    Fucking hell, this is a good cover. The vocals tend to be the hardest part to get right, especially at the end where in the record Thom's voice hits that perfect pitch and it resonates in your head so well, giving it such a surreal feel. This does it just as well.
    Hell, this is probably the only cover singer I know that can give Thom's vocalistic style any sort of justice.

  • @mikemasse
    @mikemasse  14 років тому +63

    The audio is sent via firewire from my mixer to my laptop and captured in multi-track and mixed separately. Glad you liked the results!

    I'll have this played at my funeral; Not just the song, but this very video and rendition of it. The emotion, pitch and expressive tonality is perfect. And, the audio is perfectly captured. I'll make sure there is acceptable equipment available to faithfully and accurately reproduce this. Please Mike, never delete or alter this video. I've saved a copy locally but still by the time this all happens, maybe UA-cam will still exist and others can find this as significant as I have.

All of their covers are awesome, but check out Warning Sign and Tainted Love. Africa brought me to them, abut there was so much more to hear. They are truly amazing.

      Nope. The singer is a Public Defender and the bassist is a Deputy District Attorney. They've been playing there since the 1990's, the first Monday of every month. Mike, the singer, recently moved from SLC to the Denver area, quit his job and is now trying to focus on music full time. I hope he finds a lot of success because he is better than every musician, in every genre of music, that is currently signed to a record deal.

  • @debarchan123
    @debarchan123 5 років тому +3

    This is by far one of the best covers of the song. The voice captured the real essence of the song unlike the others where they go for a more booming voice and hence do not do justice to the falsetto part. Amazing work guys!

  • @AndrewSowerby
    @AndrewSowerby 13 років тому +5

    This is spot on. After listening to quite a few of your covers now, I've gotta give Jeff some respect - this song wouldn't really fly without the bass to help both underpin it and decorate it too.
    Here's to all the bass players ;)

    Guys I really hope you know that you really are the best covers act on YT. Some of us have been trawling through these pages for several years now and guys like you only come about once in a blue moon. Your grasp on contemporary music is awe inspiring and your vocal harmonies wedge themselves into people's memory. Quite why you guys have yet to break into the mass populous I find unbelievable but it must be a marketing thing, it's certainly not through lack of talent.
