I just did a cover of Long Way Down by the Goo Goo Dolls (one of their better songs IMO) ... check it out and let me know what you think. Thanks!

 
The guitar tones seem to be conflicting with eachother a little might want to miss around a little more with eq. It sounds pretty good. Those are real drums? They sound pretty good.

The vocals are good but at times feel out of tune. (mainly in the verse, the chorus vocals sound good)
 
Wicked! Certainly gives the original a run for its money. What's your setup?

This is one of my fav songs (GGD are my favourite band!)
You did a pretty damn good job - Guitar tone is fantastic
 
Never heard this song, but I do like the Goo Goo Dolls. Sounds like this was done professionally, but I can see what DAS is saying.

Still, definitely well above the "home recording" level.
 
Cool, I'm not the biggest Goo Goo fan, but I do like Long Way Down a lot. Your version flat out rocks man. Some great sounds there. The bass is nice on the verse... the vox fit well. The rhythm guitar rocks. I'd try adjusting just the lead guitar a bit since only those parts seem to have any sort of conflict. Nice work! :cool:
