JACK JOHNSON - Drink the Water cover!!! (with vocals!)

Unread post by dmbguitar718 » Sat Dec 20, 2003 3:41 pm

I SANG!

Yes, believe it or not, I sang on this track. :shock: My voice isn't that great, but I make the best of it. (anyone remember my gravedigger cover? haha)

anyway, here it is...i had alot of fun with it. :) The vocals have too much reverb on them. i made a mistake (long story) and I couldn't fix it. :( So just deal with it. :wink:

The guitar is solid. The vocals are soft and muffled. Its hard to hear you. Not sure if it was the mixing or if you just sang too softly. What I could hear of the vocals sounded good though. Sounded like you were on key, but like I said its hard to hear your voice clearly. Good Job overall though.

at times your vocals are lagging behind the guitar, make sure you keep up a steady rhythm, keep the lyrics upbeat. The guitar is solid, i like that little second guitar part starting at 1:50. Id like to think that my cover inspired you to take on this song. I mean if a schlub like me could get decent reviews, anyone could.

Hey thanks, everyone. OK, now be honest...Is my voice really not that bad? because I've always thought I couldn't sing.
