Lavender Town Pokémon Guitar Cover

MP3: http://www.mediafire.com/?2uvhp0eub61qw9m

As my last few covers before my break kept coming up, I realized that I hadn't given you guys a Pokémon cover in a really long time. So I decided to break out one that I've been dying to do for a long time. Lavender Town is an iconic song from the game, so needless to say, I was a bit nervous about tackling this one. Being so simplistic, it was tough to make a full cover out of it. At times I felt I needed to add a bit more to it, like harmonies and other flashy things to keep it full sounding. I hope you guys enjoy it, I didn't really have a lot of time to work on this one this week, so I apologize for that.

The arrangment was a real challenge. I definitely felt that I haven't done acoustic guitar in a while so I had to bring that back in this one. However I had this huge sounding climax to the song in my head with the harmonies and everything, so I put it down. At first it sounded like I had completely changed the song to the point where you can't even hear the original elements, but because of lack of time, I left them in. I hope you guys get the nostalgic feeling from the cover still even though I roughed it up a bit. :)

So this is my 51st cover on YouTube. Which means one more marks the completion of my One year of weekly video game covers! In one week, I will be releasing my final weekly video for a while. I know a lot of you are dreading it, but unfortunately, there is a lot of stuff I need to get caught up with as far as life goes. So next week I'm giving you the most requested song I've ever recieved, with a twist as far as the video goes. I guess you guys will just have to wait and see. :D

[Aesop534]

Hey do you ever have tabs laying around for some of your arrangements?

[FamilyJules7X]

@Aesop534 Done a few, not for this one though. I hope to do more tutorials though. :)

[StryderHeap]

What's the scale used for your solo?

[FamilyJules7X]

@StryderHeap Not sure actually, I kind of just played whatever sounded good. Usually I'll figure that stuff out but I didn't have a lot of time.

[Monfernosux22]

Do you believe in Ghosts? No? Well that white hand on your shoulder, it's not real...

Haha the top 2 comments are "Marowak mom disliked this video..." and "I did indeed. :)" They're unrelated, but at first I thought the second was a response to the other!

[40088922]

the beggining is even mo' creepy than da original

[anteater219]

i suddenly feel like sawing off my legs.

[ugxsan]

I like this song a lot, actually. It's creepy and the most off thing in the Poke'mon universe, but it sounds better than a lot of towns (and that's saying something)
