Redskynight, I love your "Senor and the Queen" cover! Like everyone else has said, you have a terrific voice. There's something about it that reminds me of Chrissie Hynde. Excellent job! I'm looking forward to "Bring It On"! Very Happy

Just seeing this now and I have to say, thanks! Chrissie's one of my heroes when it comes to music so I'm very flattered! Very Happy

The whole deal. My temporary Deaf ear might have thrown off my voice a little, But Eh...Struggle through and it still sounds good I think. I never listen to myself SIng.

Cool! You should listen to yourself sing, though. I mean, I'm not a big fan of my own voice either, but you can't better yourself as a singer, or musician if you don't listen back to what you've done. Or maybe that's just me.

I was about to write a similar thing , if you want to improve you really have to listen back to what you are doing, often you can think you are making a certain sound and when recorded it sounds kind of different , everybody hates the sound of their own voice but it gets more bearable the more you hear it back.
Thirding this.
I'm going to elaborate on this.

I think I'm a fairly decent singer and that I can keep my shit together in a recording session, but everyone makes mistakes. Listening back to a vocal recording, there's always a few bumps along the way, so I have to listen closely and find out where they are. It might not be the most fun thing to do, but I've done it for a while now and I'm getting used to it.

It's just about being honest with yourself.

It sounds good dude, but you should try to relax. I get the feeling you're overthinking the rhythmical pattern and it makes it sound kinda stressed.

Maybe next time you should play a song you know by heart instead, it just sounds better that way.

I knew it by heart...I just was not comfortable on the bridge, everywhere else I was fine. I think I might add Runnin on Empty to my Covers list...Just will not post the video here lol

Nice job, Jimmy! Very Happy Man, I love that song so much. It describes so much of who I am. I thought it sounded really good, especially when you loosened up a bit halfway through the song. That was great that you played the harmonica too! Keep the recordings coming, Jimmy!

Running on Empty is a fantastic song. Even though it's not Gaslight you could still post a recording in the Spam thread. Just a thought...Wink

I second that, the addition of harmonica was really nice.

Jimmy, that was your best cover yet! It seemed like you relaxed a lot more with that song and weren't overthinking what you were singing. Also, and I think this makes a huge difference, you sounded emotionally connected to Here's Looking at You Kid, and it came through in your voice. Very, very nice. And the guitar sounded awesome too! Very Happy

Just wondering.

It just sounds like you're kinda stressing the guitar, and you should relax a bit on the vocals. You constantly keep it pretty high and you should try to sing an octave down for some of the verses.

Well for some reason I really was having difficulty playing guitar today...I get those kind of days every once in awhile...and I try to sing an octave lower...I just think I fall off pitch too easy, Plus I can't hit notes, I just kind of sound flat.

How can that be when you've sung and played for 10+ years?

Voice lessons would help you with that.

I mean singing octave. I usually take the pitches from listening to the music, so trying to drop my voice down kind of results in flats where they do not belong.

I think it sounds awesome. No idea if you have access to this but I think it would sound great with pedal steel guitar or something. But it's great even just like this.
