So, here's another acoustic cover. Society by Eddie Vedder this time.
I love this song, mainly because of the lyrics.
This is song is from the soundtrack for the movie Into The Wild. Which is a must see!
Anyway, hope you enjoy it :)

Ahw, thanks :)

Lovely

I like (pretty much only listen to these days) sad songs, and this has a nice level of melancholy. I know it's a cover but i just want to say i really like the lyrics. The idea of society being lonely without him is poignant and is a nice non-cliche way of talking about seclusion. Because of course in reality, he's probably "crazy indeed" and likely to be "lonely" without society, not the other way around. Your voice really suits the song, and while at first i was little put off, i really got into it. I don't know much about guitar playing, but you sure got the job done. Do you record both at the same time? What mic. do you use? Any mixing/mastering/eq? Anyhow it was an all round enjoyable listen, great stuff!

First of all, thanks for reviewing :)
And yeah, the lyrics are really nice. They really fit the movie too (Into The Wild) where this song was written for.
The guitar playing is really basic, which allows me to sing and play at the same time. I use a Snowball mic for that. By the company 'Blue'.
And i cut off some of the higher frequencies and added reverb to make my voice a bit more bearable :p

Bravo

Really nice song, though it did make me feel a little sad. Keep them coming!

FairSquare responds:

Yeah, it's not a really happy song..
Thanks for the review! :)
