LISTEN to this cover of an old MTV mashup of Toxic and Faint sung by utaite fuku_wa NOW
youtube
#fukuwas been around for over 15 years doing his thing. wild to think about#but holy shit i hadnt check up on his covers in a while. but recently he did this one#and it blows my mind. i put it in a playlist that i forgot what i had in it (i make really large playlists and play em on shuffle LOL)#and when i heard the first part i was like ah yes faint i like this song i like the weird strings. only half paying attention.#and it wasnt until we got to the toxic chorus and i was like WAIT THATS NOT MIKE#really good impression of mike's. like. cadence? his flow!!!!!!! if ur not being distracted by the faint strings like i was#their voices have slight diff timbres plus different accents but like he had the flow down PERFECT#and in the choruses he gets chesters cadence and timbre wonderfully too especially in the part near the end of the bridge#the sort of inhaling growl in 'dont turn your back on me' was spot on#his voice is a little more broken in his screams and more melodic in the softer parts than chesters more like. fuller sound?#sorry for the random voice analyses. i am not a professional i just think like this LOL#but yeah blowing my mind. fuku_wa has always had a really versatile voice with a lot of control (LOVED his cover of two faced lovers)#(when i was a kid! its still probably my fav version of that song) but MAN i had to check to screen to make sure i didnt acidentally fall#into another universe where faint had the lyrics of toxic normally. i was so scared and confused. i like to do this#i like to scare myself by putting mashups and their source songs in the same playlists and forget about it. keeps me on my toes#Youtube
