Lowfat's Thao Nguyen-"Moped" (Cover)

This is my first brave attempt of covering Thao Nguyen's song, "Moped" on her "Like the Linen" album. My voice isn't as quite whimisical and pretty as Thao but hey, I took a shot at it. As for guitar tabs, can't help you there since everything was done by ear. Personally, the intricate rhythm is amazing~so forgive me for my lack of justice.

Oh yea, my voice was rather coarse during this recording, so I thought I amplify my voice by sticking an empty toliet roll to my face since I'm savagely poor and can't afford a microphone. But then again, I couldn't really sing because of scotch tape suffocating my face.

If it please you then It was all worth it. Maybe I should just implant a toliet roll in all my other videos. The possiblities are endless my dear Fiz.

[lowfat422]

Yup! It's quite affordable. I can get 12 of these microphones for just under $10 dollars! They sell a lot of these in Walgreens.

This is great. Any chance you could send me the chords??

[fratsdomino]

[acountsandsuch]

5 stars for covering thao

[amelioooo]

Great cover!

Could you send me the chords for this song??? I can't find them anywhere and I can't for the life of me figure them out. Much appreciated!

[Nefarioso]

Nice cover. (Thao, are you watching?)

One thing though, don't be afraid to improvise lyrics sometimes. For instance the line "your girl is good and grown" could just as easily be sung as "you know I'm good and grown". When female singers sing songs written by guys they too sometimes have to make concessions.
