sorry but this is terrible. you can maybe sing, but this song shouldnt sound like a pop song. go sing mariah carey or celine dion.

@jonthedonable The whole joy of doing covers is that you can create an entirely new song by putting your own spin on it. If I wanted to do mariah or celine, I would. Instead, I want to do something interesting. No adaptation will fly with everyone though, which I understand. Have fun listening to your ACDC, pure and untampered. :)

@10sparrows ok i listened to it again, and it is actually better than i first thought. im man enough to say that, yeah it is pretty decent. its just so different from the original. maybe i judged too quickly.

[10sparrows]

@jonthedonable Oh jon. :) thanks. you are indeed a man. I'd like to think I still managed to put a lot of feeling into the song without shouting. And I respect your detest for pop music.

hey girl, you are really talented, have a great voice, but thisversion of the song sucks^^

[ReFlad]

@10sparrows oh god my hers are bleeding live acdc alone they are pure hard rock not glam pop

[jonthedonable]

@10sparrows yeah, i dont like fake musicians who do it just to get fame or money, i like real artists, and it annoys me that little guys like justin bieber are famous and so many real talented people are not,i never gave youre song a chance at first.its just so different,and i judged it too quickly,i can tell it wasnt meant to be like a pop song now.you done a great job.i wish u all the best for 2012. im sure u will be successful.

ps.i love a girl who can play guitar ;) high five! lol

[jonthedonable]

@10sparrows yeah, but i love acdc and the song is a shouty kinda song, putting a lot of feeling into it, it just seems like its a pop version of that particular song, and i cant tolerate pop music. no disrespect. youre obv a great singer and can play guitar which i respect. i just dont like the way this song is done. its nothing personal. im sure you would have many other songs that would blow me away but yeah, not this particular song.
