Ok so apparently I am an awful accent-identifier...haha Regardless. It sounds fancier than what I normally hear, so I appreciate it all the same

Hi guys,
I am brand new to the site and wanted to post a cover my girlfriend and I did of She Loves You.
We did this one night in Logic, recorded all the parts in one take for fun. Let us know what you think! If you guys like it we'd love to hear what you think we should try covering next.

Not bad at all, dude. I guess in the choruses I would try to make the singing more dynamic, i.e reach some louder notes every once in a while, other than that a very solid cover. I enjoyed it.

Thanks, I tried to sing it more acoustic way even though we recorded all the instruments... but I'll do my best with the next one, which should be ready in few weeks.
I'm super glad you enjoyed it, means a lot that anyone took the time to give it a shot.
Thanks again

So I sat down to record a really simple cover of Have Mercy, i.e vocals and guitar in one track. I did do that, but then I added like ten layers of other stuff like pianos and harp drenched in reverb, choirs in the background, little bits and pieces here and there.

Selected Poems! But adjust the lyrics a bit:
Jimmy B, he say I got too much sympathy. But I can call him anytime... Jimmy B, how have I hurt you? C'mon tell your blues to me.. etc. etc.

Thanks, man. That really means a lot.
I've already distanced myself to the point where there's a million things I want to change about it, but I'm glad you like it.

^This. I'm usually not into fan-made covers of songs but you had me intrigued with the ten layers of other stuff, etc. so I gave it a listen and I'm glad I did. That was beautiful. I can't say if I like it more or less than the original simply because you really did make it your own, so it seems like an entirely different song. Really nice job.

You're actually getting better at singing, well done.
If I were to offer some constructive criticism I'd say chill out on the guitar, you need to be waaay more relaxed on that part. Also maybe you should try to find a key that your voice is more comfortable with, you do sound a little bit strained.

Well I did just get over a serious cold, so maybe that had something to do with it Perhaps.

I've heard you sing before. A cold isn't the issue, trust me.
