Cloudburst Eric Whitacre cover

Its up!! my big project!
vocals, percussion, piano all done by me.
I didn't have all the instruments for the ending, so I had to make do with what I got.
Side note: this is the first ever multitrack I have done in spanish which was a bit of a problem when the only lyrics on google were translated to english, which meant putting the lyrics though google translater, which ended not being very accurate so i had to fill in the unknown with phonetic words. The glock/bells were created by the electric piano preset on my roland but with the chorus taken off.

(btw my hands hurt from all that BLOODY CLAPPING! but its certainly effective tho and incredibly fun to do)

Requested by fatisphat3 =)

What a vocal range! You did a wonder job - I love your interpretation. The images were well selected also. Now - I have to listen to your other covers.

your spanish is more like french. lol again im not sure why you added extra notes but its ok with me, it still fits with the chords. excellent job man!

[Airegin2009]

Excellent!

[TheUntranslatable]

Wow! Great job! And you've got such an amazing vocal range! The pictures go very nicely with the melody btw ;) 

[valeriedickinson]

You MUST be a vocal jazz guy. :)

[Linkwiththesword]

How long did it take you to put this together? lol

[JasmineGoose21]

This is gorgeous! Excellent job! You're an All-in-One Chanticleer! GREAT JOB! How do you get the acoustics that makes you sound as if you're in a cathedral?

Seriously, how the hell do you sing that high?!?

I'm not sure how or why you added extra notes that weren't in the original arrangement.  Your translated Spanish is kind of funny and detracts from the performance. Otherwise this would have been a flawless victory.

Actually, when you said "all percussion by me" I was kind of hoping you'd figured out how to imitate a cymbal, bells, and a thunder sheet. Still pretty cool though!
