This cover was recorded between 30 August 2010 and 1 September 2010 as part of The Fuego Series, released early 2011. NO drum replacement or triggering was done in this series, what you hear is just a mixed version of a 100% acoustically produced track.
______________________________

Maybe I should be honest and just say that I think Lights is one of the cutest human beings alive. I can't imagine how so much cuteness can be fit into one body. Fanboy session over.. EPIC song! First time I heard this I already had the groove in mind that I knew I wanted to play in the verses, aswell as the side-snare groove for the choruses.

I sent the song off to Justin Pearson just to hear if he'd be interested in recording some demo guitar tracks for me, just to get an idea of what he could come up with.. and he wrote that SICKKK riff for the last chorus. We worked on the track a bit more, and the rest of the riffs and tracks were born. SUCH a talented guitar player!
