that was damn sweet...
the guitars (rhythm and lead) were both very well.
Your voice was good Mitch, too bad that your mic didn't seem to be as good as you.
Sarah sounded good as well although the background vocals didn't fit 100%ly at some part.

I enjoyed listening to this very much. Thank you both for doing it. (It'll remain on my harddisc for sure)

jesus that was fantastic. you made that song seem like an orriginal as opposed to being a cover. everything felt comfortable to me... the falcetto was fantastic :) you guys did a GREAT job.

ditto, that was really sweet... Was all the guitar you Appfro? The lead sounded really cool, were those timmy fills ccuz it sounded awesome. Voices were both great. I actually think that sounded better than it does on BTCS.... not necessarily quality-wise, it just sounded like a better song/version. Really really cool. 10

thanks guys, the leads were truely improv, i made them up on the spot w/ no licks in mind. although i had to do a few takes, but i wanted it to be as close to liveish as i could so i dind't do many punchin's that's why a few of the licks are out and i think i hit a wrong note. all the guitar was me, but if i would have been thinking straight i woulda had sarah do some stuff. if sarah's background isn't on 100% it's my fault. im not a very good editer/mixer. sorry for that. but thanks for the comments.

Damn, that was pretty good, recording was a little hissy and not the best but the song itself was real good. Your falsettos are actaully pretty damn good, I liked the soloing too, god I wish I could do that, how do you people do it, just listen to the song and figure it out by fucking around? Anyway, sounds good, and Sarah, your voice as always is great, blew into the mic a little bit but its not that distracting. Overall it was real good, thoroughly enjoyed it.

AWESOME!! First off I thank you for covering this song cause I think it's one of his best. Second, I thought your falsetto was damn good. Yes it could have been a bit smoother but in general it was fantasitc. Those are hard notes to hit! Playing was great all around. My only gripe it the recording quality. I think you deserve a much better setup. It's really hard to accurately critique a song when the quality is poor. What I did hear was fantastic though.

Edit: I just wanted to add that I think your voice is chalk full of potential. I honestly believe with some dedication you really could have a performance worthy voice. I don't give the "your voice has potential" comment to just anyone. :wink:

Man, another sweet cover...you need to give yourself a little more credit with those falsetto's, they sounded pretty good to me. Solos were cool and sarah sounded great...have you guys done anything w/don't drink the water or stay...maybe even jtr?

wow... that was really well done...

oh and damn you for covering this before i did..:D

I absolutely love what you did with your voice at 01:48, that was incredible.
Sarah your parts were awesome. You've got a hell of alot soul that just oooozes out when you sing.
Just dont breathe on the mic so much.. :lol:

Apps, guitar was great too. A few odd notes here and there but overall better than i could have done.

hell yeah...another one for the apps folder!
