Something A Little Different: Duet Cover of Thinking Out Loud


Recommended Posts

  • Moderator & Review Specialist

I have something a little different this time. I've been working on my improvisation a lot lately. I did this cover with somebody else and tried to fill in some of the silence and add to the song while they were singing. As some people may know, this is a pop song. I'm not really a pop guy, so I put my own spin on it.

Don't get creeped out that some little kids are singing a love song with me, LOL. I sang first and they joined me :ph34r:

Not any worse than kids singing along with the Jackson 5, the Osmonds, or the DeFrancos, though you may not have heard of them. But they were popular in southern California, about 50 something years ago.

 

Sounded cool, to me.

 

You had some Neville-esque quality going on there.

Yeah, I've heard of the Osmonds. I just thought it was cute that they were singing along, even though it might be a strange song to sing along to.

 

Thank you. Tried to put in a few different elements here.

 

Who's Neville? I've heard that name before.

This is hilarious and I'm getting a huge kick out of it. Your voice is badass but it sounds on the verge of laughing with these random kids joining in. I love the depth of your timbre. Anyway, I can't even think of how to critique your voice cause I keep laughing. So while I'm in a good mood, I'll respond on other subjects:

 

Aaron Neville is most famous for this song, he has a great falsetto as do you:

 

 

My favorite song with a reference to children singing (although the choir may or may not include) is this version of Heaven Help Us All

 

 

The most amazingly bad song I've ever heard including children is not yours dude, The Clash actually released it for real on Sandinista covering their own song:

 

 

Ok.... Now that the children are out of my system. I'm going to try to listen and critique again.... 

 

Nope, hahaha, I started laughing again. You're an artist, you got an emotional response from me. :D

I thought it was adorable. Almost like a chorus class was going on.

 

Thanks, Ronws, for bringing this guy up. I really like how he tip-toes through his melismas, and thanks Killer, for posting those videos.

 

I guess if I had to critique myself, it was pitchy here and there. Probably should have warmed up first. It was fun anyways though, so I didn't want to do re-do it.
