Song: "Larkin Step" (Ling86)

This is me attempting to do Ling86's song "Larkin Step" justice. I really like it, so I hope I don't destroy it! Check out the original, it is thousand times better!

"Larkin Step", by Ling86
----
God he turned and walked away,
Couldn't think of what to say,
When plane engines fall through your roof;
And I broke my knee while walking down the street that I live in,
While noone was passing by.

Life moves along, and it trickles down the cheeks of every beautiful boy;
Time comes along, and it breaks every bone in your spine.

And into the flight of night,
Insomnia strikes, and hopes alight,
Set ourselves up to fall;
So we stargaze and we write down all the things that we'll do;
Fall into the river, our pockets full of stone,
Full of stone.
----

Very Good Job Man . please answer me , how to have a good voice?

[TheRustyAcoustic]

UriNeGuinard;

How do I have a good voice? Not sure, I see my voice as quite average really! Just practice a lot, and write your own stuff a lot of the time, you will find what pitch and scale suits you, and then after that you slowly get better at higher and lower notes... If that makes sense? Lots of practice, and lots of singing what you are good at singing mixed with some harder parts!

Never give up!

Cheers,

Paul

After my first listen, I feel that this cover of "Larkin Step", did not, in any way, dishonour the original.

After my second listen... I like the fading vocal effects on the end of some of the lines. Though it seemed to be used a little too often, and, well, could have be benefited with a little more strength in the vocals in other areas, to balance the overall out.

but I'm still going on to my third listen... and probably a fourth. ;)
