This song became way too prophetic. I graduated in 2003 and for awhile, it seemed like every time I turned around, I was hearing about someone I graduated with dying, usually either from an OD or suicide. Your version takes a more melancholy view of things as opposed to anger and angst at the outcome, and really works well. Another great job sir, but your cover of Ruby Soho is still my fave
I can relate to this when I graduated in 2007. Heroine got the best of some people I knew and a couple to suicide. There is a lyric in "Song in my Head" by Madison Cunningham that reminds me a lot of this song. "I got my gold-rimmed diploma Wearing a square crown The class of fourteen wore their capes like A reverend's gown. All that education won't help us now Attending funerals and watching friends Break their vows."
this version is genius! this style fits perfect the lyrics
This actually matches the lyrics so well.
Nice work. Been a Offspring fan forever. Americana is a great album. By far my favorite song in their catalog is Kids Arent Alright. Great cover.
love your covers. you deserve so much success. Thank you
Thank you brother!
