    Hey guys,
    Here's another cover as part of my 'unconventional songs' series. This time, I chose to cover Katy Perry's 'Firework'. The song has a great, positive message, and has done very well, recently.
    I truly hope you enjoy this video, as it's the last video from me in 2010! Wishing you all the very best for 2011, and thank you for all your support, kindness and friendship. It means the world over to me! Thank you!
    Peace, love, light, and God bless,
    Adam ;-)

    Katy Perry - FIREWORK - Lyrics:
    Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
    Drifting through the wind, wanting to start again?
    Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
    Like a house of cards, one blow from caving in?
    Do you ever feel already buried deep six feet under?
    Screams but no one seems to hear a thing
    Do you know that there's still a chance for you
    'Cause there's a spark in you?
    You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
    Just own the night like the 4th of July
    'Cause, baby, you're a firework
    Come on, show 'em what you're worth
    Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
    As you shoot across the sky-y-y
    Baby, you're a firework
    Come on, let your colours burst
    Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
    You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe
    You don't have to feel like a wasted space
    You're original, cannot be replaced
    If you only knew what the future holds
    After a hurricane comes a rainbow
    Maybe a reason why all the doors are closed
    So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
    Like a lightning bolt, your heart will glow
    And when it's time you'll know
    You just gotta ignite the light and let it shine
    Just own the night like the 4th of July
    'Cause, baby, you're a firework
    Come on, show 'em what you're worth
    Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
    As you shoot across the sky-y-y
    Baby, you're a firework
    Come on, let your colours burst
    Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
    You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe
    Boom, boom, boom
    Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
    It's always been inside of you, you, you
    And now it's time to let it through-ough-ough
    'Cause, baby, you're a firework
    Come on, show 'em what you're worth
    Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
    As you shoot across the sky-y-y
    Baby, you're a firework
    Come on, let your colours burst
    Make 'em go, "Aah, aah, aah"
    You're gonna leave 'em all in awe, awe, awe
    Boom, boom, boom
    Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
    Boom, boom, boom
    Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon

    @blorps123 Thank you so much, Romain! You are so kind! God bless you. I did almost freak out. I was very close to stopping, and doing another take, but I thought I'd roll with it in the end, as it'd add something funny to the video. :-) Thank you for your kind words, and hope you have a great week ahead! Happy New Year!

  • @AdamLeeGuitarist
    @AdamLeeGuitarist  13 років тому

    @ianlang21 Thank you so much, Ian! That's so kind of you - God bless you. And you can achieve this tone. It's more about how you play. I have a very simple setup. In fact, with the exception of this video, most of my videos use a typical rock amp. A Marshall DSL-50 / JCM2000 - I just use the crunch channel, use less gain, and turn up the master as high as possible, and then vary the sounds using playing dynamics and the guitar's volume / tone knobs. Not sure if that helps much. Thanks again! ;-)

    @TheJunaid14 Hey there - thank you so much! You are very kind. And yes, I have an acoustic that I play as well, but I'm definitely more of an electric guitarist. I'm more comfortable on the electric guitar as a whole, although I love playing a nice acoustic from time to time. Happy New Year, and thanks for the comment! :-)

    @ahab901 Thank you so much for that! I'll definitely take a listen. When I choose tracks for videos, I have to consider a load of different factors, and ultimately see if it's possible to make a good instrumental out of the song. So if I succeed with this song, then it might well end up as a video. Thank you very much, and hope you have a great weekend! :-)
