but good job, i like the voice

...
written by dreamelectric , January 26, 2008

The rules say we were aloud to cover songs off American Gothic because iTunes, labeled all the songs under the Zeitgeist title.

Also, I updated the song, I'm waiting to re-upload it.

Very clean sounding!!!! Great Job!

American Gothic
written by Eye , January 26, 2008

Yeah I figured it was inevitable that someone was going submit something off of American Gothic, since it was packaged with Zeitgeist on iTunes instead of its own. So we pre-emptively opened the flood gates on that. I think someone was considering covering "Gossamer" but that was only performed live, so we had to say no.

beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!

Best one yet.

written by Guest , January 26, 2008

Nice job! I reall like it, but I was wondering what your recording methods are? I have been recording a few songs lately of my own, but the quality isn't nearly as high as this. Do you use a professional mic?

...
written by dreamelectric , January 26, 2008

For this I used a Shure SM57 and an MXL 990. I ran both mic's through a mixer.

Good Job
written by Event Of The Year , January 29, 2008

Your acoustic guitar sounds great.

...
written by GlassBR , January 30, 2008

Good, but, the voice is out of sync with the guitar...

...
written by dreamelectric , January 30, 2008

At what part are you referring to?

...
written by Teej212 , January 31, 2008

are you serious? the part when you say i lay roses at your feet is good, but you went to fast from that phrase to the till you decide phrase so the entire ending is not in sync with your guitar

the rest is awesome, just check out the end smilies/wink.gif

...
written by dreamelectric , January 31, 2008

I'll take another listen. Billy starts singing a little bit after the second time on playing the picked guitar part, so sang it later too.

....
written by Snail_Rocks , February 02, 2008

yep thats the only thing i could notice is that your a fair bit out of time in the closing moments at the "roses at your feet" part of the song approx 3:30 ...

other than that its pretty damn good man congrats

...
written by Guest , February 02, 2008

you rush the lyrics at the end

...
written by Guest , February 02, 2008

you did an amazing job!

...
written by dreamelectric , February 02, 2008

Alright, I fixed the end, give it a little time for the Admin to process it and change out the songs.

...
written by Guest , February 03, 2008

OTAKT OTAKT OTAKT!

great
written by AppleHead , February 11, 2008

did you record the guitar part with Billy's one? it sounds the same

Sweet!
written by TheChange , February 11, 2008

Dude, you should publish a tab of this. This sounds really accurate to the AG version of the track.

...
written by dreamelectric , February 11, 2008

AppleHead: Do you mean did I play along and record with the song? If yes, I did listen and play along to the song as I recorded it.

TheChange: Thanks. The only tab on the internet that I could find of this song was way wrong. So I pretty much figured it out by listening and watching live Rose March Videos.

Maybe Applehead meant...
written by Eye , February 13, 2008

that you recorded your voice with the original song literally. But of course you don't have one of the guitar parts and the drum beat at the end, so it's not a vocal cover, but a full cover. But perhaps they just meant what you said.

written by AppleHead , February 13, 2008

I simply meant "did you record the guitar part with Billy's guitar?" "Is it the guitar of the original record?"
Yours is very similar to the original one.

But your answer was quite interesting too smilies/razz.gif

...
written by Myopia , February 13, 2008

Very nice!

ok i vote for you
written by AppleHead , February 14, 2008

I've heard all the covers and I really prefer your cover. Your voice and your guitar light my heart up. But please be on rythm. smilies/razz.gif

Please Read

Hello everyone. There have been several complaints about the voting system. And after further review, some flaws were identified. My colleague, the webmaster for ThePumpkins.net, Jay (MurderMcMurderson) has installed some new security measures to help ensure more fair voting. And to help things along, we are starting fresh, so the voting is as fair was we can get it from the start.

Please recast your vote if have not already done so. Before you vote, please thoughtfully listen to all the Zeitgeist covers, and choose what you feel is the best cover. In all honesty, this contest should be an indication of how many feel a given cover is the best cover, not who is the most popular band, artist, or person.

If you have submitted something for the contest, please encourage your fans to check out all the covers before making a decision. You are welcome to mention that you have a cover up for the contest, but I am imploring you not to blatantly tell people to go vote for your cover.

I know we cannot control what people to tell their fans on myspace or anywhere else, but I am asking you to do a favor to everyone involved, and be as fair and honest as possible. In the scheme of things, I would hope that people would get more enjoyment from winning fairly, knowing what people actually think of their cover, rather than distorting the outcome to win a few CDs and vinyls.

take care,
David
