Nice Job... Here is a John Lennon cover I made.... I used Garageban, an Apogee MiC, and my J-50, a Gretsch bass, and a cajon.

That was THE BEST cover of a John Lennon's song I have ever met! Big congrats for this one, and I hope you have more. If you don't - please DO SOME!msp_thumbup.gifmsp_thumbup.gifmsp_thumbup.gif

If you start believeing

 

If you start believing tonight in Me

 

The night will start to yowl outside at the doorstep

 

That all darkness flees from Me

 

And every weep stills comforted

 

 

 

The Faith’s bitter wormwood

 

From My cup you will slowly drink

 

And your fears to the white I’ll wash

 

It will be evening, then morning - Day One.

 

 

 

You’ll drink to your heart’s content in that day

 

From the truth’s living water

 

And quiet light will spill

 

If you start believing tonight in Me

 

 

 

I will forget your infidelities,

 

I’ll give you My hand, I’ll rise you

 

And your wounds I’ll make Mine

 

For my son was lost and found

 

 

 

But you don’t fall yet on your knees

 

The one who believes fast doesn’t believe long

 

For the humans love to lie themselves

 

But the lie doesn’t have a wharf in Me

 

 

 

If you start believing tonight in me

 

Your life will diffract in two

 

Like a homeless you will rove

 

In a rush to a fairy motherland

 

 

 

And over and over again on your thorny pathway

 

You’ll cry alone over the infertile field

 

For the faith with tears is watered

 

And bitter is its hard fruit

 

 

 

Will howl the rooted in you beast

 

And till your death you’ll search for the Eden

 

But only death is what I will not promise to you

 

If you start believing tonight in Me

Magnificant ! [thumbup] Stunning guitar work. Did you use the J-200 for this song? It does not matter, whichever guiar it was it sounds superb. Nice voice - loved the overlay of the second voice - I wish I knew your language, this sounds like a terrific song. =D>=D>=D>

 

Yes, this is the SJ200. But there is no second voice.

Here I tried to translate the lyrics of the song above. These words are written by a friend of mine and he is a believer. In God.

oh... and really the voice in this record is only one - this is my voice. no harmony effects over it. only a reverb/delay.

Another one, collaboration original, brand new, in my language, older than yours (the language)

 

 

Friday

 

 

Have you ever collected a memory ona pathway

 

Crumb by crumb - a long day.

 

The grasses are women, the day is friday

 

And your laugh is blessed again

 

 

And every pain here is from a conception

 

Of a day in which the world is born

 

Afar from every saturday payoff

 

Abaft in a prayer time

 

 

You will need a lot of thirst

 

To lick the sharp edge of every mountain peak

 

And afterwards to stay by the river

 

To sit on the warmth moss

 

 

Where you always play in summer

 

But from a crow is your feather

 

The loved is hardening fast

 

The exiled gets back alone

 

 

To find you, you to look for it

 

And then you both to get hurt

 

You are sorrowful when you delude it

 

It laughs when you whist…

 

 

That way are laughing the old pathway,

 

The grasses and the burned out day

 

You would laugh too, but it is friday

 

If you cry your laughter is forgiven

 

 

And in the memory you always play in summer

 

But from a crow is your feather

 

The loved is hardening fast

 

The exiled gets back alone

 

Lyrics by Plamen Sivov
