You killed this one. I can tell you were really feeling it. Probably my favorite cover you’ve done so far.
side note: I wish I bought a t-shirt when I saw Duran Duran last year, but I was seeing The Cure the very next day so I was saving my money to buy merch there.
What a cool backdrop to your video! I thought it sounded good, well played. I think we are often our biggest critics. I know every mistake I make when I do a cover, that said, I didn’t notice any issue with your playing.
I agree with @Whying_Dutchman here. There have been plenty of songs with language posted and I haven’t seen a complaint. If I post a song that I think has excessive language I will post a little “content warning” in the post so someone can skip it if they choose.
Let’s keep the Motown rolling after 401Blues sweet cover of the Temptations…
Here is “Someday We’ll Be Together” by the Supremes. I recorded this about a month ago before discovering this post your covers! thread.
That was Supreme John! Let’s keep the Saturday night soul train rolling!
Forgot I was listening to a cover there. Great job @JohnF !
@401Blues nice work there!
@JohnF very nicely done!
Awesome playing JohnF! Great job!
Thanks, 401Blues! I think Tracks of My Tears will be the next Motown song I do. I have been working on What’s Going On at slower speed (85%), but there are 4 or 5 parts where the speed of play is so quick that if I record it, I’d have to simplify those parts…that song may be shelved for recording until I improve, but it is fun to practice.
@fennario, @Nebel and @JerryP …thanks for listening! After checking out a lot of covers on here, I htink the next step for me is to get an audio interface and learn how to use it.
Here’s a link to a guide that, some very amazing people on here did. I’m very bad at technical stuff, but with this guide here, i actually learned how to do it.
Here is something quick. i hope you all enjoy it.
Creedence Clearwater Revival - Fortunate Son
Thanks for watching.
Nice work @JerryP - good choice with the flats !
That’s cool, Jerry.
I had a go at this one a couple of months ago. What’s interesting is that we approached it slightly differently, in terms of the fills and the middle eight. This is what I love about playing, plus this covers thread - we all interpret songs differently, do our thing and have fun!!
Sting - Shape of my Heart
Ok, I found it unfair that my black Ronin gets so much love, so I rushed another cover today on Pink’s Hot. That’s also a heavily modified Harley Benton MV-4MSB, but with DiMarzio DP126 pickups instead of the EMG GZR.
For plugins, I just used Sonible’s Smart:EQ 4 and Smart:comp 2. Ran it’s “AI” and that’s it. Most important thing was to be true to the pickup tone. And I was lazy…
I’m still ill (can’t talk and have some fever), so that makes me kind of mellow - which explains the choice of the song (and me sweating like a pig ^^).
I did find that it’s hard to play a slow song. With just plucking away a fast song, it’s easier to mask your little mistakes. With this song it’s much harder, as you can focus on every f#cking note when listening. But I love the moments when I get it right, so that’s that!
There are some strange distortions at the end of the song, possibly due to ASIO buffer size. Sorry for that - I wanted to play that song once, make the video, upload it and then forget about it 
totally true.
Thank you Ed!
Thanks sunDOG!
I got the tab from UG and played it as it was written.
This was one I did by ear, then improvised some fills. All good fun
