three bangers this time...
5pts to mr @flying_pie love love love soad...
Splitting the other two Is hard tbh.
3pts to @stratman3142 - simply because it made me think of the cantina scene in starwars which I am now watching on dvd...
1pt to @IMC1980 - excellent as usual but just beaten coz of the cantina reminder...
Top work again all round... will hopefully join in again on the next one.
5 points : @IMC1980 - I think basically I'm becoming a fanboy ha ha. Just really well done and slickly produced, sounded great.
3 points : @flying_pie - really clever, and has sent me down a SOAD rabbit hole for the rest of the day.
1 point : @stratman3142 - its a really great version, and very well done, just the other two more in my current wheelhouse.
I'll give my 5 points to @IMC1980 and 3points to @stratman3142
It was very close. I loved the lighthearted feelgood of Stratman with some tasty licks as we've come to redirect but IMC just pipped him with a more laid back side to the usual impeccably produced hard rock
5 points : @IMC1980 : An epic bluesy rock version that builds well. Love the vocals
3 points : @flying_pie : Very imaginative and crazy. Solid tight guitar riffing.
Now where’s a modmin when you need one?
He's a seasoned pro and introducing him to the madness of the flying_pie could be a toxic drug he shouldn't be exposed to!
?
LOL. For a long time I've thought that when the song is right for it I'll be doing a G4/Il Divo version
Well done @IMC1980 and @flying_pie ;
At least I came second (or is that third)
Shoulder is still boorked but it’s liveable with so I should be in for the next one!...
if we get it going quick I reckon there will be a lot more “lockdown” entrants!!!!
IMC and I will each name a track in the hope that having a choice of two might drum up more entries for the rebranded Lockdown Cover Challenge
can we enter for both if we so wish?
