Oh god, Eric Burdon's voice is just perfect in that song. If it comes on the radio, volume is going way up.

Apparently vocalists used to often use affectations when recording standards so that their version would stand alone, you can really tell that he's giving it a serious blast. Some vocalists would do it for flavour too, it's why I Don't Want to Set the World On Fire sounds so weird and awesome.
 
I was expecting to wake up and spend the whole morning catching up with this thread and expecting it to be well past 100 pages (100PPP) but mercifully it's not.
 
Been gone most of the day, I feel like i missed out.
Consider yourself luck that you weren't sucked in to the endless cyclone of posting patterns in this thread. It's been getting 'better' (i.e. less hectic) though.

Anyway, i'm off to bed too, despite the sun being in my face. Watch some good ol' Office and laugh my troubles away for another day.
 
I see that and I raise you Weezer covering Paranoid Android: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nTo8rjo-lM

Its hard to top, match, or even come close to such a distinctive sound as rh/yorke. But I must say, Weezer did a very good job as well as giving it their own Weezer flavor. I'd like to see the rest of the instruments stray a little further away from doing a carbon copy, but maybe next time.

This cover pleases me.

(folds)

The rest of the covers I dig are usually a combination of piano & female vocalist. like http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4LlyhrLEuI not worthy of a competition, but I still dig it.

wait...

RAISED.

My inspiration for owning a guitar, and..letting it collect dust. At the same time!
 
Holy god I've been watching footage of the first level of EVERY NINJA GAIDEN GAME on a loop for three hours

I hate getting excited for projects and then going nuts
 
Changing my avatar again because why not.

This time it's sitting in a bar in England with some friends. Here's the full picture:

whos down for unattractive avatar month next month?

Just saw your new avatar, wow you look a lot older then before. The old av was awesome though, brings back the memories. New one is good too, though.

thanks! the new one is just for this month though, but maybe i should put the duck back on my head and update the old one
 
Karaoke talk?

I spent two years in Korea; that shit is crazy popular over there, except it's called norae-bang (singing room). Walk down a downtown street, and you see them everywhere.

Every group gets a private room, which basically looks like this:

Couches, mics, a screen and a big book of songs with codes for each song. Most of them sell alcohol, and if not, it's the easiest thing in the world to smuggle it in.

Many a good time was had in these rooms.

Obviously Bohemian Rhapsody must be sung every time. My friend and I used to do a mean Forgot About Dre.



^^^ night..

and for the rest...

lets keep the music ball rolling.

Ryan Adams cover O Wonderwall.

Better than my cover version.
 
Maybe next week we could have a different theme for our pics for each day? Mad Monday (everyone looking annoyed or crazy), Terrified Tuesday (everyone looking scared), Well-Spoken Wednesday (everyone tries to look posh, top hats and monocles, etc), and so on.
 
Just back from Drs, I have an infection in my chest. The worrying part was when she looked incredibly concerned and said "If you deteriorate dont hesitate to call me back".

I really hope I don't deteriorate. Fuck knows where i'll be heading.

I read through the last couple of pages, but I seem to be the only one who prefers people's original 'real avatar' - Kitsunebaby, H.Protagonist. Girls, boys, and everything in between.*

Others like the new version so I guess, this view is redundant... :P

I basically put up the first 2 of 3 pics I took. And then asked gaf to choose between 2. Both were least worst apparently, so I'm gonna switch over once during half-time. ;)


*I say that but Billychu's third pic - that's a combination of the first 2 is kinda hilarious... :P
And sentry's is pretty cool as well.
