TMV World Legacy Member Keith Posted January 24, 2014 TMV World Legacy Member Posted January 24, 2014 Overall pretty awesome cover! There are just a couple off notes in the chorus. The last chorus was dead on, the first one has a flat note in it. I don't recall the word though. If you listen close, I am confident you'll hear it. I think the word is "with ".. other than that, sounded pretty brilliant! www.drop-head.com
TMV World Legacy Member MDEW Posted January 24, 2014 TMV World Legacy Member Posted January 24, 2014 I love the tone of your voice in this. Very powerful and expressive. On a lesser note you are pronouncing Rivers as REEvers. Should be closer to R-ih-vers. Same thing with "Fill" vowel should be closer to Ih than EE. I would not mention it but in the past you stated that you wanted to be closer to the english pronunciation. I like it as is and would rather your native tongue be present anyway. Awesome production. Loved that scream at the beginning. "You need a strong foundation to reach the heights."
TMV World Legacy Member berniemcpeak Posted January 24, 2014 TMV World Legacy Member Posted January 24, 2014 Kicked a**! Yes, you were a bit flat through the first half but your energy and overall performance rocked! This is one of my favorite Extreme songs and you did it justice. I was going to post my own cover of this a while back but I couldn't find a decent backing track. The instrumentation was excellent. Was that a backing track or was it you as well?

TMV World Legacy Member Jugulator Posted January 25, 2014 TMV World Legacy Member Posted January 25, 2014 Cool. I like both your clean and raspy voice. http://www.youtube.com/user/IgorJugulatorZotov
Felipe Carvalho Posted January 29, 2014 Author Posted January 29, 2014 bernie, check your mail! Thanks Jugulator!!
TMV World Legacy Member Singingnewbie Posted January 29, 2014 TMV World Legacy Member Posted January 29, 2014 I rarely listen to cover songs i dont know but the "extreme" word catched me, i feel deceived now :mad: ! Didnt go crazy with the song but it was fun. Seems like the song was made for your voice, excellent match. Great singing!
Felipe Carvalho Posted January 30, 2014 Author Posted January 30, 2014 ahaha singing Im sorry, did not occur me it would look like that. Now that you said it does look like a marketing banner hahaha, so great! Thank you for your words and for listenning .
TMV World Legacy Member berniemcpeak Posted January 30, 2014 TMV World Legacy Member Posted January 30, 2014 bernie, check your mail! Thanks Jugulator!! Got the file, thank you! I'll try to get it recorded today and post it up :-)
TMV World Legacy Member gno Posted February 1, 2014 TMV World Legacy Member Posted February 1, 2014 Great job on this one. Great use of distortion / grit - very tasty. Powerful vocal performance. I like the vocal processing on this one - nice reverb and the right amount. What kind of reverb are you using? Convolution? My Music:http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=897808
Felipe Carvalho Posted February 1, 2014 Author Posted February 1, 2014 Hey geno, thanks man! Its the same reverb I use on pretty much everything, this set of IR files: http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=235589 Its convolution, the one I use most (and also used in this one) is the "bright plate".
TMV World Legacy Member gno Posted February 1, 2014 TMV World Legacy Member Posted February 1, 2014 That's interesting - I use an impulse called Bright Plate too for all my faster rock songs. I can't remember where I got it. It may be the same one you're using. I like it's transparent sound and it doesn't color the voice. My Music:http://www.soundclick.com/bands/default.cfm?bandID=897808
TMV World Legacy Member ronws Posted February 1, 2014 TMV World Legacy Member Posted February 1, 2014 Poor Gary Cherone, he is never going to live down how well Extreme can do ballads. And how lovely his voice is on ballads such as this and "More than Words Can Say." I don't have anything to add to the technical critique of others. As for pronunciation, your accent doesn't bother me. Then again, when I sing, I sound european, on american songs. So, who cares? If the audience likes it, so be it.
Felipe Carvalho Posted February 3, 2014 Author Posted February 3, 2014 geno I think plate is a very common choice on lead vocals on the more pop/rock material since it leaves the sound "upfront". If you use a hall or room simulation you risk sounding as if you are too far away from everything. The bright is probably just the eq setting used on the original unit. ronws Thanks man! I will keep it in mind about the accent, trying to modify it can do more harm than good. :)
