That was great! Alex has such a wonderful voice you two should do more covers together!!!
Rocks: didn't have enough time to listen at my lunch break but I will when I get home.
Also I think I might try to do Derek as a cover! Gonna try and learn how to play it today!!

I learnt the second part of winters love during the night. It was so fun playing it as the sun rose. I had to sing it a bit different because my vocal range is pretty small. but as I was playing it earlier THIS HAPPENED:
folks, that's a bird on my roof walking in time to winters love. just when you thought you'd seen it all. But I messed up that take halfway through so yeah.

oh man thanks so much bansh
maybe the first time I have ever put my singing voice online (however hushed so no one else in the house hears me hehe)
everything I've ever done has been instrumental, so I figured i'd sneak my voice in here all low key

Dude, seriously lovin your cover. On my 4th listen!
What chords are you using?

hey thanks man! glad you dig it.
As for the chords, I don't know what they're called. I only know the sound they make... when they take a mans life.
jk this is what I was playing from memory
E, Emaj7, E6, Emaj7 (repeat that for the verses)
C, A, C, E (I'm on a plain bit)
Am, E (bridge)
idk if that's exactly what they're playing but it sounded ok to me.

I'm playing and F major and then Gminor but with a 4 in place of the 5. Hope that makes sense! I saw the chords on the usual site for AC stuff. The guitar chords would look like
F
X
1
2
3
X
1
And Gm
3
3
3
5
3
3
I-II is a really pretty chord progression on its own and adding that 4 in there gives it this tug that I love

Nice one popadam! Banshee Beat is deceptively hard to play & sing even tho it's just 2 chords and you nailed it
Vov yours was super cool too. A moodier take on NTB
Just recorded this real quick. So much fun to play

popadam I was grooving hard to that. jelly of your falsetto too. banshee beat is probably my fav AC song if I had to pick along with safer maybe. Actually I dare someone to do a safer cover. I mean I would do it... but I don't have the technology or the steady hand to pull of a procedure like that so HA
anyway I went and done a peacbone cover. it's pretty standard I guess and there's a pause cos I fucked up the lyrics but whatev
