great world cup...
