Hello? I have never seen this video in such good quality?

if only I could strum my guitar correctly while singing

See, the nice thing about trying to learn a song on guitar means you learn to appreciate it in a whole new way, you get that sense of accomplishment like, hey, I can do that too now! The bad thing is that you wind up wanting to rip your ears off if you have to hear that fucking riff one more time

my top FOB basslines ranking goes like Sunshine Riptide > I'm Like A Lawyer = 27 > So Good Right Now > 16 Candles = Tiffany Blews > Hum Hallelujah but also that's just off the top of my head and based halfway on technical aspects and halfway on emotional attachment so it may be subject to change 🤷‍♀️

Today is a TAD day

Unfortunately, I am WAY too tired to be listening to The Amazing Devil in front of my family

i haven't played guitar or sung in a while. it's hard to sing when i'm in the fog. been trying the last few days.

these are not very good, but for the sake potentially not hating them when i listen to them a few months later, or even realizing that i'm doing better (mentally, musically)... here's some (really) bad covers. :'D

all unedited (and with loads of mistakes and off notes) because i couldn't be fucked. (just me, some mulled wine, badly strumming the guitar and bathroom acoustics). (please trust me when i say these really are not good. you've. uh. been warned).

(also please be warned that all of them have very depressing, teenage-angst lyrics lmao. these are just fun/easy to sing/play).

can never get the end/climax of this song right. beware of very.. questionable lyrics (that i messed up btw) lmao

one of my favourite songs to play because i love the simple chord progression and it's easy/comfortable for me to sing, even if i don't sound particularly good singing it. this take is way too fast and i fucked up the end. yikes.

gives me cramps in the hands (got a cramp at the end).

i forgot half of the lyrics and how to sing the latter parts ahahahaha. but otherwise i thought it was okay. i struggle with the high parts. (i did add reverb to this one). "everyone i love is gonna die" is prime edge.

yeah i know i don't sing this the way it's supposed to be sung. big whoop.

[meaniezuchinni]

Definitely not me, figuring out a good ukulele version of Gene's song "I don't need music", all morning...

[transgods]

searows songs actually hard to cover

[pmreaper]

okay so the recording fucking sucks and i never got one i was happy with but . song. lyrics below cut

You can’t teach an old dog new tricks Can you make me feel young? I can’t turn back into a child I never was one So reach into me and make me feel Like I haven’t before Claw at me and make me just break Strip me down to my core I’ll let you be my undoing So go on, and get moving Death is the only thing I know You damn fool, hurry up and go

i'm trying to learn jubilee line on guitar right now, and it's so rusty and there are some very obviously incorrect parts but like, i'm so happy with what i've been able to do so far

though it's taken literal months to get the little parts done that i have - even just finally getting the smallest bits done, or kind of close - it has been so so worth it
