Hey knowledgeable friends,

If you have some spare time / are interested have a listen to this.......

Ms Jackson

Its a cover of the vines song which is a cover of that outKast song.
I played and sang it all and it was recorded at Tukkis' Home rec 'studio'.

Any comments / suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

thanks again

Hey Yio....

....Ive never hear the vines cover, but Ive always really liked the Outkast song. Since i never heard the Vines cover, I cant tell wether or not you took your interpretation from them. Either way, its very cool. I really like the vocs in this......guits are nice too.

ola yiordanaki!
I also know just the Outkast version, so I cannot compare it with the Vines one.
- the vocals at 3:07 are quite overlapped, maybe panning the 2nd and 3rd voice?
- I like the two guitars, though I wouldn't let the one with the Cure-effect go over the entire song
- have you planned to put some drums on it?

Very good vocals, nice mix!
 
I never heard the song at all so I'm more ignorant than any of you. :D

I like it! A little too much flanging maybe...but just a little. Also...I'd like to hear more presence on the acoustic.....make it stick out a bit more.
Nice playing and singing. I don't know if you've captured the original 'cause I never heard it but your version is cool.
 
wow, I really liked this alot. Nice tune. vocals were very good, and I liked the synth part as well. tight work!

i like it. Muy cool. Are the Vines real big in Aus? FFigured maybe they were. HA. Sorry. Anyways, I like it a lot. VEry mellow, to suit my mood right now. I think the wierd phasy guitar stuff gets a little annoying, but it dissappears from my mind after a while. I liked it man, good job.
 
Hey,
I have heard the vines cover of it and you sound really really close to theirs. Good job.
 
I don't know either version of the song at all, but this is very good.

I agree with all the above stuff - brighten the acoustic, tame the flange/phase/chorus, pan the backing vocals at the end. But that's just details.

Great song, cool harmonies, nice simple arrangement. Laid back and easy feeling.

You've got a nice voice, and you've done a great job on this one. It goes in my "keepers" folder.

Cheers

I'm a little late on this, nice tune. I didn't know the vines had covered this so I downloaded it. I liked your version better. Just for fun I recorded a drum track to it, just kinda let your song play and I improvised along to it.
 
DAMN!!!!!!!! that was some smooth vox work !!!!!!!!!

NICE!!!!!!!!

peace

Sorry fellas, Ive been away on holidays, just got back.

THANKYOU very much for the replies and comments!!

as some of you know, i basically tried to stick as close as possible to the vines version.

Guernica - thanks for listening

groovejunkie - no drums, just this., thanks for the suggestions

Lt. Bob - thanks, how do you propose i could make the acoustic stick out more? - we had to cut a little bass out of the acoustic cos there was some really weird low harmonic happening that overtook the mix - so that might be what is wrong.......

ZPphreak - thanks for listening - whos guster??

Duey - thankyou 2.

agentpenguin185 - hey, the vines arent as popular as they should be in australia - they sorta hit it "big" in america before anyone here took notice. thanks!!~

ZPphreak - thanks for listening - whos guster??

DUDE! Guster is a 3-man-band and the percusionist just simply ROCKS. It's a style of their own I'd say. they guy plays congos on stage with his hands taped up. He just goes nuts. then there's a bassist and a guitarist/lead singer. They've got some really great music. I reccomend "FaFa", "Fall into you", & "So Long". The vocalist has a nice delicate sound. a true funband. I found out about them when they opened for Barenaked Ladies here in Atlanta, GA. I reccomend Guster's music to all of you guys. It's really something that you can groove to. Good-feeling Music.

Peace
 
ok, thanks

I will try and look for some stuff of theirs.
