Luke,
I don't/can't/am not allowed to sing. I'll just enjoy them listen.

Do you really think Greg would do that? And would it really work?

 

[WhiteStrat]

Okay...here's my stab at it. And like I said, even though this in the singing forum, I don't sing (except when I'm alone!). So, as always, my guitar is my voice:

 

[rayc]

White STrat - lovely tone as usual. A cool take on the melody - I also enjoyed the arrangeemnt.

 

[WhiteStrat]

Thanks Ray! I appreciate the listen and the input!

 

[sgia]

Just guitar and vocals. Love the song. My kids call it the Shreck song....

Here's my €.02

Nice. Real nice.

That is great.
Sounds just like Shreck or maybe Donkey.

Is this song in one of those Shreck movies?

 

[Lukesteele]

Lol. I don't know about that. I've never heard this song before.

Lol. I don't know about that. I've never heard this song before.

It would totally work as either early, or later period Ramones. I can almost hear them singing it.
